University
no ban on foreigners
by Elena Cacavas
ContributingEditor

Despite the continued threat of a United States’ Government ban
against foreign students at this University, administrators here feel
confident that such drastic federal action is “extremely unlikely” and
are looking to reassure students that “the University will do nothing to
jeopardize their positions here,” according to Foreign Student Advisor
Joseph Williams.
After over three months of detailed communication between
University officials and the Immigration and Naturalization Service
(INS), District Director Benedict Ferro, the threat of a ban surfaced on
April 29. The dispute can be traced back to University President
Robert Ketter’s refusal to open all foreign student files to INS
) V
investigatorst
, This brought Ferro into the fray. He told the University that the
files were requested to determine if some foreign students fraudulently
claimed they had the financial resources to support themselves while

compare the names of foreign students for whom tuition has been
waived withsdocuments detailing their financial resourses..

“It is hard to accept the fact that immigration could, in a sense,
ask ah institution to do investigative work for them,” he said. “Under
their stated reasons for wanting them, our records would not help.”
Williams has been steadily assuring foreign students that the University
would do nothing to jeopardize their positions in this country.
He explained that students who have approached him have
“expressed no undue alarm; more puzzlement.” The advisor said he
doesn’t anticipate that the ban will be imposed. “Students come to me
wanting clarification on the matter,” Williams observed, citing the
absence of “any unwanted hysteria.”

About 46 percent of students
questioned in a recent survey
conducted by The Spectrum
smoke pot once a week or more.
A total of 220 resident and
were
students
commuter
contacted in the survey, which
was aimed at determining the
smoking habits of students at this
University. Of the total, 177
students said they had tried pot at
least once.
Director of University police
Lee Griffin claims his department
has not made pot number one on
tl*e list of investigative priorities.
-We don’t go snooping behind
closed doors to see if kids are
using pot these days,” he said.
Fargo head resident Phil Samuels
remarked, “We do not allow
smoking in the lounges and to the
best of my knowledge it is not a
problem at all.” Clinton Hall
Advisor
Devon
Greenwald said, “A few suites
seem to smoke a lot of pot, but
overall usage has gone for die
most part unnoticed.” One
Goodyear Hall resident noted,
“We used to put a towel under the
door but now we don’t even close
it.”

Resignation gives
Sub Board options
Sub-Board I, the student sendee corporation will find
itself without an executive director as of May 15 when Tom Van
Nortwick resigns. Van Nortwick leaves to take a position with
WBEN Radio as business manager.
Sub-Board’s Board of Directors will meet on May 18 to discuss
a replacement for Van Nortwick, in the interim. Sub Board

Treasurer Dennis Black will take over his duties. Van Nortwick, in a
letter to the board, appointed Black as “Assistant to the Executive
Director of Sub-Board,” with all “authority and responsibility of
the Executive Director position.”
Although he lamented Van NortWock’s decision to resign,
Black said that he saw the resignation, “as a good opportunity to
examine our administrative needs.” Black noted that the Student
Association (SA) Financial Committee has recommended a $5000
*4* cut in its allocation to Sub-Board this year. The budget cutback is
forcing Sub-Board to “take a look at it’s expenses, including our
administrative ones,” said Black.
The alternatives facing the Board ofDirectors are: hiring a new
executive director; abolishing the position and have the Sub-Board
Executive Committee assume the responsibilities; expanding the
role of someone presently employed by Sub-Board and giving that
person financial responsibility; employing a part-time Executive
Director; or initiating a study of the position to be completed by
the end ofthe slimmer.
Black said that Van Nortwick will continue to help Sub-Board
set up the corporation’s' computer controlled accounting
procedures. Van Nortwick will also be available in the fall to help
interview prospective candidates if the Board of Directors decides
to hire a new Executive Director.

New leaders may repeat previously offered workshops or develop
new ones. Participants in recent programs have indicated that they
would like to see workshops in a wide range of topics including
tuba playing, camping, exercise and shorthand.
Workshops generally meet once per week, for 6-8 weeks, offer
no credit, are usually free of charge, and are open to the University
community (students, faculty, staff, alumni and spouses). However,
anyone may lead a Workshop and therefore be entitled to
participate in another one. The program is funded through the
Division of Student Affairs and Student Association. Workshops
allow the different members of the SUNYAB community to
interact and establish learning networks, and at the same time meet
new people.
Anyone with a particular skill or interest, who would like to
lead a workshop, should obtain a “leader proposal” from 110
Norton on the Amherst Campus. Your input is needed now, as the
upcoming programs are currently in the planning stages. The
deadline date for receiving summer proposals is May 26. Contact

personal ads in newspapers, singles

With more and more people
becoming disillusioned witlr the
pick-up atmosphere of bars and
discos, both men and women are
turning to commercial tactics to
seek fulfillment of their social and
sexual needs.
Last year, a man jn New York

of a wife. He posted his name and

advertising oneself is through the
personal column. Ads attempt to
be intriguing and enticing in as

possible.
“Attractive, exciting, intelligent,

qualities are stressed. Some are
explicitly sexual, such as “Have

a
desire

stimulation and companionship.

The survey covered a range of

The show must go on!
The Granada Theater, closed
since its lease was taken over by
the city of Buffalo Common
Council a year ago. is expected to
reopen
under
the
new
management
of VjCtor Mole
sometime before the end of this
month.
The theater was formerly
owned by Micheal Theater of
Long island, a pornographic
theater chain, but was confiscated
by the city due to mounting
unpaid property taxes and other
debts. The Common Council
voted last January to give title of
the theater to Lawrence Matter, a
local attorney, but could not
finalize the deal because of a
daim against property contained
within the theater. The claim was
recently
settled and formal
transfer of title is expected to
take place soon.
Mole stated that renovation of
die interior of the theater has
begun.-With all of the necessary
equipment and manpower either
here or in transit to Buffalo. For
example, new seats have been
locked inside the theater awaiting
installation. New curtains and
lights will be installed, as well as a
’

Dope

.T

.

The outside of the theater will

undergo a “complete facelift*’ and
have most of its windows
replaced, Mole said. At present,

die outside has been described by
many local residents as an
eyesore. Mattar has promised the
Common Council to recitfy this
problem, but has not decided how
the new front should look.
Mole renovated the old Riviera
Theater in North Tonawanda with
considerable success and now
manages the facility. He believes
the reopening of the Granada will
be “helpful to the community”
and will stimulate area business.
Owner Mattar has promised that
the theater will show a wide
variety of movies and sponsor
senior citizens’ programs as well.
At the moment, the sign above
the theater’s door says simply
“SOON,” but by May 24 the new
operater»'hope to announce the
new theater’s first booking: a new

In conclusion, students are
taking measures to conserve
energy in their homes, though it is
unclear whether these efforts are
based upon a desire to reduce
costs, conserve energy, or simply
use common sense.
It is clear that students who do
not pay their own utilities are
likely ta maintain a more

comfortable lifestyle, particularly
in their
apparel, than
those with monthly bills.to pay. It
is
also
clear that
those
energy-saving factors that are in
the landlord's control are more
likely to be present if the landlord
is paying the fuel bills.
Of particular significance is the
impact on fuel costs of energy

devices. The
effectiveness of insulation, storm

Special to The Spectrum

-

Criticism of the tenure system
has apparently been rekindled,
to' The Chronicle of
Higher Education, by-' some
controversial legislation recently
passed by President Carter. The
minimum mandatory retirement
age for most worken has been
raised from 65 to 70.
Critics say that this gives
tenured professors top much job
security and merely aids in
maintaining the existing academic
job market, which is poor.
However, since the new law is not
likely to change, many are
re-examining tenure to see if it
should change.
At
this
the
University,
minimum mandatory retirement
age has been at 70 for many years.
A sample survey of faculty
revealed that regardless of the
retirement age, tenure is still well
thought of, and necessary to the

you could forget about academic

One doctoral candidate in theSchool of Management said that
while security is necessary, it can
make on lazy, “Without it we
would be unable to enter
long-range research projects,” he
said, “but it can potentially turn a
University into a fancy nursery
home.” Admitting that the
present system is not stimulating
as it is, he added that any system
still depends on the individuals in
it.
When
asked
what
improvements could be made, he
suggested tenure on a progressive
basis. This would add competition
to the job situation and still
guarantee security during old age
until retirement.

Registered Occupational Therapist

Elizabeth C. Lawn argues that
tenure is extremely important,
not only as a safeguard for hard
workers, but because it gives the
teacher the opportunity to work
toward the future, devoting his
time to his profession, rather than
to searching for another job.
“Moving every six years is bad for
morale as well as productivity,”

said Lawn. She related the story
of pne teacher who, after 40 years
in the profession, was fired at age
64 because of old age. She was

knows former progressive rock
station WBUF, renamed B-93, has
radically changed its format. What
people don’t know is some of the
crap that transpired when people
were terminated from the radio
station.
Of course, there is an aura of
fear surrounding the new station
a rather typical thing which
happens to the personnel of many
radio stations when new owners
take over. People fear for their
jobs. But the fact that Robert
Liggett lied to every media person
in the Buffalo area last year mbs
every progressive rock fan the
wrong way. About a year ago, he
stated he would not change the
endearing, enchanting, innovative
BUF format.
He and his cronies changed the
station to nearly a WPHD type
hype format and right up to the
mpment of the change no one
really knew what would occur.
People at the station, with the
spineless union it has, were
legitimately fearful. The union
never could negotiate a contract
with then station owner At
Wertheimer.

Lies?
The new management at' the
in
particular
station,
Grant
Santimore the Station Manager, is
very nice, even sanctimonious, on
the surface. Santimore doesn’t
think the format has “changed
that much at all.” He also gives
rather mechanical answers to

“That had nothing to do with
it. We were merely trying to

All the jocks spoken to at the
station had different ideas. They

cannot yet analyze it in any means comprehensible to anyone but the
two or three persons with whom I worked most closely.
As that would be unreasonable and probably boring, I will write in
broader terms, terms to which normal students can relate.
The quality of a class depends on you and the teacher, and on the
content. The quality of a newspaper depends on many people
interacting simultaneously from the first phone call to the drive to the
printers. The content is ours to invent and shape. Such a thing as
objective journalism is "available only in limited editions" albeit that
front page news is often the tame in different pepert. So, whose side do
we take? Who it r&amp;it and who it wrong? Who makes sense and who is
telling the truth? Are students always right, is the left always right,
does anybody really know what time it it? Does anybody really care?
Just how do we students fit in to progressive social And political
awareness? So we should ask, without being asked. Obviously, some
students fit in and are more aware than others. But how much of that
awareness is applied within the University context, how much of it will
apply in the very near future of occupational hazards, and how much
of it will always remain in some people mere curiosity, something to
rediscover time, and again on television and in an occasional feature

Does a student consensus exikt today on any issue
from the
smallest negligence by the University to the New York Yankees to
nuclear disarmament to the death of Aldo Morb? 1 think not. We have
retreated into an age where the most enduring crises are personal ones.
And though we do share similar personal crises, the minute we leave
the sanctity of our homes, bur bars, or our telephones, the unspeakable
is filled by silence or betise.
And so, there is tittle call for a feeling of oneness, and so, so much
is not expressed in our repetoire of daily conversation. A sphere of
interaction is missing and no one can truly suggest how to create one,
many people and issues are going unheeded in'their efforts to
do so. Such should be the function of this newspaper, for no other
publication or printed work reaches as many people on this campus as
it does.

But I try to be a philosopher; sometimes it works and sometimes it
doesn’t. This year's editions of The Spectrum ran a full shift of subject
matter, from dormitory politics to freedom fighters in Chile. Failing to
establish a continuity between material and issues sharing a common
theme or history was often frustrating and disorienting, and probably

Editor's Note: The following is a letter from Joseph
Alutto, Dean of the School of Management, to the
Schools' students regarding the Management
program’s accreditation. The memo was precipitated
by an error in an article in The Spectrum

School had been placed on probation by an
accrediting body. The Spectrum apologizes to Dean
Alutto and all others concerned for this grave error.

considerable concern about the possibility of a loss
of accreditation for management programs at SUNY
Buffalo. 1 can state unequivocally that this will not
occur.

As general
background,
the School of
Management has had its undergraduate program
accredited since the late 1930s, and its MBA
program was accredited in 1971. The national
accrediting agency, the American Assembly of
Collegiate Schools of Business, noted in its 1971
review that the part-time evening Millard Fillmore
College program was deficient in the number of
full-time and doctorally qualified instructors
available to students. For accreditation purposes,
even though this program was not budgetarily
controlled by the School of Management, its
operation affected the review of all regular programs.
4n our 1976 five year review, while some progress
was seen, the continuing accreditation committee
observed that MFC was still clearly below AACSB
staffing standards. Furthermore, due to enrollment
pressures and limited faculty resources, our regular

(Probationary status means continued accreditation
for a less than five year period as well as the
monitored implementation of a plan to remedy
deficiencies).
As a result of enrollment reductions and the
addition of five new lines for MFC instructional
purposes, as of September 1976 the School will be

its

reporting of enrollment and staffing data in
September, program accreditation will be continued

with no interruption or assigning of probationary

Accreditation has been an issue of uncertainty
and intense interest for students, faculty and staff. 1
can assure you that we will continue the progress
that has led to our School’s ranking in MBA as one
of the best graduate programs in the Northeast and
inclusion in the 1977 Cart ter study as one of the top
thirty schools of management in the country.
Continued accreditation is simply one part of our
many efforts to improve the quality of programs and
the successful career placement of graduates. If you

process, please contact Arlene Bergwall, Crosby

the omission of any consultation with the staff of
the Gynecology Clinic at Roswell Park Memorial
Institute. The clinic has established a program to
screen women who might have been exposed to DES
ir. utero. Every six months, the woman is given a
thorough examination by a gynecologist well-trained
in the use of the colposcope. Initially, a detailed
medical history is taken, a pap smear, colposcopic
examination, and biopsy of the vaginal tissue is
performed, all of which involves no more discomfort
tnan a regular gynecological checkup. Upon revisits,
additional medical information is requested
pertaining to any changes in patient’s lifestyle or
medical history. The pap smear and colposcopy is
made at each visit but the biopsy is usually omitted
unless the doctor feels the visual examination
warrants a more detailed investigation. The cost of
this program can vary depending on the individual’s
personal medical insurance. However, since the
program is funded by a grant to investigate the
incidence of cancer in women exposed to DES, the
doctor’s services are a covered expense and are not
charged to the patient. Usually, the lab fees charged
are covered by Blue Cross/Blue Shield type
insurance. Women who think they have been
exposed to DES and are interested in this program
can call 845-5855 and receive further information
about making an appointment.

since around . 1871 (Paris Commune) the world has
been in a revolutionary upsurge. The great student
rebellions and Afro-American rebellions of the ’60s
were the response of the progressive people to the
crimes of the U.S. state, the tool of the monopoly
capitalists. The people of the U.S., including &gt;•_'

fascism, or of reactionary wars Of the stale. The

Revolution (I never said anything about putting

My point concerning Nixon: Given his blatent

given the avowed liberalism of this land
why was
Nixon elected, not once but twice, the second time

Why is this man making over a million dollars on TV
and text when this land is in such outrage over his
evil? Sick. Why do they buy his book? Sick. The
problem is not only of Nixon’s acts, but the sickness
of the vast populace that put him in a position to
accomplish these acts in the first place a populace
that had his record before them. The sickness runs
throughout the land, throughout this camp us.

Another year of fine music came to an end last
Friday with a mesmerizing performance by Oregon.
The UUAB Music Committee presented a variety of
top notch acts such as Santana, Jean Luc-Ponty,
Aztec Two-Step, Patti Smith and Robert Klein.
Though the quality of the music doesn’t leave me
dissatisfied, the way in which some of the concerts
were run does. The concerts held on campus were
consistently late in starting, forcing people to wait
outside the gym to experience the congeniality of
the Buffalo weather. Keeping warm was no problem
once inside, the place was sure to be oversold. Why
this had to be was the question asked by most music
committee members. Rich Saltus, the dictator-like
chairman of the music committee, consistently
found it necessary to oversell the concerts. Having
record attendance was more important to him than
the welfare of the students. The attitude of “fuck
the students, this is a business” should not be
adopted by the chairman of a committee funded by
student fees. At concerts such as Aztec Two-Step,
Jean Luc-Ponty, Robert Klein and the Folk Festival
paying concert goers felt the crush caused by Rich’s

The dishonesty and shiftiness of the Music
Committee Chairman is exemplified with his dealings
with The Pointless Brothers, a local Bluegrass band.
Rich asked the band to be the opening act for Aztec
Two-Step, two days before the show Rich told the
band to forget it. As for the contract; ha, ha, ha.
Apparently Rich was asked by the local promoters,
Harvey and Corky, to put on the group Fat Chance
instead. Whether The Pointless Brothers would have
been a better choice isn’t the point at hand. The
personal fgvors for other promoters for personal gain
is the point.
The fall begins a new year of music with a new
Music Committee Chairman. Hopefully next year the
Committee will be run more democratically and with
more consideration for the people who make it

Fair enough, up to a point. But, if carried too

IRCB apologies
To the Editor:
I would like to thank the University Community
for tolerating and forgiving IRCB during a turbulent
1977-78 academic year. This year we have went
through an inordinate amount of personal changes.
This caused our staff members to be unfamiliar with
their jobs, their co-workers and .student needs.
Coordination of information with advertising and
our established division was all but impossible with
this constant inflow and outflow of staff members.
Some students mistook our ignorance and lack of
coordination for high-handedness and ignoring
student needs. To those students, I apologize for our
lack of communication. Next year we will all have
had more experience, and are looking forward to
serving you.
Thanks also to this year’s management staff,
they helped to make smooth sailing over a very
rocky period in the history of
IRCB. Best of luck to
Uie graduating IRCB executives; Mike Fraegol, Ron
Terry, Keith Hill, Larry Repanes, Marty Staub and
Ken Strub. To next year’s staff
hopefully next
year will be, a much more pleasant
and enjoyable
year. See ya’ll in August.

all.

Ugly racism
To the Editor:
Mi.chell B. Nesenoff’s letter to The Spectrum
(5/10/78) was an appalling example of the moral and
intellectual bankruptcy of the Jewish Student Union
(JSU). His anti-Arab diatribes are unreasoning and
can only serve to foster misunderstanding and ill-will
between Jews and Arabs;*- t
.
t .
It is difficult for me to believe that Nesenoff,
President of the JSU, speaks for Jhe campus Jewish
community When he writes that “there is absolutely
nothing that any Arab student can say that is to be
believed.” This is pure and simple racism, which
Jews, of all people
victims for so long of damaging
racist stereotypes
should repudiate. As a Jew I am
especially outraged at the ugly racism exhibited by
the JSU President.

Happy Birthday Isrdel
To the Editor.

In his article “A Belligerent Israel,” Mr.
Musellem left out important “historical facts.” He'
failed to mention that when the U.N General
Assembly approved the creation of a Jewish State in
British Palestine in 1947, they also approved the
creation of another Palestinian Arab State on the
west bank of the Jordan. Thus making two
Palestinian Arab states and one Jewish State in
Palestine. Yes, two Palestinian States, you may have
forgotten that at the end of World War I, the British
rewarded East Palestine&gt;&gt;‘to_ a Saudia Arabian Prince
named Abdullah and made him King of
Trans-Jordan,
to rule -Palestinians. However,
Abdullah was not satisfied with this and would do
anything to make a Greater Syria.
On May 12, 1948, Israel proclaimed its
independence and was immediately invaded by 7
Arab States. You may'ask what happened to the'
Arab State on the west bank
did it proclaim its
independence? No, the main problem was that there
were a few ambitious Arab leaders, one being the
“Nazi Loving” Grand Muft of Jerusalem, who the
British wanted for murder and another being Kind
Abdullah of Trans-Jordan. To make a long story
short, the Arab Legion, Abdullah's army, were the x
best soldiers at the time in the area, having been
trained by the British, armed by the British and
commanded by the British. With such a force,
Trans-Jordan was able to
the west bank
with not too much effort,
'C
Mr. Musallem also did not mention that there
were Jewish refugees that were “forced” to leave
with most of their belongings confiscated and many
were killed. Most of these refugees were resettled in
Israel Israel did not force the Palestinians to leave,
except in isolated incidents, but asked them to stay;
even after the war the Israelis asked the Palestinians
to come back and live in peace. However, the
Palestinians listened to their Arab brothers, who
said, leave your homes, we will push the Jews into
the sea and you will have more land, the Jews did
not listen and are now blamed for their problems.
Also most of the land the UJN. partitioned for a
Jewish' State, before its invasion by the Arabs, was
“owned” by the Jews. It has been estimated that the
Jews paid 20 million dollars for the land in the
partitioned Jewish State; this land was malaria
infested swamp land and desert. Most of the
so-called “Palestinians” moved in to Palestine in the
past 100 years, after the Jews started making the
land workable, “rented” the land from “rich
absentee landlords” who lived in Beirut, Damascus,
Amman, Cairo, etc.
Why didn’t the Palestinians make a homeland on
the west bank during the 19 years it was Jordinian
territory? Ask them!
Mr. Musallem, also wants a secular democratic
State of Palestine. Does he. mean like the so-called
democratic Arab States that are in existence now,
like Syria, a one party, one man dictatorship; Iraq,
military dictatorship; Jordan, an absolute monarchy;
Saudia Arabia, an absolute monarchy; Egypt, one
partly, one man dictatorship; Libya, military
dictatorship. Should 1 continue. Lebanon, the only
Arab country with some type of democracy, has had
it destroyed in recent years by the Palestinians.
Genesis, Chapter One, Line 1:
One last point
it sayS, 'in the beginning G-d created the heaven and
x earth. 31nce G-d created the earth, its his land and
-he can give it to whomever he wishes. G-d choose
and Isaac and Jacob to own the land of
Israel and their children still have the deed to the
land, even though they were exiled from their land
x by force.

This year much attention has been given to the
move to the North Campus. As a result 1977-78 will
be remembered as the year UB moved to Amherst.
So much attention has been given to the move that
many smaller events have been overlooked or
ignored completely. However, several of these events
are just as potentially important to the University as
the move to Amherst.
One of these changes was the official return to
campus of fraternities and sororities. Although over
seven months have passed, little notice has been
given to these organizations. As a result, many
people on campus are still unaware of the presence
or function of fraternities Qt^ororities.
Most of the information people have about
fraternities centers on the physical abuse of pledges
during hazing. Unfortunately The Spectrum saw fit
to contribute to the confusion by running a story
concerning the death of a pledge to some small local
fraternity located in the Southern Tier. It is unfair to
assume all fraternities engage in such activities. The
fact is most, if not all, fraternities at UB function
under a set of guidelines which prohibits the physical
abuse of pledges.
Even though some people on campus know
fraternities and sororities exist, few know why they
exist. Many people have come to associate
fraternities with beer blasts thrown by Tau Kappa
Epsilon. .However it would-be a mistake to assume
throwing parties is the only function of fraternities.
Fof instance, at the dance marathon sororities
and fraternities sponsored a total of five couples.

And few people are aware of the fact Tau Kappa
Epsilon plays a vital role in the blood drives on the
Amherst Campus. Fraternities and sororities have
also demonstrated their ability to effectively
the
represent
the needs of students to
administration.
■ t
Yet despite all the possible benefits gained from
participating in suchgroups, few if any people look
into the possibility. Many people assume that
sorority or fraternity life isn’t for them. I am sure
more than a few of these people could benefit by
getting involved with the community and University
through one of these organizations:
Unfortunately due to a lack of information,
many people feel these groups don’t belong on
—

&lt;•

campus.

However, I feel many people at UB could
benefit by taking an active role in a sorority or
fraternity. I think people on the Amherst Campus
could particularly benefit. Many of the problems
associated with the Amherst Campus «an be
attributed to the separation of students from the
community and each other. I am sure active
sororities and fraternities will be able to offset both
trends.
v This year will probably be remembered because
UB moved to Amherst. Hopefully, it will also be
remembered as the first year fraternities and
sororities returned to serve the needs of the students
at UB.

Somehow, somewhere along the line, in the
darker recesses of Jay Rosen’s mind has loomed,
with gargoylesque figure, a macabre rendition of
political analyst. Yes Rosen the new investigative

sense to old stale news. Jay Rosen stale reactionary.
Why hail Wr. Rosen seen fit to attack one of the

what has twisted in Rosen’s mind to make him

“self-style.”
Michael Levinson is as bothersome as doors that

Simply stated Levinson is a part of the school he is

writing lacks imagination, creativity and insight
this is his problem. He should deal with it. Attacking
the few good things/persons on this campus in the
hopes of painting a pretty picture of one of the most
ineffectual, least visible, least articulate “student
leaders” this University has suffered with in a long
time, seems to this observer a pretty humdrum way
of excusing the excesses of a fellow hack and at the
same time expanding an already narrowing field.
What we want to see here is a public apology
from Mr. Rosen. What jk want to see is a
re-evaluation of the Leverendum. What we want to
see here is more imaginative and stylized discourse
and less, less of this, this, this how dull we say

Stephen Levinson has an awareness that this

Rusty agony
To the Editor

Through this letter, I would like to address all
students, faculty and staff with the intention of
reaching those to whom this letter applies.
Ij notice all • over both campuses (especially
Amherst) that people think they’re doing everyone
else a favor by decorating the landscape with bottles,
cans, paper, etc. You name .i, it’s there. Why? Do
you think that throwing things aside *eliminates the
problem of having to dispose of them? Is it too
much of an inconvenience to carry a can to a trash
receptacle? I|ow about a gum wrapper or an empty
cigarette package? Are these too heavy or bulky to
dispose of properly?
Aside from the fact that little causes eyesores, it
poses a health and safety problem to humans and
animals alike. Many know what it’s like to step on a
rusty nail or cut yourself on broken glass from a
shattered bottle. But do you likewise know what
agony animals can go through when encountering
some of this refuse? Birds and fish find shiny objects
fascinating. When a bird dives after a tab top from a
can it may wind up with a “nuzzle” around its beak,
ultimately starving to death. Or a fish may swallow

one and choke or bleed to death. Or a fish-preditor
may ingest one from one of these fish. Or maybe a
duck which manages to get its neck entwined in a

plastic six-pack ring and strangles or starves or breaks
its neck v is harassed and killed by a dog or other

animals. Funny, the way concepts of such
consequences can avoid entering people’s minds
when they “instinctively” litter.
Trends of society may have conditioned us
when no-return bottles originated in 1959. Soon,
no-retum this and disposable that flooded the
market, with just about everything being packed or
bottled in one-way cans, bottles, styrofoam and
other various containers made of plastics and other
hydrocarbon derivatives, all of which can be termed
noh-biodegradeable. All this was probably meant to
be a convenience to consumers, without considering
the all-important environmental effects. Well, the
honeymoon is over. Litter is no little problem but
one which can be overcome very easily. So if you see
that ahipe inconsiderate slob threw something where
it doesn’t belong, take an extra ten seconds and pick
it up. Believe me, it will be appreciated.

Stardom laid in Brookes lap

"Pretty Baby'doesn't prostitute art of cinema
-A

by Joyce Howe
Spec turn Am Staff

Louis Malle's first American f\\m, Pretty

Baby is not an artistic attempt to cash in
on the current child pornography craze but
a successful attempt at visual poetry. It is

both a series of lush color photographs
framed by an ornate story, and a statement
on
man's moral
ambiguity. Malle
( Lacombe
Lucien; Murmur of the Heart;
Black Moon among others) takes us into
Storyville, the notorious red-tight district
in old New Orleans, just before its demise
at the hands of the U.S. Navy in 1917,
Under the artist's spell, we are made tp see
humenity heart and soul immersed in
the world of bodily* pleasure. Malle's
camera is a witness to the contradictions of
human reality.
,

—

—

Beauty and purity

An embodiment of these contradictions
is Violet, the 12-year-olif’daughter of prize
prostitute Hattie, herself the
of a
whore. Played by the mush publicized
Brooke Shields, Violet is a child/woman
who doesn’t question her existence.
Growing up in a bordello is perfectly
normal to her. She is anxious for the
chance to attract her own portion of the
many respectable men who make up the
clientele. When the day arrives, Violet is
ceremoniously dressed in white and carried
into a room full of men on a large platter; a

Immersed in the worldof bodily pleasure
sparkler fizzing in her hand. Her virginity
extolled, she is auctioned off by the

grotesquely world-wise madam, Nell, as
"the finest delicacy New Orleans has to
offer." Close-up shots reveal the faces of
the men filled with awe, a reverence at
Violet's absolute luminescence. She

represents the beauty and

purity lacking in
their own existence.
The screenplay by Polly Platt is based

anyone wanted to hear about them. More
unfortunate was the fact that no one at The

anyway) cared
to take any of that new wave biz seriously. Instead
they preferred to bask in left field with the New

�Loved Women'
a source of embarrasment
Spectrum Artt Staff

The Boys i#i

The opening scene in The Man
Who Love Women takes place at
the site of the protagonist's
funeral. An endless entourage of
lovely legs file past to pay their
last respects to a man who could
never "get enough." Francois
Truffaut's latest film is much like
our initial discovery of The Man,
Bertrand (Charles Denner)
and our final
devoid of vivacity
reaction is that we are the ones
yyho didn't get enough. Truffaut's
portrayal of a man who devours
women with an insatiable hunger,
as if they were a required daily
substance, seems more skeletal
than leftovers.

he pursues some shapely legs. The
final irony takes place as he is
recuperating in a hospital, when
the familiar sight of a nurse's legs
sends him toppling off the bed,
leaving him fatally floored.
However,
earlier and
dominant tone robs these final
moments of any comic force. As
with most of The Man. the mood
here seems gut of place, and is
detrimental to the film as a whole.
Tryffauttells the story through
flashbacks, alternating narrators
between Bertrand as a child,
Bertrand as a grownup, and the
woman
who publishes his
memoirs. He films Bertrand's
childhood scenes appropriately in
black and white. The director
suggests that Bertrand's need for
the numerous affections of
women is related to his mother's
vampish ways. This pat Freudian
explanation is less
than
convincing, although Truffaut
evidently finds it sufficient.

&lt;.

Much ado
A few other themes are
haphazardly thrown in, but they
too are poorly detailed. He lamely
introduces the notion the
Bertrand's sexual appetite is a
means -of assuring his own
identity. And by writing h(&gt;
memoirs, Bertrand'tries to leave
behind his history or legacy. His
mother walks around half-clad, we
are told, just to convince herself
that her son doesn't exist. And,
last but not least. Bertrand dreams
he is a mannequin. All of this
effort to depict the character's
abscence of self-hood seems to be
much ado about nothing. As a
character, Bertrand couldn't be
more transparent if he were the
invisible man. Unfortunately, the
film's scars are obviously and
poorly bandaged, becoming a
source of embarrassment for a
great' director like Truffaut.
Hopefully it will fade quickly
away.

The Gentle Art of Criticism
Friends tell me J'm a sucker for
long goodbyes. I've never noticed
this myself, but I suppose they're
right When the time pomes to say

goodbye, I'm usually the one with
the small grin on his face who's
standing
somewhere in the
distance, thinking about how nice
it is to be here and trying to come
up with a good excuse for staying.
I'm not much good at leaving
because leaving implies that things
will be better when and where one
arrives; I always manage to call
the shots wrong about the future.
Joan Didion orice wrote that the
future always looks good in
southern California because no
one ever thinks about the past. I
don't think it works that way
everywhere. The fact is that for
many college seniors, the future
looks, at best, uncertain. People
who treat college 'a/t anything
other than a vocational school are
learning hard and fast these days
that they don't fit so easily into
this great American system of
ours, that they are without a
career in a land where the career
often defines the person. Perhaps
it's not so strange, then, for
people such as these to notice
how good things are just when
they prepare to leave them, how
comfortable it suddenly feels to
be in a place they kept telling
themselves they would never quite
adjust to.

But my intention here is not
self-indulgence nor a tirade against
the American educational system.
I have titled this piece The Gentle
Art of Criticism so that I might
bow out gracefully.Teaving behind
some thought and proposals
which I hope I have li\/ed up to. If
in the process of bowing out I
lean too far towards tirade, well,
we careerless Americans have to
get our ticks in somewhere.

they say, as if movies were like
expensive foreign cars they're
afraid of breaking.

This kind of defeatist attitude
worries me. It worries me because
if people can't go to an art event
with the security of their own
beliefs, if they can't walk out later,
with the willingness to put their
reactions on the line, then art is
fullfilling its purpose.
not
terribly
Something has gone
wrong somewhere. I cringe every
time I hear someone say that a
movie or a play "was good, but it
was over my head," We seem to
forget that art is supposed to say
something, that it involves the
trading of thoughts, ideas, and
feelings between
artist and
audience, not from the artist and
to the audience. Reaction and
understanding
are essential.
Communication without the free

reaction and
understanding is nothing more
than propaganda. And yet, for too
many people, art is exactly that.

anyone and everyone as he does
for himself. Unfortunately, the
large disparity between critical
and box-office successes as if
exists now only helps to foster
animosity on the part of the artist
to his audience, and vice-versa.
But it may sound as if I am
calling for everyone to give up his
ideals and take what comes at him
with open arms. I am not. Bad art
is bad art.

It is how the critic

Most importantly, he must be
able to maintain that fine balance
between praise and disapproval.
Only by being supportive of the
arts can the critic be influential in
the way he ought to be. And only
then would the arts be, in fact, for
everyone.

It'll blow your mind!

The critics are partly to blame
for this situation. They, too, seem
to forget that there is an audience
out there which should be spoken
too. The worst kind of criticism is
the kind that puts the critic first
and the art last, that turns the
critic into, heaven forbid, the
object
of his own review.
Nevertheless, one need only to
mention the names of the most
influential critics to discover

This, his first group appearance in Canada, is yet another first for
Abdullah (Brand's chosen name is Abdullah Ibrahim). His
prowess as a musician flows rich African lifawatars which reveal
many of the prime roots of American music. From his debut in
this country via Duke Ellington to his many solo piano classics
(the Sackville LPs are two prime cases) and his recant successes
on Inner City and Chiaroscuro (esp. Cape Town Fringe), we have
a man in control of the sky/earth spiritual dancing in the streets
a new day recitalist borne in traditions older than most dreams
in this land. His upcoming LP on Chiaroscuro, The Journey

Abdullah will be on piano, soprano sax and flute; Talib Kabr

The Hounds. Unleashed (Columbia)
From a look at the cover. I expected this to be
yet another regional outburst, another punk on the
wagon, another eheap exploitation of The Sex
Pistols, The Ramones. Iggy, etc. I could never have
been further off the track. The Hourjds, from
Chicago are closer aligned with more conventional
teenage pyrotechnics. In other words, these guys fall
into the same categorial traps as The Dictators, Judas
Priest and Van Halen, displaying a similar passion for
post glitter and qualude overdosage via high wattage.
Neat huh?

as the Army would have one

There were
mistakes, or as the Army says,
“deficiencies.’’
Although
outnumbered 21 to 1, the
terrorists (pirates) incurred less

Screaming Eagles. The theoretical
results were 30 Eagles dead, as
compared to the-PirateS 16 dead,
2 prisoners aqd 1 escapee; the
escapee originally designated as
being the terrorist leader.
One suoh mistake stemmed
from frogmen- who were dumped
on the wrong beach, recalling that

The Department of Recreation, Athletics end Related, Instruction
(RARI) has begun interviewing candidates for men’s basketball coach
and although RARI officials aren’t talking, it is widely believed that
die front runner for the position is former UB star Norb Baichnagel.
Baschnagel was seen talking with RARI Chairman Sal Esposito last
week while watching a UB baseball game. At the time, Baschnagel
commented that he was just making a “social call.” Tuesday, the
Buffalo Evening News quoted Baschnagel as saying, “I think I’m one of
the top candidates.”

Three candidates will be interviewed. Fredonia State coach Bill
Hughes is another candidate, and the third hopeful is unknown at the
present time. Hughes had a 15-9 record with the Blue Devils last year.
Baschnagel lost once
Baschnagel, currently an assistant at Clarion State College,
graduated in 1965 after a stellar career at UB. He became assistant
coach here, serving under then-basketball coach Muto. When Muto
resigned the coaching position, Baschnagel and Leo Richardson were
candidates to succeed him. Richardson got Muto’s job and Baschnagel
was made varsity tennis coach.
One year later, Baschnagel was offered a position as assistant
basketball coach at Clarion State and he accepted. Richardson
remained as basketball coach here until RARI decided in March not to
renew his contract for next year.
According to the Evening News, both Baschnagel and Hughes
expressed some fears about the current situation at UBl Baschnagel is
seeking assurances of support by %

Richardson felt he never received. "I have a number of questions
before I even consider the situation.” Baschiiagel said.

&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;

Special session possible

College Council plans
to investigate Ketter
by Daniel S. Parker
Campus Editor

The UB College Council decided Monday to fonnally study the

performance of University President Robert L. Ketter and hold a

special unscheduled session
possibly this June
to present the
results of thfc inquiry and contemplate a vote of “merit” or
“non-merit” on the President. Monday’s session was slated to be the
last Council meeting until Septemtf r.
This reversal of last month’s Council decision not to investigate
alleged disenchantment with Kettle was spurred by the presentation of
Scott Jiusto, Chairman of the Student Association (SA) Presidential
Review Committee. Jiusto outlined die committee’s findings and
explained SA’s vote of no confidence and subsequent call for Ketter’s

Council member Robert Koren explained that at the last Council
meeting, no documentary evidence of disenchantment with Ketter
students ‘Vat serious enough to
existed, but Monday’s
warrant action.” He noted that the end result of the investigation could
take the form of a “merit vote, a no-merit vote, or a tabling motion.”

Setting precedent*
The Council’s decision to undertake its own inquiry came after
Cynthia Whiting, the non-voting student representative, proposed that
a committee comprised of Council members, faculty, students, and
.professional union representatives be formed to evaluate Ketter’s
performance. The proposal was ruled out of order by Chairman Robert
Millonzi. He said, "We have been appointed by the Governor for a

Before Mott spoke Millonzi remarked, “I don’t want to Jet a
precedent (allowing students to speak in firoiit of the Council}; This
input should come frpm die student representative."
Whiting, who quake with Millonzi over the weekend and arranged
the student appearances, responded, “It is essential, not just important,
that students be allowed to come before us. I think we should set a
precedent."
Millonzi countered by saying, “I don’t want it written in stone
that this is the absolute way for the future.”
Whiting, who is only the third student ever to be a member of the
Council, objected to Millonzi’s portrayal of her as merely a conduit of
student views. ‘Tm also a Council member who listens to reports*with

quite simply want

Ketter out, and have taken active
steps toward that end.
However, it fully appears that
the President will complete his
second term of office, which runs
to ‘1980, without any serious
threat of removal. Though the
current controversy has knifed
deeply into Capcn there is no
reason to believe that Ketter has
seriously considered resigning, or
that the Stale has any intention of
precipitating the same. This does
"of mean the storm will blow
completely over, ■ the skies will
cl ear and the President will cruise
securely into the 1980’s. Quite
the contrary. There is little doubt
now that Ketter has abandoned

Housing questioned

by Tom Rosamilia
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Despite the cries of outrage that were heard within the offices of
University Housing last September, some students may find themselves
in permanently overcrowded rooms next semester. Although housing
officials say that there is no greater chance of this occurring than last
year, more students will be granted University housing than space

permits.

According to Director of University Housing Madison Boyce, 4556
spaces are available in the dormitories next semester for an estimated
4636 applicants. In an effort to insure that all beds will be used, 160
people wfll be provided housing beyond the number of beds available.
r
The 160 people will be temporarily “tripled,” or assigned to rooms
that normally accommodate two people instead of three. The concept
behind “tripling” is that once the “no-shows” (people that requested
housing but never took possession of their rooms) have been
pinpointed, their rooms are assigned to the 160 people that are the
victims of tripling. “The aim of our policy of short-term planned
tripling and overcrowding is servicing as many as possible and
inconveniencing as few as possible,” said Boyce. 1

Tenuous predictions

The 160-figure is arrived at based on past experience that three to
four percent of the total number of applicants for University Housing
are “no-«hows.” However, Housing officials have allowed for a very
small margin of error according to SA Senator Scott Jiusto, the author
of a critical study on the misuse of facilities space in the Ellicott
Complex. Jiusto says that roughly 20 persons could find themselves
trapped in permanently overcrowded conditions if the full four percent
of the total number of housing applicants, or 185 people, show up and
only about 162 extra spaces are provided to accommodate the
overload, Jiusto has requested that Facilities and Planning investigate
and see how much office space in the Ellicott Complex could be
consolidated to make more space available for additional housing
space.

The major problem in making projections about University
that some students entering the University for the first time
are not admitted until quite late. According to Director of Admissions
and Records, Richard Dremuk, it is possible that some students “could
be admitted right up until the day classes begin.” Presently, between
2800 and* 3000 freshmen*students and no less than 1500 transfer
students are expected to enroll by September. Additionally, since there
is no centralized admissions policy for graduate students, it is very
difficult to determine the exact number of incoming graduate students

Although about half of the incoming freshman class is from the
Western New York area, an estimated two percent of this group may
request University housing, in addition to the preponderant number of
students from out of the area or out of state who usually request
housing. Working with such incomplete and tenuous figures, the task of
University Housing in making projections is thus complicated

Those returning students with the most semesters in University

'~Jt

by Lori Braunstein
Staff Writer

Spectrum

A good year
The faculty student ratio is now above accreditation standards
according to Management Dean Joseph Alluto, and the new plans have
been submitted and approved by the Accrediting Association. With the
addition of the new faculty members, the student-faculty ratio will be
about 25 to 1. “Our target for two years from now is a student-faculty
ratio of 20 to 1,” said Alluto. In addition to adding faculty, enrollment
has been limited to decrease class size.
“We have had one of the best recruiting years of any of the major
schools in terms of numbers and quality,” maintained Alluto. He is
optimistic that class size will drop and that the School of Management
might be able to offer seminars that it was unable to in the past.
Graduate class size will also probably drop as a result of the new
professors because the Management faculty is required to teach at both
graduate and undergraduate levels. This, Alluto asserted is “because
everyone is part of the school-community.”
Over the last few years, the School of Management has lost an
average of two to four faculty members per year. This year has been
different, however, as only three have left. The Accounting
Department lost only one of its faculty members (due to death) in
contrast to its recent average loss of three per year. The Other two
faculty members that left the School were from the Departments of
Management Economics and Management Systems.
One of the school’s biggest problems has been raising the standards
of its night program in Millard Fillmore College (MFC) to those of its
day program. “Almost all of the MFC management courses were taught
by part-time faculty and very few professors with doctorates,” revealed
Alluto. “PhD’s from the School of Management will now teach some of
the MFC classes.”

Five -new faculty lines will be granted next fall by the state
Division of the Budget (DOB) to the School of Management in
response to an external accrediting team’s recommendation to hire
more qualified instructors, according to Vice President for Academic
Affairs Ronald Bunn.
The School’s accreditation was placed on probation two years ago
and has been in question ever since. The American Association of
Collegiate Business Schools, which conducted an evaluation of the
School in 1971, determined that there were not enough full time
professors with PhDs for the number of students enrolled.
An internal review in 1976 revealed that the faculty-student ratio
had not improved significantly and the accrediting team consequently
granted the school two years to correct the situation or face the
possibility of losing accreditation. As a result, three faculty lines were
generated last year through reallocation of funds within the
department and three additional lines were transferred to the school
from the Millard Fillmore program. New professors were recruited
from schools including Texas University, MIT and Northwestern. Five
additional professors will be recruited by September, Bunn said.

Funding for the improvements will come from a variety of sources
faculty turnover, additional faculty lines and reallocation of existing
monies. “This turnover of faculty is typical of-schools of management
because of the great number of jobs available in the field,” said Alluto.
MFC is also paying for some of its improvements.
Chairperson of the Management Systems Department Edward
Wallace is generally pleased with the three new additions to his
Departments. “Obviously it will help, in terms of quality,” said
Wallace. “One of the additions to our,staff is a chief executive officer
of a major corporation and his experience will benefit
considerably.” Wallace sees the main improvement in the School of
Management as “increasing the quality of- the new staff, not the
—

reduction of class size.”
Alluto, who said he is confident of the School’s future, said that
University President Robert Ketter’s recent claim that he would “steal”
from the University endowment fund to guarantee the School’s

The current “Ketter” flap is directed at the

Council's call of duty

wrong target.

The College Council has wisely decided to assume a role
in the investigation of University President Robert L.
Ketter's performance. We feel this action is not above and
beyond the Council's call of duty, but rather a responsibility
that it should not only accept but welcome. Although we
surely are not comfortable with the heavily-skewed make up
of the Council and, like everyone else, nor Clear on just what
if the state
duties are "written in stone" for the body
insists on retaining such an assembly, we see no reason why
Council inquiries like this one should not be expected by the
University community.
Just how the Council intends to go about the
investigation remains unclear. If it simply relies on material
sent by faculty, administration and staff, Ketter's supporters
will probably swamp the inquiry with richly laudatory
Opinions on the President, wha is clearly gaining sympathy
in circles such as the UB Foundation and Alumni
r
*?•
Association.
No less reprehensible would be the Council seeking out
malcontents in the faculty, administration and student body
for their grievances against Ketter. An appropriate balance
must obviously be struck to provide the Council with
representative input from all comers of the University.
The Council should also be mindful of its own
orientation. While most of the disenchantment with Ketter is
centering around his academic leadership and
internal
administrative style, the President has maintained consistent
external appeal among business and community leaders. He
almost always has been respectful, cooperative and open
with Council members. Care must be taken to insure that
Ketter's relatively smooth working relationship with the
Council is placed in proper perspective, for it is a unique
one. No other group which interacts with Ketter operated
within such a vertical power structure. In this respect, the
Council is in a special position to both criticize the President
and be influenced by him.
,
Finally, Student Association (SA) leaders along with the
student representative to the Council, Cindy Whiting, should
be applauded for bringing the issue before the Council and
forcing the body to deal with it in public. Without their
efforts, the Council would probably still be begging off-on
Ketter. Special mention goes to SA again and to NYPIRG's

The

Spectrum. Jay Rosen’s concoction concerning
discontent in President Ketter’s
widespread
administration is substantiated only by a single

source; that of the American Studies Program’s
Director, whose proposal for a PhD program was
previously denied. The. articles printed at the
beginning of this semester were not capturing the
readers’ attention, but does Rosen have to resort to

1 attended the Student Senate meeting last
Friday, with Ketter at the podium. The impression I.
received vvas of a man cool tinder pressure, brilliant
with catagorization of data and figures, and
confidence unshaken even when the most sensitive
and private issue of his ability to lead is under
attack. References and statistics were the replies to
vague questions using cliches such as'“quality of
life” and “visions.” A paradox noted by Ketter was
that in the recent controversy lie was accused of
losing his ability to lead, all the while he is being
described as authoritative, with dictatorial
tendencies. Where are we supposed to stand Rosen?
Apathy is a plague in this University. Perhaps
it’s due to the lack of issues truly earth moving and
of direct effect (t.e., Vietnam, Watergate). But when
we students get involved, it. gives us such an
exceptional “high,” my hypothesis, then, is students

are jumping on the bandwagon to see how much of a

stir we can muster. Overenthusiastic airs dominating
an issue should be left to “hotheads,” not University
students.
It’s common knowledge that Rosen is a biased
writer (Spectrum, Friday 21, p. 21), what is he doing
as the Editor in Chief! Yes, he’s done the job of
getting readership, but the scar that’s left is hard to
heal.

critics believe, is that Ketter is willing to assert his

“Be happy. It’s your first day in America and
already you’ve found a job.” But as she cried other

ice and she wanted to go home.
So begins the story of a friend of mine.
Three years ago, she left Poland to come to our
country. She had high hopes upon arriving in the
richest Country in the world. Yes, like so many other
Poles she came here expecting to find happiness and
salvation. She had been told that our streets were
paved with gold. And she -half believed it. With
expectations like these, perhaps it was inevitable that
she would be disappointed.
The first time 1 visited her my bicycle was stolen
(chain and all) by some of the teenagers in her

worse ones for her. Twice now, her apartment door
has been smashed in by thieves. As a result, fear is

Perhaps it’s tfee .language barrier or cultural

that Americans are , dead inside. Not fully
understanding Vietnam or Watergate, she laments
our lack of national pride. She says, “It’s much

Instead of the things that dfeamsare made of.
my friend has encountered an America that is fat on
consumerism, numbed by the assemblyline, addicted
to corruption and violence, and populated by lonely
people who live day to day without hope or

My friend is critical of the quality of life here,
yet, like so many of us, she is a contradiction in

Keep WSC on Wimpear

'

To tHe Editor:

&gt;

As the semester comes to a close it is time for
many dormitory residents to return their rented
refrigerators to Inter-Residence Business Council
(IRCB). As recently posted, the return dates are May
7 and Hay 13. These date* arc two weeks and one
week respectively, before the scheduled closing of
,
the dormitories.
.‘•c
r;
Upon looking at the return times, only three
hours are allotted per day in each area (Mam Street,
Governors and Ellicott). Is IRCB forpming the
needs of the students after a hefty profit as reported
in The Spectrum this semester?
As 1 recall last May, IRCB extended all contracts
(free of charge) to two days before the closing of the
dorms. Each return session was six hours in length to
compensate for the volume of refrigerators. I called
IRCB to inquire as to why the early returns this

Looking at my contract I noticed a discrepancy.
I signed a contract that states that I can use my
refrigerator until May 17. (The same contract that I
am sure many other students signed.) Since the
contract is a legal document, I intend to return my
refrigerator on May 17. I urge all students to wait
until this date if possible. We pay enough for these
refrigerators; we should be able to keep them until
the expiration date. The management of IRCB
should get off their high horses and remember that
they are a student service and supported by

students!

It has been brought to my attention that the
Collegiate System has proposed a move of the
Women’s Studies College present location, 108

Winspear, to the first floor of Townsend Hall.
The move to Townsend Hall would inhibit the
growth of the College (approximately 1000 square
feet less space): The hall is located in on? of the
darkest, most inaccessible areas of the Main Street
Campus. This proposes problems when considering
the safety of women involved in late night activities.
A primary goal of the WSC is the involvement of
Buffalo community women. An on-campus location
would discourage this important Interaction. Unless
major alternations are made, Townsend Hall does
not have a large capacity meeting room vital for the
College’s regularly scheduled activities: collective
meetings, governance, various presentations, pot luck
dinners, discussions, drop-in center, lounge.
The current house occupied by the WSC is
located off-campus in a safe residential area. Women
from the community participate willingly. Besides a
large capacity meeting room, 108 Winspear offers
several small meeting rooms where the primary work
of the College it taken'care of, a resource center is
located, and the student-faculty class preparations
ate nude. The boose also offers an area for children

that there is no Arab student at SUNY at Buffalo

This past Thursday people .from across the
nation gathered at Kent State to commemorate the
deaths of four students eight yean ago on that
fateful Campus, h was the peak of the anti-Vietnam
h'i oftii-.v- TPif period when consciousness of the violent
imperialist nature of the American capitalist system
was high- Students demonstrated daily in brave
opposition to the greedy racist and genocidal policies
of the bougeois state. The capitalists whose vested
interests lie in war and oppression, were trembling, so
they called in their guardian dogs, the National
Guard, to. put down the students. The. murder of
four students whose only crime was their love for
humanity was the result. The murders at Jackson
State followed soon after. The Guardsmen said it
was self-defense shooting people in the back. But
their lies were as precedented as the shootings
(police repeatedly use violence to end labor
disputes)!
The students"would not be forded or quieted.
The memory of Kent State till today inflames the
hearts and anger of those who see the war the
capitalists are waging against minorities, workers,
and students.. That is why the University
administration who have always been one with the.
capitalists (as Ketter is here at U.B.), seek to
desecrate and neutralize the site of the tragic deaths
by constructing an athletic facility there. But this
tactic as well as that of prohibiting leafletting and
the-use of bull horns only makes us more aware and
more aroused to overthrow the reigns of capitalism.
So when protestors gathered in the student union at
Kent State last Thursday, May 4, after the
demonstration, police surrounded the buddingbeating up and arresting people. Our own Brian
Webster, a political activist from Buffalo, was
brutalized by these armed dogs of the state and
subsequently arrested. Bail was set at $5500,'later
lowered to $2000, while local bail bond licenses and
pawn broker licenses were revoked tq hamper the
release of the political prisoners. It was practically
marshal law Thursday, with arrests being made for
hitchhiking, jay walking, vagrancy and any other
charges police' could concoct. If you are wondering
why you haven’t heard anything about this on the
news, it’s because per usual there has been a
complete white-out of these events in the bougeois
' ■'
press and media.
Money is desperately needed for Brian’s bail. If
you have any money you could donate or lend
(returnable after the trial), please send it to: Brian
Webster Defense Fund, C/O C. Segal, 71 Hill Street,
Buffalo, N.Y. 14214; or call 837-8535 (Suzanne) or
833-9136 (Cindec).
Thank you for your support.

Cnmestoppers program: jarring the memory
•

by Can Webs
Spectrum Staff Writer

It happened on October 23,
1972, in the outskirts of Buffalo,
the murder of Jeffrey Kadell. For
six years the files of the crime
have remained open; so far no one
has been charged with the
homicide. The police have hit a
dead end in the case.
A new television program,
Crimestoppers, now dramatizes
major unsolved crimes that have
occurred in the Buffalo area.
Every other Sunday, one crime
from the past is re-enacted on
WKBW-TV (Channel 7) and is
then featured in the Buffalo
Evening News.
“The people hold the necessary
information for solving these

crimes,”
Newswoman Susan Banks who
anchors each presentation.
“The most effective method of
reaching the public is through the
media,” claims Lieutenant A1
McDonald of Central Intelligence
at the Buffalo Police Department.

All important facts and clues
are explained in order to give a
complete picture of. the crime.

community service,” says Banks.
“The crime factor is a major
reason for people moving out of a
community and the city needs
help with this problem,” she said.
“It’s good publicity for the
station,” Bill Nailos of WKBW
admits, “but what’s important is
to keep people alert about what is
going on around them.”

convictions In homicide, rape,
armed robbery and burgulary
cases have resulted. Over a dozen
fugitives have been arrested;
$503,000 in stolen property and
narcotics has been collected.

In 1971 and 1972 Aiberqueque
ranked in the top three U.S. cities
for number of crimes per 1000
people. “Since the inception of
the program every month the city
has seen a marked decrease in
crime,” reported MacAlesee.

MacAlesee claims it is not
unusual for a Crime to be solved
within 48 hours. For one rape
case, 24 phone calls were received
the very night the case was aired.
All of them checked out, except
for the 2Sth, which came the next

Apparently
the rapist
was
watching TV with someone when
his crime was re-enacted on a

amazing resemblance the drawing
had to his TV companion and
how nervous his companion
became while viewing. "A phone
call was made and when the man
was picked up he was wearing

crime. The woman positively
identified him in a police line-up

Mark “Spanky” Vitale picked up

“Kenmorc stayed with us for

Hanson commented after that

Buffamonte started the season by
seeing little action, but came up
with two goals and an assist
against Kenmore. Besides scoring,
Buffamonte moves well without
the ball, aiding the flow of the
offense. Ptak, who sees little
action in mid-week due to Dental
school commitments, came up
with outstanding performances in
both the Saturday and Sunday
games.

Baseball BuUs lose
doubleheader, 7-S, 2-0
The death knell rang long and loud Monday for the baseball Bulls
as a 7-5= 2-0 doubleheader lots to Cornell University all but ended
Buffalo’s 1978playoff hopes. The Bulls, now 22*19, would have to win
all eight of their remaining games to even be considered for post season
play. Second baseman Pat Raimondo (.39 J-) was home with the flu.
Big righthander Phil Rosenberg worked ten innings in the
doubleheader against Cornell in a last gasp effort to keep UB in
contention. While Rosenberg and freshman Dennis Howard held
Cornell to two runs in the second game, the Buffalo bats were lifeless.
The Bulls got only three hits as they were shut out for the first Jime
this year. Sophomore lefty John Jameson was in control all the way.
getting the Bulls to pop up pitch after pitch.
Catcher John Pedersen’s throwing error let in the first run and
infielder Gary Caczor singled for another as the Big Red got all the runs
.
it needed in the third.
Hit hard
Don Griebner was hit hard in the opener, allowing five first inning
runs before giving way to Rosenberg in the second. Buffalo rallied for
four.in the.second but, the Big Red scored two more in the third to
take a 7-4 lead.
•Mike Groh, Jim Wojcik and Joe Marcella all went two for three but
the Bulls fell short
UB lost the opener 7-3 Sunday as Ithaca’s Chris Demattio blasted a
three run triple off lefthander Joe Hesketh, keying a four run sixth for
the Bombers. Shortstop Marcella and substitute second baseman Mike
Morlock each made errors, helping Ithaca to five unearned runs.
Down 7-6' in the nightcap, Buffalo exploded for eleven runs in the
sixth, winning 17-9. Tri-captain Groh, five for six on the day,
two hits in the inning. Phil Ganci had a three-run triple in that inning
and Pedersen stroked three hits for the game to help reliever Howard to
the win. Greg Fisher started for Buffalo.
The Bulls play two against Niagara today (Peelle Field, 1 p.m.) and
Canisius Saturday. Doubleheaders against Buffalo State and Canisius
still remain to be rescheduled.

&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;

SA Execs vote to
freeze SA budget
by David Levy
Campus Editor

The
Student Association
Executive Committee perplexed
over a estimated $19,000 deficit
has “frozen” SA’s budget for
of
the
the
remainder
organization’s fiscal year.
A
The unanimous decision was
reached Friday afternoon after SA
Wawrzonek
Treasurer Fred
—

estimated expenses of $30,000

and a cash balance of only
$11,000 as of September 1. The
freeze, will require Wawrzonek,
President Richard Mott, or
Executive Vice President Karl
Schwartz to approve all spending
by SA clubs and organizations on
art
basis.
item-by-item
Wawrzoneks projected expenses
include
salaries for office
personnel,
stipends for SA
officials, freshman orientation,
and budget money for SA
expenses running from September
through October.
Wawrzonek also said the deficit

could- be traced to g nebular
“wtipiatcd other income” figure
of $6,760 in the current budget
that was never received.
Wawrzonek called the expected
income a “fudge factor that was
carefully included in the budget
to make the figures come out.”

Wawrzonek originally asked for
the “freeze” after next week but
SA Vice President for Sub-Board
Jane Baum raised the specter or
like
organizations “spending
crazy" before it took effect.
Schwartz supported Baum by
noting that any “freeze” would
have
to “go
into
effect
immediately so that doesn’t
happen.”
Wawrzonek told the committee
that SA funding for organizations
wpuld not be cut out altogether
but that any allocationa“would
be looked at carefully.” “If an
organization wanted $300 for a

by Jay Rosen
Professor of Biostatistics Irwin Bross has asked that a vote of “no
confidence” in University President Robert L. Ketter be taken at the
May 15 meeting of the graduate faculty?
Bross, in a May 1 memo to Acting Dean of Graduate Education
Charles Fogel, proposed that “due to fears that this administraion
would be vindictive,” the vote on Ketter be taken by secret ballot.
Fogel told The Spectrum official agendas for the meeting had
already been sent out, but that, as chairman, he would not discourage
any debate and subsequent vote of no confidence in the President.
Fogel expects “only about 50” faculty members to attend the meeting.
Thus, he said he would not consider a vote to be “at all representative”
of the faculty as a whole.
"I certainly don’t want to ■ turn off any discussion,” Fogel
observed, “but I would not consider it [the vote] an official action.”
Professor Bross was harshly critical of the University
Administration, vowing to “present a specific case of no confidence on
the grounds of mismanagement.” Bross called this year’s rental of
Ridge Lea facilities “grossly mismanaged” by the Administration. And,
Bross claimed, “there are a lot of other people who regard the
-continued on ov* 10—
administration’s actions as ridiculous.”

Approved by FCC

Spectrum

Staff Writer

The sale of radio, station WBUF (FM 93) to Robert Liggett of
Tri-Media Broadcasting has been approved by- the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC), and all those ch-ch-changes that
v;
werf iearcd last year have begun to go into effect.
•
lost listen to the radio. “B-93, Buffalo’s Best Rock" announces
the end of a 15-month struggle to save progressive radio music in the
Buffalo area.
Program Director Skip Edmonds echoes the intent of new Station
Manager Grant Santimore. “We are cleaning and polishing the format,
in a prodess of fine-tuning the station, but people obviously can’t go
looking for what it (the format) was.”
Last year’s protest was, in part, a response io an vout-of-towner’s”
bidding for the station. Liggett and Santimore are from Michigan,
though the Santimore has since moved into this area. It Was feared that
local public interest or public affairs information would be lost.
Indeed, the only “locally owned” Buffalo radio station is WBLK,
whose owner resides in Depew.
Santimore reports that the station still plans to serve public needs,
and that he has retained the majority of personnel. He and two others,
Jeff Applegate and his wife, are the only three employees.
The air sound of B-93, however, has been altered quite a bit. John
Farrell has been switched to part time, while evening man Phil Chordas
has left the .station to do promotional work for Amherst records. Part
timers John Miller and James Braun were relieved of their duties
effective the evening of April 30.
.

!

Format change
Edmonds feel that “fine-tuning” of the format will take time, as
the station tries to appeal to “different forms of a number of people.”
Previous Arbitron ratings showed BUF’s listeners to be predominantly
male in the 18-35 age group. The biggest scare progressive music
lovers have had since the threat of the $700,000 sale last April was the
plan to go to a “contemporary music” format.
A programmer of the new playlist informs that it represents a
“distinct change.” The dee-jays no longer have control of a progressive
format; rather the station has direct control of the new format: This is
completely opposite to what the new owners, have said.
‘‘The'drop-ins stop the flow of music. There are only two tunes at
the most without a voice," John Miller; referring to the B-93 tag, which
reminds one of that technological brainchild Rock 102.
Edmonds, however, feel the new owners are very
■n Miller, and
level-headed. upfront, and very nice. “These people are very good at
what they do, and they are very reasonable,” Edmonds stated. Station
Manager Santimore would like to hear from “anyone” on how they
feel about the station.

Progressive death
In a Spectrum Guest Opinion last April, Bob Allen, the man
responsible for initially changing BUF to a progressive format, warned
of the impending wrath of ’’Liggettizing” BUF. The FCC received over
1,000 letters from concerned listeners protesting the sale. When ABC
network news was included in the format last Spring many thought, or
hoped, that a compromise has been reached. But this April, without
the publicity of the year before, Liggett purchased the station from
Functional Broadcasting. Thirty days later, the result can be heard.
There are presently four commercial breaks per hour as opposed to
the previous three; and a higher influx of national-spot ads, such as
CleaTasil and Midol. All this has gradually seeped into BUPs format,
but the sharp musical change in the past week has confirmed the death
of BUF, $ome say.
' \
There are those who feel the new people at B-93 should “have
faith” in the progressive format. While B-93 continues to build for a
new audience and a definitely more professional sound, the progressive
audience must hold its breath and wait, as Edmonds suggested, and
“see what the end result is.”
&gt;

�Bunn sees Biological
Sciences integration^

&gt;

The two divisions of Biological
Sciences should be integrated into
a single department according to
Vice" President -for Academic
Affairs
Ronald
Bunn. This
directly contraducts a recent
external evaluation report made
by a panel of distinguished
scholars.
The Department of Biological
Sciences, which consists of ■'fiqll
and
Molecular (CMB)
and
Environmental and Organismal
(E/O), ‘has been the subject of
numerous
over
controversies
rumored personality conflicts and
inequitable allocation of funds
resulting from a split between
research and teaching monies. The
outside evaluators addressed this
problem and concurred that long
standing fridfion exists, but “that
—Jenson
should not impair the functioning Or. Om P. Bahl
of the department and the two
Chairman of Biological Sciences
units should remain separate with
each unit having the status of a

division.”
Bunn, however, felt that a the faculty and “several additional

The course, despite an increase
in the course requirements in
order to limit enrollment to
serious students of research and
methodology,
large
attracted
numbers of students and was
offered for two years. According
to Allen, it was “a learning
experience for Solkoff and myself
as much as for the students.”
Since one instructor lacked the
expertise, of the other’s field, this
was a chance for both to study
and learn from one another. “The
first time die course was offered,
we were paralleling each other in
our
contributions
and
conclusions;” said Alien. “The
second time we offered it, there
was more integration and the
results were more satisfying.”
Allen felt that traditional
historical theories and approaches
about the Holocaust needed to be
he*
enrijch,ed.
Nevertheless,
believed that his role was to guard
the integrity of historical theories
and concepts which were often
psychological
crucial
when
explanations fail.
A purely historical analysis
often fails to explain why so
many millions of lews passively
accepted persecution and death.
There is ; no lack of information or
documentation on the subject;
however, Nazi records merely
reflect their own prejudices. Since
they v considered their victims to
be sub-human, Jewish passivity
simply confirmed what the Nazis
believed. Even the heroic conduct
of the leaders and participants in
the Warsaw ghetto uprising could
be rationalized as the actions of
an insane and murderous Jewish
rabble, according to fanatical Nazi
beliefs.

nature of the Holocaust lies less in

the behavior of the persecutors
.and more in the behavior of the
victims. Alien says that in spite of"
the power of Nazi propaganda,
anti-Semitism was only reinforced,
not intensified. “The fact that the
Nazis failed to persuade all of the
people to accept their genocidal
policies,” he said. Nor were hie
S.S. guards and other personnel
ever forced to kill. “This was One
of the myths that was dispelled in
the course,” stated Allen. “They
all had a choice. None of them
were coerced Into following

Solkoff is primarily interested

Sulkoff finds that the survivors

psychological syndromes. In some
respects, these syndromes torment
children of survives more than
the actual victims. In attempting
to explain and analyze the
Victim’s psychological responses
to his conditions and treatment
within the camp, Solkoff became
interested in Nazism as a
psychological
phenomenon.
Finding
the psycho-analytical
literature of this historical period
deficient, Solkoff suggested some

At the same time, the victims
surrendered themselves into the
hands of their persecutors with
little or no resistance. Solkoff
believes that this passivity, this
willingness to cooperate, has its
Origins in deeper, psychological
causes. He cites such factors as the
victims’ identification with the
aggressor and “psychic cues that
stimulate aggression.” Solkoff also
emphasizes the enormous feelings
of guilt, and fears of persecution
which burden many Jewish
survivors.

Above all, the genocidal
policies of Hitler were purely

Genocide has long existed in
human histoiy. To this very day,
genocidal policies are being
carried on in many countries, such
as Cambodia and Uganda. Yet the
Nazi extermination policies were
conducted on a larger scale and
more
systematically
and
than others and
efficiently
therefore became more infamous.
Allen believes that two conditions
must be present in order to
prevent genocide from recurring;
social justice and a set of absolute
moral values. He cited that during
the war, Denmark may have
possessed those conditions as the
underground resistance forces
protected and led the Jews out of
the hands of the Nazis.
There are presently no plans to

totally untrue. The colposcopy exanrir is painless and
only takes about 10 minutes. There ft absolutely no
need for anesthesia. As for the price, it is about sixty

that there is no cancer, or if there, is, to detect it

course load, the administration Is narrowing down
the amount of in-depth research a student may do in
certain areas. ‘Maybe Ketter feels that by students
taking five courses instead of four we will not have
the time to investigate and question what exactly
does go on in Capen Hall.
In dealing with students, Ketter has repeatedly
shown his disrespect and disregard for us and our
needs. His attitude at the Student Senate meeting
was both srtide and rude. He went as far as to
deliberately insult Cynthia Whiting, former College
Council rep, by calling her ignorant of the facts “as
usual.”
The various issues raised by the SA report in
relation to Ketter’s handling of student mandatory
fees again shows his unprogressive attitudes and how
they affect us. Because Ketter interprets the Board
of Trustees guidelines in the narrowest sense he has
restricted activities which would be beneficial to the
student community.
This is seen through his treatment of the
NYPIRG contract. Even though the Presidents of
five other SUNY schools allowed their SA groups to
enter into contract with NYPIRG (under the same
guidelines), Ketter feels this is a totally inappropriate
use of student mandatory fees because it is a
political group. I assume that political interaction is
not an educational process to Ketter.
He also objected to Group Legal Services
because it was beneficial to the individual and not a
“student service.” In dealing with the Pharmacy and
the Record Co-op, Ketter has continually attempted
to take the power away from the students and give it
back to the administration. Because of his
conservatism, Ketter not only defeats programs
which are beneficial "to the students, but also is
trying to slowly and systematically usurp our
foundations and power at UB. Another factor is his
denial of a student’s right to learn through actual
experience when he mandates his interpretations.
His decision on the Day Care Center gravely
affects women’s rights to a quality education. How
sexist and conservative can a President be? By saying
that “there is nothing'that says a pregnant woman
must Conte to the University” shows that he has a
total disregard for the ne#d of women to be
educated. Maybe he feels yfe jhouid just stay home
and be “barefoot and pregnant.” Ketter’s decision
on the Day Care Center is a blatant violation of the
right to an education
are University Presidents
supposed to vjjprk in this manner?
All my impressions were had from just sitting in
Haas Lounge for three hours and listening to the
man who makes the big decisions. His conservatism
will reach every aspect of the University and will
ultimately be its downfall. How can a President
remain closed to new ideas and innovations if he has
the responsibility of maintaining quality education?
How can conservatism enrich and enhance our
educational institution? In order for our lives at UB
to be worthwhile, our programs, both academic and
non, must be progressive and open to change. Here,
we have an atmosphere which is static and slowly
getting very stale. Whom else should we look to for
solutions but the President? But, how can we if he is
■the problem?

To the Editor.

For the first time during my two years at UB, 1
had the chance to witness Dr. Robert Ketter’s
presidency. 1 was impressed with his articulate,
highly statistical and glib way of presenting himself.
After a while though, it became quite evident that
Dr: Ketter also, had the ability "to dodge questions
and pass the buck. Ketter did not answer one
question or allegation fully and just the same
managed to

sound'credible.

He does this very well. Nothing anyone can say
would change his conservative way of dealing with
our education. As long as Ketter can puU an
interpretation from here or a statistic from there, he
feels secure in his answers and looks no further.
Finding security in pursuing a “strict Constructionist
interpretation’’ (SA report) of all SUNY guidelines,
Ketter gives the University Community a very
narrow path to step upon. To add to his philosophy,
Ketter surrounds himself wifn a bureaucracy Which
can, at times, make him inaccessible to students,
faculty and his own administration.
There are so many offices and vice presidents in
Capen HaB that it is a wonder the University
Community ever secs the President. Ketter can
arrange circumstances in which he is never seen but
his wishes are carried out by his top administrators.
The forced resignation of Dr. Telfer from Facilities
Planning is indicative of this. I personally
encountered a “never see’* situation as Editorof The
Buffalonian. When asking Dr. Ketter for an address
to the seniors, I never heard from him but rather
received a note from a Mr. Henry Jackson about the
whole affair. If Ketter won’t see his administrators
or students about various issues, what does he do all
day?

Out of this bureaucracy in Capen, an
unprogressive administration has begun to stifle the
University Community. The “law and order” man
the College Council wanted in the early 70’s has
tried to bring too much order to UB
one which
—

reflects his conservative ideology.
In his dealings with the faculty, Ketter has
managed to alienate the academic realm of the
University. His policies have not broadened the
educational spheres here at all. To the contrary, he
has put restraints on alternative educational
programs, the colleges, and those departments which
he felt deviated from the status quo, American
Studies.
■ -t ‘u
Ketter has yet to develop an academic plan and
bases what does exist on his own personal academic
politics. He has been known to call faculty members
out onto the carpet to keep them in line. He uses
tactics of intimidation and suppression in an
atmosphere which is to promote intellectual freedom
and advancement. Because of this, UB is suffering
from “Brain Drain.” It seems that Ketter had
destroyed the high morale and respect for education
which once characterized this University. In return,
he gives us a disgruntled faculty who finds it hard to
carry out theirroles as educators.
Another academic problem which faces a
Ketteresque solution is the four course load. Because
Ketter no longer supports the policy, saying that it
has not worked as theorized, he will do all he can to
insure our lose of it. By reimplementing the five

I am writing in the hope of adding
constructively to the current debate concerning the
Ketter Presidency.
,

My association with tljjs University dates back

to 1948, to the concluding years of Dr. Capen’s
administration, it should be pointed out that Dr.
Ketter has had closer and more frequent contacts

with those who direct the religious programs on the
UB campus than any of his predecessors. I take this
to be a reflection of his genuine interest in the
personal well-being of students.

Mismanagement
To. the Editor.
Well, it’s that time of year again when wecontinuing undergrads fill out course request forms
for next fail. It shouldn’tbe.
Why we are forced to do this right now is
beyond me. With finals coming up, papers due,
catch-up work to be done, etc., the last thing we
need to worry about is scheduling for next year.
What especially irritates me is that the course
request forms don’t even get run through until at
least late July. So there’s no pressing need to fill
them out now.
■
My point is this; why can’t we fill out the lousy
forms AFTER finals, during the first weeks of
summer? Then we could just mail them in (or bring
them in in some cases). I’m sure that nobody
attending this University can’t afford the postage.'
The whole situation is particularly annoying for
those of us. in the School of Management. They
*

,

don’t even have their instructors lined up yet for

next fall, thus making registration a near-farce (t

guess that’s why they’re called the School of
Mismanagement).
I must ask The Spectrvm editors to withhold
my name from prilit. Who knows what kind of V
bullshit A &amp; R (or the School of Management, for
that matter) will pull on anyone who they know has
popped off about their “intelligent” ways of doing

things.

\

To thf Editor:

I would like to address this open letter to the
one and only Dr. Ketter. Thartk you.

npt enough.

Many student officers are also out of
touch with the student body. Why don’t you try to
visit the dorms once in a while? See what it’s like to
live here. Any student with any common courtesy at
aU would pot heckle or jeer you, because most of us
realize^hat your job is not an easy one, rthat your
frprtfoffice will not necessarily solve the
basic problems which confront this University, and
that you are not the cause of all the problems,
After three years here, 1 have heard countless
ideas and suggestions that could improve the quality
of this University, just by talking to people. Even as
I write this letter, 1 am expressing thoughts which I
have picked up from others, as well as my own. If
you decide to interact with the students a little bit, I
am almost certain your popularity on campus would
increase, because it can’t get any worse,
As a start, I would like to invite you to visit the
second floor lounge in building No. 2 of Wilkeson.
The people there are very friendly and I am aurc that
the rest of the floor, as well as I, would be more than
overjoyed to have you. I know that you have a busy
schedule, so drop in any time. Somebody is always
there. If you would rather meet me in the Student
Club, the Rat, the Wilkeson Pub or anywhere else on
campus, give me a ring. I would be more than glad to
send you instructions on how to get there

Dear Bob:
(I hope I didn’t offend you by using your fir§t
name. 1 happen to be on a first name basis with Dr.
Claude Welch, as are many other students and he
never seems to be offended.)
Although I do not see any solid evidence to
support the allegations printed against you in The
Spectrum or the local press, I ckn still see why the
Student Senate has called for your removal. It is due
to the fact that your administration has been subject
to a state of discontent, which has been building up ,
within the student body for several years and it was
suddenly 'unleashed by last Week’s articles in The
""’t
Spectrum.
The reason for all the discontent is that your
administration has been absolutely Unresponsive to
the students. We never find out about decisions until
after they are already made. You very rarely talk
with students, unless you arc forced to and in your
periods of hibernation, tensions build Up to a boiling
poinb. Only then do you make yourself public. That
is why Security had to escort you out df Haas
Lounge tvyo years ago and that is why the Student
Chuck FerYarc
Senate voted to call for your removal this year
F225 Wilkeson
To alleviate problems such as this, the most
no.tr
v(
effective action you could take is to make yourseilf
'more visible ahd encourage your subordinates to do PS. If you decide;to visit our lounge, bring a map
the same. Communicating with us through■' die SA is, You’ll need it.
PPS: A compass would help, too.

user.”

Even with low doses of
contaminated marijuana, scarring
(fibrosis) of the lungs would build
up slowly, and it would be some
time before the only probable,

extreme shortness of

would be noticed. In
other words,' according to the
information Sunshine House has
found,
smoking
paraquat
contaminated marijuana will cause
fibrosis (the formation of fibrous
tissue that will impair the capacity
of your lungs to take in oxygen).
Sunshine House has very little
concrete information about the
“do it yourself” paraquat testing
kits. However, the experts we
have contacted feel it is not a
reliable test. According to one
source, when the marijuana iscrushed in water, the chlorophyll
may be released, which turns the
water greenish. Since th positive
(est for parquat supposedly turns
the solution blue-green, this may
cause inaccurate results.
Another ixpert consulted feels
that without the use of a
the -test
spectrophotometer
cannot be reliable. He feels that
marijuana with low level of
contamination will not cause a
visable change of color of the
solution. A spectrophotometer
will .record that change, even
though the naked eye cannot. In
other words, the home test kit
may show a negative result, whan
in fact paraquat is present
At this point in time, Sunshine
House cannot say whether the test
is reliable or nbt. We are presently
trying to locate a ‘source of
paraquat in order for us to test
the accuracy of the home test kit.
Until them, all we can suggest is
that you stay away from Mexican
marijuana, and smpke Columbian
instead.

Vice President Albert Somit for
on how the School could better work
with the community. That request has borne the
proposed Regional Economic Assistance Center

(REAC).

expected to provide.

-

Formerly the Regional Industrial Assistance
Center, REAC is “an expansion and coordination of
programs already in existence,” said Alutto.
The goals of REAC arc two-fold. According to
the proposal, the Center will “act as a centralized
and accessible vehicle for the providing of regional
development services “and attract new resources of
value to the region and stated
As presently constituted, REAC will consist of
at least three major programs. The first is the
University Business Development Program, which is
designed to aid the business sector. Ihis program
would utilize the skills of students, faculty, and
practitioners to provide research education,
management and technical assistance, “particularly
to small uusinesses,” the proposal stated.
Some of the funding for this program is
expected to come from proposed state and federal
grants, including the New York State Department of
Commerce and the federal Small Business Act.
Predicting the future
The second program is Business and Economic
Research Studies. By means of a regional
econometric forecasting model, this will provide

consumer price index, new car registrations, and
school enrollments, etc. This kind of information is
essential to local businesses and government officials
for predicting future economic circumstances.
The third program would work directly with
local governments and non-profit and community
organizations. Student interns, policy analyses, and
special research projects are some of the services this
Municipal Government Assistance Program is

REAC will also coordinate and increase the
number of student interns placed in public and
. .■fiw.w
private sector firms. &gt;
-

“The substance of the RE AC proposal has been
approved,” said Aluttp. “However, the funding is
being negotiated by President Kettcr and Vice
President of Academic Affairs Ronald Bunn. A
decision is expected by June 1.” The proposed
budget for the first year is somewhere between
575,000 and 5200,000.
According to Alutto, RE AC’s main function is
to “provide access to the University’s skills." The
program is designed to benefit everyone involved.
The proposal states that “by utilizing students as
&gt;yell as faculty, the School has been able to provide a
high quality product at a very reasonable cost, while
also improving the educational experience of
students and providing increased opportunities for
faculty research.”
The community appears to be ready for REAC.
The Courier Express in a recent editorial sated, “The
Regional Ecdnomic Assistance Center is still another
instance of the expertise available oft campus for the
city to use, if the city is willing and able to take
advantage of it. It is gratifiying to see this sort of
thing going on with more and more frequency.”

&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;

GSA President R. Nagarajan,
who controlled the well-attended

In other business, GSA

After months of negotiation,
the tfhiversity has withdrawn its

occupy the English Department’s
prestigious James McNulty T'hair.
Gardner was given a negative
by
the

and Letters George Levine.
According to. Levine, a number

An article in the April 10 issue

by critic Sumner Ferris that 16

been paraphrased from five other
books without any attributive
material. An April 16 interview

with
Chairman Gale Carrithers revealed
that the Department knew of the

accusation, before
publicized it.
Carrithers, whose feelings on
the nrattfe were mixed, said,
“Gardner still functions as a good
novelist.” He added that what the
author did was “unfortunate,”
claiming, “it will undoubtedly
complicate his life and that of his
colleagues wherever he goes.”

Budget negligence
Another factor considered was
Gardner’s failure to supply Levine
with a proposed budget for a
literary magazine the author was
interested in starting. Stating that
he received a “very round figure”
for the project cost, Levine added,
“I asked Gardner to draw up a
specific budget which he never
sent, although I kept asking.”
Since the author indicated his
coming here was contingent upon
the creation of the journal, Levine
was confused about Gardner’s
negligence in submitting the
budget.

INS’ request. The May 2 issue of the Courier-Express stated-that
Ketter’s actions were baaed on the grounds that such disclosure
would violate the privacy rights of the students.
Should the ban be imposed it would affect some 1800
students, the largest foreign student population aT any SUNY
Institution. A meeting between Ketter and INS District Director
Benedict Ferro, hat been scheduled for the morning of May 8. In
depth coverage of the issue will appear in The Spectrum on May
10.

Competence
The Faculty Senate at this University
after
considerable informal discussion
recently
approved -g special committee to study the
re-structuring of the undergraduate program here.
Included ja the talks among facility" members has
been a re-definition of t|ie generally educated person
which closely parallels the Harvard’s faculty’s ideas
on what an educated student should be able to do.
“think and write clearly and effectively,
“having an informed acquaintance Wnh f|ye
general academic areas.
“being able to use experiences in-the context
Of ‘other cultures and other times.’

The core curriculum idea has been debated on
the Harvard campus since 1974 after Dean Rosovsky
lamented the lack of agreement among the faculty
on what an educated person is today. The plan
eventually adopted is heavily influenced by
Rosovsky’s views. The faculty were by no means
united on the proposal. Those in the natural sciences
were against any change, feeling the core curriculum
was slanted heavily to the humanities particularly
history. Other groups within the faculty felt the plan
offers not enough intellectual depth. “The core takes
a clear stand in praise of mediocrity,” said Professor
William Bossert who favored a plan that would force
students to declare both a major and a minor.
The core curriculum seeks to place a heavy
emphasis cm the development of “critical thought”
among students. It also symbolizes the loosening grip
of students on academic direction in higher
education. Many of
the liberalizations in
undergraduate programs during the 1960’s came
after heavy student pressure to ease requirements.

has repeatedly declared that ,*e

Under Volker’s bill,

I have followed many controversial issues that
The Spectrum has covered this year. Probably the
most important, as far as the University is
concerned, is the question of whether President
Ketter is doing his job. 1 hadn’t seen ala* of solid
proof of his ignorance, however, one of his remarks
on Friday really curdled .my blood. The Spectrum
commented on and quoted Ketter in Monday’s issue
by saying: “The mission of this University is
primarily to be a 'graduate and professional center
with strong enough undergraduate programs to
support the graduate programs’.”

to attend his speech; I
certainly would have had something to say. How he
leaves is unimportant to me, but we all know that
anyone who promotes dissention like that, doesn’t
belong here.

Frats getting space
To the Editor
As was mentioned in The Spectrum article
“Fraternities set for rush", fraternities and sororities
are making a comeback at this University. Next
semester gome of them are requesting housing in the
,
dormitories.
Although TKE is the only fraternity that has
housing Officially allocated to it for next semester,
other fraternities such as Sigma Pi have unofficially
applied foe housing through the room lottery. I can’t
understand why so many students at this University
are opposed to the idea of fraternities getting living
-

space.
Hopefully

the fraternities can serve as an
excellent opportunity for new (and returning)
students to meet new people and make new friends.
They can also help in reviving the lagging social life
and bring about a sense of community in the dorms.

Room for quarrel
To the Editor.

In your editorial of Wednesday, April 26
concerning the FSA, you indicated that there was
need to “open Up FSA finances for public scrutiny,”
FSA finances have been open for public scrutiny for
as long as both you and I have been at U.B., all
meetings have been open, financial results have been
reported quarterly, and I believe The Spectrum has
always had copies of those reports. Certainly The

Spectrum has always been invitedno the meetings
I have no other quarrel with your editorial,
however. There-is always room for improvement in
any organization and the FSA of course is no
exception. It is my sincere wish that the new cast of
FSA directors and officers will provide the
improvement. It is certainly possible and Len Snyder
and I are both dedicated to doing everything we can
to help make it possible.

the -year comes to an end, I’d like to
commend Brett Kline for the excellent job he has
done aseditor-in-chief of The Spectrum. I’ve been
on or around campus for the last siV years and I
cannot remember a year when the paper was better
done, more interesting, or more relevant.
Under Brett’s leadership. The Spectrum has
been a forum for the discussion of all kinds of ideas
and issues. Student input has increased because of
Brett’s commitment to enlarging the letters column.
In addition, Brett has welcomed articles on city,
state, national, and world affairs- thus, broadening
the mentality of a paper that could have otherwise
fallen prey to the smallmindedness of a student

A favorite gripe among students this semester is V
the inadequacy of the Wilkcson Pub. It should be a
hangout to draw students instead a last resort.
The moat frequent complaints are of prices and
the overall atmosphere. (It is like a cafeteria that
sells beer!) Specials at the Pub are too seldom mi*
not such a deal; the Uve entertainment is relatively
poor; there is no dance flow and there is little
publicity for what is sponsored.

A few suggestions indude a Happy Hour'oh
Friday afternoons, lowered prices, better specials
($.10 beers, Women's Mite, free mugs), improved
atmosphere (perhaps a certain theme) and some
“munchies.”

improvement... something the Pub needs lots of!

My last point is this: We the students at UB have
always seeked equal representation in student
organizations. Well students
we finally have
achieved that. There ir equal injustice in the school
and in the dorms. You may thank Barry Rubin (SA
official) and Jim Paul (IRC president) for this

and Karl Schwarz, Vice President there. After talking
to them for over an hour, we understood that their
position was 1) they didn’t have the money for the
Springiest; 2) they intended to charge anywhere
from I to 2 dollars for all the beer
that one
could consume. They also told us that if we had
gotten 3,500 more signatures, they stil) had no other
way out of their jam but to charge (obviously they
were wrong). We resent the way Springiest was
organized and the way that they handled the
situation of misleading people here. Our gratitude
goes out to the people who signed our petition and

Give credit where credit is due. The front page
article in Wednesday’s edition of The Spectrum is to
say the least misleading. The politics behind the
organization of Springfest are intricate indeed.
Monday night we were informed of the fact that SA
was intending to charge money for the Springfest
by most to have'been paid for
which was
through the Mandatory Student Fees, Along with
approximately IS other students we proceeded ~to
get over 500 signatures on a petition refusing to pay

Barry Rubin’s rook to hand over The signatures and
to find but exactly what SA’s plans were. We were

So tomorrow we all flock to Nelson
Rockefeller’s campus to drink beer and make merry.
I honestly hope it turns out to be a success. There
has been a lot of wrangling and debate over this first
annual Ufl Springfest. and now that it’s on the eve of
occurrence, I have a few comments to make.
&gt;
1 was one of the principle combatants in the
fight to stage Springfest aruthe Main Street Campus.
My argument is as follows:
-r
11 More people would come to the Springfest at
Main Street; Amherst alienateslhe commuters.
2) The Main Street Campus is still, at least until
this summer, the heart of this University. Squire
fountain is the focal point and people tend to
naturally congregate around it.
3) There ia plenty, of room on Main Street. This
v
campus has been functional for many years and
could easily support a ene-day gala event.
t
4) Having the event at Main Street would
demonstrate how useless, sterile and inadequate the
Amherst Campus is as it stands now. We should not
use it (unless we have to) until we have a campus
that is useful. When the politicians speak at Amherst
there will no doubt be TV cameras capturing (he
event, showing the wort0 what a great time we’re

Amherst?
k
6) After the libraries move to Amherst this
summer, Main Street will quickly begin fading into
the past. Springfest could have been a gallant lost
tribute to the Main Street Campus which holds so
many fond memories for all of us.
I am in no way resisting change or fighting the
hands of time. It just seems to me that a Springfest
at Amherst will have all the characteristic qualities of
that campus
it will be isolated, decentralized,
probably bureaucratic, considering that food service
is handling the concessions and moot importantly, it
will tockr the necessary ambience tor sense of a
thriving university life-pulse
Anyway, there are many far more important
issues to be de&amp;lt with. So have a good time and
while you are out there tomorrow, check out your
SA offices in Talbert. We like

alive.

seems that this article concerning the highlights of the QRS
series at Kleinhans Music Hall is far overdue. Seems that, for all the
problems faced by "jazz" writers attempting to be creative in this
newspaper, there is a greater dilemna fabed by writers attempting to
cover the "classical" scene here.
The reasons vary
writers actually being discouraged from
covering "classical" Music (as well as "jazz" rr the creative writer as
as M. Hopkins may say), and some finally assigned to
nigger, per s#
writ#on concerts never toriting at all after seeing them at QRS expense
(and the expenxe of writers wanting to write on the Music). These are
but a couple, yet the picture should be clear. If not, you are invited to
explore this area for yourself (and, hopefully, develop a better answer).
At any rate (yopr choice), here is, a brief sampling of the excellent
performers here by the QRS, and an idea of the high feeling and beauty

Lights dim. Throughout, the darkness beckons.
Answer alights, the moonlight stride of an Eldar gentleman
walking to the center stage
quickly, as if on air. A stir whispers,
then,wafts like mounting thunder from the rows and rows that sit and
wait in anticipation. The resounding clapglissensof lightning.
At center, the oak sways with the smile of humble appreciation,
and ip this monpent, we are aware of the prescence of a human griot
and loa intertwined. The spirit has come to teach, the mantle of the
eternal Troubadour crossing his shoulders.
He holds his guitar with the assuredness of one whose fingers play
the Ages with the graceful ease and magic that 85 years of living can
flower. The blood of Turrina dances the rich staccato of Spanish ritual
thru his veins, while the ember-deep fire of Joaquin and Villa-Lobos
waltzes sweeping determination thru his brow. The art borne from the
folksong of peasant struggle soars in aria from a concert hall,

Anthony Braxton
From the vanguard of Chicago musicians (the
vanguard runs from Sun Ra to Roscoe Mitchell to
Fletcher Henderson and more), Braxton is a
consummate Master who sees the importance of
composition and improvisation, and makes the

dramatic musical play in which both flow as One. He
recently brought his artistry to shine in Toronto's
Horseshoe Tavern, and has recently witnessed the

American release of tome of his influential overseas
LPs.
Many have been released thru the Inner City
label. One vital i example is his Saxophone
Improvisations/Seriea' F, an album displaying
Braxton's inimrtpbfc mastery of solo performance,
using the alto saxophone. Everything comes into
creative play, and never for the "hell of it"
everything, from the sbft whispers to the sharp
honks, speaks. The dissonance and the humming

tempests soaring and strutting up street.

The LP shows even more: His innovative use of
the overdub to conjure the one-man sopranino
saxophone quartet sings in the manner of strings and
things of the deepest choral muse. The
compositional side of Braxton draws fine focus in his
piece for tuba quintet, an olympian tembred
ensemble that draws an introspective portrait of
delight. His solo play on contrabass clarinet is a
masterly giant step, in more ways than one. The hum
of this instrument is deep as Malcolm's laugh from
the bottom up. Finally, we have the quartet that
Braxton would bring to Arista Records and widfll
exposure. Braxton, David Holland bass, Barli
Altschut percussion (3/4 of Circle), Kenny
trumpet. This ensemble had its own effervescent arc
which ran, literally, all the things we are. Waiting for

Film imitates standard TV
F.I.S. T.j directed by Norman
screenplay by
Jewison from
Sylvester
Stallone and Joe
Eszterhas,
stands
for
the
Federation of Interstate Truckers,
a fictitious union supposedly
modeled after the teamsters,
which Stallone, as Johnny Kovac,
brings from nowhere in 1937 to a
position of power. My notes on
this movie are riddled with one
word, P.A.C.E., which stands for
Pretty Awful Camerawork and
Editing.
Simply put, the pace in
F.I.S.T. • reeks *d*&lt; television
docu-drama. The camera work
makes clumsy references to
everything from Citizen Kane and
On The Waterfront right on down
to The Godfather while the story
milks the Horatio Alger American
Dream theme to its dry, fragile

otherwise good story idea to a
trite, welcome end.
F.I.S.T. tries hard to give a
complete picture of unions in
America, and so along with the

�Panthers
and supported by the Millard
Fillmore
College
Student
Association (MFCSA), the Gray
Panthers of UB organization has
arrived here with a bang. “Both
CAC and MFCSA were very
cooperative in Inaking this
success,” sdid chairman of the
Gray Panthers Jacob “Jake”
Kramer.
Gray
The
Panthers
was formed in the
early 1970’s by Maggie Kuhn. Her
mandatory retirement at the age
of 65 angered her enough to form
a coalition of senior citizens in the
same situation. Since then, the
organization has broadened its
commitments to include the rights
of all people. Their preamble
states that they will fight the
forces of “ageism, as well as
racism and sexism.”
Just recently a significant
battle
was
won
when a
Congressional bill was approved
eliminating mandatory retirement
j
at age 6i.

The Panthers’ affiliation with
University
began
this
approximately one year ago. Scott
Danford of the School of
Architecture, while teaching a
class on housing design for the
elderly,
began attending the
meetings of the Gray Panthers of
Buffalo and Erie County. Soon
after, he asked" his students to
attend to obtain better insights
into housing problems which face
the aged. The students felt this
was a worthwhile endeavor and
wished to see the organization on
campus. At the same jittie,
Kramer was enrolled in the
Sociology Department here and

These factors, plus the help of

to University recognition of the

Ilcnc Gpjjl of CAC, the Gray
Panthers is the project of the

two organizations will continue to
be affiliated until the Gray

against Vietnam have the legal and moral
responsibilities to help rebuild the country.

After the war, the Vietnamese government,
according to th£ principles of the Paris accords, has
tried to approach the jJS government to solve the
problems still existing between the two countries.
Different US administrations have responded to this
with a hostile attitude, as seen in the bills passed by
Congress, and the three vetoes at the United Nations
attempting to prevent Vietnam from taking her
rightful seat at this world body.
Contrary to this attitude and in continuity with
the solidarity extended to the Vietnamese during the
ytar, many Americans have actively helped in the
reconstruction process. Many medical shipments
have been sent to Vietnam. Recently, a shipment of

Pat Raimondo singled in the
bottom of the seventh to drive
home the winning run as UB
defeated the Nittany Lions of
Penn State 5-4 Wednesday, in the
second game of a twin-bill at
Peelle Field. Penn State clobbered
the Balls in the opener, 17-3. The
Bulls’ record is now 19-16.
PSU rightfielder Andy Onkotz
was a one man offense in lugMing
his- team to victory. With Whe
Nittany Lions leading by Jjyp, runs
in the third and having two
runners aboard, Onkotz slammed
a 400 foot homer into the parting
lot. Two innings later, he struck
again, this time with the bakes
loaded, clearing the fence just
over Raimondo*s outstretched
glove. The big (6-4. 220 lbs.)
lefthander walked in the sixth
with the bases loaded giving him
eight RBI’s for the game.
Starter Phil Rosenberg, who is
Buffalo’s winningest hurler with a
5-2 record was chased in the third
inning. Lmty Joe Kesketh, who
also pitched had his first bad
outing. Jim Farr went the route
for Penn State in picking up the

iced the game for Monroe with
fourth period goals }ate in the
game. Joe Buffamonte tallied for
Buffalo in the closing minutes to
complete Buffalo’s Scoring.
Hanson said after the game
that he was surprised that the
Tribunes won. “1 thought we’d
take them. We beat them last year
in overtime in one game, andlpst
another, but we added a lot of
good players'since then,” he said.

Quick start

While Fisher was breezing on
die mound, Guman was holding
the Bull bats in check as well.
Guman, a starting defensive back
on the nationally ranked foojball
■quad, used a rising fastball to
force UB to pop the ball up to the
infield for easy outs..,
Dave Simononis got the first
hit for Penn State, a ground single
just post Groh. Fisher threw a
fastball too high to Dave Delinick,
and the first baseman smacked
into the trees behind the rightfield
fence to tie the game at. 2-2.
Fisher settled down to get the
next three batters to escape
further damage.
*'■
Good curve
“I was trying to keep it low
and away from the lefties,” Fisher
commented on the homer. Fisher
made one more mistake in the
seventh when Simononis hit his
16th homer (in 18 games) to give
the Nittany Lions a 4*2 lead. The
I chunky righthander struck out
five and walked only one in
containing the Penn State hitters'
with his breaking stuff. Fisher
explained
his effectiveness.
“They’re a fast ball hitting team
and I’m not a fast ball pitcher.”
Buffalo battled back in the
seventh, with Wqjcik leading off
with a hard single to center. Ed
Durkin followed with another bit,
bringing ,up Joe Marcella in a
sacrifice situation. He laid down a
bunt which Goman fired high to
third, allowing Wojcik to arrive
safely. Lion coach Chuck Medlar
argued the call vehemently and
was thrown out of the game. With
the bases loaded, Groh singled up
the alley In left driving in the
tying runs. “I was looking fastball
on the first pitch, and he threw it
right down the middle," Groh said
after the game.
Tom Burger relieved Gumaiv

&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;

This University has ljeeh named as the site for a
new Center for Energy R&amp;searcff*tfor the State of
New York, is a proposal being prepared' hy Lt.
Governor
Ann Krupsak’s office. The proposal;
which is currently in the discussiOh stage, could
provide U|ja University with considerable financial
stimulus according to Ronald Sinzheimer, Assistant
Council to the Lt. Governor. If adopted, this
proposal would bring in millions of dollars of
Federal and State research aid to the University.
The proposal is only one part, of a much larger
Niagara. Frontier Revitalization Plan according to
Sinzheimer. ‘The total program will embrace all of
the major economic institutions of Western New
York,” he said, “a move that is very important to
the economy of Western New York specifically, and
to New York State in general
”

Economic catalyst
The origins of the Revitalization Plan'date back
to a community conference organized by the , Lt.
Governor one year ago. The purpose of -the
conference, explained Sipaheimer, was “to serve aS a
catalyst that would bring together the ideas of the
economic. community of Buffalo and produce
proposals for the economic stimulus package.” The
conference suggested the formation of an economic
stimulus package that would aid the University; one
year later, the plan has progressed to the specific
.
Energy Center proposal.
Funding will come from many State agencies,
&gt;

according to Sinzheimer, but particularly from the
Statp Job Development Authority (JDA) end the
Energy Research and Development Administration
(ERDA)
which will furnish $500,000 annually,
University Executive Vice President Albert
Somit believes a rough draft is almost ready to be
submitted to the JDA which is coordinating the
drafting of the plan. Sinzheimer explained that other
institutions in the Buffalo community are working
on similar proposals designed for the revitalization
pjan, buK declined to comment on other specific
proposals

Masterplan
Acting Provost for the Faculty of Engineering
Sciences George Lee described the proposed plan as
a, “grand scheme in Krupsak’s head,” adding that fee
had been asked by Somit to submit a list of all
research currently being conducted by the
Engineering Department. Somit said he wanted the
list to “provide an outline" of this University’s
capabilities in this field.’’ Somit believes that because

of the Engineering Department’s “excellence*” this
University is “ideally suited” for such an assignment.
Members of the Erie-County delegation in the
State Legislature explained that the selection of this
University as the State Center for Energy Research
Development will attract—ether energy related
industries to the Niagara Frontier and “should
provide the impetus for the completion of the
Amherst Campus.”

The Student Association (SA) is spending approximately

giving about $500. Over $2500 of that money is being spent ,on

Got the computer blues? Take heart. Recent improvements have
been made in the University computing system with more, changer
planned for the future.
The computer used by studcnts and faculty is a Cyber 173, which
is different than the Univac 1106 and is used for administrative work.
Recently, service was improved by training the employees who had
worked only one type of computer. Now they are able to use either

house four computer terminals each for student use. ten more
terminals are located at the Computing Center at Ridge Lea.
A terminal is a typewriter-like instrument connected with the main
computer. A remote batch terminal,. such as the ones at EUicott,

Currently, this University has 200 terminals and only 60 ports.;
However, most terminals are not public; rather, they are private ones

There is light use of the sites in the morning and heavy use in the late

of Buffalo. Though most of the gold and brown pot in this area is
purportedly from Colombia and not from Mexico, tKe feaj of
paraquat contamination

The following test is fSr from foolproof. Crush one joint’s

However, please note, the following; sodium dithionate is
reportedly impossible to buy unless requested by an organization
(and not by an individual). Check photo and chemical supply

To. the Editor:

The following concerns the motion passed at the
28 meeting of the Undergraduate Student
Association calling for the resignation of the
President and the related committee report,
published in The Spectrum on the same date, leading
.
lip to that action.
Concern has to be expressed when charges
remain unsupported and there is a failure to raise
substantive issues. Authors of report apparently
and selectively‘'contacted between 30 and 40
people,” of which only one agreed to be quoted. AH
others cited “fear” as their reason for remaining
anonymous.
It is expecting a great deal to give credence to
such “findings,” especially when the erroneous
impression is added that all persons contacted were
in agreement. Identified or not, there is also no
general indication as to the role, expertise, or
background of these members of the University
community from whom opinions were drawn.
How can anyone effectively respond to either
reckless allegations
or vague- reference to
“administrative style” by phantoms to whom
anonymity is guaranteed in advance?
Nor did the committee contact the Office of
Student Affairs to seek important clarification about
charges related to mandatory fees, an area where
authority is delegated to me..I know more about this
than many others at the University, and am quite
willing to discuss all aspects openly.

of Ketter

To the Editor:
It was reported in The Spectrum (Friday, 4/28)
and in the Buffalo News (Saturday, 4/29) that the
UB Student Senate calls for the removal of Dr.
Ketter, one of the principal charges being his
'insensitivities to the needs of the students and their '
educational goals.
Through my contact with the President, albeit
limited, over the lastjeight years, this charge isopen
to serious question. I wish to make several
observations which have convinced me that the'
quality of education and the well-being of our
students have always been an important component
of Dr. Ketter’s daily concerns and actions.
As an established process, the performance of
the: Dean of the Engineering and Applied Sciences
was reviewed last summer. Upon being presented all
committees’ findings and recommendations, I believe
it was Dr. Ketter’s courageous action which led to
the appointment of a new. Dean. There was no
question in my mind that the quality of engineering
education and its direction were at the root of his
decision.
Dr. Ketter has been keeping in touch with Civil
Engineering students by regularly teaching a course
in the department. Students working in research
areas close to his successfully seek his research

Richard A. Siggelkow
Vice President for Student Affairs

«

To the Editor:
The May 1 issue of The Spectrum characterized
the Student Senate’s call for President Ketter’s
removal at last Friday’s Senate meeting as a decision
conceived “rather hastily.” This judgement by The
Spectrum‘s editors on the Senate’s actions is rather
surprising in tight of an editorial printed close to two
weeks ago in the April 17 edition, of The Spectrum.
At that time The Spt-ctrurh urged “the U.B. Council
to rebiove Ketter from the Presidency of the State
Univmify of New York at Buffalo.”
The editorial went on to “call on the SUNY
Chancelk
ird of Trustees to
md on the Faculty
Association, and

lange.

xing years, the time

drn’s editors felt the

begin demanding the end of Ketter’s term in-office.
Now The Spectrum seemingly reverses itself and
chides the S.A. Senate for beihg too hasty. This
reflects a remarkable inconsistency in The

Spectrum’s editorial policy.
Was the Senate to hasty in its call for removal of
President Ketter? 1 think not. A proposal urging
Ketter’s resignation was moved at the April 19th
Student Senate meeting. Rather than vote on it
immediately, the Senate appointed a committee to
review Ketter’s Presidency and report back fp the
Senate. When this report was submitted oh April 28
the Sehate once again decided to delay the vote, this
time until President Ketter had an opportunity to
respond to the charges made against him. It was only
after The Spectrum’s “Capen Hall in Turmoil”
article, after the Senate Committee’s report, and
after Ketter’s reply that the Senate voted by a large
majority to call for the removal of University
President Robert L. Ketter.

Quality

“subtle warnings to his subordinates not to comment
on alleged
dissatisfactions severely
publicly
hampered the committee’s investigation ..This
writer, for one, never received from Dr. Ketter any
such warning, verbal or Written, and knows of no
vice president or other administrator who did.
We also read editorially in the same issue of The
Spectrum that the “three-membercommittee should
be commended for producing such a well conceived
and thorough report under immense time
constraints.” In the same newspaper we learn that
the Chair was still putting “the finishing touches on
the document while the meeting war in progress.”
Incidentally, what were these time constraints, who
imposed them, and why?
To compound the injustice, the material
included several revealing prejudgments, including
Recommendation 2, that “Student Association
should actively work to obtain full representation in
the review and selection process of the -new
(underlining added) University President.”
This all reflects a most careless and thoughtless
approach toward extremely serious matters and
heavily underscores the need for a far greater sense
ofindividual and group responsibility.
Let us hope that future actions by the newly
elected Undergraduate Student Association on such
vital matters wilt be accompanied by more careful,
scholarly, and Statesmanlike study and review by
members of that body.
The burden of proof must now rest fully on the
shoulders of any individuals who choose to treat
lightly justice, fair play, and objectivity elements
rarely lacking among college students.

2) Mount an intensive letter writing campaign to

do so.
a
3) SA officials should do personal lobbying. I
see no reason why we can’t confront state officials
directly. Some pressure could be kept up over the
summer (1 live in Albany and would be quite happy
to assist in any way possible.)
4) Other on-campus organizations should be
enlisted. The Gjad Student Association, Millard
Fillmore students, Faculty-Senate Association,
College Council, and other groups, must all join in a
concerted effort. SA should encourage support and
pledge mutual cooperation from and to all these
-

groups.

__

3) Finally, a coordination committee should be
formed to centralize all aspects of the Dump Ketter
movement. All student groups should be represented
and eventually, faculty and administrators could be

included.

1 am convinced that a movement organized

along these lines would

succeed, provided it had the
total support of SA. We must nqt allow petty
bickering to divert us from our goal of assuring
Robert Ketter’s resignation or removal.
I do pot believe that Richard Mott will become
an obstacle to this goal. Throughout the crisis, he has
acted with commendable, firmness, and able
leadership. Now that the battle is to be joined in
earnest, I am certain he will not allow one small,
personal defeat cloud his vision. K

�Coverage gaps

■

To the Editor.

I was relieved to see that the health insurance
finally been noticed by Sub-Board
I. The pp discussed in Monday’s article, however, is
only one of many. The coverage this year is greatly
reduced from last year’s policy, and since the school
did not make this clear, many students discovered
coverage gaps only after they paid their $67. This
policy, for example, does not cover the first two
visits to a specialist,' «Ven though the student has
been referred to the specialist by the health service.
This, failure of the policy is especially serious
considering the limited on-campus health service
facilities at this University. Most specialists are
available only through the referral system.
In addition to this gap in coverage, the insurance
company refuses to cover medication or treatment if
the patient suffered at another time from the same
ailment before the policy came into effect. Many
policies have these limitations, but last year’s policy
did not, and Vfe were led to believe that we were
receiving the same coverage for our money this year.
The changes should have been made explicit,
perhaps by enclosing an explanation of the new
reduced coverage in our tuition and insurance bills,
warning us before we spent $67 on an extremely
limited policy. If, as Tom Van Nortwick says,
coverage gaps can only be avoided by microscopic
scrutiny of twenty-two pages of fine print in the
policies, the students should have been provided
coverage gap has

with at least a reasonable summary of the policy in
their bills. Certainly, they should have been warnedthat the coverage was not the same.
The $67 I
wasted is about to cost me untold hundreds in
specialist, hospitalization, and medication fees. It
was not my'(tension to switch insurance companies,
but I am expected to pay the price. I will not,
however, because 1 cannot. A graduate student
stipend cannot absorb medical expenses. I plan to
send the threats I receive from collection agencies on
to the people responsible for this policy. I also
intend to try to get a refund on my policy, from
which I have received nothing except claim refusals.
I need the money, although $67 won’t even niake a
dent in the bills. 1 have also been writing letters,
which 1 suggest other people by-passed by the
insurance policy might do. I’m sure the problem is
wide-spread, and if we refuse to suffer in silence,
maybe we can get our bills paid.

While entering the lecture by Dr. Prigogine, the
distinguished Nobel laureate, at Diefendorf 147
Tuesday evening, I was handed
as well as many
other people at the lecture that night
what first
appeared to be an invitation to a “Humanist Lecture
Series” talk concerning Aristotle and Political
Intelligence. This invitation turned out to be
genuine, but when I settled down to read the
“invitation,” it turned out most of it, anyway
to be nothing but a cheap shot against NYPIRG,
calling NYPIRG a bunch of stupid “moral imbeciles”
who were supporting a “certifiable lunacy,” i.’e.,
solar energy. U.S.L.P. proposed, among other things,
that NYPIRG’s S.A. budget be cut, and that this
world be switched to nuclear power as a symbol of
“the human species’ moral and creative capabilities.”
I object both to this insult to one of the best
and most necessary (both to us as students and us as
residents of Planet Earth) organizations on this
campus, and to the insult to Dr. Prigogine and the

with The Spectrum staff writer concerning Ridge
Lea, absence of my primary concern, LIBRARY,

;‘

To the Editor:

I read an entry in The Spectrum recently
concerning the foulness of life in the “militaTy”
especially the “Navy.” Like the author I have been
there. Not as long as he or she was by any meant but
long enough to taste it and to listen. I too am critical
-

but my arguments and criticism take a different
stress. Now ultimately all pertaining to the topic of
having men in arms and parading here and there and
policing the world represents a waste of nearly 300
billion dollars at present at Ore very minimum and a
waste of nearly 300 million barrels of precious
petroleum at present annually.
But we live in less than a perfect world. We are
going to have a fleet on the water and Strategic
bombers and men playing with tanks for quite some &gt;
time to come. The issue is to have it as effective and
nonwasteful and humane as possible. When we view
this nation’s entire institutional structure pertaining
to the above activity one can naturally say its entire
function is to destroy it is said to be founded on the
premise that it is necessary to order humans to their
deaths. I pray myself that detente lasts. And I
believe many naval personnel hope so too.
I can say without hesitation that the bulk of the
young people that “legal entity” called the Navy
receives into its “recruit training commands” it can
be proud to have. They are neither close-minded nor
brutal and they are people I would never be ashamed
to call my friends. And largely the “recruit training
commands” are quite successful. They do a great
deal with very Utile. Some might see them as
nonsensical but I question this viewpoint. They may
have much to teach the nation on human nature and
methods or organization.
“Boot Camp” may be the only aspect of this
organization to praise. And there is a definite
attempt there to maintain order in a reasoned
fashion. On the whole a “recruit” will probably be
safer there. than on any city street. And naturally
there is a price to this. He or she cannot do whatever
he or she damn pleases.
But the “fleet” is a great contrast to all the
above. It must be a testing ground for how much a
human being can endure. Selfishness, brutality,
idiocy, disorder, barbarism, and all the other
elements of a jungle from top to bottom. I believe in
equality of the sexes. I believe our “civilization”
might excel much more if this prevailed as an
unquestionable precept. I merely do not support
ERA because 1 think excessive use of the
amendment process sets a dangerous precedent as to
how we fulfill essential needs. Soon we will attempt
to apply this precept to the “naval fleet.” I want to
see it applied. The head Admirals of that
organization called the Navy must prepare for its
application. It must make its fleet fit for human life.
Those who have been there know what I mean.
Perhaps then a quality personnel force will comc_
into being which will allow for the resource
effectiveness which our fleet operations must meet if
they will allow for proper use of scarce resources.

people who cared to attend his excellent lectures.
Why should the U.S. Labor Party have to resort to
such cheap methods of spreading what is basically
hate mail. Why can't they come out and give
NYPIRG the finger directly???
About the U.S.L.P.’s case against solar and for
nuclear power in general. I have but one question:
Why does the U.S.L.P., which, by its name, purport
to represent the workers and hence the masses,
condone an energy source, which is already much
more expensive to use than conventional sources
(which admittedly have to go) and which will not,
unlike solar, get cheaper as it is employed more, but
more expensive instead?? (This refers to nuclear
waste storage and nuclear, ptynt decommission and
dismantling.) The money one pays for nuclear power
goes from the workers (meaning us) straight to the
utilities and power corporations, groups whom the
U.S.L.P. is thus supporting. The sun is free.

Last week I noticed that there were sighs posted
around the campus sUtinff that the IRCB stores
would be selling foods for passover. I was very
pleased to read this information. But when I went to
the E1H, I found out that they did not have any
Passover foods nor did they expect to get any. The

classrooms.

According to' Professor of
English and former Chairman of
the Faculty Senate Thomas
Connolly,
GRE scores have
improved very little over the
years. “The four course load never

said. “Faculty members assumed

that that has happened.”

Springer favors the curriculum
change. “It's hard to say but 1
don’t think the four course load
accomplished its goals; I haven’t
seen any evidence of students
doing more academically on their

curriculum change and simply

According to Robert Springer,
the DOB allocation issue has been
resolved. The concern in the DOB
now is not with the four course
load', but with the | lack of
equivalence between credit and
contact hours. Said Springer,
“The adoption of the Carnegie
Unit got the DOB off our backs,
The committee then felt free to

program without pressure from

a review would seek to justify the
use of modules other than the
three credit course and estimate
the breadth and depth achievable
in a single degree program. The
report also recommends that
unless a course justifies an extra
credit through additional outside
classwork, that the University
insist on an equal* credit for

the first
in
implementing tjie curriculum
change, is still in progress. The
original deadline of March 1978
has been pushed back indefinitely
according to Springer. He said,
“The reviews have been neglected
because the departments have not
gotten strong directives from the
Office of Academic Affairs.”
Following faculty evaluation, the
departmental
reviews
and
curricular preference are subject
to final approval by the DUE and
the Vice President for Academic
Affairs Ronald Bunn. According
to Springer, a curriculum change
cannot begin to be implemented
for another year and a half,

The UB Royals brought home the bronze Saturday as they ended
their highly successful season by placing third in the National
Collegiate Team Bowling Championships in Milwaukee, Wisconsin.
Buffalo’s first entry ever in national bowling competition finished
its first day of competition in second place, behind Wichita State
3595-3434. The team bowled four games in this Mock in the all
expenses paid tournament sponsored by the Pabst Brewing Company.
In the second round of games, played on Friday, UB set a national
record for a single game, knocking down a total of 971 pins. The
record was short-lived, however, as Hillsbrough (Florida) Community
College went on to snap if in the next game by finishing with a 980
single game total. The team ended that day of competition, the last day
of qualifying play, in third place behind Wichita and Hillsbrough. Liz
Wolszak, a UB senior, rolled a 24S that day for the high single game of
the tournament.
Baker style
The top six out of twleve teams competing advanced to the
semi-finals on Saturday. A new style of keeping score, Baker scoring,
was used in both the semifinal and final rounds as the squad played a
total of twelve games. A rotating system.of play began with each team
member bowling a frame apiece. The lead off woman rolled the first
and sixth frames, the next the second and seventh and so on. This
shortens the game immensely and also yields a more competitive
match. Scores fluctuate readily in this type of game, as UB fell to fifth
overall but came back with two strong games to make the finals.
The top three finishers, Hillsbrough, Wichita and UB, respectively,
went oi\,4o the nationally televised finals on Saturday. Buffalo’s luck
ran out in the finals however against Wichita as the team could not
throw a strike in their two games of Baker style play. Wichita, on the
other hand, put together a string of five strikes to take the set of games
390-306. Coach Jane Poland felt “Wichita deserved to win; we just
didn’t play up to'our potential in those games.” The coach, however,
was pleased. “I’m exceedingly proud of the girls. They played
extremely well for a team never before in this kind of competition.”
Wichita wins it
Wichita, the defending champion, went on to beat Hillsbrough in
the final set of games 403-384. The Wichita team is much more
experienced in high pressure play as they were winners in 1975 and
'
$

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.

sun-drenched festivities are being

country begins with a sunrise
observance where the sun first

a huge greenhouse serving as a

residents will be dedicated and in

would make $5 billion available in

Magel noted a bill pending in

i “The reason why solar power is

Ketter made another important
distinction between
“hard

and “soft money” or research
supported grants. Grad st«dents
can expect to be supported on
soft money for only the length of

Most grad students in the Health

long-awaited Academic Plan.
“I have consistently asked for
an academic plan from this

University since 1972,” Ketter
said, reviewing the failed attempts
and plethora of committees in
between. ‘There have been only
six "Universities in the country
that have successfully developed
an Academic Plan, though many
have come out with what amount

Nonetheless, Ketter told the
audience that Bunn’s office will
this week issue the beginning of
an Academic Plan. Input from “all
sectors” of the University
including students
will be
sought
before the plan in

The pattern that emerged from
the two-hour exchange saw
students guesting action by

Several grad students asked the

Not disproportionate
Among the tmost' acute crises
facing this.University has been the
purported “brain drain,” which
has seen tbe exodus of many
distinguished faculty members.
Ketter;,- asserted that reports of
extensive departures have been
greatly exaggerated by the local
press which, he claimed, has failed
to publicize the comparable influx
of quality professors. “There are
individual, faculty members who
have decided they wish to go
elsewhere,” the President stated.
‘They are not disporportionate to
the people we are attracting.” He
said when someone leaves this
University, it is page one news in
the local papers, but when it snags
four top scholars from Johns
Hopkins University, it “winds up
on page 23.” Ketter said that

Asked why this has occurred,
Ketter replied, “it came down to
personnel. You do not take on a

addition of faculty personnel and
there were no funds to add

“there is no institution in New

for any of the groups in Squire

of the University to produce a
SCATE (Student Course and

1976 Ketter saidi “It wfl] take a

claimed will be in Bunn’s hands.

“I am positive that there arc

But he averted that they have
“never found

to

unapproachable and not allowed

that many of his unpopular

“some feel that I am not the most

Vice President Karl Schwartz

Crucial resolution
Hartzband’s amendment began
a long parade of parlimentary
wrangling. Three attempts to
separate the “no confidence” and
“call for resignation” issues failed
by narrow margins. The opposing
sides debated i. earnestly in an
attempt to win over Senators who
might still have been on the fence.
Since the two issues remained
bonded together. Senators who
favored a vote of no confidence
but were unsure about a call for
Ketter’s resignation were caught
in the middle only half favoring

repeated attempts to keep delate

roll call vote on the motion. Haas
Lounge finally fell silent. One by

one.

Senators registered

their

sentiments on the performance of
President Robert L. Ketter.
The final tally was 16—10 with
one abstention. Eighteen Senators
were not'present for the final
vote, according to Mott. Though a
call for resignation was debated
through! the evening, the actual
wbrding of the resolution called
for the removal of Ketter by the
Board of Trustees.
After the meeting, Mott called
the Senator's actions “irrationa'
and illogical," He also questioner
the- significance of the vote.
“When

something like this, I wouldn’t
call it an overwhelming mandate.”
However, Mott said he would
carry out
the resolution by
sending letters to the Board of
Trustees and Chancellor Clifton
Wharton sometime this week. The
standing committee will continue
the investigation of the President’s
performance, he.said.

strongly against the Senate’s
actions that he vowed: ”1 will not

may well be too great a step to take at this time. The
decision was conceived rather hastily, and based more on
preconceptions than on concrete facts. Moreover, to debate
his "resignation" and then vote for his "removal" is a sloppy
oversight on such a crucial matter.

uest Opinio
SUNY Master Plan seems to favor the unique Buffalo academicprogram which American Studies proposes.
The American Studies-Program has sent the following letter to
all SUNY units inviting cooperative initiative for the fullest service
to the students and the people of New York.
SUNY/Buffalo may soon offer new opportunities in advanced
graduate studies which will include the fields of Native American,
Puerto Rican and Women’s Studies. This proposal for a PhD in
American Studies has been approved by all relevant faculty
committees and is currently under consideration by President
Kettcr. A distinguished faculty group in consultation with
colleagues around SUNY and nationally has developed this proposal
to meet statewide needs and to bring into focus perspectives on the
U.S. and its people. It offers an imaginative use of existing resources
at a time when educational initiatives are badly needed. The
program will provide access to graduate- center research and
teaching in fields related to the diverse histories and experiences of
major constituencies in the State of New York. Among potential
doctoral students are those presently working in undergraduate or
MA programs throughout SUNY.
The Program in American Studies brings a social and historical
perspective to the study of America and its relation to the world.
The program’s unique emphasis on interdisciplinary work and on
the combination of study and fieldwork, builds on the converging
strengths ofits constituent units.

Wow! Montezuma SnowMasT with Fresca:
Even a moose can bear it

Native American Studies
Education has been viewed negatively by Indian people because
the process has been oriented to the needs and functions of the
dominant society, serving as a process to remove the vital energy of
the surrounding society. There is a source of knowledge that is
irreplaceable in the areas of the humanities, natural environment,
and cosmic vision that is unique to the indigenous people of the
continent.
The history of the Native American Studies Program within the
American Studies Department is one of growth, achievement, and
service to thejjcadefnic structures of the University and to the
Indian communities that supply our students. A PhD program
would offer Native Americans an opportunity to secure leadership
positions in critical institutions where with full credentials they can
play a major role in working for social change and cultural survival
in their communities.

Puerto Rican Studies

&gt;•

•

Since 1970, Puerto Ricah Studies and its Overseas Academic
Unit in Puerto Rico has been one of the leading programs in the
field, offering students a full course of cross-cultural study,
fieldwork and research projects lead iing to a BA or an MA in
American Studies/Puerto Rican Studies in the Faculty of Arts and
Letters. "Pbr the past eight years over 35 MA’s have been awarded
by Puerto Rican Studies and over 250 students have spent one or
IjatA-Sfemeste/s in,the extension program in Puerto Rico. These
are
only some of the candidates who would now be served by a PhD
program that can offer Spanish speaking people of the State otNew
York the opportunity to enter critical fields and professions where
they are badly needed.

Women’s Studies
Women’s studies has experienced phenomenal growth in the
past eight years- in both terms of courses taught and research
undertaken. This growth demands PhD programs if the field is to
achieve its potential andjhave a lasting impact on education. No
PhD in women’s studies is available in New York State and few are
available nationally. The women’s studies component of American
Studies is uniquely situated to meet this need. As one of the oldest
women’s studies programs in the country, it is a vital center in the
development of both curriculum and research. Graduate students
here have a two-fold opportunity: theyistudy with faculty who
have shoWn leadership in the development of women’s studies and
they actively contribute to the continued excellence and growth of
the undergraduate program,
This is a model for implementing the SUNY Master Plan, The
Responsive
University,
which specifically encourages the
development of Women’s Studies, Puerto Rican Studies, Native
American Studies and Black Studies and advances the possibilities
of SUNY-wide cooperation. Your affiliation is strongly urged. We
hope you
students, faculty, staff and administrators see ways
in which this program can serve your interests. By serving as adjunct
faculty, sharing library and field station resources, and cooperating
in churse development, supervised teaching and general direction of
doctoral level work fromiyour campus..

&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;

University of Buffalo’s inability to attract and retain top
quality professionals.
The reason for this failue to establish a unified
community at U.B. is generally seen as two-fold: Firstly,
the financial problems which have plagued this University;
and secondly, Ketter’s personal administrative policies and
‘
style."'The interpretation as to which of these two factors
plays the predominant role in this failure to achieve a
campus community is what distinguishes various groups.
Although a strict consensus Of opinion is impossible to
formulate, it is possible to construct a general picture of
the tone held by various constituencies of the school,
regarding the University and specifically President Ketter.
The general view of administrative members is that
Ketter’s administrative style is one which presents an
image problem. Administrators feel his abrasive style and
fierce dedication to the University cause him to appear
harsh and unapproachable to those outside his usual sphere
of contact. Most maintain, however, that his appearance is
.not wholly reflective of reality. Doubts do exist as to his
ability to formulate long-range plans, yet it is generally felt
the restricted budget conditions preclude any President
from setting forth peat directions and goals,

In preparation of this Report, we have tried to convey
the actions of President Robert 1. Kettar. This Report
includes Dr. Ketter’s dealing with administration, faculty
and especially students.
Because of the constraints, this committee was unable
to fUUy investigate every aspect of Robert Ketter’s
administration. However, this committee doe's feel that
this Report conveys sufficient information to enable the
Student Association Student Senate to make a well
thought out decision in regards to the University's

President's performance in office.

We hope that the Senators will weigh all the evidence,

The administration policies and decisions of Dr. Robert
L. Ketter during his tenure of office provide a history.upon which an evaluation of his performance can be based,
At the time of Dr. Ketter’s appointment, there existed a
strong sentiment on the SUNYAfi College Council for a
“law and .order'.’man who would,restore peace to a volatile
University and improve the failing University•Community'
relations. Ketter’s conservative background as Chairman of
the “Hearing Committee on Campus Disruption” along

percent of all such Fellowships at this University). Despite

the widely
excellence of this program, the
faculty number his been cut from 12 to 9 since Ketter’s
term began.

Chisolm also details a procedure he terms frequent and
reflective of Dr. Ketter's administrative style. He describes
his being “called in on the carpet” before President Ketter,
Executive Vice President Albert Somit and a lawyer,
without Notice for explanation. Chisohn feels that actions
like this on Dr. Ketter’s part is calculated to intimidate and
keep people in line. He credits, as do other faculty
members, this style of administrative leadership as the
cause of the “Brain Drain.”
The general opinion of the faculty is that the President
has caused a breakdown in the campus community by
“destroying much of the high morale and diversity of
educational programs at the University." Chisolm feels “It
is not too late to support many of the outstanding
elements of this great University,” but he seems to speak
for the faculty «a a whole when he says this can only be
accomplished through new leadership.

In 1968 when plans for the implementation of the four
were fonmdWpd,' Its academic merits were
espoused by many. Claude JB. Welch, then Undergraduate
Dean, said, ’The change (from the Five Course to the
Four Course semester) would put more premium on good
teaching,” (The Spectrum, April 25, 1973). Dr. Ketter
himself chaired a University Committee that recommended
a Four Course system, (The Spectrum, February 25,
.1974). By 1970 things had changed. The four course load
was coming under attack by the recently appointed
President. President Ketter’s position at that time was that
he supported the Four Course Load, but that “the merits
of the Four Course Load will have to be demonstrated to
the proper budgetary committees in Albany,” (The
Spectrum, October 14, 1970). This quickly became the
administration’s stance, lasting through the mid-1970s.
The Four Course Load was said to be well-founded,
(indeed, Ketter acknowledged that contact hours could
not be a measure of education)
the only question was
whether it could be justified in Albany.
'Ey 1978, however, this line of argument has become
replaced. Now the question is, has the concept worked as
it was theorized. This line of enquiry reached a negative
conclusion when the administration accepted the Faculty
Senate’s Springer Report, alt of which was accepted
without student input. The administration justifies
revetting’ back to the traditional Five Course Load by
claiming that “no data which might support the present
(Four Course] system has been undertaken since its
course load

A second Faculty Senate group

According to then Professor of
Political Science Claude Welch,
the Council failed to address the
very real question of whether the
quality of education call, in fact,
be gauged by the number of hours
spent in the classroom.
But the call for a flexible credit
policy was heard persistently
throughout the faculty and
administration for several years. It
was widely felt that credits should
reflect the intensity of the
coursework and that some faculty
members had put no extra effort
into courses which were now
worth one more credit.
The desire to equate credits
and course content eventually led
to the 1977 Springer report,

recommended

�in enrollment
won’t hurt standards
by Harvey Shapiro
Con tributing Editor
Applications to this University
were down 15 percent this yeir,
but that is not likely to drastically
affect the profile of the Class of
1982, according to Associate
Director of Admissions John
Shellum.
“There will be no great erosion
in the type of student we are
getting,” Shellum said. “The high
school average, the SAT score and
the average rank in class will be
down minimally but this can be
partially
explained
by
a
nationwide drop.”
A drop in applications has also
been registered' .on campuses
across the State. “SUNY Central
reported a drop in all the $UNY
Centers for the FaH,” Shellum
said. The biggest drop in
applications here came from
Nassau County. “Again," Shellum
said, “this i? typical of the whole
State system. For some reason
Nassau County did not have that

applications.”

Keeping enrollment up
drop 4 in
tuition deposits,
which are due on May 1st, are
running ahead of last year’s
figures. Shellum attributed this
increase to “a greater seriousness
of purpose among high school
graduates.” Shellum said that
SUNY Central reported a 20
increase
single
percent
in
applicants (single applicants are
those who only apply to one
school). “We are accepting most,
if not all, of those who only apply
the

here,” Shellum reported.

Another reason for the rise in
ntuitipp,, deposit?,., according to
Shellum, is that the University is
accepting more applicants this
year. Last'year Buffalo accepted a
,f.

lower percentage of applicants
arid was hurt when the number
who actually enrolled fell short of
the projected figure.
“We
are accepting
more
students than last year and part of
the
reason
is
last
year’s
experience,”
said.
Shellum
“However, you must realize that
we are entering a buyer’s market
in higher education.” Shellum
explained that for the first time in
recent memory the number of
college age students has dropped.
“This is projected to continue
into the 1990’s, thus making it
relatively easier for students to get
into the college of their choice,”
he commented.
—

Some twHI ofhidc
Shelhnn added1 that m«re
applicants are beifte accepted; this
year in order to keep etmrihhent
up. “There is some pressure from'
Albany to show woeed for the
Shelton
money we are
said. “If we are going to have the'
Amherst
campus completed,
enrollment must stay up. If we
only have 20,000 enrolled, more
buildings might be cut.”
As usual, applications from
outside the Buffalo area doubled
those from within the 8th Judicial
District (Western New York).
Additionally, by Faculty Senate
order, fifty percent of every
freshman class must come from
the 8th District. “By some strange
twist of luck, we have not had to
lower our standards for. Buffalo
applicants in order to achieve the
fifty-fifty quota,” said Shellum.
He believed that applicants from
the Buffalo area compromised the
majority of, the single applicants f
hereu “That partially explains why

we have not had to institute a
different admissions system for
those from the 8th Judicial
District;” he said.

Pierce will begin his term of
office on August 1, 1978. The
victor has conceived a new
innovative method to represent
students. He claims he’ll develop a

This,
according to Pierce, will enable

Pierce also expressed a strong

Uninformed legislators
For at least seven years, citizen
groups have been wanting to
establish bikeways, according to
Hanson, but politicians aren’t
convinced that their constituents
want this. No money has. yet been
allocated for bikeways. “It’s
important for people who want to
use their bikes to let politicians

conditions,” Hanson stated.
u At the present time, the NFTC
wants to draw up a bikeway
master plan for the two county
region (Erie and Niagara). “The
problem is, we have to get the
money first,” she noted.
Vince Barbera of the NFTC
reported that about $50,000 is
needed to hire a consultant for
the master plan. “But,” he added,
“the
government is wilting
to give us $40,000 of that sum if
the legislators in the local area can
be convinced to allocate their
share.” If the money isn’t
allocated locally the federal
government won’t contribute a
dime, he said. The additional
$10,000 is broken down between
Erie
($7500) and
Niagara
($2500).

Barbera
stated that two
bikeways are currently being
planned in the Buffalo area. One
would link the Amherst and Main
Street campuses here. The other,
dubbed the “Riverwalk,” would
run from the Erie Basin Marina to
Riverside Park and allow only
bikers and pedestrians.
Bike rally planned
Hanson said bikewavs are of
three different types, depending
on the volume of traffic and
speed. On light traveled (30 mile
per hour) roads, the bikers and
vehicles can mix together in
traffic. For heavier traveled roads
the bikeway need not consist of

problem fester and leave it in crisis form to the new
treasurer. Fred has done a superhuman job in coping
with the deficit on top of 70 hours of budget
hearings, besides the day-to-day responsibilities of
being SA Treasurer and maintaining a 4.0 average.

which irritates some people, but he is almost always
accurate and to the point. He doesn’t back away
from issues, and he has the experience that Mr

along with each other and don’t let personal feuds

administration is becoming a clique, then why is
Rich Mott calling for greater student participation,
and for not appointing any elected officials to any
appointed positions, in order to further that end?
Overall, 1 think that Mr. Seitelman’s portrayal of

After reading Dave Seitelman’s letter of April
21st,it looks to me as though he’s got a bad case of
sour grapes. I voted for him in the March election,
and was disappointed by his vanomous ramblings. In
working with the current administration as a Senator
and member of the Finance Committee I have found
them equal to the challenge of student government.
All of his accusations were completely inaccurate,
and someone has to respond to them:
While it is true that the current SA officers in
many cases lacked experience (and I voted against
them because of that) they have proven themselves
to be competent, concerned and dedicated in dealing
with issues that concern students. The previous
administration has offered them little assistance, and
besides, who wants a continuation of the old
Delia-Seiden-Lessoff policies.

decided to pay for when we voted a $3.00 increase
in the mandatory fee. Why, then, a 15% increase in
the price of tickets? Why weren’t students,asked if
they wanted a $3.15 rise in the mandatory fee? This
simply seems like another senseless erosion of the

Guest Opinio
About two months from now will come the
anniversary of the death of Richard Long. Halfway

,

between now and then Justice Norman Stiller will
pronounce sentence on the three men convicted of
criminally negligent homocide in his death.
“Criminally negligent” is an'appropriate phrase
for what the entire Long case has become. Seven
perfectly ordinary men decided to celebrate the next
day’s wedding of Richard Atti so naturally they did
the sensible, responsible thing: they got drunk. Why?
Simply, when you’re drunk you’re supposedly not
responsible for your actions. You can have a great
time doing whatever your heart desires without
worrying about the consequences. After all,
whatever you do it’s the booze’s fault, not yours,
right? The fact that we drink deliberately to get into
that condition doesn’t matter. It’s a socially
accepted excuse for doing anything we wouldn’t
normally have the guts to do but often have an
impulse to do.
Rick Long did the same thing. He got drunk on
Friday night so he could have a good time playing
games with his Porsche. The tragedy happened when
Long’s fun happened to conflict with seven men
having a delightfully rowdy stag party. Long used his
car to come up close to Atti’s car then zoom away
just out of Atti’s reaih. Atti chased Long down
Starin in his car and so did Qiammerasi.
Giammerasi has said that he chased Long
because Atti asked him to. Bqth said they didn’t
know what they were going to do to Long once they
caught him. But isn’t it more likely that they knew
what they wanted to do at the time, but just
couldn’t admit that fact to themselves once they
were sober? And they certainly couldn’t admit it to
the jury. They certainly couldn’t admit they really
wanted to tear Long apart for spoiling their fun.
What made them think the human body can take
that kind of abuse? Why do they think the human
body is supposed to act as it does in a John Wayne
movie?
They said they didn’t hit Long hard and they
didn’t. They just killed him a little. Three grown
men, two of them policemen with first aid training
and fighting skills beat another man into
unconsciousness, then deliberately left him there.
They actually are asking us to believe that all they
wanted to do was pound Long to a pulp but not kill
/•..
him.
Why then has the jury bent over backwards to
given them the benefit of the doubt? Probably
because the jury found themselves identifying with
the defendants rather than the victim, The belief is
that these three men just made an unfortunate error
in judgement under unusual circumstances. It isn’t
the first time this has happened.
We make excuses all the time. Lt. William Caley
didn’t mean to kill the villagers of My Lai just

Substantial participation
To the Editor.
We applaude The Spectrum for recognizing the
efforts of fraternities and sororities and other
organizations for making the dance marathon a
success (editorial of 4/19/78). However, we of Alpha
Sigma Alpha believe that as a sorority who spent
numerous hours in preparation for a bake sale and
“manned” this sale for the entire 30 hours of the
marathon raising $300.00, deserve some recognition.
We realize that we are a small group, but, despite our
size, played a substantial part in making the
marathon a success.
Additionally, our efforts could not have been a
success without the help of our friends and various
corporations of Western New York. Once again,

In

defense of Wes

Carter

To the Editor

Ip response to Wednesday’s letter concerning
the operation of the work study office, we feel U
necessary to say a few words in defense of Wes

Carter, who runs the office.
It may be true in certain cases that the office
personnel has dealt with students in a less than
courteous manner. Whether that is true or not seems
to be a personal, subjective matter than cannot be
proven either way. Vie object to the general
aspersions which have been cast on Wes Carter
himself. In all our dealings with Wes we have found
him to be one of the most approachable, responsible,
sensitive and pleasant administrators in the entire
University. In two years we have had no trouble in
getting to see him, even at short notice, and are more
than satisfied with the flexible and sincere way in
which he has resolved our problems with the work
”

study program.

“neutralize the enemy.” He didn’t kill anybody, just
followed orders. Just like the SS guards of Aushwitz.
They didn’t mean to kill millions of people,.just
“resettle them.” The Warsaw pact didn’t mean to kill
25,000 Czechs in 1968, just “liberate them from
capitalist influence.”
In each case, the perpetrators should have
understood the consequences of their actions but
chose instead to hide'behind a veil of excuses that
we now accept. The list of examples is endless.
But so is our hypocrisy. For example, two
weeks ago, a 13-year-old boy turned in a false alarm
on a street corner not far from the house in which
Richard and Gary Atti grew up. It was just a prank
but a fireman was killed answering the call. The boy
is to be petitioned to Family Court and probably
will be institutionalized for what has been called
“this irresponsible act that led to a man’s death.”
WJiy is this boy being treated so harshly for the
death of a man he never even saw, when Atti,
Gramaglia, and Giammerasi admittedly killed
another man with their bare hands and are being
treated leniently?
The reason seems to be that the Long
defendants have become names with faces attached
to them, with wives, jobs and children just like most
people whp sit on juries. The television reporters
who covered the case have even been calling the
defendants by their first names. But the boy in the
false alarm case has no face and no name so we
demand “justice.”
The same holds true for the death penalty. We
demand an eye-for-an-eye, but when we sec whose
eye we want, that’s different. Witness the case of
Gary Gillmore, the man who wanted to die but
ended up in a court fight to do it. Few people want
to bear the responsibility for a man’s death. But then
neither do the Long defendants. They insist that
alcohol killed Long.
During the entire Long case, no one
not the
police, the jury or the defendants
has had the
courage to face their responsibilities. Yet everybody
13-year-old boy to shoulder the
expects a
responsibility for the death of a fireman who simply
failed to keep his grip on a moving fire truck. The
boy’s actions were the reason the truck was moving
but he did not push the fireman off that truck.
One could argue that it was the fireman’s fault
for not hanging on, just as the defense has argued
that it was Long’s fault, being too weakened by
alcohol to keep from drowning in his own blood, but
no one has. The Long case is already, going down on
the books as an unfortunate accident while the boy
is being labeled an irresponsible brat who killed a
man while having some fun. One wonders if
somewhere along the way we didn’t get things a bit
backwards.

Open house at EUicott
To the Editor.

No, No, No
The purpose of tomorrow’s demonstration is
not as carefree and happy-go-lucky as you (and
others) have stated. These are some more realistic
reasons.
Here is a chance for students to get together
without anyone telling them that they can or they
can’t we are doing it entirely on our own.
Here is a chance for all the great minds at this
University to get together, pool their resources,
knowledge and anger, and to start creating change.
An “open mike” station will allow ideas to flow
freely and we shouldn’t he surprised to find that
many people are fed up with the same exact
&gt;
experiences that we are.
So big deal? Just a lot of people talking but
nothing getting done? Wrong.
This derqpnstration isn’t aiming to solve all the
world’s problems in one day, but rather to determine
and discover which ones we feel are important. And
these will be issues that the University should be
forced to deal with; not'just me issues that The
Spectrum or the SA tells us are importaht but the
ones that are voiced and are important to the people
at the demonstration
where students will come
because they want to come,.
1 would like The Spectrum to make a
commitment (since it is the Student newspaper) to
print the list of demands that will be compiled at the
demonstration on the front page so that everyone
can see what we are really interested in.
Already, another open demonstration, with an
“open mike” and whei£ people can come and say
whatever is on their mind, is being planned for
sometime next week at the Squire fountain. We
should not stop. Rather, we will push and push and
yell and scream and keep on screaming until we are
heard and OBEYED, because it is our University.
Sure we can enjoy ourselves, meet new people
and relax with a band at the end of the night, but if
you’re going to come and party, also come to listen
and learn and speak.
Shit, let’s raise a little hell around here and show
them we’re alive. Let’s start to get things done on
our own.

institution in 1969.” A few questions immediately arise:
1} Why, if there was truly a need to justify the system
to the Division of Budget, had such a study never been
'■
undertaken before? ■
'.r '
2) Why, if the administration was truly in support of
the Four Course Load, were efforts not made to ensure the
Four Course Load was implemented in such a way as to be
acceptable
as such programs are in $lngham ton, Cornell,
University Vf Rochester, etc.; . '
,
\
3) Why, if a truly,fair Study of the Efficacy of the Four
Course Load was to be undertaken, were students denied
any input into the process?
Further, in the realm of academics, President Ketter has
created widespread concern through his inability, or
unwillingness, to establish an academic plan. Two attempts
have been made, both of which have failed dismally. The
feeling amongst faculty, students and some administrators
isthat the failure of both plans aredinastlyattributable to
the narrow parameters established by President Ketter for
the Academic Planning Committee. Partial justification for
these narrow parameters was attributed by Dr. Ketter to
budgetary constraint! Members of the Committee
expressed their belief that a declining budget was not
necessarily an “intellectual Strait Jacket,” {The Spectrum,
December 8, 1976)
Student representation on major Academic Policy
Making- Committees has been sought by student
organizations for a number of years. At present, the
Graduate Student Association has submitted a proposal
which-jieeks to establish formal student representation on
such todies as the President’s Academic Cabinet, the Vice
Presidwp' for Academic AffaifS meeting with Deans of
&gt;v Faculties, and various dfViSifonal committees dealing with
all departmental policies affecting student education. This
proposal has. been pendingsitice September, 1977 and has
yet to be responded to.
Dr. Ketter has pledged that student input about
teachers would be taken seriously, (The Spectrum, March
4, 1974). However, the most direct form of input
avaialable to students, that of a Teacher Evaluation
System, is no longer funded by the administration.

Apart from Academics, in which -few say President
Ketter’s strength lie?; is the Construction Issue. Two
divergent perspectives are found concerning Dr. Ketter’s
efforts and achievements in getting State revenues released
for Construction. His supporters maintain that Ketter’s
hardnosed bargaining has enabled him to obtain funds
which originally would not have been available.. His,
detractors maintain, that the unyielding and abarasive

The removal from office of upper level administrators is
a difficult matter for any University President to handle,
but this task has proven especially difficultfor Dr. Ketter.

From his appointment in 1970 as a "Law and Order' man
through the running conflicts over interpretation of the
Mandatory Fee Guidelines, the Student image ot Ketter
has changed little. He is seen as inaccessible (he last met
with the Student Senate over two years- ago) and
insensitive to student needs. He seems to champion not
student causes, but outside business interest. The following
is a summary of some of the more important conflicts
-.
between the students and President Ketter.

&lt;

During the 1975-76 academic year a
over
the funding of the U.B. New York Public
controversy
Interest Research Group arose when on December 16,
1975 President Ketter sent a letter Jo Assistant Vice
President for Student Affairs Anthony Loren zetti
instructing Lorenzetti to block approval of a one year
contract between Student Association and NYPIRG.
Calling the use of Student Mandatory Fee monies for
NYPIRG “totally inappropriate at this institution,”
President Ketter gave a strict constructionist interpretation
of SUNY’s Guidelines saying:
“It is my firm position that funds provided from
compulsory student fees of Buffalo should be used Only to
fund projects that have a ‘direct and identifiable’
relationship to the student body at Buffalo.”
At (he time, “five other SUNY schools, all governed bv
identical Board of-Trustees Guidelines, had contracts with
NYPIRG. Inc., in addition, nope,of the administrations of
Albany, Stony Brook, Binghamton, Buff
those schools
State and New Paltz ever involved themselves in contract
negotiations.” (TheSpedtrutH, January 23, 1976).
Many students viewed’ President Ketter’s actions
concering NYPIRG as a continuation of an inappropriately
strict interpretation of Mandatory Fee Guidelines.

Group Legal ServicesJn the Summer.of }?77,
Vice President for Student Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti,
with the active support of Dr. Ketter, rejected the usage of
Mandatory Fee money by Group Legal Services for the
purpose of individual student representation. This caused
substantial reduction in the programming of Group Legal
Services.
The administration asserted that the program was
beneficial only to the individual and not to the. campus
community, and therefore it was not a “student service.”
Dr. Lorenzetti has stated that he interpreted “student
service” to mean “Medical Type Programs.” This
interpretation has been questioned by students on the
ground that the guidelines state that Mandatory Fees may
be used for “Transportation and other student services in
support—of theie programs.” (SUNY Board of Trustees
Rules and'Regulations Section 302.1*1.
Richard LippeS Claimed that the withholding of funds
fbr individual representation for students violated their
tst, Sth, 6th and 14th Amendment rights and their right to
spend their money as they‘seerfit. Within the established
Guidelines. Spit was filed on these ground and the case is
still in court as,of this date.
One of the principle arguments forwarded by the
Administration is that this aspect of Group Legal Services
benefits'the individual, not the University community.
However, the assertion has been made by-students that
service organizations, intercollegiate.athletics and the vast
majority of programs provided to the University by
Student Association are utilized by respectively small
segments of the undergraduate population. Additionally,
students maintain that one student program is being
curtailed in lieu of another based solely on the nature of
that program.

Graduate Students Employees Union (GSEUI For a
number of years during the mid-1970s graduate students
occupying various teaching and research assistanfships had
been attempting unionization to represent their collective
interests. This union, the Graduate Student Employees
Union, was stymied by refusal of Dr. Ketter to recognize
representatives of the
the organization as the legitimate
graduate students.

Dr. Ketter had taken action to control the Student

interpreted by students as indicative of his lack of

�Elvis Costello makingraves;
Nick Lowe, the lesus of Cool
by Barbara Komansky
and Terry Kenny

I mean, how ironic can you
get? But you would expect Elvis
Costello to open his set with
something named "Waiting For
The End of The World"? At
seven-thirty' We waited for Nick
Lowe with Rockpile, a shakin'
pop quartet that featured Dave "I
Hear You Knockin'
Edmunds.
After his unfortunately short set
we waited for Mink Deville, New

vision with heartbreaker hair.
Then we waited for Elvis. And
now what are we waiting for?
Don't think it's the end of the
world. It's going to take a hell of a
lot more than an angry young
man from England with a guitar
and rumpled green suit to prevent
that, but right now Costello and
his- company are working hard to
wake and shake the rock and roll
audiences in America. This was
the second time Elvis and Nick
Lowe appeared in Buffalo in as
many months. You think that
may have been a bit repetitive?
WRONG! I don't think Elvis
could ever be. His persona was a
little more relaxed, and Shea's by
nature induces a bit of more
reserved behaviour than the
60-cent mixed drink policy of
Buff State's Moot Hall Nightclub.
At Buff State, we were told that
the concert looked like a fuckin'

you knew Nick Lowe was the
Jesus of Cool. The angels may
wear red shoes but Jesus wears the

masterpieces Pure Pop For Now
People, Lowe set the rhythm on
bass, with Edmunds playing
rave-up guitar. Next is "I Knew
The Bride," an out-and-out rocker
featured on the Stiffs Live album.
It sounded like the Stiffs Nick
Lowe medley coming up with the
transitional heavy drums hinting
at "Let's Eat" Instead it's the
sound of "Breaking Glass." On
the record, there is slivered, tinky
piano, sending shards deep into
the night. Without Bob Andrews
there, though, the song becomes a
pounding shaker, reminiscent of
"Not Fade Away." It's good to
see that Lowe can stand back and
give the stage to the back-up for
"Ju Ju Man." After ail, Rockpile

remember how the lights went

couldn't be convinced for another

Don't count on Elvis being

down to the Palladium before you

Oeville and Nick Lowe have alt
got the beat. There's gonna be so
much dancin' when they get

home.

See, the thing is is that this concert really wasn't very different
from all her others that I've seen (except that she played "Love Has No
Pride," jeez, man, everyone always says how the song gets done too
much and then nobody ever does it but die brought it back so there),
y'know, especially in Buffalo, cause she said herself how she'd been
here a trillion times, at least two in Shea's, it's just like Karla Bonoff's
"Home." In fact about the only diff was in I think '75 when she made
that joke about Betty Ford that all the moralizers made her apologize
for, such bullshit.
So what is K that makes this woman so special? It can't just be
that she's a no-nuke, a cause that makes it real well with the college
audience. She's a hard-drihkin', tough-lovin' strait-strumming woman,
but that's also her own unique stereotype. Let's face it. she's got the

away Bonnie can look seventeen, but she rocks better than any of the
women she's been associated with. But besides that, she'can take John
Prine's "Angel From Montgomery" and give it such pathos that it's
impressive beyond tears. And tf»en right back to rocking, with John
Hall coming out fpr "fiopd Enough". I really wonder what Gladys
Knight and the Pips are waiting for. She winds down the set with three
more rockers, no time for breaks between "‘Bout to Makw Me Leave

The one consistent .aspect of Raitt's show is at least one segment
of her encore. "Runaway" sounds better than the record,'with Hall's
sax player, Brian Cummings, blowing it out. Somewhere between
"Runaway" and "Since You Been Gone"(Aretha I) this band starts to
cook, like they never have before, this night or another. The audience
is up and screaming, Bonnie gives them "Bluebird" and ‘Tjust don't
know why, 1 love you like I do, all the changes you put me through
..." She's off and on again, with "Love Has No Pride." And
that's
probably the reason why she's so good. She knows the right time to
bring back that old chestnut, she sounds just as good as Linda ...
The Buffalo audience need not be Buffaloed. We can have Bonnie,
Raitt every year, making Shea's rock like it should. It's good enough
for me.

The Lacemoker'

The tragedy offirst love
by Michael Silberman
Spectrum Arts Staff

The Lacemaker directed by
Claude Goretta, depicts a young
girl's initial taste of love as a tragic
serving.
Pomme
(Isabelle
Huppert), a 19 year-old beauty
salon employee, is a fragile girl
who stumbles and falls along the
steps toward womanhood. Shy
and sexually naive, Pomme is
misunderstood and misguided
throughout this touching and
sensitive film. On the surface, she
is simple and undemanding, and

The old Brooklyn Paramount

Predictable pastiche

'American Hot Wax'
piece of pop schlock
by Harold Goldberg
Special To The Spectrum

Back in the early sixties, before
rock music became an accepted
part of television programming,
one had to turn to showsTike
Shindig and Hulabuloo to see
artists such as the Dave Clark Five
or Herman's Hermits perform.
Rock criticism and fanaticism
weren't the norm of youth culture
or the object for all culture that
they are today. Imagine, then, a
movie that goes even farther back,
to the days of Alan Freed and the
Brooklyn Paramount; to Little
Dion and Screamin' Jay Hawkins
and the Planotones. Trying to feel
today the excitement that these
groups generated then is like
trying to describe a roller coaster
ride without ever having ridden
one: It's hard to make a movie
about such dear feelings without
slipping into symbolism,
v Floyd Mutrux, who directed
American
Hot
Wax
is
unknowingly trying to deal with a
romantic idea as he portrays the
hopes of rock disc jockey Alan
Freed: the jock of the fifties, the

hero of rock's first generation, the
instigator of rock payola.
Hot wacks
Mutrux deals with the do-ops,
the boogie-woogies, the ROCK,
the innocence and excitement as
things too conceivably fictional.
Paramount Pictures must have
figured it could fictionalize
everything in rock 'n' roll without
losing
the feeling, thinking
perhaps to enhance the mood.
Still,
they understood they
couldn't fictionalize the feats of
Freed because his story is already
legendary. But aside from Freed
and the rock stars
Chuck Berry,
Jerry Lee Lewis and Screamin'
Jay Hawkins
the dialogue, the
plot, each and every character is
fictional.

Goretta implies that people

lovers' demise. Goretta first places

becomes an eroding factor. Once
the vacation comes to an end,
their relationship begins to fray
until it is finally severed.
Here Goretta's subtle and
careful
film
becomes
melodramatic
and
muddled.
Francois n confused by Pomme's
silence and utters his objections,
but since theft is little in the film
to indicate any discontent, these
objections seem unconvincing.
Pomme comes across as so sweet
and good natured that it would be
hard to imagine anyone finding
faulty with such an angelic soul.
Francois' dismissal, as a result,
seems far more despicabfe and
senseless
than it reasonably

should. Goretta goes a bit far in
insuring that our sympathies lie
with Pomme, who is (eft
pyschically shattered at Ihe end.
He poutd have painted this picture
without such phosphorescent
coloring. Even those with bad
vision can't help seeing that these
characters have been polarized.

A blessing and a burden
Goretta seems to distrust
human relationships; in this film,
they inevitably involve acts of
desertion. Pomme's vulnerability
is both a blessing and a burden for
Francois. The couple plays a game
of trust on the high cliffs of
Cabourg and he promises that he
wont (et her fall.- We see later on,
however, that it is a promise he
cannot keep. Francois can only be
seen as a villain when Pomme is
institutionalized near the end of
the film.
’*

Paradoxically, Goretta seems
to break one of his own rules.

Instead of allowing us the
freedom to draw our own
conclusions, he structures his film
in such a way that we can't help
feeling manipulated. But the fault
is slight; these days, flawless gems
are a rare item.

Marilyn's gazes into storefront

imply
her depthlessness and
personal obsession with her looks.
Pomrhe's mother is also shown to
be a somewhat pathetic soul.

windows

Withdrawn and widowed, she lives
a suffocating existence, exhibiting
little interest in anything. The
slight exploration her character
undergoes reveals an empty life.
Pomme's world consists of these
two feminine influences and her
job, the cosmetic repair of vain
and/or aging women.
Goretta, however, indicates
that this heroine isn't herself
suited to such alteration. Because
she is naturally beautiful, any
attempts to change her
either
physically or spiritually -r seem
criminal. She rejects the stylish

The Joan Crawford retrospective craze has finally reached
Buffalo. Three of her major films will be on local screens during
the next week, with more to come.
Saturday at 8 p.m., at the Buffalo and Erie County Historical
Society, 25 Nottingham Court, Media/Study Buffalo is reviving
the film that made her a star. Our Dancing Daughters. This silent
film, to be shown with organ accompaniment by Harvey
Elsaesser, reveals Crawford in her first incarnation as a jazz age
flapper. Hollywood finds morality in this madness of short skirts,
all-night parties and free-form dancing. But perhaps surprisingly,
it validates the ethics of the flappers aginst those of their more
puritanical sisters. There is an admission charge of $1.50.
Monday at 7 p.m., in 170 MFAC, the, UUAB Film
Committee will present one of Crawford’s more memorable
thirties films. Mannequin the first of many comeback movies in
her forty-five year career. She is redeemed on-screen by
millionaire Spencer Tracy, and off-screen by the sensitive
direction of Frank Borage.
A number of Crawford films will be shown at the Rivoli
Theatre, VI09 Broadway, as part of a series dubbed "Great Ladies
of Warner Bros." Fortunately, they are.not taking the title of the
series too seriously. Beginning Wednesday, they will screen one of
Crawford's best M-G-M films. The Women. They promise at the
Rivoli that Mildred Pierce and Crawford's other celebrated works
for the brothers Warner will follow in May. Shows at the Rivoli
run continuously from 1:30 p.m. Admission is $1.50 before 4
p.m. and $2 thereafter.

Buffalo showings of
three Watkin films

Long After Midnight, by Ray Bradbury (275 pp..
Bantam Book*, New York,)
What a wonderfully diverse collection of short
stories Ray Bradbury has written in Long After
Midnight (his first book in seven years). Bradbury
has expanded his realm of science fiction and tantasy
by more often exploring present times and,
nostalgically, the past with the same kind of magic
conjured by his poetic pen in The -Illustrated Man
and The Martian Chronicles.

Eng|l$h film-maker Peter Watkins will present three of fiis
films in Buffalo, beginning with his latest and most highly
acclaimed work, Edvard Munch, at tKe Albright-Knox Art Gallery
on Sunday, April 30, at 2 p.m.
Edvard Munch is a biographical film on the Norwegian
painter who has come to be acknowledged as one of the leading
European artists of the late 19th and early 20th century, one
of
the most influential painters in the founding and defining of
Eropean expressionism. Watkins’ film presents an almost
documentary portrait of the milieu in which Munch’s tortured art
was formed: the family circle wracked by disease and death; the
conservative middle-class, puritan society of Christiania (Oslo) in
the late 19th century.
On Monday, May 1, at 8 p.m. in the Squire Hall Conference
Theater
Main Street, Watkins will present his 1967 film
Privilege an allegorical futuristic work on rock 'n' roll and
totalitarianism in which a rebellious rock star is compelled by the
combined forces of church and state to become the messiah of a
"Christian crusade for conformity." Privilege stars Paul Jones,
formerly lead singer of the Manfred Mann Group, and Jean
Shrimpton, a well-known fashion madel.
On Tuesday, May 2, at 8:30 p.m., in the student union social
hall at the State University College at Buffalo, Watkins will
present The War Game (1966), which is still probably his most
famous film. A hypothetical "documentary" about the effects of
a nuclear attach on England, The War Game was produced for the
T3BC, who then refused to show it. It was felt by supporters of
the BBC that its depiction of the horrors of thermonuclear war
should be shown only to "the right people";,"people occupying
positions of influence in national or local policy or information"

everyday
goings-on'
student-teacher infatuations, Sunday walks,;an’old
couple's night out at the local deli with work more
characteristic of him: time machines, Martian spirits
—

and androids. When he writes about our
conventional universe, the stories sometimes tend to
border on triteness and naivete. More often,
however, Bradbury describes our world with the
same freshness, vividness and power one finds in his
surreal tales.
Bradbury, at his best, sounds quite like Flannery
O'Connor, especially in 'The Burning Man'' and
"The Miracles of Jamie". Like O'Connor, Bradbury
relates sensations of color and warmth just as
intensely as he does the thrust of the plot. Also
similar is the manner in which the characters are
created: no matter how despicable or how splendid
V- --.y
they are, we like tljeijt:
In "The Burning Man", a little boy and his older
sister go out for a drive to an old familar beach. On
the way, they pick up a sun-reddened man who is
stripped to his waist. As the hot car throttles down
the long road under the white sun, sending plumes of
dust swirling in the air, the man riddles the two
fairly self-satisfied folks with questions like; Do you
ever think about genetic evil? No. So they kick him
out. End of story. Almost.
"The Miracles of Jamie" fills the mind with
reminiscences of O'Connor's VThe River". What
happens to a little boy who believes too much in
God and miracles? Bradbury's finale rivals
O'Connor's in its gasping pathos.
Some of the collection's best tales deal directly
with distinguished authors like Ernest Hemingway,
Thomas -Wolfe, and George Bernard Shaw, each
presented in
a different time frame. These stories

In "Forever and Earth", an eccentric old man
invests his fortune in the development of a machine
that will transport Thomas Wolfe forward in time so
he canjwrite a book about rocket travel in a way lost
to writers of jthat time. In 'The Parrot Who Met
Papa", Bradbury explores the world of what might
have been if Heminway had finished his last novel.
The parrot, you see, memorized the novel, and one
of Heminway's jealous foes stole the unfortunate
■
■
bird.
Bradbury resolves his Obsession in "GBS Mark
V", the most recently written of the three stories.
The ending finds a young crewman drifting tfirough
space on a wrecked spaceship with an android copy
,
of George BernarO Shaw:

"And the old man spoke and the young man
listened and the young man spoke and the old man
hooted and they fell around a comer of the universe
away out of sight, eating and talking, talking and
eating, the young man biting gumball foods, the old
man devouring sunlight with his solar-cell eyes, and
the last that was seen of them they were
gesticulating and babbling and conversing and having
their hands until their voices faded into Time and
the solar system turned over in its steep and covered
them with a blanket of dark and tight, and whether
or not a rescue ship named Rachel, seeking her lost
children, ever came by and found them, who can
tell, who would truly ever want to know?"
You should read Long After Midnight; not just
because Bradbury is stfll growing as a writer; not just
because he is the king of science-fiction. You should
read it because Bradbury can so adepfiy rivet you to
h'S tintillating, fun world.

Technological fixes
One answer to this p oblem is
to use coal and hydro power to
the
generate
(?)
necessary
electricity. But what will be done
with the sulfur dioxides and
particulate matter spewed into the
air as a result of coal use? Of
course, the technological fix
stack gas scrubbers, will solve the
-

problem.
Alright, let’s say we primarily
use coal and our utility companies
use the various technological fixes

to prevent air pollution. What are
we to do with the problem of
waste heat being constantly added
to the biosphere as a result of the
generation

cannot
be overlooked. Yet,
non-profit educational institutions

continue to be excluded from aH
of the proposed economic relief
plans
set
forth
by
the
Administration and Congress.
Such an oversight aggravates
the dilemma of increased energy
costs and has an influential impact
on the rising costs of higher
education. Field
experience
within non-profit educational
institutions indicates that a
properly phased program of
investments of approximately
S2.00 per gross foot can reduce
energy consumption by at least 25
percent, and potentially by 40

and

transmission of
greater amounts of electrical
energy? This here seems to be our
limit to growth, that precious
principle
of
our
industrial
civilization. Let’s be optimistic
and
say that "our” utility
coetpanies provide a technological
fix to this problem.
The fundamental problem still
remains
basing this wonderful
growth oriented industrial society
preimarily on NON-renewable
resources, which by definition are
finite. How will our energy
consumption continue to grow, in
order to support this type of
society, faced with this finitude.
One characteristic of “the
ahswer,” supported by many
(including our illustrious leader
who hasn’t as yet passed a
national energy policy), is energy
conservation. The fact remains
dial we are dealing with finite
resources in a society that places a
high value on infinite growth.
Energy conservation can only be
used to “buy us time” so that we
may halt the inertia of a system
based on growth and finite
resources and turn to renewable
(infinite) types of resources.

percent.

There are many areas of energy
conservation
which may be
attacked within institutions such
as this one. Here are just a few:
dimmerswitches for lights, precise
illumination design for lighting,
temperature and flow control
devices for showers, push button,
slow closing valves for toilets to
deliver one gallon of water,
required routine maintenance of
Heating Ventilating and Air
Conditioning (HV AC} systems for
optimal
efficiency, accessible
means of reducing energy used for
HVAC during non-use periods:
accessible
means of volume
reducation and/or shut off when
ventilation isn’t required, pooling
with outdoor air and fan systems
wherever permissible, and most
importantly the establishment of
a campus energy management
committee and program.
This should be an active
committee consisting of faculty,
students and administration which
would conduct energy audits and
heat loss and gain studies oncampus
buildings,
establish
guidelines for energy conservation
procedures within the University
and make energy conscious design
and planning recommendations to

by Brad Bermudez
Campus Editor ,
In the Spring of 1969, with the
Vietnam War and other emotional
issues occupying students’ minds,
the Faculty Senate here gave birth
to what has become known as the
four course load by establishing a
four-credit for three-classroom
(contact) hour policy.
Last December, after eight
years of scrutiny, evaluation and
debate, the same Faculty Senate
effectively killed the four course
load experiment and instituted in
its place a flexible credit hour
policy which will vary academic
loads across departments. While
the new policy is confusing, one
fact is crystal clear
the
experiment has been deemed a
failure. Most faculty members and
administrators .believe that the

.Senator George McGovern tD., S. Dakota) loW a standing room
only crowd Monday in the Fillmore Room of Squire Hall that the
future leadership of this country is going to come from college
campuses. McGovern, who said be has “always been involved with
young people,” outlined his priorities and the direction he believes the
govennmeht should take away from national defense spending and
towards internal civilian programs.
McGovern, who began his speech thanking all of the people who
helped him when he was at this University in 1971, discussed an
amendment which he planned to introduce before Cqngress yesterday.
He explained that it is a Transfer Amendment which .would cut S4.6
billion from the $130 billion military budget and mandate its use for
civilian programs such as alternative sources of energy, higher
&gt;-

education grants and upgrading the public transportation system,
specifically railroad.
McGovern mentioned a Western New York Peace Center leaflet
quoting Detroit Mayor Coleman Young as saying, “America’s greatest
enemy lies in the poverty and degradation of its people.”
McGovern said, “We have been too preoccupied with the danger of
an outside attack. We have pursued it into an obsession.” He stressed
that spending too much money on national defense has weakened the
nation in areas such as the modernization of civilian industry
a
necessity if the United States is to compete with nations such as
Germanyand Japan.

Bold leadership
McGovern,

/

wearing

a three-piece grey suit and flashing his
patented campaign snfle, told the receptive audience that “although
there is no issue today with as much passion as Vietnam, there are still
very fundamental issues which will determine the kinds of lives well
lead in years ahead. We have at least a minimum obligation to be
well-informed on public issues."
The one-time Presidential candidate, who said he wouldn’t trade
places with his opponent (Richard Nixon) today, analyzed and

commented on President Carter’s Presidency. He said that Carter’s tax
cut could be better spent in other ways: to generate jobs, rehabilitate
cities, reduce crime and create better public services. He remarked, “We
need bold and
leadership. We don’t have it in the White
House today. 1 give Carter full credit for trying to orient the country.”
One-term IMdeat
After a half hour talk, McGovern opened the floor to questions
saying* “It’s not too early to criticize Carter, but its premature to
discuss whether he will be a one-term president.” McGovefh said the
only name he has heard as a possible Democratic candidate is California
Governor Jerry Brown whom he is neither supporting nor opposing.
He said that Gerald Ford, Senator Howard Baker, Senator Robert Dole,
Governor John Connally, and Ronald Reagan are campaigning already

Trend toward depth
The committee found a general
trend at these schools to “loosen
up” distribution requirements and
allow students to take a narrower
range of courses, thus increasing
the intensity of study in one.
discipline. Many high level faculty
members believe thaf~ “depth” of
knowledge in one field of study
the primary attraction Of four
course load was more desirable
than the “breadth” obtained in a
five course load. This is the classic
“breadth vs.- depth” argument
that has been continually debated
in higher education circles. The
1969 leaning toward the “depth”
side of the argument coincided
with a general emphasis towards
“specialization” and preparation
for careers on the undergraduate
level.
The intent behind a change to
a four course policy, according to
the committee report,'was to

in financial jeopardy
Editor’s note: This is the last of a
two part series about the Erie
County Hospital lease conflict and
how it will affect this University.

by John Glionna
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The University’s School of
Medicine is in serious financial
jeopardy, as it faces a $2.5 million
shortage in funds because Erie
County will no longer pay the
salaries of doctors affiliated with
the University.
The reversal in the County’s
fiscal policy has come about
because Meyer Memorial Hospital
has been replaced by the new

Robert Ketter said he has been
informed that if Buffalo General
manages the new county hospital,
the educational portion, or
roughly half the cost of the
teaching affiliation, will have to
be paid by the University. This
$2.5 million figure covers salary

State should come up with the

hospital.”
,

Despite the two recent defeats
of the Buffalo General lease
proposal, Ketter expressed an
attitude of indifference towards
the eventual outcome, insisting
that the University still possessed
teaching affiliations with other
area hospitals which “could be
intensified” upon the failure of
Brie County and Buffalo General
to work out a compromise
agreement.
However, from a
public relations standpoint, he
re-emphasized the University’s
role as an impartial observer of
the
County
Legislature’s
proceedings. Said Ketter; “The
University cannot take a stand on
this issue because, by definition,
we as educators should not be
concerned with who runs the
hospital as long as it is able to
operate and offer the best level of
health care possible.”
Pannill echoed Keller's neutral
stand on the hospital lease issue.
“From an educational standpoint,
we are in support of either Erie
County
or i Buffalo

said. “The point is that we need

I believe that the change*I call for are necessary
in any set of general conditions. But they are all the
more imperative in the particular conditions
prevailing now. It is generally believed that
education in general and higher education in
particular is no more a “social priority” in the eyes
of the state and federal governments; and the
resources available to education have reached their
limiting values.
Consequently, the good administrators today,
are viewed, as those 'realists and pragmatists’ who
can accept and adapt to the above “social” priorities,
and specialize in making selective cuts and
reallocations. What we need to do, however, is to
challenge the so-called social priorities set for society
by its genuine “representatives” such as the Carnegie

�FEEDBACK
Monetary issues
Long and overdue
To the Editor.
This is a long overdue letter of complaint about
the
work/study office. It has given much
unnecessary grief tp many who have to enter it for
whatever reason. Access to Wes Carter, the
work/study supervisor, is closely guarded by the

women who sit behind the desks. We are concerned
with one woman in particular. She is apparently Wes
Carter’s secretary and generally rude and
antagonistic to students. She has “interrogated”
students wishing to see Carter as to their exact
purpose and “qualifications.” In addition, thei’e have
been times when she has unjustly humilated and
accused many of lying. For a person who serves an
intermediary function between student and
administration, this is especially deplorable behavior.
Examples of the goings on encountered this year
include:
1. A student tried to make an appointment with
Carter to discuss the summer work/study jobs in
N.Y.C. She was told by this secretary that he’d be
busy with meetings for three days. Easter break
followed and immediately after, the student again
went to the office and was told, after requesting an
appointment to come back later in the day when
Carter would be in. It was an inconvenient time for
the student. The next day, the student decided to
try to make an appointment by phone and was told
by another woman that her name would be put on a
list for a summer job in N.Y.C. and that Carter
would be calling her soon. After a week, Carter had
not called and the student went back to the office.
His secretary granted an appointment but not
withoht exasperatedly asking, “Well, why didn’t you
make the appointment earlier!?”
2. Another student tried to make an
appointment with Carter to discuss the same
program. (In March, the office had distributed
notices with the job descriptions and advised
students to make appointments with Carter as soon
as possible.) She was told by the person on the
phone that her name would be put 6n a list and that
she would be contacted soon. After a week, she went
to the office, found Carter and made an
appointment with him for 2;30 last Friday. He
assured her he would be there. He was not. The

To the Editor

student was informed by his secretary tha. he’d left
the office for the day. She inquired what the
appointment was about and when told, seemed
confused. She then asked if the student was
"eligible” for work/study. The student had been on
work/study for the past year and would be for the
next. It then dawned on Ifier what the secretary was
implying. “So you mean, did I apply for summer
work/study on the UB Financial Aid Form? No, I
did not.” “Then you can’t have the job.” And that
was that. The student was outraged that all the
wasted time spent had resulted in this. Many assume
the summer work/study program on the financial aid
application applies only to those who will be in
Buffalo for the summer and that the available jobs
are in Buffalo. No where is it mentioned that the
program extends out of the city. No where on the
circular about the program in N.Y.C. is information
regarding eligibility printed.
3. An office worker
was giving out information about the summer
work/study program to students in the hall. One
student enquired about the above mentioned circular
and was faced with the loud disclaimer of “What are
you talking about? "there are no summer jobs in New
York, only in Buffalo.”
4. Carter’s secretary is responsible for handing
out paychecks to students. The procedure is to ask
the student for his I.D. card and have the student
sign for the check. As faces become more familiar,
she has not asked for I.D. cards in some cases. One
student, used to not having to show I.D., was denied
her check because she didn’t have it with her this
time. After repeating that the secretary had always
given her check to her without an I.D., the secretary
loudly said, “Don’t ever say that. Don’t ever say that
I’ve given you a check without an I.D. card for
proof. I’ve never done that.”
To sum up our complaint, we are used to
dealing with long lines and bureaucracy in this
University but it is our right to demand efficiency,
information, helpfulness and courtesy from those in
a position to give it. The blatant disrespect for
students and nasty display of manners exhibited by
those employed in the work/study officedo not
belong anywhere.

The Spectrum is the single most important
publication for the large student community of
SUNYAB. Your April 24th issue has both errors and
ignorant assumptions.
Because of a mild familiarity with the Long

Case, I noticed these mistakes. In Joel DiMarco’s
article he states, “Sources state that defendant
Pasquale Vitale is expected to return to his job as a
blackjack dealer twhen in fact Pasquale Vitale is
a truck driver and defendant Joe Gerace is a
blackjack dealer.
In addition to this error, Brett Kline makes at
least two more errors in his editorial. Brett Kline
considers the decision', “sympathetic.” During
deliberation the jury has no Information regarding
possible sentences for charges being considered. The
jury found three defendants guilty of. criminal
negligent homicide by using the legal definition given
tjhehvatfd not'the sentences possible.
Later in the editorial Brett Kline takes it upon
himself to use the phrase coined by local
newspapers, “stomp.” If Brett Kline had attended
the trial rather than reading journalism concerning
the case he would know that the beating was not a
.

stomping.
In writing this letter I am not attempting to
begin a controversy. What worries me are the
controversies The Spectrum finds itself amidst in;
those issue| in which The Spectrum is the sole
coaveypr of information. For the future we must
hope that the student body is not swayed by
momentary issues created by The Spectrum filled

with error and

ignorance.

The way to protect
To the Editor.

In response to Susan MacGregor’s letter (April
24) concerning the BSU’s and PODER’s request for
more monfey, it appears to me that these two groups
arc among the few groups that know how to deal
with in the student government. These special
interest groups really do fight for the people they
represent (although sometimes literally). Their
request for more bucks in a time of known shortage
of funds, shows they know how to protect what

they have. Let’s face it, the “game” is student
government, the “rules” are politics. Any group that
voluntarily accepts, or worse offers to take a budget
cut (however magnanimous it makes them feel) is

a bunch of bananas.
As for UB acting as a “nursery school” for
“EOF students from NYC” to learn the “basic skills”
forget it. They might not know who Machiovelli was,
but then again who has the Prince’s share of the
treasury.

Vincent L. Bore Hi

Racist letter
To the Editor.
This is in reply to Susan MacGregor’s racist

letter regarding BSU and PODER budgets. It seems

fairly obvious that you are a Biggot Ms. MacGregor.
Before sprouting out your verbal garbage, you might
have tried to call either the SA Treasurer or BSU and
PODER for the answer to your simple questions.
By the way, they get their balls from the same
place we get ours!! If you could possibly try to think
about things supposedly taught to us all our lives,
namely there are two sides to every story, you might
not come off like such an idiot.
As far as appeasement and ridiculous budget
requests, these are matters that may need discussion,

The letter entitled “Too Much Money” that
appeared in the Monday edition of The Spectrum
was a phony, written with no intent other than to
cause trouble. No student at this University bears the
name Susan MacGregor, the name appearing at the

end of the letter. The letter was inadvertently
submitted for publication without having been run
through a name-check. It is unfortunate that this
year’s open letter,policy has been taken advantage of
by individuals whose connection with this University

but believe me they will be discussed, not beaten out
SA officers.
If you are going to bring up an incident what
happened two years ago with people who are not
even around anymore, you are more misguided than
I ever imagined. There are even two sides to that
story too. I was there at the time, so I do know
them,.do you?
.*■
I do agree with one part of your statements
“This is supposed to be oUr institution of higher
education, not a nursery school,” for short sighted
biggots. This is today, not two years ago and it’s
time you woke up Ms. MacGregor.

cannot be determined and/or who refuse to correctly

identify themselves in their correspondence in the
letters column. “Too Much Money” should have
been filed with other letters whose only apparent
purposes were to promote bigotry or racism, or
simply to cause trouble in the circular file.
The Spectrum apologizes to all Black Student
Union and PODER officials, and to all minority
students, insulted by this letter.

Compare education
To the Editor

In regards to the letter on Wednesday, April 24,
1978 (“Too much money”), I would like to reply by
saying thank you for expressing your opinion. That
might open some people’s eyes as to the ignorance
and biases floating around this University.
First of all, as to the reason for your outburst of
anger. During a budget evaluation, all organizations
ask for double the amount of money of what their
true expectations are, because they expect to get
cut. (When I had read that particular article, 1
questioned myself as to why The Spectrum only
mentioned BSU and PODER.)
As for your second point of view, about
minorities educational background:
No. 1 Not all minorities are EOF students and
vice versa. In fact there are now more white students
on EOP than there are minorities.
No. 2. EOP is for the educationally and
financially disadvantaged. Because of the two former
prerequisites, most students who are fortunate
enough to come to this University via this program
come from floor urban areas.
When you compare the education supplied to
the students in the suburbs of Long Island and little
towns and cities close to Buffalo and that of those
that come from poor neighborhoods you will find
that the education of the former is very superior (A
lot of my friends have had calculus, chemistry, etc.
in high school!!). If we had these courses and did
well, we- would not be excepted into the University
through EOP and would have no hope of entering
into higher education.
I don’t expect to change any of the inbred
thoughts of so many people, but at least to broaden
the minds of a few.

'Agent provocateurs'?
The reference to the ‘leaders’
of the demonstrations as “agent
provocateurs of the central
headquarters” of the Communist
reminds one of
McCarthyism. Does the author
seriously believe that the spring
unrest was the result of a directive
from Moscow or Peking?
The report is nothing more
than a blatant attempt to l?y the
blame for the trouble at the feet
of a few “hard-core student
agitators,” apparently based in the

�c plans don't include students
First, the general university
its faculty, staff and student are
powerless in the face of a higher authority. President Ketter offers no
real explanations and, in fact, any administrative comments are
received not from him but from others. Dr. Ketter deems it
“inappropriate" to either question the two cases o or to act on them.
We, however, feel it is both inappropriate and irresponsible for
Dr. Ketter to ignore university requests of investigations and possible
support. No administration, whether it be the state offices or Or.
Gelbaum, can operate accountable to no one.
Serious questions of university self-determination and academic
freedom exist. Because of the importance of such matters, we urged in
previous editorials that Dr. Ketter in some way become involved. We
know that Dr. Gelbaum cares not for the principle of academic
freedom and we realize that Albany often forgets the varied nature of
the state system. If Dr. Ketter still refuses involvment, we can orsly
surmise that he too cares nothing for either principle.

Mter the presenution, McGovern met with the Independents a
group of handicapped students at this University. McGovern promised
Independents’ President Wanda Miller that he would check into House
Bill 504 regarding accessibility for handicapped.
Later, speaking with the Buffalo press core, McGovern said he
disagreed with Senator Henry (Scoop) Jackson’s comment earlier this
week that Carter had done well on domestic policy. “In fact,”
McGovern' said, “Carter had done fairly well on foreign policy and
poorly onN domestic issues.” He cited the passage of the Panama Canal
treaty, Carter’s tough decision on the B-l bomber, and the sincerity of
the SALJ talks as evidence of Carter’s foreign policy strides.

Instead, he felt more attention should be paid to central problems such
as housing, transportation and energy. He' strongly endorsed the

Shortly before he left, the Senator said he would consider teaching
a course at ttliS University similar to the one he is currently teaching at
Columbia.. McGovern ruled out next semester because he will be
teaching at the University of Pennsylvania, but said he would consider
it for the ..spring of 1979. When asked if he would be attracted to
Buffalo, McGovern responded, “The University of Buffalo is an

You should also be ready to

of the organization. This will
show that you’ve given some
thought to the organization and
are serious about the job.

The on-campus interviewing program is scheduled from early
October to mid-December in the fall semester, and from mid-January
to late April in the spring semester. During this time representatives
from organizations from all areas of the country visit the campus to
interview candidates. Interview listings and a brief description of

Since the number of student
credit hours generated annually is
a primary consideration in how
much

money
received, administrators feared a
negative reaction to the four
course load from the DOB The
1977 Springer Report stated:
“Certainly the abrupt increase of
nearly ten percent in the credit
hours generated per enrolled
student in the first semester the
change was in effect did nothing
to reduce the suspicion that the
basis for resource allocations had
somehow been inflated.”
According to Fogel, while the
workload of the faculty remained
constant, the number of credit
hours generated suddenly jumped
so that the administration could
increased
actually
justify
allocations for faculty lines. Said
“The DOB argued that we

students because we were giving
more credit for the same courses
that were taught in previous
years.” As a result, according to
the Springer Report, the DOB put

to resolve this
“inflation” of the credit hour.

University eventually reverted to a

1977 estimated that 98 to 99

�Massaro’s OT score a
Lacrosse club win
by David Davidson
Spectrum Staff Writer

Frank Massaro scored on a hard shot with 1:45 remaining in the

first overtime to give the lacrosse Bulls a 9-8 win over Eisenhower
College. For Buffalo, it was their third straight win the first at home.
-

Massaro led the offense with three goals with teammate Ken Cohen
scoring two.
Buffalo jumped out early, taking a 4-0 lead during the first period.
Massaro, Cohen, William Higgs and Larry Leva scored first period goals.
Goalie Frank DiTondo held the Generals in check, allowing one tally
late in the first stanza.
However, Eisenhower seemed to get its offense working at the
start of the second period. Tim Holt tied the game at 4-4 and on the
play, DiTondo injured his thigh and was' removed from the game.
Spanky Vitale replaced him, allowing three more goals from the
Generals’ sticks. Eisenhower took a 7-6 lead at halftime.
Frank Betely replaced Vitale for the second half in the Buffalo
net. Prior to the game, Betely was considered doubtful to see any
action due to a severely sprained ankle. Despite his immobility, Betely
reacted quickly when the Generals attempted to put the sphere in the
net.

Hard nosed
Both teams scored one goal during the third period as the
defensive sticks tightened at both ends. Charlie Ptak, Jim Skotak and
Don Lund played hard nosed lacrosse for Buffalo, limiting the
Generals’ attack to just nine shots during the second half.
The Bulls played their sharpest half as a team this season as the
midfielders were always in the right place at the right time. Co-captain
Leva moved the ball up to the attackmen unselfishly and with pinpoint
accuracy Craig Kirkwood was hampered by an elbow injury suffered in
the second half, but was still able to come up with an above average
performance.
The action thickened as UB trailed by a goal with just under two
minutes remaining. Bob Kennedy of Buffalo set up John Lindsay with
a beautiful feed in front, for a dramatic game tying goal. For Lindsay, a
Sweet Home High graduate, it was his first goal for Buffalo. Both teams
played out the final minute of regulation without scoring, sending the
match into sudden death overtime.
Betely and Eisenhower goalkeeper David Bollinger stopped tight
shots over the first two minutes of the four minute overtime. With the
clock running down, Massaro came through in the dutch, shooting the
bell over Bollinger s left shoulder for (he game ending goal. Massaro,
who took fifteen shots on goal during the game, admitted his shots
weren’t too hit, but was more than happy with the final one.

�UB’s Sue Fulton places sixth in Bowling nationals

country.

As Sue Fulton sat down to
talk, shades of her Miami tan were
still visible. She had returned a
week earlier from that sunny
Florida city where she had
competed in the National Singles
Collegiate Bowling Championship.
And compete she did, as Sue
finished sixth overall in singles
play of thirty-two invited bowlers,
and, more importantly, led her
team to the doubles title. The
doubles win was nothing new,
however
as Sue had won it
two years earlier in
before,
Denver, Colorado.
Winning itself is nothing new
to Fulton. In her thirteen or so
—

years as a bowler, Sue has won
than
more
her
share
of
tournaments. She started in the
sport at the tender age of eight,
prompted by her parents, who
hoped to cure her of her shyness.
Being bowlers themselves, the
Fultons wanted to see Sue get
involved in something regularly
and bowling seemed the natural
choice.

All-around Sue
Sue’s bowling developed into a
hobby, nothing much more. As a
student at Kenmore East High
School, she competed in every
other sport, was president of the
school’s Athletic Association and
participated in intramural bowling

Wind a factor

Harriers take second
in three team meet

-

,

The UB track team (with 61 points) finished second to Albany
(133) but ahead of Binghamton (13) at a triangular meet Saturday,
where the real victor was the Albany weather.
The winds drove in hard from the north. According to coach
Walter Gantz, “The war was not against the track and the opponents,”
but against the wind. Bill Regan, who took second in the javelin
(154’9”), the high jumb (6’), and the long jump (19*6V4”), said, “There
was no way of telling what the wind would do.” Albany’s Don Ross,
one of the best jumpers in the state, barely beat Regan in the long
jump by one fourth of an inch.
The strong winds didn’t stop Mike Fischer (31:39.7) and Lanny
Doan (31:44) from placing one-two in the six mile run and qualifying
for the state championships. Fischer and Doan ran the first three miles
together at national qualifying pace but unfortunately couldn’t hold
that rate.
The only other first place finish for Buffalo was John Ryerson
who ran a hard 4:25.3 mile. Other strong finishers were turned in by
Ken Dole (2:04) in the half mile and Mick Corcoran in the 100 and
2 20/yard dashes, who both placed second in their events.
The field events were affected most by the wind. Nick Saccamano
was leading the triple jump with a leap of 38’2V4”. Behind him was Bill
Condon of Albany. Condon came up for his lasGjump and the wind
surprisingly died for a moment leaving the way,, for Condon to go
40’1V4” to win that event. In other field events John Centra thftew the
disc 120’2” for a second place there.
mrii
Binghamton was forced to go to the meet with it very small squad.
Most of the Binghamton thin clads were observing t)ie Jewish Holiday,
and thus the team was not in a competitive position. Buffalo is having
its own manpower shortage. The Bulls two best men in the 100 and
220 yard dash Andy Carle and Bob Reiss quit the team to spend more
time at their books. This hurt the already small squad which now

numbers about 23. The Bulls record is 3-4.

&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;

Virtually every time Delia took
a stand on a controversial issue, he
made a bevy of enemies. This was
due in part to the headstrong
approach which the President
took in making decisions. But it
was more than that. Delia didn’t

them. The major battles fought

felt that SASU
had been

such non-member schools as
SUNY Stony Brook in an attempt
to further its own finances rather
than fighting for the survival of its
faithful constituents. “I’U be
damned,” he said, “if I’m going to
spend $11,000 (in dues] to have
someone fight against us.”
The principle target of Delia’s
anger was SASU President John
Duggan, who, Delia claimed, was
leading the charge for Stony
Brook construction. When word
came that Stony Brook would
receive top priority in SUNY-wide
construction, the outraged Delia
presented before the Student
Senate a proposal calling for tf
Buffalo withdrawal from SASU.
Upon receiving word of Delia’s
actions, SASU official? made a
rare appearance at this campus.
The Senate debate soon became a
one-on-one battle between Delia
and Duggan, with the Senate
finally voting 16-9-5 to remain
in SASU.

�Kincade: opinion on Soviet armament
by Nevan Baldwin
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The fear of being surrounded
hostile, nuclear armed
countries is forcing the Soviet
Onion to arm itself at an
increasing rate, according to arms
control expert William Kincade.
Kincade .spoke at a forum
attended by about 40 persons
Thursday evening in Haas Lounge.
Kincade began by detailing the
‘*relevant*moder for provocation
of nuclear war. He noted that
current political policymakers
stress the concept of the rapid,
attack
a
unprovoked
by
superpower. However, he stated,
“If you look at the history of the
world, you will find that surprise
attacks are infrequent and not
often very successful.” He further
remarked, “Studies of warfare
show that a more relevant model
for the onset of war is one similar
to the situation which evolved
into World War I.” In that
instance, Kincade explained that
World War I occurred when,
“communication broke down,
trivialities were distorted, and
shouts of war were more apt to be
heard.”
Kincade, who is the Executive
Director of the Arms Control
Association, gave a speech entitled
“The Nuclear Arms Race: the
Race Nobody Wins.” He

Kin cade noted.
Kin cade asked the audience to,
“look at the world from a Soviet
standpoint The United States is

by

superpower alone while Russia
must face a threat by all other
nuclear powers. They are not on
friendly terms with Great Britain,

The bill came forward slowly,
with modifications, to become the
S-l in 1975. “The bill reflected a
respect for violence, a high
commitment to the use of
segregation as a problem solver,
and a- belief that any means the
govemmpnt could use to repress
opposition was acceptable,” said
Qarjt, “The problem was that the
bill was an emotionally charged
reaction to all the trouble that
had been caused in the 1960s. It
had a range of legislative proposals
that you could demonstrate
would effectively outlaw every
type of opposition to the war in
Vietnam
that
had
been
experienced."
j
As an example, a group of
demonstrators in the 1960s
discovered a railroad used for

transporting napalm bombs and
sat on the tracks to block trains
S-l had a provision to make that a
federal crime (to exist along with
37 other state and local laws to
the same effect). “The hypocrisy
is pretty clear,” testified Clark.
“How would you enforce it; with
Marines?’’ It was a fraud! It was
an emotional reaction.”

Kin cade gave this summation:

speaker termed this “die most

�SA requires Senate
OK to remove execs
The Student Association (SA) unanimously passed a motion
preventing the Executive Committee from removing an executive
officer of Sub-Board I, Inc. without Senate approval. The motion was
drawn up as a result of the present Executive Committee’s dismissal of
Jeff Lessoff as Vice Chairman of Sub Board, a move which many
considered to be “purely political.”
SA President Richard Mott voted for the resolution only weeks
aftet he partook in LcssofTs dismissal. Mott said he believed that
removal of executive officers was a power “that should rest with the
Senate.”
When asked Jjf he saw a-conflict between his vote and his handling
of Lessoff, Mott simply said that if the rule had been in effect,
Lesson's removal would have been handled differently. He termed the
resolution a good one since it “limits chances of an arbitrary removal
due to personality conflicts.” He added that LcssofTs firing had
nothing to do with such conflicts and he believes that the Senate would
have voted to remove Lessoff anyway. Lessoffs successor, Jane Baum,
concurred with Mott’s opinions
In response to criticism that Lessoff was fired while he was
worldng on crucial projects, Mott said, “It’s funny he had saved all of
those projects for the last three weeks of his term.”
J

Sour grapes

The sponsor of the resolution, SA Speakers Bureau Chairman and
Senator David Hartzband commented, “The resolution wasn’t a
personal knock to Rich Mott. I think he’s doing a good job. It was a
knock to this power of the President because 1 felt he was too powerful
m this respect.”
Harzband commented that he introduced the motion because he
believed Lessoff had been treated “very unfairly” in his removal.
Hartzband suggested that lie echoed the feeling of many people
working in the SA offices.
Former SA President Dennis Delia blocked Lessoffs attempt to
pass the resolution last month by utilizing a rare presidential power,
postponing the motion for erne Senate meeting. Lessoffs term expired
that night and hence, he was unable to prevent the Executive

Jane Baum was elected Thursday as Chairman of the Student

Baum succeeds Mitch Zoler whose term expires following the next
Board meeting scheduled for Thursday.
Also elected to an officer’s position was current Sub Board
Publication Division Director Mike Volan who becomes Vice
Chairman. Volan will retain his division directorship until a new
director is chosen within the next few weeks. He succeeds Jeff

with the new SA administration. Baum had been serving as Vice

Chairman in the interim.
Sub-Board Treasurer Dennis Black was re-elected for another

to serving as Treasurer again.
Black noted that his re-election will “provide the background

One of the most bizarre and
savage murders in American
history was the subject of author
and prosecutor Vincent BugUosi’s
lecture Wednesday night in the
Fillmore Aoom. Bughosi, chief
prosecutor in the celebrated
Charles Manson case and author
of the best selling book Heiter
Skelter
based mi the story of
the Manson family
spoke for
two hours before a spellbound
audience and then answered
questions for an another hour.
As he unravelled the full
account of the well publicized
trial, BugUosi interrupted his talk
to scold distracting photographers
in the standing room only
audience.
According to Bugliosi, Manson
did not act alone, unlike other
mass murderers in the past such
as the Boston strangler. Manson
was the leader of a “family” of
young people who were virtually
under his complete control. They
ifiurdered on orders from Manson,
and although not all of them were
always veiling to kill, they never
questioned his authority. While
there may have been up to 50 or
60 followers of Manson, Bugliosi
said there were about 24 “hard
core” members of the family,
mostly girls between the ages of
13 to 27.

Manson’s influence over his

According to Bugliosi, Manson
believed he had

evidence that the Beatles were

after
hearing a sudden burst of machine
gun fire and a distant, almost
inaudible voice, crying, “Charlie,

Frenzied killers
Bugliosi, who described the
details of the Manson crimes, trial
and psyche, told the crowd,
“Manson created a band of
frenzied killers. They relished
killing. Victims who were stabbed
to death, were
found with
mortem
hundreds of post
wounds.” He remarked that the
victims of “the political slaying?,”
who were selected at random,
“were
white
and
always
prosperous.” Bugliosi said, “On
the night after the Tate murder,
Manson selected the LaBianca
home after cruising through
suburban Los Angeles looking for
more victims.”
Bugliosi said he was able to
prove members of the Manson
family were “legally sane” at the
time
they
committed the
atrocities. The test for legal
insanity is whether the accused
knows that what he'has done is
wrong in the eyes of, and
according tor the standards of
foclpty. “The Manson family
deidy knew what they did was
wrong because they fled from the
scene and attempted to cover the
evidence of their crimes,” said
Bugliosi. “The family killed out of
love for Charlie. They were not
coerced. They acted voluntarily.”

this year. What accounts for this discrepancy?
I think appeasement of minority students on
this campus has gone far enough. This is supposed to
be an institution of higher education, not a nursery
school where EOP students from NYC come to team
reading and writing, those basic skills they should
have teamed years before.
As for the BSU, the more money they get, the
more funds they abuse. Don’t we all remember 2
years ago, right around Christmas vacation, when the
SA treasurer was “roughed
for not bowing flown
to the additional monetary requests of 3 BSU
"toughs.’’
Do they represent enough black students to
receive $50,000, or do they expect their phone bill
to be quite excessive next year.
Thank you for allowing me to express my
opinion and I believe the opinion of many others.

�Come on out
Editor.

I would like to respond to the letter of Larry
Knipfing in the April 14 issue of The Spectrum.
Your idea of Bllicott Demonstration Day is fantastic.
Here we have a chance of overcoming the most
“talked” about prpblem at this University, Apathy. I
think that every student must attend and lend their
support. Especially at a time when pressure is being
brought down upon the administration. Come down
and voice your opinion. A large turnout (and there
will be one) will call for media coverage. We can not

FEEDBACK

be ignored. The administration will be&gt; forced to
attend or at least pay attention to our needs. There
will be bands there and now that winter is losing its
grip upon Buffalo, it will be an enjoyable way to
spend a Saturday afternoon. So come down on April
29. Bring your lunch, a blanket, a frisbee, your
questions, and most Importantly, yourselves. All
clubs, colleges, organizations, faculty meinben and
concerned members of the administration arc invited
and urged to come. See you at the circle outside the
circle on April.29. More Power To The Students!!

The last person in the room forgot to lock the

I wish to state publicly that after my many

fullest cooperation in our common desire to steer

Hidden malcontent

Tennis and Lacrosse
This is in reply to April 19th’s letter about
tennis court use and abuse. Your cause is certainly a
noble one, but your means to an end are purely
bush. To Wendy Weisler and the rest of the
twenty-four simpletons who co-penned that letter:
get your facts straight before you point an accusing
finger. UB’s lacrosse team used the tennis courts
only twice early in the season while snow was still on
the courts. You’re getting a raw deal, but look for
your scapegoat elsewhere! UB sports teams need

your support, not misdirected malice. Hopefully,
we II see you at our game against Oswego on
Saturday and the rest of the season.

I’m disappointed, to say the least, in the. way
the Faculty Senate has dealt with the recent
allegations against President Ketter/
Granted, this is no Ketter-Gate affair, but some
very serious claims have been levied against our
president and his administration. It is unfortunate
that neither the College Council, nor the
Facility-Senate, nor the. administrators who
whispered their malcontent behind a facade of
loyalty, had the guts to openly discuss the matter,
let alone take a stand.
\
At last Tuesday’s Faculty-Senate meeting, I
asked what, if any, action
Senate would be
taking pertaining to the alleged disenchantment with
President Ketter. Judging from thgir hesistancy to
respond, iLwas evident that either I was presenting
something entirely new to them 0£hty question was
inappropriate for such a dignified body. Newton
Gower, the chairman-elect of the Faculty Senate,
taee'andsaid something to thh effect that members
should apply for the higher Senate positions to
adequately deal with problems such as this. Anyway,
he w«a addressing long-term solutions and thus
the exigencies of the present situation.
Jonathan Reichert, chairman of the Senate,
added that no one had approached him or brought
uj)
any resolutions concerning
this matter,
indiiiiating that there was nothing to do about it.
When are we going to brake out of the hideous,
bureaucratic bind that has engulfed this University?
Let’s actively confront our crises and honestly seek
the best solutions.

The Amherst Police wanted nothing to do with

then suggested that 1 accompany them to their

agreed and followed the unmarked Campus Security
car to their offices on Millesport Hwy. Once inside
the office building I was informed that I was to be

time one officer repeatedly chanted that I should be
locked up and another told me that 1 should be
locked up and shipped off to Nebraska immediately.
I was placed in a smaH room to await the outcome of
their investigation.
After two hours of waiting I overheard one
officer say that they had just decided to call
Nebraska about the matter. At this I called my
attorney and explained my aituation. He told me
that he would confer with his associate who

on duty said that even though 6y identification was
valid they still were not sure that I was not this
fellow Lloyd from Nebraska and that it could take
up to another five hours to clear the matter. I then
called back my attorney who spoke to a Mr. Griffin,
the head: of Campus Security. After their brief
telephone conversation I was released.
i am forced to choose between two equally
distasteful conclusions. The first is that this is an
overt case of pohtical harassment. The evidence
marshalling for this position is that when I asked one
of the officen if he knew what I was doing when I
was on the Amherst Campus, he answered that I was
leaflcting for the Daily World which is the newspaper
of the Communist Party, U S A. They also required
three sequential computer searches to come up with

justify
the apprehension

I'don’t feel compelled to decide between the
alternative conclusions. 1 do, however, feel

from Mr. Griffin and Campus Security for my
inconvenience, but also monetary reimbursement for
the legal expenses and lest time they forced me to

To Our Readers: Serious enough questions have

some kind of official inquiry? Such an inquiry
would moat appropriately be undertaken by either
the UB College Council, the SONY Board pf

The Spectrum urgcf all readers to write letters
requesting an investigation of President Ketter by
any or all of these three bodies. AB the tetters need

“Decisions made by the collective

Haparsteck said.

Wednesday marked the grand
re-location opening of Emma, the
Buffalo women’s bookstore at the
corner of Main and Greenfield
Streets. Located on Fillmore
Avenue for the past two years, the
collectively-run bookstore moved
mainly so that it would be more
accessible to the community and
to women, said member Jessica

Dilworth.

that tl\e move would further

game gave the Lacrosse Bulls a stunning 9-8 upset win
over the Slippery Rock Rockets Wednesday afternoon. Spendie’s goal
came after Slippery Rock fought off a 7-3 deficit in the third period.
The Rockets tied the game at eight all with just over six minutes
remaining.
The Bulls played well at the outset of the game. Except for a fluke
goal which gave the Rockets an early 1-0 lead, the club executed well
enough to build a half-time lead of 6-2. Midfielders Craig Kirkwood,
Larry Leva, Vince Whiteside, and Spendle were Ml sharp during the
initial half, passing the ball with unerring precision. Goalie Prank
DiTondo was unbeatable in the first half, stopping nine of eleven shots
directed at him. “They shot pretty well,” commented DiTondo,

The Bulls traveled to Slippery Rock with only fifteen players,

junior majoring in math, physks or engineering, the Navy hfs a
If you're
program you should know about.
It's called the Nuclear Propulsion Officer Candidate-Collegiate Program
(NUPOC-C for short) and if you qualify, you can earn as much as $650 a month
right through your senior year. Then after 16 weeks of Officer Candidate
School, you'll receive an additional year of advanced technical education. This
would cost you thousands in civilian school, but in the Navy, we pay you. And
at the end of the year of training, youII receive a $3,000 cash bonus.
It isn't easy: There are fewer than 400 openings and only one of every six
applicants will be selected. But if you make it, you'll have qualified for an elite
engineering training program. With unequaled hands-on responsibility, a $24,000
salary in four years, and gilt-edged qualifications for jobs in private industry
should you decide to leave the Navy later. (But we don't think you'll want to.)
Ask your placement officer to set up an interview with a Navy representative
when he visits the campus on April 28th, or contact your Navy representative at
846-6844.
The NUPOC-Collegiate Program. It can do more than help you finish college; it
can lead to an exciting career opportunity.

&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).

FOUR BY ACCLAMATION: The Stud.nl Senate,
with a small crowd looking on, convened Wednesday
for an emergency meeting in Haas Lounge and
passed by acclamation four resolutions concerning
administrative "disenchantment" with University

President Robert Ketter. It also returned the
ultimate power of choosing the site of “Springiest"
back to Director of Activities and Services Barry
Rubin, who will most likely schedule the event at
Amherst (see page 2).

Director of Housing Madison
Boyce was pleased and impressed
by SA’s efforts to Open up
additional bed space for students.
“We would be foolish not to work
with SA,” Boyce said, “especially
in a situation which would benefit
students.”

Boyce

was quick to defend
Housing’s policy of temporarily
tripling students saying, “We are
providing students a service by
housing them since the only other
alternative they would have, if
they were refused space, would be
to seek off-campus housing.” The

indicated,

response to charges that Housing

did not allow a sufficient margin
of error in determining no-shows,
“Our determination of this factor
is based on previous year’s data
and is a sound predictor.’'
The departments located in
Ellicott are upset by SA’s findings
and a confrontation may loom if
these departments are asked to
relinquish space. According to
Political Science Chairman Robert
Stem, whose department ha$

Black Studies Chairman James

statement

SA believes that its proposal
will benefit both students and

Symbolic gesture
In other business the Senate was asked by Minority Affairs
Coordinator, Abed Mussalam, to reconsider an April 12 motion which
froze the International Affairs- Committee budget. The freeze was
prompted by Mussalam’s political comments at the International Fiesta
on March 18. An SA Senator asked for assurance that a problem would
not recur.
The motion was passed by acclamation after Mott stated, “The
previous resolution was a symbolic gesture expressing the Executive

In

1966, then Director of

would be used for “a maximum of
seven years.” A five year lease was
signed with the Maret Corporation
of Pittsburgh, with yearly options
up to 10 years. Considering the
state of stalled construction at
Amherst, Ridge Lea will remain a
rented reality for quite some time.

�CA extends NFG
boycott; protect spirit
Citizen Alliance (CA) last Saturday voted to extend the National
Fuel Gas (NFG) bill boycott with a “seasonal adjustment stragegy”
despite surrendering to NFG over $50 thousand in back payments, to
prevent shut-off of services to the more than 400 supporters of the
■•&gt; &gt;
boycott.
y’&gt;'
The seasonal adjustment strategy involves the withholding of
$17,76 from one utility bill during the summer and fall months to be
collected by CA, with the balance of the bill paid to NFG to avoid
shut-pff. “In this manner, we can protect our boycotters and still
continue’in the spirit of the boycott, explained-CA Co-director Mary
Ann Hatnann. “It will also make it easier for Us to begin again in
January if we need to, and we can be out recruiting during the summer
while the (PSC) vote is pending.”
The original plan to have the public turn in its gas bills and
funds
payments to CA, who would then withhold the
from NFG, resulted in -only 400 people contributing just over $50
thousand. However, the total NFG bills outstanding at the end of the
100 days set aside for the boycott numbered over 19 thousand and
represented approximately $4 million. "National Fuel Gas’ admission

Recent

news stories have
highlighted the Soviet Union’s
new hunter-killer satellites that
can seek out other satellites in
orbit and destroy them. These
satellites have apparently shaken
up certain segments of the U.S.
national security establishment.
Despite
criticism
from
super-hawks who want the United
States to develop and deploy
hunter-killers of its own, the
White House has succeeded in
getting the Kremlin to agree to
talks aimed at banning the

satellites.
Misleading reports
To those of us unfamiliar with
the Strangelovian machinations of
the arms race, our government’s
reasons for wanting the satellite
ban are as mysterious as are the
Soviet government’s reasons for
building the killer satellites in the
first place. News reports have
provided us with explanations,
though, as I shall explain, they
have been misleading. Take, for
example, the article entitled,
“Russians Asked to Negotiate
Satellite Killer Ban” (March 19,
It
states:
“Preventing an arms race in space
has become an important goal of
the Carter Administration in view
of the growing American reliance
on satellites for a variety of
civilian and military tasks, such as
monitoring compliance to arms
control agreements and providing
early warning in the event of a

missile attack.”
the

believe that the Soviet Union is

violate mutually

agreements. (Once again the
Russians are up to no good and
it’s our job to stop them!) But
this analysis fails to note a most
important fact about the arms
race and the balance of terror
which has thus far prevented a
nuclear holocaust. That fact is

Couldn’t take advantage
Soon after the Democratic Convention, public opinion polls
showed McGovern almost hopelessly behind Nixon- Unlike underdog
candidates of the past, however, McGovern did not make significant
gains as the campaign progressed Instead, he further alienated voters
by presenting his views in a disjointed fashion. Spending most of his
time retracting and clarifying his statements. He soon became known as
the Triple A candidate, standing for amnesty, acid and
abortion.
Perhaps McGovern’s greatest failure was his inability to make the
war in Vietnam his issue. The war had raged for four years under Nixon
but McGovern failed to seize the potential Achille’s heel and turn it on
the incumbent President.
McGovern’s history in national politics dates back 25 years. In
1953 he became the South Dakota Democratic Party Executive
Secretary and in 1956 and 1958 was elected to the House of
Representatives He joined the Kennedy Administration in 1960 as the
first Director of the United States Food for Peace Program and Special
Assistant to the President. McGovern was elected as a Senator in 1962,
and 1968, and then again in 1976 after the Presidential debacle.
McGovern is currently the Chairman of the Senate Select
Committee on Nutrition and Human Needs and is next in line for the
Chairmanship of the Senate Agricultural and Forestry Committee and
chairman of its subcommittee on Agricultural Credit and Rural
Electrification. Tie is also on.the Senate Foreign Relations Committee
and Chairman of its subcommittee on Near Eastern and’ South Asian
Affairs.

Ketter must go
we must pursue his resignation with all deliberate
speed. Let’s give him the foot as unceremoniously as
he did John Telfer. We are not his niggers and this is
not a plantation. The scoundrel must go.

To the Editor:

Deserving debate
The Student Association Executive Committee is taking cautious,
but significant, steps in forging an official stand on the current
leadership crisis in {ha Ketter Administration. The Committee's four
resolutions, passed by the Student Senate Wednesday, are firm but
reasonable expressions of both doubt in Katter's administrative ability
and the need to investigate, publicly, the allegations swirling about {he
President. Although a trifle imprecise in their wording, the resolutions
show a dear thinking, informed approach to what may prove to be
SA's most important set of decisions in yean.
We wish we had the same praise for the Student Senate. By passing
the four resolutions in a matter of minutes without debate, without
discussion without even clarification on the wording
the Senate
showed an alarming disregard for both the severity of the current crisis
and the implications of SA's proposed stand on that crisis. The Senate
voted by aoc'aimation to condemn the Faculty Senate and College
Council both of which wield considerably more influence and power
than SA without so much as a hand raised.
While this may be a strong show of support for the Executive
Committee's judgement, it may also hint at a careless and uninformed
attitude on the Senate's part. In a way, each person present in Haas
Lounge shares some responsibility for not interrupting the steamrolling
acclaimetions and urging intelligent debate. But Senate members must
be singled out. It is their responsibility to insure that on this gravest
of matters SA is doing the right thing.
The resolutions, though all well-intentioned, deserve debate. It's
that simple.

A University staffed with learned scholars and

thrice blessed if its issues and concerns are fairly
presented and discussed. I regret to say that this did
not occur in your lead story concerning President
Robert L. Ketter in your issue of April 17.
The article was based on rumors that were
admitted to be false, rumors such as the “Powder
Keg” reference that will prove to be false, and to a
great extent, innuendos and allegations made by

that the conference failed to receive mention in the
Backpage section on the day of the event. This is in
spite of hand delivery of all information on the
conference at least a week before hand.
We have since been advised that had we been
sponsoring a wet T-shirt contest, or some event of
similar relevance to student life, we might have made
the front page. Very well, since the response from
those who did attend was so favorable, we are
planning to hold another conference with the same
format next March, and all participants will be
wearing wet T-shirts. That’s eleven months away, Mr
Rosen. Think The Spectrum can handle it within
that time?

To the Editor.

As you may know, and as your readers probably
do not, there was a student-run, University-wide
conference on communicative behavior this past
Friday and Saturday. This conference featured
students’ research on this broad topic, and the
participants included students and faculty of eight
departments in the social sciences from U.B. and
Buffalo State.

One would imagine that an all student
conference on communication might be of interest
to the students of this University, and to the major
campus media. The local newspapers were interested,
Channel 7 News was interested, even the Reporter
was interested. However, The Spectrum seemed to

time to act

We find it surprising and somewhat disturbing that the Faculty
Senate would not tike the opportunity or perhaps the responsibility
to question President Ketter on the alleged disenchantment in his
Administration. Considering Ketter's open invitation Tuesday to
respond to any Senator's inquiries, we see- no reason why Senate
with ail due respect to the President
members did not
ask for a
response to the flurry of allegations against him.
It is our opinion that .the Faculty Senate
as one of the most
influential and important representative bodies in the University
would be dearly within its rights to verbalize the deep
community
concerns that even Ketter admitted filled the room Tuesday.
Michael Yates
Moreover, with the Faculty dearly looking for more influence in
University-wide decisions, we would expect the Senate to take a
leadership role itself and at least initiate public debate on the current
crisis.

To the Editor

This past weekend, the Community Action
Corps sponsored a 30 hour dance rqarathon to
benefit the Muscular Dystrophy Association. Several
months of planning went into this event and I would
like to take this opportunity to thank the entire
University community for their support and
cooperation in this endeavor.
For the first time in my four years as a student
at U.B., 1 saw what several student run groups and
organizations can accomplish when people really
Because of

the assistance and cooperation of student groups, the

administration, the Buffalo community, as well as
the U.B. students themselves, we were able to raise
over twice as much money as we had expected our
final total was close to $7000.
Achievement of such goals is only possible when
cooperation and constructive interaction occur. The
groups involved in the marathon displayed the
ability to obtain and maintain (with tremendous
enthusiasm) the spirit and strength to make this
marathon a tremendous success. Again, thank you all
for your support and cooperation (I know we will
see it again next year).

Dancing for Dystrophy presented a dicotamy of
dimensionless dilemasmas for defunct dancers, yet
appreciation and approval with apprehention of
attraition appeared to attract' a number of nature
nuts, nures, novices, and noteables who were the
nucleus of the night. College kids came in couples,
with collected canisters, committed to conquer the

concrete. Coffee and caffeine kept the couples
consistantly conscious, while callus corns were
consoled by comforting cold packs. The effort of the
ebullient earthlings entwined epitomized the
enthusiasm. The epitome to this event is its
eminence, and as evidence to the excitement, so the

One of the biggest problems around, especially
at this University, is apathy. Sure, everybody

become a reality, a successful reality, apathy must be
extinguished. The present “establishment” calls us
the leaders of tomorrow. Why wait until tomorrow,
tomorrow may never come. Let’s show The
“establishment” that we are ready and willing to act
today so there will be a tomorrow.
On Saturday, April 29, come to Ellicott, wave
your banners, show your signs, chant your slogans,
or, if none of this appeals to you, come out and

to show our power, the power that can’t be stagnant

Not enough room
To the Editor

in becoming an ambassador, are you), Wilkeson

The time to pick rooms for next year has
passed. A game of “how can I get a double and still
live in Ellicott?” A manhunt for friends with more
semesters in the dorms than you, or who lives in a
college and has a lot of points with them. Strike out?
Well, you can always trudge forward on your own,
take a chance with the lottery, and end up at
Bethune (yes, I know it’s the art building!). Housing
will find a way to put you where you don’t want to
be.

You don’t want to live in a college, but want to
live in Ellicott? You can forget Fargo and Porter.
They are entirely colleges. There’s always Richmond
(not too appealing, huh). Red Jacket (not interested

(smaller rooms and not as many lounges) or good ole
Spaulding (isolated). No, threatening housing will
not help!
There is a problem with housing in Ellicott: the
colleges take up too much room and are
concentrated in the same areas. Each Quad should
have a part set aside that is not part of th| colleges.
These parts should not be bombarded by the nearest
college either. I know it’s important to recruit
people, but aren’t signs enough? Do you have to be

bugged by an RA to come to some coffee hour or
TGIF (thank God it’s Friday) party. The situation is
getting a bit out of hand.

I would like to criticize the final exam policy at
fhis University. Many students begin preparing for
finals weeks in advance. As of now, there are
approximately three weeks left and the exam
schedule has not been posted. How can students
properly plan ahead on their study when they don't
know the date, or order of their exams. There should
be no reason why this information cannot be made
available sooner.

Simple Gifts is at present the only free facility
Buffalo providing women in crisis with temporary
shelter and food. We have been operating for the
past year and a half with overworked staff and
inadequate housing, financed through donations and
more recently a GETA grant. However, without your
immediate help we cannot survive. Simple Gifts is in
a crisis itself; we must find adequate free housing
within the next thirty days. We need a facility and
the materials necessary to furnish arid operate a

donations which can be used for Staff salary or to

spend “half of their time” in the elevators, and
fuming expectant riders who see no reason to spend

The elevator service in Furnas Hall is fully
guaranteed
to reduce the efficiency of anyone
who uses the building. The main reason is the delays
caused by the slow opening land closing of the car
doors.
There is a minimum delay period of about ten
seconds for which the doors remain open and the
riders can be seen staring helplessly into the
corridors as the doors open and stay open in their
inexorable majesty. (In contrast, the elevators in
Chpen Hall dose briskly at the touch of a button.)
This “short” period may seem to be trivial, but
accumulated over the numerous stops the elevators
nuke in the tallest budding in the Amherst campus,
it sums up to irritated riders who see no reason to

I would like to respond to a few remarks made
1&gt;y Pig House in the Friday issue of The Spectrum.
Before I do this, however, I would like to state that
pigs are being done a great injustice when their name
is used to signify such a creature as the Pig House.
First of all, P. House attempts to show that
because certain species of animals ore domesticated,
it is all right to brutalize them, and later, eat them.
He supports this contention by pointing out that
without being domesticated, these animals would
have become extinct long ago. This notion is indeed
an odd one, for it seems that this statement implies
that existence is superior to non-existence. Since
non-existence is nothing, how can we compare
existence which can be measured to that which

.

“half of their time” waiting for them.
The official explanation is that sufficient delay
must be given for handicapped people to use the
elevators. No one would dispute this. But how about
that magic button
Close Sesame (marked “Close
Door”). This is meant for people who don’t require
the delay to override it. But no! The delay override
has itself been delayed. I have often seen harried
people frustratedly jabbing this button while cynical
“regulars” watch scornfully and the elevators extend
their arms wide open waiting for the whole floor to
make it.- Will someone please save everyone’s
valuable time by activating the “Close Door”
buttons? Please don’t handicap the unhandicapped.

Stale bread
To the Editor:

that fresh rolls are not just a dream. Last semester
we were served fresh rolls at least three times a week.
Come on Richmond Food Service, what'S the
matter
with youf The other dining halls don’t seem to have
any trouble keeping their rolls fresh?
The only explanation that I can-see, is that
Richmond is getting all of Red Jacket’s leftover
dinner rolls, or there is some big FSA executive who
is trying to get his patrons to eat less bread. If the
latter is true, it’s working. And it’s wasting a lot of
fbod that we people on board paid for.

I have heard plenty of complaints about Food

Service, but most of the complaints are generalized
and don’t point to one single problem. 1 have a gripe

for Food Service also, but mine is directed at the

Virtu4ly every

day this semester, we (the

.

lets say that from birth, P. House is shackled from
the neck, making it impossible for House to move,
then we place him in a tiny cell, thus minimizing any
stimulus that House may otherwise encounter.
Furthermore, we feed House a liquid diet defficient
in iron, causing severe anemia, which is indicated by
House’s continual dirreahea.
Maybe here, P. House would want to say that
this quality of existence is not to his liking, and
would perhaps prefer non-existence to this
deprivation. Well, veal calves are bred in this fashion,
and we perpetuate this brutality by purchasing veal
in supermarkets and restaurants. Therefore, it
appears that in thise case, non-existence may be
superior to existence.
Secondly, Mr. House has learned to respect
animals by hunting and killing them. I pray that
House does not learn to respect humans by the same
means. Some claim that they learn to respect animals
by observing their unique behavior, others learn to
respect animals by appreciation of their sentience,
intelligence, or beauty. To learn respect by hunting
and killing animals seems to me at least to be
confused. Those things 1 respect 1 do not wish to
destroy by virtue of the meaning of respect. I believe
you abuse the English language when you claim to
respect animals while you hunt them.
Thirdly, House claims that since man is “the
only real predator for many species,” he should go
out and hunt animals for the animals benefit, as
some members of animal populations would die of
starvation in the wild because some groups are
overpopulated. I agree that overpopulation is a real
problem (for a few species of animals, squirrels for
one are not overpopulated), however, I do not agree
that hunting is the best solution to this problem.
When we discuss hunting, we must weigh the costs as
well as the benefits to determine whether hunting is
beneficial to certain populations of animal species.
What are the costs?
1. When shot, a high
percentage of animals are wounded and not killed,
causing great suffering.
2. Hunters generally shoot big and strong
animals (genetically superior) over small and weak
animals (genetically inferior). On a large scale, this
can lead, and in some cases has led, to genetic
deterioration of animal populations, which is more
damaging to populations than most anything.
3. Some hunters take more animals than the law
specifies.

4. Hunters deprive other humans from enjoying
nature, for many people do not want to risk the
chance of being shot by incompetant hunters.
S'. Hunters have terrorized land owners by
shooting pets, and ravaging property.’
6. Hunters sometimes shoot othar hunters.
7. Hunters terrorize the hunted animalf

To me, these considerations hold much weight.
Therefore, 1 would look to alternatives to hunting

when there is a need to curtail populations, like
introducing natural preditors, implementing birth
control programs, or relocation, before I'jump on
the hunters bandwagon.
In today’s modernized sodiety.'there exists no
necessity to, kill animals for our nutritional
needs.
Delicious fruits, vegetables, grains, dairy products
and nuts can provide us with all our nutritional
requirements. By eating these products
furthermore,
we would not have to be burdened with high
cholesterol or the idea that We are brutally killing
v animals for our luxury.
Your life style, House, insults us, and all of
those who are concerned for the
welfare of
non-human animals on this planet. Your total
disregard for an animal’s sentience frightens
me as
well, as it may demonstrate a dfcfcr deficiency in
your capacity of self control, which may
spill over to
your actions with humans as well. 1 wholeheartedly
encourage you, and those who agree
with you, to
reconsider your ideas in respect to our duties to
animals, as perhaps you are not honestly dealing
with harsh realities of man’s
utter abuse of animals.

�Faculty Senate discusses
hy-laws, future of Colleges
by Kathy Fera

Spectrum

Staff Writer

The proposed Prospectus by
the Faculty Senate Committee on
the Colleges and the proposed
Faculty By-Laws were the major
topics of discussion at the April
meeting of the Faculty Senate
Tuesday in Talbert Hall.
“The Prospectus, which serves
as the Constitution for the
Colleges for a period of four
years, is a continuation of the
long-standing attempt to create
and
maintain
innovative
undergraduate environments at
this University and to define
administratively
the
relation
between these units and the larger
University,” according to a report
submitted by the Faculty Senate
Committee on the Colleges.
Chairman of the Committee on
Colleges Jonathan Reichert said,

“The revisions included in this
new Prospectus are not terribly
significant and that the changes
adopted by

the

College Council

radical
major
include, no
alterations.” According to
Retchert, the greatest political
change'of the document is found
in Article III which states that
“the College Council members
shall nbt vote on the final
of
recommendations
the
Committee but shall otherwise be
fully participating and have the
right to submit written statements
to be' included with the final

are from the collegiate system,
bringing
to

potential
position, Reichert said.

Full support
According to Lee Dryden, a
member of the Faculty Senate
Committee on the Colleges, “The
CoUeges arc in full support of the
reworking of the Prospectus;
chartering is a major strength of
the system.” He added, “The
relationship between the Colleges
and
the
Senate
Faculty
Committee on the. Colleges is
friendly and cooperative and I
hope to see extensive faculty
cooperation in the collegiate
system”,.
According to outgoing Dean of
Colleges Irving Spitzberg, “The
Colleges exist as an intellectual
neighborhood for the faculty,
staff and the students and the
constitution allows for change in
order to make this system work.
The document was agreed to by
formal vote . of the College.
•„

Council”
The second issue discussed at

length at the meeting was the
Proposed Faculty By-Laws, drawn
up bV' Associate Dean and
Professor of taw Bill Greiner.
According to Greiner, “This
document is still in the process of
rewriting; it is still a draft in the
Committee process which has yet

to be corrected.” .
The purpose of the first
reading of the document was to
reports of the Committee.” This obtain the reactions of the
change was included because the Faculty Senate and to incorporate
members of the Colleges Council their suggestions. Two items
*

Applicants sought

which are yet to be drafted are
the preamble and the savings
clause. The preamble win explain
that the Faculty Senate is a
federal agency and that it is
subject to impingements of State
and Federal Law. The savings
clause is a customary statement
designed to assure the standing of
the document if one of the
provisions are struck down.

Proper way
A major item included in this
document is the double veto
power of the President and his
delegates and the Faculty Senate.
The view of the Senate is that the
double veto will result in joint
agreement of matters
the
proper way to run a university on
collegiate and curriculum matters.
In this way, no policy can be
made without representation of
the faculty through the Faculty
Senate. This
would be
a
significant strengthening of the
Senate’s current powers.

The rest of the by-laws come
largely out of the existing ones.
One major change discussed at the
meeting was the reduction of the
term of office of the Chairman of
the Faculty Senate from three

years','to

two

and one half.

Although the members of the
Faculty Senate remain largely
unchanged, the number
of
senators representing the faculty
was reduced from 90 to 75.
The charter and the by-laws
must be adopted by the Senate by
majority vote.

Internships lacking
minority participation
by Susan Gray
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Two Administrative Internship programs developed to encourage
the participation of minority group University faculty members were
“designed not to succeed,” according to Associate Professor of
Microbiology Diane Jacobs.
rr--;:
The pilot programs were established to give tenured facility an
opportunity to gain expertise in the administrative field.
Under-represented groups, specifically women,, minorities and the
handicapped, are being sought to participate in these programs.
Internships are available* in Health Sciences and Academic Affairs.
In a statement to the Faculty Senate on February 1, 1978,,
President Ketter announced the establishment of the Internships, and
also solicited advice in development and implementation of the
programs. To date, a limited response has been received six definite
applications and 21 requests for further information.
f
Personnel Director Robert Pearson was “at a loss to explain” the
lack of inquiries. He attributed the poor attention tp “bad publicity
and bad timing spring schedules have already been set and vacations
may intervene.” Pearson stressed the value of the. programs,
emphasizing the possibility of career advancement, arid -future
employment opportunities. “You could start on a career path which
may Head to the presidency of some institution,” he said; “Not
necessarily this institution, but not excluding here.”

‘Too nebulous’
Jacobs, an active member of the AssociatirSTfor "Women In
Science, disagreed. She criticized the program on several points,
expressing regret at a waste of potential.
A major drawback of both Internship plans is their structure,
Jacobs stated. “There is no definite program as such,” she said,
continuing that no guidelines are provided
it is. left up to the
individual to design his or her own prograny-Jacobs questioned the
ability of an individual to design a program of study in a field in which
she/he has no background/“It’s too nebulous,” she reiharked.
The end results of the internships are questionable, Jacobs
continued. The programs offer rio guarantee ,,pf administrative
employment upon completion. Although training may prove yaluable
on a resume, actual experience would take precedence, she noted.
The Internship in Academic Affairs has not yet been .developed.

Settlement denounced
ZANU is one of the two constituents of the
Patriotic Front of Zimbabwe and has been carrying
out armed guerrilla war against the Ian Smith regime
for the last 15 years. Recently Ian Smith concluded
a so-called ‘internal settlement solution* with three
black personalities Bishop Muzorewa, Rev. Sithole
and Sen. Chirau, in what he described as steps
towards black majority rule. Ian Smith’s plans
permit the white minority to retain complete hold
over the government while giving a facade of black
participation in the same. The ‘internal settlement’
has been denounced by the five bordering countries
called the ‘front-line states’ which have been

During his talk Kangai claimed that more than
40 percent of Zimbabwe has been semi-liberated;
and guerrilla attacks have been launched
within
almost one mile of the city center at Salisbury. It is
this internal pressure and not the rumored
Soviet-Cuban intervention, Mr. Kangai said, that is
compelling Ian Smith to surrender step by step and
is forcing Britain and U.S. to come to terms with the
Patriotic Front.
Kangai repeatedly acknowledged the support
given by the Buffalo community in the form of
clothings, medicine, money, etc., to the Zimbabwean
refugees and guerrillas. He urged for the
continuation and further intensification of these
supportive efforts.

Nearly eight years after the Kent State incident
the case finally reached the Supreme Court, only for
a fleeting moment, however. In August, 1975 atrial
was held in Cleveland District Court in an attempt to
bring the culpable to justice. A suit for $46 million
had been lodged against Governor James Rhodes of
Ohio and 28 national guard officials by the parents
of those slain. Among the 28 were the guardsmen
who opened fire on that unforgivable morning in
early May, 1970.

Stiff Records has almost cornered

Which leaves us with Lowe.

On April 29, jazz comes to the Century Theatre as bassist Stanley
Clarke and vocalist Al Jarreau share the stage. Jarreau recently won the
Grammy award for Best Male vocalist in the Jazz category. Clarke is
renowned for his work with Return to Forever, and his speed is
incredible. Tickets are available at all usual Harvey and Corky outlets

In the immortal words of Jackson Browne, "You don't want me,
you just want meat". And Meatloaf is exactly what you're gonna get
on May 6 as this natural wonder of the world returns to the Century
Theatre. Help celebrate the seasonal Rocky Horror fever with Eddie
alumnus Meatloaf. It'was a scream last time, and this time should be
even louder. Tickets available from Squire Box Office.
One of the major focuses attempted in this issue was to highlight
the new rock and roll in a cohesive fashion. But in order to have
meaningful writing, there must be meaningful materials other than hot
wax to work with. Festival Productionsjoins the ranks of UUAB and
Sub Board of Buff State in meeting this obligation by bringing one
super rave-up of a concert, featuring Elvis Costello, Mink Deville, and
Nick Lowe with Rockpile.
If you haven't heard of Elvis Costello by now, chances are you're
either living in a prison cell or Antarctica. His two albums. My Aim Is
True and This Year's Model (both produced by Lowe) are packed to
the max with fiery, angry material. Lowe's much awaited album. Pure
Pop for Now People, has been released to highest pop acclaim on both
sides of the Atlantic. It features Dave Edmunds (whose band, Rockpile,
will be backing Lowe) and members of the Rumour providing
impeccable backing for Lowe's three minute classics. Mink Deville was
one of the first New acts to appear in Buffalo. The band, featuring the
one and only Immortals, blends R-n-R and R-n-B, and Lead singer
Willy Deville is electrifying to watch.
On March 4 of this year, Elvis Costello proved that sometimes
concerts are the energizing participatory affaire they used to always be.
With Lowe and Deville, Costello will shatter any preconceptions of
anything anybody has told you about rock and roll concerts. April 25
is the date and tickets are-eafsity attainable at any of the Usual Festival
outlets; 1’thereV plenty of room to stretch out and dance at Shea's
Buffalo. Be there when shake and pop returns.
Hey baby, take a walk over to Buff State's gym one week from
tonight For there you will be assaulted with the pioneer of punk, Lou

Reed. Along with Lou will be London loony Ian Oury and his
Blockheads. Ian is currently causing furor in the music world with his
album New Boots and Panties and his enchanting philosophy of SEX,
DRUGS, and ROCK AND ROLL. Be there. The mania will begin at
eight and tickets are available at Squire Tickets and at Buff State.
Maybe he'll play Sweet Jane?

In a unique nightclub setting, acoustic guitar master Ralph Towner
and band Oregon will appear in the Fillmore Room of Squire Hall on
May 5. This concert has taken a long time to finally appear on the
stage, and promises to be worth the wait. Tickets are only three dollars
for students, available at Squire Box Office.

blitzed-out analysis of the sexually perverse, the
criminally mischief and the ultra-violent. As the
sequel to their dazzling debut releases in
eccentric-rock Second Honeymoon/Don’t Stop the

successfully pulls this seven-man/one woman combo
from their past shelving in art rock libraries,
somewhere between Roxy Music and later Kinks,

English Boys/Working Girls might be considered
a mixing of trans-Atlantic ideals as a result of the
band's recent U.S. tour. Substituting a more direct
rock approach for thier previous style of vaudvllle

influence (prime time viewing of Verlaine's
Television?), Deaf School merges the sociological

For the first time since the “Berlin" formulations Lou's musical
capacity has closed in on a tighter hypnotic sequence of elaborations
without getting silly or boring. These same objectives were pursued but
never reached with "Metal Machine Music". The perfect example of
polished madness is demonstrated with the title cut "Street Hassle".
The music is presented in an eleven minutle opus that evolves around a
set of repetetive bars transferred from string quartet to guitar in three
parts. Each instrument represents a movement of somber funeral
process caught in relatively gay/evil emotions. The street hound spews
his slang and weaves a tale upon some stiff offering that hit the skids
from the usual skag skin pops and whhaahooo. The voice is pure warm
death in monotonic vision with tons of prose babbled in off-rhythm
colors. It has to be one of the most satisfying pieces since Gale's "The
Gift" and reflects the Nico-like shadow of dark frailty in a no-feeling
atmosphere.

Television, Adventure (Elektra)
After the almost year and half since their first
dynamite release, Marquee Moon, Television has
unleashed their latest example of New York nihilism.
Adventure. This record has the same sound that
makes Television a unique rock band but the
approach is somewhat different. First of aM
Adventure has little of the furor found in their
earlier works ("Venus," "See no Evil"), in fact it is a
pretty relaxed Rock and Roll record. Tom Verlaine's
guitar work is still exhilirating; his solos lack none of
their intended intensity and they still pierce the air
with subway train speed and precision. TeeVee's
second guitarist Richard Lloyd has the scene
completely sussed. He is there alt the time, flying
through frets, yet his notes sneak in precisely when
they are needed. Yeah, its safe to say that Tom
Verlaine was meant to play with Richard Lloyd or
vice versa, this team of guitars is what makes
Television one of the few bands you can enjoy no
matter what mood you happen to be in.
This record does, however, cater to the more
docile melancholia that seems to creep in New York
hovels. Verlaine's (oh, his real mme was Miller but
*

&lt;

he did read the symbolists) lyrics are molded in
desperation, particularly in "The Fire". This track is
one of the gloomiest songs since "When the Music's
Over". When Verlaines cellophane crackling Voice
cries out "all I heard was the adhoes. Praise
emptiness" it makes one wonder if the conviction is
really there. If not in the voice, it is certainly found
this is no little

Lou Read, Street Hassle (Arista)
At this particular stage in Lou Reed's career the only thing I
thought he was any good for was to pose with potential android fock
n’ roll groups. Vou know, the status of being nationally pictured with
this guy, the master approves, smile for Lisia Robinson, etc., all that
useless hype shit. But let's just take a good look at what the guy's
done. Plenty on his own ass. Rock N' Roll Animat Is a classic, (thanx to
Steve Hunter and company) Berlin's got me bleched-out, with some
great graphic work to help punch along the sickenss Lou offered me on
a golden platter. Remember how Buffalo shunned him and they had to
give away tickets to his Century performance about seven years back?
(We'll see when he comes 'round this time though). And how about the
aftermath irony of scoring his AM disc "Walk On The Wild Side" in the
same city and nationally as well.
Then there was the sinister hair dye streaks and interview fights
with Lester Bangs, and plastered in leather the guy looked so frail and
evil every time, he'd take a step you'd think he was going to crack in
two. The rock 'n' roll imagery was blatant but it failed to accompany
the musical stages that Lou was going thru. A good example was the
constant taunting he received with "Metal Machine Music" even though
Coney Island Baby" had some good spots, that was destined for the
bargain bins. So he was really makin' a mess of himself in the seventies.
In effect when fanatics picture Lou Reed they see a pioneer and
dark warlock with his guitar acting out the role of his familiar. Lou
lived in his past accomplishments and it's taken a long time to shake
'em despite the fact that he recorded some tremendous stuff after-that
decade. I even have to admit though, that nuthin' can take and put a
good curl in my hair while listenin' to Lou belt out a version of "What
Goes On" or "Sister Ray”. But fuck that, let's kp movin' and give the
guy a break. I fear that Iggy Pop is going through a similar transition
and the guy just doesn't have the stuff he used to when nobody would
listen to him back in '69, and Bowie isn't helping matters. It's so crazy,
the kids today are so hungry for that Detroit grizzle that reeks of the
MC5 and Iggy. It's a shame these very kids weren't around ten years
ago to buy these records and make these rockers even more invincible
than they are today, (and they'd still be tourin' tool).
Anyway, back to Lou. Well, "Street Hassle" has to be the most
enjoyable piece of music he's done in the seventies, even though
"Animal" remains his most explosive and spontaneous platter. Once
again Lou has rediscovered his morbid gutter/boulevard interpretations
of the metropolis (Pere Ubu are becoming greater onesl). He sounds as
if he's got a lifetime membership at the home of the golden arches
feasting on the latest inventions of muck food like hash browns. All
this stuff served as his brain food for the creative juices which is why
he wears sunglasses
cuz he's goin’ blind from eating that "food",
(ahh the sacrifices legends must make).
When listening to the opening passages of “Gimme Some Good
Times",’! get the feeling that Lou wishes to dispell his past in a bit of
self-asserted character assasination:

�Favoritism

Are politics hurting
Cancer research?
Editor’s, note: The following
article has been reprinted by
permission from The Mentor of
the Educational Department of
Roswell Park Memorial Institute.

by Mong Heng Tan
Special to The Spectrum

The outcry that politics is
proliferating in cancer research is
and
increasing,
the political
involvement in scientific research
could soon jeopardize progress in
many
aspects.
Above
all,

politically-motivated “scientists,”
who chronically play favoritism in

certain limited areas of interest
for the sake of convenience, or

even for psychosomatic security
of status quo, will undoubtedly
stagnate the overall progress in the
battle of cancer. Furthermore
politics that limits the quality of
dynamics in scientific research
will flourish.
History has revealed that
Socrates turned against the
brilliant scientists of his day
claiming that progress in knowing
more and more about the physical
universe would do humans no
good
unless humans also
learned to. understand their own
souls and what it meant to lead a
good life. Nevertheless, Socrates
did further assert that goodness
would ■ have to be based on
knowledge and on reason, thus
setting forth a concerted guide for
both
and

Abbott Library relocations
Abbott

Annex,

which

presently houses part of the
Lockwood Library collection, is
tentatively scheduled to be razed
following the relocation of the
collection to the Amherst Campus
early this summer. According to

Director of University libraries
Saktidas Roy, the Health Sdences
collection will probably be moved
to old Abbott after the present

collection is-relocated.

Assistant to the Vice President

for* Facilities Planning Albert

Dahlberg explained, “Because the
condition of the building is so
bad, especially that of .the roof, it

a
requires
great deal of
maintainance. The decision to
raze it, subsequently removing it
from the budget, is therefore

beneficial.”
Abbott Annex contains a vast
amount of reference materials. It
also contains an extensive
collection of current periodicals
and the graduate reserve materials.
“The annex houses approximately
7,5(Jb current periodicals,” said
Lockwood Librarian Madeleine
Stem. “The reserve collection
consists of specific graduate
information in the Social
Sciences,
Humanities and

Management.”

Located .in the back of the
annex, unobserved and unknown
by most students, is the Central»
Technical Services department for
the library. This interconnected
series of offices orders, receives
and processes all new books and
journals. In one day, the serial
department catalogs one hundred
incoming journals.

word of caution with respect to
the present psychosomatic reality

the other,. philosophical,

critical, is characterized by the
of

Politics can at best serve as an
operative measure, that calls for
better understanding of such

outside the work environment,
such as in housing, schooling and
transportation. Citicorp, Ford
Motor Company, G.M. and IBM
are among the signers of thd
Sullivan Six.
It is counter-argued that only
one to ten percent of, the
workforce of such corporations is
black. Therefore it is contended
that the Sullivan Six is designed to
assist a minimal portion of the
non-white population. According
to Tim Smith of the Interfaith

from

“Universities and corporations
worry about their public image. If
any Ivy League school sells its

of ‘a major

why and look down upon it as a
socially irresponsible company,”
he said. . if.xcS*V
“Why don’t the universities use

‘Stockholders powerless’
A second position held by the
corpprate sector is that if the U.S.

move ip&gt; Japan, for example.
Corporate spokesmen maintain
that the system of apartheid will

President

said that divestiture
“would have an adverse financial
impact on Princeton.” Threats of
rising tuition and cutbacks of
corporate grants are claimed by
trustees to be the result ’of
divestiture.
The popular concession by
trustees to the anti-apartheid
movement is the questioning of
policy of companies operating in

Student injured

Bus stop relocated

after freak accident
An “unscheduled” bus stop on the Hamilton Entrance at the
Amherst Campos has been relocated to the corner of Hamilton
Entrance and White Road to insure safer drop-offs for students. The
stop was changed after an accident near the Hamilton Entrance at a
stop for students going to the Bubble.
A female student got off a Blue Bird Coach and ran in front of it.
A vehicle passing the bus struck and injured the student as she was
running across the street on her way to the Bubble.
The bus stop, which is honored for the convenience of the
students, is considered “unscheduled” by the campus busing office
because activities at the Bubble are infrequent.
Vice President of Blue Bird Roger Frieday believes that the stop
should be eliminated totally. “Cars don’t pdy attention to students
unloading the buses,” he said. “The change was made primarily to
accommodate students who use the Bubble.”
Director of Campus Busing Roger McGill disagreed saying, “I don’t
feel that the stop made at the Hamilton Entrance is any more
dangerous than any other location made by campus buses.” There are
many other stops cited by McGill which he feels pose as much danger
to the students including the Governors drop-off. He said, "There is a
ride there Ido as students run across the street before the bus pulls

�Dunnett’s trip to Russia aids
in English as foreign dialect
Spectrum

Moscow State University, a sister
school to the SUNY system,
which was the first university

“pretty isolated.”

Staff Writer

Director
of
this
Intensive English
Institute
(IELT),
Language
Stephen Dunnett, returned this
week from a two-week stay in
Russia, where he had been invited
by the Soviet Ministry of Higher
and Secondary Education.
While there, Dunnett explained
to Soviet faculty and student^the
Institute’s method of teaching
English as a foreign language. His
lectures, which were open and
well-attended, emphasized
the
of not teaching
importance
from its

Dunnett commented, “We are

Dunnett noted that Russian
universities
teach
“British
English.” Educators there refer to
the English spoken in the United
States as “the American variant”
Dunnett said that at times his
audiences were taken back “by his
American way of using very direct
speech,” whereas “they were

States,”' remarked
noting that people stayed for
hours after his lectures to ask
questions. Another topic of great
concern for the people who
questioned Dunnett, was, “Why
kids in the U.S. can’t read and
write?” On the whole, he claimed,
“Their press coverage about the
U.S. is negative.”
The United States has a
cultural and educational exchange
agreement
with Russia. To
participate in this program, this
University applied for a contract
with the federal government.
Forty other colleges applied for
die contract, which stipulates that
this University hosts Russians in
its English Language Department
with Washington paying expenses.
This University was awarded the
contract because, said Dunnett,
“the department is good and the
school had
support.” Last
summer, 38 Russian professors
spent
nine
weeks at this
University, one week of which
was devoted to tourism. Dunnett’s
visit was the first of such
exchanges in New York State. The
Director of the Intensive Russian
Institute from Moscow State
University will visit Buffalo in
June.

Hundreds of U.S. students will'find jobs in France, Ireland and
Britain this summer through the Work In Europe program
sponsored by thte Council on International Educational Exchange
(CIEE). For the past nine years, this popular program has provided
students with the direct experience pf living and working in another
country and, at the same time, helped them reduce the cost of their
trip abroad. The Work in Europe program virtually eliminates the
red tape that students faced in the past when they wanted to work
Great

abroad.

Participants must find their own jobs but will have the help of
cooperating student travel organizations in each country. In France
they may work during the summer; in Great Britain they may work
any time of the year for up to six months; in Ireland they may
work at any time of the year for up to four months.
The jobs are usually unskilled in factories, department stores,
hotels, etc. Salaries are low, but students generally earn enough to
pay for their room and board while they work. A typical job would
be that of chambermaid in a hotel in London’s West End. But last
summer one enterprising student found work as an apprentice
jockey for one of Ireland’s racing stables.
To qualify for CIEE’s program, students must be between the
ages of 18 and 30 and must be able to prove their student status. To
work in FRance, they must also be able to speak and understand

Internships
m

—continued from page 11—
...

Vice President of Academic Affairs Robert Bunn is in the process of
designing a program for the 1978-79 year. Currently, only the Health
Sciences Internship is available. :
The pool of faculty members to which the program applies is too
narrow, Jacobs stated. Over half the qualified individuals are members
of the School of Nursing, she said. This “tiny pool” excludes non-full
time faculty
those who are associated with departments on a
part-time basis. Part-timers would have just as much, if not more, to
gain from the programs as full-timers, she felt.
v
-

PRIC

Improvements vetoed
In'addition, non-tenured faculty as well as professional staff could
benefit from the Internships, noted Jacobs. Participation of
non-tenured faculty is being discouraged by the Administration
because of time considerations
tenured would be more likely to
experiment with their time, the argument goes. A time-release has been
approved by the Deans of the Schools involved for tenured faculty
participating in the programs.
Professional non-teaching staff are also excluded from the
Internships. However, a parallel program is to be developed which
would be available to any interested professional, stated Pearson.
Combined, the restrictions and the unstructured nature of the
programs resulted in the poor response, Jacobs said. Lack of
enthusiasm on the part of the Administration was also cited as a reason
fct limited interests. The person in charge of the programs would “only
act with as much enthusiasm as the administration above him would
ask him to,” Jacobs said.
University women are skeptical abput the actual benefits of the
program, EUssa Snowden, incumbent member of the Organization of
University Women remarked. “They are afraid it’s another come-on
with no definite results, she stated.
Pearson met with the representatives of various minority groups,
including Jacobs and Snowden, to discuss the potential and viability of
the programs. Suggestions for improvements were made, said Jacobs,
and vetoed on the basis of a prior agreement or a Presidential decision.
“We were told this is it. This is what we are stuck with,”&amp;e declared.
Among the suggestions were; tapping existing sources for monies
and grants to augment the program by providing a definite plan of
study, removal of eligibility constraints to allow participation of
non-tenured faculty and staff, contacting Deans of Schools for lists of
people qualified and filling vacant administrative seats with women and
other minorities.

The former furniture store at 3144 Main Street
is twice as big as the present Co-op space, has a

work space, storage and projects, notably recycling.
However, the building includes another storefront

Crisis situation
“Crisis situations have spurred new involvement
in the Co-op before,” commented former
coordinator Danny Grandusky. “We need funding,
energy and we need people with special talents.”
The Co-op has become an important link
-b tween many students and the surrounding
community. Over 60 percent of its business is
reportedly from students.
Grandusky continued, “We are not just a food
store,-but asocial base to improve to quality of life
aournd here.”
Co-op members will meet again on April 25 at 7

They include Happy and Artie
Traum, two of the finest city-folk
alumni; Eric Anderson, the
Amherst-born author of “thirsty

Bill Keith,' possibly the world’s
best bluegrass banjoist; Jim

that by now I’d be a well-paid

my days at Lehigh. The Vietnam

everything. And the facts of my

The salaries of the Sub-Board employees,

not‘one letter to the Editor referring to the Aztec
Two Step Concert held in the Fillmore Rocyn last
Friday night. I expected to read several complaints.
The music was good and the fact that UUAB
provides decent people to play music here at
low
prices ($3.00) is commendable. It is also part of
their
function. But, they blew it Wednesday night.
The room was extremely crowded "at the 10
p.m. show. There were no chairs; you had to sit on
the floor bn which people had spilled their beer,
dropped matches and stubbed out their cigarettes.
Once you sat down it was too crowded to move-your
legs easily and avoid cramping. Worst of all, around
a

hundred people who had paid $3.00 were forced to
stand during the whole concert.
I think that’s a rip off. I’m not joiug to accuse
UUAB of trying to make a profit at the expense of
students but if they don’t know what the capacity of
the Fillmore Room is, I’ll tell them, flake the
money, divide it by three, subtract about a hundred
and you’ve got it.
I know money’s tight, but it is completely
unacceptable to hold concerts in that manner. I
enjoyed the music (except for the fact that it
was
too loud, but that’s a matter of taste) but the room
was a little too sociable; Wise up, UUAB. Thanks for
listening.

The blame lies not with The Spectrum sports

I strongly object to The Spectrum printing two
stories on the Sabres-Rangers playoff game in the
Friday edition. I think it is absurd for The Spedtrum,
who did not cover the Sabres or the Rangers, during
the regular season, to print two stories on one game.
Furthermore, the story by Harold Goldberg was

Shapiro not only was four days late, but contained
less information than reports of the game in the

strong enough to stand up. I’ll try and eventually I’ll
break a few of those “pseudo barriers.” Maybe I’ll
get hurt, but eventually I’ll start over and, ya know,

After several dealings with our isolated
University President, I can honestly say that Dr.
Ketter ignores students’ needs and refuses to take us
seriously.

it’s worth it!!

Last chance Amherst credibility
To the Editor:

Campus’ last chance at credibility. Springfest will be

unfortunately that’s all it will be. EUicott, as well as
the whole Amherst Campus, really needed that
weekend. We needed the people, the enthusiasm, the
laughter, and especially the optimistic sound of first

annual before the word Springfest. Springfest on

Amherst would being some life to its spacious fields.
It would, at the same time, bring some commuters to
a part of the campus they never see except through

the window of a Blue Bird. It’s an election year;
Springfest on Amherst would have surely drawn
some politicians
what better way to throw the
problem of the unfinished campus in their faces???
Sprinfest on Main Street practically forces us to be
apathetic about the new campus. It seems destined
to be just another success for Main Street'to 1 take
credit for. Holding this celebration on Main Street
only hurts the life we undergraduates on Amherst
believe in and want to proclaim. If Amherst is really
just a group of buildings, as we are now led to
believe, then why bother calling it a campus???

The American Way
To the Editor
The Student Association Senate, that mighty
organization which represents all students, regardless
of color,
race or political affiliation, recently
passed judgement on and condemned that poor,
hapless creature
Abed Musallam. The fool had
done an unpardbnable sin. He had actually criticized
the great United States! Poor fool, he forgot he was
in America and that he was not American.
But sometimes I wonder if the fool was really
that foolish, for how can culture be totally separated
fronj politics, when the culture is determined by the
nature of the people and the nature of the people by
then politics. I was there. I heard the fool speak, I
heard the crowd applaud. Perhaps, the two-faced

unknowedgable.
Everyone knows why Dr.

fetter was elevated to
President of this University in 1970
to keep
students quiet! Dr. Ketter, in his overzealous
conservatism, has gone a bit too far trying to control
students. Not. only has he controlled students, but he
has hindered us in our fight to improve our
education. Even kissing Ketter’s ass will not
guarantee a chance to negotiate anything with him.
Do we want a President who isolates himself and
ignores us, treats us like children, and is so defensive
as to criticize us when we disagree With him? Do we
want a President who either blatently lies to us or is
oblivious and unaware of major crises on this
campus?
I have not been impressed by Dr. Ketter’s
superficial friendliness to students; he has helped
students little, and stabbed us in the back many
times.
Do we want a new U.B. President? / do.

To the Editor

As students of this University we demand an
explanation for the SA resolution censuring the
International Affairs Coordinator Abed Musallam for
speaking the truth! What right has SA President
Richard Mott to condemn someone for making what
he deemed a political comment?
What determines a political statement? Is not
silence political. Consciously not speaking out when
atrocities are occurring, condones them.
The University is intricately linked with
government and business interests. Clearly it’s in the
best interest of the administration for us, the
students, to remain silent. That is why the
administration has implemented a policy not

who were angered are themselves the fools.
For only fools can fail to recognize that several
cultures have been tom apart by wars instigated or
perpetuated to a large extent by the United States of
America. Only fools, would not acknowledge the
truth that the popular American press lets the people
know only what they wish them to know.
So maybe, that poor, hapless fool should not be
judged so harshly. It was his night, International
Night, and after all this is Anjerica. Here, everybody
has human rights' Everybody, regardless of color,
creed, race or political affiliation.

creatures

Dr. Ketter treats S.A. officials like children,
never allowing them to stand on equal footing with
him on any issue of consequence. Acting out his
fatherly role, he will condenscend and punish with
irate unnecessary verbal criticism his student
children, if they dare to disagree or contradict him.
One only had to mention Women’s Studies College
during their faculty line crisis, and President Ketter
lashed out with an unnecessary tyrade condemning
the college.
Only innocuous trivia is openly discussed at
official meetings of the S.A., such as ordering new
furniture.
.
s*’
Major student issues needing Administrative
support, such as a real, working teacher evaluation
system, has been systematically avoided, and its
discussion is referred to lower echelon
administrators. Furthermore, such issues are
permanently placed in the “circular file” (if they
have not been put there already), in an attempt to
lose them forever. The student parking problem was
given the same treatment.
A problem like handicapped accessibility to the
University is one of the few student concerns that
Dr. Ketter will lend an ear to. This is mainly because
State guidelines and State laws stare him in the face.
Even then, Dr. Ketter had to be pushed and prodded
for any action to happen.
On other topics. Dr. Ketter has denied any
knowledge of an issue and was either totally lying or
totally ignorant of the issue. A perfect example of
this was: A couple of months after the unfortunate
suicide of one of our nursing students, I asked Dr.
Ketter what the Administration was doing (if
anything) to look into the matter and investigate the
incident. Dr. Ketter’S response was that he could not
even remember the incident, he knew nothing about
it, and, of course, the Administration was not doing
anything about it. I was shocked and appalled at Dr.'
Ketter and his insensitivity to the matter. I honestly
hope Dr. Ketter was lying and not just

be used for political
leaflets and buses for
demonstrations. Yet the University is allocating
funds to help business {Reporter 4/13). Now the SA
condemns someone for speaking out against U.S.
Imperalism. We need more political statements to
county the obscenities shouted at us by the
administration every time they float a bond (which
ends up paying the bank two and three times the
amount borrow) and everytime they charge us
tuition. We must maintain the tradition of the

1 just finished reading Friday’s front page article
on the College’s room allotments. I am dismayed at
what has to be the worst example of reporting ever
to hit the pages of The Spectrum.
Along with three other Colleges, the article
mentioned- that the College of Math Sciences had
been charged with abusing, the room allotment
system. Yet these “charges” were backed up by only
one sentence. That being, that one student claimed

past. We are not told who this student is, or what is

his source of information.
Thp charge is no more than third hand heresay,
and totally incorrect heresay at that. Articles should
be based on facts, not rumors. Unless The Spectrum
can come up with specific fevidence, they owe an
apology to the members of C.M.S.

We wish to voice a complaint about the manner
in which Carcn Alyce and Harvey Shapiro slandered

article on College abuse of housing barely two
sentences are devoted to CMS. Contrary to the

by anyone of responsibility, there are only Hie
charges of Mr. Shapiro and Ms. Alyce and some
anonymous student. Even then there is only one
false and Slanderous charge. CMS has and Will never

F/IDED:

Because of the great number of
Holocaust survivors living -in
Skokie, the Nazis' right to march
there,- along with the citizens’
right of privacy, and protection
from malicious harassment have
been thrown into controversy.
The American Civil Liberties
Union (ACLU),- which Is
defending the Nazis’ right to
march, claims that this is a
fundamental test of the First
Amendment which guarantees the
right of assembly of free speech.
The ACLU, which boasts that it is
“the only organization concerned
with the Bill of Rights,” claims
that a ruling against the march
could set a dangerous precedent

by which the First Amendment
would be endangered.

No easy solution
Professor of Law at this
University, Howard Mann, an
authority on the Ejrst
Amendment and other principles
involved with the ACLU’s case,
said that this case will not be
solved easily because the Nazis are
planning to use a public forum

FRIDAY

Passover week: a holiday
in celebration of freedom
“Pesach” is the celebration of freedom in which
children play an important part. The purpose of the
seder is to educate children and broaden their
awareness of freedom. Freedom is a “very precious
thing, a very great gift,” said Rabbi Dovid Sholom
Pape.
Pesachis is not only a celebration of what
happened a long time ago when the Jews freed
themselves from slavery. “On Pesach, every Jew has
the opportunity to leave their own individual
slaveries said Pape.
Many weeks are spent preparing for Passover.
Many Jews undergo a “spring cleaning” to make sure
all the bread crumbs (chometz) in and about their
homes are cleaned out. Only matzoh is eaten during
Passover. Bread is a symbol of that which is blown
in this case, it symbolizes human egotism.
up
Matzoh stands for true attitude of the Passover
holiday, one of humility and modesty.
When the Jews fled from Egypt, they did not
have time to wait for their bread to rise and then
bake it. They left in peat haste taking their
unleavened bread with them. Matzoh is the symbol
of this haste.

Leaving individual slaveries

Children’s questions
In the Jewish tradition, the seder beings when
the four sons are present. The youngest child asks
the four questions: “Why is this night different from
all other nights?,” “On all other nights we eat
leavened and unleavened bread. Why on this night do
we eat only unleavened bread?,” “Why do we dip

There are four kinds of childreh at the seder
table: the wise, wicked, simple and the haby. The
wise child asks about the laws and is told. The
wicked son, antagonistic in attitude makes fun. He is
then sharply told that he could have been left inEgypt. The wicked son must be “cut down to size”
so that he will listen. Then, he is given the red
answers to his questions. The simple child is full of
questions, “He is the child that is most turned on to
learning,” said Pape. Although the simple child is not
as learned as the wise child, he yearns tplearn more.
The simple child in turn is told about all of the
mirades. The baby does not know how to ask
questions. To this child, the whole story of Passover
is told. The baby is the center; until he asks the
questions, there can be no seder. “Every Jew
possesses these four children,” said Pape.
Relaxation and wine
There are objects displayed on the seder table
which are explained during the course of the seder.
There is matzoh; the paschal Iamb, a holiday offering
(today it’s really burnt and scraped chicken neck);
moror, the bitter herb which serves as a reminder of
the bitterness of slavery; an egg, symbolic of deep
grief and also a symbol of birth bom out of slavery.
Everyone drinks four cups of good strong red wine
while Teaniqg back and relaxing. A fifth cup of wine
is poured for Elijah, the prophet who visits every 4
Jewish home during the seder.
At Chabad House, more than 5000 meals have
been prepared for those students staying at school
during Passover. Students may make reservations for
both seders by contacting Chabad House. Kosher for
Passover meals can also be purchased from Chabad
for $18.00. Those students on meal {dan simply have
to sign up and will receive their meals for free.

Baseball Bulls open at
losses mar season thusfar
The Baseball Bulls open their
home season today against the
University of Pittsburgh (Peele
Field, 1 p.m.) with a 9-13 record
and dwindling playoff hopes. The
Bulls lost their sixth straight game
Monday, ending a four game trip
to the New York Metropolitan
Area with a 9-0 forfeit to 24th
ranked St. Johns University.

the Bulls won more games than
they lost in Florida.
The latest disaster occurred
when several Buffalo players, led
by tri-caplain Mike Groh and
pinch runner Joe Ward, objected
too strenuously to a call at home
plate in the UB half of the ninth,
resulting in the forfeit. Both
players were initially ejected from
the game, joining Monkarsh, who
was ejected in the fourth for
disputing a stolen base call.

Buffalo coach Bill Monkarsh
previously said that anything less
than three wins on what was
slated to be a five game trip could
severely damage his team’s
chances of getting into the
playoffs for the third straight

The Lacrosse Bulls captured their first victory of the season
Saturday, topping host Buffalo State, 16-3. UB outplayed the Bengal*
at both ends of the field, which was wet from a mid-April snow
shower. The Bulls were led by captain Frank Massaro’s four goals and
three assists.
v. .
The first score came midway through the first period as Massaro
took a sharp pass from ipidfielder Bob Spendle, rapping it past the
Bengal netminder. Over the next five minutes of play, the lead shot up
to 5-0, as Willie Higgs scored twice. Higgs’ goals, his first tallies of the
season, were scored only a minute apart from each other.
Midfielders Craig Kirkwood and Larry Leva consistently excelled,
both offensively and defensively. Kirkwood, absent in the 14-3 loss to
Alfred, was instrumental in the crisp passing game. Kirkwood scored
one goal and added an assist in the game. Able to set up on man down
situations, the Bulls opened up a half time lead of 8-1. Goalie Prank
DiToundo turned away nine shots, keeping the Bengal* from mounting
any kind of threat. Buffalo State’s Chuck Wright broke DiToundo’s bid
for a shut out with an unassisted goal with less than a minute to play in
the second quarter.
One-sided action
UB slowed down the offense in the third quarter. Massaro added a
goal and assist as Frank Betely, second half goalie, stopped the few
shots from the Bengals attack. Don Lund and the Bull defense stick
checked away almost all State attempts to bring the ball into the Bulls’
zone. Lund, on occasion, legally pounded Bengal attackmen into the
wet turf, intimidating what was left of Buffalo State’s offense.
Coach Perry Hanson cleared his bench in the fourth period, as the
Bulls picked up six tallies in the final segment. Overall play became
sloppy as the cold weather had both teams wishing for the warmth of
the locker rooms. The highlight of the period came when Hanson,
having inserted himself in the game, scored an unassisted goal with
6:38 remaining in the game. The Bengals picked up two more points as
Wright added his second goal of the afternoon.
The victory evened the Lacrosse Club’s record at 1-1 while the first
year club from State dropped its record toD-3. The Bulls play today at
Slippery Rock College in Pennsylvania.

&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).

The Department of Health,

disclosed that iparijuana

paraquat can cause serious lung
damage if smoked in large
quanities.
Mexican marijuana and opium

fields have been sprayed regularly
with paraquat for the better part
of three years by Mexican
anti-drug authorities, according to
the U.S. State Department. The
U S. Drug Enforcement Agency
has

with Mexican drug officials but
the full extent of cooperative
activity in this instance has not
been publically documented.
Mexican authorieis selected the

contaminated.
PharmChem Laboratories in
Palo Alto, California, is one of a
handful of organizations that tests
marijuana for traces of paraquat.
Since the paraquat scare began
about two months ago, the trickle
of samples has turned into a
flood. On March 31, PharmChem
received 949 samples, and 174, or
18 percent, were found to be
-contaminated.
However, this analysis is not
simple. Paraquat soaks into
marijuana; therefore the plant
material must be broken down
completely before any level of
paraquat contamination may be
determined. This type of testing is
infinitely more difficult than
testing for common marijuana
additives, such as the tranquilizer
PCP, often called “angel dust.”
Locally, officials at Sunshine
House on 106 Winspear Avenue
report that paraquat has yet to hit
the Buffalo area. Those students
wishing to secure additional
information about paraquat or
marijuana in general are urged to
call Sunshine House at 831-4046.

Fibrosis a possibility
However, it was discovered last
summer that pot plants sprayed
with paraquat live for several days
before dying, which allowed
growers to harvest and 'sell
contaminated marijuana. Shortly
thereafter, U.S. drug enforcement
officials confiscated 63 samples of
marijuana from Mexico and
discovered that 13 contained
significant amounts of paraquat
contamination.
Smoking three to five joints a
day for several months (with a
paraquat concentration of 450
parts per million), can lead to
fibrosis, a lung disease, according
to the National Center for Drug
Abuse in Washington, D.C.

FPA is a principle member of
the New York State Campaign for
Abortion Rights, an organization
dedicated to supporting the
constitutional right of every
woman, regardless of economic
condition, to a safe, legal
abortion, with no interference
from the State.
The current focus of the
campaign is on the State’s
legislative action dealing with
Medicaid funds. In 1977, the
Suprenie Court of the United
States ruled that states were not
required to pay for
non-therapeutic, elective
abortions under the Medicaid law.
Medicaid funding is a SO-SO
proposition, divided between the
federal and state governments. In

the Controversial Hyde

use of federal monies for elective

battle. “Other attempts will be
introducted. The Right to Life
Movement will chip away until
legalized abortion is completely
eroded,” she commented.
Kirschner met Thursday with
representatives from the
Community Action Corps (CAC)
and the Sexuality Education
Center to discuss the possibility of
a campus campaign for the
protection of abortion rights. A
public meeting to increase student
awareness of the issue was
suggested, with films, speakers,
and information sheets to be
presented. A massive letter writing
campaign was stressed as the focus
of the crusade. The purpose is to
“inform and educate State
legislators on the issue,” she said.
This University is an ideal spot
for such a campaign, remarked
Kirschner. “The great thing about
college campuses is that there are
people there who vote all over the
State,” she commented. “UB is a
great fulcrum for activity.”
Legislators from a wide range of
districts would be affected with
this type of strategy.
A table in Squire Hall was
proposed as a focal point for the
campaign. Legislative directories
would be provided to check
individual legislator’s voting
records on the abortion issue. In
addition, voter registration forms
would be available to provide an
added push
“A letter would
have more effect if the person

Staff Writer

Governor Hugh Carey vetoed the State Legislature’s newest Death
Penalty bill last Wednesday, citing his long-standing campaign
commitment as the primary reason for the veto. “I will not alter my
position on capital punishment so long as I hold this term of office,”
declared Carey in his veto message to the Legislature.
Senator Dale Volker (R., Depew), chief sponsor of the bill,
expressed confidence that the veto would be overriden by the
Legislature. He noted that the bill had originally passed the Senate just
one vote short of the two-third majority needed to override the veto.
Volker, a former Depew police officer and the bill’s main writer,
discounted the view that the bill was “barbaric and inhuman,” as one
Senator termed it. “The death penalty is in reality an affirmation of
life,” asserted Volker. “It says that if you kill, you better be prepared
to give up your own life.”
All five Western New York senators voted in favor of the bill. One,
Joseph Tauriello (D., Buffalo), had voted against last year’s bill because
“it conflicted with my Catholic upbringing.” He did, however, vote for
this year’s bill explaining, “I hope it isn’t used too often. I hope it’s
deterrent. I know the criminal justice system isn’t working now and 1
hope I’m doing the right thing reflecting the wishes of the people in
my district. Over 90 percent seem to favor the penalty in my district.”
-

Desire for justice
Members of the Legislature have waged a statistical war over the
issue of the bill’s effectiveness in helping to reduce the number of
murders in this state. “If the death penalty is not a deterrent, then our
whole system is wrong. We must ask ourselves this; are things better
today than they were before we abolished the death penalty?” argued
Volker. Opponents of the bill maintain that no evidence exists to
support Volker’s contention, but do concede that it does have “a
certain emotional appeal that helps satisfy many people’s desire for
justice.”
Raymond Gallagher (D., Lackawanna) agreed that-this might be
bill
t the case, but insisted that the biggest reason behind his vote for the
his previous experience in handling criminals as a guard at the Erie
ounty Holding Center.
Assemblyman William Hoyt (D., Buffalo), siding with Bishop
.Edward Head of the Roman Catholic Diocese of Buffalo in opposing
capital punishment in any form, voted against the bill. “For one, no
one has ever proven the death penalty to be a deterrent to violent
crimes,” Hoyt said. “I am concerned with the solution to the ptoblem
of violent crime as it relates to our society, not with mindless

vengence.”
Life and death
Hoyt expressed concern that the poor were much more likely to
be charged, tried and convicted of crimes carrying the death penalty.
“The affluent in society always have access to the best lawyers money
commented Hoyt. “However, the poor are frequently
can
represented by public defenders and other attorneys less equipped to
deal with life and death cases,” he concluded.
Volker denies that his bill will result in bias against the poor,
replying that it “has more safeguards than any other death penalty bill
in the country.”
Under the bill, the death penalty could only be imposed on
criminals convicted of “aggravated murder the killing of an on-duty
police officer, prison guard, witness in a criminal investigation or

convictions for violent crimes could also be executed.
The bill provides for a second jury to be impaneled after a
conviction of aggravated murder.' This jury would be required to
consider any mitigating or unusual circumstances regarding the crime.
If this jury decides that the death penalty is warranted, the defendant
would then be allowed unlimited legal fees and services as well as an
automatic appeal to the State Court of Appeals, this State’s highest

Unfair to GSA
Despite his eagerness to see the committee constituted and
functioning, Nagarajan admitted that he had delayed his nominations
for about three weeks in order to find, what he referred to, as “the
most qualified popple.” He believes, however, that this had no impact
on the present delays, which were caused by “faculty
non-cooperation.”
Nagarajan feels that it was unfair of Fogel to ask GSA to insure a

In response to your review of the speech given by
Mr. Daniel Schorr, 1 would like to point out that the

After nearly eight years as President, Robert L. Ketter
appears to have little to offer the University. He has
remained virtually invisible to students, enigmatic and
uninspiring to faculty and now through his own actions

A University must always be looking to expand if not
by buildings and numbers then by intellectual creativity and
academic refinement. A University President's task is not
just to allow or to monitor that expansion, but to lead it. to

image the University seemed to be ripe for in 1970.
Though Ketter has made an honest effort to further the
physical development of the campus, he has consciously

Furthermore, he has not created the admininistrative
environment that would allow others to assume this
intended role of the President. Thus, the University is
stagnating in ways not attributable to stalled construction.
The halt in academic progress and the degeneration of
the grand dreatns of the 1960s have always been symbolized
by the pathetically imcomplete Amherst Campus. Ketter
now joins Amherst in symbolizing alt that is wrong with this
University.
But the widespread disenchantment in Capen Hall hits
harder than anything. Ketter has failed to keep the
confidence, and more importantly the trust, of the people
with which he works most closely. The almost beastly image
of Ketter that has been sketched by his subordinates is
frightening enough. But the persistent charge that Ketter
avoids responsibility for decisions or simply doesn’t make
them, renders the President incapable of dispensing his

And Robert Ketter will, of course, refuse to resign.
So
after long and serious thought
we must call for
the UB Council to remove Ketter from the Presidency of the
State University of New York at Buffalo. We also call on the
SUNY Chancellor and the SUNY Board of Trustees to
support his removal and on the Faculty Senate,
Undergraduate Student Association and Graduate Student
Association to join the effort to achieve this desperately
needed change.

left many with the impression that Dr. Bunn was
establishing a committee, on which there would be
student representatives, to consider whether to
retain the four course load or adopt the five course,

Colleges charged with abusing room allotments
by Caien Alyce and
Harvey Shapiro

Students have charged several
Housing
College
of
the
committees with abusing the
room assignment system, claiming
that assignments have been
influenced by personal friendships
and .dangled before students as
inducements to join a particular

.

College.
Specifically, charges have been
brought against the College of

Urban Studies (CUS), College 1,
the College of Math Sciences
(CMS), and Cora P. Maloney
College (CPM).
According to a leaflet handed
out with the housing packet,
room assignments in College B are
determined by a committee which
evaluates applicants on several
areas including participation in
College events, years in the

College -end yean in ichool.
However, Charles Schaenman, a
College B member, claimed that
the committee has ignored these
criteria. He said that in the past
two years, nobody in College B
Housing
knew
how
the
Committee was established. “One
day” he said, "it just developed.”
Shaeman related that people who
had friends on the housing
committee last year received the
best rooms. He claimed that a
person who joined the College last
year received a single because he
had a friend on the housing
committee. “He did nothing for
the College except hang a few
signs,” he said,
Schaenman added that he was
a senior, and had been very active
in the, CdOege, yet was given only
a double. “Everyone knew that I
was very active ydt I only received
a double,” he said. “To get my

it,” the student said. “However,”
the student continued, “there was
a mixup and I ended up with a
double.*’
He also claimed that freshmen
were living in singles which were
designated for CDS. “Oat of seven
singles,” he said, “four or five of
them are occupied by freshmen.”
A member of the CUS Housing

Committee,
vehemently denied those charges.

Another student confirmed the

According to

know only a handful of the
applicants. 1 ' “Besides,” he said,
“the best rooms are not occupied
by friends of the committee
members.” Baron also answered
charges that there is no set
procedure for establishing the
Housing Committee, claiming
“The residential coordinators
from the Housing Office, along
with officials from the College,
choose the committee.”
Schaenman stated that there
are freshmen in College B who live
in singles. Baron explained that
freshmen end up in sihgles when

Handicapped Access
Project shows results
by Charles Haviland
Spectrum Staff Writer

Last December Wanda Miller and Tony Sara went before the
Student Senate looking for help, in alleviating the problems faced by
the handicapped here on campus. Sara, confined to a wheelchair, was
unable to participate in the meeting because the Senate Chamber in
Talbert Hall is inaccessible. Miller, who has a hearing impairment, did
the talking.
Soon thereafter. Lew Rose, Chairperson of the New York Public
Interest Research Group (NYP1RG), volunteered his organization's
services. By the first week in January a proposal named the
Handicapped Access Project was drawn. The proposal was approved by
the proper authorities a week later and Pat Ryan was chosen as
coordinator of the progranv
Since the inception of the Handicapped Access Project, Ryar. has
put in over 175 man-hours talking on the phone, attending meetings,
writing letters, and working with legal services constructing a program
that wiD‘,*«t he put*it, “show results.’’ Ryan’s workforce is made up of
a dozen volunteers who have put in an estimated minimum of 200 man
hours.
The goal of Handicapped Access is to make all facilities accessible
to the handicapped in every way.
Services that the able-bodied person takes fro granted daily. “We
want the student to be able to get inside buildings but it shouldn’t stop
there,” said Ryan. “The handicapped individual must have full
accessibility to phones, bathrooms and water fountains.”
,

Accessibility?
To evaluate the inaccessibility situation of the campuses here,
Handicapped Access used a four page checklist from the Department of
Health Education and Welfare (HEW). It included such items as ramps,
curb cuts, light and elevator panels for each of the 60 buildings on the
campuses. A secondary list of barriers is currently being processed from
the results of the checklists.
Once the list of barriers is completed it will be used to pressure the
University administration to reform them. How effective and useful the
barrier checklist is remains to be seen.
The question of the University’s responsibility to the handicapped
is not an easy one to answer. Section 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of
1973 mandates all educational institutions throughout the United
States to make facilities accessible to handicapped persons by 1980.
The exact definition of accessible is ambiguous arid poses problems.
The HEW established standard guidelines in 1973 ih compliance with
Section 504.
Bertha Cutcher of Offices of Services for the Handicapped (OSH)
pointed out that the University is responsible only for program
accessibility. That is, if ther&amp;j&amp;a program that a person in a wheelchair
is interested in, the University will, ifpossible, bring that program to
the individual if it is regularly held in an inaccessible facility. To date,
four classroom changes have been made for nine students. “The
University is legally, programatically accessible,” said Cutcher. “There
are no physical education majors here that are handicapped so there is
no legal reason for Clark Hall to be accessible.” The handicapped
question this definition of accessibility.

Fulfilling promises
The handicapped community and the people working to relieve its
plight believe it is a fundamental right to have access to any program
offered here. The Champion bench press weightlifter of 1977 was a
paraplegic, Ryan argued. “We can’t even get handicapped students in
Clark for a swim or into Baird for a music lesson,” he elaborated.
Presently, the only physical evidence that has “shown results” for
Ryan is the installation of a ramp entrance into Squire Hall, authorized
by the President’s office. Maintenance official David Rhoads has
assured that the reform wilt not end there. “We have a list of priorities,
and Squire is at the top,” he said. “This summer automatic doors will
be installed, bathrooms will be refurbished and curb cuts will be placed
throughout the campus.”
Rhoads could not verify exactly when the accessibility .process
would start, due to the uncertainties of shipment and delivery. Demand
for the necessary fixtures is high, he said, thus availability is low.
“The administration has been very cooperative about the whole
thing,” said Ryan. “They have drawn out plans. They have listened to
our problems and have made many promises. Their talk is well
intentioned.” But Ryan is anxious. “Now I would like to see actual
results,” he said.
Ryan is afraid the handicapped community might take the small
concession of the ramp at Squire Hall and sit quietly herein. He does
not want to bargain. Handicapped Access is fighting a moral issue as
well as a legal one. Section 504’s preamble states: “No otherwise
qualified handicapped individual . . shall soley by reason of his
handicap, be excluded from the participation in, be denied the benefits
of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity
receiving Federal financial assistance.” Ryan feels the key words are
"any program or activity” for leaving no margin when bargaining for
accessibility.
Handicapped Access, still in its infancy, will lose Ryan’s services to
graduation. The project, the only NYP1RG Handicapped Access Project
state-wide, has done remarkably well so far according to its
coordinator. NYPIRG plans to put out a “Cookbook” to instruct other
state colleges and universities on how to fight the plight of
handicapped students on and around campuses.

Activism and SA
The Schwartz-Bogal-Abolphia letter (4/12/78)
convincingly argued that students and their
government (the SA) should become active in
national political struggles. I thoroughly agree with
that argument. However, I must object to a
particular portion of the letter which was both
misinformed and misleading. The part of the letter I'
am speaking of is that which discussed the recent
political record of the SA.
Schwartz et al asked “How come our SA has not
done one newsworthy deed in one whole month
why weren’t our elected officials at the coal miners’
speech trying to organize some kind of student
support either for or against them?’’ First, the coal
minors’ speech was sponsored by the &amp;4. 1 believe
that sponsorship qualifies not only as a “newsworthy
deed,’’ but as an admirable' expression of
student-worker solidarity. Moreover, while I had
hoped that SA President Richard Mott would attend
the lecture, and while I hope'that in the future SA
will lend even greater support to the labor
movement, it must be noted that Mott was
instrumental in arranging the coal miners’
appearance here. Not only did he endorse the
original motion in the Senate which allocated funds
for the miners’ speech, he also helped scrape up
additional money for the event when expenses
exceeded my original estimate.
“Right on.” Let us become more politically
conscious and active, but let us congratulate rather
than criticize our elected representatives when they
arrange events which facilitate such political

Editor’s Note: The caption under discussion, written
in the tongue-in-cheek style that has helped to make
him what he is today, was penned by none other
than the EditoHn-Chief-elect himself. Jay Rosen.
And it most certainly was not intended as a
put-down of “locals" who have had, and will
continue to have, a profound effect on all aspects of
student Hfe at this University.

The Guest Opinion that appeared in the
Wednesday issue of The Spectrum entitled “On the
new leadership at SA. The Spectrum," contained one
error. The second paragraph that begins with “Our
student teachers ..should read “Our student
leaders..
The Spectrum apologizes. ,
’

■&gt;

How come the newly elected officers of SA have
not responded to the questions raised in the Jeff
Lessoff controversy? It is obvious that Jeff Lessoff
was removed unfairly and without justifiable cause.
The projects that he wanted to finish remain
unfinished in order for Ms. Baum to receive her
much needed experience on Sub Board.
I feel that Jeff’s right of free speech has been
violated. Lessoff, who is known for his criticism of
The Spectrum and the recent election of “The

Party” raised many issues that nobody else had the
nerve to bring out. Jeff should not be fired for
voicing a different opinion. If Jeff Lessoff (who was
Vice President of Sub Board) was fired for no reason
and for voicing his opinion, what chance to the rest
of us have to voice our opinions?
I still don’t know why Jeff Lessoff was fired? 1
bet that a lot of other students don’t know the
reasons for his removal either. I wish someone would
tell me!

The dope industry
with gross annual sales of over 4 billion
dollars
plays a vital though seldom acknowledged role in the
American economy, asserts a report in the April issue of High Times
—

—

magazine.

The $4 billion figure, based on the wholesale price of the
estimated 10,000 tons of pot consumed by Americans yearly, would
rank the dope industry with the music, sports, film and publishing
industries, according to U.S. Commerce Department statistics.
Says the report: ‘The average wholesale price of a ton of dope
and there is no shortage of buyers with ready cash
is $600,000,
indicating gross sales of $4,200,000 per year at the wholesale level.
(Profits from resale, which can involve an indefinite number of
transactions and middlepersons before the product reaches the ultimate
consumer, cannot be reliably estimated.)”
The report would indicate that the amount of Americans spend
every year on marijuana is comparable to what they spend on other
recreations. According to the U.S. Department of Commerce index for
personal consumption expenditures, Americans outlay $3-and-a-half
billion on books, $8 billion on magazines and newspaper, nearly $3
billion on movies and $1.7 billion on spectator sports annually, while
$3 billion is spent on records and tapes every year in the U.S.,
according to music industry sources.
High Times makes the case that the reefer economy is inextricably
tied to the American economy as a whole. “The enormous amount of
capital that is not “laundered” put of the dope business cycle is plowed
back into it,” says the report, “resulting in the proliferation of
quasi-formal corporations; giving employment to thousands of
individuals and creating thousands of small-time entrepeneurships at
the level of the local retailer; supporting small and large farmers at
home and abroad; consuming millions of dollars in shipping,
transportation, packaging, communications, security, data processing,
and other types of commercially produced goods and services whose
resulting profits are taxable, though the dope dealer’s income is not.”

Palmer DiMeola: enigmatic evening

Barbara Komansky

More than anything Tuesday
night, the Robert Palmer concert
was an enigma. Considering the
combination of acts

former Return to Forever guitarist
Al DiMeola), I would have
ordinarily

a shiny,
front-of-the-closet crowd, with a
slight favor towards disco. After
all, DiMeola is the Elegant Gypsy
and Palmer is beginning to receive
airplay across the soul charts. In
tyew York and Boston and
Washington D.C., Palmer draws a
well-dressed Cosmo audience, and
is big on the which-model-issl eeping-with-which-ad-mantonight scene. In Buffalo, only the

However, despite all
these factors and some othrfr
considerations, Palmer managed
to stand on his feet through the
show and even play an encore.
DiMeola's style is still very
reminiscent of his Return to
Forever days, when that band
became a purely instrumental jazz
group. Fellow Foreverers Stanley
Clarke and Lenny White also went
on to solo careers, and have
pioneered quite a bit in making
the fusion form a legitimate one.

became part of). During a long

duetted with his yibist, filling
Shea's with pure jazz sound.
The audience roared for
DiMeola, with a standing ovation

following almost every number. It
looks like velocity and volume can
be a continual key to success for
MiMeola in Buffalo, and one can
safely assume that he will be back

Palmer took the stage with his
band. Despite his relative
anonyminity, he received a warm
reception. For a performer who
relies heavily upon sex in
marketing. Palmer was pretty
conservative in his stage action
and dress. No shirts open to die
waist, no painted-on-white-satinslacks. Mick dagger has nothing to
worry about as far as prancing
goes. Palmer was reserved, and
when clapping the rhythm out,
seemed to be doing it more for his
own enjoyment than to incite the
audience.
It was pretty easy to tell what
tunes were from Palmer's latest, ,
Double Fun. According to Island
Records, Palmer's label, the
disco-soul feel of the release is
what’s getting his add-on the the
BLK playlist. "Best Of Both;
Worlds," "Come Over," "Nightcr
People," and the single "Every
Kind*. People," were all dancing
numbers, which fortunately
passed up the omnipresent hi-hat
cymbals that make disco releases
dismayingly identifiable.
Sneakin' suspicion
At times Palmer assumed
varying masks. During "Come
Over" the strange vibe of Bowie
passed across the stage, made even
stranger by
Palmer's physical
similarities to that man of
"Fame." Palmer mimics Toots
Hibber during "Pressue Drop" and
Lowell George's spirit is strongly
felt during the "Sailin' Shoes/Hey
Julia/Sneak'n Sally Through The
Alley" medley. In fact, the
ultimate combination for Palmer's
act would be to have Little Feat
come off his records and follow
Paimgr onto the stage. As
impossible as this sounds, it would
provide the needed tightness that
was missing for Palmer on
Tuesday night. This in spite of the
fact that pianist James Smith
demonstrated heavy bill
Payne-"Dixie Chicken" influence
during "Women Are Smarter."
Well if we cant't have that.
Palmer should at least be given a
bit more time for rehearsal. His
statement that he had recently
taken up the guitar was rather
telling. He looked inappropriate
with it around his neck. The band
could have been much tighter, and
the bill could also have had a
better match than DiMeola. It just
wasn't that easy to sneak through
this time.
And you know you'd never
fool us in a million years.

It is* inconcaivabla to ma, after attending his Thursday
performance at the Century Theatre, how David Bromberg could ever
fail to please even the most picky enthusiast of almost any particular
genre of music. He's a master of guitar as well as of fiddle and
mandolin, and can play and sing the blues with more than a touch of

entertainment in themselves.
Using the same backup band (except for the bass player) that
appeared with him here at Clark Gym last fall, Bromberg created the
versatile, full sound that makes his music so interesting. Bromberg and
company can go from a bluegrass-flavored, fiddle-mandolin jam to an
Irish jig to Dixieland, all within one song, with equal proficiency.
Perhaps his most popular music, though, falls into the R&amp;B-boogie
category. Tunes like "Danger Man", "Sharon", and "Send Me to the
'Lecfric Chair" were among the evening's most well-received and
enjoyable. Bromberg can actually make his slide guitar sing his name
in a-woman's voice, yet so that everyone in the house recognizes it.
—

Everybody is a star

Dick Fegy's acoustic guitar solo midway through the performance
provided a break for the other musicians as well as an opportunity to
let his own talent shine through. Bromberg's willingness to step aside
for a moment and let someone else be heard is just one reason vdiy the

show lasted an hour and a half and the band took two encores, it
just wasn't long enough.
Previous to Bromberg's set, Maria Muldaur and her band played a
tight, understated, hour-long show. Sticking out somewhat was John
Kahn, noted for his work with Jerry Garcia. Muldaur hat mellowed out
a bit, and though the tumes she did were often earthy and bluesy, she
newer really "got down" enough. The set's high point was J.J. Gala's
"Cajun Moon", slower than her recorded version, with an excellently
dreamy flavor. "I Got A Man" was much more soulful and gutsy than
authoress' Rory Block's treatment. John Firmin, of Bromberg's band,
added some sweet saxophone for a jazzier quality. Surprisingly and
Muldaur didn't come back to do an encore,
disappointingly
although she recieved sufficient applause to warrant One.
Opening the show was Boston's Fat Chance. Their strong points
were an excellent lead guitarist vdto could also fiddle, and a talented
female vocalist. The five-piece band definitely knew their stuff, some
of which was rather catchy. Anna Pepper's voice holds the potential for
making Woes tunes (like "Love Me Like a Man", for example) really
sizzle. If she develops that potential instead of being coy, then the
band she fronts will definitely have more than just a Fat Chance.

Such sterotyping is not

A change in thought
At a very obvious level,
director Richard Barr ignores the
years that have passed between
the time of the play's debut and
the present. By setting the play in
1978, Barr has distorted
chronology and history beyond
recognition. Martha blithely refers
tp World War II being twenty

years ago (sic). George, who is in
his twiddle forties, tells a story
about being in .a speakeasy as a
teenager. A pretty mean feat
considering Prohibition ended in
the early thirties.
American thought has changed
during that specific
decade and a half. People living in
an academic community during
the sixties would have been faced
with student activism against the
Vietnam war, against pollution,
for Civil Rights, for the Equal
Rights Amendment, et al. George
and Martha, whatever their ages,
seem not to have been affected by
this. Nick and Honey, who would
have been of the aforementioned
dissenting generation, have not

world they live in.

A case for self-definition

Much fuss is made in the
course of action over having
children. George and Martha fight
over their twenty-one year old
son, who, in fact, does not exist.
Nick explains that one of the
reasons why he married Honey
was her hysterical pregnancy. The
interest in progeny, these
non-existant fruits of the bed, is
not sexual. Although everyone in
the play accuses their respective
spouses of sterility or impotence,

This potential, when exposed

the first few minutes to be
innocent enough, turns
progressively more violent as the
film develops. The same thing
happens to his father, who spends
most of his time evading the men
whom John Cassavetes, the
movie's only purely evil character,
has assigned to capture him. The

�Peterson's unique way with jazz is classical
by Peter Gordon
Spectrum Saff

Wrifr

When classifying music, difficulties ultimately arise.
Of course there are some basics: rock and roll, classical,
jazz, muzak; but often enough these categories overlap,
leading to new subdivisions of music. Country-swing and
folk-rock are good examples. These miiMc conglomerates
have taken hold in the seventies and have opened all types
of ears to all ranges of music. Most obvious in Jazz is the
jazz-rock surge (Return to Forever, Herbie Hancock, ate.).
But, hidden down underneath the mountainous regions of
inexhaustable pressed vinyl is another type of jazz fusion:

The Gold of The Tigers by Jorge Luis Borges.
Literary history may well regard Jorge Luis Borges as a minor
poet. Although he is the most important literary figure to come from
Argentina, his poetry lacks the breadth of insight that would make it
Immortal. Whereas Pablo Neruda, a fallow South American and, in
many respects, superior poet, plunged himself into “vast and foreign
domains" of poetic imagination, Borges has remained tied to the
narrow offshoots of his singular universe.
This universe abounds with classical myths, writers of the past, and
fictional tales. His best poems show a preoccupation with his own
limited consciousness, sometimes reveling in it, sometimes reviling jt.
And he uses it to create very personal, very powerful verses. But when
Borges is unsure of his beliefs, when he has none of his own convictions
to react with, his poems lose direction and become mere mental
meanderings.
A search for

The Gold of the Tigers Borges' most recent poetry, translated by
Alistair Reid, shows the poet at his best and worst. In the title poem,
Borges despairs over the fact that his past experiences and imagined
knowledge have forsaken him. At one time, the gold sky or the yellow
Bengal tiger could satisfy his need for a blonde-haired lover. But he sees
now that his universe is void where she is concerned:
0 sunsets, O tigers, 0 wonders
of Myth and Epic
O gold more dear to me, gold of your hair
which these hands crave to touch. Every moment, every minute
experience, believes Borges, can be poetic if mankind can become more
aware. But his search for this awareness often results in poems which
are little more tharka crude cataloguings of arbitrary things, places and
rather than insightful examinations. Most of "Inventory" lists

Uncertain identity
One of the most appealing features of Borges' writing is his
personification of time. 'Time is the substance of which man is made,"
he has said, "the very proof of our existence is the fact that we have
taken up shafts of time, with paths colored by what we have created."
In one of the book's strongest poems, "Suicide", Borges describes the
connection between time and his human consciousness:

n the end, esjta freely admits, it is Borges' lack of diverse experience
which afflicts ffoftoctftain identity. The myths, tales, and roles he uses
to juggaltis preconceptions fade away. Paradoxically, perhaps his most
significant poetic achievement in The Gold of The Tigers comes in "I

BOOB TODB TALK
by Charlie Weiner
Sptctrum Arts Staff

On any given night, television viewers across the country are
treated to any number of shows in which there are, among other
things, murders, shootouts, extortions and kidnappings. The
police/crime genre is a proven quantity on television. Most of these
programs command high ratings, and most are pretty much the same.
Within the course of any given episode there will be some crime, love,
(i.e. sex and romance) and a solution. Each show has its own little
something to make it seem different. One features a coronor; another
takas place in Hawaii. Some feature private detectives; others, "real"
police officers with lines like "Bookem Danno, murder one".
Two shows which take very different approaches to the crime
genre are Charity’s Angels and Stanley and Hutch. In the case of
Charley's Angels, the approach is to use beautiful female detectives.
The program relies almost completely on the looks of these women,
/nd it falls flat on it's pretty face as a result Starsky and Hutch,
however does work. While its basic thrust is almost identical to the
others, it contains one rare element: a real relationship between two
men.

play on the percussion rhythms spread the Life ritual
into the basic Word for more to hear. No fear.

The key to a good television show is not found in the plot, not in

inject a sense of reality into the all-too-often unreal characters they

Delia in retrospect. r;~~
Lev appears
Self-styled campus prophet
Michael Stephen Levinson had
begun bothering students with his
idea to dissolve SA and reform it
as a course for credit weeks before
Delia’s victory. Each day, the
infamous Lev could be seen
cruising the Ratskellar with his
raspy, unending voice, badgering
students into signing their names
to his loosely worded petition,
which called for a referendum on
his scheme.
At a candidates debate in Haas
Lounge, Lev appeared, awakening
the listless audience and cornering
Delia into admitting that he
“would love course credit”
instead of a $2000 Presidential
Stipend. Delia though, denounced
Lev’s
brainchild
as totally
unaware,
unworkable and
of course, that he would have to
return to die same lounge a
month later and repeat the speech
at a special forum. However, as
ludicrous
sounded,
as
it
Levinson’s idea soon to be given
the title “Levetendum”
was a
technically legal one. As long as

signatures,
Delia could not

even to the most casual observer.
Quite simply, the Levferendum, if
passed, would have brought a
quizzical end to Delia’s infant
term as President. The implication

Delia was trying to
save his own skin.
This strategic error on Delia’s
part

�A lesson in fortitude: victim
of tragedy makes recovery
by Brenda Stray hall
Spectrum

Staff Writer

“1 don’t feel that the accident was a tragedy, it’s
that happened.” Speaking was Susan

just something

Deinhardt, a freshman here, about the automobile
accident last year that resulted in the loss of her

right leg.

17, 1977 was the first day of the spring
and would have been
Susan’s first day of college, having graduated a
semester early from WilliamsviUe North High School.
It was another cold, snowy day in Buffalo and the
streets were slick. Susan’s car skidded off to the side
of the road and was hit by another car. As she was
exchanging insurance information with the other
driver, she was hit by a passing car.
Susan spent 11 weeks in the hospital, in traction
for the duration of her stay.
Susan spoke of the time there as a period of
reflection and a chance to think, although she was
ketp extremely busy, being tutored in English and
Math. “1 can’t say that my stay in the hospital was
terrible because I met a lot of really nice people and
it was a sort of sanctuary for me,” she said.
January

semester for UB students,

Famous
One day Susan received a phone call from a
woman she thought was her aunt. After a moment
she said, “Do you know who this is?” Susan realized
it wasn’t her aunt but comedienne Totie Fields,
calling to give her encouragement. Someone had
written to Totie about Susan, which prompted the
call. Having lost a kg herself, Fields told Susan her
biggest goal was to someday Walk with a cane.
Susan vowed to do more than that. “It never
occurred to me that I’d never walk again,” she
remarked. “I knew 1 was going to lose my leleg
although no one would give me a straight story.”
Nerve graphs were taken from her left leg in an
effort to save the right one. Susan was told by her
father that she had two choices: she could have her
knee fused together, enabling her to save the leg but
remain crippled for the test of her life, or have her
leg amputated and be fitted with an artificial limb.
Susan opted for the latter, because it would give her
continued mobility. “It was the logical choice,” she
reflected, “because I wanted to be able to do
everything I had done before the accident.”

Fighting back
v
Susan credits her adjustment to the right

attitude. She adjusted so well, in fact, that she served
as a model of inspiration to the other patients. “My
strength came from my parents who were very
supportive,” she commented. “My mother was
worried at first, but my father said he never had any
doubts because I’ve always been independent.”
As soon as Susan was out of the hospital and
back home, determined to transcend her handicap,
she scrubbed the kitchen floor with the aid of her
crutches to show her family she wanted no special
treatment.
“Shortly after the accident my father asked me
if I wanted to continue driving. 1 told him of course
I did!" she related. Her father had her car specially
adjusted with a left foot accelerator.
Inside of ten months Susan was dancing,
cross-country skiing, swimming, hiking, sailing,
sledding and traveling. Susan is extremely modest
about bouncing back so fast. “Once you know your
limitations you can do almost anything,” she said
simply.

Snow scare
Of course there were times when it wasn’t easy.
Her fears rose to the surface with the first snowfall.
“1 got really depressed wondering if I’d be able to
get around. What if I fall?” she recalled thinking.
The first day, Susan’s roommate said she would walk
with her to class, but Susan, not wanting to depend
on anyone, set out to class on her own. After that
she was able to face the winter, falling only a few

New greenhouse is
being constructed
A combination greenhouse, teaching lab and storage center is
currently being constructed adjacent to the Cooke-Hochstetter
tower on the Amherst Campus.
Work on the project began last fall and the building is slated for
completion by late August and should be available for use in
September. The $700,000 building will be used as a teaching and
research facility, unlike the greenhouse presently outside Qsry Hall
on the Main Street Campus, which does not have classrooms. ‘The
Biology department is all out here {at Amherst] now, except for
the men working in the greenhouse,” said Assistant Vice President
for Facilities and Planning John Neal.
Because of the larger size of the greenhouse and the presence of
a classroom/lab within it, the potential exists for more classes to be
offered in plant biology and related areas. Biology professor
Vincent Santilli said, ‘There were at one time three positions
within the University for working with higher plants. We have since
gone to two, but the University is presently searching for an
ecologist for research with plants and also to teach.”
Santilli doubted that the presence of the new greenhouse
would result in a larger inventory of plants for research. Yet he felt
that more money would be made available for the new greenhouse.
In an urban university, more emphasis is placed on biological
research which can be applied to medicine or dentistry, according
to Santilli. “With a new facility,” he said, “there exists the potential
for obtaining private grant, funds for research, a possibility that
could only aid the biology department. It is more favorable for
grants, but whether there will be any remains to be seen. This could
benefit the Department, the University and the community.”

times.

Susan’s father had suggested transferring to a
smaller college in order to get around easier. But
Susan insisted on returning here last September
because of her major and maintains, “Walking is
good for me!”
Susan is in the Communicative Disorders and
Sciences Department. She hopes to put her own
experience into use someday by making a career of
working with children and adults who have speech
and language defects. “I’ll know what they’re going
through and can relate to them. 1 hope that they’ll
look at me and realize they can make it, too,” she
said. “I realize how great human potential is.”
For Susan, there certainly seems to be no
obstacle to great. In fact, this reporter felt rather
lazy in comparison. “People look at me and realize
that the same thing can happen to them,” she
realted. “But, perahps they’ll understand that they
too could manage to go on with their lives if they
were handicapped.”

lasted until 12 a.m.
The fest was conceived two months ago by
Fargo’s Head Residents Kathy Ilardi and Phil
Samuels who felt something should be done in the
residence hall tcf repair the damage inflicted upon
the halls. It was also a unique way of bringing the
quad residents together. “It was a great cooperative
effort,” said Ilarid. “Everybody worked very hard
and it all paid off.”
According to Samuels, the students took the
event very seriously. “We were able to capture the
students’ imagination; the response was just
unbelievable. Over 50 sketches were submitted to
Facilities and Planning,” he said. In the final
outcome, 49 murals were painted on Fargo’s walls.
There were paintings of such popular figures as
Spiderman, Ziggy, Bugs Bunny and Mickey Mouse.
Murals were done of rainbows, starcastles, hobbits, a
jungle, baseball teams, and the ocean, as well as
numerous colorful geometric designs. There„was even
an old-fashioned clothes washing scene painted in
the laundry room.
“The paintings are incredible,” raved Assistant
Director of Housing Cliff Wilson. “From the central
housing standpoint we’re more than pleased. The
community spirit was just outstanding. The whole
thing was just fantastic! Congratulations to Phil,

Thomas and scored the fourth
Sabre goal, much to the crowd’s
delight. '
seems that although the
Sabres were victorious, they did
not play up to their potential.
Against a Ranger team that often
seemed sluggish and uninspired,
the Sabres hardly looked like a
threat to the ominous Montreal
Canadians.
The Rangers, on the other

hand, had the chances but could
not put the puck in the net. Thi$,
along with their many defensive
lapses, proved too much to
overcome. Inexperience does not
explain all their mistakes either.
Too many times the Rangers let
Sabres’ forwards skate freely in
their own zone, utilizing the
stick-check as opposed to the
more effective body check.

Qfncter of Housing,
Cliff Wlson, said that some of
CUS’sft problems 4 could be
attributed to the fact that teal
year was lb first in the residence
halls. “They had some confusion
because it was thefirst time they
went
the&amp; room
through
assignment process,” he said
“This year though, they have a
good r—coordinator and
It will not tappen again*” he said.
Wilson doubts that' Collcues
,r
“sell rooms to get members to
join. “Four years ago when the
idea of mklentiil colleges was
new,” he explained, “they used
rooms
to attract
good
membership. Today, this is greatly
reduced, partially because the
ChOnges fasve been filling space.”
Wilson aaid that this year the
Housing Office has taken bock a
great number of bods from th*
Colleges which has reduced the
frequency of fire abuses.
Charges against CPM and CMS
were more vague. One student

&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).

Athletic Board taking voluntary SA budget cut
by David Levy
Campus Editor

The
Athletic
Governance
Board (AGB) had agreed Monday
to take a “completely voluntary”
budget cut of 4.04 percent or
$10,000 from the four year fixed
allocation of $247,000 given to
the Athletic Department annually
by Student Association, according
to SA President Richard Mott.
Mott said that he was “pleased
with the attitude of the AGB’s
members.” The decision to take
the cut was made at an informal
meeting attended by Men’s
Muto,
Athletic
Director Ed
Woman’s Athletic Director Betty
Dimmick, Director of Intramurals
and Recreation Bill Monkarsh and
his assistant Steve Allen and SA
officials Mott, Vice-President Karl
Schwartz,
Treasurer
Fred
Wawrzonek and Director of
Athletics Ken Kotarski.
Sa is asking organizations to
take budget cuts in hopes of
erasing a $47,000 deficit. At

of $7000 less than expected, SA
still faces a $20,000 gap. Stott

where his organization will further
reduce its expenditures on Friday.

AGB’s main concern was that

Kotarski said, “but we were
concerned that everyone should
take a cut not just Athletics and
Sub-Board.”
Mott claimed that the AGB
was very understanding about
SA’s problems. “We explained our
budget to them (AGB) and the
predicament that we were faced
with,” he said. Mott then went on
to explain to the AGB that SA
would also be making cuts in its
budget allaying any fears the
Board had about standing alone in
making budget cuts.

Hoped for repeal of
student health fee is
defeated by the State

After months of campaigning by the Student Association of the
State University (SASU) a hoped-for repeal of the controversial health
fee was defeated by the State legislature. According to SASU
representative Allen Clifford, the legislature felt that student interest
generated across the State was not enough to repeal the fee. Said
Gifford, “They didn’t think that we felt too strongly about the fee and
that instead of showing an interest in it, we were concentrating on the
TAP issues.”
SASU, in a last effort will now seek an amendment to the SUNY
supplemental budget to have the fee covered by the Tuition Assistance
Program (TAP). SASU is requesting those who boycotted to pay the
fee and clear their accounts. A
According to Clifford, 700-800 students took part in the boycott
at this University while about 20,000 participated at campuses across
the State. He said, “The fee could have been repealed if more people
had shown an interest. We will continue to fight it, but there isn’t
much we can do now.”
SASU organizations at universities across the State began a
campaign last semester to gather support for the repeal of the fee (of
$17 per year at this University) on the grounds that the money is to be
placed in a general fund under the guise of a health fee to make up a $2
million budget deficit. SASU also objected to the fee because it
conflicts with SUNY policy. According to the Board of Trustees
Uniform Fee and Tuition Act of 1963, all University costs are to be
included in tuition fees. The Policy specifically states that a separate
health fee will not be imposed.
SASU members across the State circulated posters, petitions, and
pledge cards in an effort to gather support for the boycott. In addition,
they directed letter writing campaigns and lobbying sessions at Senate
Majority Leader Warren Anderson and Governor Carey.
Hopes for repeal of the fee were reinforced by Anderson staff
member James Ruhl who said in March that “there is an excellent
chance the fee will be repealed.”
Now that the legislature has approved the fee, SASU will redirect
its efforts to obtain an amendment to the supplemental budget.

The cost of building the proposed 6.4 mile Light

percent from original estimated costs to $452
million, according to John Winston, Director of

and that “every day will bring that figure higher.”
Winston addressed a group of local, state and

deficits of the entire NFTA rail/bus system with
evidence of a State and local consensus on how these
deficits will be met, and an update on capital costs
including payment provisions for aqy overruns. The
required data was secured by Alan M. Voorhees Inc.,
a Washington, D.C. firm with whom the State and
federal governments have been working.
The Voorhees study claims the ridership of an
all-bus system would increase 17 percent by 1985,
but that an LRRT system with a network of
complementary bus lines would show an increase of
59 percent. The figure is lower than that originally
calculated, but ranks high in comparison to proposed
mass transit lines elsewhere. “The reason for
increased ridership would be that the system’s level
of services will improve with the addition of the
LRRT,” explained Knight.
$.70 fare
Figures arrived at by the consultants project an
operating deficit of S21.1 million by 1985 with the
present system as opposed to a $15.3 million deficit
if the rail system is added. The figures are based on
an expected fare of 70 cents for either system, and
take into account the current rate of inflation.
Responsibility for each deficit dollar resulting
from current operations is shared by the federal
government which assumes SO percent, the State at
25 percent, Erie County at 22 percent, and Niagara
County the remaining 3 percent. When the counties
neglect to fulfill the obligations of the debt, the
State deducts that amount from their aid allotment.
a S However, claiming that LRRT will not benefit
Niagara County, Chairman of Niagara County
Legislature Russel 1 Park proposed a resolution to
take all possible legal action to protect the county
from any cost overruns and operating deficits if the
LRRT is added to the transportation system.

In a survey conducted by the Voorhees firm, 78
percent of those questioned responded affirmatively
to the query, “Do you favor a continued use of local
public funds to support local public transportation?”
Presently, each resident in Erie and Niagara Counties
pays SI.33 annually towards deficits. If the LRRT is
constructed, this figure will rise to $2.64 per year, as
opposed to an" escalation to $3.65 if the
transportation system remains unchanged.
NFTA officials said that the federal loan
administration (UMTA) wants them to submit a
resolution or written statement explaining how the
deficit problem will be dealt with as proof that the
city wants the system. NFTA plans to propose the
present deficit sharing formula to UMTA, in spite of
reports by Representative Nowak that formula
changes are possible. “Who knows exactly what will
occur by the time the line is finished?” he asked.
Light rail, chosen after financial considerations,
is different from heavy rail, as its energy is supplied
to the rail cars by means of overhead power wires,
and not by a third rail on the ground. The weight of
the rail cars is also slightly less.

Canada, Beyer crossed the Peace Bridge back into the United States
in October 1977.
Represented by former United States Attorney General
Ramsey Clark, Beyer faved two three-year concurrent jail sentences
stemming from a 1968 assault conviction. The incident prompting
the conviction occurred during a “symbolic sanctuary” taken in the
Unitarian Universalis! Church on Hlmwood Avenue, where Beyer
and Bruce Cline had sought refuge from the draft. Fighting with
FBI and police outside the church resulted in nine arrests and the
Buffalo Nine trial.
Although originally scheduled for March 29, the trial was
postponed by Federal Curcuit Judge John Curtin because his
“counter was full.” Prosecuting attorney Theodore Burns said that
the court session would take the form of oral arguments concerning
two motions filed by Clark. The session will be held at 2 p.m. on
the 6th floor of Federal Court.

Cheap shot fee

A sin to steal
To the Editor.

Spectrum article of Friday, it was recounted that
I don’t like that
since Yogi had said there is no sin
word either. But 1 know that the greater the distance
you put between you and other people, the further
you are from knowing life as an initmate love affair.
On Thursday afternoon after the theft, let me
relate to you the things I was feeling. The thought
occurred to me that, the next chance I get, I’m going
to rip someone off to regain an equilibrium in my
material possessions. I was wishing all sorts of things
on everyone
I saw the strangers as my foes and
wished the earth would open up and swallow them
all.
The passion of those hours passed and today my
attitude is partially restored. I picture a person who
always wishes anyone they don’t like would die and
rot away
or the person who insults without then
thinking and making ammends or the person that
would steal from another person not from a system
like the Government or Food Service or the Library

attitude that I had yesterday then proceeded to
victimize others without thinking exactly what he

off.

benefit of a doubt that they are thinking and
therefore caring individuals. Maybe I’m wrong, but I
like to think it. And now to the person who took my

In a typically insensitive move meant to cover up an
intentional manipulation of the SUNY budget disaster, the
State legislature has vetoed SASU's request to repeal the
all-new, all-controversial and all-gimicky health fee.
Intolerable is that, although officials at this University and in
Albany have publicly admitted that the $2 million-plus is
not at all going toward health services, but to offset SUNY
budget deficits. State officials can stilt vote aside the fee's
repeal.

Let’s consider the person who would take
another person's notebooks. You may be thinking
that I am speaking of a very small segment of the
University community, but it is the same attitude
that compels people to steal more monitarily
valuable items
calculators, texts, skis. It is the
same attitude that makes a small group of people
push to get on a bus even when it is clear that there
are plenty of seats for everyone. It’s the same
attitude that allows a person to lazily leave his tray
on the cafeteria table or ignite a fiercly fuming
cigarette on a bus with no concern for the other
humans around him. In short, the group of people
here that don’t care about anyone they don’t know
is not a small one. Such careless, unthinking acts.

steal then is senseless. I’m not telling you this for

interminable budget crises and cheap, discriminatory means

This alleged health fee is a direct slap in the face to

According to the Board of Trustees Uniform Fee and
Tuition Act of 1963, all University costs are to be included
in tuition fees. The policy specifically states that a separate
health fee will not be imposed.
SASU representative at this school Allen Clifford made a
valiant effort, in coordination with SASU reps statewide, to
get students not to pay the health fee and to register their
protests with the State legislature, but his work was
obviously not enough.

Threatened

Mandatory cuts
The coming of spring heralds not only warm weather but
the inevitable budget cuts that must be made by the Student
Association (SA). This year SA, facing a $47,000 budget
deficit, must make some hard decisions about where to cut
expenditures. Sub Board I, Inc. and the Athletic Governance
Board (AGB) have made those decisions easier to reach by
taking voluntary budget reductions amounting to $10,000
for each organization. In the face of ever increasing
problems, from student apathy to budgetary crises, the
student body can only hope to be strong when all cooperate
and agree to help each other out on an individual or
organizational basis.
Of course, how the financial deficit came to be in the
first place is another story, and an apparently dumb one at
that.

Get up it’s Spring In
To the Editor.

I agree with the majority of students that it is
time U.B. had a spring festival like that of S.U.C.
Brockport. However, U.B.’s Saturday, May 6,
Springfest seems to be missing the spirit of
spontaneity that Brockport’s Spring In embodies.
Two years ago I was a student at Brockport.
From the first day of class we were reminded that
Spring In would be held on one of the first warm
days of school. As the snow melted and the sun
began to shine, we speculated what day the festival
would be held. No one was sure until the morning
when campus police drove around with their sirens
on and announced, “Get up. It’s Spring In!”
Following the announcement, no one goes to

class, including the instructors. Commuters arrivings
for class readily join the celebration. It’s a carefree
day of music, sunshine, and more free beer than one
can drink.
Spring In is an overwhelming success because
students are not apathetic about it. Everyone is
ecstatic about their unscheduled holiday. It’s like a
special gift from the Student Activities Board.
I’m afraid U.S.’s spring festival will be just
another weekend activity. The majority of
commuters, working students, teachers, and even
Main Street campus residents probably will not
attend the EUicott Springfest. It’s too bad that U.B.
cannot organize an activity that the whole University
will attend, as Brockport has done.

was seen by many observers to spew a
column of yellow vomit through the air onto the
front page of the Burnbeby Gazeteer Instead ot
being disgusted by his vile act, Shroud merely
placed a stick of gum into his mouth and said,
“that felt rather good. I’ve been sick lately."
Several of the students left the lounge in a rush,
apparently to make 10:00 classes, but several
remained, awed by Shroud and his vomit. The
group only disbanded at 1 00, after a thorough
reading of the sports page, and after several
students almost finished the crossword puzzle. But
the next day, at the very same time, Shroud was
back in the same chair A group of 100 people was
present, waiting in a semi-circle of blue chairs.
Shroud let no one down. At 9:50 a m., as if on a
cycle, Shroud spewed another column of yellow
vomit onto the front page. To the amazement of
no one, a group of seven other students, calling
themselves the “Yellow Column,” spewed seven
other “columns” of essentially yellow vomit. Hach

100-200 dollars last month in stipend salary and what did
they do to deserve it? In my mind nothing!! I say nothing
because being an “aware” student in this University, in the
last month, I have sat at a table in Norton Union (Squire
my ass) and informed people about the anticipated march
of Nazi’s in Skokie. Furthermore, I have been listening to
other people inform me about the problems of the coal
miners, the injustice of the Wilmington Ten ease, the facts
of the Bakke case, the human rights violations, in the
“Communist” Soviet Union, elements of Hassidic
elements of Christian
Philosophy,
philosophy, and
NYPIRG’s current legislation. All of these dedicated
people are not being paid but are working hard to present
issues to people, whereby the people could further
investigate and involve themselves in these issues. Two of
these dedicated people, Mike Niman and Paul Friedman
ran for office this year and lost but they are still working
hard. On the other hand, our elected officials are not to be
seen. They are, I suppose, “Working Hard” in their offices
but what does that do for me or any other student?
Perhaps 1 have blind optimism but I am almost positive
that either Comrades Friedman or Niman (Why comrades?
Because they truely care about us, they are one with us.)

would use the amazing power that the SA has (monetarily,
but what e^se-seems .to matter ip. America) to help us
disseminate'information and even organize support for or
against things that I have just mentioned.
The question one now asks is why should SA officials
get involved in national issues? Perhaps for no reason than
that these issues affect us tremendously. But this is not
what is important What is important is that our student
leaders are not even telling us about student issues. I do
not see any student government representatives in Norton
Union or in any other highly accessible or visible area who
are telling us about student issues. I would enjoy and I’m
sure many students would enjoy being informed about
student issues (and 1 don’t mean setting up Spring-In. 1 can
get drunk anytime I like. Unfortunately 1 can’t organize a
student boycott against the abolition of the four-course
load anytime 1 want. Only representatives of Student
Government can effectively organize around student
issues.) The point that I am trying to make is that there are
many dedicated people in this University trying Lo inform
us in national issues. But when it comes to student issues, I
see nothing For some reason the student body is forced to
elect a few representatives to run their affairs. Even though
in theory every student can contribute to SA it seams that
in practice the representatives control what happens in the
organization
This situation has arisen because
the
representatives have not and continue to neglect to
petition for student support. I suppose that any person
who would run for the leadership of the SA would have
instilled in him a tremendous dedication to seeing that the
entire student body was aware of all the student issues.
The present administration has not shown this dedication
at all and for this reason I say they are doing nothing.
This brings to the question of the likely new editor of
The Spectrum Jay Rosen was one of the people who

administration to power. It is widely known now that The
Spectrum picks the winners of the SA election Mr Mott
agreed with Jay Rosen’s ridiculous idea of getting
professional advisors for SA This must have done wonders
for Mr Rosen’s ego and in return he gave Mr. Mott’s party
The Spectrum endorsement. Mr. Rosen’s idea is ridiculous
to me because it just will alienate the general student body
more than it is now. I feel students money should be spent
on informing students on issues so that in turn students
can fight for what they believe (by boycotts, petitions,
demonstrations) Mr. Rosen, on the other hand, would give

money to “professional advisors” who will
put up the usual passive resistance against
administration This outlook is a continuation of the
“philosophy” that students gain more through cooperation
than protest
student

probably

But let’s look at the facts. We are losing our 4-credit
classes; we are losing our SU alternatives, University class
sizes are increasing and new fees are being added to our bill
every year We didn’t seem to get too much cooperating
with administration last year Mr Rosen and company said
that both Niman and Friedman were unviable candidates
for election but as l have already stated 1 feel that they
were both eccellenl and dedicated candidates.
Now let me analyze Mr. Rosen’s head and see where
his reality is at because he said that Comtades Niman and
Friedman were unrealistic. Let’s remember that those that
control the media control the masses. Let’s see where Jay
Rosen’s name first appeared in The Spectrum It was back
in September of ’76 (a dark moment in UB history) when
the “Liberal" defender of student rights, Jay Rosen,
attacked Prof Fd (misspealt by Rosen as Flwin) Powell as
“undermining the legitimacy of the state.” He went on to
cite Powell’s socialist ties as a reason for demanding
Powell’s dismissal from the University. He also attacked
Powell for letting a College F spokesman speak and
“recruit” students Let’s see The Spectrum reprint Rosen’s
letter now In that letter and in succeeding articles Rosen
consistantly showed little open-mindedness to new ideas
and a very limited sense of “reality .” This seems to me to
be very dangerous for an editor of a newspaper
So what is to be done? In my opinion SA must be
decentralized into a class or some other collective
organization All students must have equal input into SA
SA can only work when its members care about it, feel for
it and are willing to sacrifice for it Students together and
only together can form change. And what do I mean by
change? 1 mean a school where ideas would be openly
discussed and where education is for all A school where
students can live together uncompetitive and truly free and
uninhibited These are the ideas which fid Powell stands
for and 1 hope all people would stand for
Right on!

Due process
The controversy arose when
the
elections were originally
scheduled to be held concurrent

with the undergraduate Student
Association elections. A protest
that has yet to be produced,
contended
that
SA
allegedly
agreed that holding the elections
at a time when undergraduates
were voting was unfair to graduate
students interested in running for
office. As a result, the elections,
originally planned for March 1, 2
and 3 were postponed.
In response to this change in
dates, graduate student Michael
Pierce filed an official protest
contending he was denied “due
process of law.” Noting that no
official notification of change was
presented, Pierce said he does not
know who required the changing
of the dates. He addressed a letter

�Softball Royals open today
by Joy

Tennis Bulls start
Albany
new season
by Robert Basil
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The tennis Bulls will swing into action today at the SUNY tennis
championships at Albany, beginning their spring schedule. The Bulls
will enter the championships with only five formal practices under
their belts due to the Faster vacation and the rotten weather here Still,
coach Tom LaPenna thinks the team will perform well “We have a lot
of good fighters on this team.”
With the exception of fifth singles man Dave Meyers, the entire
varsity squad from the last season is returning. In the fall, the Bulls
played superbly, winning eight of ten matches. This spring, the Bulls
will be competing against only four teams: Cornell, Colgate, Albany
and Binghamton. All four, though, have excellent tennis programs and
promise to give UB quite a battle. “We will be doing very well if we go
2-2,” said LaPenna.
Leading the team in first singles will be freshman prodigy, Todd
Miller, who finished last season with a 9-2 record. Strong, fast and
wirey, Miller hammers, smashes and lobs consistent winners past his
opponents. “Todd is in a class by himself here,” said LaPenna. Miller is
also UB’s top chance to make the Division III Nationals.
No practice
After Miller, UB

is led by team captain Steve Blumberg and Ted
Baughn in the next two spots. Filling out the rest of the team are Jay
Kiman, Orin Augustini, Larry Blieberg, Kevin Donavon and Rick Dash.
The players have not had the best conditions under which to
prepare for a rigorous season. Practice in the Bubble during the winter
lay-off was cancelled because of the multitude of other activities held
there. And even when the outside courts were rid of snow, the

temperatures were not too mild and

the winds beat the balls about
sure I’d have no problem convincing these guys

Joked LaPenna, “I’m
logo down to Florida over Faster vacation!”
Still, the Bulls look as if they are in good shape and have been
putting away grueling drills and distance runs this past week. College
tennis is one of the most strenuous sports, requiring the players to go
all out in a full singles match and then come back to play doubles.

Long-lasting Bulls
Roday, the Bulls will have to go twice as far: four matches a
player. Since the SUNY championships consist of three teams, each
Bull will have to endure a singles and doubles match against one team,
and with less than a few hours rest, come back to do it all over again.
The Bulls are strong in the first few spots in singles, yet the
prospect is not quite as certain for the doubles squads. Captain
|Blumberg traces the chances for success this season to the fourth, fifth
and sixth singles spots, rioting that they have improved.
Prior UB tennis teams hate been characterized by their puissant
perseverence, defeating impressive opponents by virtue of their
superior handling of tense competition. This season promises much of
the exciting same. According to LaPenna, the UB team will win on
“sheer guts.”

Dremuk claims SA budget deficit was avoidable
by David Levy
Campus Editor

Director of Admissions and
Records (A&amp;R) Richard Dremuk
said Friday that if Student
Association (SA) officials had
contacted him last spring he
would have advised them that the
enrollment projections which are
apparently responsible for the
current $47,000 SA budget deficit
were overestimated.
Dremuk claimed that neither
he nor anyone in his office could
remember SA officials even
contracting A&amp;R for this year’s
enrollment estimates. “SA usually
contacts me,” Dremuk said.
The 13,100 figure used by SA
last year is the same estimate on
which the 1976-77 budget was

semester, the deficit was whittled
down to $47,000. Seiden said that
the present SA administration is
“Overreacting” to the budget

based. Former SA Treasurer Neil
Seiden, who prepared the 1977-78
he “doesn’t
budget, said
remember how the information
(enrollment figures) got to me.”
Seiden nevertheless felt
the
drafted is a
budget he
“completely workable on

crisis and lacks the necessary
“true experience” to handle the
deficit.

”

Speaking figures
Anticipated revenue f igures are

arrived

at

by

multiplying

projected full-time enrollments by
$67, the current mandatory fee.

The budget is readied under the
assumption that all anticipated
revenue will be received. Thus,
when fall enrollment fell about
940 students hort of SA’s 13,100
projection, anticipated revenues
had to be scaled down by about
$63,000.

Co-op officials last week that the

Vincent Bugliosi

Manson prosecutor
to speak at Squire
Vincent Bugliosi, Chief Prosecutor of the Charles Manson murder
triaj and author of the best seller Heller Skelter: The True Story of the
Manson Murders, will speak in the Fillmore Room on Wednesday, April
19, at 8 pm Admission is free.
BugBosi is considered to be one of the most
prosecutors in Los Angeles criminal courts. He compiled a record of
105 criminal convictions in 106 felony jury trials prior to the Manson
case. He is currently working to re-open the files on Robert Kennedy’«
assassination based on new evidence which, he feels,*- points to Sirhan
Sirhan’s frame-up and the existence of a "second Assassin.”
Bugliosi’s career as a presecutor has been so spectacular that his
work has served as a model fofthe television series, TheD.A.
The attorney will reveal to the audience the fascinating and often
misunderstood facts about the Manson family’s background, its bizarre
philosophy, and how different types of people from class president to
child molester came to believe that Charles Manson was Jesus Christ. In
a spellbinding run-down of the varied techniques Manson used to keep
the family together, Bugliosi attempts to answer the most baffling

Off Campus Housing
makes things easier

—Malllck

Moving Off Campus Workshop was well received by students last week
Slide show and panel of local housing experts were featured

The Off-Campus Housing Office (OCH) report that about 100
students a day have been coming up to 343 Squire Hall in search of
off-campus quarters.
At the Moving Off-Campus workshops last Wednesday and
Thursday nights, housing lists of 110 available housing units were
distributed to some 300 students. By Friday, the majority of them had
been rented.
The mad scramble is on.
“For every one apartment listing, there are 10 people looking,”
said Sub Board Publications Division Director Mike Volan. “We have
about 150 units now, and the nice places are starting to come in.”
Beginning next week, a 24-hour service will enable students to
drop off a housing request form and return the next day to receive a
personalized list of availabilities. Presently, OCH visitors must thumb
through a file of index cards in order to obtain listings.
OCH employees are telephoning all students who live off campus
this week in order to get more listings and determine exactly what is
available. Names and phone numbers were obtained from Admissions
and Records but may not be accurate if students have not updated
their data forms. Students who are seeking to fill apartments, houses
and rooms should make public their listing by calling the Off Campus
Housing office at 831-5534.

Some give-away

mentioned by the companies.
The University Union
Acitivites Board agreed to provide
a stage and a sound system for the
extravaganza. Further support was
offered by the, Buffalo State
Collge SA which will handle all of
the necessary advertising and

with the fact that this is an

produce an appearance by the
politicians, said Rubin.
Rubin outlined a tenatiye
format for the all-day party which
includes live music, acitivites
booths, athletic exhibitions, and
an evening show, consisting of
various stage acts. Earlier there
had been talk of booking a
big-name band for the evening
show butRubin stated that this
wasn’t possible “due to financial
reasons.”
The number of bands to be

due to the uncertain amount of
funding for the festival. However,
several local bands as well as
students bands have expressed an
interest in playing, and some
indicated that they would provide
their services at no charge.
Planners of the event are
hoping to make Springfest amemorable experience. AS
Springfest Committee member
Ron Klein put it, “If it goes as
planned, it should help Jo greatly
decrease student apathy.” Many
feel that this is a great starting
point to attack what they termed
the ever increasing boredom at

the meeting said he felt that “the

middle-level academic administrative positions.
The five search committees for Dean of the
Faculty of Natural Sciences and Mathematics
(FNSM);
Dean of Social
Sciences and
Administration; Associate Vice President for
Academic Affairs;
Dean of Undergraduate
education; Dean of the Division of Continuing
Education (DCE); and Dean for the Colleges all
expressed optimism in their committee’s progress to
date.

Vice President for Academic Affairs Ronald
Bunn, who commissioned the committees and will
oversee their progress, commented, “The committees
are still in the process of screening candidates for the
available positions, and they are trying to determine
which candidates they will invite to the University
for personal interviews. Considering the fact that the
searches started only two months ago we are
proceeding well and are basically adhering to the
schedule we have set.”
External applicants
Professor of Biochemistry Alexander Brownie,
Chairman of The Faculty of Natural Sciences and
Mathematics (FNSM) search committee also
indicated good progress in his committee’s efforts.
“Now we have narrowed our list to four candidates
external to the University,” he said, “and beginning
next week the candidates will be coming here for
interviews.” The SUNY (internal) candidates for this
position hae not been chosen. Initial evaluations
have been made and all possible candidates that have
surfaced are still under consideration.
Brownie said of the applicants, “We think that
they are of high quality and it was extremely
impressive to us that of all the candidates chosen for
interviews, not one refused to come here for an
interview

The search to replace Dean of the Colleges
Irving Spitzberg is going well according to its
Chairman Dean of Architecture and Design Harold
Cohen. He said, “We have received close to 50
applicants and cut down the field to the lop ten. The
ten' have been polled, and we are asking these
candidates for three pieces of literature which will
best represent them and for six letters of reference."

Following the receipt of all this information the
Committee will further narrow the field bid invite
these candidates to the University for an interview.
Cohen is “impressed and pleased with the first ten
candidates” and noted that “not one of the
candidates is from the University and only one is
from the SUNY system.”
Law School Dean Thomas Headrick, who is
chairing the search for the new Dean of Social
Sciences, echoed the feelings of his colleagues when
he said, “We are moving pretty well.” The field has
been narrowed to ten candidates, half of which are
internal to the University. Headrick also commented.
“It is hard to say when the process will come to a
conclusion, but we are meeting once or twice a week
trying to decide

The search for the newly created position of an
Associate Vice President for Academic Affairs
(VPAA) and Dean of Undergraduate Education
(DUE) is at present looking over 70 applicants of
which 30 have presented completed applications.
Professor of History and Committee Chairmen
Clinton Yearly stated, “We have pruning to do and it
will be sometime down the line before we have a
completed list of candidates to submit for further
considerations.” Yearly did comment that “a vast
majority of the applicants are outsiders to the
University.”

Crucial to Academics
The final leadership search is for the Deanship
position of Division of Continuing Education. This
committee is headed by Associate Dean of the
School of Management Howard Foster who
acknowledged that his committee has received about
120 applicants and is whittling the list down. Once
this is done candidates will be invited tb campus for
interviews. Foster commented that “10-12 of the
applicants are internal to the University and that the
committee will not make the set deadline of April
17th.”

All these positions are crucial to the University
and according to Bunn, “Deans are especially
responsible of ensuring the quality of the faculty’s
instructional and research activities, fostering the
development of high quality inter-departmental and
inter-faculty graduate and undergraduate programs
and advising the Vice President for Academic Affairs
in the effective use of resources within the faculty .”

A cooperative

Housing mismatch

The North Buffalo Food Co-op is in trouble and no
definite immediate solution to its proolems exists. The
Corop, the alternative to the institutional plastic packaged
Super Duperitis, the fast junk of that malnutrition center,
Wilson Farms, and Food Service mush, must move.
Relocation must be to another storefront in the immediate
neighborhood, within a one or two or three block radius.
The Co-op belongs in this neighborhood
here
where
students and local residents shop it regularly, where its
natural social and financial base lies.
If it were to move, the Co-op's rate of sales would
depreciate, as its most captive audience would be removed
from the immediate vicinity, and its regular customers would
also suffer, being forced to do all local, around-the-corner
food shopping at Wilson's Farms. Their teeth would begin to
fall out and their brains would surely deteriorate at a faster
pace than ever. i v
The currently vacant building riext' to the. Marine
Midland Bank on Main Street is the optimum storefront into
which the Co-op could settle and also the most difficult to
deal with financially. So the call for .money has been
sounded. But how will it be rafted, who will raise it and
\tohichbrganizations should feel most responsible.
Informed rumor has it that the Lexington Food Co-op
will financially back a loan enabling the North Bufffalo
Co-op to buy the vacant building next to the bank. How
great the loan will be has not been disclosed, nor have the
restrictions upon it.
Because so, many students shop it, SA or Sub Board
should offer the Co-op some backing, insuring it another
loan, if needed; or donating material or resources, or people
power. Although opinions on the nature of any relationship
between student government and the Co-op no doubt differ
widely, contact between officials of both parties should be
established quickly.
The flow of information, if publicized and utilized
correctly, would encourage more students, particularly
dormitory residents not on contract, to take their business
to the Co-op, and might help SA officials to deal more
effectively with Food Service. The contact would, in any
case, serve as a link between the University and the
surrounding community, and it would be initiated entirely
by students.
Co-op officials must, for their part, learn to deal on
straight terms with a straight business world. One suggestion
is to find a business management major interested in and
sympathetic to socialist oriented business ventures that is,
ones not based on profit making ventures, interested in
community service and functioning within a decentralized
bureaucracy and hire him or her as business manager. That
student could probably receive course credit from the
management department for his cooperative activites.
The North Buffalo Food Co-op is not an isolated grocery
store. lt is a link in a cooperative chain that operates
effectively across the country. Support it. Write letters to SA
officials. Volunteer time to assist in the move when the time
comes.

�FEEDBACK

Musk lust
To the Editor
Over vacation I had the opportunity to read
World Hunger and Moral Obligation an anthology I
strongly recommend. The last article in this
is
by
collection
James Rachels,
entitled
“Vegetarianism and ‘The Other Weight Problem’.”
At this time I am not going to argue that the
problem of world hunger is a moral dilemma
confronting every individual, even though it is. Nor
am I going to argue that we all should be vegetarians,
although I do believe we should. Rather 1 simply
want to share with all of you an example of Rachels’
regarding the treatment of animals as means to an
end, the end being man’s vanity.
Most of us use colognes or perfumes and are
familiar with Musk oil. But how many of us know
where the oil comes from? It comes from Civet cats,
who are “trapped and placed in small cages inside
darkened sheds, where the temperature is kept up to
1 10 degrees by fires They are confined in this way
,

until they finally die. What justifies this treatment?”
The Civet cat produces Musk oil, Which it scraped
from their genitals once a day for as long as they can
survive. These cats are put to death, tortured simply
for our whims and vanities.
There are two points to this example. First, do
not buy perfumes or colognes that use Musk. Let
your friends and
family know how Musk is
produced. Talk to your local store owners, explain
to them how Musk is produced and ask them to stop
buying from companies that use Musk. Secondly,
once we become aware of an injustice it becomes
immoral to assist in any way the continuance of that
practice But we must first become aware. And this
too, is a moral responsibility. Read. Ask questions.
Talk to each other Through communication and
cooperation we can bring about constructive change

This spring the U S. Supreme Court will render a
decision on the Bakke case
one of the most
important cases in the last 25 years on the question
of racial equality. The Bakke decision, which is
based on the absurd and racist idea of reverse
discrimination is a serious attack on the rights of
minorities and women to jobs and education. If the
Bakke decision is not overturned by the court, all
affirmative action programs will be threatened with
elimination. We need every student, faculty member

Separate holiday
To the Editor

I’m kind of annoyed at what our Springfest has
evolved into I was under themisapprehension that
our Springfest was to be modeled after Brockport’s
Spring-In, which is still being asserted by those
planning it. The fact is that Brockport’s Spring-ln is
held on a WEEKDAY (school is cancelled), and that
is what’s so special about it! 1 don’t think I’d come
to the party (especially at Amherst) if it’s held on a
weekend. That has no special appeal to me. There’s
nothing great about partying on a Saturday; I do
that anyway! We should have a separate holiday for
our Springfest.

As I was walking through Squire Hall on
Wednesday, April 5, 1978,1 noticed the sign "WIRC
Needs Your Help. WIRC can Become An Important
Part of U.B. With Your Support.” I am writing this
letter in total agreement and support of WIRC. I feel
that with the help of the students at U.B., WIRC will
be able to expand to all three campuses.
Why haven’t they been given enough funds?

They are more than willing to co-sponsor events in
an effort to receive money. On March 22, 1978 I
visited the W1RC (station) office in Goodyear Hall.
They are lacking a lot of equipment and space. It is
the duty of every student to sign the petitions going
around U.B. We need W1RC if we want to continue
to be an organized and well informed student body

To the Editor

It is our goal on campus here at UB to bring the
case of Larry Bergus before the American public.
Larry was arrested on charges of possession on half a
pound of pot which was obviously planted in his car
by State of Alabama troopers who were out to get
him. Larry as the head of a major newspaper The
Mobile Express had exposed numerous conspiracies

in the troopers’ organization. His study concluded
that the troopers resemble storm troopers more than
people entrusted to protect society.
It is time for the people to speak. If the
oppressors of the people can win out this time you
may be their next victim.

I am writing in regard to Ms. Sunni
Kazukiewicz’s April 5th letter about my article on
returning students. I realize that the veteran I wrote
about was hardly average. I was using an extreme
example to make a point. Veterans have done a great
service to the country and I do not begrudge them
what they receive. The point of my comment was
that a veteran who receives a couple hundred dollars
per month to go to school is that much better off

than a returning student who does not receive this
aid, such as yours truly. In fact, a strong motive for
enlisting are those same benefits which Ms
Kazukiewicz downplays. They have enabled many
people to get a college education who could not have
received one any other way. While veterans are not
necessarily rolling in the dough, they could have it a
lot worse.

A gallup poll taken in 1973,
the year of the biggest wave of
UFO sightings, revealed that 54
percent of the American people
believed that UFO’s are not
merely atmospheric illusions.

the subject of UFO's. Fifty-three

thought it was an airplane, but the
object had no flashing lights and it
was higher in the sky than a plane
would be normally. It was going
at a very fast rate of speed, then it
stopped and changed direction.
When I called for my neighbor, it

Pot finds its place
among legal drugs
New Mexico recently became the first state to legalize marijuana
for therapeutic use.
In late February the state house and senate overwhelmingly passed
the Controlled Substances Therapeutic Research Act. The bill
establishes a state review board to certify patients who wish to use
marijuana “to alleviate the nausea and ill effects of cancer
chemotherapy . and the ill effects ot glaucoma.” Those certified can
receive pot seized as contraband by the State Police, reports the
current Rolling Stone.
In addition to aiding chemotherapy and glaucoma patients, there is
evidence that pot may assist in the treatment of asthma, epilepsy,
multiple sclerosis, rheumatism and depression. The New Mexico law
stipulates that such “other disease groups” may be eligible for research
pot from the government if physicians request it
Following New Mexico’s lead, other states are beginning to open
up possibilities for research into the therapeutic effects of marijuana.
In Hawaii, state senator Anson Chong has Introduced legislation
which would legalize the use of pot by patients suf fering from asthma,
glaucoma and the side effects of chemotherapy The Hawaiian bill
would clear the way for use of homegrown marijuana, and is still in

committee.

Meanwhile, in California, a Superior Court Judge in Imperial
County caused a furor recently when he issued an order on January
~3rd icquiring the sheriff to supply a 21-year-old chemotherapy
patient with “as much marijuana as he wanted" after the
patient
refused further treatments due to the side effects.
It seems absurd to me that anyone could fault this type of
thing,” said Judge Don Work. “Everyone knows someone who has
cancer nowadays, and marijuana is clearly beneficial. I
intend to assist
in the passage of legislation in California similar to that which Lynn
Pierson sponsored.”
Lynn Pierson is the individual most directly
responsible for the
passage of the New Mexico law. In 1975, he was told
he had two
months to live and began chemotherapy
treatments. Becoming
violently ill, he found marijuana alleviated his
symptoms. Soon his
cancer went into remission, and Pierson successfully
lobbied the state
legislature to change the laws.

Assistant Sports Editor

Five teams will battle for the top spot in the
National League East while two teams square off for
the Western pennant as the senior circuit begins its
103rd season. Nine of the twelve teams have made
major personnel changes since last season.
The East; The stand-pat Phillies are a solid
threat to again win 100 games. The Phils have it all
power, speed, defense, a deep bullpen and a fine
bench. Only if the starting pitching falters can the
Phillies be caught.
The Cardinals’ young pitching staff must live up
to its potential for the Cards to make a serious bid.
Righty John Denny and lefty Pete Falcone are the
key men. Newly acquired Jerry Morales will help
balance the offense. The Cards also have an excellent
young infield and a good bullpen. Al Hrabosky
won’t be missed.
The defection of relievers Rich I Gossage and
Terry Forster will weaken Pittsburgh tremendously.
The Bucs added Bert Blyleven to their starting crew
to relieve the load on the bullpen, and they hope
their hitting and speed can offset their weak defense
and bullpen. Veterans Kent Tekulve and Grant
Jackson will try to supply the relief, along with free
agent Jim Bibby.

Dave Kingman will be chasing Hack Wilson and
Roger Maris this season and his mighty bat could
carry the Cubs 9 long way. Chicago’s starting
pitching looks thin though, and ace reliever Bruce

Sutter will have {o be very good
catcher Dave Rader can hit, but his weak arm could
cause problems.
Montreal really bolstered its starting four with
the addition of lefties Ross Grimsley and Rudy May.
The Expos are a very young team with lots of talent
but third base remains a problem with Larry Parrish
stationed there, and the bullpen is atrocious now
that Don Stanhouse is gone (in the May deal).
The Mets will be splendidly mediocre in 1978, a
vast improvement over last year when they were
pathetic. Only two starters
John Stearns and Lee
Mazzilli

prayer. At least the Mets will be more exciting than
they have been the past few years.
The West; After a one year hiatus, the Reds are
poised to return to post season play. Sparky
Anderson’s once awful pitching staff now includes
Tom Seaver, Bill Bonham, Paul Moskau and Dave
Tomlin. The Reds eight man lineup is among
baseball’s best.

A
answer to their inconsistent bullpen
comeback by Rick Monday could provide a lift.
However, nine Dodgers had their finest seasons in

The Astros have the best team in their history
but the competition in th$ West is too tough.
Houston has the finest young pitching staff in

San Francisco’s infield is very shakey with Bill
Madlock at second and Johnnie Lemaster at short.
The defense in general is inadequate. Vida Blue joins
a pitching staff that could be very good if John
Montefusco has a good year.
The Padres too, have infield problems. Theirs is
one of the worst in the majors; the four starters have
little or no major league experience at their
respective positions. The pitching staff is led by two
unknown quantities: aging Gaylord Perry and sore
armed Randy Jones.
Atlanta isn’t rebuilding; they’re building from
nothing. The pitching and defense are pitiful Bright
spots are outfielders Jeff Burroughs and Barry
Bonnell, catcher-first baseman Dale Murphy, catcher
Biff Pocoroba and ageless knuckleballer Phil Niekro.
New manager Bobby Cox has quite a job facing him.

said. Gary Runkel, guidance counselor at Amherst
Central High School in Snyder, added, “Parents
cannot see their children’s files without their
permission after their children are 18 years old.”
Runkel also said that personal files are open to the
police primarily for the purpose of determining if a
student was in attendance at school during the
occurrence of a particular crime. Arrest records are
not kept in the school academic file.
Runkel said that although high school academic
records ontain considerably more information than
those retained in college, students are generally
disappointed that the files are not more “juicy.” He
told of one student who had expected to spend a
whole afternoon reviewing his file and thgught that
he would need his lawyer. Many students expect to
find discrepancies or dertogatory remarks made by
their grammar school teachers. Again, even high
schools do not carry a cummulative file on 'their

�Cater’s urban aid
plan to remedy cities

Teller’s forced resignation
veiled by ‘re-assignment’

by Bobbie Demme and Joel DiMardo
After more than a year of promises and planning, the Carter
Administration has presented its new urban aid plan for public
inspection. The keynote of the plan is partnership; the plan proposes
that state, federal, local and private entities pool their efforts to aid in
the recovery of all cities. It also places no specific blame for the present
plight of the cities but merely states that their problems exist and that
steps must be taken to remedy them.
The proposed program would start with a $700 million price tag
for this year and spend anbther $6.8 million between now and 1983.
Most of this money would be used to expand already existing urban aid
programs, along with allowances for the development of new ideas to
help the cities. A variety of programs are proposed that are designed to
increase the number of groups involved in city rehabilitation.
To stimulate .the private sector, for instance, the program seeks to
establish a National Development Bank that could guarantee up to $11
million in development loans to building and loan associations in
economically depressed urban and rural areas. Such a bank would be
“semi-autonomous,” being allowed to invest its funds in those areas it
considers to be the best risk as well as most financially in need of new
housing and commercial construction. In addition, Carter plans to ask
Congress to give an additional $175 million each to the Commerce
Department’s Economic Development Administration and the Urban
Development Action Grant program of the Housing and Urban
Develppment Administration.
Business is to be further stimulated by an increase of five percent
the
investment tax credit This credit would allow businesses to
in
deduct
15 percent of their investment tax if they invest in
economically depressed areas.
The key role of the federal government in Carter’s proposal would
be one of non-interference. All federal agencies would be required to
submit an economic impact statement before beginning any new
programs. Such a statement would be used to determine if a proposed
program would economically injure already depressed areas. To further
help the cities, Carter proposes providing $1 billion to restore and
maintain those city facilities most often afflicted by age: fire
departments, city halls and park maintenance systems. Fifty percent of
those people employed in such rehabilitation projects must come from
the so-called “hard-core” unemployed.
States would receive at least $200 million in funds by suggesting
innovative ways to help their cities and providing reasonable evidence
that those plans are workable.
Other aspects of the plan include creating new loopholes in the Air
Quality Act allowing industries to, in effect, break the law if their air
pollution rates do not worsen in the course of a year. Employing at
least two percent of the immediate local working population also
constitutes a loophole in the pollution control act. Offices used for
federal business would be forced to move to urban centers where they
would be most accessible to the people who use them most often.
Welfare offices .would be relocated from the suburbs to the inner city,
though many people working in such offices are suburban residents.
The city of Buffalo stands to gain a great deal from the program.
Plans for its new rapid transit system and enclosed downtown mall may
well serve as huge sponges sopping up federal monies for Buffalo
because of a clause in Carter’s proposal allocating $200 million per year
for mass transit capital grants. These grants would be used to build new
transit facilities and pedestrian transit malls and support joint public
and private development around transit stations through site and utility
preparation.
Another feature of the policy that could conceivably pump more
funds into this area is the emphasis on help for the problems of older,
declining areas such as Buffalo’s central city. Rehabilitation efforts that
have seen the rescue of the Prudential building from demolition and
the complete resotration of Shea’s Buffalo into a functional landmark
may be continued effectively under this program. In a Courier Express
report, Buffalo Commissioner of Community Development William
Donahue agreed, saying, “This city needs a big shot of that public
works money to renew the inner city.”

Unfortunately, the key point of the program: cooperation, may
not work here. The history of cooperation between business, city and
state officials and federal governments is spotty and tenuous at best.
Already the city is using most of its federal CETA money simply to
maintain basic operations. 32.8 percent of all Buffalo city workers are
in fact CFTA employees.
Few offices exist that are designed solely to promote open lines of
communication between businesses. In fact, most of the area’s biggest
employers don’t even live in Buffalo, making such an office out of the

Open budget hearings begin
The Student Association (SA) Financial

the 1978-79 budget. In an attempt to instill fairness
and equity in the proceedings, the Committee is
holding open hearings for the first time in years. To
date the hearings have proceeded smoothly.
The Financial Committee consists of SA
Treasurer Fred Wawrzonek, and three representatives
from each of the SA Task Forces Student Affairs,
Academic Affairs and Student Activities and
Services. The Committee will isten to bugdet
requests from April 4-13. Following the hearings, the
Committee will finalize its recommendations, which
will then be reviewed by the SA Executive
Committee and finally by the Financial Assembly.
The Committee has no specific criteria for

A review of summer job opportunities for college students at
Ranches, National Parks and recreation areas for this
coming summer looks good, according to Opportunity Research
Job opportunity analysts indicate that excellent opportunities
exist throughout the nation for this coming summer. As usual
good jobs will be very competitive, however, those applying early
will have a good chance.
National Parks and the supporting industries surrounding
them will probably be the best potential again this year. Many new
recreation facilities have started this past year in areas close to
National Parks.
College students should be advised that many good jobs go
unfilled as a result of general apathy and lack of interest on the
part of many students. Some good opportunities go unfilled
because students don’t bother to apply.
Students and graduates who are sincerely interested in
receiving assistance on locating summer jobs may send a

�Buffalo public school hope
for aid to erase deficit: Hoyt
through the Council.” To get this proposal passed,
Griffin needs the Common Council’s consent as part
of a home-rule message that would be sent to the
State Legislature for final approval.
A home-rule message is required for any change
in the city government’s structure such as is
proposed by the Griffm-Whelan plan. The proposal
must be presented to the Common Council and
ratified by at least eight councilmen and the mayor.
If the mayor does not ratify the proposal, at least
ten councilmen must approve it. Marcy estimated
that only “three at the most” would vote for such a
home-rule message.
Arthur concurred with the estimate but said
that a compromise proposal calling for the state to
appoint a fiscal overseer to monitor the school
board’s spending could win Council Approval with
little difficulty.
The school board has expressed some support
for the plan, but Whelan remains opposed to any but
his own proposal. To support his arguments, Whelan
released a letter written by Perry Hall, Vice President
of Morgan Guaranty Trust Co., the city’s financial
advisor.

by Joel DiMarco
Staff Reporter

Spectrum

State Assemblyman William B. Hoyt announced
last week that Buffalo public schools are expected to
receive an increase of $10,245 million from the state
for the upcoming fiscal year. Such an increase could
entirely erase the $8 million budget deficit incurred
by the Board of Education this year, and still leave
enough money to fund improvements in the school
system’s desegregation plan begun this year.
Hoyt announced the figures after a lengthy
bargaining session last Wednesday that saw state
legislators trying to work out a compromise
state-aid-to-education formula. Formula Aid has
been a major stumbling block in the Legislature’s
efforts to come to a consensus in their annual budget
review. Final legislative approval is still pending, but
a source in Albany said; “It’s a good compromise, a
sure thing to pass the Assembly and very likely to
get through the Senate since this is a [gubernatorial]
election year.”
The compromise would give the schools a $4.1
million increase in basic Formula Aid; a Quality
Incentive Aid increase of $3 million; a Pupil
Transportation Aid increase of $2.42 million and
smaller aid increases in such areas as Textbook Aid,
Special Aid’s for the Severely Disabled and the
Learning Disabled totaling $475 thousand. Hoyt said
that the figures are based on “highly reliable
estimates,” rather than precise amounts.

Pulling purse-strings
This Legislative commitment would come as
welcome relief to the Buffalo School Board which
has been locked in conflict with Mayor James Griffin
and Comptroller Robert Whelan, who have proposed
to make the Board subject to fiscal restriction by
Whelan. The Mayor had gained the upper hand in the
fight when he went to Albany before Easter and
worked out a deal with Governor Hugh Carey in
which the state would advance $5.3 million in school
transportation aid, provided constraints were placed
on future school board spending.
“The Governor emphasized his determination to
see that nothing jeopardizes the right of Buffalo
school children to receive their full academic year of
instruction,” said a Carey spokesman.
Hoyt, a former teacher, has repeatedly
expressed support for the Board saying, “The person
who controls the Board of Education purse-strings,
controls education policy making.” Both he and the
Board were pleased by the Governor’s commitment,
but feared that Ggffin had used the trip to drum up
support for his plan. “If the Griffin-Whelan plan is
passed,” declared School Board President Florence
Baugh, “I and most of the other members of the
Board will resign.”
Home-rule
However, the Common Council’s Democratic
Majority Leader George Arthur and the Council’s
lone Republican William Marcy Jr. said, “There is no
way that the Griffin-Whelan proposal can get

BLUEBIRD BLUES; The University is facing another shortage of
money in it's 'Bird budget.

Bus service budget is
expected to run short
The University bus service budget is expected to run $200,000
250,000 short of the amount necessary to operate for the fiscal year
1978-79, according to Vice President for Finance and Management
Fydward Doty. The State Division of the Budget (DOB) has allocated
about $600,000 while the University projects that its operating
expenses for bus service this year will be approximately $800,000, an
increase of about 30 percent over last year’s expenditure. A
Supplemental Budget request of $280,000 has been made by this
University, but whether the request will be approved will not be known
—

Fiscal irresponsibility
In his letter, Hall maintained that Buffalo’s
three year “policy of fiscal discipline” has been
marred solely by the “financial irresponsibility” of
the school board. He further claimed that any slate
overseer plan “is apt to be perceived by the credit
markets as an indication of the inability of the city
to manage its own financial affairs.” Continuation of
the board’s “irresponsibility” could only hurt the
city’s ability to sell municipal bonds, the letter
concluded.
Whelan also claims support for his plan from
State Senate Majority Leader Warren Anderson and
Assembly Speaker Stanley Steingut. The comptroller
contends that the board had committed malfeasance,
a criminal act, when it passed a budget for this year
that spent $8 million more than the Council had
allocated the school system.

until May 1 at the earliest.
This is the second consecutive year that the bus service budget will
suffer from a shortage. Last year a shortage of $200,000 for the bus
service budget forced the University to allocate money from its
“internal funds.” According to Doty, the University will probably have
to do the same thing again this year. He also predicted that Buffalo
would encounter more difficulty this year in meeting the shortage than
it did last year. “We use funds allocated for other purposes and never
spent,” Doty said. “I think a lot of things will have to give a little in
order to meet the shortage.”
Doty predicted that this growing pattern of budget shortages will
continue as long as attempts to balance the State budget require the
king of “item by item” cutting that has been taking place in Albany.
Doty and other Administration officials are quick to emphasize that
“top priority” is being given to the busing service and add that
problems of financing will not be allowed to alter the present bus
service.
“Acting Director of Campus Busing Roger McGill said that the
University Administration has assured him that the necessary funds will
be found and supplied to him in any event. “The Administration,” he
said, “realizes the absolute necessity of maintaining the bus service at
its present leveL” McGill denied that any curtailment of service has
occurred or is being contemplated. “In fact,” he said, “the
Administration urged me to make an increase in the number of buses
running last fall in order to meet the needs of the students more fully.”
The projected $800,000 figure includes the costs for weekend and
evening buses this summer. The increasing costs of University’s
contract with the Blue Bird Bus Company is one reason for the increase
in the bus service budget. Nevertheless, Doty foresees no change in
companies for next year. Blue Bird was awarded the contract in a
publicly-opened sealed bid because its bid was the lowest. Under the
three-year binding agreement with Blue Bird, the cost of a transit bus
will go from $17.90 per hour to $21.25 per hour in 1979. At the same
time, the cost of a yellow school bus will increase from $15.95 to
$ 18.90 per hour in 1979.
McGill also said there would be no cutback in service to Ridge Lea
on weekends. Presently two buses run on the weekends between the
Main Street and Amherst Campuses with stops at the Ridge- Lea
Campus and the Boulevard Mall.

No interference
Baugh denied this charge arguing, “If we had
stayed within the Council budget, we would have
violated Judge Curtin’s desegregation order which
clearly states that the quality of education may not
be impaired by desegregation. We developed the best
plan we could at the lowest possible cost, as was our
responsibility to the city and to the children,” she
explained.
Judge John Curtin of the Federal Circuit Court
had ordered the school desegregation in 1976 and
has supervised it ever since. This past Wednesday,
Judge Curtin ordered all those involved in the
desegregation controversy to appear before the court
for a re-evaluation of the city’s desegregation plan.
The outcome is not yet known but it is known that
Curtin will not tolerate any interference by Whelan
or Griffin if the plan is found to be progressing
satisfactorily.

House hunting
|

V

Now is the time when many students begin looking for
houses in which to spend the summer and/or next year. For
soma, the process is simple it ends where it begins. A big
(

—

comfortable house close to campus and close to food and
laundromats and even close to a tree or two is passed on
from one friend to the next. The students are content
because the arrangement took no time and no knocking on
strange doors and no stumbling through unfamiliar
bedrooms and no transporting dilapidated refrigerators and
no saying, "oh no, we're never going to find a house without
holes in the ceiling and massive oil slicks on the floors."
Well, while some students avoid these common hassles
and live happily ever after, others move into shacks with
motel walls, sagging dog-chewed furniture, leaky faucets, no
storm windows, and complete strangers lurking about.

Students live in such conditions because they search in vain
for weeks for a house or apartment and at the last second are
forced to move into exactly what they don't want.
Unhappy, frustrated living situations have very negative
effects on academics and social affairs. There are few worse
feelings than not wanting to return to one's home after a
hard night in the library, at the movies, in the laundromat, at
the bar or in heaven.

Well, NYPIRG has published a pamphlet detailing
trouble spots for those students who, once they think they
have found a house, run ipto the finer points of dealing with
an aggressive landlord, a complicated lease, and damage and
security claims. The pamphlet is not the answer to anything,
but could go a long way in aiding students to make the right
decisions (whatever they might be). Pick one up in 311
Squire.

In addition, the Off-Campus Housing Office, also on the
third floor of Squire, has a
of houses
available and of roommates wanted and the like. The lists are
reportedly not always up to date, but those looking for
houses should make the office their first stop. Just across the
hall is Group Legal Services which has long helped students
with dubious leases and slumlord landlords.
And, of course, just down the hall is The Spectrum, in
which the classified ad section should be filled with
roommates-wanted notices and hopefully some good houses

available.''

To the Editor

In four years at this University, I have witnessed
blazing incompetence in nearly every department
and branch of the University from the upper most

administrative offices to the various branches of the
student governments. In most cases, however, the
damages as a result of the careless errors or
thoughtless mistakes.of the parties involved have
been minor enough and in almost all cases reversible.
As an applicant for law school for the Fall
of
1978, there are certain procedures in the application
process
that require participation from the
University. One of these is the transcript service. It
was required that I have the school mail one copy of
my transcript to the Educational Testing Service
in
Princeton, New Jersey where that transcript was to
be evaluated and forwarded to the law schools to
which I have applied. I followed all the required
procedures and met all the projected deadlines
and
there was nothing more for me to do than to bring in
my transcript request form to Admissions
and
Records. This was done so I was therefore curious
when 1 began to receive post cards from the schools
stating that they had not yet received my
transcripts
from Princeton. I have just received a postcard from

Demoralized management

the H.T.S. stating that the transcript they received
from UB was for another student who in fact was
not even sending a transcript to F..T.S. The card
went on to explain that this would cause a delay in

processing my reports.
Simple calculations indicate that the error will
result in a three-week delay in transcripts being
received by the schools to which I have applied. This
means that at least a few of my schools I cannot be
considered in the first pool of applicants, may not be
considered in the second pool, and it is quite
possible that at several
schools, I will not be
considered at all. It is also important to note that the
student whose transcript was sent to K.T.S. will be
hurt be this as well ap it means that his transcript was
not sent where it should
have been. I do not intend
to let this pass lightly.
My only consolation in
this affair (beyond an
apology from an Admissions and Records secretary)
lies in the fact that after four years of attending a
college where incompetence
thrives as if it were a
virtue and thoughtlessness seems to indicate the
status quo, again my only consolation is that I

I would like to take the opportunity to thank
the five hundred (500) or so people who attended
the party in Porter Cafeteria on March 18th,
sponsored by Tau Kappa Epsilon Fraternity. The
success of the event can be attributed to two things:
first, the function was well attended, and second, the
people attending were interested in having a good
time rather than brawling. With the help of a Food
Service employee, the Brothers of TKE left the
room, after the seven hours and 13 kegs of
festivities, in better condition than it had been
earlier that evenings.
The outcome of this event, and hopes of similar
results for events in the future should serve to
convince the independent student the social value of

As a student at UB, 1 am wont to use the

going downstairs, I found the room locked. None of
the students working there could give me a reason
for this, so after much questioning of them as to
“who’s in charge here?” 1 finally called the chairman
of the Athletic Department, who told me in a rather
vindictive manner (I thought) that “students” had
been vandalizing the Universal machines by stealing
the keys, and to combat this, he was closing the

established recipe. Pigeons are an excellent substitute
for the “four and twenty blackbirds baked in a pie.”
You may need a little extra crust, however, due to

Once again, veterans suffer the brunt of media
publicity. A one-line statement, appearing on page 4
of the March 20th edition of The Spectrum in an
article entitled, “Problems Faced by Returning
Students,” doesn’t ring true. .Nonetheless we
received a bold print heading. I thought college
students were intelligent and aware, however, when
it comes to reporting, the only thing that matters is
the “spectacular.” Those same generalizations of the
media have proclaimed veterans degenerates and
psychotics. For the sake of anyone interested, that is
not the case. Similarly, the stated claim that veterans

Ethnic slurs
To the Editor

I am writing to express my outrage at the sexist
and anti-semitic article about the Jewish American
Princess (JAP) riot which was published in the April
Fool edition of The Spectrum. The article revolves
around a charicature of Jewish women students as
vain, self-centered, materialistic and dependent upon
wealthy jeweler fathers in Long island mansions.
Ethnic slurs about other groups are thrown in for
good, measure
police officer Thickowski, for
example, and McMary McMerntney with a shirt from
Two Guys and a bowling average of 179.
Humor based upon negative sterotyping of
minority groups, including women, is not only in
bad taste, it is destructive. It perpetuates and spreads
misconceptions that have caused enormous suffering
to members of minorities in the past and continue to
hurt them today. Whether the authors of the article
in question are Jewish or non-Jewish, female or male
is not important here; self hate can be as destructive
as any other kind of hate. Nor does the April Fool
context of the article excuse its content. Surely
there are other, legitimate subjects for humor and
—

satire at this University.
The article about rioting Jewish American
Princesses was not funny. It was an insult to the
Jewish women on this campus and to the entire
University Community.

During this past vacation, the trends in the
ordinary day-to-day marketing of rock and roll
records seems to have been noticeably different.
Department stores such as Korvette's in New
York (who advertise as having the world's largest
record department) have begun to carry

substantial New Wave selections. While none of
the major commercial chain operations (such as
Sam Goody's or Cavages) are carrying import
singles yet, they are stocking most American
album releases (that is, those on an American
label). Everything from the Ramones to the Sex
Pistols to Blondie and countless others are
available and visible to the ordinary music buyer.
Elvis Costello has q screaming sell out in Buffalo,
and the Jam packs in countless fans at the old
Anderson theatre, the Yiddish Theatre of the
twenties, on Second Avenue and Fourth Street.
It is now CBGB's Theatre, the second child of
Hilly Krystal, the first being a little underground
club of the same initials located on the Bowery.
During this vacation, some of the year's best
releases became available in the same quantity as
the year's most commercial. As many copies of

Music in The Spectrum is often limited. We will
continue to try our damndest to bring you
reviews and other helpful information about
these important artists. Buffalo has gained a
reputation as a haven for New Wave artists and
that is something to be proud of. Elvis Costello,
who couldn't get a reaction up in Brockport or
Albany, returns to Buffalo on April 25,
accompanied by Lowe and Mink DeVille (whose
Capitol album Cabretta was one of last year's
best). There is a tremendous amount happening
musically that needs recognition. Keep all eyes
and ears trained on word of these artists. The
music is damned good and loaded with an almost
disproportinate amount of talent and life. We will
do our job with the maximum effort, and hope
that as an audience, you do yours.

filling in gaps that usually require
a second guitarist. Behind the
drum kit is Rick Buckler playing

with his best foot forward. He
appears relaxed but it's his
footwork that gives the needed
framework.
The Jam scored big in Britain
last summer with the release of
their first Ip, In The City. Those
unaware of this album should
immediately give it a listen. The
urgency and power of the Jam's
music will then be -easy to grasp.
Polydor had the Jam's over from
Europe last December for two
nights at the hallowed CBGB's.
They came and saw, but the Jam
didn't conquer New York. They
were a little greener and the entire
rock scene tended to give them
less exposure because, after all,
compared to the nasty things that
the Pistols were doing, the Jam
weren't that outrageous. Due to
the lack of exposure they went
back to England, knowing that
they had another kilter album up
Producer Chriss Parry's sleeve,
ready to take both Britain and
America no matter if the
countries were ready. The album.
This Is The Modern World, says it
all, The Jam are one of the few
surviving members of the first

produced a second album on par

their songs do have hooks no

On stage appears a man looking
like a navvy on a Manchester
building site. He is John Weller,
Paul's father and manager of the
group. I guess he wants to keep it
in the family or keep his boy out

The band jumped around on

were,

as

expected, a farce. It was certainly
less than a religious experience
when Debbie Boome sweetly

Saturday Night Fever was not

The Bee Gees have meshed some

in the Oscars' credibility.
As usual, the most exciting
part of the evening was political.
In her acceptance speech for
"Best Supporting Actress" in

the Academy for supporting her
crusade against the "Zionist
hoodlums who are giving Jews the
world over a bad name." Redgrave

Later in the show, an award
winner and a presenter voiced
their feelings on the issue. One

political beliefs be voiced at such

event? Considering the
circumstances surrounding the
evening, I think yeh. Before the
awards, most critics thought that
Redgiave should win. Yet in the

For Redgrave, the award meant a
political victory as well.
Acting is perhaps the most
expressive and diverse art form.
Personal philosophies are utterly
intertwined with role
interpretations. It would seem, by
their reaction, that many
Hollywood "personalities" would
like to spend their lives at pool
parties and signing autographs.
Redgrave's open expression of her
beliefs is indeed refreshing.
Hopefully, this might mark the
beginning of a trend for popular
films to involve themselves more
with political as well as artistic
controversies. Can Hollywood
handle the responsibility? Jane
Fonda could!

The week of March 23rd. Its end,
the 25th, saw new orders rising.
The very air tingles as evening
warms the sky. At one point the
landscape we face while travelling
the QEW to Toronto yields a
stunning sight. We witness the sun
setting at a- rapid pace behind a
lone hill covered with many trees.
The mountain seemed to embrace
the sun, earth and light afire with
the glow of intuitive bright

To save time, however, there
are two ways to find out for
yourself. Hear Ra's Music. His

�Genesis: powerful theatrics
is the beginning of the end
by Dan Barrett
Spectrum Music Staff

Last Wednesday's concert was
the beginning of a new era for
rock band Genesis, and an end at
the same time. The Phil Collins
show was in town. There was a
new album, "and then there were
three", only two left from Peter
Gabriel's first book, those being

Firecrackers pop, lights out
and here they come "on the crest
of the wave," sea of voices shout
for "Eleventh Earl of Mar" from
last year's Wind and Wuthering,
Stueremer does all right, but
Flackett's work on that album was
mostly background. Neither of
them appear on And Then There
Were Three, but a live show needs
someone to fill in the bits. This is
undertaken by ex-Zappa drummer
Chester Thompson, who thumps a
good beat while Phil antics on
vocals.

Collins has gotten deep in the
lead-singer showman trip, and he's
good at it, bouncing around and

miming with the lyrics; the
dancing sailor jigs away the ghost
of Gabriel. He is a match for him
vocally, but I never saw Peter so

do given half a chance, as they
wouldn't let him break their tight
(at times monotonous) patterns
for any material.

"In the Cage" for the '74 tour.
This was the group's third song, a
surprise from The Lamb Lies

was a powerful one, the heavy

Subway spectre Rael lives in the
creator's protege, but no story or
costumes. Phil now resembles the
sweat-suited Gabriel of last year,
who did a leather-jacket encore of
"Back in N.V.C." at his concert.
Collins was the tamborine-kicking
lawnmower, "I Know What I
Like," an artist with the only
personality in Genesis, inciting the
crowd to clap in time with him.

It's all Collins, the eye-catching
force Genesis needs. Here he
introduces "Cinema Show" with a
story of Romeo undressing his
Juliet in the drive-in and tying her
to the steering wheel, only to be
interrupted by the start of the
sexuality of one
song. The
portrait of male and female, as
Phil's voice quavers the qualities
of both: "once a man like the sea

Better Than Rubies: A History of Women's
Education by Phyllis Stock (Capricorn Books, New
York $10.95)
"For wisdom is better than rubies; and all the
things that may be desired are not to be compared to
it."
Proverbs 8:11. For Seton Hall University
professor of history and noted scholar Phyllis Stock,
this valuable wisdom is available through education.
Her book Better Then Rubies: A History of
Women's Education is a study of hpw, for the last
five centuries, women have attained it; and exactly
what sources and fields of knowledge have been
available. It is ultimately a history of women's
experience in a man's world.
Planned chronologically, the book starts with an
introductory survey of women's education from
antiquity-to the Middle Ages, and continues with a
highly detailed account from the Renaissance to the
20th century including Enlightment, and industrial
Revolution. Major areas covered include France,
Italy. Germany, Russia, England, and the United
States. Dr. Stock goes
the historical
development of each country through each century.
Her method enables her to raise and look for the
answers to certain fundamental questions among
them; What typds of education have been available
to women? Under what conditions are women likely
to be offered an education, and why? How is the
social structure related to women's education? In a
lucid and absorbing prose style. Or. Stock (as
objectively as possible) states her carefully
researched information in an understated manner.
Indeed, many of the facts about women's role in
education don't need a strong presentation. The
horror of their truth alone provides enough Impact.

Much opposition
Throughout history, the advocates for women’s
education have been few. Its opponents have feared
"negrtive" effects on women’s "immorality, virtue,
fragile bodies and weak minds". In Renaissance
Italy, where girls were often married before the age
of twenty to men who were older than twenty-five, a
wife's education was provided by her husband. This
education consisted of practical lessons on how to
mange a household and servants, with an emphasis
on a woman's knowing "how to conduct herself in a
chaste, modest, and sober manner." Women were
expected to put chastity and propriety before
learning. Only woman of nobility

Ideologically weak
Why is the U.S., touted to be always forward
moving, still slow concerning progress in women's
education? Dr. Stock is "still ideologically week on
sexual equality". Until a society realizes that it
benefits from the full development of the
capabilities of all its members, women's education
will not fully bloom. "Women's status will be equal
with men's when society is so structured as to make
use of all those capabilities." It's obvious we haven't

Better Than Rubies is not long ( which is a
statement in itself), and as the first book to

crucial than educating men." It is an important work

In this country, opposition was also rife, coming
even from academe itself. Edward Clarke of Harvard
University published a book called Sex in Education
in 1873, in which one of his arguments against
higher education for women was that it would
"destroy the ability of American women to bear
children, by overtaxing them at a critical stage in
their adolescent development." Others argued that
women would be "Unsexed" by too much
education; even the act of seeking one was
considered unfeminine and obscene. Surprisingly to
me, the latest comparative statistics on higher
education, gathered by UNESCO during the years
1972 to 1974, show a decline in the proportion of
American women in the higher ranks of academia.
Although they received 41.5 percent of all bachelor's
degrees and 39.7 percent of all master's degrees in
1970, they obtained only 13.3 percent of the Ph.Ds.
Women have also lost out on appointments to
college and university faculties.

M the no-sass grit of Louis Armstrong brought the humor and the
high reaching determination of The Creative Black Entertainer to
arouse the World, so continues the Bubbling Brown Sugar today.. The
fragrance of Fats Waller's Honeyrose (The Honeysuckle Rose) still
staggers with the sweetness and sweat of struggle, arid the bright tang
of open song for everyone. The echoes of Harlem carabets brimming
with the music of Duke Ellington still can be heard to this day, as the
very air yields to the bimp arid the ballet of the Black, Brown, and
Beige. The A Train takes us home to constant searching for^future
tracks of entertaining expression. Satchmo, knows. Sugar bears a
strength that no sour rushes can ever build up, and the bubbling brown

�Yogi Bhajam asks:
just what is today?
Yogi Bhajam, the man responsible for the introduction of
Kundalini Voga to the Western World, spoke Monday night in the
Fillmore Room. To begin his presentation, he asked everyone to relax.
Questions such as “What is today” provided humor, an informal
atmosphere, and served to introduce his first topic.
“Today is Monday, tomorrow is Tuesday. Today is finite,
tomorrow is infinite.” Could we comprehend the dichotomy?
Explaining his meaning of this statement further, he discussed the
absence of the past. There arp only memories; no future, only desires.
There is only what we are doing in the present and that shapes the
future. If you are sad or depressed today, your Tuesday will not be
measurably better. “I know my Tuesday will be far out,” he said,
“because Monday was so great.” A general talk cortcerning a way of life
followed. "There is no such thing as sin; we just sometimes goof a
little.”
Demonstrating a very realistic attitude toward the wide differences
of his audience, which included members of the very

goof a little,”
Hope it floats

“Take time to sleep and take time to exercise enough to be sleepy
ai night. Everybody should eat less, but while they are eating, they
should concentrate on the eating and not anything else.” Bhajam added
one particularly amusing bit of advice: “When you are done going to
the bathroom everyday, get up, turn around, and look at what you
have done. If it floats, that means your body is digesting almost all of
what you eat, and that is good. If it does not float, you are eating too
much, and your body cannot absorb that much extra food In other
words, if it sinks, you are sinking with it.”
Philosophy followed, with Bhajam entering into a discourse on the
power of the spoken word. Urging everyone to tell it like it is, he
declared that we ail should die before we have to lie. “Walk straight,
talk straight, and live straigh you will feel much better, live longer,
and you will sleep good at night.” His message was filled with bits of
common sense advice, such as the “Golden Rule.” He concluded, “Just
as we see btfauty in the stars twinkling in the heavens above us, God
looks down and sees us all as Stars, beautiful and twinkling/’

Rugby club set to go

Bruce
Hadsell:

Coming off a promising season that saw four of its players
compete on the SUNY All-Star team in the Cortland Tournament,
the UB Rugby Club will open its spring season against cross own
rival Buffalo State tomorrow at 1 p.m.
The game against the Bengals should be a prelude to what
team members expect to be a successful season. The talented
scrum, which was responsible for most of the team’s past success,
will be returning this year. The Mad Turtles will also be benefited
by the return of their whole backfield.
The season will be highlighted by the Upstate Rugby Union
Tournament at Syracuse University. The Mad Turtles, seeded in
the top twenty, hope to bettej their record of last year. “We plan
to hurt them deep inside,commented team member John

The Buffalo wrestling squad
has accomplished more this season
than it ever did before. The Bulls
home
their

first national title. But, the team
will be losing five seniors from
their lineup, one of whom is
Bruce Hadsell, who holds record
for the most dual meet wins at

Royal Kegglers to vie
for national crown

UB.
Bruce wrestles because he
enjoys the satisfaction of winning,
lie not only has a dual record of
50-17-3, but this past year he
placed third in the New York
Championships at
State

classes.

Hadsell

red-shirted

(didn’t

wrestle) last year to improve his
academics and to sharpen his
wrestling skills. Although Bruce
was able to study more, the break
did not improve his wrestling. “It
hurt me more than it helped me; I
goofed off and gained too much
weight,” he said. But, he kept in
condition by working out with
the team last spring and he did
well in jummer tournaments at
190 pounds.
During the summer Bruce also
enjoyed working with young
children Jn wrestling programs. He
is interested in coaching the

younger age groups because he
considers that to be the most
time
the
in
development of a wrestler. “If a
kid does takedowns only on the
right side. I’d like to teach him,
important

while he’s young, to do
takedowns on the left side. But,
more important is the mental
attitude,” said Bruce. Bruce also
gets a lot of satisfaction watching
a youngster under his guidance
come off the mat a victor.
As Bruce
looks ahead to
employment
in business
management, wrestling for the
first time will take a back seat in
his life. But, he wishes to always
have some kind of relationship
with wrestling. Be it as a referee, a
coach or as a member of a club,
Buffalo has not heard the last of
Bruce’s wrestling fests. Looking
ahead, Michael does not expect to
find another wrestler like him.
“Bruce Hadsell is a once in a
lifetime person,” the coach
commented.

Big time
The win advances the team to compete for the National Title in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin at the end of the month. The Royals will meet
eleven teams, from all parts of the country, with hopes of bringing
home UB’s first national bowling title. While no UB team has ever*
made it to the finals, Fulton and Cobum competed in the tournament
last year, representing Erie Community College. That team captured
fourth place in the final standings. Erie will again be competing this
year, but the other teams are not yet known.
Poland feels Coburn’s and Fulton’s experience from last year, as
well as the experience the team gained from the Las Vegas Invitational
tournament in December, will help the Royals’ game. In the
Invitational, Buffalo placed second out of thirty-two teams, finishing
behind San Jose State, another bowling powerhouse. The twelve teams
will bowl twelve games each over two days and the six teams with the
top pin totals will then go on to compete in a special playoff format.
The three high teams will then bowl two games for the tournament
title on April 29.
Meanwhile, Fulton will be competing this weekend in the National
Singles Tournament in Miami.

Fourth of seven

The UB Royals will vie for the National Collegiate Bowling
Championship Tournament Title April 26-29 after their win at the
sectional qualifiers last weekend in Pittsburgh. Buffalo knocked down a
total of 7768 pins in nine games to capture the meet. West Virginia
placed second with 7491, Penn State third at 9033, Corning fourth
(6754) and Eastern Michigan fifth (6506).
The Royals
represented by seniors Patti Schafer and Liz
sophomore Mary
Wolszczak, juniors Cindy Coburn and Sue
Anne Buboltz and freshmen Marylee Braniecki arid Terry Strassel
became the first UB bowling squad ever to reach the sectional
qualifiers. Their victory, according to Coach Jane Poland was the result
of “good teamwork.”
■
Dry lane conditions caused all pin totals to be lower than normally
expected in playoff competition. Because dry lanes caused the ball to
hook more, the bowlers had to adjust their normal style of play. “Sue
and Cindy, with thejiigher season averages, were affected by the lane
conditions, but Patti and the rest of the team came through with very
good bowling,” Poland commented.
Schafer, the squad’s captain, led the Royals throughout the meet
throwing an overall average of 187, while rolling a 226 in the seventh
game. Wolszczak, coming through with a strong performance, finished
the qualifiers with a 176 average for seven games to aid the Royals’
cause.

Daniel Schorr to speak here
Daniel Schorr, former CBS Network News
Correspondent, wiH speak this Sunday night at 7:30
p.n». in $te Fillmore Room on “Jew* hi American
Kitties and Government,” sponsored by Hillel
House, the Jewish Student Union (JSUO, Chabad
House amt the Student Association &lt;SA).
In September 1976, concluding more than a
quarter-century of reporting for CBS, at home and
abroad, Schorr resigned
after a victorious
history-making confrontation with Congress over the
freedom of the press and the protection of sources.
Against the wishes of the White House, the CIA,
the House of Representatives and his own
employers, Schorr had arranged for the publication
of the suppressed final report of the House
Intelligence Committee, detailing failures and
scandals in the CIA and FBI. After interviewing
more than 400 witnesses and spending a
quarter-million dollars in a vain quest for the source
of the leak, the House Ethics Committee summoned
Schorr and demanded to know his source on pain of
a possible jail sentence for contempt of Congress.
Nine times Schorr refused, saying, in a televised
hearing, that “to betray a source would mean to dry
up future sources for many future reporters” and
would mean “to betray myself, my career and my
life*
The Ethics Committee, unable to muster the
votes for a contempt citation, finally backed off
from the confrontation. CBS, which had taken
Schorr off the air, in February 1976, when the
controversy broke, offered him reinstatement in

On April 7 at 8 p.m. in 240

on Chairman Mao and the struggle

for socialism in China. His talk
will help in analyzing the current

like the Cultural Revolution
occurred. Clark is a noted scholar,
has met in China with many of its

eyed U. of Md. post
A source close to the University Administration said Tuesday that
President Robert L. Ketter unsuccessfully sought the position of
Presidency at the University of Maryland.
Ketter strongly denied the claim. He said that Maryland sent him a
letter expressing some interest but “that’s the extent of it.”
“You get letters like that four or five times a year,” Ketter stated.
“1 did not pursue it whatsoever.”
R.L. Hornbake, Chairman of the presidential search committee at
the University of Maryland did not deny that Ketter had sought the
position. “1 do not think it would be proper to comment any further
than that,” Hornbake told The Spectrum. He did say that Ketter did
not “formally apply" for the vacancy created by the mandated
retirement of 70-year-old Wilson H. Elkins.
It was learned that the search committee has decided upon a
which at one point attracted 300
finalist after narrowing the field
to twelve and then five candidates. Ironically, the
applicants
President of SUNY at Stony Brook, John S. Toll, was selected as the
top choice by the comijiittee. Sources at The Diamondback, the
s'tudent newspaper at Maryland, said that Ketter was definitely not
among the final twelve candidates.
Toll is expected to annouce his acceptance of the post Thursday in
College Park, Md., home of the mammoth university. A move is afoot
to keep the popular Toll as President at Stony Brook, according to The
Diamondback.
Last Spring Ketter denied rumors that he sought the President’s
position at Emery College in Georgia. He has held his present position
at Buffalo since 1970.

In
stunning reversal of expected defense
defendants in the Richard Long murder trial confessed to a hushed
courtroom their participation in the June 25 beating death. Buffalo
police officers Philip Gramaglia and Gary Atti, and co-defendant Jack
Giammaresi all admitted to the jury that they assaulted the Long youth
after a traffic incident. The three also testified that police officer Sam
Fusco, who has not been charged in the case, was present at the murder
scene.
Testifying under defense questioning, the three defendants claimed

innocent of any wrongdoing in the case. The extensively covered trial
of the seven men will continue despite the dramatic confessions of the
three defendants. Justice Norman Stiller told the jury that “the case is
not finished. There is more yet to be heard.”
Fusco had been named in the case during the special grand jury
hearings and in previous court testimony. He has never been criminally
charged in the murder, though suspended from the police department.
Outside the court his attorneys declined comment on the testimony of

‘Courage and love'
The testimony came

as a surprise to most in the packed
courtroom, although the defendants’ attorneys said that, after their
indictments October 14, Atti, Gramaglia and Giammarasi decided to
testify if the case reached a trial. According to their lawyer, John
Condon, Jr., the three never thought their four co-defendants would be
charged. After his confession, Gary Atti told his four friends, “Did you
think we were going to have you go to jail?”
Turchiarelli, Gerace and Vitale had testified before the special
grand jury that they were innocent of the murder.
Condon said that he asked the defendants before they took the
stand if they were sure they wanted to go through with their
admissions of guilt. He added that the actions of the three were signs of
v
“great courage and love.”
Testimony by the three defendants differed from previous
testimony given by several prosecution witnesses. Atti, Gramaglia and
Giammaresi said that the assault took no longer than 45 seconds.
According to prosecution witnesses, it was several minutes before the
beating ended.

No intentions
In their version of the incident, the defendants admitted to
punching and kicking Long but, they added, they had no intention of
seriously injuring him. Gramaglia admitted to punching Long, and Atti
said that he kicked him twice, once in the head. In previous testimony,
the jury was told that a blow to the nose caused Long to suffocate in

Administrative sources said
Telfer’s resignation was handled
“poorly" and has created morale
problems in the middle levels of the
administration. One employee in
Capen Hall said the resignation
request was the result of a general
dissatisfaction with Telfer’s work
and not an isolated incident.
Ketter denied that the
re-assignment created any morale
problem. “There’s plenty of work
for everyone,” he observed. When
asked
to evaluate
Telfer’s
performance Ketter responded:
“Everybody has their ups and
downs. I would say that there were
things on which he performed well
and things on which he did not
perform so well.”
Telfer was brought to the
University in 1972 to coordinate

In the end, the Student Senate
that supported his athletic
amendment returning football to
Buffalo and humiliated him in his
effort to withdraw from SASU,
listened to his final oration in
polite silence. There were no
cheers, no standing ovation, not
even obligatory applause as the
outgoing SA President thanked
the Senate for its cooperation
during
his tumultuous

administration.
His final act as President was
vintage Delia, utilizing an obscure
and outdated presidential power
which thwarted adversary Jeff
Lessoff’s attempt to amend the
SA Constitution and thus prevent
the new Executive Director from
removing Lessoff from office. It

was decisive and direct, vindictive
and effective, the type of move
that has evoked harsh criticism
that Delia has been dictatorial;
that the President refused to seek
advice, preferring rather to make
decisions on his own, regardless of
his constituents’ opinions.
Recently, The Spectrum asked
Delia to objectively review his
administration, to discuss both its
accomplishments and its failures,
to answer its critics and comment
on their charges; to compare with
the past and look to the future.
The interview began with a

INTERNATIONAL STUDENTS
RE-ENTRY TRANSITION WORKSHOP

“Marcel Duchamp Apres Beaubourg” is the title of a slide
lecture to be given by Visiting Professor of French Michel
SAnouillet Jones on Thursday, April 6, at 4 p.m. in Room 102
Clemens Hall.
Professor Sanouillet is a specialist on Dada and Surrealism, and
is the author of Histoire Generate du Mouvement Dada. He has also
written numerous book-length studies and articles on topics related
to the Dadists and Surrealists.
Marcel Duchamp, the focus of Professor Sanouillet’s talk, was a
major figure to emerge from the Dada art movement in the early
1920’s in Europe. He popularized the notion of the “readymade,!’
wherein he examined the way in which a common object could
become something rare by the addition of personal detail.
Bom in France, Professor Sanouillet taught at the University of
Toronto for nearly 20 years. In 1969 he was appointed to the

University of Reims in France.
Since 1971, he has been director, of the Centre for Twentieth
Century Studies at the University of Nice.
His lecture is being presented by the Department of Modern

three defendants also told the jury about the traffic incident

pulled up next to him at the intersection of Ken more and Englewood.
Long then began yelling at Atti, who was in the passenger’s seat.
When the light turned green, Long continually swerved in front of
Gramaglia*s car until they reached Kenmoie and Starin Avenues. Then,
Long ran a red light and stopped his car in the middle of the
intersection. A shouting match then erupted between Gramaglia and

Incriminating evidence j i)
According to the defendants, as they ran towards Long’s car, he
yelled obscentites at them and said, “Come on you Dagos.” After the
assault the defendants said they drove Fusco’s car to Starin Avenue
where they left it and porceedesd to Mulligan’s Bar, confirming earlier
testimony of several prosecution witnesses.
The defendants said that when they first heard reports of Long’s
death they didn’t believe it. Atti said on the witness stand that the
news “felt like someone stabbed me in the heart.”
Before Thursday’s dramatic events, the jury heard 42 prosecution
witnesses deliver htcriminatng evidence against the defendants. A medal
found at the scene was identified as one belonging to Gramaglia. The
medal had his badge number, 311, on the front and his initials, P.C.G.,

printed on the back.
Witnesses also related overhearing conversations in which Gary
Atti said, “Tell them the car was stolen. Make sure they think that.”
Atti was also to have said at Mulligan’s, “Boom and then 1 kicked
him.”
During the weeks of testimony the jury was also told that some
officers of the Colds Springs Precinct went to Mulligan’s and the Three
Coins Bar to look for the defendants and tell them of Long’s death.
Currently the Buffalo Police Department is investigating the incident to
see if it warrants any departmental charges.

Carolina.
The major outcome of the Yale
meeting was the formation of a
regional coalition bearing the
same name as the conference. The
newly formed group of various
college and civic movements was a
major conference goal, growing
out of “an increased need to
intensify opposition to apartheid
and all forms of racism,” as stated
in the opening remarks.

the conference spokesperson.
The Republic of South Africa
has a population of 26,000,000.
Non-whites outnumber whites
four to one. The white minority
controls the economy and the
personal lives of the non-whites
totally. Senator Dick Clark of
Iowa wrote in a New York Times
editorial, “South Africa is the
only country in the world in
which men and women are
systematically
denied
fundamental freedoms in virtually
every sphere of human endeavor
on the sole basis of the color of
their skin.”
The basic goal of the members
of the conference is to reform the
system of apartheid Ideas on the
means of reaching that goal varied
extremely, causing heated debates
on every level. Major speakers
such as New York State Judge
William Booth and Southern
Africa magazine editor Jennifer
Davis, spoke of reform of the
white supremacy regime and were
lauded by the audience. None of
the speakers commented on the
means to reach reform.
The fire came after speeches
had been made and workshops
attended, when different campus
and civil organizations convened
the last day of the conference at
the Plenary
Session. Vested
interests surfaced when the newly
formed New England coalition

he said. 'Peaceful means of

Prometheus project

Living spacefor the elderly
Joel DiMarco
Spectrum

Staff Writer

A group of graduate students in the School of
Architecture and
Design here has devised a

comprehensive plan for converting a local vacant

school

building

into

an

“intermediate

housing

project” for the elderly.
The plan, called the Prometheps Project, calls
for the remodeling of Public School 83 on Merrimac
into a part meat-like living space for the aged and for
the construction of a community center attached to
the rear of the building. “The project combines the
more successful features of 150 to 170 other
projects,” said director Scott Danford. “In it, we
hope to provide an alternative to the aged who may
no longer be able to live by themselves, but who by
no means should be placed in a nursing home where
you have little say in what happens to you.
“This is not a giant playpen where we’re going
to get rid of the old folks; the residents participate in
meaningful social roles.”

Each of the school’s classrooms would be
divided into two one-bedroom apartments complete
with bathroom and kitchenette, with the exception
of the four large classrooms at either end of the
school which would be converted into two-bedroom
apartments. Some of the space for the apartments
would be taken from the school’s large corridors and
windows would be replaced by large “dormer” type
windows protruding a bit beyond the building’s
outer walls. The main entrance would lead directly

familiarity and continuity.
The project is of a type known as “age
segregated,” with elderly living with elderly, instead
of mixing in with other age groups. Many people
cruel, but Danford
consider this unfair
defended the idea bCTieving that age segregated
housing circumvents the situation in which the
elderly often do not ask their younger neighbors for
help because they feel that they cannot return the
effort. He also cited several studies, particularly one
long term study done in San Antonio, showing that
the elderly live longer and more productively when
together than their counterparts who continue to
live in their former residences where they sometimes
become their own tormentor, “They still need
positive reinforcement for their efforts to be
meaningful,” stressed Danford.
Furthermore, the project could use block grant
funds to renovate the facility; once completed, the
facility could generate enough revenue in apartment
rent
however low

and personality trivia.
It is strange and probably unfortunate that so few people

There is nothing wrong with being a "movie organization,"
as newly elected president Jim Paul recently called IRC, but
that so few people voted is a definite sign that more new
directions must be taken.
IRC's collaboration with other student organizations to
sponsor the Knicks-Braves game is a perfect example of what
and it is a big but
must be done with more activities. But
activities are not the only realm in which a dormitory
government can spin successfully.
IRC representatives must meet with housing officials
immediately to insure that all dormitory space is allocated to
students and not to offices. They must demand that broken
eievatprs be fixed immediately. They must organize
effectively to force Food Service to lower its food and Pub
prices, or perhaps should look into establishing their own on
campus bar that would generate money back to students.
They must demand that University Police put a halt to”the
rampant and often arbitrary ticketing of student vehicles.
Hey, why not? And this is where the real "politics" enter
the student government scene. Not the petty bickering, but

Ten months after the brutal beating death of Richard
Long three of the defendants in the celebrated trial have
confessed to the act. They have also claimed that the other
four defendants currently on trial were not present at the

manslaughter.
Why have they suddenly confessed and how can they
state that they didn't mean to injure Long? They allegedly
stomtted him to a bloody pulp but didn't mean to injure
him? A timely confession is often part of a game plan
(although it takes some nerve to say it in print), and one
must wonder exactly how the defendants and their lawyers
are attempting to paint the big picture.
Read on. It's the city's hottest news going.

Obscene
To the Editor

To the Editor

Recently there has been a revival of fraternities

and sororities here at UB. The idea of restoring them
has been well received, although many of their
pledging practices have not.
For example, I and other females at this
University, have received phone calls that we are
certain are part of the pledging process. Amongst
other things contained in the conversation, was a
request by the caller that he be our slave and was
seeking emharassment. This kind of intimidating
phone call could be very upsetting to many females.
It should be noted that this type of phone call is
considered OBSCENE and illegal.
Such practices should be condemned and ceased
immediately. They can only serve to put sororities
and fraternities in a bad light.

I have been a student at UB for the last three
semesters, and I have become used to seeing The
Spectrum's -typically narrow minded reporting. But
the article on fraternities was too much. I had to
write my feelings.
First off, there is a world of difference between
a national fraternity and a local one. A national has
chapters all over the country, has periodic visits from
field secretaries who make sure the individual
chapter is operating within the fraternities’ laws and
the Universities’ rules A national fraternity cannot
exist if it persists in the activities of 15 years ago (i.e.
hazing). To become a full-fledged chapter in my
fraternity (Sigma Phi Epsilon), our group must sign a
statement that binds us to a rule of non-hazing. The
University has a like rule Since our situation at UB
is precarious at the moment (as are all the Greek
organizations) we cannot afford to do anything
wrong. SPE will not allow hazing, and no other
groups at UB will either.
Secondly, the article by Botbie Demme makes
no mention of the good things fraternities stand for,
and do. A club at this school, that brings together
people who share like interests, brings their members
together to socialize, does community events, is
lauded and gets good press. However, tack two or

The article concentrated on the drinking aspects
of a fraternity. Tell me, what if the example given
happened to be an apartment on Minnesota Avenue
and the people involved had just been friends

such publicity? I think the answer is no. 1 think the
stigma of the word fraternity made the event get
such coverage. It was tragic, but it does not reflect
on all fraternities. K.lan Alpine is a local fraternity
with no national supervision. All the groups at UB
have national affiliations.
All we want is to establish a chapter at UB. We
need members. We offer the same services as any
other club does; attivities, involvement with people
who share the same interests, and fellowship. In
fraternities it’s called brotherhood, and really, isn’t
that what life’s all about?

wonder why a question about broken campaign
promises pertaining to allocating education monies
for southwest Texas did not include broken

question on when Carter would come visit the
Governor of North Carolina neglected to mention

the Wilmington Ten. In my eyes, it seems Mr. Kline
should be given credit for having the perception to
see beyond the superficiality of the conference.
These people represented some of the “brightest
young people in America.” Unfortunately, as shown
by the article, their capacities to critically think are
limited. These people represented the worst in
America, and the worst that a free press can offer.
When Thomas Jefferson said, “If 1 had to
choose between a government without newspapers,
or newspapers without government, I would surely
take the latter,” he had in mind people who would
question, people who would think, people who
wouldn’t be complacent, people who would dare to
challenge. That’s what Mr. Jefferson’s vision of
newspapers and the people running them was.
Unfortunately, except for a small handful of people,
such as Mr. Kline, Thomas Jefferson’s words have
fallen upon deaf ears.

Commentary

The GSA reviews Ketter
President Ketter has spoken before the Faculty
Senate of what he views as problems afflicting this
University and what he proposes as his actions to
deal with them. While the President recognized the
prevailing low morale of the University community
resulting from the different problems, there was no
serious proposal made in his report as to how it
could be overcome. More significantly, merely by
reading his report, one would not recognize the fact
that the University is run for its student population,
and that its very functioning is made possible by the
significant role played by the students.
Some of the problems mentioned in the report
related to the availability of state resources and are
determined by factors external to the University. To
mention a few, they are inadequate physical
facilities, underfunding for capital equipment and

operating costs, etc. These problems cannot be
seriously addressed and resolved if the University
Community doesn’t assert itself as a cohesive entity
vis-a-vis the State.

much controversy has been'raised concerning the
review of Mathematical Sciences Division. President
Ketter and Vice President Bunn have expressed the
view that the University’s willingness to conduct
these reviews is based on its confidence in the
strength of the programs. GSA believes that a
periodic academic program review serves the
necessary purpose of identifying the strengths and
weaknesses of the program, as well as the direction
for its future development.
Graduate students and faculty at large have a
great stake in being involved in this review process.

The most active laboratory
researcher on biorhythm in the

done studies on hospital deaths,

incidents and single car fatalities.
In one study, he found that out of
200 hospital deaths, 135 or 68
percent had died on a critical day
or soon after.

account for 20 percent, since only
one day in five is critical.

A hearing will be convened Friday in Federal
Court over the implementation of New York State’s
new Generic Drug Law (GDL). The hearing was
ordered by Federal Judge Vincent L. Broderick
following an attempt by the Pharmaceutical Society
of New York to get an injunction blocking the April
1 bill from enforcement.
The GDL is a consumer interest bill that will
force pharmacists, whenever possible to dispense a
state-approved lower cost substitute drug in place of
higher priced name-brand drugs. The substitutes,
approved by the Food and Drug Administration, are
the exact chemical equivalents of the name-brands

New York pharmacists have been protesting the
new law for various technical and practical reasons
One of these is the requirement that where
substitutes are allowed, the cheaper generic drugs
must be stocked or the prescription cannot be filled
This poses a threat that some customers may be

brand is more expensive and cannot be given.

The
third
cycle,

Alfred Teltscher, a doctor of
engineering teaching in Innsbruck,
Austria.
Influenced by other
biorhythm studies, he studied the
performance of his students. Like
most teachers, he saw that even
the best students have their good

records of the performance on
exams, the dates of exams and the

On critical days, one cycle will
dominate, but never completely.
For example, on emotionally
critical days the strength of the
physical and intellectual rhythms
may cancel out any threat. When
all three rhythm -1 are at low phase,
a person is unlikely to perform at
his peak. But exactly how much
below his best he will perform is
unknown. All this is further
complicated by environmental
variables. If a person lies in bed
during a critical day, there will be
little chance for disaster to strike.
If a person has no opportunity to
perform outstandingly during a
peak period, no advantage is
gained by its existence.

One local pharmacist who asked not to be

Profit motivation
Proponents of the bill claim that

it

will save

K

consumers up to two-thirds ot their yearly drug
costs. Richard Van Slyke, in answer to that claim,
said, "Most people have a co-pay plan or are on
welfare and only pay a dollar or two anyway.”
Advocates also have attacked pharmacists’
opposition to the law, claiming that their stand is
purely profit-motivated, aside
from all medical
arguments. This however, may be an unfair
assessment since prices for generic drugs are
generally lower, but profit margins are, in most
much more lucrative than name-brand

Fest’ toperk
up dorm environment
The Fargo Quadrangle housing staff is sponsoring a “Fargo Fest”
this Saturday to beautify the dormitory environment.
During the Fest, students in Fargo Quad will be painting murals,
figures and designs on the walls in the hallways, on ceilings and in the
laundry rooms. After the painting is completed, students who
participated will be invited to an extremely inexpensive meatball
dinner with salad.

After the dinner, there will be a free coffeehouse provided by the
Fargo Resident Advisors (RAs) and Head Residents as well as by
students living in the dorms. Clifford Furnas College (CFC), housed in
Fargo, will supply coffee and doughnuts during the entertainment.
Beer and wine will also be available.
The paint to be used in the Fest will be supplied by University
Maintenance and colors not available through the University have been
donated by local paint merchants.
So far, fifty drawings have been submitted to the Office of
Facilities and Planning for approval.
,

According to Joyce Barrett, a Fargo RA, student enthusiasm has
been phenomenal. “We’re expecting approximately 250 students to
paint, cook and entertain,* said Barrett, “it should be a great day and a
great deal of fun for ail.”
Fargo Head Residents Kathy Ilardi and Phil Samuels conceived of
the idea in an attempt to give some individuality and identity to small
floor groups which are presently hampered by the bare beige and stark
white walls currently in the dorms. They also believed that if the
students personally contributed time and effort in creating a more
attractive environment, they would take greater care in maintaining the
surroundings.

All three Buffalo television stations have been invited to cover the
event, as have die major newspapers. Barry Lillis of Channel 2 news
was sent a Fargo Fest tee-shirt which he promised to wear soon.
Gene Demanicor, an RA whose hall submitted six drawings of
dragons and castles said, “I can’t wait until Saturday. My fldor’s going
to look like Fairyland!”

GrayPanthers seek
to unite generation
-

An old man in the United States his children leave home; his job
is taken away from him; the cost of living goes up but his pension does
not. Stairs become harder to climb. Perhaps his wife dies.
This is a hypothetical situation but the fact remains that one out
of every lour suicides in the United States is .committed by a person
over 65 years old. The plight of the American elderly is perhaps this
fliitfaMi*s greatest tragedy.
At last, however, a group of concerned citizens has formed an
alliance to combat “ageism.” They are the Gray Panthers.
The organization was founded by Maggie Kuhn in 1970 when she
was forced to retire at the age of 65. Realizing that other people were
in the same demaning predicament, she organized the Panthers, a group
that is now approximately 10,000 strong nationwide.
—

Economic democracy
The Gray Panthers’ goals encompass the whole world,
all
generations. Political activism and non-violent demonstrations are
instrumental in their opposition to such issues as the mandatory
retirement age and their fight for housing improvements. Other aims
include “economic democracy,” which is in effect a socialist economy
based on serving human needs instead of gaining material wealth.
Perhaps their most intensive work has been in the development of
a Youth Task Force. The purpose of this, according to a recent Grey
Panther newsletter is to “determine how we can unite the generations
by recognizing, each age group’s concerns and needs and making them
everybody’s concern.” The State University of New York (SUNY) has'
granted the Gray Panthers the right to affiliate with the State campusea

and a $500 budget.
“There must be more, interaction between the communityand the

Kramer is a student here and will be receiving his BA ih Sociology.
He is looking forward to the Gray Panthers’ emergence on campus.
“I’ve enjoyed my association with each and every student and have
never felt uncomfortable with them,” he said. The introduction day is
tentatively scheduled for May 2 and will include dancing in the

“We must fight for the world now for better living. We must fight

�Orbital Wars; latter
satellites and space

Legislators hack bid

Buff St. makes gains in
quest for new gymnasium

by Robert Cohen
Special to The Spectrum

It was announced Saturday, March 18, that the United States
wishes to begin talks with the Soviets on barring the present use and
further development of “killer satellites." For unbeknownst to a
significant number of the world’s population, there’s quite a bit of
science fiction-type tomfoolery going on in the upper reaches of the
earth’s atmosphere.
Recently the U.S. has become quite perturbed over Russia’s
deployment and testing of these killer satellites (orASATs as they’re
known in military circles) whose mission it is to seek out and destroy
hostile (meaning U.S.) surveillance and communication satellites. The
latter are used by the Pentagon to check on what the Soviets are up to
with their nuclear arsenal, effectively policing the Strategic Arms
Limitations Talks (SALT) agreements and also to accurately guide
American missiles to their targets in the Soviet heartland; that is in the
remote event of an all out nuclear war. Without these marvels of space
technology the apocalypse would be much harder to come by.
Russia has successfully tested one of these ASATs, blowing up a
target drone in earth orbit. And a while back, U.S. Defense Chief
Harold Brown hinted that the Soviets had gone so far as to test their
capabilities elsewhere r specifically on U.S. government orbital
property which certainly couldn’t make the Pentagon too happy.
However, as the Soviets know all too well, two can play this fun game
of space wars. And at this very moment the U.S. is busy working on its
own killer satellitespossibly equipped with high powered laser weapons
to /.ap those dastardly commjes out of the skies. So the question now
becomes one far removed from who’ll rule the seas or even the air. It’s
now who’ll be the lord of space.
Sounds like Intriguing science fiction you say; sure does, only

Back on earth a mild mannered technician is manning his
impressive board at Strategic Air Command (SAG) headquarters in
Omaha, Nebraska when he is alerted by an ominous flashing light in the
middle of his control panel. More than a little bit disturbed, he leaps
from his seat and rushes over to the section supervisor Colonel Sullivan.
Distraught, the Colonel calls Washington direct line to Secretary of
Defense Barry Goldwater.
“Mr. Secretary,” he blurts-frantically into the phone, “This is
Colonel Sullivan SAC Headquarters. 1 have a very important matter to
break to you. Our satellite tracking board shows that surveillance
satellite XRT 50A has just been blown apart.”
“What,” the groggy defense chief answers.
“1 said XRT 50A has been blown to smithereens.”
“What are you talking about, that new spy satellite.”

“Believe me sit, there’s just no chance of that.”
A long pause and then Goldwatcr asks in a sober tone, “Do you

“Mr. Secretary, it can’t be anybody but, unless its alien invaders.”
“Look Sullivan, I’m going to get in touch with the President; I’ll

The loud ring of a telephone splits the darkness of the White

“Hello Ronald this is Barry.”
“Yes Barry, what is it?”
“Ron, I just received a call from SAC headquarters; they say that

“You gotta be kidding Barry.”
“Mr. President, I wish 1 was.”
“Damn, those low down bastards, we’ll get ’em,” the President
spits. “Look Barry, I want you to call the National Security Council

“Okay Ron, they’ll be here as soon as possible.”

3:15, a coterie of uniformed men and bla'ck suited VIPS shuffle
into the Oval Office in hushed excitement. President Reagen, Defense
Chief Goldwater and Secretary of State Henry Kissinger stand erect
around the President’s awesomic mahogany desk. The President
motions for Kissinger to draw the curtains and then eyes his anxious

“Okay men, you all know why you’re here, we’ve got a decision to

The Joint Chiefs murmur in agreement.
“General Haig, what do you advise?”
“Well, I say we wing ZQH 53B into a higher orbit and zap the shit
out of those Red ASATs and then take care of some Soviet spy
satellites while we’re at it.”
The President smiles and then says softly, “Excellent Alex, just
what I was thinking. Then gentlemen are we all in agreement on this
plan of action?”
A resounding yes erupts from the men. The President lifts a red
telephone receiver from his desk direct line to SAC.
“Hello General Allison, this is the President; we want you to
initiate The Vendetta Plan, blast the pants off of those commies.”
“Yes sir,” Allison snaps.”
With the war room of SAC headquarters in frenzied excitement
the big board lights up, green lights indicating the orbital positions of
Russian satellites and in red, the American killer satellites. The red
lights close in inexorably on the green, one by one the greens
disappear, followed by a loud cheer from the hyped war room. 8,000

Humor helps
What does Bremer think of the
total athletic program here at UB?
“A school that fields teams solely
through student funds can never
create national champs. We need
some state funding,” he stated.
Bremer cited other state schools
like Pennsylvania, Ohio and
Michigan, whose enormous sports
programs
are funded totally
through football profits. “If the
University would go into the red
for the initial payments, the
sports program would eventually
pay for itself,” he said. “A college
that is all academics is selling itself
short. Buffalo needs stronger

Bremer sees himself coachi
the team for one more year,
getting his degree, and then
making an endeavor for the
Olympic team.
The characteristic that most
strongly separates Bremer from
the ordinary coach is his humor.
Although disappointed with his
team’s performance at the North
Atlantics this year, he forthrightly
refused to allow them to wallow
in murky defeat. Rather, they all

This collection provides access to the first twelve years of the Spectrum.

Kerter must come to grips with
his acceptance of a clause that
would allow SUNY to send troops
to Ellicott if the Creek is closed
for any reason. This “reservation"
angered
the

relatives of Brig. Gen. H. Smuggler
and raised the possibility that a
complication in the Ellicottian
plebiscite may arise. The chances
are
that the Ellicottians will
accept the treaty before their
homeland sinks into the mud.

the late 1 800s and leased for 99

W GYM FOR AMHERST; Work finally got underway in #a
construction of Amherst's new $9 million athletic fieldhouse. Tht
main entrance to the gym, pictured above, is near completion, and
work will soon begin on the other 99 percent of the project. The
only problems with the construction thus far, noted head engineer
Frank Frutt, is that the State Department of Transportation forgot
to reroute Millersport Highway before construction was initiated.
Hence, Frutt fumed, cars are continually smashing into the new
structure, slowing progress considerably. In any case. State Division
of the Budget official Paul Villette was so incensed that
construction was resumed at Amherst that he went berserk, running
aimlessly throughout the Albany Mall, carving obscenities in the
marble.

�Striking Nurses let
professors go naked
by Bob Throb
RIP.

The Nurses who feed and dress the professors at* this University
have gone on strike, creating widespread havoc as disheveled and
partially naked hungrey teachers roam blindly through the halls
searching for truth but unable to find their classrooms.
The nurses,' led by Union leader Clara Barton, described their
working conditions as “slovenly and wet.” She continued, “We need
more nurses hired at higher wages. Right now, we have to run from
office to offi e so by the time we get to see one professor, another has
made a mess.”
Faculty observers commented that the nurses were not doing that
great a job to begin with. Said Marvin Parvin, “How can they bitch
when they dress the professors in 1950’s style pants which are too
short anyway. And then they couple that with droopy maroon socks. I
just can’t understand if ."
Barton giggled in reply, “We have to make do with what the
Salvation Army gives us.”
The State Board of Regents has taken quick action. Several
Emergency stations are distributing “do-it-yourself Pabhim Kits,”

dribbled, “The preponderance of evidence, in my
opidHH, irrefutably evinces the manifestations of unique discontent
pervaSgg our nursing establishment.” Unable to continue, the
profesror collapsed onto the sidewalk, curldd up into the fetal position
and began sucking his thumb, muttering “Where’s my mommy?”
The department of engineering appears to be the least affected.
Professor E&gt;uchd Bridges said, “Basically, we’re not that spacey as many
other faculty members. Why, I even know several men who can put on
their own pants. I almost can. I just need a nurse to help me with my
ripper.”
The department of mathematics is cut in half. The Pure
mathematicians are totally incapacitated while the applied members are
coping better. Explained applied mathematician James Kazaragreen, “I
just didn't wear my tie shoes today.”
Until the strike is over, all classes are cancelled. Anybody finding a
wayward professor should direct him to the nearest bathroom and call

Some pretty awful material appears in this issue of The
Spectrum doesn't it? Well, in fact, it’s all lies. All of it. And
not only that, any resemblence to fact or to real people is
unintentional and didn’t mean to get printed. This special
April Fool’s issue of The Spectrum was compiled specifically
to produce laughter, nausea or a combination thereof.
Oh, wait a minute. The advertisements are for real. No

The question of student organizations leaving Squire Hall and
moving out to that somewhat God forsaken campus in the boondocks
of Amherst where little grows and nothing loves (and probably never
will) is a difficult one
but then again aren't all problems difficult
when we disseminate the qualities and quantities of life (whatever the
hell that means)
since various queries come from within and others
from without in as much as there is absolutely no room for so many of
these student groups and probably never will be considering the
vascillations which so beset States such as this one which happens to

To the Editor,
What can I say? It’s been so long since 1 don’t
khow when, I just saw her with my best friend. But
really, you know, like who are all these people and
vhat do they vant out, of my life? Vhy is today
different than any other day? Veil, I don’t lik$ doing
things just for fun, but we made some money on this
one, so fuck you. Life is but a dream, it’s what you
make it; always try to give, don’t ever take it.
After that, the two woke up with the sun and
hitchhiked to Katmandu; that’s all they really
wanted to do. And they did it. So come on, get out
of here, you know what I irtean. You don’t? She’s

filing her nails while they’re dragging the lake
Everything means less than zero.
The nicest part about this University is that
nobody really cares if you live or if you die. Know
vhat I mean? You don’t? Veil, vhenever one of us
bowls good, the other one bowls bad. It’s great.
Go pick your corporate nose.
The defog machine is beginning to work on
certain portions of gray matter, but it doesn’t really
matter. Nothing matters. I want to go home. I’m
leaving today, 1 left yesterday. I never was.
Vith all due respect,

�Polanski set to film
is
the Carters’ lifestyle
Veteran film director Roman Polanski has accepted President
Jimmy Carter’s request to make a film protraying the life style of
America’s First Family. The ubiquitous Hollywood touch is evident in
the casting of actors and actresses for the film. Polanski will appear in
the role of Amy Carter’s private tutor while Amy will play her loveable
self. Billy Carter, the President’s closest advisor on matters involving
etiquette and social decorum, will play a parapelegic alcoholic who
cleans the White House kitchen.
Although still in the formulative stages, Garter predicts the film
will unite the American people by protraying a family with a code of
ethics viable to families of any racial or political denomination. The
long awaited cameo appearance of Richard Nixon as an Electrolux
salesman will remain in the completed version despite pleas from his
embarrassed family.
The tentative release date of August 8th coincides with Carter’s
proposed tour of Lebanon, Belfast and the South Pole, and the date of
Nixon’s resignation.

Monster (Nessiteris Rhomboxteris).
Convinced that this is indeed some relative of
the infamous “Nessie,” The Spectrum decided to try
and get an interview with the lake monster
(tentatively named .Ellicotus Nessitus).
The first problem was how to attract “Elbe.”
After considerable thought and 14 joints, the staff
decided to use the traditional method; sacrifice a
virgin. Unfortunately, this idea had to be scrapped,
primarily because virgins are out of season, so we
went to our alternate plan of playing bagpipe music
in an effort to appeal to the creature’s Scottish

background. Much to our dismay, we failed to find a
bagpipe, so we settled for having our Managing
Editors sing two choruses of “Stayin’ Alive.”
We were successful; not only did we get the
monster’s attention but we also managed to break
174 windows, deafen nine dogs, and waken most of
the dead. So, here is an exclusive interview with Elbe
the Lake Monster, done by our most brilliant,
capable and gullible reporter, the late Harvey

there are moans and groans of anguish and whispers
about some unspeakable torture called “The Mid

what’s Women’s
Studies? Amateur gynecology I slippose.
Harv: No, no, no . . . oh, never mind. Tell me, Ellie,
do you ever miss the Loch?
Ellie: Yes, 1 especially miss the females of my kind.
Last summer I got so desperate for a braod, 1
seriously considered raping the Bubble. And just last
week, I was surprised to see a fellow Scotsman
dressed in a kilt blwoing a bagpipe. I got so exicted, I
just had to come up to talk to him.
Harv: Did you two have a nice talk?
Ellie: No, turns out it wasn’t a Scotsman at all, just a
transvestite molesting a squirrel. But 1 wasn’t too
upset, I think I’ve become more Americanized in
some ways.
Harv: Yes, I was just admiring your Farrah Fawcett
tee-shirt. Ah, Ellie, what do you eat?
Ellie: Well, there’s not much in the Lake, just

cigarette butts, beer cans, my pet pirhanna and
Jimmy Hoffa’s body. Mostly I send out from Pizza
Hut. I like their delivery girls.
Harv: You mean they’re kind and courteous?
Ellie: No, delicious. There’s a lot of good things
under their skirts.
V Harv: So I’ve heard. In that case I’ve got just one last
question. What aife yoUf future plans?
Ellie: 1 dunno, maybe I’ll stick around for a couple
of thousand years just to see how the new campus
comes out. Who knows, maybe it’ll be finished
before the next Ice Age.

DIRECTORY
PROBLEMS
SOLVED:
Mixembaun, publisher of this year's Student
Misdirectory, has announced his solution to his
book's main problem
inaccurate listings. "The
addresses are all correct," Mixembaum claimed.
"The students are simple living in incorrect houses.
The obvious answer is for the students to move to
their listed address in the Directory. Then everyone's
—

happy.'

The massive migration will take place next Saturday.
Bandanna dealers report flocks of off-campus
residents panic buying red, blue and green
bandannas. Also, Hugh Hall, manager of Buffalo
Rent-A-Anything, claims he's sold out of trailers.
The black market cashed in on cardboard boxes and
football players found themselves in great demand.

Garrison,

and said to Pong, “Mine’s gonna
stay a full moon.” Pong glared
inscrutibly.

The action was impeccably
close, with both fencers barely
escaping menacing thrusts. With
30 seconds left in the regulation
bout, Pong executed the move
that has made him a legendary
performer. First, he spit on his
weapon, rubbed it a little, and
held it high in the air. It glinted in
the afternoon light and -blinded
Garrison. Then, like an ejaculation
from a well-oiled dart gun, Pong
rocketed toward his opponent,
impaling hum just under the left
shoulder. The stunned Green
slumped to the floor, with a
distinct frown on his visage. The
ever-sportsmanlike Pong said to
him, “Sorry to make this gory. I

meant to get your heart.” Then,
with cheerful alacrity, Pong
swished his head off.

&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;

Fraternities: joy vs, tragedy
by Bobbie Demine
City Editor

“Social fraternal organizations

are

defined

as

those student groups whose primary concern is the
bond of friendship among students which can
develop through a planned program of social,
educational and service activities designed to assist in
the personal, intellectual and social development of
their members.”

With this statement of policy, SUNY central
officials this year ushered the Greek system of
fraternities and sororities onto stale campuses after a
23-year ban. At the same time, just 90 miles from
the largest state campus, Alfred University officials
employed this same policy statement to withdraw
recognition of the 52-year old, self initiated Klan
Alpine fraternity. Klan’s assistance in the “personal,
intellectual and social development” of one pledging
member had; direct bearing op his recent, untimely

death.
Charles Stenzel, a 20-year old Alfred University
student, was the victim of an outmoded fraternity
ritual called hazing. Hazing is the practice of
subjecting fraternity or sorotity pledges to tests of
punishment, harassment or other abuse as a
condition of membership. It is also a violation of
both New York State law and the regulations of
most colleges in the state.
‘

Missing link
Activities primarily associated with drinking
were reported in published accounts of the Klan
Alpine hazing rites as ultimately responsible for
Stenzel’s death. Reports indicated that each of the
Klan pledges had been given a half pint to a pint of
whiskey, which they were encouraged, though not
forced, to drink. Further accounts revealed that the
consumption of other alcoholic beverages in varying
quantities continued throughout the evening. In
addition to participating in the drinking rites, the
pledges were reportedly placed in the trunks of
automobiles and driven around for ten to 1S minutes
before being returned to the fraternity house and
released.
While Courier Express accounts did not link the

two rites, informed sources on the Alfred University
fraternity scene have revealed that the pledges drank
the whiskey while being driven around in the trunks
of the autos. Upon returning to the fraternity house,
they were expected to have consumed the entire
amount of liquor. According to one student source,
this incident was standard procedure for Klan
Alpine’s “tapping night”
the night during which
the fraternity brotherhood informs prospective
-

members of their eligibility.

Great expectations
The fraternity had a habit of drinking to one

another, according to Ken Thompson, a member of
another fraternity on the Alfred campus. “The
fraternities all have a celebration on tapping night
generally a lot of drinking goes on, but nothing quite
like Klan’s,” remarked Thompson.
The official cause of Stenzel’s death was listed
as “acute alcoholic intoxication,” with Stenzel
apparently having consumed a pint of whiskey, some
wine, and an unknown amount of beer.
Alfred University Dean of Students Donald King
commented that' he ‘‘did -not believe the students
were forced or coerced to drink. But drinking was an
expectation of persons at the party.”
In response to questions concerning the
excessive drinking and their tapping night ritual,
Klan Alpine President Scott Townsend admitted the
actions, but qualified his statement, saying, “It’s not
a requirement; everything is up to the discretion of
the ‘big brother’.” A “big brother” is the fraternity
brother sponsoring an individual pledge during his
bid for membership in the brotherhood.
-

Disruptive and anti-social
The Klan, comprised largely of “sports figures”
and noted for its physically difficult pledging rites

and rough-housing, was characterized by members of
various other fraternities on the campus as violent.
Alfred University Provost Gene Odle expressed a
similar view when commenting on the withdrawal of
university recognition of Klan Alpine after the fatal
incident. “Klan Alpine Fraternity has followed a
pattern of disruptive and anti-social behavior over
the years,” Odle confirmed. “The last incident was
just more of the same.”
The retraction of university recognition was the

Last year, 81 percent of all
New Yorkers took their vacations
outside of the state. Thus, the
promotion was made to appeal
especially to those residing in the
land of taxes. “When it comes to
summer vacations, we are in
competition with other northern
states that have similar weather
appeal and advantages,” said
Rotman.
The most recent edition of the
promotion has several Broadway
acts like Stephanie Mills and the
'rest of ‘The Wiz” cast doing their
version of the theme. "There’s no

Rotman. “And,the biggest single

atmosphere.

by Harvey Shapiro
Contributing Editor

The one problem that all professors lamented was that
University-wide anathema
split campuses. As Provost for
the Faculty of Social Sciences and Administration Arthur
Butler said the departments of his faculty are split between
four areas. “Some are in Ellicott, some are at the spine,
and a few are at Main Street and Ridge Lea. It’s very
awkward to be located so far away from a majority of the
he
said.
that
the
departments,”
Butler added
split-campuses limited the amount of interaction between
faculty members of different departments.
Other professors also claimed that the split campuses
work against interaction between students and faculty. “A
travesty,” said Professor of Economics Abraham Haspel.
“It’s the most ridiculous system I have ever seen. For
students and faculty to spend one to two hours a day
commuting is a waste of valuable' time.” He added that
because of the fragmentation “there is no sense of
community here,,” and that’s “what makes a University.”
Another dilemma traced to the split campus system is
the inadequate access departments have to the library.
Departments such as History, Political Science, Sociology
and Psychology find themselves at least twenty minutes
from the largest library
Main Street’s Abbott. Chairman
of History jClifton Yearly claimed that faculty-student
interaction has been cut down by the three miles from
History’s Ellicott headquarters to Abbott: “Students are
on Main Street at the library, rather than at Ellicott where
our offices are.” Chairman of Psychology Kenneth Levy
—

-

echoed Yearly’s sentiment. “Here at Ridge Lea there is no
adequate library,” he said, “so our students are not around
here but are at the library on Main Street.” Levy added
that the split campus system has hindered graduate
students’ research projects because undergraduates who
once volunteered as test subjects “no longer wish to come
out to this barren campus.”
Not attractive
Besides the long-trek to the library, the quality of its
collection is now being questioned. Budget cuts have put
the library behind in its acquisition plans the last four
years, according- to Butler. For whatever reasons, faculty
members are disenchanted with the library system. Haspel
called the library here “one of the worst I have ever seen.”
Other professors said that the library was “not very
attractive” when compared to other universities.
. . . There is little sense of loyalty to the University or

of belonging to a community of scholarship; there is little
pride in one’s work, there is no spirit of selflessness . . .
This passage from the Main Sciences Review Report
generally describes the problem of low faculty morale. In
the past few years it appears that many members have

de-structuring of academics has contributed to low spirits
among faculty members: “When we moved away from a
common curriculum in the lower division, wc split faculty
up.” Low morale at this University is part of a “country
wide” phenomena that has spread across higher education,
he noted.
Not all faculty members are content to grin and bear
the University atmosphere. It appears that many good

professors are leaving Buffalo for other institutions and are
not being replaced by high quality people. The University
Administration has scoffed at the so-called “Brain Drain,”
claiming that overall the quality of the faculty is
unchanged, though individual departments may have been
weakened or fortified. Professor of History Richard Ellis
said that in recent years, “History has lost a lot of good
people and we haven’t been able to replace them.” Levy
acknowledged that the Clinical Psychology Department
which is in danger of losing accreditation because of poor

facilities at Ridge Lea
over the summer. “Twenty five to thirty per cent ojf the
program won’t be here next Fall,” he said. Levy wirned
that if the program loses accreditation, many more c*n be
expected to leave, including himself.
Levy is not the only professor looking elsewhere.
Almost every faculty member interviewed confessed that
they were shopping around for a position. This is not
totally out of the ordinary as Yearly noted, “Good people
are always looking for a better alternative.” Provost Butler
added that- the good people who have left here received
invites from Ivy League schools “and there is no way that
we can compete with their offers. While many people have
left, we have replaced them, where possible, with good
personnel.”

in sharp contrast the optimistic outlook for exapnsion

not so when you are contracting. Today, everyone fights
for money, both intra and inter departments.”

When
the
committee
disallowed her to handle the cards

accuracy percentage was reduced
drastically. Out of a possible 224

Pomerantz, who figured the

Apparently, not only did Cottrell
fail the test, but she is a less than
average guesser.
Prior to the committee’s
examination of Cottrell, she
stated that her gift enabled her to
accurately predict 48 of 52 cards.

�Body building: looking

for Mister Buffalo
by Joy Clark
Sports Editor

Why do some men, in a time
when macho is decidedly passe,
spend hour after hour building
their bodies
into grotesque
caricatures of masculinity, bulging
every muscle, popping every vein?
And then why do these same
super-macho
men train even
harder to compete in a contest
where neither strength nor speed
only appearance,
are important
a criterion usually reserved for
feminine games? And who are

these men?

the contestants from the men who
were practicing karate in a nearby

Health reasons
The contestants could compete
in three categories: Mr. Teenage

the

minutes before his appearance in a
bathrobe, black shoes and bikini,
calmly watching the contest from
the side of the stage. Thirty-seven
year old Jerry was among the
most experienced contestants,
having won over
135 titles,
including Mr. America.
Doettrel echoed the reasons I’d
been hearing all along for getting
involved in body building. “I got
into it for health reasons,” he
said. “1 always wanted a good
body and this is the only way to
do it.” Jerry has been body
building for 20 years.
The over 40 group went on
stage first. The six men were
introduced by MC Wolen and then
lined up side by side in front of
the
judges.

The
technicians had an unflattering
red spot on the men, so Wolen
and ' members of the audience
shouted directions to change it. A
bright white light showed off the
taut muscles, glistening with baby

Routine of poses
“A half turn

men turned to face the trophy

small, medium and huge gold
trophies. Why so many? Half of

lust who is John Gardner? Certainly,

I have started writing this letter ten different
times, trying to think of a kind opening line to
describe the biased, cheap, slanted nature of The
Spectrum's repotting. But how do you begin a letter
kindly when you are describing the quality of the
Editorial staff of The Spectrum. I guess by being
honest and objective (something which is unknown
to this paper) by just saying it plain and simply. The
quality of writing of the staff stinks! •
It is so sad arid such a waste of talent and ability
drat The Spectrum discourages so many interested
students by their cutting, low class articles and
Editorials.
It’s such a joke that in October there w*s a big
article on page two entitled “Corruption tai.R C.”
and' an editorial which depicted one Electron

he would write a retraction which was never written.

Managing Editor or should I say mismanaging Editor,
Jay Rosen does not like I.R.C. Good reason don’t
you think?
Staying on ay Rosen and his side kick John
Reiss they have their favorites and their enemies,
where the people who don’t agree with their
wonderful quality of writing are their enemies. This
is where Jeff Lessoff comes into the picture.
Jeff has fortunately for us but unfortunately for
himself voiced his opinion in The Spectrum the only
way possible, by utilizing the Editorial Page.
Unfortunately it is way too easy to be the target of
retaliation by the Editors because they retaliate in
every column possible. J iff was even criticized in the,
Candidates Endorsement Column by being airitlofs
and polemic in nature, and in the column “Exile on
Mam Street’’ he was called Antfl of the Hun. Cheap
Blow Rosen!!
Last week, Jeff Lessoff Was removed as Vice
Chairman of Sob Board I when his term was
supposed to end April IS, something which is
unheard of to be done to a past Vice President for
Sub Board. He was removed by Jane Baum and Rich
Mott with no excuse, except that they didn’t like
Jeffs letter to the Editor on The Spectrum

able to work with him. Flexible individuals aren’t

when our educations, if they have taught
readers
us anything, have taught us the formidable power of
words to sway and prejudice passive, manipulate
readers, especially when a writer makes claims to his
own innocent wholcsomencss. Gardner’s prose is a
lesson in this potentially insidious power; even
anyone unfamiliar with Gardner’s fiction would have
been able to tell from his Albright-Knox reading that
Gardner’s conservative moralism disguises a covert

The English Department is hungry for a writer
of Gardner’s stature because they need big names to
bolster a sagging reputation. But along the way the
EwgH«K Department seems willing to suspend its
vaunted standards of intellectual commitment. The
price could be heavy, dace Gardner will be in a
position to control much of the literary activity
here, and may even define a “Buffalo voice” through
his proposed literary , magazine. If Gardner accepts
the position, many of us will go into mourning. Yot|

Once again one of the objective editors of The
Spectrum wrote an article on this disgusting,
occurance, gave Lessoffs view (two carefully
selected, unfavorable quotes) verses line Baum and
Dentils Delia’s martyristic sparkling points of view.
OfCourse Jeff ended up on the bottom again. Why
wasn’t the fact that Dennis Delia is on Sub Board
included, so he secured his seat on the Board (which
is chosen by thenew administration) be selling Jeff
down the river.
Delia was quoted saying that the removal of
Lessoff was just the result of the orderly transition
of administrations or some nonsense like that. Out
with the old, in with the new. Well if it’s out with
the (rid get Delia out first. His ideas are reeking with
age (University Police carrying guns, etc.i Delia
wasn’t elected to Sub Board, Lessoff was! Jeff
Lessoff has the extra knowledge and insight into Sub
Board by being elected Vice President for .Sub
Board, chosen Division Director of U.U.A.B., and
also Business Manager of U.U.A.B. What experience
dans Delia have? WeU he was S.A. president which he
did poorly,-and he was athletics chairman. He
definately should be on the Board over Lessoff.

Right? Wrong!
Once again The Spectrum did it, they slanted the
artille against Jeff Lessoff. Well at this point I would
like to make a comment to the Editorial Staff. Not
only have you discouraged many good people that
could have been an asset to student government, but
you’be attempted to ruin and have ruined the
interest and input of many people who are
politically oriented.
Jeff Lessoff and people like himself have so
many things over the Editors, Brett Klein, John
Reiss and Jay Rosen. It is included in the category of
accomplishments. Mr. Lessoff was the main reason
why there is a Doctor on the Amherst campus, he
has also helped to improve the quality of Food
Service by suggesting a seconds meal plan which was
adopted. Jeff Lessoff also carried the load of
Executive Vice President of S.A. in addition to bein
Vice Pres for Sub Board when Andy Lalonde
resigned unofficially, in November.
I would be suprised if this letter i? prihtd, and if
it is printed I’m sure it will be in some obscure

corner of The Spectrum where noone will read it.
But, If I’m LUCKY enough to get this letter printed
on a choice page, where everyone can read it without
sarcastic titles above it, without: paragraphs being
cut, with every thing being spelled properly, (they
have spelled Lessoff’s name in an assortment of
ways, by accident, on purpose) Then The Spectrum
will have finally taken their first objective and
professional step and I congratulate them!
So Mr. Klein, Mr., Reiss and best of all Mr.
Rosen, instead of continuing vour hate campaign
against Mr. Lessoff reverse it and offer a thankyou to
him and people like him. An apology is also in order,
but I guess we couldn’t expect a high class move
from the staff of The Spectrum.

What sets Purim apart from other days, is the
rejoicing and the happiness of the celebration. It is
my hope that every Jew will see for himself the joy,

is a celebration in honor of the rescue of the Jewish
people from the harsh decree of Kaman, whose aim
it was to destroy and annihilate the Jews.

to his being removed as Vice

Lessoff could get the shaft once again. Dennis Delia
daims he was too bitter to be unbiased. Bullshit!
Jeff’s biggest problem is the fact that he is
outspoken. I was involved in SA one year ago so 1 do
know a little bit about how things work. The SA
Constitution is set up so poorly that it can be used
by whoever is smart enough to manipulate it. It is interesting how no one will explain his “bad

Upon reading the article on Jeff Lessoff’s
from hia-portion-'as'-Vice Chairman for
Sub Board I found it difficult to believe that it was
not a political move. Delia’s postponing of the vote
on Lessoff’s resolution at such a crucial moment
could hardly be construed as anything but political
chicanery. The excuse that it was brought up to
“impede
the orderly transfer of office,” is
speculative and his admittion that, under normal,

he didn’t think Lessoff could work with Jane is also
speculative and “under normal circumstances” a
person would have a right to prove, himself before
being judged. Jane Baum’s statement that: “I’ve
talked to a lot of people and found that this was not
the dase” [that Lessoff’s work was crucial or that he
was doing a good joblimplies that it was based on
hearsay and not on a proper and thorough
investigation and is therefore not overly “objective.”
From the article 1 got the feeling that I was
reading about the activities of a local bridge club and
not a proper government of any sort. Lessoff has
always had strong political views that should serve
for the diversity and progressiveness of our student
government. One does not remove an executive

Terrorist Circle
To the Editor

Terrorism Is once again invading our world, and
we are all caught within its web. Each violent act
perpetrated upon us is quickly answered by violence
of our own. A tooth for a tooth I believe it is called.
A vicious circle is created, and we are somehow
drawn in. There seems to be no escape. It is clear
that a call of the wild has been sounded, and now we
blindly heed its call.
In the Middle East, where there is a so-called
cease fire and on-again off-again peace negotiations,
terrorists have taken over the battlegrounds. Last
weekend, eleven members representing the P.L.O.
hijacked a bus filled with tourists inside Israel and
blew it up killing twenty-five people aboard the bus.
Many others were killed as the terrorists shot at
passing autos and pedestrians from their vantage
point on the bus. In all, 34 Israeli’s were killed and
nine of the terrorists also were killed. The remaining
two terrorists were captured.
Even more barbaric than the taking of innocent
lives, were the responses of those involved after the
incident. The P.L.O. called the raid “a heroic
operation aimed at ruining the Israeli-Egyptian peace
initiative and opposing Israeli settlements in
occupied territories.” Yasir Arafat’s Fatah guerillas
continued the P.L.O. response by warning Israel that
“the coming days will see more raids deeper inside
Palestine.” Israeli Prime Minister Begin promised hit
people and the rest of the world that the arm of evil
will be cut off emphasizing the imminence of their
revenge. “Those who kill Jews in our time cannot
enjoy impunity,” Begin continued, vowing that
Israel would eliminate this threat of terrorism.
Begin’s vow was delivered quickly at an Israeli
task force,, with an estimated 2S.000 soldiers,
invaded Southern Lebanon and destroyed six
PaleslnlSn bales. The number of casualties is
expected to be high, but no estimation biuret been
released. The world t feag,
Jull
revolution, and as it has been for many Thousands of
yearvit reiBain* in motion as it pulls us in by its
centrifugal force.
It is becoming increasingly clear that the circle
will always remain in motion until one side or the
other decides to put a stop to it. In the mean time,
Israel and the Arab countries will continue to trade
victims. Israel, with the smaller population, must be
much more devastating with their revenge just to
survive. And the Arabs, with the far greater
population, can afford the loss of a few of its people.
If no one attempts to stop the motion of the circle,
the end result will be total annihilation of either or
both sides. If there is to be a survivor, it- will be the
one who is willing to go to the greatest extremes.
Whoever is better able to exercise an animalistic
nature, without concern for their own welfare, and
devastate the other, will survive.
As we remain in the grasp of our primordial
past, we remain bound by the first rule of nature
where, as Jack London once wrote, “kill or be killed,
eat or be eaten is the law.” We must obey it to the
end, but don’t despair, the end will be so much
sooner.

disenchanted with the University, word is spread that this
“place is not a good one to be at, academically," according
to Economics Professor Haspel. Ellis expanded on Oils
theme, claiming that the reason why so many high ranking
administrative positions are vacant is that candidates
consider Buffalo as a last resort, (Currently, the University
is searching for candidates to fill the positions of Director
of Libraries, Dean of Graduate, Dean of Undergraduate,
Provost for FSSA, and Provost for NSN.) Ellis added that.
at present, the University has not come close to filling
those positions from the outside.
Haspel agreed. “The only people who are attracted to
this University are those straight out of graduate school,"
he said. “There are a number of other places comparable
to this University in quality with a better atmosphere for
teaching. It seems that there is a staffing problem here, a
sort of take what you can get atmosphere." Haspel said he
would strongly advise his friends in the academic world
not to come here under the present conditions.
Othe; professors countered the claims of a lowering of
prestige. Butler said, “Some departments have gone down,
but others have advanced. This is normal for any school.”
Yearly .said that this University is still comparable to
there has
others of its kind. “In the last two or three
been a downward turn across the nation," he said. “This is
due in part, to a nationwide retrenchment of faculty and a
general destructuring of academics
"

No leadership
lift Math Sciences Report was highly critical of the
administration, claiming the “unsettled conditions were
compounded by administrator* who, among other things,
wetfeginsecure.’ ‘lacking in wisdom’ anj) ‘devoid of
leadership qualities’.” Reaction to this indictment was
mixed among the professors interviewed.
It appears that a major faculty complaint is the almost
total preoccupation of the administration with funding.
“They placed exclusive emphasis on the building of the
new campus," Ellis said, “and they haven’t done much
else.” He added that Capen Hall does not offer any “real
academic leadership" and is “poor on academic

questions.”

The primary link between the faculty and the central
administration is the Vice-President for Academic Affairs
Ronald Bonn. Professors in FSSA were hesitant to review
Bum’s effectiveness. According to Haspel, Bunn took over
leaving insufficient
the job just a year and a half ago
time to adequately review his performance. Levy added
that Bunn has invested an enormous amount of energy in
bringing some cohesion to the academic world at this
University. “For whatever reason, there was massive
disorder here before Bunn arrived. Perhaps the Math
Sciences Report should have brought that out,” he said.
Has the University Administration become insular,
leaving the faculty with little input into the

decision-making process?Apparently, the faculty members
that the depth of their role in
policy-making depends upon the issue. On some issues
faculty members are consulted while on others, such as
budgets, they are not. According to History Chairman
Yearly, the faculty’s lack of involvement in budget matters
might be appropriate. “I don’t know if the faculty totally
understand budgetary questions,” he said.

of FSSA believe

Research and teaching
Provost Butler said the opportunity to contribute to
the decision-making process is there for the asking.
However, Jhe added, some
choose to totally
immerse themselves in research and teaching.instead of
getting involved in the Faculty Senate, for example.
Haspel, though, questions whether the administration
seriously considers the Faculty Senate’s recommendations.
“It has been my experience that the Senate’s suggestions
are not followed by the administration,” he said. An
example of this is the S/U grading policy question. Two

years ago the Senate made a

recommendation-which has

not been followed for “phony reasons,” he claimed.
Professor of Linguistics David Hays offered a different
perspective. Hays questioned whether faculty actually seek
out opportunities to involve themselves and improve the
University. “Instead of thinking about intellectual things
the faculty laments on the problems they are having,”

Hays said. “If you believe conditions are bad, that is worse
than If they are bad.”
Hays also admonished the faculty for contributing to
the low morale among their colleagues and the student
body. Hays said that it is important at a University for
faculty and students to interact, but here this interaction
has been lost. “Professors are guilty of alienating
students,” he observed. “The fault does not lie in a split
campus situation but rather in the faculty not letting
students know they are accessible.”
Tailspin
While the Math Sciences Report detailed the gloomy
atmosphere of the present it did not discuss how the
University will be affected in the future. Professors in
FSSA all agree that an upturn can be expected, the
question is how long will we have to wait. Butler and
Yearly both agree that a brightening of the University
environment is tied tightly to the economic situation.
Others said they can’t predict how long the present tailspin
will last.
Finally, several of the professors indicated they would
not consider sending their children to this University. It
appears this ill-feeling is a direct result of Buffalo's
shrinking prestige in academic circles. Also, mentioned as
factors in their decision Were the problems of going to
school and riding buses all day and the feeling that both
facility and administrators don’t care much for students
is the prime emphasis here,” said Haspel.
“Teaching is of low priority when it comes time to review
a professor.
“Under no circumstances would I consider sending mychild here, not with the three campuses, not with the
buses, not with the faculty and administration’s feeling
towards students. Not under the present conditions.”

Spectrum Arts

Boesman And Lena, currently in production at The Center for
Theatre Research’s Pfeifer Theatre, is the third play by South African
writer Athol Fugard to be presented in Buffalo during the past year
and a half. The Blood Knot, also performed by The Center, and Sizwe
Banzi Is Dead, produced by Studio Arena, opened last season to
excellent critical notices and warm audience response. In fact,
repertory theaters across America are producing Fugard’s plays
frequently these days, with the same favorable reactions.
Fingard’s works, at least on the surface, deal with South African
themes. He is one of the few overtly political playwrights to achieve
any degree of popularity in commercial theaters, which is partly

traceable to American political attitudes.

Fugard writes about people who are segregated from each other
and from society. He deals with racial oppression,** a mental and social

problem as well as a constitutional problem. Whaf Fugard points out in
his -work is that the legality of apartheid, though repugnant, is not as
much a problem as the personal tortures people inflict on each other.
Boeiman And Lena is the story of two hotnots, two brown (as
opposed to black) South Africans. They find work in any town they
pass through; they collect bottles for the few pennies deposit they
bring; and they dig through the mud of swamps looking for prawns to
sell to fischers. Boesman is a stubborn and silent rock of a man. Lena
follows him through life, ten feet behind him and desperate for
conversation. These two are in constant struggle with each other; and
trying with all her might to make human contact while the &lt;nher tries
with all his might to avoid it.
One night on the mudflats they encounter an ancient*kaffir, a
black man. He is aged and ill and does not speak their language.
Boesman and Lena battle over him. Boesman wants to send him away
because the old man is a parasite; Lena wants him to stay because she
*

craves his company.

The entire theatrical situation is reminiscent of Beckett and Pinter.
We are presented with three characters, three dramatic forces (an
introvert, an extrovert and a stranger) in a desolate spot. If is a
situation whicl)
described by the word alienation. Fugard goes
his British contemporaries one better by setting his character in the
social context of the real world.
Audiences often excuse Beckett’s surrealism from their personal
reality. Pinty's.plays show everyday life as filled with hidden and
unavoidable menaces. Fugard wnlws inversely. The reality of Boesman
And Lena is proved by newspaper accounts of the atrocities of
apartheid. The lives of Fugard’s characters are blatantly horrible, and
they try to carry on how’ever they can.
Best of the season
The production at the Pfeifer Theatre is a superior effort by the
members of The Center Fpr Theatre Research. Sual Elkin directed this
shining example of true theater with great ability. The pace seldom
slackens during the course of the evening. The ensemble performance
by the cast of three is no less than excellent. George Freeman portrays
the Kaffir wonderfully. He truly is a bewildered, dying soul. Ed Smith
plays the hardened Boesman with a drunkard’s grace
his performance
is taut and brooding. Lorna C. Hill is the spirit of life incarnate.
She
works and laughs and fights and dances her role with authentic energy.
There is no finer acting currently in Buffalo than that of this company
of players. The set and lights, designed by James J. Keller, deserve
special mention. The environment of the lonely mudflats is evocative
-

and moody.
This is probably

the most exciting theatrical production of the
season. Distressingly, Boesman And Lena has been playing to pitifully
small audiences. The reason
inadequate publicity, theatrical apathy,
the remote location of the theater, whatever- is hard to discern. The
play hardly merits such a lack of attention. Before you leave for
Florida or Long Island this Easter recess, try to get yourself to the
Pfeifer Theatre, 305 Lafayette corner of Hoyt, for this fine production
of a play written by a master dramatists.

Sue Fulton qualifies
for bowling nationals

present a forum on:

Bowler Sue Fulton has been invited to compete in the
Association of College Unions-International (ACU-1) Women’s
National Collegiate Bowling Championship April 9-11 in Miami.
Fulton qualified for the tournament by rolling a 191,7 average in
the nine-game ACU-I regional in Binghamton February 10-11, good
for a second place finish among the field of 85. Sandi Tice of Erie
Community College (ECC) qualified immediately for the national
tournament by virtue of her pace-setting 199.1 average in the
regionals, while Fulton had to wail to see if she had earned a berth.
“It’s a good opportunity,” said Fulton, who’ll compete against
22 other national qualifiers-. Fulton competed in the tournament
two years ago in Denver as a member of the ECC team. Fulton took
12th in that tourney and was one half of the winning Doubles team.
The winner of the national title will compete in the World Cup
tournament. Last year, in Iran, Lucy Giovinco (Hillsboro
Community College, Florida) became the first American female to
win the World Cup. A former Canisius College bowler, Debbie
Iwaniak Janora, competed in World Cup play several years ago in
the Philippines. Fulton said of her chances, “It’ll be tough.”

Lockwood Professor of History

Never before has a UB swimmer accomplished what senior George
Finelli accomplished this year. Several weeks ago, Finelli became the
first Bull ever to win the New York State Championship and he did
it in not one, but two events. Last weekend, Finelli picked up another
first
he was named All-American, when he finished tenth in the 100
yard butterfly in the NCAA Division III nationals at Grinnell, Iowa.
Finellfs time of : 53.1 was slightly slower than his time in the New
York State Championships. However, his time in the 200 yard
butterfly, 1:59.4 was good enough for a new UB record, even though
he placed only fourteenth in that event at Grinnell.
“Finelli did everything he should have done,” said Buffalo
swimming coach Bill Sanford. “I'm just as proud as I can be.”
Bull diver Michael Doran also cbmpeted at the Division 111
nationals, along with 45 other divers. Friday was the first day of
competition in the nationals, and it was jlso Doran’s birthday
However, Doran was eliminated after the first five dives. “Doran had a
sprained ankle. He couldn’t quite get the height off the board,
Sanford explained.
Buffalo’s move to Division III has paid off this year for the
swimming Bulls. This was the-first year they ever earned points at a

No Names capture ‘B’League
by Tom Luzzi
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The No Names emerged as the
intramural basketball B league
champions Sunday, after an
impressive 70-48 victory over
Control. The game ended in a run
away, as the No Names captured
the lead early in the first half, and
maintained it until the final
buzzer.
Leading the scoring attack for
the No Names was the hot-handed
Mark Allen, who tallied 24 points.
Glen Goller and Ron Krinz added
to the offense with 12 and 9
points respectively.
The first few minutes of the
game were very competitive with
the lead changing hands several
times. Control came out on the
court with a lot of enthusiasm and
was definitely psyched to play.
“We have a lot of heart, hustle

from the fans, but although
Control looked good at imtes,
they failed to capitalize on many
scoring opportunities. Before long
the No Names began to pile up
the points taking a 29-16 lead at
the half.
As the second half began, both
teams traded basket for basket
with the Control pressing hard,
but the No Names simply would
not yield to their attempt.
Control pulled within 11 points
with 7:20 left in the game but
soon afterwards the No Names
stretched the lead even farther.

Control captain Lou Krieth.
Control’s momentum carried
them in the early going but, poor
shooting eventually led to their
demise. The lead then changed
hands several times with both
teams playing aggressively. The
No Names ran an organized
offense and they executed their
plays well.
No Name stars
Good ball handling and clutch
passing by Jay Fieldstein* helped
the No Names to get out front.
The No Names began to pull away
when Fieldstein passed to Drinz
under the basket for two. Krinz
was fouled in the act of shooting
and turned it into a three point
play, giving the No Names a 12-9
lead. Control’s Bob Whitaker
blocked a No Name layup
receiving shouts and applause

Control’s

their ineffectiveness. Dave Fishier

guard Steve Silber penetrated, and
when the Independence defense
picked him up, he whipped a
behind the head pass to Weiss for
a layup.
Weiss picked up a lot of layups,
following passes or offensive
rebounds, and he had 16 points at
halftime. He was helped by
forward Ed Skolnick, who had
about 20 rebounds for the game
(no official statistics were kept)
and by center Roy Chipkin, who
also muscled his way inside for
plenty of rebounds and close-in
shots.
New tactic
White Lightning led 35-27 at
the half, as Independence’s two
main scoring threats, center Olin

were unusually quiet. “We played

hot shooting, and the- speed of
guards Danny Zahn andMiguel
Ramos were clearly wearing down
the undermanned White Lightning
team. “They had a faster team in
the second half. We started
playing their game, which didn’t
help,” said Weiss, who admitted
to being tired during the second
half. Independence also profited
from some strong inside work by
reserve forward Joe Hamedl, who
scored nine points during their
comeback.

But White Lightning reverted
to their solid style of play just in
time to regain control of the
ballgame. Weiss scored on a layup,
assisted by Skolnick to put White
Lightning back on top. Silber hit
two freethrows and Chipkin hit
one, around a bucket by Hamedl
to put White Lightning up by two.
Then, Independence lost the ball
out of bounds, and Weiss got open
for a short jumper to ice the win.
“We played a hell of a good

culmination of a week-long investigation conducted
by Dean King. In , his announcements of the
university’s action, King stated, “This move marks
the limits of the university’s control over the
fraternity.” He affirmed that the decision was a
direct result of the events on February 24 and 25, to
which the death of one student and the sickness of
two others were attributed. King termed the whole
affair “ireSsponslble and intolerable.”
The withdrawal of university recognition will
result in the complete ostracization of Klan by
Alfred University. “Klan Alpine may no longer
participate in university activities and may no longer
be listed as a fraternity in university publications,”
King explained. “Klan Alpine is forbidden to
identify itself with Alfred University in the
fraternity’s own literature, correspondence or
emblem signs.”

university’s Pan-Hellenic Council, a group of
representatives from each university-recognized
fraternity and sorority whose function is the
establishment and maintenance of a good
relationship between member groups. It is this
“Greek group” that is supporting Klan through this
affair. King, in an effort to set matters straight and
prevent the Council from forming a coalition against
him, addressed the group after the university had
decided on the application of punitive measures in

Klan’scase.

“My intent was to indicate that what did occur
was
as far as the tragedy was concerned
reflective on the total Greek system,” declared King.
“I was not there to condemn them,” he continued,
“but to encourage them to reflect on the purpose of
fraternities and sororities on campus.”
However, there is some hostility on the part of
some houses over King’s decision to ban Klan. The
group believes that the situation was used to make

Brill found that ETS scores are
not only poor predictors of
performance in schools but are
economically biased. There is a
direct correlation between family
income and scores on tests, he
stated. The exams seek the values

middle class but do not measure
aptitude as claimed.
Such cultural biases are

University of Rochester added
that about 25 percent of the
questions on a GRE in physics
were defective. Nader claimed
that standardized tests produce

The Stanley Kaplan Company

&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;

Moving off-campus?

Workshops to bring students,
community closer together
by Denise Stumpo
Feature Editor

Roaches, leases, landlords, parking, pets, parties,
all this and more can be
garbage, the neighbors
-

yours when you move off campus.
With this in mind, a groupof students, staff, and

community people have designed a unique program
to let students know what they can expect when
living off campus, and what is expected of them.

Participants in the April 5 and 6 presentations
will include an on-campus student wishing to move
off, an absentee landlord, a student who grew up in
the University neighborhood, a resident landlord, an
off-campus “transient” from downstate, a lawyer, an
the
and
neighborhood,
of
elder resident
representatives of the University Heights Community
Center (UHCC).
Each will talk on their impressions and
experiences concerning off-campus life. “We hope
that by hearing all sides of the issue, people will
become more sensitive to the problems they will be
dealing with. You’re not just signing a lease, you’re
moving into a community,” said Heidi Lewis, former
Director of Off-Campus Housing (OCH) and an
organizer of the workshop.

Slide show

Featured will be a slide show illustrating the
housing availability and conditions in the University
neighborhood. Street maps and a history of the area
will also be presented, along with a list of houses and
apartments. “People have to be informed about
what’s available so that they won’t, be trapped into
-taking the first think that comes along,” stated
llWM

Several landlords have become notorious for
their pay-thc-rent and don’t-bother-me attitudes
toward student tenants. These same landlords
continue to abuse students year after year because
dorm residents moving off campus for the first time
are usually naive.

Former Director of OCH, Rich Weisbeck, will talk
about the tenant-landlord relationship and problems
that have been encountered, Weisbeck is also
presenting the Life Workshop “One Man’s Ceiling,”
“a less extensive, more concise program,” focusing
mainly on legalities.

Joining hands
Student/neighborhood relations have not always
been the best as a result of clashing lifestyles and
stereotypes that have persisted through the 1 5 years

The Statewide boycott of the mandatory student health fee, could
be a success and the State Legislature may repeal the fee according to
sources in Albany. The fee does not cover health related expenses but
rather goes towards the SUNY general fund.
Student Association of the State University (SASU) Steve Allinger
met with a member of Majority Leader Warren Anderson’s staff last
week and disclosed that “there is an excellent chance the fee will be
repealed.” The representative from Anderson’s office, staff person
James Ruhl commented, “The health fee is a moot issue since it is
obvious that in the regular budget that will be signed by the Governor,
it will be repealed.”
Buffalo SASU delegate Allen Clifford said, “It still doesn’t mean
the fee will be repealed, but Warren Anderson’s block is the majority
block.” Clifford, who remarlced that student leaders throughout the
State were “thrilled by the news” claiming “it just shows what can be
accomplished when students work together. Finally, we stood together
on an issue.”
He attributed the possible repeal of the fee to the tremendous
pressure that legislators received in Albany from the massive
letter-writing campaigns and health fee boycott cards. SASU
representatives at this University have been collecting pledge cards
from boycotters since the beginning of the semester.
In the meantime, according to Clifford, Assemblyman Perry
Duryea has issued a statement that his staff is working on a
reimbursement proposal for those students who have already paid.
Clifford said that the proposal “is a nice thought, but unlikely.” More
information will be known next week,he declared.

Permanent ID card

distribution begins
Permanent student ID cards will be issued by the Admissions and
Records (A&amp;R) office all week beginning today. The new cards, which
will be required by the University libraries as of this weekend, are the
final step in the protracted hassle that began in the fall when students
discovered the ID card lacked room for signatures and birthdates. The
new cards include a space for both.
Ten students have been hired to distribute the cards this week.
University Police has also trained six officers in a special procedure

scan legaT documents for accurate birthdate information.
University Police Captain Jack Eggert estimated the cost to the force
approximately $320.
Six to eight students will be hired the week of April 3 to continue
in the new ID card distribution. However, students who are interested
in including their birthdate on the card., will have to go to the
University Police Office on Millersport Highway for validation, if they
wait until after vacation to pick up their new ID.

officials. Last Wednesday, a
temporary restraining order was
issued by a special terms court in
Albany, granting the NYEA the
right to campaign legally on
SUNY campuses until March 27.
At that time, a formal hearing will

Unprecedented move

SA budget hearings
open to the University
In an unprecedented move, the Student Association (SA) Financial
Committee has opened to the University community budget hearings
that will determine next year’s funding of student organizations.
The Financial Committee receives budget requests from
approximately eighty SA organizations and must decide how to
appropriate the $840,000 collected from mandatory student activity
fees. Of that money, almost $247,000 will automatically go to an
athletics budget because of a current four-year binding contract and
approximately $300,000 will be allocated to Sub Board I, Inc. the
student corporation that acts as a dispursing agent for SA.
The student organizations are divided into six categories hobby
groups, international clubs, academic clubs, special interest
and
organizations, SA officers and coordinators, service groups
Sub-Board. Each group will be given a brief time period to justify
budget requests.
The Financial Committee is composed of SA Treasurer Fred
Wawrzonek and three representatives from each of the SA Task Forces
Academic Affairs, Student Affairs and Student Activities and
Services. After the ten members have determined a budget, the
Financial Assembly will vote on the proposal. If the Financial
Assembly doesn’t approve the proposed budget and no decisipns are
reached before the end of the semester, then the SA Executive
Committee will be delegated the responsibility for determining a
budget.
Financial Committee member Lew Rose
said previous
administrations had felt that open meetings would prevent the
Committee from proceeding orderly. He explained that fears of
opening meetings included: that the clubs could try to intimidate the
Committee; meetings could be disrupted and the phrasing and type of
questions may be limited.
In spite of these factors, the Committee believed it would be
better to hold open meetings “as long as it could still function
effectively,” according to Rose. “The burden is on students and dubs
to keep the meeting open,” he said.

�Cordero case to go
before a grand jury

Bruce Beyer case resumes

A preliminary Amherst Court hearing on the fatal stabbing of
Ellicott resident Daniel Cordero has determined that sufficient
evidence exists to bring the case before* a grand juiy. Domingo
Rivera, charged with the murder, has pfeaded not guilty to the
charges of second degree murder and possession of a weapon, and is
currently being.held without bail.
Rivert,' who lived in the Wiihason Quad, was also found
mentally competent to stand trial;' according to a preliminary
psychiatric report. The report, ordered by Amherst Town Justice
Sherwood Bestry, revealed that Rivera fully understood the charges
against trim. He may also undergo more psychiatric tests later this
month, v
In a related development, the Buffalo Evening News reported
last week that Rivera stated to officers investigating the case that he
wished to talk to Cordero’s brother Tito, who had been visiting
Daniel from New York. Tito, however, had already returned to New
York at the time of his brother’s death. According to the News,
students had stated that Rivera felt he musl talk to Cordero’s
brother because of “dreams” he was having.
Cordero was allegedly stabbed with a pair of scissors by Rivera
on March 5th. Bleeding profusely, he was pulled from his room by
several students while Rivera was held until University Police
arrived at the scene. Cordero died later that afternoon in Millard
Fillmore Suburban Hospital.

African nation.
“AfteT several years of conspicuous quiet, the New York Times
recently reported social activists on the nation’s college campuses have
found an is$uc-to stir the social consciences of their fellow students.”
That issue is apartheid, the formal label for the official policy of racial
segregation in South Africa. “The protests are interpreted as a return to
social activism by a college generation otherwise notable for its
preoccupation with grades and job hunting and as a tapping of a
continuing social concern that simply lacked a catalyst,” stated the
March 15th article.
Divestiture
Demonstrations have been planned and executed from “Smith to
Stanford” the Times reported, although some of them have not been as
peaceful and orderly as the one at Vanderbilt. Last spring 58 students
were arrested at the University of California at Berkeley after an eight
hour sit-in. The incident at Berkeley followed a much bigger
demonstration that made national news last May. At Stanford
University 294 students were arrested at a Stanford sit-in in what the
Times called the first major demonstration after a decade of sporadic
protests against apartheid.
The segregation issue is not the only wellspring of the social unrest
on college campuses. American corporations are doing business in

South Africa leading to considerable debate between students and
trustees, on whether colleges should divest their investments in such
companies. The Times reported that three universities, two private and
one public, have sold stock of corporations dealing in South Africa.
The University of Massachusetts and, Hampshire College, both in
Amherst, have divested their investment portfolios of such
corporations. The University of Wisconsin
on the recommendation
of the State Attorney General
has sold $8 million of shares of 16
corporations. Holding the shares would violate a 1973 law that
prohibits the university to invest in corporations that discriminate..

Yale conference planned
Some colleges, rejecting the idea of wholesale divestiture, have
reasoned that what’s needed is
not evacuation
from foreign
business to influence South Africa’s policy of apartheid and other
schools claim that economic measures would halt the black population
more than it would ease racial problems.
On the other hand, some colleges have taken a middle-of-the-road
approach. Columbia, Princeton and Cornell Universities, along with
Smith College, 'have written letters to chief executives of different
corporations asking for their attitudes and perceptions of the apartheid
problem. Cornell has requested various companies such as Coca-Cola,
Xerox, and General Electric to “work for the improvement of the
majority in South Africa.”
Some observers see the South African issue as merely a vehicle for
moving politically, stagnant students. The Times quoted Brian Fay, a
University in Middletown,
professor and trustee at
Connecticut, “The South Africa issue is the most vocal, visible and
unifying one in terms of bringing together groups of students since the
Vietnam War.”
All this concern has prompted Yale University to invite more than
a dozen New England colleges and universities to a conference on the
subject of apartheid. Scheduled for the first weekend in April, the
conference, will enable students to view films, participate in workshops
and witness speakers.

This University’s open-admission Summer Sessions Program offers
students the opportunity to complete a degree or pursue study in a
field of interest in the comparative calm of hot, humid, rainy and
mellow summertime in Buffalo.
According to Summer Sessions Director James Blackhurst, the
projected summer enrollment for 1978 is 9000 undergraduate and
most students
graduate students. Stating that within four
participate in the program at least once, Blackhurst added that through
it, “better than one in five undergraduate degrees are completed.”
According to Blackhurst, plans are constantly formulated to
improve the program. This year, as an experiment, mail registration is
being offered in addition to the customary “on-line” process. “This
eliminates lines and affords personal attention to the student,” he said,
adding that there is a five-dollar fee to compensate for the expense of a
newly constructed computer terminal
Specifiying that plans for inter-campus buses

were not definite,
Blackhurst said, “We’ve considered an express bus which would run
directly from Main Street to the Academic Spine on Amherst and thus
eliminate travel around the dorms.” There would also be an “internal
bus” making connections throughout the rest of that campus.
Many advantages

Besides the usual year-round course offerings, there are many
special programs being implemented for the summer. Mentioning two
"archeological digs.” Blackhurst cited a course entitled “Introduction
to Field Archeology” through which students will be working on a
sight within commuting distance of the University. Ezra Zubrow,
formerly of Stanford University, will be teaching this course.
Also offered will be a Geology field study which will start in May.
Students enrolled in this course will travel from Utah and move
through the Rocky Mountains eventually ending in Wyoming.
“Many programs that can be done in the summer are not possible
during the fall or spring semesters,” Blackhurst offered. He explained
that the nature of the summer program is unique, not only because of
weather advantages, but also because intensive or concentrated study
can be done on a subject of interest as students are not required to take
more than one course.
Referring to the Summer

said he receives frequent comments about the “friendly atmosphere”
characteristic of them. He attributed this to the fact that the small
classes meet daily. “A student spends a major part of his morning in
two classes. Through this more cohesive social units are formed,” he
said, explaining that a session will last for 75 minutes. The coordinators
have also planned 25 minute intervals, between classes to allow for

“commuting or socializing.”

undergraduate library out there.” He added that coordinators are
working w'ith a number of “units” within the University to create
social acitivity programs. “We’re planning bookfairs andoutside food
service, as well as working on Orientation,” the director said, adding
that UUAB will sponsor programs, while The Spectrum will be
published onece a week. Additionally, the Division of Continuing
Education will sponsor a number of converences and credit free
programs. Blackhurst concluded that Buffalo’s “fine summer climate”
hopefully would enhance the planned activities.
The director referred to this University’s Summer Session as “one
of the biggest programs in the country.” $tating that students from
other schools participate in it, he added, “Other Universities offer
mostly freshmen and sophomore courses, whereas we spend 70 percent
of our budget on upper level offerings.”
For the 9,000 students expected to enroll in the program, 450
500 of the University’s regular faculty members will be kep on in
addition to new recruits Teaching Assistants, and visitors such as
reknowned architect Buckminster Fuller.
Having existed regularly since 1 922, the program consists of three
six-week sessions; June 5
July 14, June 26
August 4, and July 17
August 25. Courses are scheduled between 8 a.m. and 10 p.m. and
offer the standard four credits.

�EDITORIAL
ID, ID, ID, ID

Openings denied

...

A most banal subject for a Monday morning is the
disposal of the old plastic-coated, once controversial enough
to riot over, ugly, admittedly useless ID card, in
new, improved IQ cards with room for date of birth and
signature. We are allowed today through Friday to go to
Harriman Library on Main Street Campus to get these new
wonders if anyone is interested in getting them, that is.
With dnly a morith and a half left in regular season play, the
whole affair seems very pointless.
But, in the week that follows vacation, the special team
University
of
Police in Harriman this week to verify birth
certificates and the like for correct dates of birth will no
longer be on hand, but back at headquarters along a stretch
of Miilersport someplace. This means that during this busy
week of midterms and long papers* a time when many will
leave early for home and a most welcome vacation, students
must wisit on line to get new, real ID cards, with a signature
to cash checks and a date of birth to drink liquor. These
new. improved models will also allow us to use library
resources immediately after vacation... So, although the
whole effort is a waste of time and a grand product of
middle level inefficiency, it suddenly becomes more,
interesting and less funny.
Students will be able to get new cards after vacation, but
fewer workers will be processing them. Obtaining a card with
date of birth will take two trips, one to Police Headquarters,
not served bv inter campus buses. One point made last
semester in this column was that as some functions on
campus did require proof of identification, it was the
administration's responsibility, specifically Admissions and
Records, tp provide that proof on the ID card.
Now the responsibility after this week has been passed
over to students, who should not be forced to waste their
time on such a trivial and time consuming procedure that,
until this year, was never a problem. And although
University Police volunteered to inspect the validity of birth
dates at its own expense, and should be half-heartedly
commended for doing so, why is it the only group of bodies
on campus capable of doing such validation work?
The Office of Admissions and REcords should find at
least a couple of people to provide the same service after
vacation and the libraries should continue to use the by now
accepted worthless cards as identification. The current
situation could set a precedent for seasons to come; one day
Sheriff's ID cards will be the norm, students will need passes
to go to the bathroom, engineering licenses to shuttle
between campuses, and notes from their mothers to eat off
board contract.

Well, as usual, the March 13, 1978 article in The

half-truth type reporting that has become the
trademark of The Spectrum.
First, let me state that this reporter was
specifically told by me that individual campus mail

stopped, opened or read by Campus Mail

delay.

The playwright finds himself weaving the Court
Jester’s scenes into his Own life. He picks up the
Court Jester’s lines and stage prescence and spends
more and more time in the theater
for it is the
theater where the Court Jester becomes king. The
playwright hides in the stinging mist of the Court
Jester’s acrid aire. When the footlights beam through
the haze and the curtain rises, it is the playwright
peeking out like a frightened child from behind his
character’s velvet cape. The playwright becomes
captivated by his own creation.
The Court Jester’s rise continues on and the
playwright is hesitant to stop it. Each week he writes
another scene and the Court Jester dominates every
one
cajoling about with a cockiness and swagger
that begins to annoy the other subjects. Though the
playwright truly enjoys his creation, the fading of his
own personality knaws at him like a dull,
unplaceabfe pain. At tipies he considered killing off
his character but the majestic hire of the footlights
and the simmering image of the Court Jester on the
throne keeps him riveted to the typewriter and caged
in his character’s frenzied world.
The whirlwinds of success bring to the Court
Jester more than laudatory inkings. His lines become
increasingly caustic at the expense of those around
him and, as his act becomes familiar, the pressure to
carry it to the extreme mounts. He begins to
perform to the audience’s expectations and the
audience expects heavier and heavier doses.
Meanwhile, the playwright’s own life spiraling
crazily along with his character’s' is incomplete. It
dawns on the playwright that he created the crazed
Court Jester in a false image of himself. That image,
pounding relentlessly in his mind to the frantic beat
of the Court Jester’s career, is filled with emotional
voids and protected by layers of assumed
confidence.

�FEEDBACK

Splendid
To the Editor.

I have discovered the source from which flows
all of the iniquitous discontent that sorely ravages
this University community. None other than The
Spectrum. Yes, The Spectrum.
I admit that the reporting is good. The graphics
are splendid. The editorials are interesting. The
serpent makes its home elsewhere; the distribution.
Today, I saw a beautiful cherubic woman, all
smiles, gaze at the pile of The Spectrums next to the
Diefendorf entrance. Little did she know the
torment that she was soon to undergo!
First she tugged. Then she ripped Then her eyes
turned red in startling contrast with her white lacy

outfit. With the fury of an angered bear she wrestled
with the immovable yellow ribbons that separated
her from the glory of information. The crowd
cleared the area, standing back, frightened by this

marrow-curdling struggle.
Finally, alter several minutes, she gave up, and
left. Only now she was not the same. The angel
turned into a battering ram, utterly leveling all in her
way, including me, as the footprints on my face will
attest.

I truly think that this is a problem that should
be dealt with the most extreme rapidity, even before

Both of us, like Professor John Corcoran, are
long-time members of the ACLU (Niagara Frontier
Chapter). We disagree with his reasoning (The
Spectrum, March 15) that support should be cut off
because the Chicago ACLU voted to defend the right
of Skokie Nazis to parade.
Look at it this way: the First Amendment
protects free speech. What do “limited resources” of
the ACLU have to do with the protection of free
speech? What does the “avowed, purpose: of the

Nazi group have to do with the First Amendment?
What does the ad hominem argument of personal
suffering by ACLU leaders have to do with the First

Regan’s fears are justified speculation: industry
could move out of Erie County because of an
increase in county property taxes (or other taxable
revenues) needed to help pay the probable deficit for
NFTA’s rapid transit project. He is calculating how
much money we currently spend, and what an
increase will mean. Fifty percent of the $113 million
budget immediately goes for welfare and medicaid,
and to incure a 25 percent share of the rapid transit
deficit (that figure not yet estimated), it’s probable
he’ll lash out a tax to pay for it. Regan further
thinks that industry might say sorry, ao more!
Therefore, county opposition to rapid transit, at
least so far.

I can’t help feeling that we’re underestimating
something , . . such as the magnitude of possible
benefits for Buffalonians of the future.
Congressman Jack Kemp has expressed what
seems a clear understanding of these possibilities. As
quoted by the Courier Express (Feb. 24th), the
Light Rail Rapid Transit (LRRT) project could very
well be part of Buffalo’s “long-term economic,
environmental and sociological enhancement”
strategy.
“We are talking about a balanced

from

work, for the elderly to be more mobile, and to give
our young people access to educational and job
opportunities.” Also, for the inevitable commercial
development along the 6.5 mile line. Kemp further
states, “Now is the time to begin if we are going to
have a rapid transit system ..."
1 believe if we deny the building of this project,
we deny Buffalo a chance for a great re-urbanization
project; one that is future oriented, and been in the
makings for 10 years. One that could rebuild the
vacant, boarded store-fronts of Main Street. Fifty
years ago, implementing the building of city hall was
considered reactionary and extravagant for city
government, yet today it is one of Buffalo’s prize
possessions.

Buffalo nas a good chance for national
significance in the future. It will have one of the
largest universities in the world (if completed),
possess historical magnificence, and have entered the
rank
of those cities that
have
displayed
“environmental and sociological” foresight by
building projects like NFTA’s Light Rail Rapid
Transit.

The concept of student governance is not new,
nor has it been kept in hiding from the University
Administration. The President’s Advisory Committee
on TA’s and GA’s (Bunn committee) included, as
one of its recommendations last September, a clause
and aimed specifically at evolving mechanisms for
mandating that every department allow and accept
graduate students as voting members on all academic
committees.
The Administration’s commitment to make
these recommendations become realities is unclear.
Vice President for Academic Affairs, Ronald Bunn,
was evasive when questioned as to when these
proposals would be implemented. President Ketter,
although expressing concern for the cause, has not
yet gone on record in support of requiring student
input, nor does he seem willing to mandate it to all
graduate departments. However, it is within his
powers, as President, to do so.
Despite obvious delays in implementation, the
GSA is pushim, forward stronger than ever, to get
the University Administration to see the seriousness
and
immediacy of the issue. Petitions were
distributed tc every GSA Senator, with the request
that they be returned as soon as possible, to the GSA
office. It is each Senator’s responsibility to circulate
the petition among all students in their department,
in order to get the campaign down to the grassroots
level. If you have not yet had the opportunity to
sign, please call the GSA office at 636-2960 for
assistance. The need exists, the time is now.

�Death penalty pros Areas of Library to close

Prior to the move of Lockwood (Abbott) Library to the Amherst Campus, the
collections are being Tattle Taped. As a result, certain areas of the building will be
inaccessible to library users beginning March 27. Limited paging service will be available,
but to avoid delays it is strongly recommended that users charge out, where possible,
materials that they require prior to that section of the building being closed. Dates for
closing specific sections will be posted on the front door of Lockwood Annex.

and cons weighed

On Saturday, March 25th from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. a conference on
the death penalty will be held at St. Luke’s AME Zion Church on 314
B. Ferry. The conference, organized by “Citizens to Correct the
Criminal Justice System" and 16 other community groups opposed to
the death penalty, is free and open to the public.
Professor Bruce Jackson of the University of Buffalo, author of
books On prisons and prison life, will give the main address. In
addition, there will be workshops, a movie on the death penalty and a
panel discussion Vith Assemblyman Arthur Eve and Rev. Robert
San&lt;Mrs..%?4'-';-&gt;-.j.'.

The conference, entitled “The Death Penalty vs. the Poor,” has
been organized to raise public opposition to the revised death penalty
bill sponsored by Sen. Dale Volker of Depew and Assemblyman
Vincent Graber of West Seneca. The Assembly will vote orf the bill
sometime this week, and it is fairly certain that it will be approved.
Govenor Carey has promised to veto the bill, but because of much
pro-capital punisilment.sentiment among the legislators and the public,
the Assembly and Senate will probably override his veto.
The bill Will allow for a sentence of death for what is described as
“intentional first-degree murder.” Approxiniately 2,000 murders are
committed each year in New York State. Of these, about 10 percent of
the murderers are actually convicted. According to Sen. Volker, the
new death penalty law would apply in S0-7S percent of the cases. This
means the possibility, if the bill is passed, that 100-150 people would
be executed each year. Studies show that minority and poor people
from death penalty legislation because they cannot afford
suffer.
an adequate defense. Deputy Minority Leader of Brooklyn Emmanual
Gold said, “We don’t have the right to become barbarians because there
are other barbarians on the streets.”
Far more information, about the conference and the death penalty
legislation, call the American Civil Liberties Union (883-0946) or Rev.
Don Armstrong (886-2634).

FVS closes Squire section
The Squire second floor cafeteria is no longer
open to Food Service Contract students, because too
few students participated in the program. It was
closed February 6 because the program didn’t cover
the operating costs, according to Director of Food
Service Donald Hoise. “We were having a tough time
meeting this year’s projection and this closing will
save S6,000 this year and $18,000 next year,” said
Hoise.
Hoise attributed the financial problems to labor
costs and overstaffing. “Two employees were willing
to take lay-offs, one quit, and two students had to
be let go,” he said. However, he claimed there will be
no

more lay-offs.

As an alternative to the second floor cafeteria,
students will be entitled to $ 1.80 credit for lunch in
the Rathskeller or the first floor cafeteria of Squire
Hall. The other option is a regular contract lunch at
Goodyear Hall. “The $1.80 is what the contract
student pays for the lunch meal,” said Hoise. “If a
non-contract student wanted lunch, he would have
to pay $2.45 because tax is included and the
contract student has a missed meal factor included in
his bill. The average student misses
meals,” he explained.

In order to facilitate the contract students,
Food Service has instituted the scatter system in the
Rathskeller. Through this system, the cash registers
are placed at the exit, so students can pay as they
leave. “This should alleviate some of the lunch hour
congestion,” said Hoise. “In the past, this system
was done away with because students were ripping
us off, but now we find that they’re paying for what
they take.”
Students affected by this change are not
pleased. “1 ate a lot less on Monday,” said one
student. “Usually I get all the salad and dessert 1
want. 1 was still hungry afterwards.” Jan Metzger,
another student complained* “You don’t get much
for $1.80 and my break for lunch is short, so
walking over to Goodyear would make me awfully
rushed.” Cindy Urvan was irritated by the crowded
first floor cafeteria and also felt that she didn’t get

enough to eat.

Hoise said, “On Tuesday, I was in Squire at
lunch time, visible to students, and I received no
complaints from students. However, the manager of
Food Service for Squire Hall received a couple of
complaints from irate students on Monday who were
not made aware of the cafeteria closing.”

Gong! And they’re off. Off to
check out who’s purloining their
books of wisdom. As the librarian
scurries from behind her desk to

stand
in
you
your
bewilderment. God, what did I
do?
This is an all too familiar
feeling for those who use the
libraries
at
this University.
According to Directoi of the
Libraries, Saktidas Roy, “Manual
checking of books is a very
delicate subject.” Under the
manual system, a person leaving
the library must reveal his or her
holdings for inspection. Should
they not volunteer, the check-out
person requests to see the
student’s belongings. Most of the
security personnel ate students.
“We felt that student assistants
would be better than a retired
policeman,” added Roy. Some
universities employ former police
guards for this duty, he noted.
The new way to catch rip-off
artists is known as the Tattle-Tape
Detection System, manufactured
by the 3-M Company. A metal
strip inserted in the book is either
charged or de-charged. When the
strip is charged and one tries to
leave the library, an alarm is
sounded.
However, if the book is
properly checked out at the
circulation desk, the r strip is
deactivated through a book check
unit. The librarian simply slides
the
book
on
the
unit,
desensitizing it, and the process is
complete. One can exit void of
hassle.
Tact necessary
Before the electronic system
was implemented, the University
libraries were losing 6 percent of
the total number of books
purchased each year, an estimated
annual loss of $75,000. “Now we
are" losing under one-half percent
per year,” claimed Roy. No exact
figures are available on the
number of books stolen each year,
because students have invented
other ways to take the tomes.
The first library to use the
Tattle-Tape was Health Sciences
on the Main Street Campus about

Abbott, formerly Lockwood
Library, housing nearly a million
volumes and half of the
University’s entire collection is
without a detection system. The
anomalous facility has a check-out
person on duty who tries to
remain as tactful as possible while
carrying out this “touchy” job.
The main reason for the manual
checking is that with such a
myriad of books in Lockwood,
the costs of the strips would run
about $75,000. In addition, the
equipment itself would cost
$11,000. “We simply cannot
afford it,” said Roy.

The question of legality in
searching people has caught
considerable attention. According
to University President Ketter’s
office, it is legal to search. To

Stuart Lustberg, a junior here,
takes a rather pessimistic view of

they’re absurd, because anyone
who wants to rip-off books can

54-53 victory over the Bom Players in tha intramural basketball A
2T4.&gt;league semifinals.
Just seconds earlier, Silber missed a layup (“1 was going too fast,”
he said) and Boss Player Terry Diggs rebounded, only to be called for
travelling after he came down with IlH! hall. That returned the ball to
White Lightning with just three seconds left.
“I was going to get the ball and shoot it of dump it off to Roy
(Chipkin],” Silber'said of the final play. Silber took the inbounds pass
along the right baseline, 20
from the basket. He saw Chipkin was
covered, so he took the shot which turned out to be the game winner.
White Lightning played most of the second half without their
leading scorer Mark Golubow, who hurt his ankle. When Golubow sat
down, he had 14 of his team’s 37 points, and that placed the pressure
on center Chipkin and Silber to lead White Lightning back from a
seven-point deficit.
Chipkin chokes
The Boss Players built up their lead, for the most part, without
star forward Diggs, who picked up his fourth foul in the first half.
Guard Mike Bridges led the Boss Players with some long outside shots.
But after Gdlubow sat down, Chipkin became unstoppable inside,
scoring seven points in a row at one point. Forward Ed Skolnick, who
missed shot after shot for White Lightning, kept them in the game with
a dozen or so rebounds. Diggs returned, but he couldn’t contain
Chipkin or keep Skolnick off the boards.
White Lightning took the lead when Chipkin made a perfect pass
to the cutting Skolnick, who scored a layup. With about a minute left
in regulation, Cornelius Moore stole the ball from Silbcr and scored a
layup to tie the game, and send the game into overtime.
A free throw by Diggs put the Boss Players on top with 119 left
in the overtime. Frank Atkinson missed two freethrows which could
have clinched the win for the Boss Players, but they nevertheless held
the lead until the final play of the game.
Chipkin led all scorers with 16 points, and Silber added 10. Bridges
had 13 points, and teammate Moore had 14.

&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;

Ronald Bunn officially
announced to the Student Senate

“time,

and
availability of classrooms, and
changes to be entailed in busing”
will all be considered. “The
logistical

and
problems
involved
in
implementing the report will all
be studied,” said Bunn.
He admitted that he knew
neither the full extent of the
problems nor when the shift could
occur. “When the changes are
fully implementable is unsure,” he
said. “The committee will report
regularly and as the evaluation by
the departments
of courses
proceeds,
we
will see the
dimensions of the problems.
There is no way to predict when
the changes will be made

Bunn
that

number of courses that students
would be required to take while
attempting to enrich the courses

Bunn
said
that
the
Administration has decided to
undergo the shift away from the
four course load because “we

gams momentum
by Denise Stutnpo
Feature Editor

The spring house-hunting rush
is currently gaining momentum as
students
to
scurry
secure
off-campus living space for fall.
Traditionally, the rush gets
underway after students return
from Spring break. This year,
increased awareness of abusive
landlords and
poor
living
conditions has spurred students to
get
a
jump on
quality
accommodations.
“Last year we waited too long
and got stuck with a lousy,
expensive house*” related Daniel
Zahn, who rented from one of the
“notorious” landlords. Another
early bird seen scouring the Off
Campus Housing (OCH) bulletin
board asserted, “Now is the time
to look. A lot of people have
already signed leases
the good
houses are going fast.”
The OCH office at 343 Squire
Hall reports that about 50 listings
a week are being phoned in by
landlords, most of which are
snatched up within 10 days.
to
According
Housing
Perspectives , published by the
Niagara Frontier Housing Council,
more than 4,000 students live off
campus in the area immediately
surrounding the Main Street
Campus.
While some
1,500 units
(separate dwellings) are rented out
to students, it seems as if someone
always knows someone else who
used to live in a particular place.
Quality homes are often passed on
to friends from year to year, while
-

other apartments are trampled
through over and over. From the
above figures, it appears that there
is sufficient off campus space for
all. Yet, as many will attest, the
supply of non-slum housing is
limited.
Tent City
“UB, more than other colleges
in the area, is a graphic example
of the problems of student
housing,”' reported
Housing
Perspectives.
The
student
population has increased 150
percent since 1962 when Buffalo,
then a private school, merged with
the State University of New York
system. The number of dorm
spaces did not increase at the
same pace however, and it was
then that great numbers of
students had to find rooms off
campus. In 1969, tens of tents
were pitched on campus and used
for weeks to protest dorm room
shortages.
Due to continued student
demand, rents in the area
surrounding this University are 20
to 30 percent higher than those in
the rest of Buffalo, including the
Elmwood Avenue district near
Buffalo State College. The average
monthly rent paid per student
here is now $90-100 including
utilities.
Ironically more students will
be forced to live off campus next
semester as a result of an
increased demand for on campus
housing.
The
(on-campus)
Housing Office is predicting that
for the first time ever they may
have to reject student housing

requests for Fall. “We are guessing
that we will have to do some
temporary tripling, and even then
there will be a small number of
students that we won’t be able to
accommodate,” said Associate
Director of Housing Cliff Wilson.
There are 4,576 rentable beds on
campus.

Dorms well-liked?
Fifty-two percent of last year’s
dorm residents returned to live on
campus, the largest number ever,
according to Wilson. He thinks
that the increase reflects student
satisfaction, noting, “Ellicott has
become
a
popular
place.”
However, Wilson admitted that
one reason for this is the lack of
affordable off campus housing
near the North Campus. “There’s
just no convenient place to live
around here,” he said.
Those
receiving
housing
rejection slips will be mostly

late-admitted students. “It is of
desperate importance that Off
Campus Housing will be open this
summer because that’s when these
students will be notified,” voiced
Wilson.
“OCH is hoping to be fully
functional this summer with full
time people doing research and
field work,” said Publications
Division Director of Sub Board
Mike Volan. Head of OCH Joyce
Levin has proposed a $10,000
budget for 78-79; hopefully part
of this can be “stretched back”
for use this June, July and
August.

OCH could not function last
summer and this fall after it was
cut from the Sub Board budget
for 77-78. Recently put back on
its feet with a minimal $300 to
cover the spring rush and summer,
OCH will have area housing lists
available the week after Spring
break Interested students can fill

out a form and return the next
day to receive a personalized list

of apartments. Last
year’s

system
discontinued because it was
unnecessary.
Suburbs expensive
Although 95 percent of off
campus listings are units in the
Bailey-Kensington-Main area, this
year has brought some offerings in
the Amherst/Williamsville district,
most of them for one or two
rooms in new houses.
The three major apartment
complexes near the Amherst
Campus seem well beyond the
average student’s budget.
A

Editor’s note: The Spectrum

classrooms had been instituted.
“They still haven’t cracked down
in all courses,” claimed one
individual, saying 70 students had
been packed into one small
classroom during one of his
exams. “Teachers have turned
their heads,” remarked another
student.
When asked if he believed
faculty had been lax Foster
commented, “Some wete not as
careful as they should have been,
but we think this has been
corrected. They are certainly not
lax now.”
Two-thirds of the students
questioned claimed that organized
cheating groups exist. Names of

“club-21.” President of the

there is “no solid proof” that

is not unique to the School of
Management.
Many
students
interviewed claimed widespread
cheating is known to occur with
as much frequency in science
courses because of competition,
overcrowded
classrooms and
limited proctoring. “It is not just
the School of Management,” said
one student, “and it’s wrong to
pinpoint them.”

commented, “I wish they would

have done this four years ago. It
can’t help too many seniors now.”
Many said they hadn’t been
exposed to any of these new

procedures, while others said they
were not aware that any existed.
A few students felt the procedures

would have no effect.
Bonder commented one the
effectiveness of the crackdown
saying, “Whatever was going on
has now been curtailed.” Heclaimed cheating could start again
because
of
the
intense
competition, but that “it could
affect any department.”
Dean Foster doesn’t expect the
problem of cheating to occur
again. He said, "I feel the strong
steps that have been taken against
it will buttress any problems. I
would be very surprised if we
could ever shut it off entirely, but
we are trying to prevent it as best
we can.”

�Ketter rejects proposed move Turn off those lights!
of clubs to Amherst Campus Off-Campus Housing
by Kathy Perm

Spectrum Stuff Writer

Former Student Association (SA) President
Dennis Della's proposal to move all the student clubs
and organizations now occupying the third floor of

Squire Hall to Talbert HaO on the Amherst Campus
has been rejected by University President Robert
Ketter.
Ketter believes die space requested for the dubs
and organizations is more desperately needed for
classrooms and lecture halls, according to Assistant
Ron Stein. Although Ate President has expressed
sympathy for the request to move to Talbert,
academics are higher on his list of priorities.
Delia believes that the amount of traffic to be
frequenting the Amherst Campus is grossly
underestimated. “If we wait too long to fight for the
space we need, we won't get it,”‘he said. “A move of
some sort of another, if it is a complete move or if
we establish satellite offices js needed.”
Viewing Ketter’s decision as “the best thing,”
Sub Board Publications Division Director Mike
Voian whose office is on the third floor was not

upset with the rejection of Delia’s proposal. “The
move would have been bad," Voian said. “It would
have been like two separate universities. It was just
unfortunate .that we had to get rejected by the
Administration rather than by deciding by
ourselves.” Voian believes that the ultimate solution
for the division of the campuses would be to get
space both at Talbert Hall and to retain space at
Squire Hall.

Loat Union
According to Voian, the initial negative response
by the clubs to Delia’s proposal was caused by a fear
of losing a student union. This negative response
“made it easier for Ketter to reject the proposal
since he knew everyone didn’t redly support it,”
Voian commented.
Squire-Amherst Division Director Joyce Leun
also believes that the rejection of Delia’s proposal
was a good move. “Maybe now we can work hand in
hand with the administration for more money and
space to create a new union.” she said. She said
students wait a student unioti and “moving the

organizations little by little is not going to create this
union.”
Ketter’s decision was met with no surprise by
Community Action Corps (CAC) Director Mark
Szutillo, also a third floor resident. He believes that
since Delia’s proposal lacked the support of most
dubs and organizations, it was easier for Ketter to
reject it,” even though Ketter would do what he
thought was beet.” He said, “Now we’d be better off
trying to work with Ketter in getting the Amherst
Campus completed and having student activity space
allocated as just that.” As for the effect on the
majority of the students, Szutillo is unsure. “It is
anybody’s guess as to how much traffic will be on
die new campus and how much will remain on Main
Street,” he noted.

Depersonalized Amherst
According to Chairperson of the New York
Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) Lew
Rose, his organization wasn’t going to move to
Amherst the way Delia had proposed. “We weren’t
going to move out of Squire until we were
guaranteed the equivalent space in Talbert and until
The Spectrum moved with us,” remarked Rose.
NYPIRG was planning to write Ketter asking for an
extension of the two-year guarantee to remain in
Squire. “If space isn’t allocated now, we will have no
place to move in two years. When the space is
provided, the move will be fine,” said Rose.
Terming Ketter’s decision “excellent,” Mark
Siev, Vice President of the Jewish Student Union
(JSU), located across the hall from CAC, commented
that by remaining on the Main Street Campus, JSU
will not be isolated as it would be at Amherst. “The
center of student life is on Main Street,” asserted
Siev. “If the offices remain here we will be able to
reach more people.”
The JSU feels very strongly about staying on the
Main Street Campus because the programming it has
attempted on the new campus has not been
successful. According to Siev, this is due to the “very
depersonalized atmosphere of the Amherst Campus.
Main Street is much more congenial. Amherst does
not have a Fillmore Room or a Clark Gym to hold
big ev4ril$. Not haying a place to congregate on the
campus for an event will only serve to worsen
student contact.”

�Nationwide Hunger Strike:
a small price for freedom
Over 80 students took part in a nationwide
Hunger Strike, organized by the Student Struggle for
Soviet Jewry (SSSJ), to oppose the imprisonment of
Russian Jewish dissident Anatoly Shcharansky.
Shcharansky, a computer specialist, stands accused
of spying for the Central Intelligence Agency. He
was arrested by the Soviet government on March 15,
1977. On June 2, 1977 he was charged with treason
and espionage under the Soviet Criminal Code,
crimes which carry a maximum sentence of death.
Shcharansky’s wife, Avital, with the help of the
SSSJ, organized a coast-to-coast campus drive to
gather support for the strike held on the anniversary
of Shcharansky’s arrest. “Students in the United
States, Canada, Europe, and Israel have pledged to
fast to generate a major moral force, not only for my
husband’s plight, but for that of all Soviet Jewish
dissidents and prisoners he represents,” said Mrs.
Shcharansky.

Members of the SSSJ believe that Shcharansky
has been the victim of false charges because of his
involvement with other Jewish activists, according to
SSSJ Coordinator Steve Karp. The Shcharansky
incident climaxed a nine month period of Jewish
repression in Russia during which two activists were
imprisoned, participants in sit-ins were beaten,

anti-Semitic documentaries were televised, and
Jewish cultural events were disrupted.
. Following
world-wide protests in 1970, two
Jewish activists sentenced to death were granted
reduced sentences. Karp said, “We are hoping we’ll
be able to act fast enough this time to have
Shcharansky freed.”
According to Karp, the goals of the strike are to
garner publicity for Shcharansky, to provide an
overall education about discrimination of Jews in the
Soviet Union, and to publicize the Walk-a-thon for
Soviet Jewry to be held April 16 at 11 a.m. at the
Talbert-Capen-Norton Complex on the Amherst
Campus.
“At Buffalo, we’re going for a number group,”
said Karp. “We have over 80 people participating in
the all day strike and we’re gathering petitions to
send to Russian President Leonid Brezhnev and
President Carter for public pressure.”
Other colleges throughout the country have
organized hunger strikes. “Some students haven’t
eaten for a week and in Toronto, six students went
without food for 11 days,” Karp said. This action
caused the Canadian government to affirm
Shcharansky’s innocence and grant him citizenship
in the event that he ever comes to Canada, according
to Karp.

Jeff Lessoffs controversy-racked political career came to a bitter
end at Tuesday’s Student Senate meeting when SA President Dennis
Delia foiled his attempt to amend the SA Constitution and prevent the
new Executive Committee from removing him as Vice Chairman for

President for Sub Board, Jane Baum
Lessoffs resolution would have
taken the power to remove an
officer of Sub Board out of the

resolution for one Senate meeting.

The largest group of nicotine users are cigarette smokers. In a
series of large scale studies conducted in the 1950’s and ’60’s by Dr. E,
Cuyler Hammond and his associates of the American Cancer Society
(ACS), conclusive evidence determined that “cigarette smoking is by
far the most important cause of lung cancer, and is also a major factor
in deaths from coronary heart disease, chronic bronchitis, emphysema
'
and other diseases."
The ACS studies also revealed that illness rates among smokers are
greatly increased and life expectancy is shortened. Even though
ex-smokers live longer lives, the longer a smoker goes without smoking,
the closer his life expectancy approaches the life expectancy of those

Inhalable Virginia
From about 1492 to 1919, tobacco was commonly smoked in
cigars, pipes, inhaled as snuff and chewed. Leaf-wrapped cigarettes
were popular among the American Indians before Columbus landed.
Cigarettes with paper wrappers were available as early as the 18th

*

century.
Cigarettes filtered and packaged as we know them today were
marketed at the end of the 1800’s. At the beginning of the 20th
century, the cigarette became the most popular way of feeding an
hourly nicotinic urge.
Many factors contributed to the rise in cigarette popularity. A new
type of tobacco known as “bright” or “Virginia,” made cigarette

smoke more inhalable because the smoke could be drawn deep into the
lungs more comfortably. The sharp increase in cigarette smoking after
1910 contributed- to public health campaigns of that “era against
chewing tobacco. “The sputum of tobacco chewers,” according to
repeated health warnings, “spreads tuberculosis and perhaps other
diseases.” Most who gave up chewing tobacco undoubtedly turned to
smoking it. Today, lung cancer replaces tuberculosis as the number one

SASU John Dugan. “There is a
better than even chance of its
repeal by the State Legislature,"
said Dugan. He felt confident that
the fee will be dropped either
from the state budget or the
supplemental budget to be passed
by the Legislature this spring.
Dugan described the statewide
boycott effort as a maneuver to

Allen Clifford called the fee “an

in the form of a fee.” In addition,
most forms of financial aid cover
only tuition and not expenses
such as fees, forcing students to
foot the increase themselves.
The SASU unit at this

mailing of cards which students
may sign to pledge support for the
boycott. 4,000 cards were sent
out approximately two weeks ago
to dormitory students with “more

Because SASU here could not
afford the postage to mail cards to

every student, including the large
number of commuters, SASU
canvassed students in Squire Hall
with pledge cards and petitions. In
addition, SASU has spent roughly
$1,000 for mailings, ads and
forums to publicize the boycott

He also supported raising IRCB

Paul,

costly first-run movies with the
University Union Activity Board

Froehlich claimed that to .raise the

a disaster.
Executive Vice Presidential

too

But as much as I’ve abandoned
this early career ambition, 1 have
yet to lose the fascination which
the sight of a firetruck roaring
down the street, lights blazing and
siren roaring, arouses in me. The
difference now, 1 suppose, is that
my
interest
stems
from
sociological curiosity rather than
childhood fantasy. The plain,
adult fact of the matter is that a
fireman’s job takes him into a
world which most of us will never
know, on the job or otherwise.
That he sees in a week more
willful destruction and senseless
neglect than others do in a year
has become perhaps so obvious a
thought that it needs restating.
And 1 don’t think I’m alone when
1 wonder if there isn’t some way
of knowing the oftentimes
overlooked importance of his
work to everyone.
Firehouse , by Dennis Smith
and Jill Freedman, provides just
such a way. Smith, for those of
you who don’t know him already,
is the author of the best-selling
Report From Engine Co. 82, an
insider’s account of the real-life
activities in one of the Bronx’
busiest firehouses His most recent
work, a novel about the possibly
catastrophic consequences of a
wildcat strike by New York City
firemen called The Final Fire, has
been turning up recently in
bookstore bargain bins. Freedman
is the author (or should I say,
photographer) of Circus Days and
Old News: Resurrection City, and
her photographs have appeared in
numerous
and
magazines
periodicals.
Firehouse is very much
Freedman’s book; in both quality
and quantity, her photos tower
above Smith’s text. From the
urgent, other-worldly atmosphere
of a fire to the quiet, thoughtful,
many times, painful moments of
recovery after a fire, she shows a

and
imaginative
comprehensive eye for detail.
Some of the pictures, surprisingly,
are beautiful enough to qualify
for exhibition in any art gallery,
but Freedman’s purpose here, as
she states in her preliminary note,
is not to show firemen “as front
page spectaculars, but rather as
they are every day, in the
firehouse and out on the street.”
sensitive,

Smith, for his part, contributes
a skimpy text which probably
could have been left out without
hurting the quality of the book.
As it is, the text looks as if it has
yet to undergo an editor’s
inspection. He apparently prefers
the word “for” to “because” or
“since”; on two consecutive pages
I counted five instances where
another word should have been
used. Even more annoying is the
fact that Smith’s punctuation in
these sentences is haphazard and
sloppy, but this is the case with
most of the text’s punctuation. It
would be difficult enough for
words to stand up to the photos
in this collection. Fortunately,
Firehouse is more rewarding to
look at than it is to read.

and harmony in the Middle East? There is no
justification for the actions of these people. No one
shall benefit from these crimes. The animosity that
exists between Arab and Jew will only be increased
The mistrust that prevails in the Middle East will
continue to grow. The Israeli government will have
urther justification for doubting the Arab’s abilities
to insure security. The Palestinian movement will be
condemned because of the irresponsible acts of a few
fanatics. Peace is no closer. One can only think that
these murderers wish to sabotage any attempt for a
peace settlement.
What is most sad is that it is not the murderers,
the criminals who pay most dearly for these sick acts
rather the innocent, the young, and the poor, the
Arab refugee, the Israeli worker, and the foreign
visitor. They pay with suffering, poverty and with
their lives. If peace is to exist in the Middle East, if
harmony and peace are to exist throughout the

Real issues

The Student Association Senate made a very progressive move on
Tuesday by passing a resolution to bring coal miners to speak here, in
all probability on Wednesday of next week. Now the real story will be
brought home; these miners won't read from newspapers nor will they
relate television specials about West Virginia and Kentucky. They are
coming out of the mine and- into the school; no account of the
entire
coal mine situation can be as firsthand and real as theirs. Especially
those skepicat of their position should check these men out. Watch The
Spectrum for further details.
Such a resolution, sponsored by Bob Sinkewicz and to be carried
out by Speakers Bureau chairman Dave Hartzband, can only serve to
narrow the gap between University life and the real world.

I
would like to publicly commend the
performance of Pat Lovejoy, the S A Director of
Student Activities and Services who will he leaving
office shortly. Pat was always most receptive to any
suggestions I might make as to programming on the
Amherst Campus. Without her help, many of the

events we sponsored at the Katharine Cornell
Theater would not have been possible, I am
confident, from my previous experience with him,
that Barry Rubin will continue the fine tradition of
programming for the oft forgotten Amherst Campus
that Pat Lovejoy worked to establish.

United

that an American warplane dropped on a deserted
part of Sardinia’s southern coast approximately one
month ago.
Can you believe it

thought an accident was when a puppy used the
living room rug as a place to relieve itself. When a tar
is leaving Windmere Loop and some guy bn
Main

the Sabres game, that’s ah accident. But when
a
500-pound bomb explodes and causes panic
among
nearby residents (no injuries were reported),
it’s
more than an accident.
Blunders such as these are often categorized as
“military mishaps.” When the Arm&gt;r called a press
conference to unveil its first pilot-model new 59-ton
tank and the tank got stuck in reverse, that’s a
Military mishap. Officials said that when the tank
was washed for its debut, “water froze and impeded
control.” But when a 500-pound bomb accidently
falls from an aircraft taking part in an amphibious
landing exercise, it’s more than a military mishap.

�Gil Scoff-Heron:
music to think by
by Barbara Komaniky

Music Editor

Music has always been an elementary form of communication. While the
country is possessed with dancing fever, the utilitarian uses of music are oftan
overlooked While millions of sighs and tears emanate from our pained balladeers,
and urban decay inspires the drone chordmg of heavy metal blasts, Bil
Scott Heron is using his music as a red-hot tool for perpetuating social change. In
a straight-ahead manner, Heron attacks and confronts the hypocrisy of national
leaders and condemns the weakness that is draining the hearts and souls of the
people of the world
Heron and his band took the stage to an unfortunately small audience

three-man percussion section, seeing that the heart of all music was, as Heron put

Opening act Michael Murphy belts one out.

it, "the drum The drum represents three hundred and sixty degrees of
communication
All members of the Midnight Band entered pounding individual
percussive instruments, beating out the rhythms of the night It's roots are latin,
soul, jazz, African chants These are all native rhythms Heron's voice, a rich and
deep baritone, is like liquid, oozing around the beat established by the rhythm
section. Heron demonstrated how songs are bridges, performing numbers from his
album of the same name Each "bridge" was a masterpiece of
recent
communication, and no stone went unturned Heron topics ranged from the
"

misuse of nuclear energyto racism to government irresponsibility
One aspect of the lyrics Friday night was a dedication to the jazz form in
theme and performance While Heron's tone and range is equivalent to that of
any traditional jazz singer (AI Jarreau, Oscar Brown, Jr.) his choices are not
limited to short songs They are frequently drawn out into long musical
explorations
a tribute to the immortal jazzman John Coltrane, featured
Trane
all the jazz breaks that an instrumental group might have Solos followed from
co-leader Brian Jackson on piano and band members on bass, drums, and again in
the triumverate rhythm section
Heron's band got an unusual introduction About five minutes before Heron
and band were to go on, Buffalo celebrity "Boxx" got up to make a plea for
everyone's participation in the impending scene He needn't have worried. The
small-sized audience only gave more room for dancing. Gil-Scott Heron took
advantage of that too
he jumped in the audience and personally urged the
audience to their feet
It's a shame that more people didn't make it to the Century on Friday night
Chances are they could have related to the politics and danced to the music. It
seems to be again that lack of communication
Opening the show was the Gerry Eastman Orchestra, a large local outfit
featuring three different vocalists. Most prominent of these was Beverly Simms,
performing in the tradition of Flora Purim and DeeDee Bridgewater. The
Orchestra seemed a little ragged, and feedback problem's didn't help very much
The audience wasn't readied properly as the Orchestra came on with the lights
still up. A more organized appearance would help them out a great deal

Night to celebrate America

Managing Editor
No one screamed No one fainted. No one was driven
a frenzy There were no smoke bombs and no piercing
lasers. And no punks. We even waited for The Sandman to
arrive before standing up and cheering. But the few
thousand who came looking for America Monday evening
found at least a slice of California floating in the Victorian
splendor of Shea's Buffalo Theater
Boston, Chicago even Kansas we can tolerate but what
brand of cornballs would call themsleves America? Well,
three sons of soldiers stationed in London, England during
the mid 1960s unabashedly gave it a shot with a tune called
"Horse With No Name” in 1972 and were promptly
indicted for grand larceny
the supposed victim, of course,
being Mr. Neil Young.
Well, perhaps Neil Young will remember that Dewey
Bunnell doesn't really need him around anymore, although
he and Gerry Beckley certainly could use original America
member Dan Peek who left the group to pursue a career in
anonymity somewhere
So it was left to surviving members Bunnell and Gerry
Beckley Monday night to convince me that America Alive

loathe that word) sound can leave an audience quite
satisfied and even longing for more. And, though opening
act Michael Murphy did a credible job, I dare say that the
night belonged to America
Even as Murphy bounced his banjo through the lively
"Carolina in the Pines," America loomed: behind him in the
form of two elaborate rings of drums, cymbals and other
more exotic implements of percussion, and beside him,
where real potted plants rested off-stage waiting to wheel in

Beckley and Bunnell clearly take center stage with
believable work on acoustic and twelve-string guitars and
appealing vocals. Beckely's voice is the more intriguing of
the two and is at its best on the softer, piano-inspired

But it’s “Daisy Jane" that finds America at its

what is virtually a percussion arsenal. The band eases up and
allows Walsh to show off on the xylophone. During other
numbers he is chiming, cackling, whirring and rachetting
away with a smoothness and alacrity I found to be
unparalleled in my concert-going experience. Jim Calire,
another area product, does a solid job on keyboards,

on the basis of the dehumanizing treatment they have suffered. Instead of
money, the safe holds proof of their Union's corruption and misappropriation of
funds. The trio is now onto something bigger than it can handle.
The film's best feature is its candid depiction of the characters' frustrating

These workers despise the monotonous nature of their milieu and live out
lives of quiet desperation. They look upon themselves as losers and others do the
same. Cattle-like, they stand by the time clocks waiting to punch out. In the
freedom of the parking lot they race off as fast as possible, and dodge accidents in
the process. In bars and bowling alleys they curse their daily routines.
Despite the long hours each man puts in, he can never keep pace with his
debts and their collectors. Zeke Brown (Richard Pryor) owes back taxes to the
Internal Revenue Service. Jerry Bartowski (Harvey Keitel) works nights as a gas
station attendant but still can't pay his bills. Smokey James (Yaphet Kotto), the
lone bachelor, can't afford the lifestyle he leads and owes a loneshark one
thousand dollars. The enemy is clearly the system, one that is oppressive and
destructive. The only thing of value these alienated souls have is their devoted
friendship.

To my knowledge, there are few movies besides documentaries such as
Harlan County USA which give audiences a glimpse into the lives of the lower
working class. But for dll its good thematic intentions. Blue Collar has some
problems in execution. In his debut as director, Raol Schrader seems a bit
confused. He has trouble finding a consistent tone for this film: it takes its time in
choosing between tragic and comic moods
For a long time Richard Pryor's crazed

antics give the film a comedic tone
His disturbance of a union meeting over a broken locker has the mixed fury of
splendid wit and bitter contempt. But Schrader's humoristic touches appear
gratuitous when the movie changes in midstream toward a tragic conclusion
Fortunately, along with some skeptical and stagey plot conveniences, they seem
to be the only evidences of Hollywood polishing.
Nevertheless, if the humor in Blue Collar tends at times to steer us away
from the movie's main points, the distraction is minimal compared to the way
other major political issues have been evaded by Hollywood. Although several
Vietnam films are due for release, not one has yet to place that war in its proper
context. Our lone portrayal of the Watergate scandal has been a film that all but
ignores the event

park. Kowalkowski portrayed the slightly scruffy old codger
thrown into a frenzy by the insistent peeps of the pigeons
which changed menacingly into barks and roars. Finally, the
old man managed to satiate the birds' appetites and the
animal sounds died down. The harried old man drew a sigh
of relief

into the charecter’s psychological makeup. Gardner
quipped, 'This is a Freudian novel. I decided to write a
Freudian novel because they've fallen out of fashion."
Dinoeour fiction
Friday’s reading, from his sonn-to-be-published book
called The Art of Fiction, gave Gardner a chance to
elaborate on some of his theories on literary fashion.
Gardner borrowed the title from Henry James without the
least bit of embarrassment, pointing out that it has been
used at least tour times since James' book was published
"I'm interested in a kind of dinosour fiction," Gardner
began, alluding to both the size and the old-fashioned
approach to his work. Ha cited James and "early" Joyce as
influences on his idea of the artist as window. “Everything
after Portrait Of The Artist was a mistake for Joyce,”

Gardner claimed, and he proceeded for the next eighty
minutes to effectively deny that, for the most part, the
writing of such "Innovative" artists as Barth, Barthelme and
others will have any long-lasting impact. "You must keep a
fictional dream," Gardner said as much to the young writers
In the audience as to the already-established giants, "which
should be uninterrupted. After reading four words of a page
you should stop seeing words and start seeing a train going

or whatever."
As for the things that can ruin otherwise good fiction,
sentimentality, frigidity and mannerisms are the three that

Acrylics outnumber all other media, although there are

contains tome unusual pieces, like a tiled chair constructed

which resembles a group of woven anteaters hanging from

turned on yet.” Pointing to the extremely short length of
Barthelme’s collected stories, Gardner called the "game"
their most important element, and maintained that, with
few exceptions, it can't be carried on successfully in longer
stories.
But aren't these harsh words for one writer to say
about another? Not if you understand Gardner's attitudes
completely, they’re not. "Fiction doesn’t change that
much," he stated, "it's always about characters. We think in
the 20th century that we are so innovative. Whatever it is,
the story, the character, it’s been done

”

Rumor has it that John Gardner will be joining the
English faculty at UB next year. Of the two endowed chairs
which are currently vacant, one was held by John Barth. It
is, I suppose, purely a coincidence that if he does come,
Gardner would occupy the other.

interest in the painting. The work was awarded the Hens
and Kelly Award and is an asset to the collection.
Another successful painting, Billy and the One Eyed
God takes the viewer into a typical American living room
and portrays a typical American scene. John Brach, the
artist, avoids color, using only grey tones in the painting,
which shows a young man sitting mesmerized by a television
set. Light plays across the subject, illuminating him from
the direction of the T.V. The painting, also the winner of an
award, comes across directly and powerfully.
Unfinished technique
In contrast to these statements are examples of sloppy,
crude, lazy work. Queen of Hearts, by Sharon Paul Zacker
looks like a painting retrieved from a pile of rejected
canvases. The underlying charcoal lines, scribbles, undefined
shapes and muddy colors work together to make this work
an eyesore. Some might refer to the lack of technique as
"freshness," but I would prefer to call it unfinished and in
need of serious attention. This exhibit is significant because
it speaks for artists now working in this region. Modern
artists, as reflected here, have an enormous freedom of
expression in picking subjects and in executing their
perceptions. There are compositions of machines, painting
filled with space, stark building and cityscapes. Only a scant
three landscapes appear in the presentation, unusual
considering the amount of wild land in Western New York.

worlds and in portraits.
are shown in bed, at the
Baily-Clinton market, as alone figures in a sea of clouds, or
as an angel on a clothesline. The human experience seems to
be the strongest stimulus affecting the artists' work.
The exhibit is not always on a professional level but it
is worth a trip to the Albright-Knox. The 37th Western New
York Exhibition will be on view through April 9, 1978.

'Blue Collar'...

—continued from

page

14

Happily, Blue Collar doesrt't play according to these rules. A giften screenwriter,
Schrader (along with brother Leonard) has given his characters' scenes and
dialogue, which ring with authenticity He steers clear of presenting the characters
as psychologically disordered in favor of a Marxist influenced view of the workers.
He lets the background of their world suggest the basis tor the protagonists'
estrangement instead of forcing ambiguous reasons on them, as he did with Taxi
Driver, Obsession and Rolling Thunder.
The picture being painted is not a pretty one when Harvey Keitel examines
his daughter after she tried to make the braces he couldn't afford from a hanger.
The conversations of the trio are utterly convincing and appropriately vulgar,
whether over beer or after a night of balling and coking. The early morning
confessions and shattered dreams leave one with the feeling they have
eavesdropped on some private words.
A terrible price
I don't presume to know if automobile unions are as evil and dishonest as
this film, makes them out to be. They come off as slightly fascistic; placating
workers while maintaining the status quo and ruling with an iron fist.
Management is shown to be made up of bold faced liars who are exploitative to
the nth degree. When the three friends confront this ultimate evil, they Can offer
little resistance. They are. crushed much like a battered car being junked.
Blue Collar touches on what happens to meh who stand up to an unjutt and
mute system. Schrader's conclusion is that if you are going to challenge the
establishment, be prepared to pay a terrible price. An example must be set down
and the individual made to suffer. The only recourse, unless some wholesale
changes occur, is to accept your fate and do the dirty work.
Despite a few shortcomings, Blue Collar is an important and worthy film. I
think the picture has some urgent things to say to a city like Buffalo, in economic
peril, and a country like America, in the midst of the United Mine Workers' strike.
Someone should take notice, talking pictures finally have something to say It's
about time . . . it's about life.

between the "Spanish" guitar and "Afro-American" Music.
Each individual, they are not as separate as one may think.
The beautiful waves, for example, that Michael Gregory
Jackson conjures in his guitar work "Prelueoionti" show
many of the same sensitive roots touched upon by Segovia.

their friends who were captives in the horrible

I’ve heard that several spokesmen for the
American Nazi Party -claim that there was no real
holocaust, during W.W. II, in which millions of
human beings including 6 million Jews, were
mercilessly slaughtered. This, they claim, is a story

conjured by pity-seeking Jews, meant to create a
victimized image that will conceal the supposed
threat that Jews pose to society.

Unfortunately, they are not present to argue their

camps during Hitler’s siege of Europe. But I do have
first hand sources to contest the above claim of the
Nazi party Most prominent on my list is my parents.
They have not hesitated to tell me of the horrors of
the Nazi death camps, which they were shipped to
from their homes in Europe during the second world
war. They have lived to tell the story of the
decadence of human ethics, dispalyed by the mere
existence of the death camps, and the failure of the
world to come to the aid of the human beings that
vere being destroyed within them
My parents have passed on to me the knowledge
of how the Nazis, propelled by their prejudices and
the vicious forces of hate, became life-destroying
animals promoting decadence and ruin as they split
apart European families of “subordinate” cultural or
racial origin, and sent each member to various death
camps. Here, the victims brushed dead bodies from
atop themselves as they awoke in crowded barracks
where humans were piled one atop another. Here,
they daily witnessed and smelled the smoke of
incinerators where humans were burnt alive. They
saw these things if they were fortunate enough to
survive the daily rage of starvation, beatings, and the
degeneration of the human spirit and morale in the
face of hate. Many people in Europe claimed they
had no knowledge of the extermination of various
peoples in death camps during W W II. Did they not
wonder what had happened to many of their friends
and neighbors who had suddenly disappeared from
their homes?

The

perspective

Nazi is labeling my father, and others like
him, a liar. But, the Nazi knows deep inside of
himself, the crimes that he is concealing for the sake
of public popularity. If he is dispelling the testimony
of living victims of Nazi crimes as fantasy, then the
only way to prove the occurence of his crimes is to
call upon all of his dead victims. Yes, the Nazi has
knowledge enough to know that this just can’t be
done But can he clarify the substance of actual
pictures taken in the camps or ghettos, which depict
the wretched state of his victims? Will he label the
evidence of the horrible Nazi war crimes revealed in
the Eichmann trials and the trials of other Nazi
criminals, as mere fantasy 7
1 plead to each human being, please demonstrate
against the march of the American Nazi Party, which
is scheduled to take place in the town of Skokie,
Illinois, present home of many death camp survivors.
Either attend demonstrations in Skokie, scheduled
for April 21, the day of the march, or assist with
local endeavors to expose the perversity of the Nazi
party If you cannot do this, please be aware of the
presence of hate in our society, and reflect upon it’s
power, whether it is organized or on an individual
level. To be apathetic is to say “yes” to the spread of
decadence in our society. How advanced can
mankind be if his moral development has not nearly
matched his intellectual development, as proven by
the fact that humans were mercilessly slaughtered
only thirty years ago, and the forces which induced
this mass-murder have remained unchecked, only to
rise again today?

Guest Opinion

Editor's

note: The following was written several
months ago and submitted to The Spectrum by
EODER after Daniel Cordero's death

I, who have been exposed to University life for a
few years, have finally realized the importance of the

PODER

organization.

I want to use myself as an example of one of the
students who came to this University and, when first
exposed to PODER was “turned off,” It is very hard
to write of one’s self in a derogatory manner hut
someone has to serve
an example.
To this day 1 cannot be classified as an “active”
member in PODER. It is a shame that such a useful
and needed organization should be neglected by
students for whom the organization was intended. If
one should take the time to look at the
“chronological History of PODER” he would realize
that in order for the organization to be established
people had to

unmeasurable level of violence, frustration and

humiliation.
1 have learned to realize that this organization,
and others, will be the determinant factor of our
children’s education. If this organization continues

i would like to direct this letter to Daniel J.
Isaacs (“Autocratic Editors,” March 8th).
Mr. Isaacs is so off-case it astounds me. He

laughed at his idea about transcribing

to have the internal problems (lack of participation)

which it faces presently, the University system will
abolish the program with the unjustifiable reason
being “lack of productivity.”
I, like many others, felt that if 1 were to get
involved, actively, 1 would not have had time for
academics. That was merely being cynical on my
part for if every other Latino, seven years ago, would
have thought the same way there would not have
been a PODER Organization today!
I hope that more Latinos will begin to realize, at
an earlier stage, the importance of this Puerto Rican
Organization. It is essential that we, as Juan A.
Gonzalez
stated,
“Raise our conscience of
awareness” and impose upon us the fact that our
CULTURE is of much more importance than any
mere academics.
I hope that this manifestation of “The Belated
Bloomer” is not inherant in many Latinos and that
we continue to develop our minds and our culture
together in our struggle for FREEDOM and
recognition in a society so predetermined to deny us
that RIGHT!

The first thing that confuses me is why he
brought my mispelled (!) name into the picture. He
is obviously so behind the times that he doesn’t
realize that 1 resigned my position as Campus Editor
weeks before the election. My conversations with
John Reiss were merely social. Any comments that I
made at that time were my own
not the voice of
The Spectrum.
If Mr. Isaacs were a bit more informed, he
would have also realized that I am totally opposed to
continuing The Spectrum endorsement system as it
exists today. I believe too much control lies in the
hands of four editors and not enough care is taken in
deciding the best candidates. 1 was appalled to
overhear my former colleagues question their
-

endorsement of Lori Pasternak over Scott Jiusto.
With that much power in their hands, I think they
should have been absolutely positive about all the
candidates they chose to endorse. How does that
strike you, Mr. Isaacs?
Before you decide to misrepresent me or anyone
else, I suggest you learn a little more about
journalism. Namely, spelling names correctly and
trying to come a bit closer to the truth. Maybe then
you can solve your problems when dealing with
‘'narrowminded, elitist and arrogant” campus
editors.

the United States.
Throughout the duration of
the strike, government coal
reserves estimates have been
updated, indicating that there is a
longer supply then had previously
been assumed.
Hie three major issues of one
of the bitterist national strikes in
years have been: health benefits,
pension benefits and the right to
stage wildcat strikes.
Miners have enjoyed “womb to
tomb” free medical care under
former contracts. The newly
offered package, if ratified, would
force the miners to pay sizeable
sums for health benefits.
Another major obstacle to
union ratification is the proposed
pension plan. Under the terms of
the agreement, the industry has
proposed that recently retired
miners would receive larger
pensions than those who retired
several years ago. The UMW has
previously approved a resolution
calling for equity in pension
benefits for all retired miners.

•1 '

However, the strike has been
prolonged due to previous BCOA
offers which allow disciplinary
measures to be taken &lt; against
individuals who participate in
wildcat strikes. Under these
rejected proposals, leaders of such
strikes could be fired, and those
who willfully take part in the
proceedings would be heavily
fined for each day of work

missed.
Although the first two issues
are

pecuniary, miners feel so

strongly about the right to wildcat
particularly against hazardous
working conditions
that it is
considered to be “unnegotiable.”

Sub priced subs
Bozek explained that the early
closings were due to a new “labor
conscious” student supervisor,
“Seeing a lack of business and idle
employees, he decided to close
early. In future, we will post signs
indicating a change

of hours.”

Hartzband then asked if the
reason sub prices were higher at
night was to compensate for
afternoon losses. Hosie firmly
denied the suggestion. He claimed
that sub prices are the same in all
units at all times, and that after
checking with local competitive
establishments, in regard to the
three most popular subs, the sub
shop is underpriced. Hosie did
admit that losses were being
experienced during the day, but
“we have changes in mind for
next year to relieve this.”
Because of the additional
eleven days of school next year,
Hosie revealed that there will be a

�Expansion in the works

WIRC, crippled with budget
woes, looks to thefuture
by John M. Glionna
Spectrum Staff Writer

WIRC,

the

up-tempo,

progressive rock radio station of
the Main Street residence halls, is
looking to develop into the voice
of the student body. If the proper
staff and funding can be obtained,
WIRC feels ready to assume an
integral role in student affairs on
both the Amherst and Main Street
campuses.
A minimal

$1,000

budget

allocated by the Inter-Residence
Council (IRC) has forced the
station to operate with only the
'bare essentials" of a radio
station. Station Manager Michael
Kuprijanow said, “Various pieces
of equipment alone go for more

than $1,000” Kiprfjanow and
Programing
Director Harold
Koslowski have not only filled the
aforementioned positions, but

also served as chief engineer,
cordmator, disc jockey, secretary,
and occasionally janitor.

“We’ve been looking for good
deals,” said Kuprijanow, “and so
far we’ve been lucky to obtain a
quality transmitter for $675 and
two braodcast quality turntables
for $600 but a lot of our other
equipment just isn’t up to par.”
He stressed that with a radio
station you get what you pay for.
“When you compromise on
equipment like Sony or Radio
Shack, the quality of sound is
passed
on to the listener,”
Kuprijanow said.
Ma bell bills
For the next fiscal year, the
station is requesting a tentative
budget of about 118,000 to carry
out its planned expansion which

includes rjnnovation of present
headquarters in room
102 of
Goodyear Hall. A set of master
plans has been drawn up and
shown
t&lt;|j; various University
officials for more adequate use of
this allotted space. “We are
planning to build a second studio
for recording commercials and
broadcasting news, a record
library, and a reception room,”
said Kuprjjanow.

“The problem with reaching

throughout the Quads.” He also
stressed that phone lines are also
expensive. “Bell Telephone,” he
said, “has expressed a desire to rip

us off. We’ve looked into a
microwave system but a license is
needed for that and so far the
University has been hesitant to
grant us permission to apply for
that.”

Learning about radio
WIRC serves over 900 people
the Goodyear and Clement

Halls, and with the current
addition of Schoelkopf Hall it will
have a potential listening audience
of over 1,100 students. Also
included in future plans is a
projected airing from Squire Hall.
The station, successor of the
defunct WIRR, employs a
voluntary staff of 25 disc jockeys.
“Our
main
function,” insists
Kuprijanow, “is helping people
learn about radio, learn the skills
of being a disc jockey and to help
them become familiar with the

WE RE GONNA BE IN PICTURES: Accomplished actor James
Caan will make hit directing debut Hi Buffalo at MGM productions
begins filming 'Hide In Plain Sight' here.

Caan to direct

And it’s say hello to
Hollywood, Buffalo
Show biz will be hitting the Buffalo vicinity in mid-April when
renowned actor James Caan begins filming his directing debut. The
crew of the film will be here for two months. Filming will take
place around the Amherst, Tonawanda and downtown areas.

“Hide In Plain Sight,” an MGM production, will be based on
the true story of Buffalonian Thomas Leonhard’s search to find his
children after their stepfather became an informant on the local
Cosa Nostra. The quest to uncover the real identities of the
children, who were given new lives by the Federal Witness
Protection Program, lasted eight years. Leonhard eventually took
his battle to gain custody of his offspring to the Supreme Court.
Caan, known primarily for his roles in The Godfather Brian's
Song and The Gambler, was in Buffalo for two days in February to
scout for locations. Potential movie sites include City Hall, the
Dunlop Tire Corporation plant in Tonawanda and the offices of the
Buffalo Evening News. The budget of “Hide In Plain Sight” is
estimated to be between $1.5 and 2 million, an investment
expected to provide a monetary boost to the Buffalo economy. The
casting is still incomplete and thus far, only Caan has a known role.
Extras will be taken from the area.
Originally, Caan was unsure about shooting on location. The
film is being made on a relatively low budget and since thrift is a
key element, the director was wary of taking any financial risks
with unexperienced union help here. Filming interior scenes in
Hollywood and just outdoor sequences in Buffalo was at one time
considered.

�Wharton questions call for
more vocational education
Chancellor of the SUNY system, Clifton
even
Wharton, has expressed “some skepticism
grave doubts” over what he described as “a tidal
wave of new enthusiasm for vocational and career
education.” 1
Wharton; speaking here before the Third
National Conference on Career Education in Detroit,
said that while he could support the trend “to a
limited extent,” there were a number of reasons for
his “reluctance to jump on the bandwagon.”
Wharton said he recognized that the growth of
career education during the past five or six years
“seems to reflect a new mood in our country,” and
“has been one of the significant developments of
American education in the 1970s.” Wharton
appeared to favor more traditional broad-based
education and claimed that American business holds
the same view in searching for college graduates.
He expressed the fear that career education
is education with a low ceiling. It may help get
that first job or position, but actually retard personal
growth and work opportunities over the long haul. I
worry a great deal that it is giving higher education a

skills of learning, those habits of though, those
open-minded sensibilities, those core subjects that
best allow people to go on learning, go on stretching
their minds and their dreams and their lives.”
Wharton said that while the concept of training
people for careers could be traced back to the
earliest universities in Western civilization, “career
education” as such has not been adequately defined.
The SUNY chancellor contended that while
many of its strongest advocates stress that is is not
vocational education, definitions tend to be very
broad and many times vague.
“It often seems to me,” Wharton commented,
“that career education is at bottom a spirit, a mood,
a vague sense that all education ought to be merely
related to manpower needs and the demands of the

Pellom has little regret about

&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;

Since 1970 more than 1,000
coal miners have died of

attorney with the Center for Law

in coal mine health and safety, in

frequently have received no
formal safety training whatsoever.
Beginning March 9, however,
federal legislation will require a
minimum of 40 hours training for
all new miners. “It’s a first
faltering step,” says Galloway.
“And we’re still far behind West
European nations.”
Yet, even with better federal
legislation, Galloway insists
“federal inspection people can
never substitute for the right of
miners to withdraw” from a
situation they believe is unsafe.
He pointed out that federal
inspectors are in the mines only
three percent of the time.
Consequently, he
says,
“Workers must have the right to
withdraw from the mines. And
they must be protected from

withdraw.”

The $25 question: What

said Harry Spindler, of the SUNY
Finance and Business office in
Albany, “virtually no student

Spindler explained that “the

is simply an add-on to tuition to
cover these expenses,” according

Delia, out-going President of

“There is no real accurate

actual use of the fee. He suggested
that it is collected for a stated

According to a State University

According to Harry Spindler,
“Governor Carey has proposed

Chabad House's Rabbi Greenberg addresses memorial service gathering.
The loss of 37 worlds should serve as an inspiration.

Fountain area

Memorial service is
held for slain Israelis
A couple hundred people gathered by the Squire Fountain area on
Monday afternoon for a brief but potent memorial service for the 37
Israelis slain in Saturday’s attack on a tourist bus by A1 Fatah guerillas.
76 people were wounded in the surprise attack. The New York Times
reported on Monday that Yasir Arafat, head of the Palestinian
Liberation Organization (PLO), A1 Fatah’s umbrella group, approved
the raid, according to a close source. All of the 11 gunmen have been
reported either captured or killed.
The memorial ceremony was organized by University-affiliated
the Jewish Student Union (JSU), Hillel House and
organizations
Chabad House. JSU Vice President Mark Siev explained that the
organizers felt the ceremony should be held Monday because the
impact and spontaneity were more important than affecting mass
numbers of people. Even so, many people watched and many more
stopped on their way to class to listen to the 30-minute service.

Attempt to prevent peace
Chairman of the Council of Jewish Organizations Avi Granot told
the audience that “the main reason the terrorists came to Israel was to
try and stop peace negotiations.” Granot retold the story of the
slayings, detailing that the woman who was killed after giving
directions to the guerillas was an American Jew, the niece of Senator
Abraham Ribicoff (R., Conn.). Her body is being flown back to this

country.
Rabbi Wolfe from Hillel Houje said prayers in Hebrew and then
gave a short speech saying the terrorists are “inhuman” and “there will
be reprisals.”
Chabad House Rabbi Greenberg said, “We are not here only to
mourn the loss of 37 worlds but their memory should serve as an
inspiration to us.” Greenberg said that two things can be learned
Jewish people should realize there is a Jewish spark within them and
they should translate that spark into action. He stressed that “we must
reaffirm our own Jewishness.”

Protest Skokie
Associate Director of the Jewish National Fund Samuel Prince
sang a Hebrew prayer which “asks God to welcome their souls into
Heaven.” Prince told the crowd that the United States is the greatest
democracy in the world, but, he said, “as compared to what?” He
suggested the American government stand up and identify the “killers”
and the victims, and outline what action it will take.
At the conclusion of the ceremony, the Israeli national anthem -v
Hatikvah
was sung, explained by Rabbi Wolfe to mean “the hope.’,*'
the crowd dispersed, Siev said that Jews should join together
and go to Skokie, Illinois where Nazis are planning to march through a
large community of Holocaust survivors. Buses will leave for Skokie on
April 19. For further information call 831-5513.

Commuter students generally

the Women’s Collection, “one of the best” according to Retrosi. It is
the most extensive on campus, he noted.
Non-fiction works are offered as well. Recreation and Games is the

New books are acquired consistently, from 20 to 100 a month; the
library is funded by Sub-Board at $11,000 a year. “We never buy
anything that isn’t in demand,” related Retrosi. All the best sellers are
purchased, selected from the major magazine and newspaper lists. A
suggestion and request sheet is posted near the checkout desk — most
student requests are obtained. “It’s the students’ money,” Retrosi said.
The Browsing Library has a branch at the Amherst Campus in
Room 167 Fillmore, part of the Student Affairs Office. Materials are
not identical
books rotate from one campus to the other ahd returns
can be made at either facility. The Amherst location may not be
permanent, said Retrosi. Plans for a Music Room to expand the
Library’s services are being drawn up.
A complete move to Amherst is not in the works. “We have no
immediate plans,” Retrosi stated. “I don’t know when or if we’ll have
to move. It’s up in the air, whenever ‘they’ tell us.”
Service is the keynote at both libraries. The staff is accessible,
helpful and friendly. “We wanted to get away from the stern librarian
image,” commented Retrosi. “Satisfied patrons come back.” Students
and faculty can request books and the staff will “break their backs to
find it,” Retrosi said They will locate materials anywhere in the
University system.

Sterilization still funded
Sterilization is the only free alternative that
women can have. Given the impossibility of
obtaining an abortion without risks, the lack of
childcare facilities, the absence of educational
programs, and the pressure on the job, poor women
must face a terrible dilemma. Health, Education, and
Welfare provides funds for sterilization through
Medicaid. In fact, each-year the government pays for
150,000 sterilizations. Here again, statistics are an
eloquent testimony of the injustices forced upon
Third World women. Up to now, 35 percent of the
Puerto Rican women, 20 percent Black American,
21.7 percent Mexican American, and 14 percent
Native American have been sterilized while the figure
is only 8 percent among white women.
To obtain these results, the government follows
different methods. In most cases, it brainwashes
women to accept sterilization under the illusion that
they will acquire a decent standard of living. In other
cases, it cuts welfare funds to those who refuse or
simply it performs the operation without the
knowledge or the consent of the woman. This
government policy is no different from genocide
since it is never up to the poor and Third World
women to freely decide how her family should be.
The State has in this case, usurped and taken this
right back.

Puerto Rican immigration
On Friday, March 17th, PODER will present “A Historical View of the Great
Migration” concerning the struggles of the Puerto Rican people. The topic will be
presented through two media. Dr. Manuel Maldonado—Denis, a professor of political
science.at,the University of Puerto Rico, will present a lecture concerning the problems
and perspectives of Puerto Rican immigration. The evening will also include a world
premiere film entitled Manifest Destiny, exploring the liberation struggles of Puerto Rica,
Cuba and the Philippines. A lecture and discussion on the film will follow. The evening,
co-sponsored by Minority Student Affairs and SA will begin place between 7:30-11:00
p.m. in Room 148 Dlefendorf. Coffee and donuts will be served in Squire 333.

King coal
That the principle issue over which coal miners are striking
is safety conditions and pensions and not pay increase is
indicative of the ill will of the coal company operators and the
Carter adminsitration in not agreeing with their demands. The
proposed contract, which United Mine Workers members
rejected by more- than two to one, is not only sternly
authoritarian and regressive, but is totally unrealistic and even
ludicrous in light of Carter's proposed energy plans.
1985, a
The President seeks to double coal production
move which would also double the health and safety risks of
coal mining, already considered to be the most hazardous
occupation in the country. According to a recent article in the
Village Voice, "the National Institute for Occupational Safety
and Health (NUOCH) says that if coal production climbs to a
billion tons by 1985, 93 more miners than the 141 who were
killed in 1976 will die. Disabling injuries will rise from 13,117
in 1976 to an estimated 16,195 in 1986.”
The proposed contract, fully supported by Carter and his
Labor Secretary, Ray Marshall, would destroy the "womb to
womb" medical coverage which miners won in the late 1940s.
They would now have to pay each year as much as $500 a
family In hospital charges, the first $150 in doctor's fees and
the first $50 for drugs. In addition, coverage would be changed
to private insurance policies instead of being provided through
benefit funds jointly administered by the UMW and the
management. The retainer fees to support clinics and hospitals
in remote regions of Appalachia where no other medical care is
available would be cut off permanently.
The proposed contract effectively undercuts the right to
strike by giving mine management the ability to suspend or
discharge strike leaders or workers who "instigate" wildcat
strikes. It also allows companies to remove miners from safety
committees, which have the power to shut down a mine when
-an "imminent danger" exists. Obviously, the companies would
be very hesitatnt to shut down a mine for any reason, because
the loss in productivity would lead to a loss in profit. This
minimum guarantee of safety
the right to participate in a
decision affecting the lives of everyone in the mine (anyone
who could be trapped and possibly die in the event of a
collapse)
is imperative to any contractualks, and is rightly a
currant focal point of dissension.
The politics behind the bitter rift between coal companies
and the United Mine Workers and government intervention in
their disputes, are an important part of American labor
history. If the companies win the current battle and Carter
has eased the companies' plight by invoking the Taft Hartley
Act, forcing the miners under law to return to work it will be
a giant step backwards. But it is almost easy to see what forces
are at work on Carter.
The coal industry in the southern states is a prime example
of American imperialism in its own backyard. Island Creek
Coal Co. and Old Ben Coal Co., two of the nation's major coal
producers, are owned respectively by Occidental Petroleum
and Standard Oil of Ohio. Between 1973 and 1975,
Occidental s coal profit totaled more than 1000 percent.
Virtually all of which was used to expand oil exploration and
production in Libya and the North Sea. When Standard OiTs
coal profits doubled as a result of the Arab oil embargo, the
windfall was used tp further finance oil production in Prudhoe
Bay and to construct the Trans-Alaska pipeline,
One reason these profits leave the coal states is that
taxation of the politically powerful energy companies is
inadequate. West Virginia reportedly loses at least $150
mil Hon per year because of low taxation of coal property.
Appraisals for rich coal land are sometimes as low as $5 oer
acre.

�FEEDBACK

Threatened Psych
To the Editor.

I am a fourth year Clinical Psychology Graduate
Student enrolled at the SUNY at Buffalo. As I am
sure you are aware, our clinical program is
threatened with the loss of its American
Psychological Association (APA) accreditation. If
such an event were to occuf, the consequences
would be grave for students, faculty and the
University at large. Thus, I am writing both to
express my profound concern regarding this matter
and to urge you to take action to prevent the
rescinding of accreditation.
Our current tenuous accreditation status is due
to the isolation from the larger University academic
community and to the inadequate facilities of the

Psychology Department at the Ridge Lea
interim
campus. The APA accreditation team, in November
1977, noted our insufficient research, clinic and
student work space, lack of an on-campus library
and inadequate transportation services to the campus
for ourselves, potential subjects and clients. The
-

committee has.indicated that these are the primary
grounds upon which accreditation would be
withheld.
While adapting to the limited facilities, in itself
has engendered some hardship, the possible loss of
accreditation of our program constitutes an even
greater professional concern in that my doctoral
degree will carry less weight when I am in
competition for intership and job positions. When I
first chose to enter this program, I certainly did not
anticipate this possible decrement in professional

Waiting for the man
To the Editor.
Maybe I missed something in Brett Kline’s
“Boredom and Awe” article (Friday, March 10).
Why didn’t he pose any of the questions which he
seems to feel others should have asked, or would
have asked, if they only had the brains? My
impression is that B. Kline didn’t say a word. If this
is true how can he so vehemently downgrade his
colleagues, “or maybe he doesn’t have a mind and is
really a well dressed, articulate robot.”
There stands The Man, waiting to answer your
questions. What an opportunity. Confront the
President with something very important to you and
your friends: broken promises, federal spending,
go nuts, raise verbal hell
unconditional amnesty
(while smiling politely at the S.S. men). Sure it’s like
spitting into the wind but it beats sitting there
quietly taking notes on how infantile or prejudiced
or deviate the others appear to be. Also it gives you a
little more basis to come home and write such a
derrogatory article. A little more. At least we would
get the feeling that you had participated and
therefore possibly knew what you were talking

accreditation were revoked, our department’s
reputation for excellence would certainly decline;
and, this regression in turn, would damage the
academic credibility of the University, as a whole.
The community of Buffalo presently benefits
from services provided by our departmient. The
students and faculty of our program now supply
teaching, clinical, community and consultation
services to numerous Western New York agencies,
institutions and citizens. There are many individuals
who will suffer from the loss of quality service if our
department loses its accreditation, and subsequently
its greatest resources
its superior faculty and
students.
I cannot express strongly enough my request to
have you do whatever is within your power to assure
the accredited status of our Clinical Psychology
Graduate Program, by the allocation of funds
necessary to provide adequate space and facilities
situated
within the SUNY Buffalo academic
community. I would greatly appreciate your concern
and efforts to ameliorate this situation.

believe that I am becoming part of a student

closely that of their predecessors’. In my three years
at UB, 1 have yet to see student involvement increase

which only 20 percent of the undergraduate
population voted (more or less the same as last year).

that are, at times, characterized chiefly by their
insensitivity and narrow-mindedness. There can be
no doubt that their attitude contributes to an
absence of interest on the part of students. In
addition, having the University separated into three
campuses has a more stuperous effect on the
students (because we are the ones that must ride the
buses) than any other group on campus. Being in a
constant state of disorientation is not condusive to
motivating student support for anything.
Identfying the problem is relatively simple . . .
providing the answer is much more difficult, and
something that
I alone cannot accomplish
Therefore, instead of providing an answer, let this
letter be considered a plea to all students. In the
past, the following rationale has been attempted to
convince students that it is in their best interest to
take an active role in'SA: “Since we ad pay $67,00
(now $70.00) to SA each of us should have some say
on how that money is spent.” Not only has this
rationale failed completely in generating student
participation, but its line of reasoning avoids the

more vital justification for a heightening of student
concern. At this University, every major decision
that is made becomes an administrative decision.
Input from SA is often solicited, and sometimes even
considered, but if there is any difference in our
desires and those of the administration, their
solution always becomes the solution. Believe it or
not, this is not entirely the fault of our
administration. Evil men do not inhabit Capen Hall
As a result of our complete uninvolvement in the
issues and decisions of this University (which affect
our lives directly) we have promoted a void in
leadership. The men that sit in Capen Hall have
become less and less facilitators of growth in our
community and more and more controllers of a
beleagered University. When we (as student leaders)
approach these men, how can we expect them to
respect our opinion if we have no student support?
Only if a significant number of students take an
active interest in the issues that affest them will
administrators be willing to listen and show concern
for their needs. Until this happens student opinion

8000+ students who did not vote, and I replied,
“nothing could be further from the truth.”

For Soviet dissident

Hunger strike plan
Student Struggle for Soviet Jewry is organizing a one day
hunger strike today to publicize the plight of Anatoly Shcharansky.
Shcharansky, a citizen of the Soviet Union, was arrested on
June 2, 1977 and charged with treason and espionage under the
Soviet Driminal Code. If convicted, he could be sentenced to death.

Shcharanslcy' fs
first Jewish activist to be charged with
treason by the Soviet Union since 1970. He Is specifically charged
with conspiring to pass Soviet military secrets to the Central
Intelligence Agency (CIA). The Shcharansky case is seen as a

to Soviet and Jewish dissidents that the Soviet Union
intends to crack-down on anyone not conforming to Soviet dogma.
Despite President Carter’s declaration that Shcharansky has
“never had any sort of relationship, to our knowledge, with the
CIA,” the Soviets continue to hold him. It is hoped that the Soviet
Union will respond to public pressure generated by the publicity of
the nationwide hunger strike and release Shcharansky.

The intramural basketball team, Wesley’s Wild
Bunch, was disqualified from the semifinals by
Director of Intramurals and Recreation William
Monkarsh last Friday. Director of Basketball and
Wesley team member Steve Allen sajd, “It was felt
that 1 should not be playing on a team in the
playoffs since I run the league and there may be
political implications. There was also a question
about one team member who isn’t a full time
student.”
According to Allen, the rules regarding the
status of players are unclear. Presently, the only
*

requirement for players is the possession of either a
valid ID or recreation card. ’The standing of
non-students in intramurals is tough to tell. We will
be having a meeting soon to decide the matter.”
Some members of the Independence of Puerto
Rico team,.which entered the playoffs by virtue of
Wesley’s disqualification, were outraged because
they were not notified of the change. Allen
responded, “The team captain was notified of the
change Friday night. Sometimes a captain doesn’t
get in touch with the other players so there may be
confusion.”

University of Buffalo. Over the
years, Buffalo has racked up more
championships than any other
team. Lately, though, due to
budget cuts and the lack of a
long-term coaching staff, UB
fencers have not done as well in
the tournament.
In the early going, the Bulls’
inexperience in fencing such
top-notch competition manifested
itself with the Buffalo fencers
losing nine of the first ten bouts.
Captain Jon Solomon, who had
lost only one bout the whole
season, was defeated by fencers

After that early sluggishness,
though, Solomon went on to whip
some of the best foil fencers in
the competition. Solomon
finished by winning only five of
eleven bouts, and thus failed to
even reach the finals of the event
many thought he would win. “I

just wasn’t getting the touches
when 1 needed them today,”
explained Solomon.
The other toiler, Rich Sherman
was nipped in all four of his
overtime bouts and finished with
a 3-8 record for the day.
The same pattern developed i

the
Bulls kept losing until about a
third of the competition was over.
Then, when many of the Bulls’
hopes for making the nationals
had been speared away, the

characteristic of them during the
season, and came back to win

however, Wong was not rested. “I

�John Pederson

Mike Betz

A new season to begin for the Baseball Bulls
by Marie Meltzer

hurlers are junior righties Mike
Betz and Greg Fisher. Fisher
tossed a no-hitter against Canisius
last fall, racking up ten strikeouts
and walking only one in the seven
inning effort.

UB will put heavy emphasis on
the running game this year. “We
have great team speed,” Montour
said, “probably the best of apy
UB team.”

Assistant Sports Editor

The baseball Bulls, Buffalo’s

only remaining Division 1 team,
will begin their 30th season in a

few weeks, in search of their third
playoff berth in three years. “We
have a good team with a
possibility of being a great team,"
commented assistant coach Gary
Montour. “We have enough
talent.”
Last spring, Buffalo coach Bill
Monkarsh was faced with the task
of plugging holes left by the
graduation of several stars. The
young Bulls gained some much
needed experience, and in the
process, qualified for the playoffs
and surpassed Monkarsh’a goal of
a .500 season by going 24-20. This
season, more is expected from
m
them.
UB lost only three players
from last spring’s team. Gone are
catcher Mike Dixon (.457, 5
homeis), who was drafted by the
Phillies; pitcher Bill Casbolt (9-5,
2.91 ERA), who was signed by
Kansas City; and shortstop lack
Kaminska (.350, 14 stolen bases).
“We have a great nucleus to come
back to,” said Montour,

Fine garden

Ed Durkin, who
tri-captain
manned the hot comer last year,
and free swinging southpaw John
White. It seems likely that one of
those two will wind up at DH.
Patrolling the outfield for the
Bulls will be juniors Jim Wojcik
(center) and John Pedersen (left)
and sophomore Scott Raimondo
(right). Montour rates Pederson a
pro prospect. All three outfielders
possess fine speed and strong
throwing arms.
The pitching situation is
unclear. Lefty Casbolt carried the
brunt of the pitching load last
year, pitching more tbah twice as
many innings as any other Bull.
Monkarsh will choose his pitching
staff from 24 pitchers. Key

■

Two highly rated mound
recruits are lefty Joe Hesketh and
righty Dennis Howard. Rich
Brooks, Dave Borsuk, Ron Nero,
Don Griebner and Jim Rodriguez
will all be trying to crack the
rotation.
“We have a lot of
throwers,” said Montour. “We’ll
find out how many pitchers we
have in Florida. If we get good
pitching I think we’ll have enough
hitting to have a great team.”

NUCLEAR
600 pounds of
FAREWELL:
potentially dangerous radioactive fuel has been
given the send-off to a reprocessing plant in Idaho

as the sordid saga of the campus Nuclear Reactor
continues.

Radioactive fuel transferred
After considerable controversy about possible
hazards, the Nuclear Science and
Technology Facility has successfully boarded 600
pounds of radioactive fuel for transfer to a
reprocessing plant in Idaho.
The campus Nuclear Reactor was shut down
October 7 by the Federal Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC) pending the repair of a leaking
pipe beneath the floor of the reactor. The fuel was
sitting on the floor of the reactor, necessitating
the fuel’s removal.
Reactor officials sought to temporarily move
the nuclear fuel to an interim storage tank within
the Nuclear Reactor. That move was thwarted by
two groups
the North Buffalo Food Coop and
the University Community Concerned About the
Reactor (UCARE) who filed petitions with the
NRC alleging unsafe procedures in the planned
removal of the radioactive material.
The petitions would have forced the NRC to
hold an intervening hearing to 'determine the
validity of the Coop’s and UCARE’t argument.
nuclear

-

Reactor officials abandoned the fuel transfer plan
since the hearings called for in the petitions would
have stretched past the scheduled removal of the
radioactive rods.
The nuclear fuel was placed in a 12-ton cask
for the trip to the Federal Department of Energy’s
(DOE) reprocessing plant in Idaho Falls, Idaho.
The cask, the only one in the world licensed to
transport radioactive wastes of the type produced
by the Campus Reactor, is especially built to
withstand high impact. It will ride atop a flat bed
truck during the trip to Idaho.
During the transfer of the cask to the truck,
radiation was measured through the use of Geiger
counters. According to Associate Director of the
Center Martin Haas, the danger from radiation
leakage is extremely slight due to the careful
construction of the cask and the precautions
taken during its transfer.
The Campus Nuclear Reactor received a
shipment of new fuel two weeks ago from the
DOE and is now back in operation.

State, Bunn commented, “It is a
sobering experience to be an
administrator within SUNY.
Cumulative problem
Professor Howard Foster, who
is chairing the search for Dean of
Continuing Education, said the
problem was critical to fhe future
of this University because “it’s
hard to fill a void when you have
a
large number of positions

of a middle level administrative

It hat been ten years since the
English requirement was dropped
at this University by a Faculty

Senate resolution. Since that time,
many professors maintain the
quality of student writing has
dropped, although the factors
involved are not easily discernible.
But all agree that tin level of
writing isn’t and never has been
up to acceptable levels, and that
some demonstration of at least
minimal writing ability should
precede the awarding of a degree.
(Yes, Virginia, there are illiterate
College Graduates.)

Chairman of the Faculty
Jonathan
Reichert
Senate
suggested that an exam be taken
in the sophomore year testing
each student’s basic writing skills
before the student is allowed to
proceed. Reichert cautioned that
he didn’t speak for the whole
Faculty Senate on this issue.

‘Not interesting anyway’
The question of writing was
formally
addressed,
never
according to Baumer. English was
one of several requirements along
with math, science, and in some
cases, language, that were cut as a
package to enable the four-course
load to work. Baumer noted that
the required English class is not
doing all that was hoped for, and
that it would indeed be hard now
fqr the Faculty Senate to decide
for example that the English
requirement should be reinstated
and the math shouldn’t. This
would require value judgements
about which is more important,
he said.
Acting University Dean Walter
Kunz thinks that the University
has a responsibility to see that
each student has contact with the
basic skills within the framework
of general education, although not
necessarily inside existing courses.
Kunz agreed with Baumer that the
required English course has not
been yery successful. ‘'When it is
required, people who offer it
aren’t that interested because they
have a captured audience, and thfe
subject is riot that interesting
anyway, to teach or to learn,”
commented Kunz.

Chairman of the English
Gale Carrithers
Department
asserted that for general academic
the University and its
purposes
students would be better off With
a required writing course, but
added that it would be a mixed
blessing
to
the
English
Department. “While we would be
gaining more students, it would
preempt a great deal of faculty
attention,” stated Carrithers. He
also said that he had not noticed a
decline in writing ability and that
the “back to basics" preaching
missed the real point. “We were
never at the basics to begin with,”
asserted Carrithers. “There has
always been a problem with
writing.”
Professor Raymond Federman
of the English Department doesn’t
think that a required course is the
answer. “It must be an awareness
within the student that says T
must learn how to write’,” he
maintained, “but I don’t know
how it can be gotten.” Federman
felt that the quality of writing hat

of the History
Department Clifton Yearley also
championed the idea of a
minimum standard. However, he
felt that it wasn’t necessarily the
job of the English Department to
teach students how to write. “The
overall quality of writing has gone
down in recent years, but this
serves -to show that we as
educators aren’t doing our job,”
said Yearley. “Students, especially
at this University, are very
trainable, and if each department
undertook to teach their students
we would probably notice a
distinct improvement within a

Hovorka believes that these

nature of an independent study

expect the grades to be in on time

EDITORIAL

My ignorant editorial
To the Editor.

Right to write?

Your editorial in . last Wednesday’s The
Spectrum concerning the recent murder of a student
on campus was very ignorant and in extremely poor
taste.
How can you accuse the local papers of making
the incident into front page news just because it
happened at this University? It would have been
front; page news even if it had happened across the
street at a gas station. Did you really expect the local
papers to bury the incident on pg. 38?
You write about “often-heard comments being
passed about bn the buses, in the hallways and on
the walkways leading tft class
and they are stupid
is that wild
and ignorantly typical of students here
Puerto Ricans are running around Ellicott looking
for blood.” We wonder where you have been hearing
these comments? Certainly not in the same buses,
hallways and walkways we’ve been using. On the
contrary,' we have heard an almost universal
and we have not heard of any
expression of grief
fears of wild Puerto Ricans running around the
school looking for blood. You claim these alleged
statements are “ignorantly typical of students here.”
This is one of the most asinine statements ever
printed in The Spectrum. Yes, there are a small

The boycott of National Fuel Gas bills is not working effectively
and may prove nothing positive by April 15, when a decision on
whether to continue will be made. Yet, NFG is still raping its
customers of gas and money; it probably will be granted another rate
increase and there will be no moratorium on shut-offs during the cold
winter months, now or in the future.
So who is winning and who is losing? Two elderly citizens have
died of exposure and the NFG officials who turned off their heat
shrugged off the deaths as incidental. Official luck is with them; the
major dailies in this city have not taken the boycott seriously and have,
in facf, refused to take ads from the Citizen Alliance urging Buffalo
residents to send it their gas bills.
That pnly some 300 people have sent their bills to the Alliance
best characterizes the lack of credibility in the boycott's effectiveness.
If at best,200 of those 300 are students at this University living in
North Buffalo, and if an average of four students live in one apartment
together, then only 800 out of 7500 students in the area are
participating in the boycott. Those figure* stink; then reek of
middle-of-the-roaduninterest and complacent boredom.
Students should be most interested and most willing to take a
chance on the boycott at least because they have the least to loose.
Students also have the least to gain, however, given that their lower
bills would be most temporary and that fact that they often regroup
and pay biIls-under different names front year to year. (As a rule, those To the Editor

group of bigots here. You do have these fears; to
think otherwise would be very naive. However, to
claim that it is typical of students here is absolutely
false and is an insult to the student body.
You wonder about “how a student can be
swallowed up by this University feeling alienated,
isolated and having no family, emerge almost four
years later frustrated to the point of insanity, finally
kill someone and ! have his o'Wn mental digression go
uncared for.” Afe you saying that the University
could have predicted and prevented this tragedy? If
so, how? Are you blaming the Ellicott Complex for
his death? It has been blamed for just about
everything but the Blizzard of ’77.
You state that this death should be used to
impress upon Albany the need for a fieldhouse and a
full-time doctor. We don’t feel this incident should
be used for that purpose
there are certainly better
ways to accomplish these goals. Even so, although a
fieldhouse and a full-time doctor are urgently
needed, we question whether they could have
prevented the tragedy, as you seem to imply.
We certainly hope that Domingo Rivera gets a
fair trial and we joirr- the rest of the University in
mourning the death of Daniel Cordero.

by Walter Simpson
The woods were silent expect for the gentle hiss
of the wind..I stood motionless, overwhelmed by the
stillness and the beauty. 1 was filled with the quiet
joy that comes from feeling part of the earth, a
feeling that never comes to me when I’m in the city.
The lake unfolded before me, its cover of ice
and snow brilliant in the sunshine. I had to squint to
take it in. The glistening expanse of pure white,
reaching toward the distant horizon, was bordered
by spruce and hardwood, the Canadian bush so
impassible in the summer, but nbw laid jbare and
accessible to one on snowshoes. Here and there,
tracks of humans and other animals wove this way
and that, crisscrossing the nearest bay and the
hillside that rose from its far shore.
1 stood there perched on my hilltop, buoyed by
the overgrown feet I had strapped on minutes
before. The forest floor, buried by numerous
snowfalls, was three feed below me. Such altitude! I
felt like I was flying, walking on air. Indeed, how
could I have been higher?!
On this walk, I tested the versatility of the
snowshoe by sliding down a thirty foot snowback.
Yes, snowshoes can be skis, and steep slopes are to
be enjoyed, not circumvented. 1 laughed to myself
when one of my shoes slipped off and I sank
thigh-deep into the snow. Nature’s joke, reminding
me once again that I was flying.
I am just back from four days in Algonquin
Park, Ontario. As I look over the pages of my
appointment calendar, I can see a difference: most
of the pages are cluttered with numerous reminders
to attend meetings, teach classes, run errands, and
make phone calls; in contrast, the days I spent in
Algonquin are blank, completely empty. Yet, how

full those days were!
In the summer, canoe trippers paddle
Algonquin’s lakes in search of beauty, solitude, and
peace. It’s different in the winter, though what’s
sought is the same. Intimate and prolonged contact
with nature is tonic for the soul. I felt it simplifying

my overcomplicated life. My retreat pulled together
all my disparate and fragmented parts.
Wilderness is nature left intact, its fabric
and
untrampled,
undeveloped,
unbroken,
unexploited. It’s an area free of roads and other
conveniences.
Wilderness cannot be civilized,
mastered, or made easy. By definition, it is primitive
and untamed, it calls for a physical life.
But what is wrong with that? In the city, we
wear ourselves out without even physicall exerting
ourselves. Our bodies go to waste behind machines,
steering
wheels.
Our fatigue is
desks, and
schizophrenic: our minds are preoccupied, worried;
our bodies are disconnected, atrophied But hauling
logs, cutting and splitting wood, and tending the fire
restore wholeness. A long hike on snowshoes feels
good and makes for a restful night.
As snowmobiling, open pit mining, clearcutting,
and the press of growing human numbers make

wilderness an endangered species, we should recall
Thoreau’s statement that “in wilderness is the
preservation of the world.” We cannot live by that
which is man-made alone. We need wilderness.
Indeed, the world will shrink to unbearable
proportions if the last remaining great expanses of
wilderness, like those in Alaska and the Amazon, are
dug up, paved over, or turned into plastic. The more
of the earth that we inhabit, the mor uninhabitable
it will become.
“Man,” says Grey Owl, “should enter the
woods, not with any conquistador obsession or
mighty hunter complex . . . but rather with the awe,
and not a little of the veneration, of one who steps
within the portals of some vast and ancient edifice of
wonderous architecture. For many a man who would
consider himself the master of all he surveys would
do well, when setting foot in the forest, to take off
,
not only his hat but his shoes too . .
Time and time again, when I’ve journeyed into
the wilderness, I’ve thought, “Here is my cathedral.”
I’ve felt my spirit lifted with the trees that soar into
the sky. From my hilltop overlooking the lake, I can
see my life in perspective and the world at peace.

Free the Wilmington Ten
To the Editor.
On January 23 of this year, North Carolina
Governor James Hunt refused to grant freedom to
the Wilmington Ten. (See Wednesday’s The
Spectrum). The Ten are nine Black men and a white
woman, framed by state authorities on a 1971 arson
charge due to their civil rights activities. Since their
conviction that year, the three major prosecution
witnesses have recanted their testimony, stating that
the prosecutor and other North Carolina officials
conspired to intimidate and bribe witnesses to give
false evidence.
According to Representative Robert Drinan of
Massachusetts, “three witnesses have come out and
said that the District Attorney actually paid them to
give the evidence that they did.”
Although Governor Hunt is tiding to cover up
the racism and lack of human rights in North

FEEDBACK
Psychology situation
To the Editor

Several weeks ago, the UB Clinical Psych Dept,
learned that it was in danger of loosing accreditation
due to inadequate facilities at Ridge Lea. This loss of
accreditation would devastate the Clinical Dept., as
it would stimulate a mass exodus of psychology
professors and graduate students to other schools,
and would preclude the awarding of grants for the
support of the graduate students that remain.
Three weeks ago, the Psychology Dept, received
a commitment from President Ketter to ask for

$100,000 to upgrade the Ridge Lea Campus (this
would benefit all the departments that remain at
Ridge Lea) and $50,000 for the planning of the
Psych Department’s move to the Main Street
campus. This funding is dependent upon Governor

Cary's approval of UB’s supplemental budget, so our
future is not yet -assured. Nor can we assume that the
APA accreditation committee will approve our
department given the proposed changes.
One of the APA criteria for accreditation is
administrative
support of the department in
question. Prior administrative commitments to our
department have not been honored, as they were
based on incomplete or inaccurate information.
Consequently, it is especially important that the UB
administration maintain its most recent commitment
to the Psych Department.
Last week the Graduate Psychology Association
circulated a petition opposing the decision to keep
the Psych Department at Ridge Lea longer than the
time necessary for the renovation of Parker Hall on
the Main Street campus. We were not able to canvas
the entire body of psychology students due to time
limitations. However, we did receive 160 petitions
from undergraduate psychology students and 70
petitions from graduate students and professors. So
it is clear that there is considerable sympathy for the
the
Department’s situation
amongst
Clinical
psychology students and faculty at UB.
Attached to the petition was a list of 41 possible
changes for the revitalization of Ridge Lea for the
two-year period needed to renovate Parker Hall. The
students were asked to check 10 changes that they
felt were essential to the revitalization of the Ridge
Lea campus. The undergraduate and graduate
students’ combined requests in order of priority
were: 1) a library with complete services at Ridge
Lea; 2) improved eating facilities and dining area; 3)
a lounge for students; 4) free photocopying services
as at the HSL; 5) improved clinic facilities; 6) more
office and research space; 7) study areas for
students; 8) money for symposia and speakers; 9)
increased bus services (7 days a week) and 10)
continued computer services at RL.
The
undergraduate, graduate and faculty
requests differed primarily in the undergraduates’
greater need for a lounge and study areas, and the
graduate students’ and facultys’ greater concern that
faculty lines and graduate support lines be increased.
It is significant that there is a good deal of overlap
between these requests and the APA guidelines for
facilities.
These guidelines call for: 1) adequate work;
office and research space for faculty and students; 2)
teaching facilities, including seminar and observation
rooms; 3) complete library facilities; 4) calculators,
typewriters and computer facilities, among other
things. This overlap highlights the desperate need for
temporary revitalization of RL and the hastened
move of the Psychology Department to the Main
Street campus.
This survey was conducted in part to provide
some practical student feedback concerning the
revitalization of Ridge Lea. The administration and
the Psychology Department leadership are currently
negotiating this revitalization. We ask that our
requests be seriously considered in this process of
negotiation.

Student Association (SA&gt;-and Group Legal Services Attorney
Richard Lippes explained that this may be a constitutional violation.
“There is an expectation of privacy;” Lippes said. “Privacy rights might
be violated by opening a sealed letter..”
Lippes added that because this University is a State school,
anything done administratively is considered a State action. The first
ten amendments to the United States Constitution are applicable to
actions by State University officials via the fourteenth amendment, he
claimed.
Campus Mail includes inter-departmental or student activity
mailings as well as studcnt-to-student mail. This mail is deemed
legitimate and allowable because it is necessary to facilitate normal
communications throughout the University.
Letters in violation of Campus Mail rules, which prohibit the use
of campus mail service for political or sales activities, are either
returned to the sender or held for thirty days after the sender has been
notified. If the mail has not been claimed within this time period, it is

“It’s the exception, not the rule, when we open mail.” Sicurella said.
“It’s not a tag problem.” He explained that large mailings from

Since “illegal” Campus Mail is not a big problem, why are letters
being opened? “If abuses are minor,” Lippes said, “the overwhelming
interest in privacy would outweigh.any need for a checking for abuses
at the maihoom level.” Lippes felt that this was especially true in the
campus situation where academic rights and freedom have such
importance.
U.S. Postal System Inspector Tom Parkinson was not happy with
the situation here. “While U.S. Mail can’t be opened,” he said, “inter
office mail (campus mail type) is not regulated by us, so I can’t
determine the legality of lt.”He did believe, however, that the opening
of mail is morally wrong. “If a professor writes a letter,” he said, “what

Most of the student organizations are unaware that this type of

Social Forces and Wild Bunch win

Wizards no longer
reign over hockey
Jack Dunbar scored with only four seconds left in regulation time
Bunnies an upset win in the intramural ice hockey A league
championships. Dunbar's goal broke a 2-2 tie and ended the Wizard’s
two year reign on the intramural ice hockey championship.
The regular season race was closely contested, as the top three
teams were separated by only three points. Puck You finished first
closely followed by the Wizards and the Bunnies. The final standings
were not decided until the last night of the regular season.
There were two semifinal playoff games on Wednesday night at
Tonawanda Sports Center. In the first game the Wizards, defending
champions, easily eliminated the Wingoes, 3-0. In the other semifinal
match the Bunnies posted a 2-0 victory over Puck You. Goalie Jim
Drey picked up the shutout with Dave Todd and Bernie Schaub scoring
the goals. Puck You was hurt by penalties throughout the game.
The final was a rematch of the teams from last year’s
championship game. The Bunnies lost to the Wizards in last year’s
game, but atoned for that loss by handing the Wizards their first defeat
ever in a game last semester, and then tied the Wizards in the regular
season finale. The Bunnies trailed throughout the game, but with 1:30
left to play, they began their comeback. Bob Benjamin and Scott Pellet
:-ored goals in quick succession, and deadlocked the game.
In the championship tilt the Wizards drew first blood. Less than a
minute into the game Eddie Ambis, a former varsity player at Cornell
put the Wizards ahead. The Bunnies came back and went ahead 2-1 on
goals by Dave Todd on Mike Mulcahy. Ambis then struck again and
tied the game. As the clock wound down it looked almost certain that
there would be an overtime period to break the tie, but Dunbar fired
one past the sprawling Wizards’ goalie with four seconds left for a
to give the

dramatic win.

Several
clutch plays in
overtime by Bob Fleming led the
Social Forces to a 58-54 victory
over the BSU Panthers in an
intramural basketball A league

quarterfinal
playoff
game
Wednesday night at Clark Hall.
Fleming, who had but two
points during most of regulation
time, came alive in the last minute
of regulation and the start of
overtime.

His

free

throw with

105 left tied the game at 49,
forcing the extra period. Two
more freethrows by Fleming early

in overtime tied the game at 51.
With under a minute and a half
left, Fleming drove around Ron
Washington for an easy layup, to
knot the contest at 53. “I knew
the guy who was guarding me had
four fouls,” Fleming said. “That’s

why I went to the basket.”
Then it was Phil Halpern’s turn
to make the clutch plays. He got

NO REBOUND THIS TIME: Members of the Social Forces (skins) and
the BSU Panthers position themselves for the rebound, only to watch
the ball pass through the hoop, in an intramural basketball quarterfinal
playoff game Wednesday night. Social Forces won in overtime, 58—54.
Both teams had to scratch and
claw for whatever points they
could get the rest of the half.
After Fleming tied the game in
regulation, the Forces tried to run
down the clock and take one last
shot. Twice in the last fifteen
seconds, BSU almost stole the
ball. Each time, only a fraction of
an inch prevented BSU from
recovering the ball and getting
anuncontested layup.
Washington was the leading

scored almost at will, and did a
fine job off the backboards.
Charlie Vesper swished six shots
in the second half, all from long

“Buffalo is a printing city

                    <text>Minority hiring leaves
much to be desired

The Spectrum

by Dan Barry

Staff Writer

Vol. 28, No. 65

Affirmative Action in the hiring of faculty at this University has
not made significant gains in increasing the numbers of women and
minorities. Although the University set up its own bureaucracy seven
years ago to implement Affirmative Action, many departments still
have one or two minority members. Recruiting of women faculty has
been a little better, but far below hoped-for levels.
Director of the Affirmative Action Office here, Jesse Nash,
what else
funding
attributed much of the slow progress to
shortages. Budget straits have prevented any expansion of programs to
more fully include minorities and women. Mash believes that, in this
era of stable or declining resources, anti-Affirmative Action postures
within the University are more easily and subtlely used to undermine
the objectives of the program. “There are attitudes in the University,
and across the nation, that oppose Affirmative Action,” Mash said
“There are persons who are able to disguise their opposition by taking
any of several routes.
“One way is to use the rhetoric of Constitutionality (reverse
discrimination). This group believes Affirmative Action illegal because
they believe it sets out to help one specific group. Others just believe
that no one should be given handouts. They believe that one should
pull himself up by his bootstraps, even if he doesn’t have any.
“Still others feel that Affirmative Action isn’t totally bad but they
are opposed to what they consider the setting of quotas.”

Safeguards don't help
According to University guidelines for Affirmative Action, a
standing search panel
The President’s Panel for the Review of Search
is charged with “reviewing Search Procedure
Procedures (PPRSP)
Reports (SPR’s) to determine whether all state-funded faculty and NTP
hiring was in compliance with the University’s Equal Employment
Opportunity plan.”
Specifically the search panel attempts to insure that departments
acted “affirmatively,” in identifying and recruiting qualified women
and minority candidates for faculty and professional vacancies. If the
panel believes that a department has not made a creditable attempt at
this, it will request that the appropriate vice president disapprove the
Search Report and direct the department to resubmit the report after
—

another search.

Despite

these safeguards, the University has not appreciably
increased the percentage of minorities in the faculty. As of October
1976, there was a total of 215 faculty in the Social Sciences, including
7 Blacks, Z2,yromen. There is now a total of 233 faculty in the Social
Sciences (a ifl!t gain of 18), including 35 women but only 5 Blacks. In
other areas, the figures are comparable. In the School of Engineering,
where the number of faculty has remained around 75, thcnp are how no
women or Blacks in the faculty. There had been one Black in the

which numbers 32, there are 4 women and no Blacks, although there
had Been 2 Black faculty members eighteen months ago. The School of
Management includes 2 women and 1 Black among its 47 faculty
members, approximately the same as a year and a half ago. The School
of Medicine has also maintained its status quo over the recent years
28 women and 2 Blacks among 309 faculty.

Increases nil
It is results that the Affirmative Action program is interested in
and the results obtained at this University seem to be quite
discouraging. What are at best moderate increases in the number of
women faculty have been accompanied by mostly decreases or no
changes in the number of Blacks and other minorities across the
University.
Why has Affirmative Action failed here? According to Assistant to
the President Ronald Stein,

“If there are

no

women

or

minorities in the

pool of candidates, it is very difficult to bring these groups into the
University. If you don’t have anyone,qualified for the jobs from those
groups, you have to look elsewhere.” To develop qualified persons in
these under-represented groups, an internship program has been set up
under the auspices of Director of Personnel Robert Pearson. This
program will enable present faculty members to acquire training and
experience needed to become competitive for administrative positions.
Pearson said, “I’m working with Jesse Nash to involve minorities in the
program. Although it is open to all faculty members, we are interested
in getting minority and women faculty into the program.”
Still, the training program exists only for persons already in the
University. The task of bringing minorities and women to Buffalo
continues to be the responsibility of the individual departments, the

President’s Panel, and the Affirmative Action office.

New ideas needed
Jesse Nash, for one, feels that more in needed. “We need
innovation,” he baserved. “We have to come to realize that we can do
better or admit that we can’t and stop pretending that we can. It’s hard
for me to ‘show’ that Affirmative Action is anything but a nuisance to
the University. I must create incentives to get others to make an
to reach segments of the population that have been
excluded.”
Nash fears that unless SUNY Central and the Division of Budget
assume some responsibility for Affirmative Action by creating
reasonable and workable incentives for SUNY units, “we are going to
have to struggle along. A gain here and there but no sweeping changes.”
The co-chairpersons of the President’s Panel Frank Corbett and
Sara Cicarelli, feel that despite the poor overall figures. Affirmative
Action at this University has been improving. They point to
departments’ willingness to solicit the panel’s advice on how to best
follow Affirmative Action search procedure guidelines and their own
inclusion on some of the departmental search panels. “The latest
Search Procedure Reports are much improved over the earlief ones,”
pointed out Cicarelli.

The President’s entrance was

Typical because his teeth-baring

smile was instantly warm and
winning; those in the room could
have wished him to be their

of cameramen (no women) and

casualness.

willing to “hang together rather
than hang separately.”
There is this simple human
view of the issue which sees first
of all human beings out there
suffering death in mine disasters,
black lung disease, possible loss of
old age security, likely loss of
control of working conditions to
company planners, and now the
company demand that each miner
who respects, out of human
solidarity, the picket line of
another miner, be penalized with
either loSs of job or a great fine

any of us could be in the position
of this miner. After all,'as we are
now being reminded, it is the
work of these miners which
provides the basis for our comfort
and livelihood.

Tolstoy College (F)

Coal miners who work in ,an
industry that has killed on the
average 100 workers per month
over the past century are on
strike. Once again, they are
persevering against the combined
power of the mine owners, the
federal government, all kinds of
State and local authorities, and
even the so-called leadership of
the United Mine Worker’s Union.
And now, it is the case that even
though President Carter will
invoke the anti-labor Taft-Hartley
law, no one really expects this
action to persuade the miners to
return to work.
It seems finally that we, in the
United States, are waking up to
the reality that there really are a
group of people united and
resolute in their common aim not
to
be harassed, intimidated,
coerced and rdbotized by big
business. About time! “All power
to them,” some of us may be
thinking to ourselves. Well, there
are two very different ways to

As big business is attempting to

they are trying to "rationalize”
our own industry, education. The
mine owners would prefer a docile
labor force, without those

movements, without “wild cat

without rebellion in the mine

by Wendy Krasnoff
Special to The Spectrum
at a post-conviction hearing for the
Ten, defense attorneys for the Ten
attempted to illustrate that former New Hanover
prosecutor Jay Stroud had coerced the state’s three
primary witnesses into giving false testimony during
the 1972 trial, and had provided special treatment in
return for their testimonies. It took the defense a
week to state its case.
Testimony began with Jerome Mitchell, who
was 16 and had been convicted in a second-degree
murder case when he gave trial testimony in 1972,
placing Rev. Chavis and others near the scene of the
firebombing and sniping incidents. Mitchell testified
under oath last year that he had given false
testimony at the urging of prosecutor Jay Stroud.
He said he was given documents to study
which were
produced by defense attorneys
determined to be in the handwriting of prosecutor
Stroud. Mitchell also testified that Stroud kept him
at a cottage where a former KICK leader visited him
and promised him “protection” after he testified
Prosecutor Stroud also told Mitchell that he was
needed to corroborate Hall’s testimony
Eric Junious, 13 at the time of the original trial,
stated that he had perjured himself because
Prosecutor Stroud had promised him a minibike for
Christmas. Following the trial, Junious was given the
minibike and arrangements were made for him to get
a job. Stroud has adamantly denied making any deals
with the three witnesses. In addition to Mitchell’s
and
Junious’s recantations, Allan Hall, the
prosecution’s key witness, testified under oath that
he too had perjured himself at the trial in 1972.
Defense Attorney Ferguson also reminded Judge
Foutain that two weeks after Hall testified, his
twelve year sentence for arson was amended to a
one-day-to twelve-year youthful offender judgement.
Ferguson also told the judge “the state has conceded
that not another single witness at the Wilmington
Ten trial offered any incriminating testimony.”
Some of the most important testimony provided
by the defense, according to Ferguson, was the
corroboration
of the fact that the witnesses
rehearsed their testimony and perjured themselves.
Adriene Sellars testified that while he was
incarcerated he met Allan Hall in 1974, who told
him that Stroud had promised his release based on
the deal made between Hall and Stropd in return for
Hall’s testimony against the Ten. Quentin Brown,
another inmate, testified that both Jerome Mitchell
and Allan Hall had told him that they lied at the
Wilmington Ten trial after making a deal with
Stroud. Lastly, Joseph Sweat, an inmate from
Wilmington, testified that Eric Junious and Mall told

him that they lied at the trial. Sweat also
acknowledged being offered a deal himself to testify
against the Ten, which he refused.
After the convictions and the post-conviction
hearing, it was found that additional evidence
surfaced which could have been vital to the defense
of the Wilmington Ten. The State Good Neighbor
Council, which is a state-sponsored race relations
organization, also attempted to mediate racial
tensions in Wilmington and in fact invited Rev.
Chavis to quell the violence. Good Neighbor Council
Reverend Aaron
told the Greensboro Daily
News that the Council had in its possession
documentary evidence which would tend . to
exonerate the Wilmington Ten. The Council resisted
strenuously efforts by the defense, including
subpoenas, to get those records released. The Good
Neighbor Council members did not ’wish to testify
on behalf of the Ten because “they were concerned
about maintaining a low profile.” The Council
receives funds from the United Nations General

Johnson

Assembly.

In addition, one month after the Ten had been
sentenced to long prison terms, the records “so
highly favorable” to the Wilmington Ten, apparently
were stolen from the files of the Good Neighbor
Council office in Raleigh.
Rev. Eugene Templeton,
the young white
was
of the
pastor
minister
who
Gregory
Congretational Church during the violence, never
testified at the trial. Templeton was prepared to
testify that Chavis and four other members of the
Ten were with him when the grocery was burned
down. He was also prepared to testify that he never
heard Chavis or other members of the Wilmington
Ten exhort others to commit acts of violence, and,
on the contrary, he had heard Chavis plead for police
protection and a curfew. Templeton had heard a
rumor that he and his wife would be arrested if they
returned to Wilmington, so they did not return to
testify.

60 members of the House of Representatives
wrote to Attorney General Bell requesting that the
United States file an amicus curiae brief in the
United States District Court in Raleigh urging a

favorable decision on the defendants’ habeas corpus
petitions. Federal Magistrate Logan Howell has failed
to rule on the petitions, which have been pending
before the Federal District Court in Raleigh since
January, 1976. It is for this reason that the National
Alliance Against Racist and Political Repression,
which has spearheaded the defense movement for
the Wilmington Ten, has called for a national
demonstration in Washington to demand that
President Carter brings his human rights campaign
home.

The Buffalo Alliance Against Racist and
Political Repression is in the process of organizing
for two buses to Washington, D.C. on March 18. For

�Bad press in Richmond
To the Editor.
As a resident of Richmond’s ninth floor, I
would like to take this opportunity to speak of the
press coverage of the recent stabbing. On Sunday
night, I and a few other hallmates were standing in
the lounge pondering over what had happened to
Daniel Cordero. Geoff Seale, a reporter for a local
newspaper began interrogating us about the incident.
“Did you know Daniel?” he asked in utter
anticipation. Mr. Seale’s question evidently fell on
deaf ears as silence filled the room. Seale persisted to
know why we kept quiet. I then referred him to my
R.A, who then told him that he felt “it should not
be discussed on the outside.” Taking the news well,
he said, “No problem.”
Lately, badgering has been a way of life for
some residents in the Richmond Tower. The press
has been a prominent force. I can tell you that if
cameramen had come on the floor during that
trauma, the Emergency Medical Technicians might
have had some other people to treat.
So for the press, just so you get the story
straight, it’s all over. If in the future you’re tempted
to come up here, expect soine resentment. We’ve
been through hell and hell has been through us. Oh
yeah! There’s one more thing. Sensitivity in
reporting. Perhaps an estranged idea in your business
and something you might want to keep in mind for
the future. By the way, it’s easier than you think,
once you learn how to feel feelings and act
accordingly.

Nix TWSA
To the Editor-

In response to the article in Monday, March 1
issue on Guidelines on Third World Week, I say, “It’s
about time SA realized what was going on.” Being a
former, active member, I think the TWSA has been
masquerading under the guise of an “educational and
informative group” long enough. They strive to
“inform” us of the struggles of the Third World

people. But TWSA is not a true representation of
third world people, but rather they are offspring of
wealthy families who are just as oppressive to the
poorer people in their respective countries as the
U.S. corporations are.

To the Editor.

'

On April 21 in Skokie, Illinois, America will
witness the showing of the magnitude of its national
Fascist element. The fact that this element is a
growing undercurrent in the tide of each of our
individual lives is obvious to all of us who have
observed the increasing amounts of racist graffiti and
who are aware of KKK-inspired disturbances right
here in Buffalo; i.c. the recent shooting of Michael
Johnson. This increasing momentum of KKK action
here is only one small facet of the growing
anti-aemitic, anti-Catholic, racist, sexist, anti-gay and
generally anti-human ideology that is breeding
unchecked in our American Democracy.
We, as University students'and a* members qf a
threatened community, can no longer sit back and
ignore the same fascism that went unopposed in
Germany after World War I. The distance between
Skokie and Buffalo is no greater than the distance
between the KICK’S Baily Avenue headquarters and
this University —. the time to organize is now. The
most reactionary forces in America are getting it
together and it is most imperative that we organize
against them.
Several other students and I are in the process of
building a body of people to go to Skokie to
demonstrate against this obvious threat to our
liberty. This and next week there will be a table in
Squire Hall at the Central Lounge where those who
recognize the immediacy with which we must
oppose fascism can obtain information and pledge
their much-needed support.
Smash Fascism in The Egg!

The TWSA is strong marxist group who tries to
stay one step ahead of the SA by not admitting to
this political dogmatism by calling themselves
“educational.” Their publication “Third World
Newsletter” is a strong political statement against
U.S. government. The few original articles are totally
Marxist and their non-ortfinal material is in
furtherance of their political dogmas and, many

�FEEDBACK

Consultants for SA
To the Editor:

Jeffrey Lessoff does not convince me that Jay
Rosen “made his mistake in his solution” to the
student power crisis.,'In Lessoff’s letter to The
Spectrum on March 6th he points out that
consultants are ndt the answer to the problem
because student policy making will deteriorate
within the. Student Association. Lessoff claims that
he “has tried every way possible” to eliminate
apathy and generate input from the majority of the
student body. Well, Mr. Lessoff, if you have “tried
every way possible,” then you have failed “every
way possible.” You have, and it seems without
irrationally
put
down Rosen’s
hesitation,
proposition. How can you possibly underestimate
the success of political consultants to the SA when
yOu have come up with nothing but zeros after
depleting your own solution box?
Students are transient. By the time a student is
qualified to hold an executive position in the SA, the
most he can offer is one or two years of service.
Learning the functions of the government takes time
and when the experience is finally gained, it'is time
to graduate. Ho\y then, Mr. Lessoff, can we “need
people who will learn from their past mistakes?” The
students running the show are apprentices of
government and they will only benefit from the
mistakes they make now in their future lives. When
one takes an exam, there is usually only one chance

to

pass.

A consultant or consultants would be beneficial
the SA in relating past failures 4nd prevent them
from happening time and time again With no one to
point out mistakes we will elect a hew student
government every two or three years that will act
like a five-year-old child trying to ride a two-wheel
bicycle for the first time. The common result will be
to

continuous tjial and error. Can we afford to pay for
the same mistakes ovef and over?
Lessoff also pointed out that “we need leaders
who will continue the good programs and disband
the band.” What are the bad programs? Are they the
root of student apathy? What are the good
problems? Can we make them better? Lessoff makes
no distinction, or even an attempt to make one,
between the good and the bad programs as he sees
them. I am curious to know what they are.
In lieu of Rosen’s solution, Lessoff seems,
though it is not clear, to offer one of his own: “What
the Student Association needs is real input from the
majority of the student body.” His solution to
apathy is simply the elimination of apathy. Isn’t that
great? That’s like saying we can end the problem of
air pollution by getting rid of air pollution.
Participation of the majority is an end of good
internal student government and not the other way
around. We need improvements in the SA before we
can scream at the student body for withholding its
support. A specific, and more importantly, essential
improvement would be the addition of consultants.
That would be one step closer toward both, a better
working SA, and increased student involvement.
It seems to me that the one drawback pointed
out by Mr. Lessoff (Usurpation of power by the
consultants from the students) was not weighed
against the pro-consultants argument. 1 do not feel
that I have to go into any detail as to what benefits
our
student
consultants woujd bring into

government. They are clearly outlined in Rosen’s
column that’s being criticized by Lessoff.
If Mr. Lessoff does not accept my reasoning and
he has tried “every possible way” to alleviate apathy,
what does he suggest now?

Guest Opinion
by the Graduate Psychology Association
The precarious position of the Psychology Department has already
been admirably reported here in The Spectrum (see Monday, Feb. 27).
While the history and economics of this appalling situation can be
adequately related in print, the emotional atmosphere pervading Ridge
Lea is somewhat more difficult to convey.
To be sure, there is a definite undercurrent of anger throughout
the Department, diffusely directed at a host of targets ranging from
Ketter to Governor Carey himself. Moreover, there is a pervasive sense
of fatigue. This is due to months of fruitless meetings with the
Administration to discuss plans and options, only to find that all of
them were unfeasible from the very start. Students and faculty alike
are overcome with a sense of frustration. The fight for our survival and
security has been much like boxing with a shadow, as administrator
after administrator has disavowed responsibility for our plight.
Seemingly the only weapon left in our- arsenal is the considerable
community spirit that has developed in the face of this very real threat.
The evidence is overwhelming that the well-being of the University
as a whole, and the Psychology Department in particular, has been
ignored in the face of economic contingencies and election-year
priorities. As for the SUNYAB administration, its handling of our
Department’s future remains so inept as to appear downright punitive.
It is somehow inconceivable that the caretakers of this institution
could promise the necessary relocation and renovation without having
first checked to see if adequate funds were available. It is even more
astonishing that members of this administration would personally
assure the members of the site committee of the American
Psychological Association of the certainty of this relocation without
having ever developed a coherent, funded plan for its execution. And
now, at last, we are told that any move must be at least two years
away.
it was
Of course, this situation did not develop overnight
literally years in the making. It is hard to imagine that nowhere in our
expansive, expensive State University bureaucracy is there a cohesive

plan for the future of UB and its departments. It is inconceivable that
the State authorities, ensconced in their mall in Albany, never saw fit
to devise mechanisms to ensure the continued health of the University
through this difficult period. It cannot be possible that Albany is
willing to sacrifice SUNYAB as if it were a gangrenous appendage.
As graduate students in psychology, our professional futures are
gravely threatened. Among clinical psychology students in particular,
few would have come here had it been known that the loss of APA
accreditation was possible. Beyond this, all faculty and graduate
students were promised an imminent move from the cinderblock

wasteland of Ridge Lea.
But our future alone is not at stake here. Accreditation problems
are spreading at UB and will continue to spread, as long as the powers
that be continue to be unaware of the human cost of their insensitivity
and negligence We see our problems as a focal point of a necessary
reaction to the State’s policy of benign neglect of its higher education
system.

We are now in a time of our history where we

Absurd SA elections
To the Editor

I guess last week’s headline was, in no small
sense, the initiation to the denouement of a perverse
drama that had been raging for several months now.
There wery no antagonists. There were no
protagonists. There was no hero, and certainly no
heroine. Only the simple presence of some mundane
characters whose eyes did little to belie the vacuous
wasteland that existed just beyond the braided plait
that lay like a broken tether blending in with the
Texan fringe adding to the absurdity. Page after

page, installment after installment, issue after issue
the drama unfolded. Not to a rapt.audience nor to
critical acclimation only the blind stones of
onlookers too long without something to read,
captured like cattle in similar accommodations being
led to metaphoric slaughter, The drama was not
staged on Broadway in some gilded theater attended
by stuffy patrons who speak with a nasal twang, yet
it was patronized by the same soiled greenbacks, the
same lye coated dollars that backed the Chilean
fiasco and the development of the neutron bomb.

threat to their accreditation and academic
integrity is only one consequence of the
steady erosion of this University. As you
know, other departments will shortly face
similar situations. I believe that some
initiative from your office is necessary to
stop this process, and I strongly urge your
prompt attention to this matter.

Student Government. The succession of no’s equals
the lack of personalities of any substance, of any
commital (“fence stradlers, oatmeal men”). The
mundane characters etc. is the equivalent of the
editorial staff of The Spectruift. The audience equals
the students, faculty and staff of the University of
Buffalo and finally the patronizers may be
understood as the status quo, the establishment,
capitalist America, the Power Elite or whatever you
chose. The rest speaks for itself.
There is more than one metaphor here.

1 find it hard to believe that we have elections at
this University, for all they seem to do is give final
approval to The Spectrum's hand-picked candidates.
We, the students, have been relegated to being a
-rubber stamp for previously decided decisions by the
top four editors of The Spectrum and their bumbling
Business Manager, The Spectrum lies When they told
us the interviews were only done by the four top
editors. Mr. Finkelstein, who is famous at this
University for his political deals, was clearly
prejudiced against two of the Sub-Board I, Inc.
candidates, Stephanie Freund and Allen Clifford.
Why was this non-editor allowed to question
candidates for an editorial?
ts it just a coincidence that The Spectrum
picked Seven out of seven of the top candidates?
Anyone The Spectrum picks wins! Who elected The
Spectrum anyway? There are no checks made on
The Spectrum because they elect themselves. Do you
know who will be Editor-inChief of The Spectrum
next year? Jay Rosen„ The decision has, for all
intents and purposes, been made!
The font step in the battle against The Spectrum
monopoly of thought is the creation of an
alternative newspaper to The Spectrum. Then if The
Spectrum decided to endorse an unqualified
candidate, the alternative paper could challenge it.
The only thing that can help The Spectrum is
competition, then they would have to print all the
news instead of censoring out items of interest as
they do now. Oh! You diid not know that The
Spectrum decides what you should know and should
not know! They make no bones about it. Ask them;
they’ll admit that it’s true!
If there was an alternative to The Spectrum,
then The Spectrum would have to back up their
opinions (endorsements) with facts. If you read
those endorsements, you know that I am telling the
truth. Those endorsements were really low class
journalism. The cheapest shot was the line about me
taking an aimless, polemic stance this ye$r. I have
never argued aimlessly. Can you believe that all the
editors of The Spectrum were bragging that'they
wrote that line! You have to understand that we are
not dealing with a professional newspaper, but with
amateur reporters who take out their petty
hostilities on those who disagree with them. As Vice
President for Sub-Board I, Inc., I have been involved
with many projects; one being the movement of a
doctor out to the Amherst Campus. I had to literally
beg to get any articles into the paper concerning this
topic. When an article finally did appear, guess what
page they stuck it on? Page 8. Guess whose name
they mysteriously left out? When this unknown
Sub-Board I, Inc. spokesman questioned them, I
discovered that it was The Spectrum's editorial
policy that my name would never be printed again.
It wouldn't take a genius to realize that I am
hated by The Spectrum. Why? Well, the reason is
that I'm not going to kiss their ass; they know that
I’m not afraid of them. How many people do you
know who aren’t? The Spectrum can ruin any
political friture; The Spectrum can also make anyone
into a hero. Who the hell was Bruce Beyer until The
Spectrum made him into a hero around here? Who
the hell was Jane Baum until The Spectrum got
through with telling us how she sparkled. I’ll tell you

she didn’t seem to sparkle to me! Or even fitter. All
the charisma, in the. world cannot' make an
inexperienced person experienced. Student'
government leaders can be effective if they have no
prior experience, but it makes it doubly hard. 1 had a
great deal of experience and I’m just learning the
best ways to do my job. It’s very possible that the
Aurora candidates were not as intelligent this year as
“Party” candidates. (I don’t believe this to be the
case but...). What we had was that “learned”
knowledge of this University. Richard Mott and the
rest of his party will have to leam at your expense! 1
wish him all the luck in the world. All the same, I’m
glad that I’m not going to be here next year.
“The Party” campaigned on the platform of
revitalizing the Student Senate. No one has ever
suggested to me, while I’ve been Chairman of the
Student Senate, any practical means of improving
the Senat . I’ve brought things to the Senate for
consideration that the rest of the Executive
Committee felt was wrong. The Senate could have
overturned those decisions; it didn’t. The main point
I’m making here is that the Student Senate’s
effectiveness has diminished. It never had much
power, but now it has weakened even more. The
reason is that Senators are getting as apathetic as the
rest of the people at this University. Less and less
students vote in the Student Association elections.
Less and less students run for the Student Senate.
Less and less dynamic, energetic, or interested
students care. A student Senator gets very little out
of his job. However, the Student Senate is what the
Senators make if into.
The only way to take power away from the
Executive Committee is by hard work because if the
Senate does not run Student Association, the
Executive Committee will. In Student government,
the most powerful people are those that are the
hardest workers. It’s a hassle to research subjects in
addition to school work. It’s a hassle to lose sleep for
meetings. It’s a hassle to get called names in the
newspaper, but we live it.
The Spectrum people love their jobs also. What
they do not realize is that only together can we
really change anything.
What The Spectrum has done is to pick people
who they feel they can control. It means more
money for The Spectrum from Sub-Board I, Inc. The
Spectrum people walked around all year telling
everyone how they could be ipcomeu.pff-set in a very
short time. Well, now tjiify realize mat they can’t.
The Spectrum wants to cut down their accounting
costs with Sub-Board I, Inc.-next year. They are on
the road to getting what they want by making “The
Party” beholden to them. Last year, The Spectrum
thought they could control Student Government. In
most cases that has been proven correct. Next year,
there will be no exceptions, unless there is another
newspaper;

In conclusion, I must admit to having had biases
in this election. I had many friends running in the
election and felt they were given a raw deal. If you
feel I haven’t been objective enough, please look into
this matter further. Let us leam from this election!
Let us leam from those mistakes.

who has always had rock and roll

Three weeks ago at Brockport

There was an open discussion held
on rape after
the first night's
performance. To my disappointment,
it was the only one held. It would have
been interesting to hear what, if
anything, the few scattered males in
the audience had to say on the subtact.
The danger in dealing with rape is that
it inevitably takes on an anti-male
stance. This, unfortunately is the
feeling Some Enchanted Evening left
me with. The man I was with felt it
even more strongly; leaving with the
impression that any woman seeing the
show would leave more paranoid than
ever. Perhaps. But it is important that
rape be an openly discussed issue. We
need to share our fears and anger.
Sharing paranoia can only help lessen
it.
A newly-established part of the

Collective has shown with their first
effort that they are an effective and
necessary creative outlet. To help
further its growth, more women are
needed to add their talents and ideas in
whatever ways are neede. All interested
women are encouraged to join. The full
potential inherent in women has yet to
be tapped.

The Los Angeles-based comedian was well dressed and
took obvious pride in his appearance. "I can't understand
white people," he joked, "who buy new used clothing." At
one time he was a clothing salesman, although he wasn't
exactly devoted to it. "We ain't got nothing to fit you, you

customer.
He also spoke of his student days, a subject everyone
could identify with. Ajaye used to cram alot the night
before an exam: "about 12,000 pages." He maintains that
one can read very fast when motivated by fear. "Evelyn
Wood ain't got shit on fear," he added. Oriental students
came under some heavy fire for "working so hard and
fucking up the curve. No, Danny, I haven't finished next
semester's homework yet."
Even health food and cooking were subjected to
Ajaye’s comic treatments. Calling organic food shit, Ajaye
rationalized that, "Adella Davis died at 66 while some winos
live to be 70. But at least she died healthy." He spoke of his
own strange eating habits and aversion to cooking
"I've

Ajaye also told of the difficulty some guys have in
picking up women. Declaring that women hurt your ego and
that brain damage can be a useful source to attract girls.
Ajaye performed a pretty amusing pick-up skit. "No
thanks," he replied in a woman's voice, "I'm waiting for

Not all of Ajaye's jokes were comic highpoints. Some
sank rather quickly. But for the most part he did a good job

Lightfoot's personality shines through

Gordon Lightioot needs no
gimmicks to hold audience
It might well have been the largest coffehouse ever
held. Gordon lightfoot's early show, which was last
Saturday, March 4, at Kleinhans Music Hall, was an
impressive, down-to-earth set of festivities. I had heard
rumors that Lightfoot had an uppity attitude and that he
wasn't a cause celebre in performance. I only wish now that
thosepeople spreading the rumors had attended the concert
with me. There would have been some chewing of words
end ideas.
I have a theory that the farther north one goes, the
larger the appreciation grows for Gordon Lightfoot (there
must be a hell of a lot of fans at the North Pole I). I don't
think any location south of Buffalo could provide Lightfoot
with the recaption he had here. The Candaian influence was
high, folks were calling out to him as if they were kin and
this house was nearly packed.

Lightfoot strolled onto the stage to a hail of applause
and the bolts of flashcubes. Backed by a rather anonymous
four-piece band, he opened up with "Summertime Dream,"
which was guaranteed to bring on a good mood with its
bouncy rhythm. Lightfoot had no elaborate laser display
nor theatrical antics, but used his own folksy personality to
grasp our attention. He Joked several times between songs,
acting at if the audience were • bunch of friends who came
over for a musical spall. Notes from fans were read aloud by

can .be compared to the minstrel-like

characters about whom he writes. He is an incurable
romantic who is usually unique in his approach to a
well-worn subject. His lyrics remaining consistent, the
melodies usually are a hit or miss affair, fortunately more of
the former
On Endless Wire Lightfoot's newest release, this
formula backfires and the effect is mostly bland. Thank
God for small miracles; only three songs from this album
were performed and they were of the better caliber
("Endless Wire,” "Hangdog Hotel Room," "The Circle is
Small"). The sets were comprised of a broad retrospective
of Lightfoot's material, from the early United Artists period
("Early Morning Rain” and "Canadian Railroad Trilogy"),
through his first commercial breakthrough on Warner
Brothers ("It You Could Read My Mind" and "Sundown")
to his most recent well-known compositions ("Wreck of the
Edmund Fitzgerald" and "Race Among the Ruins"). A

batter program of songs couldn't have been picked despite
the brief length of the show, eighty minutes.
Lightfoot in limelight
The single fault of this otherwise delightful show was
the lighting technique. Gordon Lightfoot had a spotlight
solely on himself for practically the whole concert which
wasn't fair to the rest of the band. If any other member had
to be seen, it was Terry Clements, the lead acoustic
guitarist, who had to be heard to be believed. Other than
supplying tricky solos between verses he filled in rhythmic
highlights, such as strumming quickly to imitate a mandolin.

digest such an issue and. with respect
and intelligence, look for some
answers. It is more than sad that an
opportunity to deal with meaningful
issues on television was so watered
down and hyped up in the quest tor a

What this tells us about the

plenty of people who think so little of

the show was a mindless success.

Somer and Snydar were
uncomfortably slick. Their comments
and jokes shot back and forth with too
much polish and speed to allow for any
sense of spontaneity. This was just one
more bit of proof testifying to the fact
that every statement was part of a
carefully conceived script. There was
nothing to suggest that the Writers
wished to use the topics for anything
more than a vehicle for their tasteless
humor.

The show provided no bese from
which e person codld evaluate his or

left no indication of what the scores
might mean. There was a disclaimer
stating that the "right" answers were
based on limited polls and responses
from "experts". What this means I
have no way of telling. I doubt,
however, that it means very much at
all. What I do know is that the show
was staged as a contest. Scores were
compared between women and men.

located at 1115 Elmwood Avenue (near Buff State). The
original store, located at W. Northrop and Main, opened in
December '75, but closed last May. There were severe!
reasons for the termination of the Nerthrup store
one was
a problem of break-ins. On the night of the Blizzard 6f 78,
the store's stereo and cash on hand were stolen. Sam's has
been robbed three other times. Another contribut ng factor
to the closing was the increase of undergraduates living on
the Amherst campus.
Owner Scott Flinn was asked what gave him the idea

to open Sam. "6.98 retail recores

said. Although the original store was very student-oriented,
manager BIN Poczik, estimated that now only about 40
percent of revenue comas from Buff State students. The
clientele is drawn from all over the city, Rochester, and
many from Canada. Poczik-explained, "Record prices in the
States are incredibly high, but in Canada they are even
worse

The prices for the used records range from $2.50 to

Numerous potential sources of activity

Gallery screening

Strict formality
in film's makeup
James Banning exists in an unusual cinematic space. His work, first seen here
in the form of 11 x 14 (screened most recently at the last Evening For New Film
at the Albright-Knox), is not readily categorized. It exists in that hazy, nebulous
space "where Cinema and Still Photography brush against each other with the
tips of their wings" (to borrow Anthology archivist Jonas Mekas' description).
A surface reading sees 11 x 14 as several brief, seemingly inconsequential
episodes, each commencing with a clear (white) "flash" frame and linked one to
the other with black leader film. In each "episode" the camera pays unblinking
attention to formal, tidy compositions, each containing numerous potential
sources of activity. These compositions vary considerably between shots; many
contribute little more than static presence, while others reveal their "activity
potential" simply In a strikingly dynamic, surprising movement. Benning uses
movement within inelastic, omnipresent framing devices (the one constant, the
film frame itself, serves as the title for 11 x 14) as a fulcrum to effect complex
yet seemingly inconsequential strategies and, further, to explore the multiplicity
of each

movement's

meanings.

Falling angels

excitement built up

introduction simply fell apart. It was obvious from the
instant Angel hit their instruments that their musical skill
just didn't cut it. It really looks .like Black Sabbath taught
these guys how to play. The lead guitarist just drongd
through the songs using the same four or five chords
throughout the act. The drummer had a setup that rivaled
Carl Palmer's but he wielded his drumsticks like they were
axehandles. Probably the most obnoxious member of the
group was the keyboardist, who with hi* long blonde hair
and peculiar mannerisms was clearly a Rick Wakeman
rip-off, minus the talent.
The floating and talking holographic head that had
been so heavily advertised turned out to be a movie image
that was projected on a screen behind the group. Talking

An involved response
Thom Andersen, the programmer of the gallery's Evenings for New Film
program suggested to me that one could ultimately question the work as a whole,
in spite of questions relating to compositional ethics, etc. Do the images seen in
the 11 x 14 frame justify the 81 min. length of the film on which they are
printed? I found all of Benning’s compositions and related strategies interesting,
and most of them enjoyable. James Benning's work forced an involved response
favorable and/or otherwise from its Buffalo audience, as f'm sure it has done
in its numerous screenings elsewhere in the past year (Berlin, Edinburgh.
M.O.M.A.). What more can one ask of an Evening for New Film?
The next such evening at the Albright-Knox occurs on Thursday. March 30,
at 8 p.m., when Barry Gerson (a N.Y.C. filmmaker whose style is described as
"lyrical, painterly") will present the local premiere of a trilogy of films shot in

were some bugs in the sound system that kept popping up
all night and screwing up the guitarists. At times the bass

off at home playing bars in Queens because they don't seem

The Word, as Heron hinted, is Now

These movements, plus the rare camera movement, seem t6 determine the
length of individual shots, although a code of requirements for such
"completion" is not readily apparent. After a few such shots, however, the viewer
becomes aware of an unconscious perception of the moment during each tableau
when all the prerequisite operations for a completion of the iiijage have been
performed, resulting in the inevitable blackness and flash frame heralding the
introduction of yet another seemingly still photograph.
The audience, one senses, it polarized by the precisely orchestrated
approach of this mid western! filmmaker. Some are attracted by the potential for
the chance scoring of movement within the frame, then are distressed to learn of
hit relatively strict script (Banning disclosed afterwards the presence of control
elements
the motive! appearances of two women linked to the film's elusive,
elliptical narrative ) in certain shots with greater chance content). Others react
strongly to the formality of his image and color compositions.
Indeed, this polarity occurs within onessalf. Are these images strictly the
property of cinema, if only for thier existence on lengths of 16 mm film? Or are
they an expansion of stylistic concerns extant in the most formal still
photography? Which criterion era theylas photography) or if (the film entitled
11 x 14) to be judged by? One tries desperately to enumerate those elements
which constitute a personal dialectic in Banning's almost-too-elegant wide-angle
colour photography of mannered frame structures.

White and warm?
Most of the songs Angel performed were from their
latest album. White Hot, but judging from last Friday's
concert, it should be changed to Luke Warm. As the lead
singer Frank DiMino was leaping about the stage was
periodically blowing up and I had to give the group credit
for trying very hard, but a good show is no substitute for
talent. Not all the blame should be put on the group. There

Benning created many contrasts and ironic juxtapositions based on well
established codes of conventional composition and editing (Benning revealed
afterwards that the choreography of most of the film's movements was tightly
an equally intricate and important collage of
scripted, and that his soundtrack
sounds whose sources are both obvious and invisible - was the product of five
months of meticulous re-recording and mixing.) The camera examines a
ballplayer throwing a pitch. After an appropriate length of blackness, one sees a
shot of the sky. An airplane, and not a baseball, travels through the frame.
A sizable variety of movements within each single shot are patterned to
great compositional and narrative (however minimal) effect. For instance, a stark,
Ftuscha-like shot of a building with several doors, two symmetrical stairways and
an elevated track traversing both the building's roof and the film's frame is
viewed as a hotbed of potential activity. The fashion in which this movement
occurs varies greatly from shot to shot: single independently mobile units whose
movements are visibly constrained (planes on runways, street traffic) and others
less apparent combine in a number of ways (singly, simultaneously, or sequenced
with slight overlap) to "complete" what would otherwise be nothing more than
intriguing and often beautiful still photographs.

Impressive pyrotechnics and lame music

one by one they magically appeared, from box-like devices
with a flair that would have made Ralph Wilton proud. With
the accompanyment of several flash bombs and the

fire forged realism and melodic mythology of his African
heritage, showing at once some of the most basic and
extended roots of the Music ( A bond he shared with Duke

where his pretence is supportive to the exhibition of Count

Brand's brilliance reveals a common sense that
contrasts with the apartheid policy of South Africa. The
already acclaimed LP Capetown Fringe (on Chiaroscuro)
shows the very flesh tones of humanity in motion. As the
opening segment of this text discussed. Fringe is a Music
unfrocking the infringement we all ultimately suffer under
the colorless color of a self-indulgent fringe. This fringe (as
practiced in our nightmares) is' a freezer preserving nothing,
is not neat. Brand's music (both the R&amp;B flavored title tune
and the open sky psalm of "the Pilgrim") speaks of the
need for all to rid themselves of infringements, their own
inhibitions ruling (potentially ending) their lives.
Brand speaks spiritually thru the total thrust of his
crisp liquid pianistics and flautist's skill. The Children of
Africa (Enja. now on Inner City) summons a conference of
the loas and beautiful ones within us to be born. With the
prime magicks of Cecil McBee on bass and Roy Brooks on

The Sackvilia Shires
In Africa, there is Soignage the magic bath . Clarity
beckoning. At the heart of such running waters sits
Sangoma. The one who beats the drum.
Among the many masterworks of Brand’s career, an
epoch is his two volumes for the Toronto based Sackville
Records. With virtually the highest quality of any "jazz"
(abet in North America (concerning surface sound and
packaging as well as deep aesthetics), the sharp aquatic cry
of Brand's play is brought fully to bear in this first
collection of his solo piano work to be recorded in this
continent.
The first album, Sangoma shows his roots in the
traditions of two continents. The suite “Fats, Duke and the
Monk" portrays Brand crossing the terrain of Harlem, first
from the opening stride step of the Ellington dissonance
which first painted the full portrait of our struggle and our
joy to find in this land.
The-"Single Petal Of A Rose” may hold entire stories,
as the fragrant night spray spun by Brand unveils. "Ode to
Duke" is Brand's word waltzing with an agrassive jitterbug
eloquence, as if sensing the rotund savior-faire of Fats
Waller . . always one step from misbehaving A brief but
bold sweetness of the "Honeysuckle Rose" beats with the
rhythm of ritualistic rain and high priests leading the
congregation into the Dance.
Thus, the rich ptink-plunk of Thelonious Monk enters,
a constructively broken step whose piano rose from the
Duke's orchestral colors and his own grip extending the
stride mastery of James P, Johnson and Willie The Lion"
Smith (not to mention Fats). To merely 'Think Of One" is
to deal with the beauty of the rest. Brand, in concluding the
suite with his "Monk From Flarlem" and "Mumsy Weh",
literally struts his stuff in a demonstration of Monkish wit
and his own musical linguistics.
The second Sackville album, African Portraits shows
Brand speaking further for himself. We see, in the sparkling
spiritual delivery of "Cherry/Bra Joe from Kilimanjaro", the
laugh and the solid faith of the African folksong walking.
Here is a hungry walk, a plentiful walk proud in the
ages, feeling, facing the anguish of envy and all too human
adversity. In this senseless bustle, Brand's music steps
resurgently strong with the energetic promise of Peace

A fhot from 11 x 14

Last Friday night the heavens parted as Angel and The
Godz descended to earth to dazzle the multitude of mortals
assembled in the Century Theatre As we entered the
theatre the, heavens did indeed open up as torrents of
alchohol came down from the balconies (you need a friggin’
umbrella for these 50 cents a drink nights). Precisely ait 8
p.m. The Godz started their set and with the battle cry "We
ain't no punks and we ain't no faggotsl" They proceeded to
blast out a brand of rock that really gave the amps a
V
workout, but only seemed to send the crowd streaming
back to the bar. They couldn't even convince themselves as
they chanted "The Godz are rock and rolll" over and over.
Towards the end the lead singer shrieked that they had
come all the way from Colombus, Ohio, to play here, but
the crowd's response showed that they should have stayed
there. They finished with some scattered applause and
without an encore, thus ending their first and hopefully last
Buffalo appearance.
The Angel concert started off well enough What

SENIOR YEAR.
If you're a junior or senior majoring 1n math, physics or engineering, the Navy has a
program you should know about.
It'scalied the Nuclear Propulsion Officer Candidate-Collegiate Program (NUPOC-C for
short) and if you qualify, you can earn as much as $650 a month right through your
senior year. Then after 16 weeks of Officer Candidate School, you'll receive an additional
year of advanced technical education. This would cost you thousands in a civilian school,
but in the Navy, we pay you. And at the end of the year of training, you'll receive a
$3,000 cash bonus.
It isn't easy. There are fewer than 400 openings and only one of every six applicants
will be selected. But if you make it, you'll have qualified for an elite engineering training
program. With unequaled hands-on responsibility, a $24,000 salary in four years, and
gilt-edged qualifications for jobs in private industry should you decide to leave the Navy
later. (But we don't think you'll want to.)
Ask your placement officer to set up an interview with a Navy representative when he
visits the campus on March 16th or contact your Navy representative at 846-4992.

A social event for short people
short people.
Inspired by the now infamous, rather banal.
Randy Newman hit “Short People,” a party
sponsored by radio station Q-FM and held in the
Bailey Avenue Library’s Stacks last Tuesday proved
to be a friendly, intimate setting for Buffalo’s

shortcakes.
“This idea for a short people’s club came to me
one morning as I was driving to work,” said tall radio
person Jim Santella. The response to Santella’s
mini-brainstorm was overwhelming, he related, as
300 people requested official “Short People”
membership cards, all for the simple fun of it.
Santella hopes to entice local merchants to give
little folks discounts on food, clothes and
entertainment.

During the evening, Q-FM jock Matt Reedy
announced, “You have no one to thank for this
party but Randy Newman.” To a large extent,
though, it seems to have been the media, not
Newman, who are responsible for covering the whole
short people issue.

A big voice
Put in a

unique instance, senior

Village Voice, Robert Christgau, gave both short
people and Buffalo a degree of national exposure in
his February article, “Don’t Want No Smart People
‘Round Here’.” Christgau, who has taken a shortcut
on height himself, seemed to think that the playing
of the Newman song for an hour straight by Q-FM
Music Director John Velschophf was voicing some
hostility against a minority.
But Velschophf claims that he played the disc

Still, Christgau’s angered opinion is typical Of views
expressed by those who were shorter than 5’6" and
were allowed into the Short People’s Party the other
night.

repeated, by the station and became perturbed. “1

the sound
is just plain
nasty.”
Her friend Joyce, a CETA worker here,
intimated, “I change the station every time I hear
the song. Randy Newman just hates short people.”
She said that Newman should have admitted hating
short people right away, instead of hiding behind the
wishy-washy comment holding the song to be a
parody of all prejudices.

But MaryAnn and Jackie, Buffalo medical
believe they are “blessed with
shortness.” ‘‘The song is all in jest,” related
MaryAnn. “I’m proud to be short.”
At the party, women outnumbered men by a
seven to one ratio. Most females attributed this fact
to the theory that “Guys were afriad to come to the
party because they don’t want to admit they’re
short.” Santella thought the height requirement of
5’6” was too constricting for men. “There simply
aren’t that many guys who are under 5’6”.”

A group of professors and

SflNY at Albany is heading a

(UUP),
SUMY
Chancellor Clifford Wharton and
the State Comptroller to court
The group is trying to overturn
a new law which mandates an
"agency fee” for state employees,

The
law
authorizes
the
Comptroller
to
deduct
the
equivalent of union dues from the
salaries of state employees who
have not joined their union.
Called the “Committee to
Abolish Chapters 677 and 678,"
the group originally consisted of a

however, so that the decision on
refunds is being made by the
unions without the guidance of
the law.
The effect of that vagueness,
according to Ekirch, is that
money can be taken from
non-members and spent in ways
repugnant to them.
To illustrate the abuses which
can take place under the law,
Aceto cited the procedures for
refunding
money that were
adopted by the union. “UUP
makes the decisions on the size of
refunds, and places the burden on
employees to find deficiencies in
their accounting,” he said. “And
if an employee appeals the union’s
decision, the last recourse is
binding arbitration, with the
employee paying half the cost.”
The Committee has been
advised that the court battle could
end up in the United States
Court.
“We
have
Supreme
postponed filing our suit until we
are sure we can cover our costs,”
said Sanders, who added that an
appeal for support is going out to
the other SUNY campuses.

Avnue leading
Building. Six and seven years
before (my last sojourns to D.C.),

I had marched up that Avenue
and stood in solidarity with
hundreds of thousands of others
on the Capitol lawn and, in
between choking on obnoxious
tear gas, screamed for Nixon to
pull his Dick out of Cambodia.
Selling the Administration
That solidarity did not
characterize this group of bright,
very well dressed college editors
now listening to Dave Rubinstein,
the Deputy Assistant for
Domestic Affairs and Policy,
perhaps because ho national issue
impresses them enough to harp on
it.
Rubenstein, young and
articulately slick, was more
critical of the Administration than
the others, and outlined its three
major mistakes: not selling itself
to the public (“it is so difficult to
organize a public education
program”), not telling people
what its priorities are and not
“convincing, umm telling, people
what we have accomplished."
Rubenstein labeled energy this
year’s number one domestic
priority, and mentioned how
difficult it is to buck the special
interests of the gas and oil

who have rich,
powerful lobbies and control the
means and research into.energy in
the private sector. Just how the
Administration does that he did
not specify.
Then the room was cleared row
by row for a security check by the
Secret Service men and we found
ourselves out in the long corridor,
getting our promotional packets
searched. Upon our re-entry, Jill
Schuker, Special Assistant to the
Assistant Secretary for Public
Affairs in the Department of
-

State, was defending the proposed
Panama Canal Treaty but
provoked few questions from the
audience, by now distracted by
the TV crews and photographers
moving

in.

Naive proponents
The every popular Midge
Costanza, the Assistant to the
President for Public Liaison and
the highest ranking woman on the
White House staff (who hails from
Rochester), told us how she has
opened up the White House to
special caucuses of people who, in
former times, demonstrated on
Pennsylvania
Avenue. She is

across the street from Forest

immaculate vest pocket park, free
of any residual clutter from its
recycling days. A young woman
waiting for a bus on the opposite

sign there that said recycling, but

Of course, the full brunt of

For

beginning in 1971, the Coca-Cola
plant in Tonawanda offered cash
for beverage containen. Ten cents
a pound was paid for cant, Vt cent
for glass bottles and
non-returnable Coke bottles, and
2 cents each for' returnable Coke
bottles. In the second year of the
Coca-Cola
program
began
donating some of the money to an
environmental research group
rather than to the individuals who

turned in containers. Sporadic
initiatives by businesses followed,
including an aluminum drive by
Tops Markets in conjunction with
Reynolds Aluminum in 1976. All

aluminum
was
encompassed rather than just
cans.
In early 1976 Erie County
considered three proposals by
private industry for alternate use
of solid waste. Plans were
submitted by the Niagara Mohawk
Power
Corporation,
Hooker
Chemical
and
Plastics
Corporation, and the Southtown
Sewage Treatment Plant. When no
proposal had been sanctioned by
the county a year later, Hooker
announced its aim to realize its
plans aqyway.
Hooker’s energy conversion
plant will use solid waste to
produce steam power for its
manufacturing processes. The
projected date of completion for
the plant, which will cost about
75 million dollars, is two years
from now. Ferrous material
(metals) will be extracted from
the refuse and sold, with an
option to extend this policy to
glass and aluminum, if this proves
feasible. Material which is neither
burnable or saleable will be used
as landfill. Hooker estimates it
will have the capacity to process
216S tons of refuse per day.

Hint's garbage
Although there was originally
speculation that Buffalo would
develop an arrangement with
Hooker for utilization of the
city’s waste, no accord has been
seriously
attempted.

Overtures from both West Seneca

Spectrum Staff Writer
Defending champion Boss Players and White Lightning emerged
victorious from the quarter final round of the intramural basketball
playoffs Monday night in a pair of one-sided affairs. Boss Players
crushed the injury ridden Omen 64-45, with a devastating scoring surge
early in the second half. The Omen stayed close in the first period with
some inspired play from Scott Milchman, whose all out hustle and
numerous thefts along with Harry Hart’s one man scoring attack paced
the team.
But some sloppy ballhandling led to the Omen’s dismal fate in the
second half. Boss Players grabbed a 40-25 lead as the Omen failed to
score a basket for the halfs first nine minutes. Fouls were a factor as
Boss Players converted 20 free throws in this half as opposed to the
one they made in the first. Both teams were forced to play with four
men over the last two minutes as Milchman and Mike Bridges fouled
x

out.

The game’s high point Boss Player Terry Diggs’ slam dunk which
brought wows from the crowd. Star forward Diggs shot poorly during
the game, but he combined with Norman Jones to control the
backboards and establish an effective running game. Rob Feldleit
played well in the losing cause as did Hart who scored 26 points.
Greased lightning
In the second game White Lightning trounced Trigger Happy
63-39. White Lightning’s backcourt of Mark Golubow and Steve Silber
had an easy time against Trigger Happy, moving the ball crisply and
setting up easy baskets. After ten minutes they led 20-4 and the game
was pretty much decided. Trigger Happy relied on their “Franchise,”
Art Garfinkel, for the bulk of their scoring, but he wasn’t enough
Garfinkel’s 8 points and Howie Grossman’s 6 provided all of their
teams scoring in the first half. With one second left in the half, Roy
Chipkin hit Golubow with a nice pass, who made a three-point play on
a reverse layup making it 36-14. Golubow connected on several long
jumpers while scoring 13 first half points.
White Lightning executed their plays with near flawless precision,
working patiently for good shots on offense. Their fullcourt press
bothered Trigger Happy as Garfinkel had to bring the ball up often.
Eddie Skolnick'of White Lightning played a strong, all around game,
scoring 13 for the game.
Garbage time
With the issue already apparent the second half became extended
garbage time as both teams virtually traded baskets; White Lightning
had a slight advantage 27-25. Golubow did more driving to the hoop in
the second half. He left with seven minutes to go in the game, after
scoring 22 points. Art Garfinkel finished with 24 points for the losers
as White lightning stormed to victory.
An exciting game can be expected from the forthcoming semi-final
match up between Boss Players and White Lightning. Boss Players
appear to have a manpower shortage but have some excellent talent
and should give the well disciplined White Lightning trouble^

&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;

Suspect pleads ‘not
guilty’ in stabbing
Murder suspect Domingo Rivera pleaded “not guilty” Monday
night to charges of second degree murder and possession of a weapon
in connection with the fatal stabbing of 21 year old Ellicott dormitory
resident Daniel Cordero.
Rivera, who lives in Wilkenson Quad, also in Ellicott, was ordered
by Amherst Town Justice Sherwood Bestry to undergo psychiatric
examination on Sunday. Rivera is being held without bail and a
preliminary hearing is scheduled for Monday night.
Cordero was repeatedly stabbed at 3:55.p.m. in his Richmond
dormitory room on the Amherst campus with a pair of scissors and
died of multiple chest and abdominal wounds at 5:06 p.m. in Millard
Fillmore Suburban HospitalAccording to several residents of the floor where the incident
occurred, Cordero was in his room when he received a visitor about
T30 Sunday afternoon. One witness said she heard screams coming
from Cordero’s room and then two floor residents rushed to his door
when they heard the commotion. The two students dragged Cordero,
who was bleeding profusely, into their room, and held shut his door.
University Police arrived shortly thereafter, found Rivera in
Cordero’s room and handcuffed him. Cordero was given first aid at the
scene by officers Timothy Mourdant and Gary Palefsky. Assisting in
the arrest and the investigation were officers Budnick, Martz, Loga and
Investigator Wayne Robinson.
University Police said that they had interviewed several residents
on the hall where Cordero lived and learned that he and Rivera were
friends, but they had not determined a motive for the stabbing.
At least a dozen University Police officers are participating in the
investigation along with assistance from Amherst Police. They are
looking for possible motives and are in the process of submitting
evidence to the lab. Officers found a pair of blood-stained scisssors
allegedly used in the murder in the hallway outside Cordero’s door.
University Investigator Frank A. Panek, commented, “The
investigation is almost 75 percent Complete.” As of Monday,
approximately one-half of the students who were in the immediate area
at the time had been interviewed. All students were told not to speak
to the press, according to sources.
Cordero was majoring in Speech Therapy and Rivera is an
electrical engineering student. University Director of Public Affairs Jim
DeSantis said, “This is an isolated incident and something like this can

High price of energy

An expensive futurefor UB

“The biggest single electrical
customer in Western New York is

the State University of Buffalo.
UB, with its new Amherst Campus
still incomplete, has budgeted S7

1978-1979.”
Buffalo Evening

With the price of energy
increasing at an even faster rate
than inflation, it is conceivable
that students will be paying higher
tuition and dorm bills in the near
future. According to Associate
Director of Housing Cliff Wilson,
“It doesn’t look like Albany will
increase rates this year.”

Obviously
doesn’t lend itself to a feeling of
financial security.
One student has become very
involved with the energy problem.
Chuck Schwartz, an engineering
major, has done independent
research and work with the New
York Public Interest Research
Group (NYP1RG) and Rachel
Carson College (RCC). In a recent
paper, he asked, “Why is so much
money spent on energy? Much of
it can be directly attributed to
waste.’
He contended, “By
conserving energy an extra $ 1.4 to
2.1 million per year would be
available, to be spent on things
other than fuel.” This represents a
20-30 per cent reduction in the
University’s utility bill.

The new possibility of the sale
came about last week when HFA

That move was necessary because

HFA officials were encouraged
by the relatively low interest rate
negotiated for the $42.75 million
bond sale. Another good sign was
that nearly the entire issue was
bought by banks.
The Buffalo Evening News

quoted Gas-man as saying, “State
University construction bonds are
attractive to investors because the
bonds are backed by student
tuition, fees and so forth.”
The one remaining problem,
however, is that the State no
longer permits the HFA or similar
public corporations to enter the
bond market independently.
Approval for a bond sale must

first be obtained from the Public
Authorities Control Board. The
Board was formed in 1976 to
prevent
State agencies from
glutting the bond market with
State commercial paper.
Before that approval will be
given the State must complete it’s
annual spnng borrowing. “Every
agency has to wait now,” said
Gassman. The State normally
borrows in early April from $3
billion to $4 billion in short-term
notes after the annual budget is
approved.

�Mandatory
deposit for bottles?
by Mary Helmetsie
Staff Writer

Spectrum

A bill introduced to the New York State Legislature and the
Commerce Committee in the Assembly calls for a mandatory five-cent
deposit on non-returnable bottles and cans.
Opponents of the bill fear economic loss for the beverage
industries due to added expense of recycling containers and the
resultant unemployment if less bottles and Cans are manufactured.
The campus-based New York Public Interest Research Group
(NYPIRG) is strongly backing the bill.
However, the New York State Senate’s Task Force on Critical
Problems published a study of the effects of a ban on non-returnable
containers. The report gauged the effects the bottle bill would have on
beverage container manufacturers, soft drink bottlers, brewers and beer
wholesalers.

Influential passage
Analysis of the impact on employment, payroll changes, new
capital requirements, and cost of production changes concluded that

“the container cost savings from reusing refillable bottles more than
outweighed the additional costs of filling, handling, distributing and
returning refillable bottles." For instance, it was found that refillable
bottles for soft drinks should result in a 32 cents per case savings over
non-refillable bottles or cans.
In addition, the Task Force cited the following advantages of the
bottle bill: reduction of litter and solid waste, conservation of natural
resources, consumer savings, energy savings, and employment boosts
At present, the bill is in the Conservation and Recreation
Committee of the State Senate. Chairman of the Committee, B.C.
Smith, is a co-sponsor of the bottle bill, which is expected to pass
without difficulty. Republican Warren Anderson, Senate Majority
Leader, is the other co-sponsor of the bill. Anderson is expected to be
quite influential in its passage on the Senate floor.

Many benefits
A member of the Buffalo area NYPIRG, Paul Maggiotgo, suspects
that the main problem will be to get the bill past the Democratic
Assembly.
New York State Governor Hugh Carey urged the Connecticut
Legislator last year to defeat a similar five-cent deposit plan, because he
thought it would be detrimental to New York State business.
The Task Force pointed out, however, the fallacy in believing that
the bill would hurt industry. The legislation would reportedly provide
an additional 5200 jobs in the state, with an increased payroll of about
$35 million annually.
Some industries now favor the bill. Alcoa Aluminum has
withdrawn its- opposition, because the company is running out of its
resources and sees a need to conserve.

Pails for pollution
NYPIRG, a member of New Yorkers for Retumables, has been
joined in its drive for passage of the mandatory five-cent deposit bill by
another environmental group, Housewives to End Pollution
Presently, NYPIRG is arranging with Inter-Residence Council
Business InC. to have pails outside the doors of the campus grocery
stores so that students can drop bottles and cans. The litter will then be
recycled.

Some legislators have suggested that the State collect the littered
beverage containers for recycling. But Maggiotgo protests that such an
alternative “is treating the symptoms of the problem instead of its
source.”
NYPIRG has been planning strategies to gather support for the
bill. The consumer group plans to write letters of information to the
public, speak to interested organizations and bolster a letter writing
campaign directed at State legislators.
NYPIRG will sponsor a letter-wr iting campaign Wednesday
Thursday and Friday of this week in Squire Hall.

Financing the SA elections
by Kathy Fera
Spectrum Staff Writer

In addition to time, dedication and a touch of
lunacy, potential Student Association candidates
ought to plunge into politics with reasonably healthy
bank accounts. To remain competitive, candidates
must shell out campaign money for publicity to
ensure consistency among the political parties and
individual candidates. A campaign spending limit is
decided upon by the Elections and Credentials
Committee dictating the maximum amount of
money each party may spend.
According
to
Elections and Credentials
Committee Chairperson Robert Whitaker, each party
must keep an itemized account of all campaign

expenses which is then reviewed by the Committee
Campaign‘money, which comes from the candidates’
own resources, must fall witlun the agreed upon
limit During the recent SA election, a one-person
$64.00, a
spend no more than
party could
two-person party had a limit of $84 00, with each
additional person in the party, the limit was
increased by $20.00.

Mike Volan, who ran the campaign for the Epic
Party feels that it pays to spend heavily on the
campaign before The Spectrum endorsements are
printed, “If your party happens to be endorsed, then
you can take it easy on campaigning,” Volan
observed, “but if your party isn’t endorsed, you have
to work two or three times as hard on Campaigning
and it may not even be worth it.” The Epic Party,
which spent four dollars over their limit of $244,
concentrated its funds on posters and platforms.
According to Volan, the professional quality of the
Epic Party’s banners and posters could have been
sacrificed. “Since most posters are tom down
anyway, we should have sacrificed quality for the
quantity,” he said.

Barry Rubin, successful independent candidate
for Director of Student Activities and Services,
found that the most effective campaign expenditure
was the 8x11 posters with his caricature inscribed
on
it “The $64.00 limit established for an
independent candidate is purely unrealistic,” Rubin
said. “As far as student finances are concerned, I
can’t see how any student could afford $64.00 for a

campaign.”

Rubin’s

Over their limit

According to incoming SA Executive Vice
President Karl Schwartz, of The Party, a campaign
spending budget totalling SI52.34 was spent mostly
on 780 posters that were hung just about everywhere
on the Campuses. “Perhaps even more effective than
the posters was the ad that we purchased in The
Spectrum said Schwartz, who managed most of The
Party's finances. “If we could start the campaign
again, we would allocate more money for another ad
in The Spectrum. The students seem to pay more
attention to The Spectrum than to posters, which
are either ignored or torn down.”

that being known in the dormitories through hjs

association with the Inter-Residence Council was a

big advantage for him, along with The
endorsement.

According to Whitaker, it is very hard to
exactly how much each party spends. “They could
very easily spend more than the limit and not teport
it, but the Elections and Credentials Committee can
only work with the reports they receive from the
parties.”

advocates in getting the then-appointed school board
replaced by an elected board. Since then, he has
repeatedly expressed dissatisfaction with the school
board and the election process. “1 thought an elected
school board would be better simply because it was
elected by the people,” the mayor observed.
“However, the people haven’t responded to the
elected board concept. They aren’t coming out to
vote and special school elections are awfully costly.”
For the past month, the financially strapped
school board has waged a legal feud with the mayor
and City Comptroller Robert Whelan over which side
should handle the school budget. The board has
vehemently opposed a city takeover, using dozens of
court precedents to back it up. One such precedent
states that no elected branch of government “may
usurp the authority of any other branch of
government by non-electoral means,” according to a
1919 court decision preventing a mayor from
interfering in the plans of his city’s school board to
institute the teaching of the controversial subject of
evolution.

Flight of fantasy
Griffin also announced that he has asked the
Buffalo Area Chamber of Commerce to conduct a
study of the mechanics of the school department
The school board offered no official comment on
this study but one source asserted that such a study
would definitely look bad for the board and the
mayor knows it. As it stands now, the school board
is already eight million dollars in the red due to the
enormous costs of the city’s new desegregation
program, with only enough money to keep operating
until May I. School superintendent Fugene Reville
has said repeatedly that the courts will probably
force the state to absorb some of the costs of the
desegregation program just as Michigan was forced to
for
Detroit’s
pay
program.
desegegration
Comptroller Whelan termed this idea “a flight of
fantasy.”
x
The school board had also hoped that the courts
would force the Department of Health, Education
and Welfare (HEW) to help defray some of the
desegregation costs since Buffalo has become
something of a model for other school departments

across the country. However, the U.S, Supreme
Court shattered this hope
week in ruling that
HEW did not have to help pay for Louisville,
Kentucky’s desegregation costs. The Court also
upheld three separate Congressional acts forbidding
such subsidies.
However, this eight million dollar deficit doesn't
even represent the least of 3 he board’s money
worries. In 1972, the state legislature passed a bill
allowing cities and towns across the state to raise
property taxes above the limit set in the state’s
contitution Since then, cities have raised property
taxes in order to pay for school costs, while citizen’s
groups have waged court battles to have this act
declared unconstitutional.
If the property tax legislation is declared
unconstitutional, schools across the state will be in
deep financial trouble. Buffalo’s system would suffer
losing $15 million.
the greatest financial hardship
Niagara Falls schools would lose $4.6 million, City
of Tonawanda $1 million, Lackawanna $3.2 million,
Rochester $6 million and Yonkers $10 million in
school revenues.
To make matters worse for Buffalo, the courts
have recently decided that bankrupt companies such
as the Erie-Lackawanna Railroad and firms that
owned the old grain elevators on the city’s
waterfront do not have to pay the hundreds of
thousands in back property tax dollars they owe the
—

city.

&lt;

Undisputably legal
Since it takes at least two years to effect a
change in the state constitution that would make the
property tax legislation un'disputably legal. The
above cities would face these deficits for two straight
years unless the state came to their aid. This would
force the state to raise taxes, or to use the money
presently employed in keeping New York City from
going bankrupt. The problem with raising taxes is
that this is a gubernatorial election year and the
Republicans and Democrats are painfully aware that
if either party supports such a rise in state taxes the
opposition would have the advatnage in the
governor’s race.
At present there is little anyone can do about
the situation until the courts render their decisions.
But school board officials fear that the board’s
problems, while not entirely of- its own making,
could be used to make the board look bad and sway
the referendum against them. The referendum would
have no legal power but could easily decide which
way the Common Council would feel about
continuing the elected school board.

EDITORIAL

Rest in peace
A bright young man will never graduate from this

University. He is dead, the tragic victim of a conflict that
had
nothing to do with anyone, as far as can be
ascertained, save a very few.
The local press has made the incident front page news
not so much because it was a killing, but because it was the
first time such a death has occurred at this University.
The- often-heard comments being passed about on the
buses, in the hallways and on the walkways leading to classes
and they are stupid and ignorantly typical of students here
is that wild Puerto Ricans are running around Ellicott
looking for blood. The fact is, though both students were
Puerto Ricans, the tragic'killing was isolated and had nothing
to do with Puerto Rican students at this University or with
the ■ tatih community in Buffalo. Those who fear the
contrary and who behave accordingly are confirming their
own inbred racism and are running from those whose skins
are darker than their own.
More important now is how a student can be swallowed
by this University feeling alienated, isolated and having no
family, emerge almost four years later frustrated to the point
of insanity, finally kill someone and have his mental
digression go uncared for.
Living in Ellicott for four years could have only
aggravated his discontent and alienation, its physical
hierarchy being as demeaning and ill-conceived as it is.
University officials, as officially hassled by the death as they
must be, perhaps now can impress on Albany how crucial
the construction of a gym is, how necessary full-time doctors
are and how the Amherst Campus as a whole is being
occupied in spite of itself.

Coal talk

Miners, their wives and children, have received no health

insurance benefits during the course of the 93 day coal

strike. A group of concerned individuals here calling
themselves friends of the Miners' Support Committee will
have a table in Squire Hall center lounge beginning
tomorrow to raise money for the Miners' Free Medical Clinic
in southern West Virginia. Educating the University
community about how thousands of men are striking for
better working conditions, safety improvements and real
pensions is important; it is about time such an information
table was established. Look out for coal on the floor.

Your cheating heart
To the Editor

“If you

don’t underestimate us we won’t

trample your face.” Dylan.
Being of sound satirical minds and bodies, we
for two created a bright and clever letter on the
nature of human beings and their interactions with
one another, i.e. cheating. Now some people have
flown off the proverbial handle and voiced
—

slanderous

slurs

concerning

our

educational

experiences. Steve Snyder, an obvious pseudonym
for Merv Griffin, has the audacity to call us
“mindless asses.” We don’t hold grudges but this

goes a wee bit far.
Look, Snyder, it’s people (we use the word
loosely) like you and your depraved attitudes which
perpetuate dishonesty. Your assumptions are deeply

disturbing and perhaps with intensive care and
immediate help you can avoid permanent and total
brain loss. What exactly do phrases like “doomed to
a middle class existence" or “chained to menial
jobs” mean to you?
In fact, isn’t it your kind of perverted fear of
“failure” which motivates the acceptance of
diabolical measures, i.e. cheating. There are but a
finite quantity of “prestigious” jobs in the depths of
the big muddy. Should those who “fail” to attain
them look down on themselves? We for two refuse
-

to pollute our educational atmosphere with thoughts
of wealth and membership to Studio 54.
Are we to believe that success is gaged by
income

alone?

If

one accepts

distorted

that

philosophy then why shouldn’t people cheat? After
all, we can’t all be in the top five percentile. Should
the rest accept a fate of “swearing under their
breaths” at those with better jobs and primer ribs?
Snyder, hypothetically speaking, what if you
weren’t blessed with such a gifted mind, such verbal
dexterity? Imagine if you were only capable of (God
forbid!!) no better than a C average. How would you
feel knowing you were destined to an impoverished
life in the dreadful middle class?
Get off it Snyder, your kind of sickness has
diseased this campus for too long. Indoctrination . . .
education, what’s the difference if you’re not driving
a coupe de ville, huh Snyder? Feel proud not
because you don’t cheat but because as long as
attitudes like yours prevail there will never be a lack
of contestants for Let’s Make a Deal. Hey Steve, we
hear it gets mighty cold up in those ivory towers,
don’t forget your scarf wrap tight now. Oh yeah,
. . .There
we think you’re a beautiful person.
oughta be a law against your coming around . . .”

�Abortion and excommunication
To the Editor

In a recent The Spectrum interview on Catholic
teaching and abortion, K.D. Whitehead of Catholics
United for the Faith rightly pointed out that anyone
who performs, undergoes, or helps procure an
abortion is immediately excommunicated from the
Church. By this censure the Church seeks to
underline how grave a sin abortion is. However, he
was quoted as saying fhat this penalty can be lifted
only by the bishop. This is incorrect, and out of
concern that anyone who is in such real need of
reconciliation might be intimidated by this
statement I wish to clarify it.
In present pastoral practice it is not only the
bishop but any confessor of one’s choice who is
enabled to remove the excommunication for
abortion. Formerly only the bishop had this faculty.
At that time, after the confession and forgiveness of
the sin, the confessor would inform the bishop that a
penitent (who remained nameless) had made his
confession and the bishop would then lift the
excommunication. The penitent learned of this
action when he returned to the confessor and was
then permitted to receive Communion. When a priest
discerned, however, that a sincere penitent was in
such distress that he could not bear to return again,
he could personally remove the excommunication
and inform the bishop he had done sc. At no point
was the penitent’s identity known to the priest
unless he made it known to him and never was this
identity known to the bishop. This war the former
practice. Checking into present practice, I find that
in the Diocese of Buffalo this excommunication is
now removed wholly within the Sacrament of
Reconciliation by one’s chosen confessor.
I hope that those who have this sin on their

but got the impression that they would
have to' personally see the bishop will now let
nothing block their way to a quick return to
sacramental life. The forgiveness of Jesus and of the
whole Church is there. Be reconciled again to God,
and man, and self.
I would like further to respond to a quote from
a group called Catholics for a Free Choice to the
effect that the Church’s teaching on abortion, “has
never been an official encyclical nor an official
Church doctrine or dogma.” First, abortion has been
condemned in encyclical letters of Pius XI, John
XXHl, and Paul VI and by the Second Vatican
Council. But more importantly, I would warn against
setting up criteria of what is “official” teaching and
conscience

claiming that all else is an open question.
Historically, Church teaching has been
defined almost always only at times of widespread
denial of a particular teaching. It is true that no pope
or council has ever solemnly proclaimed that the evil
of abortion is an article of what the apostle Paul calls
then

the faith “which all the apostles teach and which
you believe” (1 Cor. 15, II) and so must be
believed. But neither has the Church ever solemnly
defined the evil of murder, rape, kidnapping,
blackmail, blasphemy or any other number of real
evils. That these are evil is the ordinary, constant,
everyday teaching of the Church. There has never
been any real need to “officially” declare them
sinful. The evil of all these things, abortion too,
should
be
obvious to Christians, and false
meticulousness about what is “official” goes against
the very mind of Jesus who warned against trying to
follow some minimal letter of the law while violating
its spirit.

Let us first thank you for your affirmative
desire to see a comprehensive annual Third World
Week,program with greater appeal to the University’s
student body and which can be more successful than
those of the previous years. This certainly coincides
with the objective of the Third World Student
Association and we can assure you that we would do
our utmost to accomplish such goals.
We would like to point out at the outset that
the planning and organization of the annual Third
World Week, the writing and publication of the
Third World Newsletter, the organizing of other
events and activities such as film shows, plays,
lectures, panel discussions etc., on the third world,
and the participation in the routine day-to-day
functioning of the Third World Student Association
are all open to anyone within the University
community who has a desire to be invovled in the
same. We think it necessary, to clarify, however,
what the third worid is, what the Third World Week
is conceived to be, and how it is generally organized,
so that no erroneous and unfair observations such as
in your letter, are made by anyone in the future.
The third world is not an abstract idea, nor an
academic term, nor is it a definition of geography.
The third world is a product of history,
encompassing countries which have shared a
common colonial past as well as the common present
of striving to realize their national rights for political
and economic independence. The world public
opinion whether as organized within the United
Nations, or otherwise outside it, has clearly asserted
itself in favor of these just aspirations of the third
world countries and people. It is in the context of
this reality that the Third World Student Association
is founded. The TWSA believes that the national
rights

third
world
people
for
and their desire for self-reliant
economic development are just and hence should be
made known amongst the American people.
At the same time there does exist bigot points
of view, unjust and unpopular they may be, that are
based on racial inequality, religious sectarianism, etc.
Not only do they exist as passive-points of view, but
they also assume active material forms such as the
settler colonial regimes in some parts of the third
world. One can cite as an illustrative example the
regime based on apartheid in South. Africa.
Obviously we support neither the perpetuation of
such bigot points of view nor the continuation of
regimes based on the same. On the contrary, we
support the national rights of the indigeneous people
there for self-determination.
And every right
thinking person, we are confident, would agree with

of the
self-determination

us.
We only hope that your suggesting that all
opinions be allowed freedom of expression does not
imply that bigotry such as apartheid be given
recognition and legitimacy. If it does, then, we have

Dangerous spew
To the Editor

We here at the University of Buffalo are very
concerned about a leaking nuclear reactor on campus
and rightly so. What concerns me though is another
deadly menace on campus. As of the writing of this
letter nerve gas and mustard gas are being stored in
the Chemical Storage Building immediately adjacent
to the Health Science Complex. Chlorine gas would
have been added to the list, if it weren’t for an
accident that occurred on February 15 in which a
valve came off a container of chlorine gas and all the
gas spewed out. This accident occurred in the
Chemical Storage Building, but most of the gas
escaped through the drainage and ventilation systems
of that building and contaminated the surrounding
campus area. The accident could have easily involved
nerve gas with much more disasterous results. The
chemicals were in the process of being transported to
chemical storage from the Bell Facility on Main
Street, which is being vacated.
1 believe that these extremely dangerous
chemicals should be moved with the utmost cate to a
saje storage area where they can pose no danger to
'9
the health and life of anyone.

Robert Wise

Third World and SA
The following letter was sent to Student Association
(SAJ President Dennis Delia by Raju. member of the
Third World Student Association regarding the
proposed guidelines established for Third World
Week at this University.

FEEDBACK

to say in no uncertain terms; “We disagree. We
neither want to provide a forum for such views nor
do we think it appropriate to expend student money
on the same.” To this extent, indeed, we are
selective in what opinions are presented on our
platforms.
Apart from such selectivity, the Third World

Week, as well as all the other activities of the TWSA
provide the forum for a variety of views to be
expressed. And it cannot but be otherwise, given the
complex reality of the third world. Different social
and political systems characterize the countries of
the third world and different social forces operate in
each of those countries. This naturally leads to the
existertce Of a diversity of perspectives within the
third world. But what is common amongst them all,
the factor that unites them, is their aspiration for
genuine political-economic independence. It is this
unity amidst the diversity of the third world that the
TWSA attempts to present in all its activities.
Before concluding, we do not want to belabor
on the erroneous ‘.‘fact” that constitutes the sole
basis of your letter. It may be pointed out that much
prior to the formulation of even the theme for the
Third World Week, 1977 letters of invitation were
sent out to every organized third world group within
the University as well as to those American student
organizations, academic departments, etc. that had
shown during the previous year keen interest in all
our activities and deep sympathy .for our goals.
Indeed, some of them chose to participate in the
structuring and implementation of the entire
program while others made available the meagre
resources they possessed. We do not know of any
single third world group that wished to participate
with us in popularizing the third world people's
strive for national rights and self-determination and
yet remained excluded from the same. We always
need more students to work with us and would be
only too glad to involve immediately anyone
interested in our ongoing worfc.
To conclude, let us point out that hardly few
activities within the University draw as much of a
broad response as the activities organized by the
TWSA. The diversity of the audience reflects the fact
that the informational and cultural presentations are
indeed capable of appealing to the broad spectrum
of interests within the University, as it intended by
us. This is in stark contrast to narrow, sectarian,
religious or other activities some others choose to
organize expending large amounts of the student
money.
We have been encouraged and enthused by the
more than adequate expression of support shown by
the
University community including the SA
Executive Committee While we believe that we can
improve our work many a' time more and in a
number of ways, we do not agree with the erroneous
basis of your letter. In short, your effort at
stipulating any criteria is irrelevent because such
criteria (ire already in effect in our practice and
constitute a
of principle governing our
functioning.

Third World Student A ssociation

Fascism breeding
To the Editor

Today in America there are far too many
examples of a sickness that is manifesting itself
during this economic crisis. On the surface this
country appears to be experiencing only bits of
problems here and there. But again, they say, “don’t
worry about it; it could nevef touch us,” Yet, to
believe this is to ignore this country’s unmentioned
sickness which is making itself felt.
To be specific, the disease that is spreading its
most horrible vehom through the person named
America is designed as Fascism: 11 is now appearing
in Detfoit;it will sdon'appear in Skokie,'Illinois, and
has a pretty much permanent residency in our own
Queen City Buffalo.
In Detroit the American National Socialist
Party, the Nazis, have opened a headquarters in the
southwest part of town. In response to this “grand
opening” an .alliance was formed. It is made up of
students (yes, that’s right, students), unionists and
members of the community. This alliance staged a
protest demonstration at the Nazi headquarters on
February 6, 1978. Two hundred fifty people were
there to fight Fascism. A leaflet put out by this
alliance said its purpose was to set up a “joint
-

labor committee to determine what is
needed and to take necessary measures.”
Recently much controversy has centered around
the question of whether or not the Nazi party has
the right to express their freedom of speech in the
form of a march on April 20 in Skokie, Illinois.
Federal district judge Bernard Decker said yes they
too must be given the freedom to express their
feelings. His decision seems very liberal-minded
indeed, but the fact is that a majority of Skokie’s
populace survived the concentration camp era in
Germany and need the
like Buffalo needs a
longer winter. Also what needs to be mentioned is
that April 20 is Adolph Hitler’s birthday.
And now we come to Buffalo. When one drives
up Main Street towards UB, they can see painted on
the Hertle Street railroad tracks the remnants of a
profound KKK statement
Nigs Suck. But that is
not all that the KKK do in their spare time. They
have instigated race riots at Riverside High School by
handing out racist literature and have also shot
Michael Johnson in the throat. Michael is an eighteen
year old black man.
Therefore, Fascism, whether it is in the form of
a white hooded racist or a brown-shirted Nazi, must
be confronted and stopped because it presents a
“clear and present danger.” But it is not enough to
rant and rage about the menace. We must act.
Facism must be opposed wherever it raises its putrid
form What must be done then is this: First we must
organize to send people to Skokie in order to defend
our beliefs and, more importantly, the people of
Skokie; and second, we must begin to form a
city-wide alliance to oppose the Buffalo KKK.
During the week of March 6-10, there will be more
information on where and who to get in touch with
in order to carry out these tasks. Smash Fascism!

fascinating.
Why am I no longer ecstatic? I began to think
about' 'What happens when my regular professor
returns! The two instructors teach as differently as
night and day, one is theoretical and abstract, while
the other is a fact and date man.
The entire continuity of the class has been
disrupted. It is no longer just the problem of what to
study, but from whose point of view should I
emphasize. What was left out, and where does one
begin and the other professor leave off. Other
problems arise too. According to my class syllabus, I
have a paper “due in March.” My regular instructor,
even when pressed, did not elaborate as to when the
paper is due, nor what this proposed paper is about.
The ncwprofessor was given no information as to
anything about it.
I realize that there could be many a reason for
any professor’s prolonged absence, but I’m equally
!

sure that none, save death, are excusable. This course
is a required one in the management department, so
its knowledge must be of great importance. If this is
the case, why didn’t the management department
have the foresight not to schedule a course with an
instructor who would be missing a large portion of
the session?
■
And, finally, what of my classmates and I, do
we receive a refund for the period that this
instructor is out? He’s probably getting paid for it.

Autocratic editors
To the Editor.
At the candidates’ forum in Porter Lounge on
2/27/78, much was said abdut your
endorsements of certain candidates and the obvious
monopoly you have on such statements. Most of the
opinions that were airid by the students were
negative toward your having the only say based on
closed interviews. Several suggestions were made as
to better ways to serve the University cpmmunity.
John Reiss and Paulette Burczynski merely smirked.
After the forum I oame up to them with the
suggestion that the Interviews,-not your impressions,
be printed. They had a good laugh at that and told
me that if I wanted them published I could
transcribe them myself.
Besides wishing to air this idea to you, Brett, as
well as to the University community, I would like to
ask Managing Editor John Rdiss what the fuck he’s
doing on the student paper if he isn’t willing to work
for the student body?
Having worked for The Spectrum for a month I
have no trouble understanding why it must advertise
for workers in the middle of the semester. I found
my editors (I worked for Campus Editors) autocratic
and narrowminded to style as well as content, and
the general attitude of the editors to their staff, and
especially to the students they are writing for (!),
both elitist and arrogant.
Again, in the name of Objective Reporting, I
would like to suggest that you dedicate yourself to
the once-in-a-year importance of student elections
and put out the extra effort and pages necessary to
cover the candidates to the fullest. If you people are
really in favor of students getting active, you should
provide them with the services they need to work
intelligently but independently as individuals.

I am writing this letter in the hope that you, and
those that read it, will gain insight in the workings of
this University from the story I am going to relate.
Upon my arrival at my organized behavior class,
given through the management department, I found
that my usual professor was not reigning over the
spacious blackboard. In place of the familiar face of
my instructoi, there was a new face.
This new face began instruction with the
announcement that our “regular” professor would
not return fora “few” weeks. When,I first heard this

professor to possess the many capabilities necessary
to make an effective professor. In addition, after just
one class, I was able to tell that this new face did
have the necessary capabilities to be a fine
instructor. Furthermore, I found him almost

Wilmington Ten.
field organizer for the CRJ, was dispatched to
Wilmington to aid the boycotting students. The
United Church of Christ confirmed it had invited
Chavis because he had experience in volatile
situations, and being a native of Oxford, North
Carolina, he could ndt be cast as an outside agitator.
Usi g the Gregory Church as headquarters, the
boycotting students and supporters met nightly to
plan strategy for subsequent demonstrations and
negotiations with school and city officials. In 1971,
white vigilantees began to ride past the church and
shoot at it. In conjunction with the local KKK,
ROWP led nightly attacks on the Gregory Church
while students met inside. Rev. Templeton stated
that “white night riders were circling the church and
shooting at us.” Chavis later testified that he was
unable to calm the situation which had already
deteriorated at the time of his arrival. Chavis also
maintained that the blacks inside the church were
armed in self-defense. The charges against the Ten
stem solely from the circumstances surrounding the
burning down of a white-owned grocery located near
the church one night.
Witness attacks Chavis
In April 1972, a probable cause hearing was held
which revealed for the first time that a convict with
a history of mental instability had been induced to
testify against the Ten. At one point in the hearing,
the prosecution’s key witness, Allan Hall, attempted
to attack Rev. Chavis. This occurred while Defense

Attorney Ferguson was cross-examining Hall about
his activities during the 1971 racial conflicts. Caught
in repeated contradictions, Hall became infuriated
and burst from the witness chair in another attempt
to attack Chavis. Despite this incident, probable
cause was found.
Upon motion by defense attorneys, the trial was
moved , to an adjoining county. It began in June
1972, in- Burgaw, North Carolina (Pender County),
and after a week of jury selection, ten blacks and
two whites were accepted by the defense. The
prosecutor then became unexplainedly ill, and the
judge declared a mistrial.
In September 1972, the second trial began
before a jury of ten whites and two elderly blacks.
The trial lasted seven weeks, with 42 witnesses
taking the stand. Allan Hall, the prosecution’s key
witness was again infuriated by the doubt of his
credibility, and lunged forth at defense attorney
Ferguson. All but one juror ran from the courtroom.
The defense requested a psychiatric examination of
Hall, which was denied. The judge admonished
Ferguson for intimidating the witness. Soon after,
the verdicts were handed down and the Ten were
convicted. In December 1974, the North Carolina
Court of Appeals upheld the convictions of each
defendant. The court held that the trial judge did
not abuse his discretion in conducting the trial. An
appeal was subsequently filed with the North
'Carolina Supreme Court and in May 1975, that court
declined to consider the merits of the appeal.

During the past few months, over

Time for a change
The Somoza dictatorship could
conceivably survive this internal
opposition for a few more months
or even years, but reports from
Washington indicate that the
Carter Administration has decided
that the time has come for a
change. If this change is in the
cards, then Nicaragua’s wealthiest

Debayle seized an opportunity to
bleed the 2.2 million Nicaraguans
further by obtaining an interest in
Plasmaferesis, a firm which buys
plasma from poor Nicaraguans
and sells it abroad at expensive
rates.

This, declared Pedro Joaquin
Chamorro, owner of the daily
newspaper La Prensa, is “an
inhuman trade in the blood of
Nicaraguans.” The next blood to
flow was Chamorro’s. He was
assassinated in
January while
riding through one of the many
areas of Managua still lying in ruin
from the earthquake.

Even though the Bulls lost by a
four goal margin, Wright felt that

exception of five or six minutes in
the third period, we played well
enough to win,” he said. “But as

lack

discipline was our

downfall.”

OT gang
Although this season has been
frustrating, Wright still has reason
to be proud. “I guess you could
call this team the OT (overtime)
gang. We won five of five overtime
contests. We
also made
the
playoffs, and yet we’re a young
club,” he stated.
The irony of the Bulls’ season
was that the defense which was to
be the club’s strong point was
weakened by injuries and other
problems while the goaltending
and forward lines which were
questions at the start of the
season,
through
came
in
reasonably fine fashion.
“Kaminska played well against
Middlebury but got tired near the
end,” said Wright. “I guess the
whole team got a little tired. It
was a long, tiring flight up here.”
The Bulls will have most of the
team returning next season as
leading scorers Frank Anzalone
and Christ Bonn are the only
departing seniors. There were only
two junior's on this year’s club
with the rest of the squad being
comprised
of
freshmen and
sophomores.
“We’re going to have to be
more aggressive,” stated Wright.
“This means we’re going to have
to try to recruit some bigger
individuals, especially for our
defense. We’ll also be looking for
another freshmen line.”
But, the always realistic and
optimistic, coach added, “If we

disciplined players we can win the
Division II crown, but we need

victory.

But the next morning, UB was handed its second loss when beaten
by Cornell 37-17, The victor’s quick thinking and passing proved to be
too much for UB’s once reknowned defense.
It’s a game that combines the quickness of basketball, the stamina
of soccer, the strategy of football and the temperment of hockey.
However, the motive is simple
score.
Two teams consisting of seven players line up on opposite ends of
the field. The, game begins when the defensive team “throws off” the
frisbee to the opposing team, much like a kick-off in football.
-

Pass

don't rurt
Usually the frisbee is tossed the entire' sixty yard length of the
field or beyond into the opposing team’s end zone. After it is caught,
that player is allowed to run just the few yards to his own goal line.
After that, running with the frisbee is illegal, only passing is allowed.
Any kinds of passes are allowed
forward, backward, lateral, even
upside down, as long as the frisbee doesn’t touch the ground.
Defensively, the strategy is mostly one on one, harassing the
thrower and covering the players in the end zone. Offensively,
basketball style fakes, pivots, and passes are employed to get that

-

frisbee into the end zone.
But emotionally, It’s not equivalent to scoring in basketball, it’s
more of a touchdown euphoria each time. Especially when the one
point score has been made on a beautiful thirty-yard “floater” pass.
Then a frisbee spike is.sure to follow.
Win or lose, it’s an action packed game. Neither side will give in to
defeat no matter what the invisible scoreboard reads. Instead,
catch-pivot-fake-pass and score continue to be the name of the game
throughout the two twenty-five minute halves.
And when the pressure 1$ on to score, The Bubble suddenly
transforms into a battlefield. It’s a beautiful, sometimes bloody war to
watch. Beautiful when a pass is floating across the end zone and two
players are vying t« catch or intercept it.
Bloody perhaps sometimes because most anything goes in this
game. Although body contact is disavowed, the phantom referee Is
seldom around to make the call.
The players tell tales of broken collarbones, concussions and
countless bruises that have been encountereUn this ultimate edition of
frisbee.
What makes this group of twenty-five players submit themselves to
such brutality? Certainly not fhe money and not the roar of the crowd,
for because they tecbive little of either.
The team was given a budget of $250 by the Student Association
but it hat already spent half of that going to Albany for a tournament.
As for their fans’ piercing cheers and leers, the players sure would
appreciate some more; there is no admission
charge, so it’s a freebie of

The team’s schedule of games is not quite set,
but they usually

Did you ever wonder what became of a frisbee during its off
season the winter?
No, it doesn’t go into hibernation, burying itself under seven feet
of sand at the beach. Instead, it flies over to the Amherst Campus and
makes “The Bubble” its winter runway.
There was a lot of flying Saturday night when the UB Frisbee 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;

Student victim of
fatal dorm stabbing
Daniel Cordero, a student at this University, was fatally stabbed
yesterday afternoon in the hallway outside his 10th floor room in
Richmond Quad in Ellicott on the Amherst Campus. A senior
management major here, the 21-year-old Cordero was stabbed
repeatedly in the chest, stomach, back and legs. He was pronounced
dead at 5:06 p.m. at Millard Fillmore Suburban Hospital.
Domingo Rivera, 22, a student here and also an Ellicott resident,
was taken into custody soon after the stabbing by University Police,
Rivera was being held as a suspect in the case but no charges had been
laid late Sunday night. Informed sources said that the motive was
most likely personal and that the killing was not indiscriminate.
University Police were informed of the stabbing at 3:35 p.m.
yesterday. Shortly before that time, Rivera allegedly knocked on
Cordero’s door and attacked him with a pair of scissors. Three
students are being questioned as witnesses to the incident. Other
students on the floor tried to intervene to no avail. One student
administered first aid to Cordero as he lay in the hallway but was
unsuccessful.
The murder was the first ever recorded at this University since it
became part of the State system in 1962 No records are available
from before that time.

�EDITORIAL
Power and responsibility
So, approximately

2900 students have just picked the

new Student Association (SA) officials who will represent

close to 14,000 undergraduates. Some people take the SA
elections very seriously; many more apparently don't give a
damn about who wins and who loses, figuring that the
outcome of a game played by aspiring politicians and
lawyers has nothing to do with their personal lives and that
the whole event is a silly drama.
,

Nothing could be farther from the truth, though the last
four years have brought out approximately the same number
of students to vote in each election. And in each of those
last four years, a cry repeated by many went something like
"Bring SA back to the students."
This year, that task has been harder than ever because
very simply, SA is where the students are not. The new SA
officials, who take office on March 15, had best overcome
the normal transition difficulties as quickly as possible and
had best find something to excite students, something about
which they can think seriously, something that will touch
them personally and make them scream with anger or
anticipate with laughter.

It must be something less innocuous than a Spring
Weekend (although now passed on the referendum, if
properly organized it will be a truely positive happening) but

No to consultants
To the Editor

Jay Rosen in his front page column, “Exile on
Main Street,” made many interesting comments

about student government. No student can disagree
that the problem of apathy at this University eats
away at the entire structure of student government I
have long ago given up the dream of leading "the
protect march. What I have not given up on is the
future of students and student government. We peed
competent student leaders. We need people who will
learn from past mistakes. We need leaders who will
continue the good programs and disband the bad.
What the Student Association needs is real input
from the majority of the student body.
How do we get all this? I’m not quite sure. For
the last three years I have tried in every way
possible. This University dqes not wake up to issues
often. It seems to be getting worse Mr Rosen
definitely outlined the problems very well. Where 1
feel he made his mistake is in his solution. The
answer is not to hand over Student Government to
consultsnts. Because anyone can see that the result
will be just “Government,”. Students will lose what
little policy-making decisions they have now. Jay

The campaign was not without its more amusing

�5000 signatures need

NYEA bargains for faculty
application of OER rules

by Brad Bermudez
Campus hditor

Members of the New York Educators
Association (NYEA), campaigning here in
an effort to become the bargaining agent of
the 16,000 State University of New York
met with
(SUNY) faculty members,
resistance from faculty members of the
present bargair.ing agent, United University
Professions (UUP).
President of the Buffalo Chapter of the
UUP R. Oliver Gibson has requested that
lobbying NYEA officials be escorted off
this campus by University Police.
V
Under the Taylor Law, enacted in 1967,
the UUP may be challenged in a six-month
period prior to January 1, 1979 when the
UUP contract opens for negotiation.
NYEA must gather 5,000 SUNY staff
signatures by August to be granted an
election by the Public Employment
Relations Board. NVEA has already
garnered 4,000 signatures.
Efforts by SUNY Vice Chancellor for
Faculty
and Staff Relations Jerome
Komisar and Gibson to deny NYEA access
to this campus are based on Office of
Employee Relations (OER) guidelines
issued in 1975, which prescribe a 90-day
for
campaign
period
organizational
activities, beginning, in this case, May 1.
NYEA officials claim that the 90-day
campaign period is an unreasonable

NYEA coordinator James Schmatz said,
"We will find no one here during the
campaign period which is scheduled from
May through July. At that time, teachers
won’t even be interested.” The NYEA has
filed for litigation in court to be allowed to
campaign prior to the May 1 date. Because
of the lengthy court procedure, the NYEA
does not expect a decision until this
summer.

In the meantime, NYEA officials will
disregard the OER ruling and will- pursue
any legal means necessary to remain on
campus, according to Schmatz. He said,
“To be ushered off is unreasonable. There
are no laws saying we can’t be here and we
will stay until we're ordered by court to
leave.”
NYEA Field Representative Melinda
Frazier cited specific instances in which
NYEA officials were escorted off the
campus by University Police. “Last
Monday, one of our representatives was
removed from the Amherst Campus by five
security guards. We were also asked to
leave
Lea Campus and were
threatened to be escorted by security if we
didn’t,” Frazier said. She added that
Buffalo State College officials were even
more oppressive and have “literally chased
NYEA representatives off the campus.”
NYEA officials believe they have a

time. Said Frazier, “We’ve been talking
with faculty here but we are not invading
anyone’s privacy. Officers of the UUP have
been forcing us off the campus and we feel
they
functiorling beyond their
are
authority.
Faculty disillusionment
Schmatz and Frazier have found a
general disillusionment with the UUP
among faculty members at this campus. Of
the 16,000 SUNY faculty members, only
4500 belong to the UUP. The Agency Shop
Law passed by the State Legislature last
year forces more than 11,000 non-UUP
members to pay approximately $1.7
million in dues. “There is tremendous
resentment of the UUP for picking up dues
from the almost 75 percent of the faculty

who aren’t members,” said Schmatz. The
NYEA does not oppose the Agency Shop
Law, but will not implement it if 50
percent of the SUNY faculty members do
not join.
The
NYEA is also calling for
decentralization and specialization of
contracts for the SUNY system and the

Friday’s article on the Medical School here contained serious factual errors. The
School will receive $488,000 in additional funding from the state. Those additional funds
are committed to pay increases for employees. This wxs not made clear in the article.
Also, the total increase in funding to all the state Medical Schools is $23.3 million, not
$233 million as Reported. Thus, approximately one 48th of the total increase to Medical
Schools statewide will go to SUNY Buffalo’s Medical School The implication that the
Med School here will operate on one 48th the total operating budget for the four medical
centers was false. The Spectrum apologizes for these errors.

�Origin of women’s oppression complex question
by Elena Cacavas

ContributingEditor

-

In a lecture entitled “The Origips of Women’s
Oppression” Elisabeth Kennedy, an associate professor of
American Studies and a founding member of Women’s
Studies College, examined whether women have always
been oppressed, and the predominant theories of the
origins ofoppression.
In explaining the origins of oppression, Kennedy
relied on three prominent schools of reason. She first
referred to what she called a “dominant ideology" which
states that women are naturally inferior. Emphasising that
this assumes women have always been oppressed, she states
“If this were the case there would be no reason to consider
the question.” Secondly, she said that feminists have to
gauge the extent of oppression so as not to make it seem
too remote. The third school of thought dealt with Marxist
ideology and the conclusion that the writings of Engel are
in no need of updating. Terming this “outrageous,”
Kennedy theorized that since the time of Engels
considerable new data has been gathered. “Now, we are
prepared to confront biases,” she said.
Kennedy expressed the belief that feminists are
“dragging their feet” on the origins question. She pointed
out that besides satisfying a general intellectual interest,
the debate was pertinent to some contemporary situations.
She said rape crisis groups must deal with the question: Is
it natural for men to control their aggressions? To
feminists, the debate can perhaps indicate whether theyare
“pushing too far when seeking the right to choose.”

but also replacing women’s occupations such as making

concept of hunting by the lecturer. “The explanation

shown that herding followed agriculture which was
invented by women.”
The three major theories of the origins of oppression
have “The first possibility concludes that oppression pevcr
existed,” said Kennedy. “The early hunting, gathering and
horticultural societies were egalitarian.” In support of this
she cited “the most prolific” works of anthropologist E.
Leacock and her study of primitive communism. Leacock
established that the .household was communal and division
of labor reciprocal. ‘There existed no public world of
men’s work and no private world of women’s work,"
~

clothes, etc.
Kennedy termed Leacock’s interpretation “accurate”
pointing out that the anthropologist’s justification of her
argument was based on the fact that without a
concentration of material power, there can be no

hierarchical relationships.
Re-evaluation
In mentioning other writers and discoveries that
support the theory of “no oppression,” Kennedy was sure
to notify the audience that problems exist within the
arguments. “There is a tremendous amount of work to
re-evaluate,” she said while pointing out that, “Most
people lump a Urge range of society into the primitive
category and assume them classless.” She added that all
cultures are studied in the context of this century and thus
distorted, while data gathered has been collected with a

oppression. Acording to Kennedy however, “Followers-in
this area haven’t done any first-hand research. They have
rather relied on sources with dogmas of women’s
inferiority to men.”
Kennedy felt that unclear data led to three so
distinctly different positions. ‘The possibilities all have to
be worked together and considered as parts of an
argument,” she said.
■ Debates as to the actual origins of oppression are
sustained by three theories. The first, to which Kennedy
pays Bttle attention, states that the reason for oppression
rests within a biological sphere such as childbearing. The
lecturer said, “It requires a tremendous constancy in
history” and thus did not View it as the most productive
approach.
*

Sexual kinship
Another theory reduces women’s oppression to the
economics of the rise of private property. Subjugation
resulted from a material dependency of women. Again

WHEATON,

Countless times during the past
four years, UB basketball fans
have watched number 21 streak
down court to score yet another
layup for the Royals. But, it is a
scene that will be seen cheered no
longer, for Regina Frazier has
scored her last point for Buffalo.
The talented little guard from
Albany closed out a brilliant
career here Tuesday night with a

career high 38 points against
D’Youville College. The point

record, would have meant much

make sure he stayed out of

The Royals’ co-captain feels
she’s matured as a ballplayer since
her early days. “1 used to consider
basketball an individual sport.
But, it’s not that. It’s five people
out there with all different kinds
of talents blending together.”

Big Four wins
Early in the season, Regina
thought she should lead the team
in scoring, before she realized that

qfae could be more valuable

to the

team as the point guard. Some
trouble with her outside shooting

this year made her more aware of
how important the other areas of
the game are. “My defense was
good; I just wish my offense had
been just as good,” she said.
Frazier looks back on a home
game against Canisius this season
as a personal highlight. In that
game, she picked up a loose ball
and raced the length of the court
to score the winning bucket. A
fine free throw shooter, she had a
streak of 16 consecutive foul
shots during the year. The biggest
tvin for the team, she said, during
her four years here was at the first
Big Four Championship in 1975,
when Buffalo demolished Buffalo
State for the Championship.
During her career, Regina said
she sometimes got too cautious on
steal attempts after the referees
inadvertently penalized her for a
clean swipe. “One game I got
three fouls trying to steal the ball.
It stops you from playing like you
can play.”
Like many others, Frazier is
less than pleased with Clark Hall.
“You’re more involved with the
people in the stands than the
game because you’re so close,”
she said. “It’s uncomfortable.”
That’s just one of the reasons she
finds road trips more enjoyable
than home games.
Listening to music, watching
television and playing chess are
some of the ways that Regina

Food Coop and UCARE protest

Radioactive transfer blocked
by Robert Basil
Staff Writer

The internal transfer of fifteen
radioactive fuel rods to a
temporary storage tank within the
campus Nuclear Reactor has been
blocked by two groups who
question the safety of the shift.
The North Buffalo Food Coop

(UCARE)
an ad hoc committee
of students and faculty
filed
petitions with the Federal Nuclear
Regulatory Commission (NRC)
alleging unsafe procedures in the
operation of the reactor. The

Reactor officials abandoned the
transfer idea since the hearings
called for in the petitions would

removal of the radioactive rods.
The October leak involved a
flow of 500 gallons of water per
day, carrying radiation alleged to
be 277 times the level allowed by
the NRC. Nearby sewers carrying

Task Force considered

Bunn will address students onfour course load

Managing Editor

In an effort to demonstrate that the University Administration is
not “hell bent” on implementing the three credit for three classroom
hour policy as an academic base here, Vice President for Academic
Affairs Ronald Bunn said Wednesday that he would address the
Student Senate on March 14 concerning the matter.
It is assumed that Bunn will

can only be worsened, they say,
by the increased number of
courses that students will be

University is currently $250,000
short in its funds for busing, yet
even more buses will have to be

“Now the burden is on the

�The quality of the
Buffalo education
by Jay Rosen
Managing Editor

Ondergraduate education here has simmered on the back burner
for many years while the University attempted to bring graduate and
professional prgrams to a full boil. Although the drive to develop
SUNY Buffalo into a preeminent graduate center will clearly extend in
the 1980s, a genuine concern for the neglected undergrad program is
now taking hold in many areas of the University.
It is widely felt that the Undergraduate program here because of
its loose “distribution” requirements and strong emphasis on a
has become incoherent, directionless and
particular major
counterproductive in forging a sense of academic community among
students.
The feeling is that SUNY Buffalo is increasingly churning out
students who have limited exposure to, or appreciation for any school
of thought other than their academic major. The pendulum of
undergraduate education has swung too far toward vocational traning,
long on specialized
leaving students intellectually imbalanced
knowledge and technically oriented thinking, short on traditional
academic skills and familiarity with a wide range of disciplines.
Born of of these fears is a move at this University toward “General
Education.” What is it? In some ways it is the antithesis of
Specialization. A group of concerned faculty members who held several
day-long retreats on the subject f&amp;lt that General Education ought to
encourage four things: the capacity for critical thought, a body of
general or “common” knowledge, the introduction to the actual
activities of faculty in a wide range of disciplines, and the personal use
of the creative arts.

Opposite banks
Associate Professor of English Murrary Schwartz, in his report
summarizing the groups discussions, wrote that ‘The University is a
{dace for enhancing the quality of personal and social life as well as a
place where skills are transmitted that keep machinery of society
going:” In other words, this school ought to provide its students with
some sense of their world as well as the means to perpetuate it.
Conceptualizing General Education and making it work lie on
opposite banks of the river. The bridge between the two is currently in
the “committee” stage, but make no mistakes
the undergraduate
program at this University will change and change significantly.
A standing committee of the Faculty Senate has been empowered
to develop a program in General Education. While the originally stated
goal of having an implementable plan by the fall of 1979 is by no
means assured, it appears that within two years', some program will be
readied. ■%*' *;'■
Before attacking the question of what General Education will
mean to students, its effect on the faculty ought to be examined.
Because of budget cuts and other more nebulous divisive forces, the
reducing interaction between departments
faculty here has splintered
and ripping apart any community of scholars which may have existed.

on the issue. He believes that the

enough to recognize that the

center of libraries, classrooms and

“We will cripple the ability of

For the third and final time, Tuesday night,

presented their views in an election forum held in
the Richmond Cafeteria. SA candidates for

an extensive question and answer session.

his valuable experience in SA would make that
possible Finally, Robinson claimed that “things
need to change.”
The Party candidate for Executive Vice
President Karl Schwartz, prefaced his comments by
bringing up The Spectrum endorsements which have
generated considerable controversy in the elections.
Schwartz believed the only reason he received the
endorsement was because “I am the best qualified
for the job.” He drew a loud applause when he
commented, “If 1 am elected, 1 will fight hard to
allow every student organization the right to

with a list of thirteen “demands” for the University.
These included open admissions, free tuition, a
return of classes to Main Street and a halt to racist
University policies. Friedman termed the University

The candidates for Vice President for Sub-Board
were allowed a brief two-minute statement. Allen
Clifford acknowledged that troubles exist in the
present organization and that the use of the
computer would help ease many of the difficulties.

Experience plays a part
Jane Baum admitted to not knowing as much as
she will when she takes office. “What is different is
that I have new ideas." she said. She was incensed at
the idea of having non-students in stipended
positions, describing it as “disgraceful."
Stephanie Freund also criticized The Spectrum
endorsement by blaming the paper for “omitting
qualifications." She said, “experience plays a great
part in choosing a candidate.” Her ideas included the
establishment of a Sub-Board Travel Service, the
acquisition of a liquor license for Sub-Board and
improving the effectiveness of University Union
Activity Board.
The debate session began with a question to
Mott concerning his views on procuring construction
funds and whether he plans to approach the
gubernatorial candidates for promises prior to the
election. Mott responded by calling for a coalition of
students,
administrators and public officials.
“Albany is not set to respond to just students," Mott
said, “but they will answer to 100.000 Western New
Yorkers. These people care about the building of this
campus." The other presidential and vice-presidential
candidates agreed on the importance of const ruction
and felt that strong student effort could be used
effectively to put pressure on Albany.
Sinkewicz was questioned about his plans to
lobby for funds to keep the libraries open 24 hours.
Sinkewicz felt it could be done by having President
Ketter allocate additional funds and reassign present
funding.

for Sub-Board, replied, “Sub-Board needs a

When Kerouac is mentioned,
responses range from
“Who’s he?” to “Oh yeah, On the

was that Kerouac is “a cultural

His writings can be taken at face

or broken down and

Yes, but who is Jack Kerouac
and why is he so important? First

the Who. Jack Kerouac was born
dean-Louis Kerouac in the town
of Lowell, Massachusetts in 1922.
His parents were French-Canadian
immigrants and strict Catholics.
He left Lowell in the late 1930’s
to attend Horace Mann Prep
School in New York City on a
football scholarship.
After Horace Mann, he went to

Kerouac left Columbia after
one year because he couldn’t play
football due to an injury. He
worked as a merchant seaman and
at several other jobs until 1950
when his first novel, The Town
and the City, was published. After
that, he published many more
works; On the Road becoming the
best known. Kerouac died in 1969
from what was probably cirrhosis
of the liver.

And now the Why. Well, Jack
Kerouac was one, if not the,

centering abound the 1978 theme of “Women’s Right to Choose.”
International Women’s Day events here have focused on specific
themes since the day was first celebrated in 1975, except when only
general issues were confronted, in the first year. The976 program
concentrated on “Women’s Work” both in the house and the
community while “Women’s Resistance” was the theme for 1977.
Program possibilities for this year were “Violence Against Women,”
“Beyond The ERA,” and the chosen “Women’s Right to Choose.”
One of the outstanding issues of this year’s program centers on
reproductive freedom. Specific categories within this scope are the
recent cutbacks in Medicaid funded abortions, the forced sterilization
of poor and Third World Women, the right of all women to choose
whether to have children and the economic means to raise them, and
the right of women to keep their children.

Mott was questioned about the formation of an
advocacy committee. Commented Mott, “For the
first year, the SA lawyer will be our advisor. Since
SA pays the lawyer, this will be our system of checks
and balances.” Mott also gave full support for the
idea of a new student paper, but said he has no
specific plans for one.
As the forum drew to a close, the sincerity of
candidates Schwartz and Mott was questioned
Schwartz, as a spokesman for The Party, took
personal offense to these inquiries. “I am not in this
for ego gratification,” he said. “The present SA is at
best inept and all of us involved in The Party are
honestly concerned with changing SA.”

Abortion controversy
According to a co-coordinator of the International Women’s Day
Coalition, Debe Gnann, the impact .of the Hyde Amendment on the
above considerations will be discussed. “The Hyde Amendment,” she
explained, “is a bill passed by Congress in December of 197-7. It cuts
-back Medicaid funded abortions.” Gnann emphasized that while the
Amendment appears to affect only women on Medicaid, it is a “clear
example of the rights gained by women which are now being taken

vO°^

away.”

A brochure distributed by the Coalition refers to the Amendment
as “a serious attack on control of our lives as women.” It explains that
while federal funds have been cut back for abortion, there is a steady
rise of forced sterilization of poor and Third World women for which
funding has increased.
The international Women’s Day Coalition is a community group
with diversified support. Included in the Coalition are six women from
the University’s Women’s Studies College, members of the National
Lawyer’s Guild, the Buffalo COop Council, various other city groups,
and independent progressive women.

University community
Gnann recognized the importance of women’s studies being
extended into the community, noting that the College has done work
there for four years. “While the College is based in the University, it’s
very strong in the community.” She felt that students involved with
the women’s movement now will in four years or less become a part of
WfWtt»(iBity.
A member of the Coalition, Susan Biller, suggested that there are
definite differences between operating within the community and
operating within the University. She said, “Being in the community
yields an entirely different perspective than can be gotten through the
college. It also involves a very different constituency of followers.”

t

Community celebration
Gnann pointed out that the Coalition’s events of March 4 are a
community celebration. Included in the program are speeches,
information tables, a luncheon, and a march from Lafayette Square
downtown. She said that the coordinators of the program tried to plan
the day so as to encourage a wide range of support from the
community? “It is believed,” she said, “that the march would give
people a chance to get out and show their support publicly.”
Another reason for trying to attract new faces is because a major
criticism of past programs has been that those groups which organized
the events, were generally the ones to participate in them. The
Coalition is emphasizing that International Women’s Day is a women’s
holiday through which all women can be educated on current issues
and future inteerests.
The Coalition’s events on March 4, in celebration of International
Women’s Day, were planned in recognition of women’s past and
ongoing struggles. Those involved with the day view it as a celebration

SUNY application hurts enrollment
by Gary Gutenstein
Spectrum Staff Writer
A ten percent decline in freshman applications here is part of a
three and a half percent overall drop in applications to SUNY schools.
The SUNY-wide decline can be attributed to three major factors,
according to Assistant Vice Chancellor Norman Hostetler. He
attributed the largest decline to the common application procedure and
late submittal of applications by students.
For the past few years students have been able to apply to as many
as four schools using just one application with a fee of five dollars per
school. This year the fee was raised to nine dollars per school resulting
in a substantial drop in the number of multiple school applications.
The overall number of applications therefore declined, Hostetler
claimed.
Another factor contributing to the decline is a rising negligence of
students to apply early. “Students don't feel the need to submit their
applications as early as they have been in previous years. Guidance
counselors just aren’t pushing as hard for November-December
applications as they had been,” commented Hostetler.
The late availability of financial aid forms may also have
contributed to the belated filing. “Students did not receive them until
December and they couldn't be submitted until January 1, so they
didn’t apply until then either,” said Hostetler.
Assistant Director for Admissions at this University Jonathan
Shellum, attributed the decline in this region to the weather as well as
to economic downfalls. “A lot of students come to us from downslate.
After last year’s blizzard they see us as an artic wasteland. We are

presently trying to combat this problem by stepping up our
promotional programs at high schools,” he said.
There has also been a great increase in unemployment in the
Western New York area. “Some people just can’t afford to attend
school anymore,” he said.
“There hasn’t been a decline of applications for a specific quality
of student,” Shellum continued, “rather it has been an across the board
decline.”
The other three SUNY universities have felt a decline in freshman
applicants. Binghamton had the lowest decline with only a five percent
drop, Albany experienced a six to eight percent decrease, and Stony
Brook had a ten percent slack.
The largest drop in student applications has hit the fields of
teaching and liberal arts. “There just aren’t enough jobs to go around in
these fields and the students realize this,” said Hostetter.
Spokesmen from the three SUNY centers agreed that the decrease
in applications is due in part to a growing disenchantment with a

had decreased and that it would continue to decrease through the
1980’s. This will obviously affect the number of applications. The
spokesmen did not feel, however, that this decrease would markedly
affect the quality of the students at the four university centers
markedly.
Private schools with comparable academic standards do not appear
similarly affected. A spokesman for Cornell University said that the
number of applicants to that school had actually increased about five
percent over last year.

Up the fee
To the Editor

Scrap the move
The student clubs and services which have occupied the
third floor of Squire Hall for many years, should certainly
not be dislocated to Amherst's Talbert Hall as proposed by
SA President Dennis Delia.
The move would rob the students living near Main Street
of their activities base and would not guarantee that the
clubs and services would be revitalized.
The isolation of the Amherst Campus would reduce the
ability of the organizations not based in Squire Hall to
function effectively and would alienate them from most of

To theEdUpr
After having read thaarticle on travel between
Buffalo and New York City, by Cari Weiss, in the
February 27th issue of The Spectrum, I feel it
necessary to come to the defense of Amtrak, Having
ridden Amtrak trains on the Buffalo-New York City
“Empire Route” on numerous occasions, 1 believe
that the overall negative image of Amtrak service
which Ms. Weiss conveys is unwarranted.
Although a far cry from the days when the old
New York Central Railroad mainline from New York
City to Buffalo was the home of the finest fleet of
passenger trains in the nation, the service provided
along this route by Amtrak today, is much improved
from the poor level of several years ago.
Presently Amtrak is operating three daily trains
each way between Buffalo and’New York City. Two
of these trains, the “Lake Shore Limited” and the
“Niagara Rainbow” carry full dining cars, in which
passengers may eat complete meals chosen from a
menu offering a good deal of variety. The food is
usually excellently prepared, artd prices are quite
reasonable. Both of these trains also include lounge
cars, where passengers may purchase beer, liquor,

soft drinks and snacks. The third train on the route
is a brand new “Turboliner,” whose plush interior
closely resembles that of a jet airliner. Services on
this train include fast food and snack service and a

first class,

or “parlor”

car. The Turboliner’s primary
that it is scheduled to make the
Buffalo-New York City run in eight hours and 10
minutes, rather than the nine hours allotted to the
other two trains.
Faster schedules should be in effect soon, as
work continues to improve track conditions along
the entire length of the route. Already, Amtrak
trains are allowed 79 miles per hour along some
sections of track between Buffalo and Albany. 1
doubt if a Greyhound bus on a parallel road would
pass a train at the speed.
In general, the trip between Buffalo and New
York City by train is usually quite pleasant and
relaxing. One final comment to Ms. Weiss: if you
detect a “distasteful odor” in the train, check the
bottom of your shoes
you, must have stepped in
something before you boarded the train, because in
all of my train trips, I’ve never noticed, or heard a
complaint of any particular “distasteful” odor.

�Medley of famous
bits: rip-offs or
creative comedy
in High Anxiety'?
by Gerard Sternesky
Arts Editor

I've been trying, for a long time and with little success, to figure
out why Woody Allen and Mel Brooks are so equally appealing to so
many people. My first approach was to look for similarities between
the two, thinking that there must have been one or two nutshell
explanations besides the depressingly obvious fact that, along with Carl
Reiner, they are the only major figures in today's American film
comedy, and people are perhaps

But movie history down to size, the

If the world of music were truly regulated by the National
Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences, then the conservatism so
rampant in radio today would be as. consuming as when Volare won
record of the year in 1958. Maybe the Grammys seen last Thursday
night with that smilingly nauseating chipmunk of an artificial artist,
John Denver
really are a joke. Maybe they never intended to
celebrate excel lance and innovation. Either that or the Academy
cannot compute the equation: purity
equals
anarchy or purity
equals
energy or purity
equals
any number of attributes that
could be associated with damn few award winners Thursday night.
Let's face it as far as these old farts (and you don't have to be
aged to be a gas) are concerned, the new wave could never have existed.
My best new artist category could have included Talking Heads,
. You didn't hear
Television Cheap Trick, Elvis Costello, The Jam
these names at all. Instead: pebby Blech, Shaun Cassidy, Foreigner,
two others just as fuckin' innocuous. Not even Karla Bonoff! The new
music that is one of the only hopes for a saving the excited energy,
condemned again to non-recognition. Well, maybe it’s better that way.
Because it seems when you're embraced by the elite (economically
speaking), you lose it, whatever it is
touch with yourself, creative
perspective, identification with your audience. It's been too long a time
since these polished faces were scramlin' down in the street, for sure.

there were plenty). Asher, who has a heavy hand in the shaping of
Ronst$dt's music and public persona, picked up his grammy as the

and she was ignored for her art and talent. It's positively revolting.

Thumbin' down tharoad
The one encouragement of all the rock awards was the
nose-thumbing no-show from the Eagles. It made it more satisfying
that it was the top award of the night. The. embarrassed scanning of the
camera and Andy Williams' frozen smile were great when they went
unrewarded.
But aside from that and few other minor moments, the grammys
were, on the occasion of their 20th anniversary, an artistic vacuum. If
their purpose was to honor musicians and their art, NARAS failed
miserably. If it was to satiate itw own starfucking urges, it was a
blazing success.
A final note: The program after the grammys presentation was The
Tonight Show, featuring Johnny Carson in all his arid urbanity.
Johnny's featured guest was David Steinberg, a nice Jewish comedian
from Canada. Carson and Steinberg were having a simulated discussion
about music. No nominees, no songs, no producers, no nothing. Not
criticism nor praise. The center of their attention was who would need
their noses cauterized the next day (everybody). But strangely enough,
this chic chit-chat about trendy trivialities seemed twistedly
appropriate.
And if that isn't a snow job,

I don't know what is.

Lightfoot
Psychically gifted people are invited to reed
Gordon Lightfoot's mind at 8 p.m. at Kleinhans
Music Hall on March 4. Lightfoot, a Canadian
singer-songwriter, also it known for such hits at
"Sundown" and "Care Free Highway". He alto has a
reputation for, coincidentally, being on the scenes of
natural disasters at sea and composing songs about
them. Tickets are available at Squire HaH Ticket
Office.

Dave Van Rank

Stage personality
adds to artistry
Put together two things that happened in the Fillmore Room last
Friday night, and you have the essence of Dave Van Ronk.
The fiest that was when he was singing that old Brownie McGhee
song: "This old night life
this old sportin' life
is killin' me . . .
Think of more than twenty years spent in grimy corner coffeehouses
and on streets and squares in New York City; of criss-crossing the
country in cars on buses, very seldom on planed, from small club to
college to festival to small club, grinding night after night, then doing it
all again after all too short a break
a night life, a "sportin'" life (at
best), and-, make no mistake, a killing one.
The other was just after Van Ronk finished "Sunday Street", the
title song from the Philo album that put him solidly back on the map.
It's one of his own songs he doesn't write much, but his originals are
very much in his owrt voice, tailored to fit him tb the last Stitch, and
this look at "the King of Tap City", confident of better days on the
way, is no exception.
"I wroW that one in a rare fit of good humor", he divulges. "I’d
just kicked two Moonies down an elevator shaft." And he chortles
the most unmistakeable chortle you've ever heard. He does so mostly
to himself
that was'who that little aside was mostfy for, anyway.
He coaxes a chortle out of himself after practically every song.
Why hasn't the sportin' life killed Van Ronk? The chortles are one
reason; he's never let himself forget how to laugh. The other
reason is
his music.

The gentle music of Margaret and Daniel MacArthur, and Bob White, who draws
from the history of American folksong, is this weekend's feature at the UUAB
Coffeehouse, tonight and tomorrow night at 8:30 p.m. in the Squire Hall Cafeteria.
Margaret, her son Daniel, and their family live in southern Vermont, and their songs
come from that state, as well as the Ozarks. She accompanies herself on dulcimer, in a
appealing style, and on lap harp a small, one-of-a-kind harp with a
very unusual
lovely, ethereal sound. Daniel is heard on vocals and his self-built guitar. Going
refreshingly against the "professional musician" grain, the MacArthurs, making their third
Buffalo appearance, are down-to-earth people, well-loved by friends and fans, and fine
musicians above all.
they
Bob White's songs come from the heart of the American folk tradition
include songs by Woody Guthrie, the Carter Family, and Jimmie Rodgers, as well as
friends like Malvina Reynolds and Mayne Smith. He sings and plays with honesty and
care, which is rare in itself, and he's won many friends around the country, including
Buffalo (this is his third time here too.)

Beyond the curtain
Hardly anyone acquainted with Van Ronk would register any
surprise upon finding he had kicked a Moonie down an elevator shaft.
It fits his image, resembling as he does the bouncer at the Grizzly
Bears' Picnic, hunching over bis guitar with his hair hanging before his
face like a tattered curtain, growling out his hardass blues. With
authority. Oh yes.
Van Ronk has developed his don't-mess-with-me personality into
such an engaging show that it's only on some reflection that one
realizes what a remarkable musician he is. His voice ean handle both
t he nuances of Tom Paxton's reminiscence of Mississippi John Hurt
and the wild scat-singing that concludes "Candy Man", Van Ronk's
version pf which is second only to Rev. Gary Davis' original,
instrmentally, he's one of the few singer-guitarists who actually seems
to craft his guitar runs to match his songs; his guitar solo of "Maple
Leaf Rag" is as skillful and serious as Scott Joplin would have wanted.
When you combine an amazingly wide grasp of the blues and
ragtime idioms, a deft and intelligent instrumental technique, a craggy
and blustering voice that belies the gentleness it can portray, and a
great stage personality, then a song becomes a show, a concert becomes
a celebration
and Dave Van Ronk, y-clept "blues singer", becomes
an artist.

weekly reader

Calder: An Autobiography With Pictures, by Alexander Calder
(Pantheon Books, New York. $7.95, 286 pp.)
Alexander Calder was a modern original artist and the creator of
the mobile and the stabile. He coupled a childlike ability to capture a
whimsical spirit with the vision of an adult in utilizing and
encompassing space. Like the man himself Calder: An Autobiography
With Pictures is honest, straightforward, and unpretentious.
The book's style is informal. Calder relates events and experiences
his
life that begin with early childhood and continue inin
chronological order to the book's completion in 1966.
An artist speaks through his work, and the reproductions
dispensed throughout the autobiography are essential in acquainting
the reader with Calder. His progression is reflected in an assortment of
major museum pieces, smaller works and quick sketches, all of which
are arranged for easy reading and facilitate a thorough enjoyment of
the art.

Kim Darby and Henry Winkler
Maybe she has a thing for lunatics

At Como and Colvin

'One
and Only'question:
Could you like this person?
by Michael Silberman
Spectrum Arts Staff

Some people get by on sheer talent, others by
good looks, and some are simply charmers. Henry
Winkler in The One And Only plays a charmer. As
Andy Schmitt, he is a puzzling character, an
appealing person on the surface but ultimately
somewhat revolting. Even Kim- Darby (Mary
Crawford), his on-screen lover, has doubts about
him. She rationalizes their marriage by explaining, "I
was too embarrassed to have you for a date."
Director Carl Reiner has a share in this
embarrassement too because he has given us a
protagonist with few redeeming qualities.
Although some of his remarks are amusing, it is
nearly impossible to sustain any sympathy or
compassion for Schmitt. The movie begins in black
and white with Andy, as a child, entertaining family
friends. In this brief scene it becomes apparent that
the kid is a manipulating, self-centered, talentless
wise guy. Sounds appealing doesn't he? Worse still,
as the film progresses, he never really changes; Andy
grows older but not up.
Sufficiently enthusiastic
After the opening scene the film jumps to an
Ohio college, circa 1951, where an energetic Schmitt
burns the candle at both ends and somehow manages
to avoid getting scorched. He is neither a great actor
nor a superior athlete, yet his enthusiasm seems
sufficient. On the football ffatd he feigns injury to
get an ovation and onstage he cheaply undermines a
tragedy by turning his one line into a one man death
.scene. There is no stunt he won't pull if applause is
in sight.
Even Schmitt's come-ons are coarse and vulgar.
“Hey do you pick your nose", he asks Crawford, “I
can't imagine anyone so pretty picking their nose."
suppose, because he's
She goes out with him,
different. Or maybe she has a thing for lunatics.
Reiner apparently feels that love is inexplicable' and
the coupling, to him at least, is plausible. However,
their relationship seems to me too far fetched. On
dates Schmitt interupts Crawford with pleading lines
like, "Hey let's talk about me.” When he meets
another man seeking her affections, Schmitt breaks
into hysterical laughter. During lovers' quarrels he

name-calling. Yes, Schmitt gets the audience he so
desperately needs but what Crawford gets, besides a
migraine, is beyond me.

often resorts

The obligatory scenes
After they marry, the newlyweds go to New
York City, where Schmitt is convinced his Broadway
dreams will come true. He eats in all the right
restaurants and gets rejected for parts by all the right
people. Yet he never once doubts his own ability;
that would take too much intelligence. Instead he
finds his audience in a different arena, one which is
professional wrestling.
more suited to his talents
With his flair for overacting and his need to stimulate
crowds, he soon rises to the top as The Lover, a
flamboyent Gorgeous George
type performer.
During his gradual rise to fame we see the
obligatory scenes of the young couple's troubled
romance. Will she leave him or not? The tension
mounts like a tired department-store shopper
climbing stairs on Christmas Eve: slowly, if at all.
Schmitt obviously doesn't deserve her devotion
(after all he has his own). The reconciliation scene
after they split up comes off as nothing more than a
naive and juvenile attempt to stir up audience
emotions. If she had half a brain she would have left
him long ago. And permanently.

for mass approval to the fact that he was an orphan
"They were killed in a car accident. Don't say

and thus insecure. But there never seems
to be any depth or real substance to his character.
Crawford at one point asks "Are you always"
proclaims our star. However this problem, which
Reiner apparently couldn't deal with, is quickly and
conveniently forgotten. It is merely an effort to gain
instant sensitivity for an egotistical character. At the
film's conclusion, everyone and everything Schmitt
comes face to face with a real dilemma. "I don't
even like the dictates. Schmitt, mindless to the end,
bathes in his fanfare without having sacrificed
anything in achieving it.
I for one am grateful he's the only One And
Only. At the Como Mall and Colvin Theatres.

Also included are photographs of Calder at different ages with
fanfily, friends, and in the studio.. Through these, the art world he was
born into and the places he lived in take on their rightful significance.
Calder's autobiography is, to its credit, not a collection of distant
memoirs recorded for the amazement of readers. Calder simply tells
what he remembers about childhood friends, neighborhoods and
schools. He explains that his father and grandfather were sculptors,
that his mother was a painter, and that he himself, at an early age, was
encouraged to be inventive. He recalls having small workshops and
being the center of attention with peers because of his ability to make
things from the most unlikely garbage.
Various faces and names are continually flashed throughout the
book. Calder had a world of acquaintances and friends which he
connects to various exhibits and incidents. The Calders traveled
extensively, and An Autobiography With Pictures abounds with
descriptions and memories of their travels, such as this excerpt from a
journey to South America . . .
We met Kelso Peck who had King Carol's suite on the top of the
Copacabana Hotel. We all danced the samba violently, but Kelso did
not know how to dance. So instead he would do cartwheels and every
time he went round all his pens and pencils fell out on the floor. We
kept picking them up for him.
Contemporary artists had some influence on Calder's style. He was
part of a group in Paris in 1930 called "Abstraction-Creation",

including such artists as Arp, Mondrian, Robert Delaunay, Pevsner, and
Jean Helion. He isolates a visit to Mondrian's studio as a shock that
started things."
'Though I had heard the word "modern" before," he writes, "I
did not consciously know or feel the term "abstract". So now at thirtytwo, I wanted to paint and work in the abstract."
One of Calder's most unique creations was his circus, began early

enterprise.

Gradually, Gaidar's art attracted notice, earning him shows and an
occasional advertising assignment. He never stifled his experimentation
for the choice of being secure. His work began to take on larger
dimensions and by the end of his career he was designing huge metal
"stabiles" which had to be constructed in foundries.
He did a commission for the Brussel's Fair called "The Whirling
,r
Ear, and a giant mobile for Kennedy Airport. By the time of his deaths
in 1976, Calder had major exhibitions in the Guggenheim, Museum of
Modern Art, and Whitney Museum in New York and in the Musee d'art
Moderne in Paris. His art is acclaimed world wide, and is in permanent
collections in South America, Asia, the Middle East, the Soviet Union
and numerous American cities.
Calder: An Autobiography With Pictures in a voice that is
distinctly Calder's. It is more than just a progress report or a
celebration of conceit. The book succeeds in combining the spirit of his
life with the genius of his life.

Guest Opinion
This commentary against the arming of University
Police here was co-signed by the following people:
Molefi Asante, Professor and Chairman, Department of
Communications; Frank Brown, Professor, Department
of Educational Administration: Berkley Eddins,
Professor, Department of Philosophy: Gene Grabiner,
Asst. Professor, Department of Social Foundations of
Education, Gail Kelly, Asst. Professor, Department of

Woock, Professor and Chairman, Department of Social
Foundations of Education.
President of the Student Association (SA) Dennis
Delia has submitted a referendum to the undergraduate
student body to decide whether campus police should
be armed. The proposal is on this week’s ballot.
We, the above-signed, are opposed to arming the
campus police. We give our reasons below.
The issue of arming the campus police is a re-run of
past history. In the Fall of 1969 when Eugene Murray,
then head of campus security forces, requested
sidearms, Murray said that such a request was already
one of “fairly long standing” (The Spectrum September
17, 1968). The demand for arms for the campus police
is as equally baseless today as it was ten (and more)
years ago. The author of the campus police force’s
“Guest Opinion” in last Friday’s The Spectrum
1978)
24,
(February
seems bored
over the
“repetitiveness of the issue.” After expressing such
disdain for the tediousness of concerns of members of
the University community, the letter’s author goes on to
assure us that the “purpose of this letter is not to take
any stand on the issue.” However, the balance of this
two-thirds page letter in The Spectrum is consumed
with arguments for the arming of the campus police
First we are told that in 1976, UB ranked third in
serious crimes and fifth in overall crimes out of the “30
municipalities in Erie County reporting to the New
York State Department of Criminal Justice Services.”
While this sounds impressive, we are not told on what
basis this ranking is made. For example, the FBI
Uniform Crime Reports include two methods of
generating crime rates. One is based upon complaints
received by police. The other is based upon arrests made
by police. In the latter instance, there are no guarantees
that the person(s) arrested for a crime or crimes are the
author(s) of those crimes. Simply basing the crime rate
on arrest statistics is a false way of looking at crime The
historical and contemporary experience of the
Afro-American, American Indian, Chicano, Puerto
Rican and poor and working class white populations and
their relationships with the police highlights this point
While police reporting techniques continue to list crime
rates by arrest and crimes cleared by arrest, it doesn’t
necessarily follow that the police always arrest the right
person. Furthermore, with the hiring of more police,
there is a tendency for there to be more arrests. Hence,
the more police on the job, the greater the crime rate!
That says nothing about the actual rate of crimes
committed. Next" the “Guest Opinion’s” author states
that in “1977, the University of Buffalo had a higher
total crime rate than any of 1 2 villages, 8 towns and 2
cities in Erie County. UB also had a higher crime rate
than Buffalo State College, which-has unarmed campus
police. (Based on the argument of our campus police,
Buffalo State should have high crime rates until the
campus police are armed as a deterrent. But, that’s not
the case.)
Additionally, if the crime rate on the UB campus is
calculated only on the basis of the 26,000 students,
fully 2000-3000 staff (who are also part of the
to
subject
and
criminal
University
community
victimization) are excluded. Were they to be included
(as
they
should be) in the Campus Police’s
computations, the crime rate would be lower.
Furthermore, precisely because of the close
character of social interaction on this campus, events
and circumstances which might go unreported among
the general public (e g., damage to a maple tree and an
unraveled fire hose) tend to get reported. This increased
frequency of reports might inflate the rate of calls
received by Campus Police. However, that is not the
same as increased crime rate.
We are then given a listing of calls (not reports oj
crimes) received by campus police in 1975. Of the entire
list of 4774 calls, 1049, or 22 percent constitute crimes
that fall into six of the seven major categories of crime
listed in the FBI’s Uniform Crime Reports. The seven
and
non-negligent
categories
are:
“myrdej
,

-

manslaughter,” “aggravated assault,” “forcible rape,”
“robbery,” “burglary,” "larceny-theft” and “motor
vehicle theft.” When we break down these 1049 calls to
campus police into the above categories, we get the
following picture for 1975:
Table I: Calls Classified by Campus Police which fall
into one of Seven Major Offense Categories Designated
in PHI Uniform Crime Reports, 1975.

On 'the balance of 3725 calls, 1300 were answered

“persons to hospital in police car” (another expression
of the positive, or service function of policing) etc. The
remainder were non-criminal and non-misdemeanor
actions such as 25 “attempts to locate a person,”
“swamped boat,” etc. A few non-victim “crimes” and
more seriously defined situations (some perhaps
definable as crime) remained

The third most frequent occurrence is “Harassment,” a
vaguely defined circumstance ranging from telephone
insults to fights between roommates. Sometimes, the
campus police definition of “Harassment” may be
incorrectly applied, as in the following instance which,
perhaps, should have been listed as an assault.

Harassment Woman states that while she was sitting in
the lounge, a male, 150 lbs., wearing blue slacks, dark
blue shirt, approached her and began talking to her.

What do all these tables and “events” mean for the
reader’ We have reviewed this material in an attempt to
locate instances where the presence of an armed campus
police officer might have been important in either crime
prevention and/or apprehension of a suspected and
dangerous person. Based on the data, we have been
unable to provide evidence for arming the campus
police. All we’ve discovered is that on the LIB campus,
as in the United States in general, larceny-thefts and

property

crimes

constituted

the

greatest

law-enforcement problem and none of these instances
can be prevented or solved with weapons.
For example, according to the FBI Uniform Crime
Reports, the national burglary rate has increased from
457.9 per 100,000 inhabitants in 1960 to 1,525.9 per
100,000 in 1975. This has been a steady increase.

Likewise, larceny-thefts have skyrocketed. From 1972
to 1976, the rate of reported larceny-thefts per 100,000
inhabitants increased 47 percent (Federal Bureau of
Investigation. “Uniform Crime Reports,” Crime in the
United States, 1976, Washington, DC.: September,
1977, p. 27). Larceny-thefts have also been constantly
on the rise since 1960 as well.
Hardware doesn’t help. Since 1968, American
taxpayers have funded a virtual militarization of the

police apparatus via the Law Enforcement Assistance
Administration (LEAA), which was created by the
Omnibus Crime Control Bill passed in that year. In
Fiscal Year 1969, the LEA A budget was $63 million. It
grew to $3 billion in Fiscal Year 1972. Much of this
expenditure was made on hardware and police training

above, property crimes
continue to mount countrywide. None of this crime is
preventable or controllable with arms!
Certaily, there is no educational benefit to be
derived from arming the Campus Police. For example,
the two most commonly used police sidearms. Smith

Arming the 50 signators of last Friday’s Guest
Opinion could equally pay for a number of graduate
assistantships or tuition waivers or undergraduate
scholarships, etc. 50 .357 Magnum pistols would cost
$9,425.50 and .38 pistols would cost $5950.
Increasing police hardware just ties the police closer
to the military-industrial complex and lines the pockets
of big business more. Guns and more guns, gas, dum
dum bullets and “law and order” are not the solution

products of poverty, unemployment, broken homes,

and let the politicians get away with law and order
rhetoric that reinforces the mistaken notion that police

can

perpetuating a system by which the rich get richers, the
poor get poorer, and crime continues (Di Grazia,

Today, more and more people are starting to realize that they are
what they eat. Today’s recipe is a take-off on Spanakopita, a flaky
spinach pie originating in Greece, where the people enjoy excellent
health and long lives.
Cottage cheese is a complete protein (containing alt the essential
amino acids) and therefore is a perfect food for vegetarians. One
serving of this cheese and spinach dish provides about 40 percent of an
adult’s daily protein allowance and is also high in calcium, iron,

Education...

—continued from

page.2—

If i return to GeneraT Education is going to be made, a more
cohesive body of faculty must be formed so that undergraduate study,
across disciplines can resume. This may take the form of team teaching
for example, with professors in various fields instructing a course
surveying the natural sciences perhaps. General Education will mean a
re-emphasis on the art of teaching. There must be found faculty
members Who are genuinely interested in seeing the generally educated
student emerge from this University.
The Chairman of the Faculty Senate, Jonathan Reichert, said that
“General Education means a breaking down of the walls between
departments to establish a program that is more than a collection of
nice courses.”
If not an assemblage of “nice” courses, then what will General
Education mean? Not an easily answered question. Schwartz’ report is
more definite on what it will not mean. It will not mean a return to
more distribution requirements, since this is seen as regressive and as a
superficial excuse for more meaningful change. It will not be the same
program for all students since the principles of diversity and
exploration of thought hardly coincide with uniformity in academic
pursuits. It will not be fixed, or permanent in its content but
continually redefined to fit changing needs. General Education is at
this stage
more a way of thinking about education than a specific
formula for a degree.
The generally educated person is seen as being able to critique
society and imagine why others critique it differently. He should be a
challenger to accepted or recognized points of view and an interrogater
of those who hold them.
■
&gt; ■■;
■
In context
He must have in his grasp, the common body of knowledge from
which all disciplines spring, so that the family of thought is not as
disjointed and striated as our technology makes it appear. In this sense,
some mastery of history and philosophy is seen as vital yw, but useless
without the ability to place our present society in an historical and
philosophical context.
He must be introduced to a wide range of disciplines, but not
in
the University’s current fashion of presenting the discipline’s
framework in hopes that the student will move up the structure.
It follows then, that it is more important that a sutdent who
desires an introduction to psychology, for example, know
in
practical terms
what a psychologist does, what kinds of questions he
asks, the institutions he functions within and the uncertainities of his
profession rather than the basic tools, such as the definition
of terms,
areas of the brain and so on that are required to proceed in the field of
psychology.
The introduction to many disciplines shows the generally educated
person how all fields of thought are interdependent, which is more
important than taking the first step in mastering all
those fields.
How the program in General Education will produce this person is
still to be decided. At this point, the University should, prepare itself
for the forging of the generally SdflciHed studeftt wWf l-took af
the
mis-castings of the past.

Frank Anzalone’s record-tying five goal
performance paced the playoff bound hockey Bulls
to an easy 12-1 victory over Union College Tuesday
evening at the Tonawanda Sports Center. Tom Wilde
chimed in with four scores while Tim Igo, Jim
Galanti, and Brian Grow each tallied singles for UB.
The win, coupled with a loss by Williams
College, enabled Buffalo to make the Eastern
Cbllegiate Athletic Conference (ECAC) Division II
playoffs for the fourth time under coach Ed Wright.
“It feels great to be in,” said the happy coach. The
Bulls were West Division runner-up to the University
of Massachusetts in 1972. UBalso made the playoffs
in 1975 and 1976 but lost in the first round.
Goals came early and quickly against Union as
Anzalone and Wilde combined to score three times
in the game’s first minute of play. Anzalone', the
senior center, scored at the 0:30 mark as he drilled
the rebound of Chris Bonn’s shot past Union
net minder Andy Askinas. Nineteen , seconds later
Wide tallied- The sophomore winger then'added
another goal at 1:02 and UB had an early 3-0 lead.
Five minutes later, freshman Igo picked up a
loose puck in front of the Union net and quickly
shot it past Askinas. The Bulls continually swarmed
over the Dutchmen’s zone as they poured 26 shots
o® net during the period and took 82 over the game.
Anzalone recorded his second goal of the night
at 17:45 on the power play and UB led 5-0 after the
contest’s initial twenty minutes of play. “The kids
were hungry,” commented Wright. “We were
determined and played solid hockey tonight.”
Scoring for the Bulls in the middle period were
Anzalone and Grow. Anzalone scored on a quick

Wilde, whose hard slapshot forced Curtin out of
the contest with a deep cut above the eye that
required 15 stitches to close, scored the game’s last
goal with 2:55 remaining. Buffalo had a 4-on-3 man
advantage and controlled the puck in the Union end.
Defenseman Carl Koeppel, who had four assists in
the game, passed to Wilde heading towards the net
and the leftwinger put away his sixteenth goal of the
season.
“The puck bounced the right way today,” said
Wilde. “My teammates set me up on a couple of the
goals; all I had to do was put the puck in.”
Buffalo thus ended the regular season with a
14-12 record overall, 12-10 in ECAC Division II. The
Bulls have now won five in a row. “1 figured we
would at least be .500, but our record is not really
indicative of the way we can play,” said Wright.
The Bulls will play at Middlebury, Vermont
against Middlebury College (the number one seeded
team in the playoffs) on Saturday night in the
opening round of the playoffs and the team expects
to do well.
“We can knock off whoever we play, especially
if we play to the top of our game,” explained Wilde.
“They Icnow that if we put together our game we’ll
be tough to handle.”
Bonn, who had four assists against Union,
agreed. “We would do well in the playoffs. We just
have to get together for one game at a time,” he said.
“This give game win streak gives us momentum
coming into these playoffs and that should help but
we have to play well.”
Anzalone, who ended the regular season as
Buffalo’s leading scorer with 24 goals, also thinks
that the Bulls can win id the playoffs. “We have to
get good goaltending, play better defense, and
hit,”
he said.

Nobody can say that swimmer George Finelli isn't dedicated. In an
effort to achieve the best time possible at the State Championships this
weekend, Finelli shaved his entire body. His dedication paid off the
few seconds he shaved off his time allowed him to win the State title in
two events (the 100 and the 200-yard butterfly). With his performance,
George also sat another mark: he is The Spectrum's first bald Athlete

Going out together
In the last six minutes of the
first period, the Spartans doubled
their point total. Their turnovers
were not nearly as frequent and
they even managed to collect an
offensive rebound now and then.
As the buzzer sounded, though,
they found themselves gazang at a
42-point Buffalo lead, with the
score 54-12.

Congress to vote on
aid to middle income
Congress will vote next week on a plan to expand federal aid to
college students from middle income families.
The proposal, which is strongly supported by President Carter, is
expected to cost 51.2 billion and calls for an expansion of eligibility
requirements for government scholarships.
Students from families with incomes of less than $25,000.will be
entitled to scholarships and students from families with incomes less
than $40,000 will be eligible for subsidized loans. Additional funds for
work-study programs for federally sponsored campus jobs amounting
to $150 million will be added to the $435 million new spent annually.
The bill was introduced by Representative William D. Ford (D.,
Michigan) who heads the Postsecondary Education Subcommittee of
the House Education and Labor Committee, Committee aid Christine
Standford said, “The proposal came about by the realization that more
and more middle income families are getting undermined by the costs
of higher education. The time has finally come that a bill will be
reviewed which offers increased federal aid to middle income families.”
There are approximately 20 major educational organizations
lobbying Congress to approve the bill. Organizations such as the

elementary and secondary schools. This plan would cost an estimated
$4 billion In tax revenues. The proposal disregards the income of the
student’s family and gives tax credits to any family which can afford to

&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;

Candidatesforum presents wide ranging views
establishment of a constitutional assembly

by Lori Braunstdn
Spectum Staff Writer

At an often unruly forum in the Porter Cafeteria on
Monday night, candidates for the upcoming Student
Asociation (SA) election voiced their opinions and urged
all students to vote this week. Presidential candidates were
alloted ten minutes and all other candidates five to state
their views, which was then followed by a question and
answer period.
Before the speakers began, Executive Vice Presidential
candidate Paul Friedman argued for open discussion,
rather than a question and answer period, while his
opponent Karl Schwartz called for an. orderly procedure.
The original procedure was upheld, with Presidential
candidates speaking first.
Robert Daniels of the JFK party was the firstto;,
deliver his position, stressing that the main issue was a
need for unity for working together. “Students should
look at one another as individuals, we’re all equal,” said
Daniels. He concluded by urging all students to come out
and vote.
Gary Maier of the Scarlet Begonia Party expressed the
need for committees to conduct student opinion polls to
put pressure on the Administration and organize a student
lobby for putting together rallies and letter writing
campaigns.
Bob Sinkewicz, Presidential candidate on the Epic
ticket, termed his experience in SA as his distinct
qualification, calling for more direct contact between SA
and the student body. He said that the Student
Association of the State University (SASU) plan of unity
should be adopted at this University in order to combat
student apathy. He also called for the abolishment of task
forces, which he labeled “ineffective,” and the

SA at amherst?
Sinkewicz demanded full student representation on
the Faculty Student Association (FSA) Board of Directors
and suggested that SA officials get course credit rather
than stipends. Sinkewicz said he already spoke to Acting
Dean of Undergraduate Education Walter Kunz about the
possibility of accrediting student government work.
Presidential candidate Richard Mott, of The Party,
prefaced his remarks by stating that Sinkewicz had, in the
past, called Mott’s proposal for course credit for SA
officials “something along the lines of shit What you said,
Bob, was a crock of shit,” exclaimed Mott.
Mott claimed the SA Executive Committee was
dictorial and said, “If The Party is elected, we will return
the powpr tp the rest of SA.” Urging a fight against
insensitive administration, he said. “We should present
ourselves to them as well-informed and intelligent. There’s
no reason to get down to their level.”
SA should never have moved to the Amherst Campus
and should move back to Squire Hall, where it would be
more accessible to students asserted Mott. “The Division
of Undergraduate Education (DUE) and the Equal
Opportunity Program (EOP),” he said, “won’t give up
their present space in 205 Squire, but 1 would like to see
261 D Squire used. If elected, I would insist upon each of
the major officers holding office hours at both campuses.”
Free tuition
Maier argued that the UGL move to Capen Hall would
bring students in contact with the present SA offices.
“However,” he said, “moving to Squire which has more
students walking through, would be good.”
Sinkewicz believes the move of SA would be a good

evening. From left to right are Bob Sinkewicz, Gary Maier,
Bob Daniels and Richard Mott. The election for all SA
positions and four referenda begins today and will run

idea. “But University Vice President of Facilities Planning
John Telfer has refused to give SA room at the Main Street
Campus,” he said.
The first of the candidates for Executive Vice
President to speak was Paul Freidman, who called for open
admissions, free tuition, a halt to construction of the
Amherst Campus and the abolisment of FSA.
“77ie Spectrum should not have a monopoly on SA
endorsements,” said Executive Vice Presidential candidate
Karl Schwartz. He advocated the right of all student
organizations to endorse canidates. One of his opponents,
Michael Niman, criticized the practices of FSA and
University Police.
“We should be dealing with tings that confront us on a
daily,basis,” said Turner Robinson of the Epic and JFK
parties. He asked for more school spirit and unity, stating
that his expediences make him qualified for the position of
Executive Vies ftwidrot.
Candidate for Director of Academic Affairs Dave
Seltehnan, the only one running for that position who
spoke on Monday, supported retention of the four course
load and a change of the “R” date te the tenth week of
the semester.
“We should use the captive audiences at movies and
other events to involve students and let them know what
SA is doing,” said candidate for Director of Student
Affairs "Scott Juisto. His opponent, Lori Pasternak, stated
her two years in SA and experience as an orientation aide
qualified her for the position. Pasternak would like to see
an amendment to the housing contract se that students
tripled in double rooms could break the contract
immediately without any financial penalty. “To solve a
problem of commuters,” she said, “1 would like to see
enforcement of the parking regulations, especially the
ticketing of VA Hospital people in Sherman lot.”

Stony Brook paper in trouble
by Beth Randell
Spectrum

Staff Writer

The Statesman, the student newspaper at SUNY
Brook which was recently rumored \t&gt; be
near financial collapse, has instead been forced to
reduce the number of its publications from three to
at Stony

The reason for the change, according to The
Statesman's Managing Editor Jack Milrod, was
$9,000 in outstanding phone bills. Phone bills
incurred by the Stony Brook paper are paid for by
the university administration, which in turn is
reimbursed by the paper. Unable to pay the recent
debt, which, according to Milrod “came up all of a
sudden after the university had left us alone for a
while,” The Statesman was forced to come up with a
solution by February 28, the due date of the bill.
“We are negotiating with the administration right
now, hoping to defer payment of half the bill until
next year,” said Milrod.
He claimed the money to pay the debt was to be
taken out of The Statesman’s account by the
j
Administration, a move which would have crippled
the paper. He hoped that a compromise could be
worked out so that the results would be less drastic.
The Statesman is a separate corporation,
partially funded by Stony Brook’s Student
Government (Polity) which gives it $50,500 in
Mandatory Student Fees. “The allocation has gone
down in recent years from $62,000 to $53,000, to
the present, amount,” said Milrod. “A realistic fee
would be $70,000-$75,000.”

Presently, The Statesman plans to publish 19
more issues on a Monday-Wednesday or possibly a
Monday-Thursday basis. The paper will continue to
print as long as funds allow. “The only condition
us is a total depletion of funds,”
which
said Milrod.
He explained that measures must be taken in
order to get along on the money which is available.
The salaries of typists, copy and production staff
and business

on those;*’
'

Tightening our belts
He said Polity decided to put to vote a
referendum concerning the possibility of an annual
voluntary fee paid by students to help fund the
paper. Milrod claimed a decision must be made by
the next billing period. “The motion doesn’t mean
anything unless they schedule the referendum in
time,” he said.
Rumors that the paper would fold for an
indefinite period caused Long Island’s Newsday to
cover the issue. That story prompted requests for
funds by businesses to whom The Statesman owed
money.
“We hope to keep publishing for as long as a
period as possible.” said Milrod. “We’re hoping to
get through the next ten weeks by tightening our
belts. The phone bill is the immediate problem, but
not,the ryot. At this point we are trying to make
sure this problem will not occur next year.”

Flu epidemic invades
Buffalo community
An outbreak of what appears to be a Victorian flu has hit the
University the past two weeks. Director of Health Services M. Luther
Musselman said that there has been a 150 percent increase over the
average number of 41 cases reported at this firne last year.
“I wouldn’t call it an epidemic,” Mussdman said, “But there is
defiriitely an increased occurrence of the flu over last year. It’s more
prevalent at the Amherst Campus and we’ve had a doctor there every
day since the outbreak occurred.” Health officials don’t expect an
epidemic because an outbreak of this particular strain several years ago
built up a natural resistance in many students.
According to Musselman, the flu bug began February 14, when
119 cases were reported. Health Service is presently employing all of its
emergency beds to handle the flu ridden students, who have numbered
between 90 and 100 for the past two weeks.
The virus is not limited to sluderrts, said Musselman. “Quite a few
instructors, some security members, some of our nurses, and a few
doctors have reported the symptoms.” He added that few classes have
been cancelled however.
Symptoms of the affliction include increased perspiring, aching
muscjas, coughing, fever and headache. Most cases last an average of
3-5 days. An outbreak of what appears to be the Rpssian Hu with
similar symptoms has occurred at Buffalo State College.’
According to Director of Health Services at Buffalo State Winefred
Mernan, a much milder strain which is clinically similar to Russian flu
has affected students there. “The typical pattern is a fever of 101-102
lor the tirst two days, followed by a few days of muscle aches and
fatigue. There are not as many chest symptoms with this strain,”
Mernan said.
The number of reported cases af Buffalo State is dropping,
according to Mernan. Respiratory cases totaled 144 last Tuesday and
tapered to 54 by Friday. “This milder type of flu doesn’t last as long,”
she sard.
Neither strain of tlu has reached the community to any large
degree. A 20-40 percent increase in absenteeism has been reported in
five industrial areas surveyed. Doctors attribute this to the fact that the
virus breeds easily in densely populated areas and in areas with poor
ventilation and dry air (i.e., dorm rooms).
Similar flu outbreaks have plagued SUNY at Binghamton and
Albany. Director of Health Services at SUNY Binghamton W.L.
Lipman said that the flu there reached a peak two weeks ago and has
now tapered off. “The problem was alarming for awhile. Some dorms
had a 50 percent rate of illness,” Lipman said.
Samples of both strains have been sent to Albany to be analyzed.
Researchers have not yet identified either strain but health officials
expect the results by the end or this week.

U.S. military on campus:
policy attitude
changes in
,

Editor's note: This is the introduction to a
series of articles detailing the involvement
of the armed forces with this University,
past and present:

by Eric Andruscavage
Spectrum Staff Writer
The U.S. military's presence at this
University has increased since the end of
the Vietnam war with several departments
here presently participating in 15 projects
for the U.S. Department of Defense
(DOD).
Over $850,000 is being fuaneled into
this University by the DOD for research
and for services provided by the computer
and nuclear science facilities.
From a student body once reknowned
for its political activism, there has been
little response to these projects or to the
general involvement of the University with
the military.
In 1969, after initiation of the
$300,000 DOD THEMIS project on this
campus, students demonstrated their
violent opposition to the armed forces. On
March 19, 1969, students marched on the
THEMIS site, tearing down fences and
construction shacks. They then went on to
occupy the portion of Hayes Hall outside
the office of President Martin Meyerson,
demanding that the project be removed
from the University.

Uniforms evident

Military advertising has glso been an
area of contention in the University
community. The Spectrum has refused to
accept recruiting advertisements for the
last few years, a policy recently changed by
the vote of the editorial board. These pages
may soon be filled with soaring jet fighters
and submarines Entering port.
The Reserve Officers’ Training Corps
(ROTC) is not presently active'on campus*
but IS students here are enrolled in the
ROTC program total enrollment of 110 at

Canlsius College. The junior class voted not
long ago to wear their uniforms every
Thursday, and now cross campuses,
experiencing none of the derogatory
comments that could have been expected
several years ago. The ROTC office on the
Canisius Campus has suffered only one
minor act of vandalism in recent years,
which was blamed on the neighborhood,
not political activism.
The offices of the University Air Force
ROTC (AFROTC) were ransacked to the
tune of $6,000 on October 15, 1969.
About 70 students destroyed a Xerox
machine, a duplicator, and most of the
records. Shortly afterward, the AFROTC
was discontinued at this University.
When the AFROTC originally came here
in 1951, the first two years of the program
were mandatory for alt male students who
could pass the physical examination. Some
opposition was expressed, but when 'the
program was made voluntary in 1965 the
change was attributed to the derives of the
Air Force and the lack of space in the
basement of Clark Gym, where the facility
was housed.

University itself received about $7,000
yearly, depending on the number of
veterans attending.

“During the Vietnam war,” said
Veterans Coordinator here, Clarence Dye,
“some veterans would not file for their
benefits, since they did not want to be
identified as veterans.” Dye claims this has
changed now and that students have no
negative feelings towards former soldiers
for anything they may have done while
they were in the service.
The University administration is neutral
in its admissions policies concerning
veterans, said Dye. However, several years
ago, some schools practiced discrimination,

Spectrum Stajf Writer

The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) and the
Student Association (SA) have joined forces in calling,for immediate
repair and repaving of the potholed section along Millersport Highway
known as Grover Cleveland Highway.
The two groups will make a presenation to the Amherst Town
Council NYPIRG has already collected 1000 signatures on a petition
Standing in the way of immediate action are home owners along
Grover Cleveland who fear state plans to also widen the road The
residents claim the widening will increase reckless driving along the
half-mile strptch that the State Highway department spokesman labeled
“the worst road we have
To add pressure to their argument, SA and
NYPIRG are seeking the support of students, faculty, the Blue Bird
Bus Company and the Amherst Town Police.
Two years ago, the Grover Cleveland Area Committee convinced
the Amherst Town Council to veto construction on the highway The
veto inspired NYPIRG’s State Board of Directors to initiate action
encouraging construction. About two weeks ago, SA offered NYPIRG
its cooperation. Except for voter registration drives, this will be the
first time SA and NYPIRG have worked together on an issue.
The petition, carrying SA and NYPIRG letter heads, reads in part:
"The highway in its present condition is a hazard to the public safety
and contributes to unnecessary costs for automobile repair.”
According to Lew Rose of NYPIRG, "This petition has been the
easiest drive we’ve ever had People are coming to us just to sign their

but he says the people of his area oppose widening more than they

‘Close to 70’
The residents attribute the accidents to speeding "The sign says
40, but I’ve seen people doing 50, 60 and pretty close to 70 going
down that road,” Gambino observed There are lots of children and old
people in the area who are often on the streets Property values are a
major concern of the adamant residents. As Gambino put it. "A major
highway in front of your house is no bargain.”
Finally, people in the area object to road-widening out of concern
for the trees growing on either side. The Highway Department has
promised to replace any trees that have to be cut down. However, the
residents see no comparison between a stately tree that his been
growing for at least 20 years and the anemic-looking Saplings that
would replace them.

Unconcerned
NYP1RG and SA are not concerned with the problems of Grover
Cleveland, “We don’t even mention abything about widening in our
petition,’’ said Ira Grushack of NYPIRG. According to Grushack, the
two student organizations see the residents as simply the deterrent to a
project that would be beneficial to more people than it would
inconvenience. They intend to make a presentation to the Town
Council in the third week of March. This presentation will include all
the petitions signed by students and teachers; a presentation by the
Blue Bird Bus Company concerning monetary loss due to bus damage
incurred on that road; a list of accidents that the AMherst Police
attribute to the mutilated treads; and possibly a letter from each
department head in favor of fixing the road. NYPIRG and SA want to
defer the Town Council’s veto power on all construction in the Town
of Amherst.
“Actually, I see their point,” said Grushack. “We’ve asked the
police for their cooperation in detering speeders . . We don’t believe,
though, that the loss of a few feet on either side of the street is too
much."
As of now, the opposing groups have expressed an interest in
meeting, but no communication has passed between the lines' in the
battle over Grover Cleveland Highway. Those interested should jontact

�Daemen College and
new

prof evaluations
by Bobbie Demme
City Editor

The flames of protest still crackle now and then.
A “sit-in” staged three weeks ago by Daemen College students
protesting the administration’s destruction of teacher evaluation forms
led to the formation this week of a joint committee to conduct this
semester’s evaluations. The decision came after a meeting between
Daemen College President Robert Marshall and the Student Association
Governing Board (SAGB).
The joint committee, to be comprised of Academic Dean Patricia
Curtiss, five members of the SAGB, and an as yet undecided number of
teachers, will take over the mechanics of administrating the Spring
evaluations of the college’s teachers. The evaluation forms are
completed by the students and are used for a variety of purposes
including the granting of tenure and as a basis for merit pay.
The conflict was touched off-by the administration’s refusal to
tabulate the results of last Fall’s evaluations due to what Vice President
for External Affairs Marshall Raucci called “incomplete data.”
Although the evaluation has been a tradition with the students, last
semester was the first time it fell under student government
supervision.

Ketter revising registration
by David Levy
Campus Editor

Claiming he is “disgusted” with
registration problems, University
President Robert Ketter has given
broad new-mdministrative powers
to
Admissions and Records
(A&amp;R) Director Richard Dremuk.
At a Faculty Senate meeting last
week, Ketter lamented that a test
case he set up, took the individual
four visits to A&amp;R and seven
hours to finally get registered
Dremuk’s new administrative
powers were recommended last
Fall in a Registration Report
prepared by Associate Vice
President for Academic Affairs
Claude Welch. In terming the
process of student registration one
of the most vital of all
administrative processes at this
University, the Report made ten
recommendations
to
Ketter
designed to facilitate and upgrade
the procedure.
The Task Force report, issued
on October 27, 1977, is based on

The primary recommendation
of the Task Force was the
assignment of all “administrative
responsibility” of the registration
process to a single administrator,
in this case A&amp;R Director
Dremuk. According to Dremuk,
that recommendation was based
on
a
recognized need for
“coordination” in the registration
process.
Dremuk
attributed
the
majority of registration problems
to the “minimal communication”
between all departments. Since
almost every administrative unit
of this University

be consulted before action could
be taken to repair the computer.

be responsible for any action

�EDITORIAL

Endorsement correction
Monday’s endorsements contained a serious
spelling error. James Stern, candidate for Student
Association of the State University (SASU) delegate

No guns
Undergraduates should overwhelmingly vote against
arming University Police in the first referendum question
today. Strangely enough, the vote is currently as innocuous
as the issue is potentially serious. The subject of arming
University Police should never have been brought to a vote
because, as far as we know, nobody in the Ketter
Administration with the power to affect a decision on the
matter has even suggested that it be a current subject of
debate.

But, however inappropriately the issue has been raised, it
must 'be squelched, quickly. In as much as students
everywhere are demanding more input into University-wide
policies, a vote to arm by students could be taken seriously
by Ketter Administration officials, who will undoubtedly be
keeping a close eye on the results. Vote NO, don't take a
chance.

Party hearty
Whether a Spring Weekend sponsored by SA, similar to
those apparently successful ones that have become firm
institutions at Brockport and Cortland State and Albany,
would be instrumental in bringing students together and
"getting them involved” at this University is highly doubtful.
However, there can be no doubt that, given the proper
organizing, a suitable location, a bright sunny day and
hordes of smiling, stoned, tipsy faces, the event could be a
great momentary success.
We envision a row of kegs singing "taste me, taste me"
lined up at the fountain area in back of Squire Hall (and
definitely not at Talbert Hall) and students, faculty and even
some administration characters making the wild and crazy
scene.
Vote yes for an SA Spring Weekend. A fine time is

guaranteed for all.

although the costs of many services and events it pays for
have. Those students who presently can afford to pay the
$67 can certainly afford a three dollar increase. Those who
cannot will have no more or less trouble getting fee waivers.
How wisely the fee will be spent depends not as much on
how much money is available as on who is in charge of
spending it. Therefore, while raising the fee will theoretically
automatically mandate an increase in services and club
events, a wise selection of candidates must accompany the
decision to raise the fee. It will be worth it.

Four course yes
The rather involved referendum on the four course load
and Faculty Senate ought to be approved for no other
reason than to inspire guilt in the parties who ought to be
feeling it. More valuable to the students than voting YES on
a topic that really has no NO side is a wide ranging
understanding of the entire four course load issue and its
implications. But, vote YESregardless. It can't hurt.

rising

Not only is this the week to decide who will
represent us in the Student Association, but it is also
a time to decide ftn some very important matters.
Included in the referendum which will
accompany the SA elections is, once again, the issue
of the mandatory student fee. There has been a
proposal to raise the fee a mere S3, from the present
$67 to the $70 limit. It is my firm conviction that
this should have been done a long time ago, in fact,
it never should have been lowered to $67 in the first
place. I realize that there is substantial opposition to
any increase of thfc fee, but I regard that opposition
as apathetic, hypocritical and uninformed. It is truly
exasperating to see certain people passively relent to

Association, those very people rise up and say “no
way.” They claim that they aren’t getting their
money’s worth, but if they just took the time to go
over to the SA office and ask a few questions, they
would find that we benefit immensely and in various

ways from our Student Association. Students who
financially cannot afford the increase wouldn’t be
affected by it since they would be eligible for a fee
waiver anyway.
Let’s all vote and vote responsibly in this
election. Support SA!

Up the fee
Pay

Student Fees'. “You Get What You

For.”

Background: The present mandatory fee came
into being in 1968, when the State University Board
of Trustees passed a resolution authorizing its
collection.
The ceiling they set for these fees was (and still
is) $70 per student per year.
Between 1968 and 1971, the fee fluctuated
between $68 and $69 annually.
The current fee, $70 for freshmen (includes $3
for orientation activities) and $6 7 jor all other
students, was implemented at SUNY Buffalo in
1971.
The fee has remained the same since 1971, but
not much else has. So what? Since 1971 inflation has
affected the cost of everything, including the dope
we smoke, the beer we drink, the gas we drive with,
and the books we read. Equally affected are the

consequent reductions in the overall funding base.
At the same time, the number of clubs funded by
this base has doubled, from 50 in the early 70s to
100 today, spreading those funding dollars even
thinner.
We are constantly complaining about the quality
of'life here, including academic, social, cultural and
recreational opportunities.
When was the last time you compared Ripple
wine with Beaugolais? Genesee beer with Coors?
Let’s face it, you get what you pay for.
The time has come for us to get What we pay for
at this University. Students can receive more from
student groups only if those groups have the funds
to provide quality services and programs. Vote yes
on Wednesday, Thursday or Friday to increase the
Student Fee to $70.

Like everyone else in this “Berkeley of the

Now they’re asking for $3 more which comes out to
six cents a week, or less than a penny a day. I don’t
think my budget will break under that kind of strain
but altogether it comes out ot $30,000-$40,000 for
the various activities on campus. A lot of good things

Spring celebration a University like this should have.
It could be greater next year if the fee is increased.
The most controversial issue is if University
Police should be armed in any way. Again, I urge
you to remember there is no magic field surrounding
this University that turns everyone into angels when
they step on the campus grounds. This is one of the
most open and accessible campuses around and
sticking your heads in the ground does not make the
danger go away. Albany State has armed security
and they do not go around shooting
students. The
decision you have to make is if you were the victim
of a crime or could be a victim of a violent crime,
would you want University Police, who are qualified,
well acquainted with the campus
and its atmosphere,
and accountable to the University
to handle it or
outside police forces who are not familiar at all with
this campus and its grounds, and not accountable to
anyone to handle it. Thank about it.
Finally, we must tell the Faculty Senate and the
Administration that the goals of the Curricular
Structure Report are unrealistic. We must maintain
the general education program
we have now until the
University is physically able to handle the proposed
change in curricular Structure. So please vote yes on
the last referendum question. Most importantly

The quality of student life at this University
can be characterized in a definite sense. I would

1. How would you describe the quality of
student life at this University and what specific
steps would you take to improve it?
I feel that the overall quality of life at this
University is poor. Severe problems exist in the
areas of academic quality and student sense of
community. Academics are the biggest function
of a university, and the policies governing this are
not subject to much student input. There are
many reasons for this but lack of pertinent

1. How would you describe the quality of
student life at this University and what specific
steps would you take to improve it?
Within the setting of this University the
quality of student life" is a function of two
variables, the social/cultural component and the
academic/intellectual component
The Math Science Review Committee's recent
report stated
that "In Buffalo, the normal

1. How would you describe the quality of
student life at this University and what specific
steps would you take to improve it?
A major problem with helping improve the
quality of student life is not knowing what

rate it fair, but it needs improvement in terms of
student participation. The quality is both poor
and boring. The specific steps I would take to
improve student life would be to urge students to
participate in every possible way newsletters,
announcements through different departments
and also through The Spectrum. I would inform
them of how the Seante is formed and explain
why student life is so bad. Having no input from
the students, the quality of student life here will
remain stagnant even though it is I who will be in
office, it is you the students who will determine
our direction. Hopefully, we can get together and
turn this place into what we want it to be, a
University which we are proud to be a part of.
2. What were the major successes and failures of
last year’s Student Association and how would
you evaluate the role played by Dennis Delia?
The major successes of last year's Student
Association were
1. The administration was able to obtain the
majority vote of the Board of Directors of Sub
Board.
2. Dennis Delia's administration decision to
stand up for the right of every student to have
legal representation took a lot of strength with
the Administration so strongly against it.
3. Meeting with the Alumni Association and
actually working with them in the interest of the
students and bringing football back showing the

information is one

I propose to
form a committee of students to act as an
information lobby, to conduct polls and
investigations about issues and to publicize the
results to SA and the academic community
I also feel that ideas like government for
course credit should be considered as ideas to
promote responsiveness to student ideas To help
bolster the sense of student community here, I
feel ideas such as a campus TV station, hooked
up to Cable-vision, and broadcast to both
campuses and the surrounding community, or
large scale events such as a Grateful Dead concert
on campus would help. These are just ideas, and
maybe not the right ones but I have an attitude
of looking at the possibilities objectively and
trying out new ideas

3. What specific steps should be taken to
strengthen students’ role in decision making at
this University, particularly -in academics and
services provided by the University?
The steps I would take to strengthen the
students' role in decision making at this
University, particularly in academics and services
provided by the University, would be to notify
the administration that they are not dealing with
high school students. We as University students
carry just as many responsibilities as they do in
our respective fields. We have to let them know
that we are 25,000 voices strong and we are not
to be ignored. Another step that could be taken
would be to provide batter means of
communication of matters of concern by way of
The Spectrum, or a University newsletter linking
the University students with the academic
administration and through the services that now
lack student participation. We must make our
voices heard.

would have more effectiveness.

3. What specific slap* should be taken to
strengthen students' role in decision making at
this University, particularly in acadamics and
services provided by the University?
First of all, the student government has to
make sure that students, who are elected and
appointed on University committees, not only
attend but are vocal, expressing the students
point of view. If they do not, then they should
be replaced.
Secondly, I would like to push for a
University Council, which would be comprised of
a certain fixed percentage of students, faculty
members and administrators, like at SUNY
Binghamton. The Council, with the three
constituents makes joint decisions effecting the
University as a whole.
Also SASU’s idea of unionization, or a
student union, is a very plausible possibility. If it
is organized and implemented correctly, could be
very effective in putting pressure on the
University to be more responsive to student
needs. The union system works well in England,
Puerto Rico and Canada
Publicizing issues through the press is another
way to bring pressure on the administration ar

There will be inevitable conflicts no matter

A basic solution to many conflicts is to elect

this a representative government? A one party

2. Specifically, how can the Executive Vice
President and the President work together to

As officials assigned the responsibility of
directing SA administration, the President and
Executive
Vice President must work in
coordination. One canno/ function without
assistance from the other and deal effectively
with the problems confronting students on this
campus. There are many ways in which the two
officials can accomplish a reasonably workable
relationship: i.e. 1. Have a clear understanding of
the constitutional mandates of each office, 2.
Maintain continuous communications in all
matters concerning
student government: 3.
Minimize unilateral decision-making, use only as
a last resort; 4. Stay in contact with student
problems and seek remedies in a unified manner:
5. Provide directors and coordinators with
resources necessary to develop good service
delivery to students: 6. Coordinate efforts with
Vice President for Sub Board I, Inc.: 7. Discuss
reports to :he Executive Committee and Student
Senate on a regular basis: 8. Develop a
comprehensive plan, around student concerns
together: 9. Seek supportive services and
resources wherever available.
These are a few suggestions which can make
the jobs of both individuals more meaningful, but
the essential element is developing a good
working knowledge of the offices. Each official
should attempt to be as well versed in his or her
area as possible and continuously work towards a
better student government.

We recognize that we are not going to be united

committed to a restructuring of the formal
procedure (rules of order) that is presently
followed at Executive Committee meetings. The
Executive Committee members ought to be able
to carry on an open exchange of ideas and

Unfortunately, they lost sight of the fact that
"working with" does not have to imply "being

to." which Student Association this
year became. When the administration makes it
clear that they are not at all concerned with what
we perceive as a real need, it is essential that our*
student leaders are not reluctant to put pressure
on the administration
So how is this accomplished?
An advocacy or fact-finding committee
should be established in Student Association. It
would consist of a group of students, earning
University credit, while working under the
guidance of a professional advisor h(?ed by
Student Association. The purpose of the
committee would be to research and investigate
any issue raised by an organization (such as a task
force) of Student Association. This would give
the student representatives a working knowledge
of the issues they would be dealing with, and
would place them on an equal footing with the
traditionally better informed administration. All
committee reports would be made public, and if
it was determined that the students' interests
were being dealt with unjustly, or were not being
responded to, pressure could be placed upon the

compliant

administration by the public disclosure of all the
relevant information to the issue. Our party is in
the process of preparing a proposal of this kind
to the Division of Undergraduate Education.
Just as the Student Senate must not be
turned into a "rubber stamping" body of the
Executive Committee, so Inust the Student
Association not be turned into a rubber stamping

What is Sub Board? Throughout my
campaigning efforts thus far this question has
been the most frequent. The very fact that
students at this University are unfamiliar with
their own corporation, a corporation which
utilizes over twenty dollars of our mandatory
fees, emphasizes what I see as a major problem
plaguing both SA and Sub Board. The issue of
whether or not this fee should be raised to
seventy dollars should not even be considered
until the students at U.B. are convinced that the
sixty-seven dollars they now pay are being spent
efficiently and in their best interests. As far as
undergraduate control on the Board of Directors
is concerned this appears to be readily within our
reach at present. Undergraduates make up five of
the ten members (twelve if MFC returns this year

and;institute

thO'ffdy
which is expected),
real block of students op the Board. There is no
evidence that the representatives from. _the
graduate schools vote in consistent cooperation.
While the monetary contributions from the
various graduate schools on the board is small in
proportion to SA’s, their experience, maturity
and advice can be an invaluable tool to Sub
Board's operations. To take away their voting
strength would probably serve to alienate these
other organizations and further divide the
multi-divisional structure of this University,
which at present is struggling to remain a
cohesive force. A united University community is
essential in order to maintain the educational
environment and strengthen our opposition to an
unresponsive administration. As a last resort, in
the event that we are unable to benefit from the
graduate students' participation we could then
use our financial power to politically control the
Board. At present I would work to improve Sub
Board by strengthening SA's involvement, and
striving to organize, encourage, gather and
respond to student need and desire, in terms of
vital Sub Board sponsored activities. Any
programs presently being funded should be
re-evaluated, as to their student participation and
value. These evaluations should be used to
support the amount presently being spent. It will
be one of my major priorities to see to it that
students are aware of how their money is being
spent and have direct access to these financial
considerations. Student government, before
anything else, must be understood by. end

need for a more visible, tangible and realistic tie
between both organizations. Through being in SA
this past year, I saw and realized the ups and
downs and also the potential of the Corporation,

business world of Sub Board and the student

done with my present position in SA.
represents about 90 percent of Sub
allocation from the various student
governments, should it receive commensurate
representation on the Board of Directors and
thus effectively control the corporation? What
would be the implications of such a policy?

2. Since SA

Board's

Although, according to the by-laws passed
this year by the Board of Directors of Sub Board,
an organization may not have, a vote unless they
appropriate
15 percent of their student
mandatory fee budget to Sub Board, the numbers
of representatives appointed to the Board of
Directors of Sub Board from an organization
represents

the

number

of

students

the

organization represents. So, to answer the
question, yes, I feel SA should have controlling
factors in. Sub Board decisions, but that is
because SA's allocation to Sub Board exceeds
that of the other organizations. It should also be
mentioned that we have the largest single
constituency on campus, so we would naturally
have the bulk pf student feelings to express. This
is not to say that the other student governments
such as MFC, GSA, Med, Law and Dent have no
voice. Their allocation to Sub Board should and
will represent what services they receive in
return. What this all boils down to is that Sub
Board could exist with just SA alone, but it is not
in existence for that sole reason. Student services
should be open and offered to all, that pay the
mandatory student fee of $67. One must
remember that the corporation is a two-fold
process: Accounting and services, and there is a
thin line
that separates them. The
SA
representatives next year must decide where the
line is drawn and make decisions that are
agreeable to the rest of the organizations
involved. If we take control of the reins, we still
must be responsive to the general populace needs.
The implications, if any, would be of a minute
nature if personalities and business do not mix,
unlike with this year's Board. What the final
outcome will be is. what monetarily the
organizations put in, they will get out. As V.P.
for Sub Board, I would advocate the fairness
between organizations involved while looking out
for the undergraduates' needs. The results? A
solid, cohesive atmosphere in the Corporation.

1. How would you describe the Vice President
for Sub Board role within SA and within Sub
Board?
The Vice President for Sub Board's
responsibilities within Student Association are by
definition two-fold. Consequently, any success I
rMght achieve once in office would have to be
evaluated in terms of both roles. The more
obvious eree of my involvement would be my
direct dealings with Sub Board, through the
Board of Directors. Secondly, I would participate
through an active role as Vice President on the
Executive Committee. Within Sub Board itself,
hopefully as chairman of the Board, I would
organize meetings and strive to influence the
Board so at to achieve optimal productivity.
Through my influence In SA I would encourage
the appointment of competent, intelligent, and
articulate undergraduate representation On the
Board. It would be crucial that I act as a Mason
between SA arid its policies, and the direction of
the activities under Sub Board. Sub Board
receives the majority of irt funds directly from
SA, therefore it is a must that input from SA be
communicated dearly and regularly to those on
the Board of Oirsetors. Working closely, with

82 percent of Sub Board's allocated
budget. feel, as many others do, that SA needs
to be more involved in Sub Board decisions, as in
essence, Sub Board is an outgrowth of the
Student Association. This is where the Vice
President for Sub Board enters the picture, as this
person is the official liason between SA and the
Corporation. The V.P. for Sub Board is a member
of the Executive Committee of SA and also a
member of, the Executive Committee of Sub
Board. As such, he should take an actiVe role not
only in the functioning of Sub Board, but also in
SA. Too often, the V.P. for Sub Board becomes
too caught up in the workings of the corporation
and fails to meet his responsibilities as a member
up nearly

lWs

responsible for keeping the information flowing
between these two immense organizations.
However this year the new Vice President for
Sub Board will probably be made chairman of
the Board of Directors and have even more
influence than ever before. I know that I am the
only qualified candidate running for this
position! None of the other candidates have the
vast amount of practical corporate knowledge
that I have gained from being a member of the
Board of Directors of I.R.C.B. (the two
corporations are very similar).
As a member of the Board of Directors, I have
inefficient
fought against corruption and
accounting procedures. It was from some of my
demands that there has finally been some positive
change in I.R.C.B.
As an SA Senator, member of Student Affairs
Task Force, and also a member of Speakers
Bureau, I have the SA knowledge that will also be
required of me.
As Vice President to Sub Board, one of my
priorities will be to see that student interests are
always maintained out at Parcel B
the Arnhem
Mall. There should not be any Cavages there; or
any other record store either.
I have based my campaign on ten essential
goals for the new Vice President for Sub Board:
1. Improve the Amherst Campus health
facilities. It is very important for there to be
more space for the doctors in addition to more

2. Move the Sexuality Clinic out to Amherst

commuters and for trips abroad.

2. Since SA represents about 90 percent of Sub
Board's allocation from the various student
governments, should it receive commensurate
representation on the Board of Directors and
thus affectively control the corporation? What
would be the implications of such a policy?
Presently SA controls Sub Board I because it
has a majority of votes on the Board of Directors.
SA does not need 90 percent representation on
the Board of Directors because under most
circumstances the SA view prevails. The only
time that our view does not prevail is when there
is a disagreement among the SA Board of
Directors. In those cases I feel it is good that
there is dissention because it reflects an
undergraduate division on a Sub Board issue. It is
also good that we always have graduate
representatives and representatives from the
professional school to add a more mature view.
If we decided to push for 90 percent control
of Sub Board then me mould be spiting ourselves.
Because in this case the graduate school, Lam
School and Med School mould withdraw from
Sub Board as MFC and the Dental School have
done previously. Then we mould lose at least
$30,000 in subsidy from these governments. SA
pays the most money and that is why we have a
majority on the Board. There is ijp reason though
to start a war between us and our sister
governments. The entire concept of Sub Board is
that all student governments will work together
as a group for the benefit for all.

Once this has been done, once the students no

be made for increasing the fee, then and only
then should SA proceed with efforts to do so.
The key is student confidence. Only when

acitivity fees. If it did, everytime there would be
an SA deficit the students would have another
increase. I feel that if the Student Association is
run correctly, the fee of $67 is quite sufficient.
In the past there have been many student
referendums in relation to the specific amount.
Should it be $67, or $70, or for that matter,
$100? The exact amount of fees that should be
paid is not the real problem. When these increases
in fees were defeated by the students, SA blamed
it on student apathy. They said that the students
didn't understand the problem (which SA
claimed was inflation). I feel the exact opposite
of SA. Students understood the problem better
than SA did. If SA would allocate its funding
correctly in accordance with the needs of the
student body, I feel that the mandatory fee of
$67 which we are now paying will be sufficient.
There exists, as

problems dealing with the job of
treasurer. In addition to making criticisms, I feel
I can suggest some solutions. At the beginning of

that scheduling monthly meetings will alleviate

Sean Egan
1. Considering the financial constraints of SA this
year, do you feel the mandatory fee should be
raised to $70 and why?
If present SA services are to continue, it is
essential that the activity fee be increased to the
legal limit of $70. The funds available for student
use have declined recently as a result of two
factors. Full time enrollment at U.B. has been
declining over the past few, years. This year's
enrollment figures were estimated at 13,000 full
time equivalents (FTEs), but are in reality closer
to 11,783. This overestimation has resulted in the
present treasurer announcing the possibility of a
14 percent revenue shortfall, thereby further
constraining SA fund organizations. Another
reason for the decrease in funds has been
inflation. Although the dollar amount paid by
each student has remained the same, that dollar
buys less each day. With inflation running at
about 7 percent per year, one dollar in 1968
(when the fee was initiated) is worth only about
$.51 now.
Despite SA's financial constraints, I believe
there are several areas where the students’ money
can be better spent. Students were forced to wait
almost a full semester for the Student Directory,
only to find that half of the phone numbers were
wrong. The book exchange wasn't held this past
semester, forcing students to spend as much as
$25 more for new books. The Course Description

much of the communication problems that have

exists is the fact that the students don't pay the

consequences and productivity of applying my

2, If it wera within your power, how would you

As treasurer of the Student Association I

allocations to Athletics and Sub-Board I are
basically constant. The other allocations would
be appropriated according to the activity and
production
of the different groups. The
organizations that would receive increases would
be the ones that have planned and executed their
functions adequately according to the needs and
wants of all the undergraduate students attending
the University. The dubs or organizations that
insure reductions would be those that had
ineffective planning in the previous year.

2. If it were within your power, how would you
reapportion funding, i.e. in what areas would you

increase and decrease funding?
The process currently being used by SA for
allocation of funds involves a hearing before the
financial committee. After alt organizations have
been heard, the financial committee makes a
budget proposal to the financial assembly. This
system is deficient in certain respects. There have
been no specific guidelines in deciding why an
organization should receive a certain amount of
money As treasurer, I will attempt to set up
specific guidelines, with the main objective of
making each organization more efficient and
responsible. Every organization must submit an
itemized account of where their past funding has
gone Also included will be specific events that
will be planned for the future year. This will
enable the organizations to budget their funds

Association by giving all allocated clubs and
organizations a larger budget to work with so
that the quality of their performances could
improve. The value of the dollar is constantly on
the negative decline and what $67 financed in
1968 is far from adequate in 1978. It is time that
me as students realize that me have to give a little
to get a lot.

2. If it were within your power, how would you
reapportion funding, i.e. in what areas would you
increase and decrease funding?
A complaint common among students at this
University is that they pay $67 in mandatory
student fees, and get little, repeat, little, in
return. I ask: Where is all this money (over
going?
Surely we should get
$880,000)
something more for this sizeable sum.
The Student Association must open up to the
students. One way of doing this is by letting
them know where their money is going. As
treasurer I would consider it my personal
responsibility to see that this is done. If SA can
place ads in The Spectrum for every event which
they sponsor, many of questionable interest at
best. I am confident that they could place an ad
detailing the uses to which the mandatory fee is
being put. Surely this would be an item of
interest to every fee-paying undergraduate. What
I am suggesting is an itemized statement, to
printed in The Spectrum listing each and every
organization funded by mandatory fees and how
much each receives. I do not accept the premise
that students at this University lack the
intelligence to seriously examine such a
statement
Only when the student body knows where its
money is going can it decide if those funds are
being equitably distributed. Opening up in this
manner will promote greater involvement in SA

Considering the financial constraints of SA this

raised to $70 and why?
The Student Association is now faced with a
crisis perhaps unequalled in its history. A sense of
apathy pervades the campus and SA's popularity
has sunk to a new all time low. Considering this
fact, an increase in Mandatory Student Fees
cannot be justified at this time. Until faith has
been restored in student government, students
cannot be expected to shoulder another burden
especially in light of the serious economic

difficulties which exist of the national and even
world level.
While it is true that SA was beset with
problems this year due to economic constraints,

an increase in the fee will not and in fact cannot
alleviate the difficulties. The simple fact of the
matter is that resources are limited while desires
are infinite. If the fee were increased to $100

I feel also that with the present facilities at
this school being what they are, the adoption of a
five course load would cause an increase in both
already crowded classrooms and in the amount of
time spent traveling on the buses Being that the
bus service is not as good as it should be, the
increased load caused by a student's having to
take an additional course would make travel

totally unbearable. Therefore, with the aid of my
fellow students, I plan to carry the fight for
retention of the four course load and to make the
administration responsive to our needs and
desires.

I am in favor of retaining the four course load
at the University of Buffalo, fo provide students
with the academic freedom they need. The four
course load allows students the opportunity to
take courses that they might otherwise stay away
from. There are many courses at this school
requiring a substantial amount of laboratory or
out of class time, possibly both. The four course
load allows the students the extra time needed to
complete thpir course work satisfactorily.
College should be an experience in which the

the time to participate in extra-curricular

deal with any issue* concerning the general
welfare of the student body (bussing, housing,
summer orientation, maintenance, etc.). In order
to act on such issues, the Director must have a
functioning task force and subcommittees, first
of all. (It is necessary to have students on the
task force and committees who are really

This past Spring semester, certain individuals
decided it would be too much of a hassle to have

that this would never happen again.

An example of this strategy can be found in

in Albany, has introduced the reality of the
revocation of that fee.

These problems can be anything from the
overcrowding in dorm rooms on the Amherst

A factor contributing to the lack of student

During this period of fiscal duress, SASU

and to SUtoY Central. In representing 27 member
schools,
totaling 350,000 students, SASU
provides effective lobbying. More effective than
if 27 different colleges and universities sent
representatives down to Albany, periodically.
SASU semes another purpose as well. It acts
as a cohesive force within the state. The most
effective means of achieving a desired goal is
through our united efforts. These efforts must
not only be present within this school, but within
this state. Our SA officials, and our SASU
delegates, must work to foster this sense of unity.
SASU tries to accomplish this on a state-wide
basis through the dissemination of information,
and through their lobbying efforts in Albany.
For these reasons, I believe it would be to our
advantage to remain members of SASU, and give
that organization our full support.

Of course, construction of the total,

preeminent concern of any student group
claiming to represent the twenty thousand
students here at U.B. To "let each become all he
is capable of being," our Governor Carey must
not be allowed to abandon his promise to
complete the facilities our University needs. This
must be SASU's top priority.
And pushing Amherst construction is in no
way at odds with the stated goals of SASU, nor

The most important issue that faces U.B.
today is getting the school built. This issue is of
primary importance to the students. SASU's
main concern should be to lobby for continued
construction. One of the major complaints of
Students is a lack of athletic facilities. Although
the money has been appropriated for a field
house, it has not been released by DOB. This lack
of gym space has created havoc in the scheduling
for Physical Education requirements. In the past
year, lack of space has forced the change of PE
requirements from senion to freshman, and now
they are thinking of changing it back. This
creates confusion in people’s scheduling of classes
and disconcerting graduation requirements. Also,
the lack of recreational facilities for both the
student population and the athletic teams is
incomprehensible in a university this site. This is
one of the many construction projects that must
be finished.
SASU was originally formed as a union of all
the students of the SUNV system. The goals of
the organization was to be an effective lobbying
group for students, figuring there was strength in
numbers. Students would be more effective
working collectively rather than individually.
Even though SASU's stated goal is unity, you
must push for your own school. We must
convince the rest of the schools in SASU to
support us in our effort in getting more money
from Amherst.
SASU is trying to do many good things.
Fighting against the health fee, raising TAP
awards, change of voter registration laws so you
can vote in the place you live, if you live awey at
school. These issues affect all the schools in the
state, and are important. But the issue of
construction is most important at U.B. We are
the biggest fee payer to SASU, we should make
sure we get our money's worth. This fs too
important an issue to Just let it sit there. We must
convince the other schools that it is in their own
best interest tor them to lobby for the release of
money from DOB. If not, we cannot continue to

organization that refuses to support us. A
pull-out from SASU should be our last resort,
but
if they refuse
to help us, we should get out. We could use the
money to hire our own lobbyist who would work
for the things we want.
The idea of SASU is a good one. It would be
terrible for it to fail. But we must be forceful in
our insistence to help us get construction funds.

Endorsement retraction

significantly “misrepresented himself” about
certain qualifications when applying for a

This discovery, made only Monday, and s

of him as a possible candidate for SA Treasurer.

and though he admitted his gross

Against Grover Cleveland widening
To the Editor
As a UB

Highway

employee and a Grover Cleveland
I would like to address the

University community and

Jeff Lessoff about the

Highway 263 pot hole relief problem.
State Highway 263 consists of Grover Cleveland
Highway (North Bailey to Hggert Road) and the
highway name switches to Millersport Highway from
hggert to

Transit Road.

The portion of Highway 263 from North Bailey
to Sheridan Drive has had no attention, save
patching, for over 25 years. This portion has
required resurfacing and re-underconstruction for 10
years. The residents of Grover Cleveland Highway
want and have requested that Highway 263 from
North Bailey to Sheridan Drive be resurfaced
including

new

underconstruction

(or

foundation)

and that sewers along the highway be enlarged to
accommodate rains and
melting snow, thus
eliminating the flooding problem (the Rosedale to
l.ggert block, in particular).
I have asked a good sampling of UB campus
Blue Bird Company bus drivers as well as Metro
Lockport bus drivers wjio travel Highway 263 if they
feel Grover Cleveland Highway should be widened.
They all have answered, “No, it’s plenty wide
enough. It should just be resurfaced so as to stop the
wear and tear on our buses and cars.”
The State of New York Department of
Transportation (DOT) wishes to widen Grover
Cleveland because they can obtain the majority of
the
construction funding from the federal

since

York State pays millions of tax dollars to the
f ederal Government and a considerable share of this
money is supposed to be returned to New York

road improvement is limited to road widening, new
highways or new rapid transit lines.
The State Highway Department has informed
Jeff Lessoff, Executive Vice President of the Student
Association, that they hopefo start widening Grover

because of our opposition to the widening Jim

and

To the best of my knowledge the rerouting of
Millersport around the Amherst Campus is to begin

urgent requests of Kemp, Javits and President Carter,
the Federal Government must be persuaded to
immediately release funds for the reconstruction and
resurfacing of Grover Cleveland at its present road
width. This should make the State DOT happy, and
the Town of Amherst as there will be no need for
replacement of Niagara Mohawk power lines/ street

What would attract an out of

Lips maintained it had much to

come here are looking for that
type
of influence in their
education.”
Life at Canisius College is quite
different than at this University.

students and 90 percent of them
are commuters. Any school with
such a large proportion of
commuters is bound to have a

Women’s Day is set
for March 8 here
Editor's note: This is the
Women 's Day.

first

in a three-part series on International

International Women’s Day, a commemoration of working
women’s struggles throughout modern history and an
acknowledgement of their accomplishments, will be celebrated with
events and movies on this campus March 8.
Among those committed to the women’s movement, the general
consensus is that the fight for better working conditions, equal pay,
and different needs for various women is still very much a necessity. A
brochure publicizing the upcoming holiday states, “We are urging all
women of all races, colors and ethnic backgrounds to unite in a
common bond of upgrading our roles in an oppressive society.”
Members of this University’s Women’s Studies College believe two
other important perspectives should be added to the commemorative
day. They believe “it’s a working woman’s holiday which indicates that
historically and universally women will soon be recognized as a
substantial part of the workforce.” Also agreed upon by them is the
fact that International Women’s Day is a celebration of the gains as
well as a recognition of “how far we still have to go.”
Liberation
The history of the day goes back to 1856, when on March 8
women garment workers marched from “sweatshops” in New York
City’s lower East Side protesting abominable working conditions and
demanding a pay raise, establishment of a ten-hour work day, and
equality for all women. They were beaten and dispersed by police in an
effort to quell the protest.
Four years later, in the same month, women formed their own
union, which on March 8, 1908 staged another demonstration in the
streets of New York. At this time, protestors called for an end to the
sweatshops and child labor, and the right to vote. Although the march
again ended in .violence, women workers had made their presence
known. In 1910 in Denmark, at an International Socialist Conference,
a resolution was passed which declared March 8 International Women’s
Day in honor of the New York City women workers. The proclamation
was achieved through the. efforts of Clara Zetkin who had long been

IRC amendment proposals
An

Constitutional Committee has proposed amendments
to the existing Constitution which would, in essence,
eliminate the Area Councils.
According to Main Body President and
Committee members Dan Kinley the major change
would be the creation of the positions of two

Body who will be responsible for planning localized
activities. He said, “Basically we’re trying to

However, the three Area Council Presidents
disagreed with the amendments, questioning whether
the changes were necessary. E'licott President David
Hartzband believes the proposals were a step in the

Another proposed amendment would change
the office of Vice President for the Inter Residence
Council Business (IRCB) from an elected to an
appointed position. Kinley believes this amendment
would help ensure that the person is qualified.
Kiligrew disagreed, saying, “Personally, I am
against it. There has been a growing rift between
IRCB and IRC that needs to blf'heaRif.'ldon’t think
this is the right solution
it will not hejd the rift.”
The proposed constitutional
amendments will

will be held Sunday at 3 p.m.

Number one wrestlers win
Buffalo, the number one ranked wrestling team
in Division III completed its impressive 21-12 win
over Clarion State at Clark Hall. After Friday’s easy
29-12 victory over Binghamton, the Bulls conclude
with a 13-3 season.
The UB squad was very pleased with its team ■
effort to ground the Bald Eagles. The team was
aroused by senior Frank Massero (142 pounds) when
he attained an escape point to win with one minute
left in the bout. Massero, although he has only been
working out with the~team for one month, has been
a great inspiration to the entire team, claimed
Buffalo coach Ed Michael.
Although the Clarion match was the last home
match for Buffalo’s seniors, there was little
despondence. Co-captain Kirk Anderson said he was
elated that he would not have to make weight in
Clajk Hall again. Co-captain Bruce Hadsell did not
feel the event as important because there are still
;

tournaments to be won. The only one who viewed
the final match as being sad was Anderson’s mother.

“But we’ve got more,” she added
In the match against Binghamton, freshman
Mike Jacoutot (118), Ed Tyrrell (134), and Paul
Grandits (167) qualified for the Division 111
Nationals, securing a nine member team to represent
UB at Wheaton, Illinois this weekend. The team’s
five seniors will make a final attempt at All-America
status, as they will compete against members from
more than 300 schools. The tournament will begin
early Friday with elimination bouts consisting of
three two-minute periods. The tournament will
require excessive strength and alertness from each
participant as it might be necessary to wrestle six to
eight matches in each of the two days.
With Buffalo seeded number one, there is the
hope that wrestlers can win it all. Also, many squad
members do not wish this weekend to be the end of
the season, as they hope to qualify for the NCAA
Division I Championships, which will be held at the
University of Maryland in two weeks.

Finelli takes state
swimming titles
Senior George Finelli became the first Buffalo swimmer ever to
win a New York State Championship, a$ he took first place in the
100-yard and 200-yard butterfly at Colgate Friday and Saturday.
Finelli’s time in the 100-yard race, 0:53.012, also set a state record. His
two wins earned him berths in the NCAA Division 111 National
Championships to be held March 16-18 at Grinnell, Iowa.
Finelli, who hails from Blauvelt, New York, shaved his entire body
(hair causes friction, which decreasea a swimmer’s speed), and those
fractions of seconds made the difference. Finelli won both races by less
than one-tenth of a second over his nearest competitor.
“If there was any possibility that we would win,” said Buffalo
coach Bill Sandord, “George would do it. He was really psyched for it.
That was his goal and he did it.”
Hairless wonder
Finelli was

seeded third after Friday's preliminaries in the
200-yard butterfly. The race was close all the way, and he just pulled it
out at the end. In doing so, he beat last year’s champion and the
state record holder.
After the prelims of the 100 fly on Saturday, Finelli was seeded
first. He got out to a fast start, but by the third (and final) turn, Jeff
Cook of St. Lawrence had pulled ahead Finelli swam hard in the final
lap to beat Cook at the touch.
According to both Sanford and Finelli, the team spirit was very
high “In both races, all you could hear were the Buffalo players
shouting,” Sanford said. Even Sanford, a veteran' of 29 years of
coaching swimming, got caught up in the emotion. “It was the biggest
thrill in my career as a coach,” he said.
previous

Flu hurts Bulls
As a team, Buffalo finished tenth out of the 18 teams that entered,
as no individual other than Finelli finished higher than tenth. Buffalo’s

800-yard freestyle relay team of Finelli, Frank Buczek, Tim Nash and
Jim Brenner set a school record with 7:42.6. Brenner, who was slowed
by the flu, finished 15th and 13th in the 200 and 400-yard individual
medley respectively.

Jim Turner finished sixteenth in both the 100 and 200-yard

freestyle. Diver Mike Dorah finished twelfth in the one meter and three
meter diving, and teammate Tony Frasca was thirteenth in the three
meter diving.

Doran (who qualified for the Nationals during the regular season)
and Finelli will both spend the next three weeks preparing for the
National Championships. Sanford has arranged a special diet, special
practices and even special sleeping schedules for the two so that they
will be as strong as possible for the championships.
Finelli feels his best event at the Nationals will be the 100-yard
butterfly. “I’ll have to swim in the 52’s to make the finals,” he said.

&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;

Limited funding granted
Limited funding from the SUNY at Buffalo supplemental budget
request for revitalization of the Ridge Lea campus was granted by
University Vice President Albert Somit and the Administration as an
alternative to the Parker move.
Following subsequent departmental discussions and an angry letter
from Levy to the Administration, Levy and some faculty members
requested approximately $100,000 from the supplemental budget for
Ridge Lea revitalization and an additional $30-50,000 for the planning
of a still possible Parker renovation.
According to University President Ketter, Albany’s bureaucratic
delays would mean an 18-month lag between the planning stage and
the start of renovation, making the move by the Fall of 1978

over five years, will also be jeopardized because of the Ketter
Administration’s decision not to rennovate Parker Hall and make it the
permanent home of the Department.
The GPA, an organization of Psychology grad students, is
organizing an intensive information gathering and letter writing
campaign opposing the Administration’s decision.
The organization is urging faculty members, graduate and
undergraduate students and community residents to write letters to
State Legislators and SUNY Chancellor Clifton Wharton expressing
their concern for the Department’s plight.

Candidatesforum: chaotic and sparsely attended
by Brad Bermudez
Campus editor

At a sparsely attended and chaotic Student
Association (SA) forum in Haas Lounge on Friday,
four candidates for SA President and one
unscheduled independent for Executive Vice
President aired their opinions of student government
and the University environment. Amid the din of a
non-attentive audience, independent candidate for

Vice Presiden, Paul Friedman, demanded a right to
“Four candidates will speak today,”
Fiiedman declared. “We-ow’t have four people
dictate the wishes of the 200 here.”
After Wing granted the right to present his
views, Friedman outlined thirteen proposals as a
platform. He called for an open admissions policy,
no tuition fees, a halt to all wasteful Amherst
construction, and a return of all undergraduate
classes to the Main Street Campus, a moratorium on
the repayment of student loans, preservation of the
present four course load, opposition to the arming of
University Police, and opposition to the K.u Klux
speak.

Klan.

Friedman said, “We must use SA as a unifying
organisation and work for mass demonstrations. A
strong statewide movement is needed to go to
Albany as often as necessary to force the state
Legislators into action.”
LOOKING FOR MR. GOOD PRESIDENT: The four candidates for
Student Association (SA) President, Bob Sinkewicz (top left), Gary
Maier (top right). Bob Daniels (bottom left) and Richard Mott (bottom
Tight) gathered in Haas Lounge Friday for an open debate. Although
students appeared ■ cool to the election, many issues were hotly
contested. See The Spectrum endorsements on the editorial pages of
this issue.

Coalition needed
The Party candidate for President, Richard
Mott, followed the boisterous Friedman presenting
his party’s platform in a hesitant tone. “SA
candidates in the past have brought up problems but
have rarely come up with proposals to solve them,”
he said.
Mott believes there is a power crisis among the
students. “What power wo do have isn’t used
effectively,” he said. “There is much student apathy
and little administrative continuity.” He added that
SA has in the past been ineffective in dealing with
the Amherst construction problem because of its
cencentration on individual Legislators, rather than
on the Legislature as a whole. Because it is election
year, we have the opportunity to have a broad,
effective campaign to obtain construction funding.
We must get a coalition of the media, local banks,
and students to put pressure on Carey,” Mott said.
The Epic Party candidate for President. Bob
Sinkewicz, opened with a dismal view of the
University. “This school sucks,” he observed. “The
Administration is close .minded and the Faculty
Senate doesn’t think students exist. We must unify
all students before we can take any action.”
Sinkewicz outlined issues that affect all
students. “Food Faculty-Student Association (FSA)
has a monopoly on food service with no student
input. We need student unionization, we need
another campus publication, we have a critical
library situation. 1 am willing to get student input

and make changes.”

—Jenson

Grateful dead
Gary Maier running bn the Scarlet Begonia
ticket, took a similar dim view of academic life here.
“The University is in a chaotic condition: the quality
has gone down and there is no unification of the

student body. The best way to get students together
is to get them to vote.”
Maier suggested the retention of the four course
load, was in favor of having an outdoor concert
featuring the Grateful Dead, and called for a campus
television station.
Robert Daniels of the JFK party stated, “Look
at what you can do for the University not what the
University can do for you.” Although JFK has no
reported platform at this time, Daniels presented the
focus of the party.
“We must let the Administration know we’re
not high school students any more. The students
must get together and work to get construction
funds for Amherst. We must try to get input from all
of the State Universities.”
Following the presentation of party platforms,
the floor was opened to discussion. A question was
raised
several
students
the
by
concerning
abolishment of the University Day Care Center in
1974. The Administration refused to fund the center
after Sub-Board could no longer pay its share of the
operating costs. A campaign was launched by day
care workers, resulting in a hasty agreement by the
Administration to provide funding not only for the
operation of the center but also for enlargement.
The Administration reneged
on its agreement
according to Michael Pierce, when it closed the
center in May of 1975.

In name only
“Will the next student government force the
Administration to keep its agreement to fund the
day care center,” Pierce asked any of the candidates.
Sinkewicz responded, “I don’t have the facts, but I’ll
do all that I can. 1 like to see that kind of desire.”
Another question was posed to Sinkewicz in
reference to his abstention on a vote recommending
the abolishment of the Gym requirement. “How can
we know where you stand on the issues?” asked one
irate student. Sinkewicz replied, “1 abstained
because I feel students shouldn’t be forced to take a
gym class but

at the same time we needed the
requirement for construction purposes. The students
must be informed about the issues and to do that
I’m willing to have forums and go to the students

door to door.”
One heated issue that emerged from the forum
was FSA profits. Friedman called for the transfer of
power from FSA to the workers and students.

“Workers

at

Food Service

are being explointed.

FSA

is non-profit in name only; there are people who
have been working for there for 17 years earning
only $3.00 an hour and their prices are ridiculous,”
said Friedman.

Mott argued that students already have a hand
in FSA decisions. “The FSA advisory committee is
made up of eleven
members, including four
undergraduates,
one graduate, and uni**-MFC
member. The students therefore have a majority in
-

FSA decisions.”
Friedman responded, “The students on that
committee can’t go to the meetings where the
decisions are made. They are a committee but they
don’t make the decisions.” He reiterated that
solution is not to abolish FSA, but to transfer its
power to the students and workers.

time. In order to obtain planning money, the Administration must
determine specific justifications for the use of space in Parker.
The Administration presently does not have a staff to study this
problem, according to Levy. “No one was very concerned with the
money at first,” he said. “They just told us to go ahead and determine
what we needed and worry about the money later.” He suggested that
a communication problem within the Administration probably caused
the Parker move to fall apart. “Those responsible for the renovation

Reconstructing Ridge Lea
With the move to Parker, the emphasis of the Administration’s
efforts is now to make life more bearable at Ridge Lea, according to
Levy. ,Somjt has been given the responsibility of coordinating the
infusion of resources into the Ridge Lea campus, which has been
evacuated by almost all of its former residents.
Levy composed a list outlining the necessary improvements for
revitalization of Ridge Lea which became the basis of subsequent
meetings with the Director of Libraries Saktidas Roy and the Vice
President of Facilities and Planning John Telfer.
Levy requestfed an enhancement of bus service between campuses,
the construction of a library, the establishment of adequate food
facilities, the construction of lounge and recreational areas, increased
classroom space, increased clinical and research space, assurance of
replacement faculty and graduate student lines, capital expenditure
budgets for the acquisition of research equipment, and the
maintenance of an adequate secretarial staff.
Levy expressed concern that the $100,000 may not cover all of
the proposals. “For instance,” Levy said, “for the amount of money
we’re asking for the, revitalization, we’re not sure there will be enough
for a library. There are no provisions in the budget for staff lines which
means the libraries may have to cut back on their services by
transferring some of their staff.”
The Office of Facilities Planning addressed a number of Levy’s
proposals and offered several solutions. Facilities Planning is calling for
the conversion of a former cafeteria with about 6000 square feet to a
library; the establishment of a recreational area and refreshment stand;
and the construction of a cafeteria and lounge in one of the buildings.
“This building would become in essence, a student union,” Levy said.

Other departments moving?
In response to other proposals. Facilities and Planning may request
the relocation of some of the other Ridge Lea units to provide more
classroom space and additional space for the animal research unit.
The granting of these proposals now hinges on the State
Legislature’s approval of the supplemental budget. Levy said that if the
budget is not approved, it may be possible to squeeze money out of the
University Operating Budget. No specific contingency plans have been
drawn up yet in case the budget is not approved.
In an information packet distributed to all Psychology faculty
members, the GPA presented rennovation and rental figures, facts
about the Clinical program, a list of letter campaign targets, a model
letter to Chancellor,Wharton, and a list of possible consequences of
continued residence at Ridge Lea. A student and faculty “wish list” is
also being circulated. GPA member Eric Gaplerud said, “We assembled
the necessary information before organizing the campaign because it’s
important to go put informed as well as angry.”
Parker cheaper
The GPA has organized a campaign on the basis that a move to
Parker would be more economically desirable than continued rental
and revitalization of Ridge Lea. Furthermore, GPA members
doubt
that the State will continue to pay for the rental of Ridge Lea.
According to figures gathered by the GPA, the rental cost of Ridge
Lea is $91,000, To retain the present facilities, it*would require that
$400,000 be spent over the next four years. Coupled with rental
expenses is the funding for bus service. The GPA determined that
$119,500 per year is spent on hus service, amounting to a foully ear
total of $480,000 and a consummate cost of $881),000 to refurbish
Ridge Lea. In comparison, the estimated cost of Parker renovation is

Imports predicted to drop and continue dropping

Unemployed steel worker Jerry Coopenmith speaks

Jobs stolen by automation, displacement and overtime

Forum presents steel industry from all sides
ten men calling

by Joel DiMarco
Staff Writer

Spectrum

—

Participants in a steel forum hel d last Friday came
to'the conclusion that this area’s steel industry problems
are merely part of a serious global problem. On one
particular point, Fred Lamesch of the American Institute
for Imported Steel reported that European steel mills have
become increasingly unprofitable, forcing layoffs. He
further stated that the Federal government’s new
‘/‘Solomon Plan” would result in a sharp drop in steel
imports on the Gulf coast, “an even sharper drop on the
East coast and a virtual embargo on the Great Lakes.”
Lamesch and another panelist. Charles Butler of the
Japanese Steel Information Center, denied that foreign
steel is being “dumped” on the U.S. Butler stated that
Japanese steel corporations, often accused of dumping, sell
their product at a cheaper price in this country because it
can be manufactured at $100 per ton cheaper than in the
U.S. Dumping is the practice of selling products below cost
for a period of time in an effort to steal business away
from competitors. It is illegal in this country and in most
others.
Butler pointed out that, last year, ten thousand
Japanese steel workers were laid-off indefinitely and for
years after World War II the U.S. had enjoyed a virtual
monopoly on steel production because most other steel
plants had been bombed. Since then, other countries have
built much more efficient plants while U.S. plants have not
been comparably improved.

Shouting match
predicted that steel imports would drop
month “due to the expiration of old
contracts” with foreign steel producers. He further
remarked that steel imports would continue to drop until
finally his “virtual embargo” prediction would come true.
At this point, Lamesch was interrupted by a group of
Lamesch

themselves the National United Workers

Organization and chanting “our lives
not their profits;
fight for every job.” The group claimed to represent
workers laid-off from Bethlehem Steel’s Lackawanna plant
and engaged in a brief shouting match with the forum’s
moderator, Assistant Professor Bahl Batt
of this
University’s School of Management. Finally, one of the
men, tentatively identified as Jerry Coopersmith, was
permitted to address the forum. “Workers are being used
by the steel companies to increase their profits . , . jobs are
being stolen by automation, job displacement and the
forcing of employed workers to work overtime instead of
employing more workers.” After this speech, the group
left Moot Courtroom chanting again.
Afterwards, Lamesch continued saying, “These
artificially high prices that the Solomon Plan will enforce
will have a much greater widespread inflationary affect
than the Carter Administration realizes. Developing
nations will be particularly hard hit.”

next

Free ride
Lamesch’s comments were refuted out of hand by
James Collins of the American Iron and Steel Institute
who called the plan “too lenient” on the Japanese and
claimed, “the Europeans are getting a free ride.”
The exact mechanism of the Solomon Plan was
explained by Michael Gadbaw of the U.S. Treasury.
Gadbaw is the attorney responsible for monitoring the
inflow of steel into the U.S. He cited statistics that showed
while consumption of steel increased to a record high last
year, “domestic production decreased by 4 million tons.
The result has been the closing of, or cutbacks at, 16
plants causing overt economic hardship in the states where
these plants are located.”
“The so-called Solomon Plan includes funds to aid in
plant modernization, in relocation of people living in steel
plant dependent areas and in trade adjustment assistance,”

Gadbaw. But the most important and
controversial part of the Solomon Plan is the trigger price
below American market prices. The price is then compared
with the cost of the steel’s production to ensure that no
steel is being dumped in this country.

‘Capital poor’
John Phelan, representing Sen. Jacob Javits, charged
that the American steel companies had not been spending
enough on ressarch and development and urged them to
do so as soon as possible.
Collins retorted that “the industry is capital poor,”
and argued the money is not available to modernize plants
to include such modem steel processes as the basic oxygen
process and the continuous casting. Such processes are
common in Japan but fairly rare here.
A speech by Rep. Henry Nowak was read by his
assistant, James Schmidt. In this speech, Nowak asked that
the loss of jobs be considered the most serious problem.
He also told of a bill now pending in Congress designed to
protect American manufacturers of TV sets, textiles, and
shoes, industries also hurt by foreign imports.
on

In a related matter, a keynote speaker at a conference
the future of Buffalo’s waterfront said, ‘The

comparative advantage that Buffalo once enjoyed in the
production of steel is now gone.” The speaker. Regional
Research Institute of West Virginia official William
Miernyk, was addressing a capacity audience at the Statler
Hilton Hotel the same Friday evening. He further
remarked, “Even a concentrated effort to reindustrialize
an area that has lost its industrial base cannot succeed if
the area is basically not economically sound.” Miernyk

believed that other forms of waterfront revitalization, such
as those tried successfully in cities like Baltimore and
Toronto, should be tried. Miernyk did stress the
importance of cooperation on the part of the community,
industry and government

�Symposium honors
Martin Luther King
by Bobbie Demme
Ofv Editor

I have a dream
For fifteen years, Martin Luther King’s dreams have endured. But
it was in memory of more than his dreams that people gathered in
Moot Courtroom in O'Bnan Hall on Thursday afternoon to pay tribute
to the man, the leader, and the cause.
Keynote speaker Leonard Spearman, Acting Deputy Commissioner
for Higher and Continuing Education in the U.S. Office of Education,
focused on King’s perpetuating and magnetic influence on the black
protest movement. Spearman detailed the history of the blacks’ fight
for civil rights and emphasized the ne,ed for continuing action in
securing the ideals Kind espoused. “The central problem of the 20th
and that is still true in 1978 is the color line.”

Search for identity
Spearman began by defining black protest. “Black protest is
involved in the man’s search for identity. Who am I?” he asked. “Who
are you?” The search for an answer started with a recitation of the
Black Annals of America. ''Ancestors of the black people in this
in chains,” said Spearman, He went

on to characterize the relationship established at the outset of
black-white interaction in this country.
“Take away your name, your religion, your language; destroy your
sense, of family. If 1 wanted to create a perfect slave state. I’d follow
the rules created by this state in the 15th Century.”
The courtroom audience warmed to Spearman, with his repertoire
of anecdotes embellishing the historical facts. The atmosphere, heavy
with reminiscences and remonstrances, was lightened by his humorous
recollections of difficult times. He told of the time he visited Antioch,
Alaska with the thermometer hovering around minus 38 degrees. “I
was first approached by one little Eskimo girl who looked at me
curiously. “She was soon joined by another Eskimo child, then
another, until I was finally encircled by them. ‘Who is he?’ they
wondered. ‘What’s he doing that far north?’ Finally, they summoned
an old Eskimo man who looked at me wisely and proclaimed: ‘Ahhhh
. . . he’s a Russian.”
As a chuckle wound its way through the spectators, Spearman
remarked, “I laugh because it reduces the trauma

Summing up his

of the great civil rights leader,
Spearman said, “King was dynamic, articulate, and trusted,” he said.
“His leadership was unquestioned by his followers
he made the
movement appealing to the masses.”
' An earlier speaker had uttered similar phrases about a man he not
ojfly paid tribute to that day, but had lingered with over philosophical
years earlier. Professor of Educational Administration and
Poflky Studies, Frank Brown, reminisced about his experiences with
King in Montgomery, Alabama, during the ’50’s and ’60’s. “He was a
first-rate professional in his field-preaching,” recalled Brown. “King
was qualified when he came on the scene. He was a scholar, an

“They knew they had their man,” proclaimed Brown. And it was
obvious that the students and faculty members who attended the
tribute felt the same.
Other participants in the tribute included Executive Vice President
Albert Somit and the University Gospel Choir directed by Carlos Butte.
The rest of the program entailed a series of readings, including poems
by Paul Dunbar and Lanston Hughes and a taped speech delivered by
King at the Lincoln Memorial in Washington, D C. on the occasion of
the Civil Rights March in 1963.

The symposium was organized and presented by the minority
faculty and staff association of this University.

�EDITORIAL
Why we endorse

Admittedly, we are annually
disappointed by the actions or
inactions of the candidates we
endorse. This year may prove to be
no different but students should at
least think hard about how they vote
so as not to usher in total ignorance
and mindless irresponisbility into the
SA office. After all, SA could lead
students out of their social and
political void and make their lives
more relevant and meaningful.

The most glaring characteristic of
this year's SA elections is that
virtually no candidate has any
practical working experience in
student government and that as a
whole, the candidates have less
working knowledge of student affairs
and the innards of Student politics
than the candidates of the last three
years.

The real question then becomes: is
this
inexperience
healthy
or
unhealthy?
Unknown candidates
with fresh ideas and what appear to
bo compelling personalities would fill
the hack-dominated SA offices with

what little respect students had for

encouraged this loss of faith in
student government and has further
clouded students' view of where the
reins of power lie.

Vice President

for Sub Board
The process of selecting capable
student government officials is
difficult in that so often only a very
fine line separates one candidate
from another. Choices are made by
personal impressions and are many
times based on the various and
sometimes insignificant nuances of
the hopefuls. Rarely has anyone
broken away from the rest of the
field and sparkled so brightly as has
Jane
Baum.
She
has clearly
demonstrated that she is the most
insightful, energetic and charismatic
candidate in the running for the
position of Vice President for Sub
Board.
Most
importantly,
she
possesses that crucial and often
elusive quality of leadership which
appears to be lacking in the other
candidates. Although she has had
experience
little
student
in
government, her natural abilities will
serve her well in learning the system.
The election of Baum wilt be a vital
step towards an effective, rational
Sub Board Board of Directors. She
will certainly offer a refreshing
change from the aimless, polemic
stance that has so characterized this
year's Vice President for Sub Board.
Although Baum is the clear
choice, both Allen Clifford and
Stephanie Freund seem reasonably
capable. Clifford, especially, has
shown remarkable enthusiasm in his
position as SASU delegate and
Jewish Student Union President. He
has been a tireless opponent of the
Mandatory Health Fee and has
supported SASU admirably. Clifford
should remain active in SA, but not
as Vice President for Sub Board.
Freund is a sincere candidate who
has a good understanding of Sub
Board's structure and is as qualified
as Clifford, but lacks the leadership
qualities so essential to the position.
Steven
Bason
exhibited no
knowledge or understanding of Sub
Board and appears totally Incapable
of handling the position.

Treasurer
‘The SA treasurer is closely

and is the financial Jink between the
student government and various
organizations and clubs. The person
filling the position must have a clear
comprehension of the intricacies of
SA's financial structure and must
demonstrate a coherent, pragmatic
approach to allocating funds. None
of the candidates for Treasurer
appear as well equipped to handle
the job as do Fred Wawrzonek and
Sean Egan. We give Wawrzonek the
slight edge. Though inexperienced in
SA, he displayed the most thorough
knowledge of the position and

credentials for the job of Treasurer.
She is an intelligent and rational
person but lacks a full understanding
of SA and of Mandatory Fee
guidelines to be our choice. Mitch
Nessenoff offered some original ideas
for SA, some of which could be very
productive, yet also lacked certain
knowledge essential to the position.
Mark Sartinksy, who said that
three weeks ago he knew as much
about Sub Board as does a sidewalk,
is very intelligent, yet his conception
of the student corporation is still
only up to curb level.

appear willing and reasonably able to
deal with this question, but Lori

Pasternak,
virtue
of her
experience in and dedication to SA
this year, is the best choice. She
preaches the value of the Student
Affairs Task Force and will be a
capable and enthusiastic Director.
Scott Juisto was certainly an
inventful and original candidate and
offered many useful ideas, but lacks
experience
the
that Pasternak
possesses. Neither Eric Puzo nor
Kathy Berger have as great an
understanding or as comprehensive a
plan of action as does Pasternak.

Director of
Student Activities

'

We believe that Barry Rubin is the
best candidate for the position of
Director of Student Activities.
Although none of the candidates
were overly impressive, Rubin's
experience in IRC and other campus
organizations is more valuable than
the negligible creative powers of the
other two candidates, Libby Post
and Carlos Benitez.
AH three candidates emphasized
the need to have more student
activites both on campus and for
commuters. Rubin said that various
clubs could make better use of their
money and that more activites would
help bridge the communication gap
between SA and the students. Post
suggested that with the right kind of
publicity, various activities would be
more successful. Benitez, who had

�Programs threatened

Handicapped inaccessibility

To the Editor.

To the Editor.

I would like to point out to the University
community that the lack of adequate gymnasium
facilities at UB is no longer a prime reason why

At the last meeting of the Independents (a
both handicapped and able bodied
students) an extremely important issue arose.
Inaccessibility is a severe ’problem throughout the
SUNY at Buffalo campus. We are talking about
inaccessibility for a student with a handicap.
Inaccessibility becomes a cutting, cruel reality when
one attempts to enter Squire Hall. The center of
student activities, both social and academic, takes
place within the walls of Squire Hall. Recently, the
Division of Undergraduate Education, has recently
moved into Squire Hall “fortress.” To enter Squire

construction on the Amherst campus should be
immediately “beefed up.”
Most of you probably know by now that the
graduate program in Clinical Psychology may lose its
accreditation due to the poor facilities or the
complete lack of facilities at the Ridge Lea Campus.
Be advised, too, that relocating the department in
'Barker Hall on the Main Street Campus is only a
temporary solution, and it is about time that the
State of New York acknowledges the fact that
further construction at Amherst is necessary for the
academic growth of this University.
The Clinical Psychology program may be the
first to lose its accreditation due to the stalled
construction at Amherst, but it is said that the UB
Medical School may be next in line to face this
dilemma. How many programs are going to have to
be threatened before positive action is taken to
provide adequate facilities for the courses offered at
SUNYAB?

A handicapped student should not have to enter
through the entrance where trash is collected. It
should be noted that even this entrance has steps
that a wheelchair-bound student cannot manage
alone.
To enter Squire Hall through a door meant for

discrimination.
The problem of inaccessibility of Squire Hall
must be rectified now. We await the action of Dr.

This letter is in support of a complaint aired by
Michael J. Hartl in the February 17, 1978 issue of
The Spectrum. When I obtained my parking sticker
back , in September in&lt; Harriman Library it was
possible for me to pick up a* .many parking stickers
as I wanted as no onewas sitting at the table.
Last summer I was assigned to a clinical rotation
at V.A. Hospital and noticed all the employees
parkihg in our (Sherman) lot. I called to complain to
tiJ«LIniversity Police, about these, people parting jij
our lot and about how easy it was to obtain these
stickers off the table in Harriman. They stated that
they were aware of the problem but did not say
what they were going to do about it.
This semester I am again assigned to V.A.
Hospital and I was told by V.A. Security Guards on
February 14 that I could not park in their lot, but'
that I had to go across the street and park in the
U.B. lot. When I parked there (at 7:15 a.m.) there
wefe already three rows of cars parked in the corner
of the lot closest to V.A. Employees were parking in
Sherman lot and crossing the street to the hospital.
My question is where are the University Police
to ticket these people when they arc parking in our
lot? I would suggest stationing a police Car in that lot
between 6:30 and 8:30 a.m. and asking these people
for student I.D.’s even if they have an (easily
obtainable) parking sticker.
I agree that 1 should park in my lot and V.A,
employees, in theirs, but there is no one enforcing
the rule ip Sherman lot. How about it Universityy

�Coalition fights for
city utility takeover
For almost two years the Peoples Power Coalition has been
working for city takeover of Niagara Mohawk and National Fuel
Gas. The group’s efforts, which have included public meetings,
petitioning, leafletting, letters and demonstrations, are beginning to
pay off. The Buffalo Common Council is now considering putting
up the money for a feasibility study to see if such a takeover is
advisable.
The Coalition believes that a city takeover would lower electric
bills by one-half and gas bills by one-third, and relieve the
intolerable burden which big utility bills place on people of limited
income, especially the elderly. The figures from municipally-owned
utilities around the country back them up. And, apparently, many
Buffalonians agree with the Coalition, because the group has
obtained almost 10,000 signatures on a petition calling for the
Council to fund a feasibility study.
The Coalition also believes that municipalization of the utilities
will give the people of the city and the people who work for
National Fuel Gas and Niagara Mohawk a chance to run the utilities
democratically. Decisions are now made by an inaccessible Board of
Directors, composed mainly or rich bankers and officers, mainly
lawyers and engineers, people who make so much money they have
no idea of the plight of the average citizen. In a municipal system, if
it is set up properly, decisions would be made by elected
representatives from the neighborhoods and utility workers. A
municipal system would not be answerable to rich stockholders, but
to the people themselves. Instead of paying high dividends to these
stockholders from profits guaranteed by New York State, which is
what happens with the private utilities, the municipal utility would
use this money to lower rates and give increased benefits to people
who work for the utility.
By lowering rates a municipal system would attract businesses
and industry which will provide much-needed Jobs and help to
revitalize the city’s neighborhoods.
The first step in obtaining this municipal system is for the
Common Council to appropriate money for the feasibility study.
The Council will be considering this step on Tuesday, February
28th at 2 p.m. in a hearing before the Legislative Committee, on the
13th floor of City Hall in the Council Chambers. Speakers for both
sides will state their views. The hearing is open to the public.
Niagara Mohawk and National Fuel Gas will be fighting this
proposal with all the money and influence they can muster. It is
important that people in favor of the study show their support to
the Common Council.
I. Call, write or visit your representative on the Council and
tell him or her that you are in favor of the feasibility study; that
you want public power.
2. Come to the hearing in the Council Chambers on Tuesday,
February 28th at 2 p.m.
3. Volunteer to work with the Peoples Power Coalition. Call

Itching to do your part for the environment? Well, a thorough
scratching is as close as Hayes Hall at the Environmental Clearing
House Organization (ECHO). A little-know source of environmental
services, it was the first of its kind when it was founded in October,
1970. Boasting files on 700 to 800 topics dealing with both the
physical and social environment, ECHO has preserved clippings from
local papers, the Congressional Record, and twenty newsletters that go
back about eight years. Said Executive Director, Marja Hart, “You’ll
never find anything like this except in a newspaper morgue. It’s unique
in this area. The next closest one is in Schenectady.”
The clearing house is used by a variety of people, including
teachers, students, legislators, councilmen, businessmen, government
officials, and citizens interested in the environment.
Volunteers are always welcome at the Clearing House. Anyone is
welcome to submit articles for the newsletter ECHO issues, as well as
doing filing
clipping.
Squirrels unite
In addition to the newspaper, ECHO is involved in several other
projects. Among these are: a 40-member speakers’ bureau that speaks
on a number of environmental topics; recycling information; resources
on social environmental topics, such as aged, women, drugs, housing,
veterans, and others; a listing of 50 environmental groups in the area;
publication of special “ALERTs” to inform people of important
hearings and public meetings; information on important environmental
legislation; answers to telephone inquiries; exhibits on ecology at the
Erie County Fair and local schools and shopping malls; aids to the
Green Fund, a non-profit organization wliich provides trees for sale to
citizens, planted by the City of Buffalo,
Unlike many environmental groups, ECHO does not take a stand
on issues, rather it researches and presents information on both sides of
an issue. “This policy has enabled ECHO to work in harmony with all,
while still remaining an advocate for environmental improvement,” said
a spokesperson.
ECHO was formed ia cooperation with the Junior League of
Buffalo. At the start, it was funded, but has since switched to
volunteers because of lack of money. Originally hdused in the’Buffalo
Museum of Science, it later moved to Bethune Hall. Now located in
Roorrull? of Hayes Hall, ECHO is open from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. daily
and the phone number is 834-2727.

Understanding and
learning from dreams
by Nancy Korman
Spectrum Staff Writer

To sleep: perchance to dream; ay there’s the rub; for in that sleep of

death what dreams may come, when we have shuffled off this mortal
-Shakespeare, “Hamlet”
coil, must give us pause.

A dream is a fictitious story in which a person is an active
participant or a passive observer. Dream content is the product of the
dreamer’s recent or remote past and is not a foreshadowing of events to
come. Desires, worries, and tensions may have a direct bearing on the
type of dream experienced. Some dreams may be pleasant; others, like
nightmares, may be frightening and bothersome to the individual.
Most dreams are related to events of the day before the dream and
the strong wishes of the dreamer. Minor incidents that occur hours
before sleep appear in dreams. Few events-more than two days old turn
up in dreams. Deep wishes or fears especially those held in childhood
often surface. Events in the sleeper’s surroundings, such as a loud
noise, may become part of a dream, but they are not causes of dreams.

I dreamt I went.
Sbtae dreams involve deep feelings that a person may not realize
he has. Psychiatrists frequently use material from a patient’s dreams to
help -Vhe person understand himself better. People do see in most
dreams, but they can also hear, smell, taste, and touch.
i Dreaming is signaled by rapid eye movement (REM), as opposed to
dreamless periods of non-rapid eye movement (NREM). Scientists have
also obtained simultaneous recordings of other changes in the organ
systems including irregularity in breathing and pulse rates suggesting
emotional disturbance. Scientiets can also tell whether a person is
asleep, awake, or most likely dreaming by measuring brain waves with

an electro-encephalograph (EEC).
Brain waves are larger and slower during most periods of sleep, but
during certain periods of REM, they become faster and smaller and eye
movements increase.
There are approximately three to five REM periods a night. Most
adults dream for about 100 minutes during eight hours of sleep, with
three to five dreams, each lasting from 10 to 30 minutes. Later dreams
last longer than do the earlier ones. There are differences between REM
and NREM sleep; however, both kinds are intrinsic components of

�Keeping up with chewing gum Delta Sigma Phi is
seeking members
by Leah B. Levine
Staff Writer

means of a centrifuge

Great

The local chapter of Delta Sigma Phi, a national and professional
fraternity for business students, is actively seeking new members.
Founded and supported by Millard Fillmore College (MFC) business
students, the local shapter is now interested in recruiting members
from the large number df non-nocturnal business students.
As a professional fraternity, it is distinct from the usual fraternity,
in that its main purpose is not entirely social. Delta Sigma Phi sees
itself as a supplement to a student’s business education. The fraternity
sponsors lectures and talks by local business leaders and faculty
members. Important job contacts are provided by involving members in
business and community activities. Unlike social fraternities. Delta
Sigma Phi is open to both men and women.
Social events held by the fraternity include a formal dinnerand a
spring dinner dance at the Buffalo Canoe Club. New members are
initiated in a formal ceremony prior to the spring dinner dance. Alumni
are invited to attend these social events.
New members are not subject to the ritual of hazing, unlike most
social fraternities. Members are required to learn the chapter’s history
and to help organize a public service project in which the entire chapter
membership participates. In the past, the local chapter of the fraternity
has also assisted in the “Career Day” sponsored by the Alumni
Association of the School of Management.
Delta Sigma Phi was founded as a national professional fraternity
for business students in 1907, but the local chapter was nof,established
until 1925 by a group of students in MFC. Meetings are h$Jd every two
to three weeks in Squire Hall. The meetings are held as infrequently as
possible to insure that attendance is not a burden to the rftembership.
The dues are $15.00 per semester.
M\
There are at present only 17 members in the fraternity, but
chapter officers hope to have more than 50 members by next year.
Interested persons should contact Chapter President, Jay Delaney, at
822-5563 or Warren Keipper at 875-8247.

Royals victors; heat
the ECC Kats 68 58
The hoopster Royals retained their superiority over Erie
Community College with a 68-58 win against the Kats, their second
such victory of the season at Clark Hall Thursday. Buffalo now owns a
11-7 record with one game remaining.
The Royals had an especially poor start
they were down 0-12
with two team fouls before finally obtaining their first goal. But when
the Royals got started, they couldn’t be stopped. UB outscored the
Kats 20-2 at one point to sprint to a 26-18 lead, never to trail again.
Every Royal contributed to the win. Kris Schum lead Buffalo with
20 points while sophomore Gaby Gray matched rebounds and points at
16. Senior Reginia Frazier also had a successful game with nine assists,
four steals, and 11 points.
-

No execution

With Erie’s center hurt and not playing, the Kats attempted to
utilize an outside game but did not execute successfully as they failed
to crash the boards for rebounds. Cousins’ main concern was to deny
Erie the inside game. “They would have needed to shoot 65 percent
from the outside,” she claimed. “You can only get so much from an

outside gagae,”
Erie ($ach Santo Desain thought his team played poorly as the
Kats shot 15 percent from the line and their defense provided many
opportunities for Buffalo to score. “The kids (from U.B.) did a great
job,” he said. “They made us make the mistakes.”
Cousins did not think Erie’s free throw percentage was a major
determinant of the game. “Erie’s weakness is against rttan-to-man. If
they were in the game mote, we would have pressed more,” she said.
According to. Cousins, the Royals have tne endurance to press for the

entire minutes.

‘

'*

Tomorrow the Royals will terminate their season against
DTouville. Cousins does not expect too much difficulty in anticipating
a win. The game will begin at 7 p.m. in Clark Hall.
With the eligibility problems of the Royals’ line up (four players
will not play this season), their less active players have attained
valuable playing experience. Since Frazier is the only senior on the
squad antf the other players have picked up more playing time than
usual. Cousins expects to field a strong team next year. “My players are
the best,” she said. “They have a lot of heart.”

Fencing team upset by Utica
by Robert Basil
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The University of Buffalo Fencing team was
stunned by Utica College last Saturday at Clark Hall,
losing for the first time this season, 10-8. Earlier in
the season, the Bulls nipped Utica by the same score.
Only the foil and the epee were used in the
match, because Utica does not have a sabre team.
The Bulls floundered immediately when Rich
Sherman, on a six bout winning streak, lost in the
first foil by the score of 5-4. Mike Luzzi lost the
next match, 5-3. Jon Solomon, who entered the
match undefeated, almost lost the third match,
coming back from a 3-1 deficit to win 5-4 in
overtime. Solomon, sluggish and suffering from the
flu, said that he was fencing his “worst of the year.”
Screeching half
UB mounted a short rally, winning the next two
bouts, both by the score of 5-4, giving the Bulls the
lead for the only time in the match. The team’s
momentum came to a screeching halt in Jon
Solomon’s final match against John Hamlin, Utica’s
star fencer.
Solomon jumped out to a 3-0 lead and finally
appeared to be out of his slump. Hamlin, a short and
stocJcy, fencer, fought back with effective parries and
lightning jabs. Solomon lost in overtime 5-4. Buffalo
Assistant Coach Jules Goldstein commented that
Solomon was keeping his duelling arm too low,
rendering his upper body an easier target. This was
(

Solomon’s first loss of the season and his record now
stands at ten wins and one loss.
UB entered the second round, the epee, behind
5-4, The last time the Bulls fenced Utica, they
defeated them soundly in the second round. This
time, however, Buffalo ran into trouble. Hamlin said.
“Today we wanted to be more aggressive by striking
them first. It worked, for we scored many of our
points when we hit them on the close targets, like
the hands.”
Ted Pawlicki kept UB in the match by winning
two of his three bouts, but Wayne Conrad and Tim
Rogers could only win one of their three bouts.
Too confident
The spectators were brought to their feet during
the last bout with Conrad battling Rick Beverly.
Conrad quickly slipped to a 3-0 deficit, but inched
his way back up to a 4-4 tie, making it the ninth
match of the afternoon to go into overtime. After
repeated clashes, Beverly finally parried Conrad’s
sword away and registered a clean hit on the torso,
clinching the match.
“We were weaker than we would have been
today,” said Coach Tom Bremer. “I guess we entered
the match a little too confident after beating our top
rival, Oswego last week. I’m glad we got the loss over
with now.”
The Bulls record fell to 5-1, while Utica’s is now

Staff Writer

With only one game left in the regular
intramural basketball season, many playoff spots still
remain undecided. Many of the races are still tight,
and next week’s games will decide which teams will
advance to the playoffs.
This Sunday, Waste will play the 76’s. This game
should be exciting as each team is undefeated and
are evenly matched. Another crucial match will
take place on Monday when two undefeated teams,
Wesley’s Wild Bunch and BSU, will cross paths.
These games are just two of the many important
games to be played.
Last week’s Sunday games were dominated by
the League leaders N.O.Y.F.B. (1 p.m.), Dynasty (2
p.m.) and Rich’s Reaches (5 p.m.), continued their
winning ways, as each team still remains undefeated

playoff spot. These teams, involved in a three-way
tie last semester, continue to fight for the lead. Last
Monday each team had won its games, thus keeping
the pressure on. It appears this standoff will go down
to the final game.
Undefeated, so what
In the Wednesday League, White Lightning beat
the Independence in a close battle. The win put
White Lightning at the top, with a record of 4-0 as
the Independence dropped back to 3-1.
On Thursday, the So What’s beat Fargo Sterling
by a score of 35-31. Control also picked up a win.
Both teams’ records remain unblemished at 4-0. Also
undefeated is AWB, who edged the Muff Divers by
one point. Other wins on Thursday went to The
Masticators who beat the Rim Robbers, and to the
Users Who topped Sigma Tau Gamma by one point.
Playoffs will begin March 5th and will run for

&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;

Ketter comes to grips with University’s problems
by Jay Rosen
mounting
to
criticism
of
his
In
response
administration. University President Robert Ketter met the
problems of the University head on Tuesday and walked
away with a Faculty Senate resolution thanking him for a
straightforward and candid address.
Ketter’s unexpected oration touched on eight major
what
the
University
the
and
dilemmas facing
administration is doing to solve them. The President told
the Senate that after adopting a “positive” Approach to
University problems, he left many faculty members with
the feeling that he “lives in a world totally different” from
theirs. Tuesday’s address was an effort to combat this
“insular” view of his administration and come to grips
with the shared crises of the University.
Before launching into his discussion of the University,
Ketter outlined his response to the Faculty Senate’s
Administrative Evaluation report. The report, completed
last April, detailed a plethora of problems in the
administrative process, including poor information flow,
personalized decision making and widely differing views of
the administrative process on succeeding levels.
To improve communication, Ketter said he plans to
establish monthly meetings with all Deans, Provosts and
Vice Presidents to air problems and “discuss items critical
to their operations.” Ketter stressed that these will not be
President’s meetings, but largely organized and conducted
by the Deans.

Eight problems
Ketter cited

included: the quality of academic programs;
inadequate physical facilities which do not enhance the
community
of
scholars; underfunding for capital
equipment and operating costs; the low level of externally
funded research; the need to identify a set of priorities for
funding; an improved registration process; and the need to
place departmental conflicts in the context of the
areas

Managing Editor

eight areas of concern which he felt are
contributing to the problem of overall low morale. Those

as a whole.
In the area of academic quality, which has been
accompanied by a concern for admission standards, Ketter
said that a feared drop in applications has leveled off
recently. He did not foresee a lower quality student body
being attracted to SUNY Buffalo.
Ketter then turned to the matter of outside review
teams. He explained that documents such as the Math
Sciences Review Committee Report
which was harshly
critical of both the academic environment here and the
central administration - are distributed freely to members
of the departments involved. He said the University
subjects itself to many such reviews that are on file and
available to the appropriate departments but that “these
reports are not available to any newspaper nor will they be
made available to any newspaper.” (The Review
Committee report was leaked to The Spectrum last month
and the Courier Express has since filed a Freedom of
Information Request for the highly sensitive document.
The University has denied the request.)

DOB villian again
Ketter said that state mandated reviews of the
doctoral programs here show that ‘There is no other
school in New York State which has a record equal to
ours

“If this is any indication of the quality of our
academic program, then I would have to say that we are
npt doing all that bad.”
Funding for library acquisitions has been the
University’s Number One priority, Ketter said, but those
efforts have been thwarted by the State legislature and the
Division of the Budget (DOB). He said that he will
continue to push for such funding, but that this year’s
budget does not even include enough money to keep the
libraries “even.”
Facilities problems are “not going away” Ketter said,
“but are getting horrendous.” SUNY Chancellor Clifton
Whatron has placed Buffalo construction at the top of his
“agenda for relief,” he observed.
Registration woeful
Accreditation problems, Ketter said, are “not casual
things.” Certain programs must have funds placed at their
disposal to retain accreditation and any “Academic Plan”
or priority list for funding within the University
should address this, he felt.
-

The President was clearly outraged at the registration
process here. A test case he sent through the process took
seven hours and two days to get registered. “1 am
absolutely disgusted with what’s going on in this are,” he

commented. Director of Admissions and Records (A&amp;R)
Richard Dremuk will be given the authority to “implement
sorely needed changes” in registration, he added.
Winding down his twenty minute report, Ketter told
the Senate, “I’ve talked problems and I apologize for
talking problems.” Rather than accepting his apology, the
Senate unanimously passed a resolution thanking the
President for the unprecendented address.

The history of North Buffalo:
old-timers and
Islanders
-

by Joel DiMarco
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Nobody knows exactly how
old the people who share the
student neighborhoods around the
Main Street Campus are, nor how
long they have been there, but it
must be for at least as long as
their 100-year-old houses have
been standing, right? Wrong!
The fact is, there were no
houses around the University until
about the turn of the century.
The only structures existing prior
to that time around the Main
Street campus were the Erie &amp;
Lackawanna Railroad and the
Lewis
J. Bennett Limestone
Quarry. The railroad is now part
of Conrail and the quarry pit was
largely filled in to make way for
the houses that now stand there.
These houses were not originally
built next to each other, but
separated from one another by as
much as 100 feet. Houses have
since been built, filling those
spaces. Behind the houses often
stood a horse stable or a chicken
coop, or both. Most of these have
since been converted into garages.
A little strange

As the years passed, trees,
houses, grass and families all grew
up together. The neighborhood
soon became part of the large
Dutch-German community that
once dominated Buffalo’s East
Side. “When we first moved here,
my husband and I were just
newlyweds,” recalls longtime
resident Helen Schedspurg. “We
used to grow a garden right where
the house behind mine now
stands Everybody had a garden

speak English for days, especially
when the snow locked us up in
the house.”
Another elderly resident, Rita
Faunmeyer. sent both her sons to
the University of Buffalo. “In
those days, the only non-German
people who lived here were a few
University professors. I remember
one especially, he divorced his
wife around 1935. The scandal
was so bad that when he died
about ten years later, only a few
people went to the funeral. We
liked, the ‘college people’ as we
called them, but we always
thought that they were a little
strange.”
"When the Depression came.”
Rita continued, “the professors
were the only ones here who
had

people’s
paychecks could buy them more
and more. Some people got very
jealous because of this, but they
didn’t know that at the time the
college people gave a lot of money
to
the parish
church (St
Joseph’s). The church would use
this money to help make sure no
one starved.”
The Depression has come to be
the greatest memory in the minds
of local residents. It was an event
that lingered until the coming of
WWI1.

she remembered. “They led us to

The real idea was to purify the

Black History Month
The African-American Cultural Center will sponsor a three-day coiloquim on
African History this weekend, February 24—26. Research papers on various aspects of
Black History will be presented by community and University scholars, notably Musa
Abdul Hakim, Director of History at the Center, Cecil Blake of the Communication
Department here and Ed Smith of the Theater Department.
The discussions will be the culmination of other events in observance of African
Black History Month and will begin at 7 p.m. on the 24th, 4 p.m. on the 25th and
26th. Call 884-2013 for further information.

Thirty-six candidates began campaigning last Friday for ten
Student Association (SA) positions. The elections will be held March 1.
2 and 3 following almost two weeks of what promises to be intense
politiking
The candidates were informed Friday of the campaign’s rules and
regulations by Election and Credentials (E&amp;C) Director Rob Whitaker.
The rules govern everything from spending limitations to the location
of posters throughout the University. Whitaker is making sure that all
candidates do not exceed their spending quota by asking them to
submit a running audit to E&amp;C Friday and a final audit at the close of
the campaign.
SA President Dennis Delia said, “This is E&amp;C’s election and they
will do the best job possible to keep it clean.” E&amp;C will examine any
complaint and decide on the validity of the protest. In the case of a
legitimate protest, E&amp;C may publically censor the guilty candidate,
fine his campaign fund or, if the offense warrants, expel the Candidate
from the election
Despite the clarity of the regulations, a minor debate arose
concerning endorsements. Candidates questioned E&amp;C officials on
exactly what groups can endorse. Delia responded, “Only The
Spectrum can endorse candidates since it is the only organization who
interviews all the candidates and makes its decision objectively."
Groups and faculty members have been asked to refrain trom
publically supporting candidates.
Candidate forums
E&amp;C emphasized that in order to prevent any difficulties,
candidates should come to the Committee if they plan on undertaking
anything which may be the least bit controversial. E&amp;C rules on the
legality of any act and its decision stands despite possible opposition
from candidates.
Two forums will be held to acquaint students with the candidates,
the first of which will be February 24 at I p.m. in Haas Lounge. The
other forum will be the following Monday at 9 p.m. in Porter Lounge
At this time all candidates will give short speeches and students will
have the opportunity to pose questions to the prospective officers.
Five parties and eight independent candidates are taking part in
this year’s election. Four candidates are running for each of the
following offices: President, Executive Vice President, Vice President
for Sub-Board I, Inc., and Director of Student Affairs. Three students
are vying for each of the following positions: Director of Academic
Affairs and Director of Student Activities and Services. Eight
candidates are looking to garner one of the three available Student
Association of the State University (SASU) positions. The most highly
contested position appears to be that of Treasurer as six candidates are

Franklin Ajaye to perform

One of the brightest new comedic talents of
today’s entertainment scene, Franklyn Ajaye,
will speak in the Spaulding Cafeteria on Sunday,
February 26 at 8 and 10:30 p.m.
Ahaye’s comedy has been described as a
“street-talking soliloquy that’s rambling, spicy
and awfully funny,” by Michael Ross of the Los
Angeles Times. Ajaye was born in New York but
moved-to Los Angeles when young. Like many

other contemporary comedians, the essence of
Ajaye’s humor is largely autobiographical. “Like,
you break up with some chick,” Ajaye explains,
“and you think, T can’t live without her,’ and six
months later, you’re surviving and you’re

thinking about all the funny things you did to get
going over to her house, peeking on
her back

and you tell somebody
about it, and they say, *Oh yeah, I did it too,’
and you start to laugh. It’s funny
Ajaye never wanted to be an actor, just a
comedian. He tried to postpone the decision
whether to become a comedian or not by going
to
Columbia Law School but found it
“impossible to turn off the urge to. make people
laugh.” Ajaye impressed the critics with his
acting skill in the hit movie Car Wash. Tickets are

�EDITORIAL
Forum for all

Prior knowledge

Students at this University must think hard about the upcoming
Student Association elections. This year more than ever, because of the
mounting criticism of the control of this University from within and
.without, students must demand a more active role in making academic
and administrative decisions.
Yet student input into this decision making cannot be sought
haphazardly, and those students doing the inputing cannot be chosen at
random. Today’s forum for SA candidates is the perfect place to begin to
grill the people running for office on how they can better the quality of
student life here and on how aware they are of the problems facing this
University.
Go to the forum at 1 p.m. today in Haas Lounge in Squire Hall. Be
demanding of the candidates; ask them the most pointed questions
possible. What about the transition to the Amherst Campus? How has it
disrupted student activities here? What about overbudgeting and the
direct control by students of their own money?
Be loud. Be angry. Some people are better suited to fill student
government positions than others. The students who vote them in will
make the decision. Ask the right questions. Make the right decision.

Address
We commend President Ketter for his straightforward approach to
some of the University's problems. In addressing the Faculty Senate last
Thursday, Ketter showed a sorely needed concern for a more public
stance by the University Administration.
However, we remind him that if he is genuinely interested in
shedding the Ainistration's "insular" label, he must do more. Much more.
He rjUist answer'the serious questions raised almost a year ago by the
Faculty .Senate Administrative Evaluation team.
Why do different administrators hold conflicting views of how the
decision making process is structured? Why did so many members of the
Administration raise a concern for decision making based on
personalities? Why do various levels of the Administration hold back
informationfrom each other?
Ketter must come face to face with sinking faculty and student
morale and the lack of confidence in his Administration. And again, we
stress for the President that the real significance of harshly critical
documents like the Math Sciences Review Committee Report is not
whether the report's dismal views are public or not public: is not that the
President can find 83 other reports which say that everything here is fine,
is not that we must be a very secure institution to allow these committees
on our campus in the first place.
No, the real impact of the Review Committee Report is that many
members of the University community perceive the academic
environment here as dismal, the Administration as inept and the future of
the institution as bleak.
The campus is disillusioned. It is Ketter's responsibility to recognize
this and attempt to deal with the sources of that disillusionment.
The deepest sources, as we all know, are construction and budget
woes. The President's efforts on the Albany front have been admirable.
He has fought continually for our slice of an ever-shrinking pie.
However, students are largely ignorant of these constant battles. This
is one symptom of an almost critical lack of communication between the
President of this University and its students.
We therefore propose that President Ketter address a special joint
session of the Undergraduate and GraduateStudent Associations and the
general student body in Haas Lounge of Squire Hall. We further propose
that, similar to the President's address Tuesday, Ketter candidly deal with
the crises facing SUNY Buffalo. SA and GSA should begin efforts
immediately to set up the address.
We only ask for the same respect shown the Faculty Senate. An
hpur's worth of time at this critical point in the University's history
seems, to us, to be a reasonable request.

I find it hard to believe that the faculty and the
administration knew nothing about the cheating

The recent concern of cheating in the School of
Management has compelled me to write this letter. It
is my opinion that the administration is handling the
matter in a typical bureaucratic fashion, seeking to
protect itself from its own faults. Dean Foster, in
your memorandum to the undergraduate students
you claim, and I quote, “It has come to my
attention from a variety of sources that cheating in
the School’s undergraduate program, and especially
in the Registered Accounting Program, has become
both systematic and extensive.” Let us ask, When
did this first come to your attention? 1 have
personally witnessed many complaints of cheating
throughout my brief interim here at the School of
Management. These complaints were addressed
directly to the faculty here at the school. Are your

syndicate long before it was disclosed. Why weren’t
measures taken to redress the wrong before a student
was caught? Dean Foster, I quote f rom your
memorandum once again, “The faculty in general,
and the accounting faculty in particular, will shortly
be formulating procedures to forestall cheating on

lines of communication so screwed up that you
never received any knowledge to the matter of
cheating before the recent incident? Dean Alutto,
will you make the claim that ?ou had absolutely no
prior knowledge of cheating before&gt; February 7,

exams.”

Don’t you think it’s a little late?
Gentlemen, I agree that severe penalties must' be
enforced to repress cheating. However, condemning
the first student for what, in actuality, is partially
your own fault seems a little too harsh It is the fault
of the faculty and the administration that conditions
became so lapse as to allow a coalition to collude on
examinations. Gentlemen, are you willing to expel
yourselves? 1 await your reply.

The past few years have seen a tremendous
increase in the number of Accounting majors at
universities across the country. As a result of this
rapid influx, it has become increasingly difficult to
secure a good job without a (i.l’.A. in excess of 3.5.
Predictably, this had led to intense competition
within UB's Accounting program. It has also led to

widespread cheating.

Management was infested with a large number of
compulsive cheaters who would stop at nothing to
get an A in a course.

problems came to a head, groups of students voiced
their complaints both Ao Dean Alutto and various

complaints, the Accounting faculty established

being given,
were not

On the first test given under the new guidelines, a
student was accused of cheating. It was at this time
that Dean Foster sent the memo that was reprinted
in last Wednesday's The Spectrum. This memo seems
to have caused some controversy because some
people believe that expulsion is too severe a penalty
for a student who has been found cheating. This
argument, however, is not valid for various reasons.
Certified Public Accountants are expected to
report on the fairness of a firm’s financial statements
for the thousands of investors who are considering
purchasing the company’s stocks or bonds. For this
reason, a C.P.A. is held to the highest standards of
professional conduct. It is therefore improper to
allow a student to enter this field after he has been
shown to be dishonest. Furthermore, consider the
plight of those honest students who lost the
possibility of a public accounting job when dozens
of others piled up A’s in their courses through

unscrupulous means.
Unfortunately, it is too late to rectify the
injustice done to those of us who are graduating in
May. However, should the School of Management
strictly adhere to the policies that they are
advocating, Jhere is at least some hope that future
Accounting students at this University can both be
honest and get the job offers and graduate school
acceptances that they deserve.

Am

of cheating?

24 February 1978

To the Editor.
It seems the management department isn’t the
only one with cheating problems. I just came back
from a calculus 142 mid-term and am thoroughly
disgusted with what was going on. People were
reading answers out of open notebooks, exchanging
test answers, and talking about answers.
I believe it is the fault of our instructor, a Dr.

who
is
the
most
without question
incompetent instructor I have ever come in contact
with. His teaching methods include turning away
from the class and mumbling while he scribbles on
the board, a practice he continued during the test
while the maggots xeroxed their neighbor’s exams.
I can only hope someone with authority looks
into this before the next fiasco.

Dan Sheridan

�FEEDBACK

Guest Opinio
Once again, the issue of arming the University
Police has arisen. We, at the University Police, are

concerned over the repetitiveness of the issue. We
take a great deal of pride in the job we perform and
find it very disheartening and demoralizing to have
to defend ourselves every time an issue like this one
is raised.
The purpose of this letter is not to take any
stand on the issue, but to present some facts that we
are certain very few students know.
In 1976, of the 30 municipalities in Erie County
reporting to the New York State Department of
Criminal Justice Services, the State University of
New York at Buffalo ranked third (3rd) in serious
crimes and fifth (5th) in overall crimes. In 1977, the
University of Buffalo had a higher total crime rate
than any of the following municipalities reporting
crimes in Erie County:
Village of Hamburg, Village of Lancaster,
Village of Akron, Village of East Aurora, Town of
Aurora, Town of Boston, Town of Brant, Town of
Orchard Park, Town of Eden, Town of Grand Island,
Town of Holland, Town of Lancaster, City of
Lackawanna, City of Tonawanda, Village of
Kenmore, Village of Alden, Village of Depew,
Village of Sloan, Village of Gowanda, Village of
Springville, Village of Angola, Village of Biasdell,
and the State University College at Buffalo.
The only municipalities with more reported
crimes than
the University of Buffalo were,
consecutively: the City of Buffalo, Town pf
Cheektowaga, Town
of Amherst, Town of
Tonawanda, Town of West Seneca and Town of
Hamburg. The last two towns had a similar number
of total crimes reported to that of the University of
Buffalo. In some years, in fact, our total crime rate
has surpassed theirs.

The last person to be shot on campus was a man
in Townsend Lot on November 8, 1977. He was shot
numerous times in the buttocks and his assailants
stole $ 1 50 from his wallet.
In at least two instances, University Police
Officers were shot at with guns. Two officers were
shot at by a sniper on Flint Road on the Amherst
Campus, and two officers were shot at by a passing
motorist in the Farber Parking Lot on the Main
Street Campus. He also recalls two officers were shot
at with a bow and arrow in the Main-Bailey Parking
Lot on the Main Street Campus.
In response to Lawrence Kluger who thinks
other police agencies should be called onto the
. . . one or two incidents a year
campus for the
that require an armed force ...” I don’t think the
taxpayers in Buffalo or Amherst would be too happy
to send officers to the several hundred calls we have
listed previously that might very easily require an
armed response. They would have to hire more men
and assign them permanently to our campuses
In the last year there have been three police
officers shot and killed in Erie County None of
them knew beforehand that an attack would be
made against them. Maybe Mr Kluger can predict
when an armed response is necessary, but most
people can’t. The death rate for police officers on
duty is 4 2 per 100,000 per year We can predict that
there will probably be a University Police officer
killed at this University within the next ten years,
and it won’t matter whether he is armed or not
■Perhaps Jeff Lessoff, who so strongly opposes
arming of the University Police, might convince the
Student Association to provide funds to buy bullet
proof vests for the University Police (they are about
$35 cheaper than guns).
As for training and experience, any one can
become a good shot with a revolver after several
hours of qualified instruction. In fact, all members
of the University Police have completed the New
York State Police Pistol Course and are qualified to
use firearms of various types. It's not how good a
shot you are. hut how good your judgement is in
using that weapon The men and women in the
University Police Department respond to just as
many calls on a per capita basis as the Buffalo Police
or the Amherst Police and the calls have just as wide

Two sides to guns
To the Editor.

In the Friday issue of The Spectrum, L Kluger
stated that since “Great Britain survives (without
U.B, could do as well.”
Bobbies carrying guns)
U.B.
is
not
Unfortunately,
Great Britain.
Furthermore, and unlike in Great Britain (which to
their credit has had strict gun control laws for a long
...

time), firearms (legal and illegal) are readily available
to almost any U.S. citizen. In addition, it is really
not practical to compare the attitude that the British
public might have concerning the use and possession
of firearms with that of the U.S. public.
Mr. Kluger also has the misconception that the
Town of Amherst Police can be trained to respond
to incidents in Ellicott through the use of simple
“maps and tours.” Unfortunately, again, the
Amherst Police are not nearly as well trained as the
University Police are when it comes to properly
handling incidents concerning students and/or

non-students on the U.B. campus.
As far as Mr. Kluger’s reference to “self-rule”
goe»: since when does the democratic process of
voting guarantee that the “-right” decision will be
made? Remember, it was the voters who e'ected
Richard Nixon to the Presidency.
Now, with regard to Gerry Walsh’s paranoia
ridden letter, I fail to understand how a supposedly
intelligent U.B. student can assume that the U.B.

police officers would be handed firearms without
first going through rigorous training procedures?
Thus far, 1 have not heard any reasonable
arguments against the arming of U.B. police officers.
However,.one might ponder the following question.
Is it not possible that, the arming of U.B. police
officers might cause some potential criminal
offenders to react by carrying firearms themselves
and thus substantially increase the danger to both
police officers and students?
Should the issue of firearms for U.B. police
officers ever actually come up before the U.B.
administration; 1 hope that those involved in the
final decision (administrators, students, etc.) take a
more realistic view of both sides of the situation.

Susan Grey’s article, “K.D. Whitehead on
Abortion” in the February 15th issue points up a
problem with media coverage of this subject.
it is subtitled
Although
“The Conservative
Viewpoint,” in reality it is “A liberal’s summary of
the conservative viewpoint.” The author quotes bits
and pieces of Whitehead’s position, often out of
context or proportion, sometimes with sarcastic
comment of her own. 1 have noticed that
pro-abortion spokesmen are generally allowed to
express their views in their own article or an article
written by someone sympathetic to their view.
There are good and foolish arguments both for
and against abortion on demand. Spokesmen on
both sides range from the articulate to the hysterical.
However, when the media cover abortion, they
invariably contrast the weakest, most narrow-minded
arguments against abortion with the most effective
arguments in favor of legalization. The most
unpopular, inarticulate politicians available are
labeled as “typical” of right-to-lifers, whereas the
other side is always represented by its most sensitive,
compassionate spokesmen.
If a person such as Califano criticizes abortion,
the TV reporter or newspaper will invariably bring
up the point that he is personally biased because of
his Catholicism. People who favor legalization are
implicitly considered “unbiased” or neutral, because
their own value system or ideology isn’t mentioned.
You may think I’m exaggerating the effects of

the media bias. Doesn’t it seem strange that
right-to-lifers, who hold the same views that the
overwhelming majority of Americans of all religions
held
15 years ago, are suddenly considered
narrow-minded extremists? Does morality change as
fast as the Gallup poll does?
I urge all fair minded readers and journalism
people, regardless of their own stand on abortion, to
fight for both sides to be presented on an equitable
basis in the media I encourage those who are
interested to read Whitehead’s book, or contact

�Reactor reaction
To the Editor.
Recent correspondence in this newspaper has
considered the dispute over the safety of the
proposed activities of the Nuclear Science and
Technology Facility (NFSTF). The appropriate
forum for settling these questions is the hearing
process provided by the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission. The petition directed to the Nuclear
Regulatory Commission raised substantial issues not
considered in (he original NSTF request. The NSTF
denied the importance of (he issues raised but chose
not to contest the petitions in any other way.
It is necessary to qualify a statement in the
letter from the NSTF. Rachel Carson College has not
taken a position on the appropriateness of the
campus reactor fuel transfer proposal nor has Rachel
Carson College signed the petition requesting a
hearing on this issue. In fact, it would be in
appropriate for us to intervene in such proceedings.
The role of the college in this dispute has been to
promote dialogue and open the issue for discussion
by the campus community. Rachel Carson College
did sponsor the only campus forum which
considered the proposed fuel storage. Several
individuals constituted themselves as a group named
The University Community Concerned "About
Reactors (UCARE). Although many of the signers of
the petition to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
do consider themselves to be members of Rachel
Carson College, they do not speak for the college.
The open forum which we sponsored revealed a
broad spectrum of opinion on the proposed reactor
activities. Our college encourages students to learn to
think clearly and tries to prepare students to take a
psoition based upon what they have learned.
Unfortunately, most students interested in
learning more about nuclear energy have very few
opportunities to do so&lt;at this University. We would
be happy to share the responsibility for teaching
such courses to science and non-science majors with
any unit that* wishes to do so. in accordance with
our charter, we wish to promote an informed debate
within the campus community about environmental
problems and nuclear safety is certainly one of those
problems.

Nuclear competence questioned
To the t'ditor

This letter is in response to the one by Charlie
Thomas and Martin Haas of the Nuclear Science and
Technology Facility (hereafter called “the reactor
people”) which appeared in The Spectrum, February
17. Their letter and comments to The Spectrum
reporter defended their actions in the recent
radioactive leak from the reactor and denied that
their procedures were “bush league in competence.”
To recount events concerning the reactor leak,
on October 7 of last year, the campus reactor was
closed down by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission
(NRC). The reason was patently obvious. The
reactor was leaking 500 gallons per day of
radioactive water at levels 227 times the maximum
permissible concentrations allowed by the NRC, the
so-called “safe levels.” The reactor people claim “the
leak was a matter of interpretation.” But, in fact,
over 13,000 gallons of radioactive water leaked out
before “the NRC sent an inspector unacquainted
with this facility,” who, I surmise, was quite
alarmed. In my experience, it is a cold day in hell
before the NRC shuts down a reactor for breaking
the rules, so thank goodness for “unacquainted”
inspectors.

In order to repair the leak, the reactor people
would have had to have transferred all the
radioactive fuel from the reactor. The reactor people
attest to the safety of the proposed equipment and
procedures which I classified as “bush league in
competence.” A storage barrel with a plexiglass top
for holding these toxic materials. A fork lift to drop
the fuel elements through a hole in the floor.
Campus Security to check the water levels on
weekends. And so on. As support for their
procedures, the reactor people cited the reviews by
the Campus Nuclear Safety Committee and the NRC
Staff. “These analyses have demonstrated the
soundness of our procedures." This is unadulterated
eyewash, as I would hope the reactor people would
know. The final arbiter in the contested proceeding
is the NRC Atomic Safety and Licensing Board. In
that public forum, the reactor people would present
their case, be cross-examined and the Board would
make the safety judgment. The reactor contains a
large amount of highly toxic materials and citizens
have the right to ensure that they are handled safely.

rights as citizens to protect their interests, by filing a
petition for a public hearing. This is what the reactor
people call “an opportunity for . . . impediment.”
As a result, of the shutdown, two classes and
research “important to the National Energy
Program” have been affected. Rather than vent their
frustrations at groups doing an important public
service, and the NRC for sending “an inspector
unacquainted with this facility,” a little humility and
self-criticism is in order. The reactor people have no
one to blame but themselves.
on-again, off-again for over

Since the leak has been
a year and a half, the

reactor could have been shut down in a more orderly
manner without disrupting students.
Many of us are sorry that students were
disadvantaged by the shutdown. However, there are
some lessons here for students who are trying to
decide what career to enter. If you are an
engineering student who intends to go into reactor
work, you should be forewarned that there is a large
and growing section of people who will not like you,
who think you are doing something which endangers
their health and safety. Under this incessant attack,
you will become bitter and fabricate rationalizations
for your actions, that outsiders are taking “an
opportunity for . . . impediment,” when, in reality,
citizens are only availing themselves of their
constitutional rights. You will be aligned with big
money interests such as banks and utilities against
considerable community resentment: labor (not
increasing energy
construction. trades) against
consuming automation of the work place, consumer,
poor, black and senior citizen groups against electric
rate increases to pay for “cheap” nuclear power,
environmentalists against nuclear pollution, and
farmers against high voltage transmission lines.
Take this opportunity caused by a cancelled
class to ask yourself whether you want to enter an
industry which is being phased out by social
pressure, or whether, instead, you want to face the
brighter future of solar energy and conservation with
many of us. Several courses at the University would
lead you into this growing field. For your sake, don’t
become a reactor person.

�Patti Smith: poetry, anarchy
in fervent rocking madness
by Terence Kenny
Spectrum Music Staff

On Sunday afternoon Patti
Smith entered a Buffalo hospital
and was given a shot for the
Russian flu. Later that evening
Patti entered Clark gym and gave
us a shot of magnetic impulse and
anarchistic revery. And we needed
it.

The gym filled up pronto, with
globs of people squatting on the

floor while the laid back voyeurs
sought refuge on the bleachers.
No one really knew what to

this event had an eerie aura,
would Buffalo go crazy for some

front of the stagfe was a small but
vibrant clique of Patti Smith
freaks that had already bared
witness to her antics either in
CBGB's or some other equivicabte
hovel. The rest were all eager to
discover what this woman who
has been labeled the "Queen of
Punk" is all about. When it was
over no one had to ask, they
realized why they keep hearing

Patti Smith's name and not her
music. She is too vofitile and
vulgar to have a top forty hit. But

�Martin Luther King: the
doctor, the man the morale
,

by Michael F. Hopkins
Spectrum

Arts Staff

Now we shall speak of a man.
So many. So many years it has
been, since the Montgomery Bus
Boycott,
since the Freedom
Rides, since Birminghan, since
many gave a damn. The March,
and the Dream borne from the
deep rooted soil to the bastions of
authority. A man whom sleepers
envied and too many well-wishers
took for granted as a god.
I look around today and
wonder where the dreams went.

Luther King, Jr. is the raising of
issues and questions that each and
all should have answered long
before the first appearance of the
Doctor with the bus strike in
Montgonery.

One may say, concerning
human rights, that there should
have been no question.

One aspect pointed

out by Dr.
(portrayed quite well by
Paul Winfield) is the duplicity- of

away om the surfs of calculated
apathy or battered by the cold
weather of hate and envy? Are
they underground cultivating the
hope of this world to emerge like

The stage at Shea's Buffalo Theatre is blank, void of the
slightest hint of location. The performer is on a boat, paddling
slowly through calm waters. Below him are the fish he seeks, his
arms pulsating up and down in the motions of vibrating fins. In this

first sequence, "The Fisherman," there is the man himself, the boat
and the fish, created only by body movements. From there on, I
was wondering if there was anything or anyone Marcel Marceau
couldn't portray.
The scenario changed several times. Act One was devoted to
sketches of styles and exercises. In "The Amusement Park,"
Marceau took us on an excursion from the shoooting gallery to the
midway booths. Of course, the memorable part of this was his trip
into a house of mirrors, holding onto imaginary glass and bumping
into non existent walls.
Next an angel arrives from the heavens, to the accompaniment
of a brief tape of choral music, and he investigates the activity on
this planet. Unfortunately, he mixes in with the wrong crowd and
takes to our popular pasttimes; wine, women and song. The Lord
interrupts our friend on every descent into corruption, usually with
flashes of blue light and a retake on the holy music.
The immortal clown

The second half of the program starred Marceau's immortal
clown. Bip, who has existed since 1947, according to the playbill.
Bip first became a frustrated lion tamer who couldn't provoke his
trainees to jump through his hoop. He even had a go at suicide in
the next bit, which never happened because the poor boy couldn't
find a suitable method that he liked!
Marceau proceeded to do what I thought was the most
humorous scene, "Bip Plays David and Goliath." A black monolith
was placed centerstage to draw the line between the
characterizations of the meek shephard and the fearful warrior. He
would pounce from behind either side of the partition and David
or Goliath would emerge. What really kicked off the laughter was
the quickness with which M»Ceau changed from one person to the
other. He would burst out with a stout posture and a gruff
expression, run sround the black wall and come out in a shy,
playful patter in just a matter of seconds
Hits the spot

The show did not end on a comic note, ironically. "Bip As A
Soldier" was the only skit which moved onto tragedy. Bip
accidentally stumbled onto a platoon and he nonchalantly joined
them on the route to battle. The image of glory soon disappeared,
as Bip was caught in a foxhole with his comrades. The scene
concluded with Bip shot and dying, his body succumbing to the
wound and one arm outstretched into the air, grasping for futile
escape.

Marceau is not a youngster, but he hits the spot with all ages.
His impersonations of children were silly, and even the behavior of
the adults he portrayed was juvenile. Just as Mark Twain used to
consider himself an "innocent" in a world of the unknown,
Marceau explores this theme in his sketches. A force works against
each character (primarily a stroke of bad luck) and sets up the
comic mishaps to come.
I was basically unsure about how to approach this stunning
event of pantomime. My eyes were glued to every move Marceau
made and it wasn't always easy to determine what he was doing. I
caught on sometimes and missed out on a few parts but my
attention was held throughout both acts. The short length of the
show, ninety minutes, was a compact span to cover eleven sketches
and enough to wet my appetite for theatrical events. And too, it
certainly convinced me to get back into the physical shape of
things.

�Sweet Home Players

Audience approval is
saving grace of play
Sitting through the Sweet Home Player's production of Jack
Sharkey’s play Saving Grace. I felt the same kind of culture shock I
went through as a freshman when I realized that the Boulevard Mall
was a hangout and chicken wings were de rigueur. It's making the
ordinary extraoridinary.

Saving Grace is a harmless little romantic comedy set in, as the
program puts is,' Jackson Heights, Long Island. Having once lived in
Jackson Heights, Queens I took this as an omen, as it turned out a
correct one, because Sharkey’s script belongs to a realm of television
and theater where fluff headed heroines are a dime a dozen, where real
life acted out in front of an audience is too much of an intrusion. The
night I went, the audience ate it up. One man loudly termed it better
than anything done at the Studio Arena.

s j !A sheltered schoolgirl
Grace Larkin, the main character, is thirtyish secretary for an
insurance firm who lives out her fantasies by watching old movies on
T.V. Her lecherous boss, Mr. Chepple, has been making passes at her
for the four years she's worked for him. And for four years, Grace has
been sidestepping them. The play opens with Grace and Mr. Chepple
"Call me Walter" returning to her apartment after work. Nervous
because Walter is the first man she's ever had in her home alone with
her, Grace babbles on and on, sounding like a sheltered schoolgirl.
When she tries on the Hawaiian hula outfit which is Walter's Christmas
gift to her, the farcical elements of the play appear. One by one always
it seems, at inconvenient times, characters who prove to be more
interesting than Grace enter thorugh her apartment door, happily
pairing off by the end of the play into two unlikely couples.
Mary Frances Bannigan, a former student here, plays Grace with a
loudness I found annoying at first but which gradually toned down
into an attempt to inject the scatterbrained Grace with some sort of
credibility. Looking like a cross between Carol Burnett and the late
Judy Holliday, the blonde Bannigan gives a performance which
genuinely improves as the play does not.

and, more important,
their common bonds and mutual
respect. One catches admiration
mingling with sharp wits in the
scene when Dr. King deplores
Malcolm's argument that hate (at
least) shows black people who the
enemy is. King sighs, "So we're no
better than they are." Malcolm,
grinning, retorts, "Who said we're
any better. You're a racist."
Both men smile. Yet they
know too well the center of this
issue: If each culture is no better,
can either be any worse? This
danger has been repeated thru alt
of history, and even now we
haven't really thought about it
seriously (Witness how, too often,
culture
is
substituted for
superiority
an axe to grind,
rather than identity. Everyone is
of an identity, knowingly or not).
Even the statement Dr. King
interjects, that Malcolm actually
hates &lt;foeing black because of his
lifelong rejection by Whites,
reminds one of the careless

statements to which even these
two, being human, might give in.
(Remember when Dr. King won
the Peace Prize? Malcolm,

trying
that this award was by ne
means an end to the struggle,
made the error of publicly saying
"Martin Luther King is a chump,
not a champ!” He quickly
corrected that).
The strong irony here occurs
when Malcolm requests Martin to
modify his stand on nonviolence
before (he notes with regret)
"even your own people will
discredit you". It is when
Malcolm modifies (or is it
concentrates?)
his
stand
aesthetically that he is murdered
to note

in exactly this way, at least on the
surface.
Even more notable When Dr.
King's international views begin to
parallel Malcolm's views, he is
murdered.
Suggestion? There are several
(the FBI, from their own released
dossiers, is projected here), but
the final question is one of each
individual's responsibility. We kill
with our overdependence on one
or two people as quickly as those
who lurk in wait with bullets or
lies. Dr. King and Malcolm made
each person realize his full
potential. Be somebody.
Let us do so. It is high time to
celebrate birth, not death.

distributes a more balanced group attack. Guitarist Rick
Witkowski pointed out that although the dichotomy
developed unintentionally, the album does come across as
a nice way of saying "goodbye to John and hello to the
new group." The group is happy that any controversies
failed to be fabricated with Palumbo's splitting.

There's safety in numbers, and numbers don't lie.
For Pittsburgh rock group Crack the Sky the numbers
have changed, yet one may safely derive a conceptual flair
from the sum total of it all. With their headlining
performance Saturday evening in Shea's Buffalo Theatre,
Crack the Sky proved that the shuffling of key
components of a rock band does not necessarily denote
irreversible destruction.
_

Crack the Sky is in a period of transition. The group's
one time singer, lyricist and philosopher, John Palumbo,
has left the band, frustrated over taking certain directions
with the music and making specific statements about
himself. What normally happens with the departure of a
person as important as Palumbo, although his leaving was
relatively unpublicized, is that many of the informed
become dismayed, assuming the group can never perform
again.

A sense of unity and collectiveness now solidifies
Crack the Sky's stage presence. New vocalist Gary Lee
Chappell stands competently between older standards,
"Hold On" and "Mind Baby" as well as the later stuff,
"Safety In Numbers." Guitarist Rick Witkowski and Jim
Griffiths counteract heavy-handed tiffing with delicate
acoustic strains. Percussionist Joey D'Amico, besides
complex rhythms and syncopation, sings of "Nuclear
Apathy" with a teddy bear in arms, of course. Heavy
orchestral fills via string synthesizers and Gary DePaul
make Crack the Sky's first encore, a cover of the Beatles'
"I Am the Walrus," work. And Joe Macre is simply one of
the most underrated bassists in the industry.

When it was announced last year that Rodan
would make its final appearance, people listened,
some for the first time. McVan's Nite Club, the most
important club in Buffalo didicated to giving
exposure to the less commercial side of rock music
(progressives, glitter, punks, etc.) experienced its
largest audience ever; fans standing on chairs, fans
waiting to get in, simply wall to wall people. The
death of what was once known as "Buffalo's
premiere progressive rock baijd*' vyas . quickly
transformed into the musical eveof' of the Buffalo
bar scene that year. The sadness of it all was that it
took the group's dissolution to finally bring the
people together.
If only a segment, maybe
one-fourth, of that crowd would have supported the
band with any consistency, Rodan would probably
have never split. Such is the unique musician's
syndrome in Buffalo
the commercially inflicted
trauma and the misnomer of "local".
Light Years was projected as the first off-shoot
proper from Rodan as drummer Ted Reinhardt,
actually being the first to re-establish, went about
linking up with Spyro Gyra. Consisting of Rodan
guitarist Bruce Brucato, Talas bassist Bill Sheehan
and Aurora drummer Mark Miller (formerly with the
Rochester group Black Sheep), Light Years surfaced
as something of a locally based "supergroup" and
promised to be one of the most inventive and
electra-charged arrangements ever to attempt the
club circuit in Buffalo.
Then, i just a matter of weeks, Light Years
became the definitive good news/bad news scenario;
good news for Bill Sheehan, bad news for the
remainder of the band.

It's not quite often that a group comes along with the
ability to transcend simplicity and complexity without
totally losing their audience. A prime illustration of this
may have been Crack the Sky's performance Saturday.
They may have baffled a few, but that is good. The most
important image conveyed during Crack the Sky's
performance was that of a band that can invent and
entertain, even without John Palumbo.
Someone once said these guys coujd be the next
Beatles. I guess everyone's still searching for that
substitution. As for me, I don't care I'm a bit more
apathetic, nuclear apathetic. They tell us something's
wrong with the moon, my friends, but from what I could
gather Saturday night, everything's fine in Pittsburgh.

The Winter Spy, Paul Henissart, (Pocket Books, Now
York. $1.95, 270p.p.)
With the release of The Winter Spy Paul has
firmly established himself as a new master of the
espionage novel.
Like the vast network of intelligence agencies,
spies and diplomacy that guides global events, the
plot of this exciting and well-written story is also
intricate. The principal character is Edouard
Rappaport, a special agent for the AVH, the
Hungarian special intelligence agency. He is assigned
by his superior, Ana Pecs, to participate in the
murder of Robert Winter, the special advisor to the
president of the United States who is on his way to
an important summit meeting in Vienna.
With the aide of a ruthless assassin, Rappaport
carries out his assignment with admirable precision.
It turns out that Winter had been a triple agent: first
for the Americans, then for the Hungarians and the
KGB, and then for the Americans again. Although
his murder might hamper the peace talks, the AVH
thought it more dangerous to keep the volatile
Winter alive.
Afterwards, Rappaport finds trouble escaping
the country. Under the orders of Pecs, all of his
connections have forsaken him. Pecs wants him
arrested by the Australian police so he won't
attempt to take over her position. From here on in,
Rqppaport must run.

lies in Pec's office. If Rapppaport can overcome the
enormous security system and procure the plans, he
is free; if he cannot, then the whole world is his
enemy.
Underlying the brisk action of the story is a
fascinating subplot, the human story of Rappaport's
coping with his past. This transforms a near perfect
spy plot into an interesting emotional story as well.

The Oranging of America, by Max Apple (Bantam
Paperback, $1.96,163pp.)
In 1970 Charles A. Reich, a professor at Vale
University', published a book called The Greening of
America. It was indeed a well-timed book: one of
the first ot gather the remaining pieces of the
"explosive" Sixties and attempt to extract a cohesive
set of outlooks and conclusions. "Consciousness,"
said Reich, "takes the elements it finds and arranges
them to make a life and a society that reflect man's
needs and hopes. In Kesey's Sometimes A Great
Notion in Vonnegut's Cat's Cradle in Wallace
Stevens' poetry, in psychedelic music, man seeks to
create for himself an order by which he can live
To call this order 'fiction' is just a way of saying that
hte only reality man has is the one he makes."
I'm not sure Max Apple has read The Greening
of America but I wouldn't be surprised if he did.
Apple, a young writer whose name alone is enpugh
to give even Hunter. Thompson pause, is the author
of a charmingly outrageous collection of short
stories called The Pranging of America. Coincidence,
you say? Well, maybe. Yet, there are enough
similarities in Reich's pshychology and Apple's
fiction to suspect that they agree on more than just
the idea that "America is turning colors.

uses them to create a kind of
"biographical fiction."
This style of writing ■fr1 Apple's strong and,
apparently, favorite suit. The Oranging of America
abounds with jreal people Jiving out an absurdly
fictional realify. None other than Fidel Castro
himself appears in "Understanding Alvarado", a
story about a Cuban baseball player known as
Achilles "Archie" Alvarado.

One-on-one
The end of the story finds Castro on the mound
in a one-on-one, pitcher vs. hitter duel against
ex-rookie of the year Victdr Zloto, the outcome of
which will determine whether Alvaredo returns to
the Chicago White Sox, or stays in Cuba to fight the
revolution. "It will be more than fair," says Castro.
"A former big leaguer against an out-of-shape Prime
Minister. You can go back and tell the commissioner
that you got a hit off Castro. Barry Goldwater will
kiss your fingertips for that." After Alvarado, acting
as umpire,* calls the batter out on a third strike
fastball, he whispers to his wife: "Actually, the pitch
was a little inside. But what the hell, it's only a
game."

U.S. Mailer
Indeed, if there is a thread that ties all of
Apple's fiction together, that is it. As Max Apple
portrays it, all of life is a game: one big act of
imagination irv the guise of "the real thing." Be it
politics; money, health foods, even the job of being a
writer in America, Apple begins with the assumption
that reality need not be stretched very far to arrive
at fiction. Not surprising, then, that one should find
a story called "Inside Norman Mailer", in which the
protagonist engages in a literary boxing match with

oh my god.
...

For a good time,
don't miss this one
There's a regular ragtime and blues bombshell going off tonight at
8:30 p.m. in Squire Hall's Fillmore Room, when the UUAB
Coffeehouse presents Dave Van Ronk and Woody Harris. And if you
feei like planting a detonation of your own, you can do so tomorrow
night in the Squire 1st. Floor Cafeteria, when the Coffeehouse sponsors
a free open mike, starting at 8:30 p.m.
Dave Van Ronk has been a fixture of the folk revival since its
beginnings in the New York City folk scenes of Washinton Square and
Greenwich Village. With John Hammond and Koerner, Ray, and
Glover, Van Ronk soon joined The front ranks of the young white
bluesmen, and he's never left them.
Well-rounded
Van Ronk, though, is much more than a white boy aping the
bluest He's become a magnificent interpreter of an impressive variety of
music, from Joni Mitchell to the maniacal Holy Modal Rounders. He
was one of the original fountainheads of the ragtime guitar movement:
his arrangement of the piano piece "St. Louis' Tickle" was long the
mark for the folk picker to aim for.
His voice is the kind of craggy growl you'd expect from someone
who looks more like a shaggy bison than a folksinger. It fits his more
raucous songs well; when, in Robert Shelton's words, "it breaks into
the most beautiful tones I’ve ever heard", it's just as well suited for his
quieter side.
Dave Van Ronk's image is that of a hell-raiser, but there's no
denying that he's a serious artist. Both sides are well represented on
Sunday Street his new Philo Records album, which was unanimously
hailed as his best work in years, and which prompted something of a
renaissance in his career.
Ragtime classics
Woody Harris is one of the guitarists-who's carrying on the ragtime
guitar tradition that Van Ronk helped to start. A New York native
with a strong classical background, Jarris is also among the musicians
trying to create a serious interest in American guitar; he's recently
recorded After-Dinner Mints a delightful album on fellow guitarist
Stefan Grossman's Kicking Mule label. His fqsion of classical and folk
influences makes for interesting listening; for guitar fans, he's an

education.
WBFO (88.7) will broadcast the concert live this evening, if you
can't make it; the way to experience performers like Van Ronk and
Harris, though, is in person. If you have the slightest interest in blues,
ragtime, guitar, or a plain good time, don't miss this one. 8:30 p.m!
tonight in Squire's Fillmore Room.

�RECORDS
The Miles Davis/Tadd Dameron Quintet, In Paris Festival International
de Jazz (Columbia)
How many times have you bought a record which turns out to be a
big disappointment, and a bigger waste of money? Maybe the
performer's voice changed, or the anticipated style of music wasn't
found. These are the chances to be taken when buying record sight
unheard.
When I buy a record at the spur of the moment, 1 consider two
things: the musicians and the cuts. If the artist has a decent reputation
(in my mind), and the tunes ring a bell. I'll grab the LP. Over the last
few years it has turned out to be a great system. One thing I've learned
is to read the liner notes of the album in question. The Charlie Parker
Records label offers an impotant warning to all prospective consumers;
"With an album such as this, there have to be reservations; recorded on
a home recorder, the sound has to be something less than high
fidelity." Thanks to the price, $1.99, and Lester Young, I threw away
my reservations.
There is no such clause on this Miles Davis/Tadd Dameron
recording. The album was taped almost thirty years (May 1949) at the
Paris International Festival on (for all I know) a home recorder. If
someone could take away the music it would sound an amplified bowl
of Rice Krispies, in simulated stereo.
Don't get me wrong, the mlisic is great. At the time of the festival
jazz was at a stylistic transition. Miles Davis and Tadd Dameron were
both enormous influences on the structure of the "new" jazz, bebop.
Dameron was one of the first arrangers to make use of bop. During the
late forties he was composing and arranging tunes for Billy Eckstine,
Dizzy Gillespie and Coleman Hawkins, to name a few. Miles was
experimenting with a nine piece ensemble (a project which became
commercially successful some ten years later), and jamming with the
likes of Charlie Parker, the Diz and Coleman Hawkins on 52nd street in
Manhattan.
Sharing the stand with Dameron and Davis was Kenny Clarke on
drums, Barney Spieler; bass, and James Moody playing tenor
saxophone (Moody gained fame through his flute in the sixties and
seventies!. Miles displays his distinct withdrawn phraseology which
influenced an infinite amount of young trumpeters. On "Wah Hoo",
Davis and Moody trade leads which typify each ones musical mode: A
racous, crisp tenor and the cool, quick horn with the "unorthodox"
solos. Other notable cuts include "All The Things You Are" and Bird's
"Ornithology".

This takes place underneath a barrage of snap, crackle and props,
and preriodic introductions in french. This would not be bad if the price
tag weren't the usual $7.98 list. At that price you could buy four
Charlie Parker Records and receive the same quality. The deciding
question is: Does Miles Davis and/or Columbia mean that much to
you?
—Peter Gordon

Joe Cocker's Greatest Hits (A&amp;M)
Rather than being cast from that all too common mold of other
greatesthits packages, Joe Cocker's Greatest Hits serves more as a
sampler of his seven previous albums. All the material on the album is
strong and scored well. In total, the songs comprise an album which
traces the different periods and moods of Cocker's career honestly and
comprehensively. Cocker has always been a vulnerable figure
consistently putting an unimaginable amount of passion and guts into a
song, leaving us with an imprint which (amazingly) not only redefines
the song, but gives us an embarrasingly intimate insight into the man.
Only Janis Joplin has been able to reveal as much about one's self
through other people's (pop) songs,
A natural dichotomy exists in his career which seperates his first
four albums from the latter three. The first four albums contain the
material when Cocker was at his height, both in the recording studio
and on stage. I remember his appearance in Woodstock in which he
performed "With a Little Help From My Friends" and "The Letter".
Cocker was amazingly strong and moving. Perhaps the admittedly
affected flailing of arms made the performance too tense and tedious
to watch, but the voice behind that contortioning body was real.
During this period Cocker was backed by two of the best backup
bands ever, Mad Dogs and Englishmen and The Grease Band, A list of
notable musicians from these bands would be too long to include. Most
influential were Leon Russell and Chris Stainton who wrote and
co-wrote many of Cocker's songs. This would include "Delta Lady",
"High Time We Went", and 'Woman To Woman", (which are on this
album). 'With A Little Help From My Friends", "Black Eyed Blues",
"Cry Me A fliver", "Darling Be Home Soon", "Feeling Alright", and
'The Letter" are the other songs from Cocker's early period which are
included on this album.
After continued success, Cocker went through a non productive
period which was marked by his seclusion and rumors of personal
problems. He re-emerged in 1974 with "I Can Stand A Little Rain".
Here, Cocker's vocals are a little less powerful but reveal the honesty
and humility of a seasoned and matured man. The songs from this era
which include "You Are So Beautiful", "The Jealous Kind", and "I
Think It's Gone To Rain Today", are musically and lyrically more
reflective and less reckless than the torchier songs of his past.
Cocker occasionally tours but unfortunately his performances are
often ruined by his compulsive drinking. I would guess that his loss of
popularity is directly due to his inability to promote his albums
through touring. Cocker is best on vinyl where his performances are
more controlled. For anyone who is unfamiliar with Cocker, this album
represents an excellent review of his career.

Ted Nugent first surfaced in 1967 as guitarist
for the Amboy Dukes, whose "Journey to the

tortured years. Their other big hit, "Baby Please

ending.

But what can you expect with titles like "Yank
Me Crank Me", "Stormtroopin"' and "Wang Dang
Sweet Poontang". Sure ain’t new wave. But no
doubt there's an audience for this stuff: midwestern
teens of the suburbs blowing bowls in finished
basement rooms will go for it ih a big way, no doubt.
It's a splendid package. No fewer than 19 color
shots of Ted barechested and grimacing, Ted
sweating, Ted jumping, Ted writhing. No pictures of
the band. These pictures will thrill anyone who has
never seen a Caucasian before.
Not much to be said for the band (Cliff Davies,
Derek St. Holmes and Rob Grange on 2nd guitar,
bass and drums, respectively!, aJifeless, clich-ridden
bunch who sound much reminiscent of Lou Reed's
Rock 'n' Roll Animal minus Dick Wagner. Nor is
there much for Ted's handling of the vocal chores
(and chores they are). His Robert Plant-inspired
sequels are no more fun than his "Are You Ready to
Get Down and Party" rap. The only thing missing is
a drum solo, conspicuous in its absence.
In short, buy this album immediately for the
highest price possible. You can't afford to be

out to be great? Stand up right now and leave to go
buy this fine product so conspicuous.

‘This guitar is guaranteed to blow the balls off a

few short demonstrations of one-note feedback that
excite the crowd to tears. Although his playing
leaves a lot to be desired., (originality-wise) it's the
best thing about the album. 'The Great White

Parapsychology and
Symposium: Sub-cultures in the Wasteland
the Occult, was presented Tuesday, February 21. Moderating the
discussion was Dr. Michael Farrell of the Sociology Department.
Professor Carole Liaros, a well known psychic. Dr. Clarence Dye of the
Division of Student Affairs, and Dr. Marvin Zimmerman of the
Philosophy Department, were the three panelists.
The goals of the symposium were to increase awareness of both
sides of the parapsychological phenomena, and to bring students and
professors together informally to leam more about each other.
Carol Liaros, a professor at Rosary Hill, discussed the practical
application of Extrasensory Perception (ESP). Currently working cm
the project, “Blind Awareness” she helps to teach the blind to “see.”
This is done by first teaching the sightless students a technique for
deep relaxation which aids them to use more of their perceptive ability.
Then they being to “see” photographs with the palms of their hands,
and are encouraged to feel if the photograph is of a male or female.
With continued practice, many of these students have been able to
“see” everything in the room; “see” in the sense that they are aware of
the energy fields of their surroundings.
Liaros said, “The current thrust of the scientific field of
Parapsychology is not so much ‘does it exist’ but ‘how do we apply
it’?” She pointed to the desire among people who attend her classes to
apply ESP to normal life.

Let’s face it; people don’t smile
much in this area whether out of
habit or frozen lips from the cold.
In the past the city was full of
different ethnic groups but these
groups all had a common ground;
the Catholic religion. But students
are largely non-Catholic and
temporary at best from the
viewpoint of their native-born
neighbors.
Occassionally, a bright light
shines through this gloom. Belinda
Luciano tells this story; “When
school started back in September,,
my daughter, Chrissy, met this
new friend, Rachel. All she said
for three whole weeks was Rachel
this and Rachel that. Rachel
walked her home from school
every day and my husband and I
figured she was just a little girl
who went to a school not far from
here. Ther| one day 1 asked
Chrissy to bring Rachel home
with her. Expecting a little girl, I
was surprised like hell when
Chrissy’s new friend turned out to
be an attractive Brooklyn girl who
lived with the students next door!
Since then I’ve gotten to know all

The New York Public Interest Group (NYPIRG) had a strategy
session on Wednesday and lai4 but its groundwork for the
upcoming $tate Legislative session. NYPIRG Director Donald Ross,Who met earlier in the day with representatives of Buffalo State
College and City officials, told NYPIRG officials here of the three
priority bills that could affect students.
Ross outlined a bill, sponsored by NYPIRG and the Student
Association of the State University (SASU) that would increase the
availability of absentee baloots, a problem that NYPIRG has dealt
with in the past. A second bill would attempt to force testing
organizations like the Educational Testing Service (ETS) to disclose
validity studies. The bill would also require that the services make
the exams public after a certain period of time so that students
could check the accuracy of their scores. Another provision would
restrict the services from giving out students’ scores unless

provides.
The Leggios stressed that it is
much cheaper to install a solar
heater, as well as a woodburning
stove, in a new house rather than
refitting it into an old home. Once

a solar system is installed, the
number of plates can be increased,
adding to its efficiency at a lower
cost than if they had been
instituted to begin with. The stove
and solar power can be hooked up

supplement each other entirely,
erasing the need for fossil fuels.
Paul stressed that solar plates can
be built into the house to appear

previously given permission.
The third bill sponsored NYPIRG would provide for easier
collection of Small Claims Court awards. Ross explained,
“Currently, you can only collect if the party sued uses the legal
name in which the business is incorporated. It doesn’t matter if the
decision was ruled in your favor.’’ He claimed students are greatly
victimized by this problem.
NYP1RG is planning a statewide conference in Albany
tomorrow.

saving the

cost of roofing materials.
The Leggios would like to see
the solar industry move to
Buffalo, because many jobs would
be created in our potentially
northern
profitable
market.
Currently many of the solar
heater parts are manufactured in
the north, shipped to the south
where the plates are constructed,
and then shipped north again to
be sold. The Leggios said that
Buffalo could produce solar plates
very competitively without the
added burden of the shipping
cost. As solar power’s exposure
grows, they stated, the industry
could be attracted here.

Basketball Bulls win
second game m a row

Playoff hopes alive

Bulls on three game streak
The streaking hockey Bulls kept their playoff
hopes alive last weekend by winning three straight
New York Collegiate Hockey Association (NYCHA)
games. Buffalo defeated Potsdam 6-5 in overtime on
Friday evening. The Bulls then recorded 7-1 and 8-1
victories over Brockport and Cortland, respectively.
The three-game winning streak, the club’s
longest on the season, lifted its record to 12-12
overall. In NYCHA games, the Bulls are 8-5.
Coming off a disappointing 5-1 loss at Elmira on
February 15, UB appeared to be somewhat sluggish
during the early stages of Friday’s game with
Potsdam. As a result, the Bears were able to jump
out in front 3-0.
Buffalo had four power play opportunities
within this timespan but failed to get on the
scoreboard. Then, winger Stu Campbell took a pass
from center Frank Anzalone and let go a long
slapshot that breezed past Potsdam goalie Jim Blaise
to cut the Bears margin to two.
Four minutes later, Buffalo scored on a power
play as Carl Koeppel beat a screened-out Blaise and
UB was down by only one. Soon after, Bear Jim
O’Connell beat Bull goalie Bill Kaminska to make it
a

4-2 game.

Ed in overtime
Bulls captain Chris Bonn poked in a short shot
at 19:40 of the second period and once again, the
Potsdam lead was cut to one.
Goals by Campbell and Anzalone sandwiched
around a goal by Potsdam’s Tom Herson resulted in
regulation play being dead-locked at five goals
apiece.

With 1:24 gone in overtime, Buffalo’s Fid
Patterson stole a clearing pass in the Potsdam zone.
The junior centerman then let go a quick, low shot
and the Bulls had their third overtime triumph of the
season.

“We thought it would be a cakewalk and had to
play catch-up hockey as a result,” noted Buffalo
coach Ed Wright. “We’ve never had such success in
overtime before. We’re just trying to turn this into a
winning

season.”

Buffalo continued its quest for a successful
season Saturday night at Brockport shooting down
the Eagles 7-1.
Brockport took a 1-0 lead after the first period

on a goal by Ken Levine. But then the Bulls began

their charge.

Rightwinger Brien Grow scored the Bulls’ first
goals. Don Osborn, Ed Patterson, Bonn,
Koeppel and Rich MacLean also tallied for Buffalo,
two

Tom Wilde assisted on three goals and Patterson on
two.

Hot netminder
Kaminska came up with some big stops during
the second period as the Golden Eagles tested him
on 21 occasions. The sophomoie goaltender was
especially tough halfway through the period.
Brockport sent five shots on goal within two minutes
and the score 2-1 Kaminska stopped them all. “I felt
extremely sharp and also was a little lucky,” said
Kaminska afterwards “My family was also at the
game and that gave me some incentive to play

better.”
Buffalo

came back home to the Tonawanda
Sports Center on Monday to face Cortland State.
The high-flying Bulls had little trouble as they slew
the Red Dragrons 8-1
Buffalo took a 5-0 first period lead as they
outshot their opponents 22-4, and picked up three
goals in 58 seconds. Bonn, Anzalone, Grow and
freshman Jim Galanti all had first period goals.
Patterson finished the Bulls’ scoring with a
'‘natural’’ hat-trick
three consecutive goals. It was
the centerman’s second hat trick of the season and

"This is
probably
the
most
consistent
three-game-stretch we’ve played all year,” stated
Wright “We moved the puck very well in the first
period and also got some breaks around the net.”
Both the coach and his players feel that they
have a shot at making the playoffs. The Fastern
Collegiate Hockey Association (FCHA) playoff
committee will meet this weekend to choose the
eight teams that will make the playoffs from the
western portion of the FCHA. Selection is based on
the strength of teams played, won-lo*t record, and so
fort.
The

Bulls end the regular season at home
tomorrow. Buffalo will play Union College at the
Tonawanda Sports Center, beginning at 7:30 p.m.

Guard Rodney McDaniel scored on a driving layup with two
minutes remaining to give the basketball Bulls their second consecutive
win, defeating LeMoyne College 70-67, Wednesday in Clark Hall. Their
record is now 5-17.
Buffalo ran up a 1 2 point lead midway through the first period,
only to relinquish it later in the game. But a late second half rally gave
UB the victory. “For a while we played lousy defense and looked away
from the ball,” said Buffalo captain Sam Pellom. “But we came back to
win, and that’s all that counts.”
Buffalo’s Larry Jones led all scorers with ten at the half and a total
of twenty for the game, but was benched along with starting guard Ed
Johnson in the second half. “With Jones and Johnson in foul trouble,
they have a tendency to be too cautious so I had to bench both,”
explained Bulls coach Leo Richardson,
The Dolphins, who portrayed a patient offense, were led by their

6-4 center Jene Grey, who led all scorers with 23 points and a game
high 1 2 rebounds. “Grey and the rest of the LeMoyne squad played
very well,” commented Richardson.
Buffalo picked up their fourth win of the year Saturday night,
downing Albany. It was the Bulls’ finest offensive performance of the
year and the first time in two years that they topped the 100 point
mark. Pellom was high for Buffalo with 29 points and 12 rebounds,
and got plenty of help from Johnson and Jones, who each had more
than twenty points.
The game was close throughout most of the first half, but midway
through the second half, Buffalo pulled away. Richardson was pleased
with most phases of the Bulls’ game.
Last Wednesday, the basketball Bulls had a taste of Orange Crush,
as nationally ranked Syracuse defeated UB 113-66 in Syracuse.
Syracuse was simply awesome, as they ran up a 20-8 lead behind
the hot shooting of Dale Shackleford and the offensive rebounding of
6-1 1 center Roosevelt Bouie, cousin of UB’s Nate Bouie.
Behind the steady shooting of Pellom, Buffalo hit four consecutive
buckets and trailed 24-22 with 8:51 remaining. Syracuse then ran off a
string of five consecutive baskets, to take a 13 point lead at the half
43-30.
Richardson was so incensed with the officiating, he was assessed a
technical foul ort the way back to the locker room. “The officiating

The wrestling Bulls easily captured their fourth consecutive New
York State Conference Championship Friday and Saturday at RIT. The
UB squad placed sixth or better in every weight class, with freshman
Mike Jacoutot (119), fourth nationally ranked co-captain Kirk
Anderson (151), Dave Mitchell (178) all finishing first; Paul Curka
second at heavyweight; and Ed Tyrrell (135), co-captain Bruce Hadsell
(168), and Jeff Wheeler (191) third. Buffalo’s point total of 135.75
was twenty higher than second place St. Lawrence’s, and five points
higher than their score last year.
Eighteen schools entered the competition including the top ranked
Division III team, Brockport State, which finished sixth at the
tournament.

The Bulls are now looking ahead to the Division III national
championships; as many as nine squad members could qualify after
tonight’s match against Binghamton (fourth in the state
championships) at 8 p.m. and tomorrow’s match against Division I
Clarion at 2:30 p.m. Both matches will be at Clark Hall. The
rescheduled Binghamton match will provide for personal reassessment
of individual abilities as the two teams go head to head. The Bulls
expect to come out the victor, with the 177 pound rematch between
the finalists of the State Championships being the pivotal match.
The Bulls’ match against Clarion will terminate Buffalo’s season, as
they make a final stab for Eastern Regional recognition. Buffalo coach
Ed Michael says UB’s squad parallels Clarion’s in ability. “They
(Clarion] are strong all the way through,” stated Michael, but he added
that the Bulls’ strength is no longer limited to just the heavier weights.
“We’re also strong all the way through,” he said.
Michael says his squad epitomizes the quality of athletes that he
has coached and considers the team severely underrated. Individually,
the Bulls upper weights (“Death Row”) alll have established wins or
draws in earlier bouts with this year’s Pennsylvania State Conference
Champions, most of whom are from Division 1 schools with ranking in
the Eastern League. The UB squad has met with and defeated
Brockport State in a dual meet and in the State tournament. The bulls
have also met and defeated Division 1 Bloomsburg and Pittsburgh,
contenders for the top national twenty ranking.
Buffalo is not in the Eastern League ranking nor is the team among
the contenders for the overall national top twenty. The Bulls are
ranked third in Division III, under Brockport and Humboldt College.
The Division III National Championships are in two weeks and Michael
is hoping that his squad will prove the experts wrong. “They (the
squad) all have the heart and perseverance to be champions,” claimed
Michael.

�Basketball Royals
take one lose one

iust

.Sparked by the outstanding play of forward-center Paula Hills and
reserve guard Beth Krantz, the Basketball Royals scored an impressive
68-59 comeback win over Brockport Tuesday.
Co-captain Hills pulled down 20 rebounds, picked up five steals
and led all scorers with 16 points. Hills has had to carry the bulk of the
rebounding load with center Janet Lilley and forward Pam Lerminiaux
ineligible because of academic problems.
Krantz, who at 5-1 is the shortest player on the squad, hit several
key buckets on her way to a season high ten points. Her precision
passing and fine free throw shooting 7 bolstered the Buffalo attack.
“SMe’s got a lot of confidence and she showed it today,” noted Buffalo
coach Liz Cousins.
■ The Royals fell behind 16-4 as Brockport center Nancy
Chynoweth reeled of four straight baskets. But the UB defense
toughened, and Chynoweth scored only three more points in the game.
“We didn’t get the ball to her,” moaned Brockport coach Sandee Hill.
'

Staying alive
UB held the Golden Eagles scoreless for almost six minutes as they
chipped aWay at the lead. The Royals ran off a 19-6 burst to take the
lead briefly, but then lapsed into some sloppy play and they trailed
30-27 at the half.
Brockport scored three quick buckets to open the second half but
the Royals stayed close, finally tying it at 43 all on Hills’ free throw
with 9:52 left. The Royals built up a five point lead but Brockport
bounced back behind forward Barb Westermeir, whose layup with 3:50
remaining knotted the score at 56.
UB went on top for good a few moments later, when Krantz took
the ball all the way down court for a layup. Senior co-captain Regina
Frazier, who’ll play her last game for UB Tuesday night, poured in five
points in the closing minutes to seal the victory.
The least used of the Royals, freshman Soyka Dobush, saw her
first real action of the year against Brockport. Dobush looked nervous
at times, particularly handling the ball, but her 5-10 frame was a
welcome sight in the middle of the Buffalo defense.
It was a big win for the Royals who were outmanned more than
two-to-one by the Brockport squad. Buffalo had only seven players
after forward Dottie Holtz was sidelined early with an ankle injury.
Buffalo also has lost five players since the beginning of the season due
to academic 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).

Major plea for construction

An Open Letter To The Student Body:
' As
you may have read recently, the
construction situation at the Amherst Campus
has taken a turn for the. .worse. I am now
appealing to each and every one of you to help in
our efforts to convince Albany of our desperate
need to have the many essential buildings built at
Amherst, makhq it functional and re-establishing
the core campus we so desperately need to
provide the quality education a university of this
size and stature should provide.
I am sure you are well aware that the student
body cannot endure the hardships of a split
campus indefinitely. Progress in construction
must be made or our education will surely suffer.
As the mechanical requirements of attending this
University increase, the academic benefits will
decrease.
You have an opportunity now to make the
difference. Despite what has recently been said
about the keys to student power, the most
effective demonstration of student power, and
one that can not be ignored, is that of mass
support and participation of the student body.
Reread the front page story in The Spectrum of
2/6/78 on construction, or use the sample letters

provided, add or delete information as you
please, but I urge you to take a few minutes and
write a letter to one of the people I have listed.
Write to them and to as many legislators as you
can. If it is possible, drop a copy of your letter to
me in campus mail so I can have an idea of how
many letters have been sent.
Let’s deluge them with thousands of letters!
Your efforts will help make this a University you
can be proud of.

SA elections: student
response is growing
The number of petitions filed for the upcoming Student
Association (SA) elections has increased dramatically since February 3,
according to SA President Dennis Delia. Although there was little
student interest at the start of the drive, an adequate number of
students have presently filed petitions.
Delia said, “If things keep going the way they have it will
definitely be an interesting election. There are a lot of people running
for a few offices.”
He added that this election will have the largest number of
inexperienced students running for office of any past campaign. He
added that the number of petitions filed was not hindered by SA’s
location in Talbert Hall on the Amherst Campus.
As a result of complaints last year by members of the Graduate
Student Association (GSA), a separate election will be held for College
Council positions. The positions are open to all students; however,
GSA officials felt that an undue advantage was given to undergraduate
students in the past by having the SA and College Council elections
together.
“This is a valid complaint,” said Delia. “A person running for the
College Council can run on an SA ticket. This gives an unfair advantage
to undergraduates who typically have a lot of motivation.”
Delia felt that a different group should run the Council every year.
An equal opportunity should be given to all student groups. The
election will therefore be held about a month after SA elections, he
said.

A mandatory candidate meeting is being held today in Talbert
Hall. This is the last day that petitions may be filed.

Many feel there is great peril in
the assumption that Western
habits can be transferred to Third
World societies, particularly in a
matter as delicate as the feeding
of infants. Baby formula products
do not give the appearance of
being innocuous there as they do
in more affluent countries. On the
contrary, most nutritionists agree
that they have created a
phenomenon
tabbed by Dr.
Derrick Jelliffe, former head of
the Caribbean Food and Nutrition
Institute, as “commerciogenic
malnutrition.”
The cost of powdered baby

food. A 1969 study by the
National Food and Nutrition
Survey of Barbados revealed that
82 percent of bottle-feeding
mothers stretched a four-day
supply of formula to last from
five days to three weeks. Thus,
the formula, believed to be a bit
less nutritious than mother’s milk
to begin with, provides that much
less for the baby,

�Grade reports are
under investigation
by Harvey Shapiro
Contributing Editor

Some instructors still have not turned in grade reports for the Fall
semester, according to Professor of Psychology Edward Hovorka, who
is investigating the matter for the Faculty Senate Executive
Committee.
Although exact figures were not available, Hovorka estimated that
grade reports for 31 classes still had not been submitted to Admissions
&amp; Records (A&amp;R). “After a quick overview of the situation it appears
that some 400-500 students are affected,” he said.
Hovorka added that most of the students affected were registered
in graduate school courses. “Most graduate courses are small classes
with projects due. Perhaps that’s part of the problem,” he commented.
The Faculty Senate investigation of the matter was spurred by a
letter addressed to the Senate by John Peradatto, professor of Classics.
Pergdatto said it was “outrageous” that students were not appraised of
their grades, claiming faculty irresponsibility is the major problem. “In
most cases it’s sheer negligence by the faculty that grades are not
handed in on time,” he said. Peradatto added that an attempt to get a
“minimum standard of faculty responsibility” was thwarted because
the “faculty would not go along with the proposal.”

of snow covered, swampy land, it reflects what little

sunshine might fall on Buffalo. Those hardy souls
who habitually ride Blue Bird buses between
Amherst and Main Street see it on a daily basis. It is
called the Chilled Water Plant.
Chilled water you ask? Isn’t it cold enough
outside?
The vast majority of Buffalo residents have no
knowledge of the facility’s function, nor can they
grasp its concept.
A mysterious air pervades the ground. Perhaps
the plant is a secret government research project, or

a cooling system for a hot nuclear reactor. But the
plain truth is, the chilled water plant turns out to be
a routine, almost trite, functional device which cools
water for the academic spine of the Amherst
Campus.
The cooled water is used for the purpose of air
conditioning and cooling those machines at the spine
that might need cooling. ‘Tis only this and nothing

Students at this University may in the future be forced to pay
bills by the end of the first week of classes.
An ad hoc committee with Vice President for Finance and
Management Edward Doty as Chairman was formed last week by
University President Robert Ketter to study student tuition payment
practices here. The Committee will make recommendations to retain or
change the current system*
Presently, students here are not required to meet their tuition
demands until the registration date of the following semester.
Approximately 17,000 students here fulfill their tuition bills with
third party payments such as the Tuition Assistance Program (TAP)
and the Basic Educational Opportunity Grant (BEOG). These awards
often arrive from Albany many months behind schedule, certainly too
late to fully pay a tuition bill by the first week of the semester.
Noting this discrepancy, Doty commented, “Too many exceptions
would have to be made to have a cash on the barrelhead system of
payment. I don’t know how they can do it without really botching up
the works.”
In a recent Task Force Report on Registration, it was concluded
that “student tuition payment policies, and the resulting Bursar’s
Checkstop (for failure to pay on time), are an impediment to a smooth
and effective registration system.” The system was criticized in
independent audits done by the State. A policy of “cash on the
barrelhead” was called for in the Report. Ketter stated, “While I feel
that there may be certain advantages to proceeding in this direction, I
also believe such a radical shift from past practices should be studied in
greater detail.”

Solutions for the grade reporting delinquency are also being
examined by Hovorka. As of yet no recommendations have been made,
although Chairman of the Faculty Senate, Jonathan Reichert, said in
the February 8 edition of The Spectrum that publishing a list of
delinquent professors “was a start.” However, no such list has yet beeh
made public.
Reichert said that the list has not been released because he was still
in the process of weeding out those professors who had legitimate
reasons for handing in grades late. Perdatto said he would like to see a
list published as long as “there were no clerical errors on it.”
Peradatto added that he doesn’t see how there is a solution. Merit
money, which is given to faculty for outstanding work, exists in too

Second group late
Hovorka observed that there are two classes of professors who arc
guilty of reporting grades late. “Most of them,” he said, “are faculty
who did not hand in grades until they returned from the Christmas
break.” Though this year’s deadline for handing in grades was
December 28, the majority of the late grades were reported on January
11, just before the start of the Spring semester.
Hovorka added that the second group of professors who were
delinquent in reporting grades were those who had yet to report last
semester’s grades to A&amp;R.
The Faculty Senate is trying to determine why professors are
delinquent in reporting grades. “We are conducting a review of all
professors who handed in late grades,” Hovorka said. “I suspect that
those who handed in grades on January 11 will say they didn’t feel any
need to hand in the grades because the new semester had not yet
begun. As for those who have not yet reported grades, I don’t know

�SA Senate attendance Special Major: combining
is creating problems resources and individuality
Since the beginning of the current school year an average of 34
percent of Student Association (SA) Senators have been absent from
any given SA meeting. The absentee rate ranges from a high of 44
percent for an October 13 meeting to a low of 18 percent on December
1. But SA President Dennis Delia sees no need for alarm. 'There are
enough conscientious and reliable Senators that do come to meetings
that Senate business goes on. Senators who don’t come wouldn’t do
anything anyway,” said Delia.

SA Senator Daniel Greenstein believes that the “high rate of
absenteeism is because SA meetings have become just a “mbberstamp.”
Said Greenstein, “The Senate has lost its power, it doesn’t seem to do
anything.”
The high rate of absent Senators has also created another problem:
a lack of proposals put before an SA meeting. This lack of proposals is
a big problem, said acting Executive Vice President Jeff Lessoff
Despite the large percentage of absent Senators, the Student

Senate does have an attendance code, and “It is being enforced!” said
Delia. As proof, Delia cites two Senators who have been removed this
year. But Delia also admits that perhaps “self-policing” policies should
be more stringent.
Delia feels that a 100 percent attendance goal is an unreasonable
one and says that the problem occurs everywhere from the Buffalo
Common Council to the Congress of the United States. Senator
Greenstein sees SA as winning the battle of absenteeism when Senators
begin to feel “responsible to the Senate.”

Quality control agent
After a student decides upon a major he must
find two faculty sponsors who have an interest in the
field. Working closely with the academic advisor, the
student has to formulate a proposal discussing his
plans and goals which is then submitted to an
advisory committee functioning within DUE.
Rizko referred to the committee as “a quality
control agent which evaluates the academic
credibility of the proposal.” He added, “Actually it
corresponds to a departmental review committee. It
is composed of two DUE advisors and faculty
representatives from major units such as Arts and
Letters, Science and Technology, Social Sciences,
and Health Related Professions.”
The Committee is not the final step, however.
This board recommends approval of the special
major to the Dean, who then approves or denies the
proposed program for which the University
eventually grants the degree.

this large and in possession of so many resources
should be given the opportunity to determine their
own educations.” He sdded that the program is now
very popular in universities nationwide, but this
University pioneered the development and served as
a model.
Since the program began here, there have been
520 special majors; although, recently since the
creation of an Interdisciplinary Social Sciences
Program the requests have decreased. Apparently
after repeated submission of certain majors,
programs (Urban Studies for example) became
involved and helped to structure ideas. “The Special
Majors spurred a response by programs so that more
guidance was offered to the students,” said Rizko,
citing the Center for Media Studies which is not yet
in itself degree-granting, but is very active in using
special majors as a vehicle.
Healths programs popular
Special Major trends have changed since the
inception of the program in 1968. In the 1960’s,
General Studies areas such as Childhood or Urban
Education were pursued. New, however. Health
Professional Programs are popular. Included in this
category are Physician Assistance and Family
Planning Education. Rizko expressed some concern
that students with undergraduate degrees in Health
Professional Programs were ill-prepared for a career
since they lacked professional training. “The
prevalent feeling was that the University didn’t have
resources to develop the standard clinical training
programs,” he commented.
The Special Majors Program is viewed with high
regard by the people involved in it. One fourth year
student with a special major in French and
Journalism called it an “innovative program’’ which
allows a student to pursue his interests outside of
traditional academic structures. A third year
journalism major described it as “a very good idea,”
adding that there is no University program for his
field. He stated however, “I think'that higher
positions in student activities
Student Association
or the newspaper for example
should be worth a
year of school in themselves other than through
arrangement made for a special major.”
A senior majoring in Political Science stated, “1
was going to propose a special major in journalism,
but when I asked my advisor If it was worth
anything, she said *not really’.” A survey, however,
taken among students who had graduated with
special majors showed excellent results. According to
Rizko, “It was the common response that graduate
schools or employers took great interest in the
student’s responsibility for establishing his own
major.” He added that generally, the specific goals
the students had when they proposed their special
majors were achieved. Rizko noted that field work
and experience for the intended major benefited the
graduate, and explained that the structure of the
program itself promoted this. “The special majors
program is a highlight and a credit to academics,” he
concluded.

TONIGHT

•

University offers a “Special Majors”
in which a student with interests beyondthe normal academic confines can develop and
structure for himself a major not offered in the
undergraduate course of study.
According to the Chairman of the Special
Majors Advisory Committee, DUE advisor John
Rizko, an existing major offered by the University
cannot be duplicated. He said, “A student can either
combine various already existing resources for his
special major, or form an original program through
independent studies or supervised clinical work.”
Although in recent years journalism and media
students have been among the most popular majors
of this program, other more unique ones have been
pursued. Rizko said the areas range from study in
Prostoglandin Research involving independent rather
than course work, to Comparative Religion, utilizing
available University resources. According to Rizko
generally three categories of students seek a special
major: those gearing themselves for Graduate
School, those with degrees from a two-year program,
or those who seek a degree in a field not offered by
the school.

By a vote of the Faculty Senate, the Special
Majors program began at this University on
December 5, 1968. According to Rizko, “In the late

the popular consensus that students at a university

I would like to have an opportunity to publicly
air my complaint as to the policies and procedures of
University Police and parking at Ellicott. After a
recent series of snowy days, the University finally
decided, on Wednesday, Feb. 8, to plow the parking
lots surrounding Ellicott. Students such as I were
reminded by posted notices and our R.A.’s to move
our cars from the usual overnight parking lots to the
already plowed, usually restricted (from overnight
parking) lots. On plowing nights, this is the normal,
legal procedure. Returning to campus in the early
morning hours of Feb. 9,1 decided to park in the lot

Senator George McGovern: Mr. Sprawl, the Amherst
Campus is taking a lot of heat, uh, for being a cold,
windswept place In the winter. Did you intentionally
design it that way?
Sprawl; Well, my feeling was this. In order to save
energy, students could wear roller skates to school,
tie, bedsheets to their wrists, and the winds would
blow them to class. The long stretches between
buildings are there for a purpose, you know. They're
studentrun-ways.
McGovern: But what about the complaints of rooms
being freezing particularly the overhanging rooms in

EUicott.

Sprawl: Now you're confused. Senator. The
overhanging rooms were buflt that way so that
distressed students could commit suicide without
disturbing occupants of the floors below them. I
hadn't counted on the rooms being, so cold, but it
turned out alright because anyone who is afraid of
jumping can curl up in their room and quietly freeze
to death.
Senator Ted Kennedy: Mr. Sprawl, in view of your
concern for energy, why did you put over 90 doors
in the design of EUicott. That's a tremendous yearly
heat loss.
Sprawl: Senator Kennedy, you must look at the
facts. There are over 4,000 people living in Eilicott
and 90 doors. That’s about 444 people per door. The
doors jfre three feet wide and seven feet high, for a
total of 21 square feet of door space per door.
Therefore, each person must squeeze every day
through approximately 6.8 square inches of door
space. Now, f think that pretty damn efficient,

Unfortunately, I forgot that I had parked in the
restricted lot, and when I returned to my car on Feb.
14, I found not one but three valentines from
University Police in the form of $10 parking
violation tickets on my car. Subsequent calls of
protestation to University Police and Amherst Town
Court as to the severity of my fine were to no avail. I
was even told by an Amherst Court Clerk that I was
lucky my car wasn’t towed away. Thanks! Since
there was only a neglible amount of snowfall during
my violation period (no plowing of lots required)
and I posed no real traffic hazard, I believe that a
$30 fine is excessive and for the most part
unnecessary. And they want guns do they

of this, one need look no further than the parking
problem on the Main Street Campus, particularly
Sherman Lot. Every morning approximately one
third of this lot is filled with cars belonging to
Veterans Hospital employees! According to Lee
Griffin this lot is carefully patrolled and non-student
cars are ticketed and/or towed away. I have yet to
see this happen! And if such an attempt were made,
how can anyone distinguish between student and
non-student cars if they all have student parking

Heavy-handed 'Shadow Box'not prize-worthy j
by Tom Dooney
Spectrum Arts Staff

For a good many years commercial theaters across the
have found importing British plays (such as
Equus, The National Health and Absurd Person Singular)
for production in the United States to lie very profitable.
So profitable, in fact, that very little stage space was
available for new American plays. Certainly an unhappy
situation for any American playwright but particularly
disasterous for the up-and-coming dramatist. Tennessee
Williams had quite a bit of trouble recently getting several
of his new plays produced because audiences and
producers seemed to be more fond of Britons Anthony
and Peter Schaffer, Alan Ayckbourn, Peter Nichols and
Tom Stoppard. If such a stalwart of American theater as
Williams is having a hard time of it, then things are damned
near impossible for the young author who has not yet had
a box office hit, that golden key that makes one's
theatrical future just a bit more secure.
Happily, though, the new American playwright is
making a comeback, because American theater is enjoying
somewhat of a boom period. People are once again buying
tickets to pldys, and the playwright's name, if not the
writing, is the big attraction. John Guare, Lanford Wilson,
Maria Irene Fornes and Willian Hauptman all survived the
bleak early seventies and are presently being joined by
writers like David Mamet, Albert Innaurato and
Christopher Durang. Scores of new dramatists are finally
receiving the support and the audiences they deserve. With
people like them writing, and writing well, one would
assume that awards would be handed to plays of
exceptional merit. Apparently, the Pulitzer Prize
Committee was so stunned by the glorious plays of the
1977 New York season that in a moment of dizziness they
chose one of the most mediocre scripts of the year,
Michael Cristofer's The Shadow Box.
country

Good morals, good taste
Which is probably giving the Awards committee the
benefit of the doubt. The guidelines for awards
presentations set up by journalist Joseph Pulitzer in the
early twentieth century are so silly that only the blandest
of dramas could win. Pulitzer's rules read like something
out of the Horatio Alger stories. "Annually, for the
American play, performed in New York, which shall best
represent the educational value and power of the stage in
raising the standard of general good morals, good taste and
good manners." Good god. Isn't it hard enough to decide
on a "best" play without having to be restricted by one
man's puritanical and patriotic whimsy? Plays like The
Children's Hour and Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? were
passed over for awards because they struck very raw nerves
of the public and the judging committee. The rules for best
novel are slightly more ludicrous. Novels must "represent
the whole atmosphere of American life, and the highest
standard of American manners and manhood." Surprising
that books like Alice Adams, Gone With The Wind and To
Kill A Mockingbird won Pulitzers despite having female
progaonists. In fact, it is pretty damn surprising that
anything less than The Boy Scout Fieldbook has ever won
a Pulitzer Prize. Thanks to the effort* of one Hungarian
immigrant, the idea of awarding merit to works of art
(rather than public service announcements) has gone down
the tubes.
Crocodile tears
The Shadow Box, currently at the Studio Arena
Theater, is about three terminal cancer patients at a large
hospital, and how these three (a blue-collar worker from
Newark, a jet set pseuo-lntellectual and a Wisconsin
farmwife) and their loved ones face death. Yes, it is
educational. Just as educational as an article Readers’
Digest might publish (“I Am Joe's Imminent Demise").
Yes, it is in good taste and it is rather polite. The lines are
genteel in that they don't step on anyone's moral toes and
they do elicit a few well-mannered chuckles during the
course of the evening. But on the whole, the play is pretty
light stuff.
Michael Christofer is trying to break through some of
America's social boundaries. "Even now," he is quoted in
the program notes of The Shadow Box, "after the ethical
and sexual revolution of the 60s, death may be the last
thing left in the closet." Christofer handles neither sex nor
death welt in this play. We never understand how anyone
comes to terms with dying. Perhaps no one truly does or
truly can explain how one might, but the bulk of the
characters end up so well adjusted by the end of the play
(with some stagey crocodile tears as their only display of
angst) that The Shadow Box falls flat on its intentions.
The sexual relationship between the intellectual and his
male lover is so poorly portrayed by the writer that it

Gerald Richards and stage family come to terms with death
Neither sex nor death are handled well
appears gratuitous. Perhaps they are

in the play to show us
that even sodomites can die and go to heaven. It is odd,
however, that while the hetero couples of the play merrily
peck and feel at each other, all Brian and Mark are allowed
is a pale fraternal embrace.
The Shadow Box is a very poorly crafted play.
Christofer's only literary influence seems to have been Dr.
Elizabeth Kubler-Ross' On Death and Dying. In her
brilliant book, Kubler-Ross presented an evaluation of how
we Americans face mortality and suggested a re-order of
our priorities. Michael Chistofer appears to have lifted a
couple of case studies from the aforementioned
documentary, dramatized them, and given them a clumsy
push toward the stage. Characters wax poetic in their
dialogue over taking each breath as if it were the last and
saying "I love you" too late. Hokey philosophy is
sometimes as thick as Iowa com.
It seems, too, that the author did not care to write
dialogue and situations where a character could

realistically express his or her feelings, so he added some
drawn out conversation/monologues with an unseen,
mellow voiced speaker. .Who is this understanding chap
that they pour their hearts out to? A doctor, a
psychologist.
God? Whoever he is, he is kind and good
and runs the hospital with a velvet gloved iron hand. And
he is totally unbelievable.
The Studio Arena's production could not possibly
improve on this weak script. As a matter of fact, there are
times when the play is even worse for having come to
Buffalo. Warren Enters' direction is often unsteady, but
this is largely due to the feeble writing. Enters did well by
the Studio when he directed an excellent Death Of A
Salesman last season despite that play's weak points. Too
bad for us all that he was not as successful this time round.
Also, the juvenile actor of the production has one of tho
.

.

most grating Buffalo accents and least interesting stage
prescences to be found

in any local theater.
Two performances do stand out for their depth and
skill. Joan Croydon and Suzanna Costallos play a mother
and her eldest daughter whose relationship is based on the
mutually accepted lie of a younger daughter. This
daughter, in fact, died some years ago. Agnes has been
making up letters from her dead sister describing a blissful
life traveling through South America. In the final scene of
the play, Agnes is faced with the possibility of either
telling her moribund mother a dreadful truth or continuing
the pretense so that a bit of happiness might exist in both
their lives.
Skilled actress
This is the only honest moment of the play and both
actresses shine here. Joan Croydon rises above the author's
stereotyped view of sweet-faced old ladies with a penchant
for dirty words. However, the true glory of this duo is
Suzanne Costallos as Agnes, the woman who devoted her
entire life to serving her bitter mother. She brings levels of
characterization to the play that the playwright somehow
left out. Costallos is a subtle and skilled actress. In her
scene with the disembodied voice, Costallos. too timid to
take control of any situation, sits on one half of a chair
and folds her hands so demurely that this one instant
becomes a biography of the character. Credit is deserved
by Gerald Richards and Rachel Taylor for making due
with two very flimsy roles.
The Shadow Box, then, is a message play. Heavy
handed, obvious messages ("Life is funny, yet sad. So is
death. We grow in death.") and subtle, maybe
unimportant, ones ("Pulitzer prizes are stupid") abound.
Not a very good play, not a bad production, and some
breathtaking acting by Suzanne Costallos and a few
friends.

Buffalo Philharmonic

deep enough to draw blood

by Steve Bartz
Spectrum Music Writer

Sidney
The Buffalo Philharmonic Orchestra, in a concert in Clark Gym
last Thursday evening, transcended poor acoustics and the athletic
surroundings to bring off a dazzling performance. A full house listened
and enjoyed as conductor Michael Tilson Thomas took the
Philharmonic through Tschaikovsky's Overture to the Storm (Opus
76), Bartok's Suite from the Miraculous Mandarin, and Beethoven's
famous Seventh Symphony.
The orchestra members, dressed in dark suits and ties, contrasted
the smelly rubber floor mat and the
violently with their surroundings
to
sweaty gym, more used
tip-offs than tympanis.
Tschaikovsky's Overture to the Storm opened the concert with a
crash of brass and percussion and went on to enthrall and entrance the
audience. It was during the opening minutes of the piece that Clark
Hall's poor acoustics first became apparent
the softer volumes
became lost in the acoustic maze, the violins took on something of a
dry, raspy, held-back tone, and the brass tended to drown out the
other instruments. But Thomas still managed to do Tschaikovsky
justice. The orchestra, responding to his every gesture, gave the work a
honeycomb structure
the sweet strings hemmed in, held in place by
walls of percussion.
The audience watched and waited, hand to chin, for the breaking
of the storm. Thomas, meanwhile, made much of the contrast of
woodwinds, strings, and brasses.
The work rose in pitch and intensity, ending with a crashing finale.
Thomas, pleased with the effort and skill the Philharmonic devoted to
the overture, accepted the audience's cheering and clapping for the
members of the orchestra.

Bartok's background
Thomas, officially the conductor and music director for the
Philharmonic, turned narrator for the next work, Bela Bartok's Suite
from the Miraculous Mandarin Thomas, his cowlick swaying from side
to side, showed the wit and gregariousness which has made him as
much of a local hero as Gil Perrault or Randi Smith as he described to
the audience the
background of Bartok's piece. He first asked if everyone had programs,
and when the crowd yelled back "No", he took the air of an old
. you all do know what we're
professor on the first day of classes:
playing, don't you?"
Bartok's suite, as Thomas narrated, it, is about three thugs who
kidnap an innocent girl and force her to cooperate with their evil plot.
She is to solicit men to follow her to a hotel room where the thugs will
jump the victim and take his money. The theme was considered a bit
racy in Bartok's time
Thomas tells us that "there were several juicy
details considered a bit unsavory at the time so I'm going to tell you
all about them."
The work started with a musical portrait of Bartok's setting,
describing vividly the evil city with active violent sounds. The girl's
attempts to entice passersby on the street were superbly represented by
Jim Pyna and his sensuous clarinet. And each of the victims is sketched
out in music
the lecherous old man, masterfully represented by a
touch of percussion, the naive college student, and finally the hero of
the story, who, Thomas tells us, "comes charging in with an incredibly
barbaric burst of trombones, stands there all six foot eight of him
with bulging muscles and eyes of fire, and says, 'Now waaaiit a
minutel'
.

.

J. Furies' latest film. The Boys In

Company C, milks the now familiar anti-Vietnam
War sentiments to driest of bones, but does so in
such an artless manner that it is impossible to take it
seriously. In fact, the only thing this clumsy affair
proves is that an anti-war film can be just as vapid as
a piece of Military propaganda.
The film charts the course of a single platoon of
Marines from its genesis in the vulgar rituals of boot
camp on to its near-decimation upon a Da Nang
soccerfield, of all places. In between, the viewer is
subjected to a muddled series of contrived situations,
unconvincing histrionics, and enough violence to
make a Clint Eastwood fan nauseous. Now and then
the mayhem does give way to a genuinely amusing
scene, but for the most part, Furie seems content to
seek refuge in the rigid formulas which are the staple
of most hard-core action films.

Reptilian bad guys
This means, of course, that whenever any
member of the cast attempts to graft some skin and
bones onto the stick figure with which he has been
provided in the script, he is immediately cut short by
a burst of machine gun fire or an overbearing
commanding officer. All of which is a real shame. A
more sensitive, less exploitative director might have
cut back on the mindlessness a bit in order to give us
a set of living, breathing human beings with which to
identify. Instead, Furie confronts us with a group of
shallow, insulting types: the Street Wise Black (Stan
Shaw), the libidinous Italian (Michael Lembeck), the
Sugar Sweet Hippie (Craig Wasson); they're all there,
along with a whole slew of absolutely reptiliam bad
guys and hung-up wasps.
We scarcely feel the despair and anguish of these
figures as they plod wearily from one bullet-ridden
ambush to the next. From beginning to end, they
remain true unknown soldiers. And so, ironically
enough, their brutal deaths effect us in much the

same way that the 7 o'clock news coverage of the
"real thing" affected us so long ago. After a while, a
highly abstract, unbelievable quality creeps into the
whole affair.

A Marine platoon in Quan Loi, South Vietnam
True Unknown soldiers
This is not to say that Furie has shied away
from the heart of the beast. Indeed, much of the
problem with this film stems from the fact that it
takes such a relentless, simplerpinded plunge into the
depths of armed aggression that there is no hope o*
its ever re-emerging. By the time the viewer leaves
the theatre, he has been so mercilessly cudgelled by
the spectre of battle that he is numb towards the
very thing which the movie purports to condemn;
namely, war itself.
Ultimately, it seems that Furie has chosen not
to interpret but rather to re-enact the crime
is
his subject. For, all things considered, the viewer
cAnpot help but feel that the motives that went into
the making of this movie were as cynical and
exploitative as the motives which propelled America!
into the quagmires of Southeast Asia. Furie might

have been forewarned. If the result of our
intervention in Vietnam was a stupid, folly-ridden
atrocity, then the net effect of this movie is much
the same.
Now playing at die Boulevard and Thruway
Cinemas.

Heroes and villians
Bartok depicts the ensuing fight between the hero and the thugs
with squeaks and scratches eminating from the violins, followed by a
sort of controlled thunder. A fanfare of brass, backed by the insistent
hum of the violins, added a feeling of surrealistic anxiety. Then, the
music related the smash of the jaw, the roll with the punch, and led to
a finale that Thomas, hair flying, hands jabbing and pulling, squeezed
from the orchestra.
After an intermission, Thomas returned to lead the Philharmonic
through Beethoven's classic Symphony Number Seven. Thomas himself
described the symphony as "expansive, filled with joy, order, and
majesty
and so it was.
The first movement, marked poco sostenudo vivace began with a
slightly slower tempo than is conventional, but the technique was
effective in crysltalizing a gamut of emotions. The image conveyed by
the strings and echoing woodwonds was one of a man rushing to catch
up with his shadow.
The Philharmonic blended and intertwined melodies into a
beautiful net in the second movement; and Thomas made the silences
say as much as the more flamboyant sections. The third movement,
more melodic, was a masterful arrangement of the components to shed
new light on the work and still stay within the bounds of the classic.
Thomas, a man driven by the carousing atmosphere of the fourth
movement, totally conveyed the air of the gypsy dances which
Beethoven represented. After an outstanding finale, Thomas and his
orchestra received two curtain calls from the appreciative audience.
In the aftermath of the concert, as happy listeners filed out of
Clark Hall, John
Director of the Katharine
Cornell Theatre, in charge of the physical setup for the evening, spoke
for everyone when he said, 'The acoustics really came off better than
we expected. It was a superb concert."
And I left the gym, my pillow piped up, "Who says classical music
is dead?!"

One could speak at length about other masters who have written thus (Villa-Lobos,

It is during this third part that

Emmylou Harris, Quarter Moon In A Ten Cent Town (Warner Bros.)

Rock has been a-courtin' its country cousin ever since Elvis broke
the national pop charts. Actually the crossover has more been in the
other direction, Linda Ronstadt and the Eagles being strong examples.
Somewhere between these two falls Emmylou Harris. Country birth,
rock by association and folk in her training have seasoned Harris well as
an interpretative singer. Unfortunately, the material on Quarter Moon
in a Ten Cent Town is not worthy as "Poncho and Lefty" or Boulder
to Birmingham," but Harris singing is an entity to marvel at in itself.
Prior to his death. Gram Parsons made Emmylou his singing
partner. While Harris claims that harmony singing is not something that
comes easily to her, with Parsons it was something of an unconscious
effort. "Gram and I seemed to sing together. I wasn't aware that I was
following him. It was always just a matter of singing together. It was
always very natural." Possibly all of Harris' strongest material was
influenced or written by Parsons. On this album Harris
upon her close associates (Dolly Parton, Jesse Winchester, the Hot
Band). The problem comes with the end of side one. After Winchester's
"My Songbird," on the last band, there isn't much that's memorable;
possibly Utah Phillips' "Green Rolling Hills" is the exception. Many of
the songs were leftovers from the Luxery Liner sessions. Those good
tracks are all mined before side two can leave the ground. 'To Daddy"
is devastating, another Dolly Parton gem. "Easy From Now On,"
written for the album by Susanna Clark, is the best song on the record.
Although it is not Harris' own composition, it defines the state of her
art at the post-Parsons stage;

Before any accusations are directed at anyone

A response to Monday’s The Spectrum article
regarding the campus nuclear facility is warranted in
view of the characterization by Marvin Resnikoff of
the Rachel Carson College Anyone even remotely
knowledgeable with nuclear safety and specifically
fuel transfer methods should know that fuel
transfers are not accomplished by dropping into
storage barrels.

done in strict accordance with approved procedures.

procedures. As a condition of operating any nuclear
facility under Federal license, even minor changes
entail opening such a license for intervention. It is
unfortunate that this opportunity for intervention
and impediment has been taken advantage of by
members of the Rachel Carson College.

It should be noted that Marvin Reanikoff has
never discussed fuel handling procedures with any of
the NSTF staff. Furthermore, he has never inspected
any of the equipment to be used. Nuclear
Regulatory Commission staff has performed an
on-site inspection during the month of November as
part of the license change request review.
characterization of our

Marvin Resnikoff is in our opinion unwarranted and
unjustified.

The recent case of cheating in the Accounting
Department, has provided a new cause to widen the
gap between student, faculty and administration.
Wishing to achieve the acclaims of the West Point
Scandals, the University has chosen to take the
strongest measures possible. The University exists to
provide people with the opportunity to gain an
education, and the chance to better themselves.
While claims of a lack of supervision daring
exams have been made, at the other extreme 1 have
watched fellow students being shuffled around the
classroom like chess pieces to prevent cheating. How
can a sense of trust be established where one never
existed? Perhaps it is time to look al the causes
behind the problem. As a general management
student I have seen my accounting friends working
on individual homework problems for hours and
studying through the weekends preparing for exams

Breast-feeding better
Even under ideal conditions,
the nutritional parity of formulas
to mother’s milk is suspect.
Mother’s milk has been described
as “the perfect food,” providing
all the nutrients necessary for an
infant’s growth and well-being. In
comparison powdered formulas
are not as complete, especially in
famishing protein. What these
formulas lack cannot easily be
substituted in relatively poor

famffies.

benefits of breast feeding. She
categorically denied that the milk
of malnourished mothers is
educates

inadequate, citing that when the

Allies liberated the German
concentration camps after WWII,
“the only people
who were
healthy
were
the breast-fed
babies.” She added that this
phenomenon is well documented.
As for the length of time that
breast feeding is valuable, Peryea
stated that she personally knows
babies in the Western New York
area who thrived on breast milk
exclusively for their first year, and
that her organization endorses
breast feeding for this length of
time.

Sdtfatal

Alan Berg points out in his
book The Nutrition Factor
for
most infants in low-income
countries, prolonged
breast
feeding is vitally necessary to
growth and, quite often, survival,
as it represents the only easily
available source of protein of
good quality containing all the
essential amino acids.”
Although Nettle and other
sources claim that the milk of
malnourished women is deficient
in nutritional elements, other
evidence refutes this. Margo

A further point of contention
is the cow’s milk base of artificial
baby formulas. Great Britain has
discontinued a government milk
distribution program, issuing a
warning that cow’s milk is not
recommended for infants during
their first six months. The
formulas have been criticized as
being overly concentrated and
containing an overabundance of
salts, which some British doctors
believe may cause the syndrome
known as “crib death.”
Peryea
also
described
a
“vicious cycled induced when
bottle feeding is introduced. A
great majority of women can
breast feed, and the more the
baby nurses, the more milk that is
produced.
Bottle
feeling
interrupts lactation, cutting diwn
on milk production. Also, the
bottle nipple gives milk more
easily than does the breast,
meaning that the baby will choose
the bottle. If the baby is
reintroduced to breast feeding, he
will tend not to suck as hard,
which anil reduce the flow.
Importantly bottle-feeding has
not proved to be a successful
method of population control.
Rural populations, needing the
work provided by offspring,
generally have more children if
others do not survive. More
importantly, lactation inhibits
ovulation for four to six months
following childbirth.
Many
societies, including New Guinea
and Nigeria, also have social
taboos against intercourse for
lactating women, for anywhere
from the first few months to two

�SPORTS
UB wrestling Bulls
demolish Brockport
The wrestling Bulls crushed a
of
Brockport
second-stringers 42-0 Wednesday.
Brockport had been ranked
number one this week by
Amateur Wrestling News with
Humboldt College second and UB
third.
Because his team had just won
the SUNY Altantic Conference
Tournament team title, Brockport
coach Don Murray gave his
regulars a day off. “My main
interest is in tournaments,”
Murray said. “I’m interested in
giving the kids a chance to
compete. Hell, my job doesn’t
depend on this.”
Jacoutot
Sophomore Tom
kicked off the rout for the Bulls,
downing Ray Porteus 15-5. The
Golden Eagles offered no entry at
the 126 and 134 pound weight
classes, so Jacoutot’s win and the
two forfeits were good for a 16—0
lead. Buffalo
senior Frank
Massero followed with a 11—7
win aver freshman Bob Lauro,

After Tom Egan recorded his

disposed of Brockport’s Gary
Avdoyan 10—1. Anderson seemed
to have some difficulty with the
freshman, whose 'fireplug size
body made him difficult to grab
onto.

“He

didn’t attempt to beat
me,” Anderson
said.
“He
attempted to stay off his back.”
Anderson’s win assured the Bulls
of the victory, their sixth straight.
Today, Anderson will drop
down to the 150 pound weight
class at the New York State
Championships, as he begins his
quest for All-American honors.
Anderson said he will have to win
both then finish in the top six in
the Division I championships to
win that honor.
In other competition, Bruce.
Hadsell recorded UB’s only pin of
the match, victimizing freshman
Bob Ehrenbrug at 5;59. One of
the more interesting matches of
the evening featured Buffalo’s Jeff
Wheeler and Tony Smith of
Brockport. There was lots of
action in the match between the
two 190 pounders, which Wheeler
won 9—4. Heavyweight Paul
Curka beat Mike Rosenbauer
14-4 to certify Buffalo’s third
shutout of the year.

week. The Bulls are currently
11 -3 on the year.

Instead of receiving a Valentine, the women's
swimming team was handed a loss by Alfred, 73-58
Tuesday night in Clark Hall. The mermaids rtow have
a 3-8 record for the year.
Royals coach Pam Noakes wasn’t really
displeased with the loss in view of the fact that her
team was swimming with only an eight-woman
squad. “We did pretty well, considering,” she said.
Noakes cited Eillen Wood’s first place finish in
the optional diving as the most outstanding
performance of the night for the Royals. Wood
picked up 195.05 points in that event, her highest
point total of the season.
Because the squad was shorthanded, the same
Royal names appear again and again in the statistics.
Captain Mary Drozda took two first place finishes in
the 100-yard individual medley and the 100 breast
stroke (in 1:20.6). Drozda also placed second in the
200-yard individual medley with a time of 2:41.4.
Sally Cloutier came in first twice, once in the
100-yard butterfly and once in the 200-yard free
medley relay, with Deenie Lambie, Wood and Kathy

Brown. Sally took second in the 100-free (105.6)
and then 50 fly (31.6).
On Friday, the swimming Royals will face

�Chilled Water Plant. rr
one-way mirrors are positioned around the building,
so that the “greenhouse effect” of the sunlight won’t
add to the tremendous heat already generated by the
plant’s interior machines.

These machines are comprised of pumps and
compressors, which contain liquid freon. Water is
passed through the compressor’s pipes and is
subsequently cooled from about 50-54 degrees to
40-42 degrees farenheit. Operating on a closed
system, this water is constantly recycled with
minimal loss.
The water used for this process comes from the
tap. When piped onto the campus, the water is
separated and pumped through entirely different
channels, so that the portable water supply will be
unaffected.
After cooling, the water is then pumped to all
buildings on Amherst except for EUicott and
Governors Residence Halls, litis is achieved by a
simple maze of underground pipes. During the long
winter season, the air conditioning unit is not in
operation, for obvious reasons. Thus, the water need
not enter the coils of the air conditioning apparatus.
Once the water has reached its destination, what

™

function does it serve? Simply, it is used to cool
certain machines such as computers. These fussy
computers must be kept at constant temperature, for
they produce so much heat white activated that they
must be cooled off.
Since the bulk of the operation functions during
warm weather, the maintenance and repair work is
attended to in the winter months. lire plant is
staffed by thirteen men who operate the facility on a
twenty-four hour basis. The plant even cools its own
circulating air to cool its machinery.
In addition to the main building, there are two
large concrete cylinders outside the plant. These
cylinders also cool water by blowing air through it.
This semi-chilled water is used to cool the freon in
the compressors so that it won’t evaporate from
liquid to gas.
If construction is ever resumed on the Amherst
Campus, the system is equipped with many outlets
for future facilities. But until that day arises, the
plant will continue servicing the academic spine.
In essence, the Chilled Water Plant is Idee a giant
refrigerator. It isn’t controversial, nor is it
spellbinding. It proceeds about its business in a quiet
unobtrusive way, and will never blow up. We hope.

“Hlusionary Visions,” a student-produced show of magic, dance
and mime will be presented at the Katherine Cornell Theatre here next
weekend.
Magicians Dave DeJac and Abe Steier create their own stories that
give the illusions meaning.
In one illusion, DeJac brings a fantasy that he has created to life.
He. seduces her by hypnotism, leaving her suspended in mid-air. He
then breaks the trance, only to encase her in a wooden barrel into
which he plunges a dozen or more spears.
“Abatar,” a character created and portrayed by Steier is the
somber mime artist who makes cards reappear after they are thrown
away. Steier’s facial expressions are serious, and he can become
annoyed when “Mischief,” Leslie Yudelson, pulls pranks on him. Every
so often he flashes a smile to assure her he has overcome his anger.
Yudelson does a dance solo in the middle of the,performance.
Tyler Wymer, a senior ahere has modifiedYhe Cornell Theatre to
give the audience a more intimate atmosphere, and is in control of
lights and music. DeJac had planned to do his “Cremation” but cannot
because fire is not permitted in the theatre.
Talent tops
Both Steier and DeJac have performed in well known places. Steier
and Yudelson have performed in Florida with “Crack the Sky,” a
popular rock group from Syracuse, and at the Concord, a Catskills
resort.

"NKr*-

‘Illusionary Visions*
at Cornell Theater

DeJac has done shows at Kleinhans and Shea’s Buffalo. A resident
of Kenmore, he started practicing magic when he was nine years old.
DeJac plans future shows at Crystal Beach, a large amusement park in
Canada, this summer. Similar to “Illusionary Visions,” the shows will
incorporate choreography and costume as well as additional illusions.
Steier studied under Jeff McBrad, a man whom he consideres one
of the best magicians in the U.S. Originating from Monticello, he has
been appearing with Yudelson ever since he saw her in a dance
rehearsal last year.
Yudelson from Rochester, has been studying various kinds of
dance for six years. “Ballet is important when it comes to mime and
dance,” she said. “Through ballet, one learns body control.”
Yudelson and Steier have future plans at the “Odyssey” nightclub
in Tonawanda. With DeJac, they recently appeared in “Six
Characters,” a play which ran for an extra week at Harriman* Library
due to popular demand.
DeJac’s equipment was designed and constructed by one of his
assistants, Doug Caskey, and Jumself Other players are Lynn Larson
and Wayne Thomson.

Procedure to stop
cheating: expulsion
This memorandum was sent to the Undergraduate
students from School of Management Associate Dean
Howard Foster on February 7 regarding alleged
cheating practices.
It has come to my attention from a variety of
sources that cheating in the School’s undergraduate
program, and especially in the Registered Accounting
Program, has become both systematic and extensive.
Such dishonesty by anyone is offensive enough, but
when practiced by students who will eventually enter
a profession in which there is a public trust, it
becomes doubly repugnant. For those few of you
who may already be smirking at such an
old-fashioned sentiment, I advise you to read on. For
those many of you who are not only innocent of this
behavior, but also as outraged by it as I am, please do
not take this note as a general indictment of
undergraduates at the School.
The faculty in general, and the accounting
faculty in particular, will shortly be formulating
procedures to forestall cheating on exams. These
steps will be aimed at both discouraging cheating (or
at least making it more difficult) and at identifying
cheaters. If a student is caught cheating, 1 intend
personally to seek to have him or her expelled. Not
warned, not failed, not put on probation, but
expelled. It will not matter if it is a first offense (or
first time caught), or if the student is four credits
away from a degree, or whatever. Please be
forewarned. Honesty is not only the best policy; it is
the safest.

Group Legal Services (GLS) has filed suit against
the New York State Higher Education Services
Corporation (NYSHESC) to ease the new strict rules
governing Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) awards
for students with independent status.
Under the new standards, in order for a student
to quality as a financially independent, he must be
22 years of age or older or both parents must either
be deceased or disabled (incapable of providing
income even for themselves), explained Director of
GLS David Brownstein.
In the past, all a student had to do to receive a
TAP award was prove he was self &gt;.«upporting.
NYSCHESC, which controls the granting of TAP
awards, convened with other financial aid
policy-making bodies last year and decided to change
the requirements necessary for collecting funds from
TAP, said Brownstein.

TAP funds. The court believed that these students
could find other ways of aiding themselves through
school, explained Brownstein.
“I don’t think they took into account the
anxiety that comes with trying to obtain these funds
midway in your college career,” said Brownstein,
“especially after students expected them. Any harm
to students’ grades as a result of the stress is
irreparable in my opinion.”
Attorney Richard Lippes, who is handling the
case, explained that GLS is attempting to end the
disparate treatment of students under and over 22
years of age. Lippes believes that many students
under 22 are indeed financially independent, but
simply cannot meet TAP requirements.

disagreed with the change, saying, “It is improper for
the State to mandate these kinds of requirements.
NYSCHESC deals on a case by case basis for those

�MFCSA President

impeached; not a
registered student
by Patrick Hdmbrecht
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Judi Jones, President of the Millard Fillmore College Student
Association (MFCSA) was impeached Saturday by a majority vote of
the Association’s executive committee.
Jones is not a currently registered MFC student, as required by the
Association’s constitution. The fact that Jones was not enrolled was
researched and confirmed two weeks ago by members of the Executive
Committee who became concerned with her lack of involvement in the
activities .planned by the other committee members. Jones had not
shown up at the last four scheduled committee meetings.
Angie Janetakos, elected Vice President, and now President of the
Association by the removal, said, 'These committee meetings are very
important as they are the key planning and business sessions of the
association due to the very nature of the organization. All the members
of the committee have responsibilities of full time jobs and/or families
to attend to as well as trying to maintain classwork and their positions
on the committee. The meetings are a must.”
Asked for resignation
In a letter sent to Jones, over two weeks prior to Saturday’s
meeting, the executive committee requested her resignation. As of the
meeting none of the committee members had received a response either
verbally or in writing.
The MFCSA Constitution states that every officer of the executive
committee must be a currently registered MFC student and that any
executive committee member not meeting the requirements set forth in
the constitution can be removed from office by majority vote of the
executive committee.
The constitution also reads that in the event that the Presidency
becomes vacant, the Vice President (Janetakos) will overtake the duties

of President.
Following the motion to remove Jones from her office. Secretary
of the Student Association Carol Block motioned for a vote of
confidence from all other members of the executive committee in the
assumption of the Presidency by Janetakos. That motion was seconded
by Director of Student' Affairs Kay Stiffler, and approved by all
members with an abstain ance by Janetakos.
Jones was elected to the Presidency last April in the regular
election held every Spring. Her most controversial act as President was
the withdrawal of the Association from the activities 6f Sub-Board I
Inc., the Student Corporation funded by the various student
governments. MFCSA’s Sub Board.allocation came to one-third of the
total expenditures of the Association’s budget. Night students were

York area. One project, funded by
the city of Buffalo, deals with the
effective
of
functioning
ambulance service and is being
conducted
for
the Buffalo
Ambulance
Service
Board
(BASB). The second is supported
by federal grants and entails a
survey of 6000 area residents
regarding their awareness of the
emergency 911 number.
Department Chairman Warren
H. Thomas is serving as director
for
the ambulance research
project
beginning within the
week. The primary focus of the
study is to check the response
time of the emergency vehicles in
terms of zoning, station and
hospital location, and traffic and
weather conditions. Ambulance
dispatching data from the past
two years will be used along with
input from various health-related
agencies.

why the city sought the services

Thomas replied, “The reason
they’re going with us and not an
outside controlling group is
because we intend to continue our
involvement and cooperation.
We're not just going to leave a
report and walk away .”
According to BASB Chairman
Billitier, “The University is the
whole facet of the project. They
are doing a complete study with
their personnel. Our staff is giving
data and working with them.”
Ultimately, recommendations
based on the results of the
research will be made to the
Steering Committee, whereupon
some sound decisions can be
made. The aim is increased
expediency and efficiency for
ambulance operations. Billitier
asserts, “1 have a very positive

The survey will spotlight the
general public’s knowledge and
use of emergency services such as
the 911 number. Also solicited
will be information from fire,
police and medical agencies as to
how they receive their emergency
calls. Again, the department’s
efforts will be supplemented by
those of a Steering Committee
involving, among others, the
CETA Agency, the Erie 'County
Health Department, Central Police

and
the
Buffalo

The survey should be in full

The multi-faceted damage suit

Illegal surveillance
At the operation’s peak, four
wiretaps were reportedly going
around the clock. The FBI
supplied part of the equipment
and had routine access to the
city’s wiretap room, according to
police sources.
Lee, who took a great interest
in police department matters
during his tenure, was familiar
with the entire wiretapping setup
from its inception and visited the
wiretapping room on at least one
occasion. Lee had such a firm grip
on the police department that
patrolmen were unable to get car
assignments without first talking
to the mayor. The Journal-Courier
reported.
Wiretapping was not the extent
of the operation. Police sources
have admitted to slashing targets’
tires, placing threatening phone
calls and accosting individuals
under surveillance. When the
wiretapping story broke last year
in the Journal Courier, Frank
McManus, chief of police from
1955 to 1968, told the newspaper
that wiretaps began as long ago as
1943 and continued off and on
1950’s. But

Spectrum

Research at this University has uncovered brain damage in baby
mice whose mothers were fed the pesticide mirex during pregnancy.
The study was conducted by graduate student Thomas Holevinski,
under the supervision of Edward J. Massaro, professor of Biochemistry.
Mirex is a poison that was found in contaminated fish from Lake
Ontario, six species of which were banned in September 1977.
In the beginning phases of the research, low levels of the substance
were fed to mice in late stages of pregnancy. Because the Tetus is
vulnerable to toxic compounds, the effects of the Mirex were
manifested to a great degree in the offspring.
A revolving rod was used to test behavioral effects. Abnormal
effects would occur if the cerebellum, the brain area which controls
motor developments and coordination, was damaged. The male mice
displayed more of a lack of coordination, the females were almost
normal. In earlier phases of the research, some of the mice were killed,
and their brain tissues examined to assess the damage.
Dieter's danger
It is hard to say whether or not the chemical could have relevant
effects on human beings, Holevinski said. Mirex, however, could be
potentially dangerous to dieters who eat Lake Ontario fish. “The
problem with Mirex is that it stays with you. It makes DDT look like
something that just washes out,” explained Holevinski. Mirex collects
in fat tissues, which are used up when reducing. The Mirex that was
stored can thus enter the bloodstream very easily. Research on the
half-life of Mirex in the food chain is needed to predict how long
humans may be in danger of it.
Even though effects on humans are undetermined, Holevinski said
that after seeing several mice die from Mirex, he would not eat any fish
that had been contaminated with the substance.

Death to fire-ants
Holevinski has had some problems tracing Mirex in the mouse
tissue. Although his conclusions are valid, he said that the slides used
for arriving at them were not clear. He will use radioactive material to
trace the Mirex.
Mirex is still a problem. The ban prohibiting possession of the six
species of contaminated fish has not yet been lifted, nor does it seem it
will be in the near future. Fish contaminated with toxic substances
over .1 parts per million are not safe for consumption. The fish
contaminated with Mirex are in that category.
Mirex was initially produced to kill fire-ants in the South. It can
also be used as a flame retardant, yet many have said that its implied
dangers no longer justify its production.
Mirex became a topic of interest in 1974. After the chemical was
found in Lake Ontario fish, sediment samples were inspected. These
samples come from the Mouth of the Niagara River where Hooker
Chemical and Plastics Corporation of Niagara Falls was depositing
Mirex. The chemical was also found in a river by Oswego, which also
flows into Lake Ontario.

Indirect abortion is the “carrying
out of a medical procedure
intended to cure or heal an
abnormality in the human body,
incidentally causing an unborn
baby’s death.” The remov il of a
pregnant
woman’s cancerous
uterus was cited as an example.
This type of abortion is not a sin.
However all forms of direct
abortion are, stated Whitehead.
He termed direct abortion an
intentional assault on an unborn
human being, “a highly immoral
matter and a grave sin.”

said, “The old proverb

the second to kill a child.” Incest

with low incidence and as a
double sin. No mention of
statistical sources was made.
Abortion to save a woman's

further stated. The argument is a

The advances of modem medicine

the area of infant mortality, have

“We cannot project trends,” he
commented. “They level off with

Sex no fun
The position of the Catholic
Church on contraception and
abortion is intertwined with its
views on sex. Sex before or
outside of marriage is a sin,
according to Whitehead. “The
nature
of
the act implies
responsibility. Sex is not for fun
and games,” he said. The purpose
of sex is seen as procreation, the
carrying on of the race, and as an
expression
of unity between
husband and wife.

Move psych

The long rood
As friends depart from the University at various odd
times after finishing incompletes and taking care of old
business such as selling battered cars and dog-chewed
furniture, they leave behind after four or more years people
who will remember them as facets of different situations and
states of being that, with their departure, officially become
part of the past.
One friend is about to create history.,He is supposedly
leaving tonight. When he does, an era of friendship will
quietly end. That era spanned years of attending school here
and encompassed all the peripheral activities that comprise a
real college education. That friendship was born out of the
disillusionment of trying desperately to reject everything
especially the people he saw striving 'to
around him
achieve what he sought to reject
and being ultimately
forced to capitulate to what he instinctively knew was evil.
-

—

How many young people arrived here seeking to create
new worlds for themselves, and instead broke down into the
mess generally called university life? Their existentialist
being bore them to the doorway of their first class, to the
hallway of their first dormitory, to the tears of their first
rejection, and then it collapsed into the will of the others,
who said, don't even try to be yourself, you won't fit in.
The friend is leaving this University no less disillusioned
than when he arrived some four and a half years ago. He
knows that what he did here will lead him nowhere and that
what he could have done here would not have made a
difference. The direction of his life is shaped by endless
possibilities and few probabilities and fewer realities, for he
is in suspension.

Out of school and into the real world. But doesn't it
seem that all the folks in the real world have a purpose and a
direction and that their smiling faces were always smiling
and that the ones who don't know where they are going are
called losers?

An increasing number of students leave this school not
knowing why they came here or how they are getting out,
but thinking that they will become happy with what they
are doing once they become successful at it:
This friend will be happy in becoming successful at it,
but he won't know what it is for a long time. Until he does,
may he wander from .Florida to Arizona to San Francisco to
Katmandu with the grace of good will and a full stomach
and a wide open blown out mind that has survived the
frivolities of decadent University life and knows that in spite
of it all, his self will persist. Om.

Porter smells
To the Editor
As residents of Porter Quad we are angered by
Director of Custodial Services Buch's comment (in
the Feb, 1 issue of The Spectrum) that we are being
selfish for not wanting the garbage cans in the hall.
This past weekend the garbage can overflowed
with garbage. The stench produced was unbearable.
We are paying to live in a dorm, therefore we expect
normal living conditions. We doubt that normal
living conditions include garbage-laden floors.
We can understand that having garbage in the
storage rooms can be a fire hazard, but it is just as
hazardous to have it in the hall. Depending on the
position of the can it could prove to be more
dangerous than having it in the garbage room. The
can in our hall is behind a fire door and not near a
smoke detector. The position that maintenance
originally put the can was even worse It was placed
at least 40 feet from a heat detector.
We know for a fact that our storage room (3rd
floor Porter) has a heat detector in it and therefore
we can’t understand why we can’t have the garbage

the storage room.
Also, our floor doesn’t have a lounge and we
must use the hall as a lounge. Having the garbage in
the hall doesn’t make being in the hall very
enjoyable, even just to walk through.
This is just another example of the lack of logic
and planning of UB and their impersonal attitude
towards students.

To the Editor:

As a resident of Porter Quad, I too, must protest
the placement of trash cans in the hall rather in
storage rooms. These cans are eyesores, and,
furthermore, the pungent odors emanating from
these cans are, quite frankly, nauseating.
Further, I refute the claim by Director of
Custodial Services Bush that the removal of garbage

at 9:45

a m. eliminates the problem. These cans fill
up very quickly, and by evening they are overflowing

again, just

as annoying as ever.
Also, I don’t believe that we are being selfish by
requesting that the cans be placed into the storage
rooms again, as Mr. Bush claims. Is it so selfish to
desire to live in a clean, healthy environment? I
think not.

15 February 1978

I am writing in.response to the article in the
Wednesday, Feb. 1 edition of The Spectrum
regarding garbage in Porter. The problem of having
the garbage cans in the hallway is especially acute on
my floor (3rd floor, Building 3) where there arc no
lounges. The garbage can was left in a corner where
students congregate. Whether or not a Board of
Health restriction or building code says anything
about this, it is a health hazard to have garbage in an
area where people gather, it is even worse to have
this when a flu epidemic is already-spreading through

the dorms.

Although I don’t know about the other storage
rooms on different floors, there is a smoke detector
in the storage room on my floor, as opposed to Mr
Bush’s assertion that there is none.
I feel it is in no way selfish to ask thalt garbage
be kept out of the hallway if at all possible.
This issue should not be Mown out of
proportion. Nobody in Porter is “irate.” We
are only
concerned that our health and safety are at stake in
an already unhealthy situation.

FEEDBACK

energy, much of which was just wasted away because
the University is an inefficient energy user.
The Amherst Campus pays a price for the
convenience of electric power, Niagara Mohawk’s
electricity has an efficiency of one third. You put
three btu’s of fuel in and get one out. The rest goes
up the stack or is lost in transmission. By the way,
they’re burning coal and petroleum, thus polluting
the air. If you ask me, the air is polluted enough

To the Editor.

Well, it finally happened. After years of half
promises and who knows what the State of New
York finally broke down and told us the truth. The
Campus
construction
will remain
Amherst
functionally stagnant for the next five years. Are
you really surprised?
I’m not. Why should they continue building the
Amherst Campus? Please don’t start yelling about
split campuses and lousy gym facilities. This is my
third year here so I know what it’s like rolling on
Blue Bird buses and shooting hoops in a punctured
bubble. It’s a pain in the ass. But we’ve hacked it up

already.

The designers of the Amherst Campus seemed to
have planned for the future. By making the campus
all electric, they paved the way for the use of new
technoligies, presently being developed. Wind power
and total energy systems may prove to work well
here.
Using these would greatly improve the
efficiency of energy used on campus. (Remember
we’re now talking about the efficiency of the
electricity itself. Wind energy is free energy Sure it
costs to put up a windmill, but there are no fuel
bills. A total energy system on the other hand
involves generation of electricity on campus
combined with efficient use of the heat left from the
generation Power companies dump this heat into
the rivers or the atmosphere.)
Next how the campus consumes energy must be
considered. Why produce energy efficiently which
will then be used inefficiently. The buildings on the
Amherst Campus are some of the most inefficient
around. They have large areas of steel single pane
glass windows, crazy angles and exposed floors In
many of the, buildings there are inefficient resistance
heaterslocated underneath the windows. Many of
these have not been set correctly by maintenance
and have spewed heal out since September. This
forces residents to open their windows which carries
the heat out into the breeze. Some of the buildings
are already falling apart. Last but not least much of
the place is air conditioned by a terminal reheat
system, a symbol of energy extravagance.
Anyway, we were talking about how UB fits
into Buffalo’s energy problems. The State of New
York is in the position of having to convince people
that drastic measures must be taken to deal with the
energy crisis. How can this possibly occur until it
takes care of itself? Retrofitting the University will
be a visible demonstration to Buffalo of intelligent
energy management.
Where does this leave us students? Jay Rosen
says that we have no control of our destinies here at
school (or at least if We do, we aren’t using it). I say
that we can make a significant contribution to the
solution of the energy crisis in Buffalo. And we’ll be
better prepared for the future. After all, isn’t this
what we’re going to school for?

now and we can in the future
The reason construction on the Amherst
Campus needs to be halted is so the State can take
all the money it planned on using to build new
buildings and use it to fix up the buildings they just
built (and Main Street too). What is the use of
putting up more new buildings when you can't
afford the bills on the old ones.
In case it hasn’t dawned on you yet, the energy
crisis has started
Buffalo. Last week two people
were found frozen to death in their apartments
because National Fuel Gas turned off their gas. The
fact that these people did not pay their bills is not
the issue here. What matters is that NFG has the
power of deciding on whether people live or die,
something that the courts here don’t even have
National Fuel Gas is being boycotted by the
citizen’s alliance. There is a great chance that this
boycott will be successful because of the fact that
the city of Buffalo may hold back its bills too. So
should UB (they probably won’t but who knows)
This boycott is a great idea. But don’t boycott
National Fuel Gas unless you are willing to invest
money into fixing up your home for energy
conservation on top of paying fuel bills (we don’t
want to get rid -of NFG, just be treated fairly).
Unless an outgrowth of the boycott is a commitment
to improving the way energy is used in Buffalo, then
it is a waste of time.
Of course people living in apartments wouldn’t
invest significant sums into energy conservation, yet
they are stuck with a building’s fuel bills (a very bum
rap). But wouldn’t it be fair for your rent to go up if
your fuel bill goes down (especially after your
landlord spent considerable money on fixing up your
to

apartment).

Buffalo has to make important decisions about
its energy future. Now. It’s time to get moving.
Which brings us to the State University of New
York at Buffalo. How does UB fit into Buffalo’s
energy problems? First it consumes quite a bit of
energy. Last year it spent over 6.5 million dollars on

Invisible invincibility
To the Editor.

In a feature on Transcendental Meditation in the
8 February your reporter writes, “Perhaps
the most impressive T.M. claim of all is the Principle
of Invincibility. If the square root of the population
of the whole world would practice the T.M.
the
human
technique,
race would achieve
invincibility . . . world peace and harmony, perfect
health, progress in every country, and nature would
issue of

be balanced . . .”
At first I thought that the only impressive thing
about this was the use of pseudoscientific language
to couch the big emotional grabber, but I’m laughing
out of the other side of my mouth now.
It turns out that, taking the world population at
three and a half billion, the square root is just
59,161. Now, the article also states that there were
over a million meditators as of 1975. That’s almost
twenty times the needed number. In other words,
sometime between 1961 and 1975, while you and I
were leading our earthbound, anxiety-ridden lives, it

happened.
I am reminded of the seventeenth-century Fleet
Street mystic who published a pamphlet predicting
Armageddon in the Plague Year 1666. In 1667 he
published another pamphlet arguing that the world
had in fact ended, but that his critics had not
noticed.

NYPIRG is looking for a television repair expert
and recommendations for
our investigation of television repair shops. The goal
is to obtain a documented picture of TV repair shop
practices that consumers are faced with when they
attempt to have their TV repaired. If you are both
interested and qualified, please call NYPIRG at
831-S426, or stop by our offices at 311,312 Squire.

The School of Management will be involved in
the establishment of the Center, but not to the
exclusion of other departments at this University
with the Schools of Law, Architecture and
Engineering all contributing to the establishment
and implementation of the Center.
Bunn said that the University has received
considerable encouragement from the local
community and that there should be direct
participation by area leaders before final decisions
are reached.
The University will provide part of the funding
to ensure at least a minimum operating budget. In
addition, the Center will charge fees for services it
provides to area businesses.
University funding will also be used to create
assistantships for graduate students.

The first law of the woods is
“wear wool in winter.” Wool has
the singular quality of continuing
to retain body heat even when
wet. When making climbs it is a

good idea to bring along layers
and layers of wool. The average
hiker’s comfort in just a light
sweater and a T-shirt belies the
danger in dressing lightly.

When he stops, goes beyond
the tree line, or exposes himself to
the winds and intense cold on the
summit, he will need every bit of
a coat, two sweaters and a T-shirt,
if not more. Hats, scarves, and
mitts are also
good warm
necessities. The desired effect is to
expose as little skin as possible on
the peak although this is not as
much of a concern once safely

back into the treeline, or during
the rest of the descent.
Clothes should lend themselves
easily to shedding. A sweating
climber

will be that much colder

when he stops, unless he regulates
the warmth of his body by what
he wears to prevent sweating.

Get those gaiters
Staying dry is imperative. To
this end gaiters are very helpful in
keeping melting snow out of the
socks and boots, and nylon shells
do an excellent job of protecting
from the wetness
dungarees
caused by continual contact with
the snow. Nylon shells also enable
the fun-loving individual to slide
back down the mountain once he
has climbed it.
Footwear is important to the
climber. Two pairs of socks are
the minimum requirement, and if

one’s boots are at all tight, the
feet will never be warm. During
the winter, snowmobile boots are
a good bet not only for their
lightness in weight but for their
comfort and heat retention.

�Harlem Wizards

are

set for tomorrow
The Harlem Wizards basketball game, originally scheduled for
February 9, has been rescheduled for tomorrow nijght at no extra
cost to prospective patrons.
The reason for the change, according to Student Association
(SA) President Dennis Delia, is that the Black Student Union
(BSU), sponsors, scheduled the game on the same night as the
Office of Cultural Affairs Buffalo Philharmonic performance. Both
events are using the facilities of Clark Hall. BSU scheduled the
Wizards game without proper written clearance according to
Vice-President for Facilities and Planning JohnTelfer.
SA Treasurer Neil Seiden said that BSU has received verbal
clearance from Technical Assistant for Facilities and Planning Linda
Webb. Webb refused to comment on the matter, but Telfer denied
that verbal clearance had been given. BSU officials could not be
reached for comment.

New York State’s top ranked
team. Last weekend, the Bulls
defeated Ashland College 34-10
and demolished the University of
Cincinnati 44-0, thus raising their

dual match record to 10-3.
Buffalo coach Ed Michael rates
tonight’s match a toss up. “It all

Michael said that there are no

Buffalo track team posts double victory indoors
The UB track team burned
both Houghton and Canisius
Colleges at the Bubble Saturday,
68-1/3 to 37-1/3 to 28-1/3. The
Bulls took first in six of thirteen
events and placed in all but the
high jump and the 60 yard high
hurdles. The win brings their
record to 2 and 1 for the indoor
season.
UB was strongest in the
distance races. They swept the
mile run with the help of smooth
running Buffalo record holder
John Ryerson, who was best in
4:26. Though Ryerson is not yet
in peak shape he feels he can
break his own record of 4:21 this
season. Michael Fischer finished
second in 4:32 and Tom Pitchford
was third at 4:35. Fischer and
Pitchford came back later in the
two mile run to get first and
second with times of 9:44 and
9:57 respectively.
UB sprinters were not slouches
either Saturday. In the 440 yard

dash, Barry Calder placed second
in 54.05 seconds and teammate
Tim Mirando was third in 54.7.
This event was run in three heats
because there were fourteen
entrants. Calder felt he had been
hurt be being in a slower heat. “I
would have worked a little harder
if I had been in the faster heat,”
he said. It seems probable that
Calder would have won the 440
because he came back later and
ran a 440 leg in the mile relay. His
time of 53.3 was .4 of a second
faster than the winning time in
the 440 yard cash.

Bukolt only missed first place by
split seconds. Carle was timed at
6.57 seconds, just .04 of a second
off the lead. Corcoran was third in
6.62 seconds, .09 seconds out of
first, and Bukolt was fourth in
6.72, missing first by .19 seconds.
The half milers ran with
literally no competition in the
two mile relay. This relay team
looked very strong at the
beginning of the season but relay
team member Gene Schwall was

John Centra placed
second with a throw of 29’914”.
In the other field events, the Bulls
took third in the long jump with a
20 foot mark by Bill Reagan and
Bob Schaefer leaped 37’V4” to
place third in the triple jump.
Canisius
Gino
jumper
Cacciatori, area native of Buffalo,
grabbed top honors in the high
jump, long jump and triple jump,
and he also tied for fourth in the
440 yard dash.

Buffalo coach Walter Gantz
was pleased with the victory
which he called “up beat.” Gantz
said, “We’re beating our outdoor
performances of last year.”
Indoor track times are usually
slower than outdoor times, so
when a runner’s indoor times are
better than his outdoor times it is
a sign of great improvement. Next

Nordic skiing club
enjoying popularity
There’s a new club in town for an old sport, ft’s the Cross Country
Ski Club, and its appearance couldn’t be more timely. Cross country,
or Nordic skiing, is growing at a faster pace than ever and the club has
been formed to meet this demand.
The purpose of the Cross Country Ski Club is to provide a means
for ski enthusiasts to participate in group outings. The club is not a
part of the Schussmeisters organization; it is dedicated solely to cross
country skiing. It is open to all students as well as faculty members and
membership is free.
“It’s a great opportunity to exercise and have fun too,” said club
President Gretchen Hoy. “Most trips arc to local parks so if you have
skis, the only expense is for transportation.” She said plans have been
made for titrips to Colden Langlaut, Sprague Brook Park, and Emery
Park.
Originally developed in Scandinavia, Nordic skiing has made an
enormous transitionfrom a mode of Winter transportation to a modem
athletic pasttime. The sport was virtually unknown in this country
until Scandinavian immigrants brought this cultural phenomenon to
the U.S. in the 1930’s. Its popularity remained limited to a few New
England residents until the 1960’s when a Nordic skiing boom began.
Today the entire aim and scope of cross country skiing has changed. A
once quiet and peaceful encounter with nature has been replaced by
vacationing crowds and huge ski races.
Cross country skiing is an excellent way to keep physically active
at that time of the year when most people sit indoors. So get off your
chair,, onto your skis, and glide down to 729 Clement Hall to see
Gretchen for more information about to club and how to join. Make
use of Buffalo’s snow for your own recreation before it all melts away.

&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;

GSA calls for less

Vice President for Academic Affairs Ronald Bunn has offered his
conditional support for student participation in departmental affairs
where he deems it appropriate. However, according to President of the
Graduate Student

time for action by the Administration and not time for further talks.”

Nuclear Reactor shuts down
by Lori Braunstein

Staff Writer

The Campus Nuclear Reactor will remain closed
indefinitely until 1 3 year old radioactive fuel can be
removed, according to its director Charles Thomas.
The fuel currently sitting on a concrete floor of the
reactor and is preventing a leaking pipe underneath
the floor from being repaired.
The reactor was shut down in October 1977 by
the Federal Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC)
pending the pipe’s repair “The leaking material
saturated the ground around the reactor and ran off
into the sewer system,” said Faculty Advisor of
Marvin Resnikoff.
Rachd
MHI Cailaga
“This leak of about 500 gallons per day was 227
times what the NRC considers a safe level,” he

added.

In order to repair the reactor as quickly as
possible a request to amend the reactor’s license and
permit temporary additional fuel storage capacity
was made by the Nuclear Safety Committee (NSC)
of this University. Plans were developed to remove
and store the radioactive fuel while repairs were
being made on the leaking pipe.
The NSC’s request to amend its license was
published in the Federal Register. “The article from
the Federal Register was sent to RCC by a friend,”
said Resnikoff. “We had very little time to get
together a petition for an intervening hearing,”
explained Beth Phillips, organizer of University
Community Concerned About Reactor (UCARE).
Along with the North Buffalo Food Coop,
UCARE petitioned for the intervening hearing. Both
organizations objected to the specifications that
provided for the removal of the radioactive
materials. “Their method of dropping the radioactive
material into storage barrels equalled bush league

incompetence,” said Resnikoff. “That fuel has been
in the reactor for 13 years and it’s hot.” The
UCARE-Coop petition for an intervening hearing
was sent to the NRG on December 15.
On Decetnber 16 the NSC withdrew its request
to amend the license. “The request was withdrawn
because the petition for the hearing negated the
purpose of the amendment to the license,” said
Thomas. “The purpose of the amendment was to
save time and have the reactor repaired within a
month. The hearing process would have taken four
to six months. The fuel will be removed according to
the specifications of the license as it now stands,
“The trade, equipped with a special cask, that
will take the nuclear fuel away, has been delayed for
several reasons, said Thomas.
dock' strike
delayed it because this special cask is used all over
the world. It also must be relicensed after each use.”
The reactor will remain shut down until the fuel
is removed and the pipe repaired. Thomas has no
idea when the truck will arrive tb pick up the
V
radioactive material.

Thomas and Assistant Director Martin Haas
contend that the withdrawn plans for removal were
totally safe. They also believed that the reactor
should not have been shut down. “By the time the
radioactive leaking material reaches the edge of the
reactor it has been diluted to below the drinking
water standard,” said Haas.
According to Thomas, “The NCR sent an
inspector unacquainted with this facility, and the
severity of the leak was a matter of interpretation.”
“As a result of the reactor shutdown two classes
originally scheduled for this semester had to be
cancelled,” said Thomas. “Research has also been
affected. The Pressure Vessel Safety Program,
important to the National Energy Program, has been
greatly affected.”

For the belabored factory worker, omnipresent drudgery lives on
From sunrise to sunset, resentment grows among the laborers of the
J.P. Stevens Company as they earn the crumbs the capitalists toss to
them in their disparaging roles; whores of industrialism. But in the true
spirit of corporate America things remain “status quo;” it’s still profit
before people.
J.P. Stevens, the nation’s second largest textile company, owns and
operates 85 plants in the South. The corporation’s labor relations have
earned an ignominious reputation as America’s “number one corporate
law breaker.” Since 1965 J.P. Stevens has been declared culpable of 15
labor law violations by the National Labor Relations Board.
Despite frequent convictions for labor law violations and a
nation-wide boycott of its proctncts by the Amalgamated Clothing and
Textile Workers Union (ACTWU), J.P. Stevens remains an approved
supplier for the SUNY system. At SUNY Binghamton, head of the
boycott, committee Robert Davis recently brought the Stevens matter
before Binghamton Vice President for Finance and Management.
Edward Demske.
Davis was quick to point out that Binghamton recently purchased
$8000 worth of J.P. Stevens’ carpeting for certain buildings. Demske
said, “Since companies awarded purchasing contracts with New York
State must agree with a non-discrimination clause as part of their
signed contract, it would appear hat if the charges are true, J.P. Stevens
is in violation of their contract.”
The national boycott of J.P. Stevens was organized by the ACTWU
and this past June, the Student Association of the State of New York
joined the effort. Among J.P. Stevens’ products are Yves St. Laurent
sheets, Fruit of the Loom hosiery and Gulistan carpets. According to
Paul Minkoff, campus -coordinator for the boycott in New York State,
“The campuses are very important. As the boycott continues, J.P.
Stevens will try to keep sales figures up.” How? Dumping products at
lower prices on the overseas market and to institutions.
The labor law violations do not come cheap. Minkoff said, “J.P.
Stevens will have to pay $100,000 for each violation they have been
previously found guilty of and $5000 for every day it continues.”
Due to the fact that J.P. Stevens packages many of its products
under different brand names, it has been difficult to detect what, if
anything, has been purchased at this University. Edward Doty, Vice
President for Finance and Management, said, “I haven’t really given it
much thought. My position is neutral. If they are breaking the law,
then it should be handled in court. It seems to me to take punitive
measures on my own is taking the law into my own hands and is not

Roll over, Freud
Sexist therapists may cause problems instead
solving them. Sexism in relation to women usually
implies a set of attitudes about what women should
be: wives, mothers, passive supporters, heterosexual,
etc. A therapist who believes that all a women’s
problems
stem from her not playing
the
passive-dependent role in marriage may ignore her
real needs and feed the negative feelings about
herself.
Such a woman might conclude that she can be
“blamed" for her emotional distress. Pitt noted that
many lesbians in therapy are hurt by a counselor
who did not accept lesbianism as a viable lifestyle,
but as an illness to be cured. Being labeled as “sick"
or deviant from the norm can only damage an
already low self-image.

enjoyed an excellent reputation with its employees.” However, the
courts have since ordered J.P. Stevens to reinstate 287 workers who
were fired illegally and pay them back wages totaling over $1 million.
This slap on the wrist castigation has done virtually nothing to
thwart corporate injustices. Last year, J.P. Stevens recorded $1.1
billion in sales, ranking 181 in Fortune magazine’s list of top 500
corporations.

Unfortunately, the emperor was
not as sentimental and Valentine

Keep wolves away
Some historians believe that St.
Valentine’s Day became a lovers’
holiday because it’s near to
Lupercalia, an ancient Roman
festival on February IS which
celebrated fertility. At this time,
young men struck people with
strips of animal hide to guard
against wolves (no explanation
was given as to what wolves had
to do with the Romans’ fertility).
Supposedly, women were more
than happy to be beaten with the
animal hide because they thought
it made them more fertile. (Talk

It was also believed that birds
mated around the fourteenth of
February. That idea, added to
Lupercalia, and two St. Valentines
led to the designation of a St.
Valentine’s Day celebration.
The custom of sending verse on
this day has been traced to a
Frenchman named Charles, Duke
of Orleans. He was captured by
the English during the battle of
Agincourt in I41S. On Valentine’s
Day, he sent his wife a rhymed
love letter from the Tower of
London where he was imprisoned.
In the 1700’s, a common
custom was for men to draw
women’s names from a jar, thus
becoming
“valentines.”
The
women’s names were then worn
on the sleeve; hence came the
expression “wearing his heart on
his sleeve.” The men then gave
their valentines gifts and paid
special attention to them.

Valentine’s Day continues to
be big business for merchants. In

Florists overwhelmingly agree that
the favorite for Vakatina’s Day is
red roses. “Considering how high
the price is, you’d be pretty lucky

were thinking of going out to

remarked, “It’s fine if there is
someone to celebrate it with. But

Juvenile law needs changes
by Thomas Rosamilia
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Los Angeles juvenile court judge protem Joseph
Sorrentino, a former street gang brawler in Brooklyn
and juvenile delinquent, spoke in the Fillmore Room
of Squire Hall last Thursday night about his
remarkable career and his thoughts about legal
reforms in his field.
In spite of his accomplishments, Sorrentino
believes that he is by no means extraordinary and
that many other youths presently leading self
destructive lives have as much, if not more potential.
“The only difference is that I had a chance,” he

explained!
Sorrentino outlined three major points about
die juvenile justice system that require reform. He
told the receptive crowd that, “juvenile law must be
adjusted and modernized. The traditional moralistic
view of men as being guided by free will done, and
thus having to assume complete responsibility for his
actions, must be modified in favor of a more
humanistic view which recognizes delinquency as
being caused by maladjustment and emotional
disturbances.”
He suggested tfaat the courts must be enabled, to
deal more effectively with more serious offenses,
“by cutting down or eliminating the backlog of cases
involving the less serious petty offenses; the so-called
status offenses such as loitering.”
Finally, and "most important,” according to
Sorrentino, "there must be changes in the
institutions desiped to rehabilitate delinquent
youth.” In order for the concept of rehabilitation to
be intelligently applied, Sorrentino believes “that the
large, sterile and bankrupt youth reformatories must
be eliminated.” He advocated the use of smaller,
homelike surroundings in which small groups of
juvenile delinquents, under substitute parents, can
receive the proper rehabilitative care and treatment.
“Only in this way,” he claimed, “can they have any

kind of a chance
A high school drop bat, Sorrentino became
involved in street gangs at an early *gD, was first
arrested at age 14, and sent to Youth House, a
detention center for delinquents in New York. Upon
release, he returned to the greets to find what he
termed, “a future of menial job* facing him.” He
resumed his street gang association and soon became
involved in a gang war in which he was charged with

seriously injuring a rival gang member. Subsequently
indicted for assault, Sorrentino was sent to the
Raymond Street Jail, which was then notable for its
horrendous conditions. He described it as “being

worae than the famed Tombs.”

Dead existence

After his release, “in seeking a way out of his
dead end existence,” said Sorrentino, “1 joined the
Marine Corps." Unable to assimilate the rigid
regimentation of the Marines, he was sent to the brig
repeatedly, enduring “abuse and humilatiOn.” Once,
after attempting unsuccessfully to escape, he was
bound and gagged and confined to a padded call.
The Marines sent Sorrentino, at the time nearing a
complete breakdown, to an insane asylum for
treatment ind later back to the brig.
Dishonorably discharged from the Marine Corps,
Sorrentino found the turning point in his life was
“when I returned to high school and got my
diploma. Graduating in the top one percent of his
class at the University of California, he moved on to
Harvard Law School. To remove his dishonorable
military discharge, he returned to the Marines and
went
through boot camp again, something
Sorrentino described as “masochistic. In fact,” he
said, “it was much harder for me to get back into the
Marine Corps again than it was to get into Harvard
Law.”

that “40 percent of all marriages for women now in

the 19 of these 38 divorcees who are likely to

are not media myths. According to the U.S.
Population Reference Bureau (PRB), the 1970’s are
indeed “seeing trends that portend marked changes
in the traditional American way of family life.”
Paul C. Click and Arthur J. Norton, authors of a
PRB bulletin, Marrying, Divorcing, and Living
Together in the U.S. Today, are leading authorities
on this country’s family-related statistics. They
suggest that “persisting high divorce rates and falling
marriage rates are clues that the U.S. may be losing
its reputation as the most marrying of industrialized
nations.”
However, the authors say the increase in divorce
and in living together without being married are, to a
large extent, consequences of the relaxation of social
pressures against these actions. PRB’s Current
Population Survey, conducted monthly among a
national representative sample of 47,000 households,

Director of University Libraries Saktidas Roy has recently

Strange bedfellows
According to the study, propects for marriage
and re-marriage have been dimmed by shrinking job

opportunities, the recession, and the women’s
movement. “More permissive behavior means greater
choice in lifestyles and more flexibility in the
development of individual potential,” the report
said. Moreover, the delay in first marriage, downturn
in re-marriage, and increased experimentation with
pre-marital sex may develop more stability for
marriages that do take place.
Adults of the same sex living together make up
over three percent of the country’s approximately
32 million unmarried persons aged 25 and over. Men
with a bachelors degree or graduate training are most
likely to marry and least likely to divorce, the report
noted. By contrast, women aged 35
54 who have
gone on to graduate school are “below average” in
marital stability, “but improving.”
There is a large population of college-age
couples living together at this University. Most feel
their experience is rewarding. One couple living
together for a year found that their adjustment to
each other was a fairly easy one. “It took a little
getting used to,” they agreed, “but the way things
are now, we don’t think they’ll change. We’re
planning to get married.” Both felt that living
together before marriage is very important; “You
become aware of what happens in a day-to-day
relationship,” they said.
—

Re-divorced
The March, 1977 surveyed 957,000 adults
maintained homes “which they shared at the time
with an unrelated adult of the opposite sex.
Together these accounted for nearly two million
persons,” Click and Norton reported. “About
606,000 of these unmarried couples were men with
an unrelated woman living in, and the other, perhaps
surprisingly were 351,000 women with an unrelated
man living in,” as compared to a 19 percent increase
from 1960 to 1970. This study shows an 83 percent
increase since 1970.
The report maintains that in 1960, most couples
were “older women with a young man as a tenant,”
whereas today, the majority are “young men sharing
living quarters with a young woman.” However,
these 957,000 couples make up only two percent of
country’s
the
current
48
million
“couple-households.” The study predicts that by
1987, this country will not come close to having 12
percent of its couples living together informally, as is
the case in Sweden.
Since the baby boom of the ’50’s, divorce has
risen steadily; since 1972, rates of first marriage and
re-marriage have taken a nose dive, observed Click
and Norton. The U.S. divorce rate in 1977 was far
above that of any other country. Click and Norton

On the other hand, some couples object to living
would rather wait until they

together, saying, they

get married.
Associate Director of University Counseling
Service, Beatrice Roth, said, “A lot of students have
concerns about relating to people they are close with
in a living-together situation. There is much more
willingness to try out a relationship before making a
commitment,” she noted. “There is also much more
awareness today of what goes into a relationship.”
The typical American family of the future may
vary from that of the past. But as Click and Norton
conclude, “Some two of every three marriages are
expected to last until 'death do they part.’ Marriage

is in no danger of extinction.”

Task forces voice
opposition of quotas
Young Americans for Freedom (YAF), the nation’s largest
conservative youth group, has announced the formation of a Task
Force on Affirmative Action. The Task Force, composed of YAF
members from Massachusetts, California, Ohio, Texas, Pennsylvania,
New York, and Washington, D.C. will produce a study considering the
whole question of affirmative action and reflecting YAF’s opposition
to quotas and other forms of special privileges.
Members of the Task Force will hold hearings, make speeches,
write articles, and otherwise explore the issue of affirmative action
before issuing a report.
YAF has been actively involved in the affirmative action issue for
some time. Last year, the youth organization filed an Amicus curiae
brief with the Supreme Court supporting Allan Bakke. Bakke, a white
engineer, claimed that he was rejected by the University of California
at Davis Medical School on the basis of his race. The University
defended its special-admissions program but did not deny that Bakke
would have been admitted had all applicants been required to compete
equally.
YAF’s brief, written by Marco De Funis, who filed the first
“reverse discrimination” case in 1970, said that special preferences for
one race in public school admissions violate the 14th Amendment
guarantee of equal protection.
YAF members believe that they represent most young people on
this issue. They cite a Gallup Poll showing that 83 percent of
Americans under 30 reject preferential treatment for women and
minorities, while only 11 percent support it.
This spring, YAF members will sponsor debates and seminars at
many campuses on the issue of affirmative action. They plan to
distribute hundreds of thousands of pieces of literature opposing
“reverse discrimination.” Some legal action in addition to the Bakke
case is contemplated and YAF will also support proposed legislation
which would outlaw preferential treatment in government hiring and
education.
YAF has 55,000 members in some 500 chapters in all 50 states.
YAF members work for individual liberty, a free-market economy, and
a strong national defense. The organization, headquartered in Sterling,
Virginia, just outside Washington, D.C., has 75 members of Congress on
its National Advisory Board.

�Early ski buses

Basic Human Knowledge

To the Editor.
Schussmeister’s Ski Club has severely limited the
number of early buses on Friday nights. This has
caused major inconveniences to many members.
Even if you get up early and get to the office just as
it opens, you will probably still not get a reservation
for an early bus. You had better count on getting up
very early in the morning to beat the crowds. This
will probably lead to people camping out in front of
the door to get reservations. A Black Market may
even be organized.
Many Club members, including myself, have
come to depend on the early bus to get in a decent
night of skiing. With this new policy, many will have
to drive, or suffer with a half-night of skiing.

To the Editor:

I write in support of Mark Sarlitto’s very

important letter (The Spectrum, 8 Feb.) on the need
for General Education at U.B. Because of the need
for highly trained specialists in our society and- an
unfavorable attitude towards required courses,
American college education has become narrow in
scope and dangerously shallow in its effect upon the

r

minds of students. I believe that this is especially
true of U.B. with its extremely minimal distribution
requirement. The majority of students, whether they
mnjor in the social sciences, the humanities,
professional studies, or the sciences, choose to take
very few courses that encourage original and
interpretative thought. This is due to a general
ignorance of the positive qualities of these courses
and, more familiarly, to a desire to take “easy”
courses with minimal content. The courses that I
believe are neglected and much needed are not only
English, History, Classics, and the like but also
Sociology, Psychology, Communication, Biology,
and Engineering.
I believe that it is Essential that a person be able
to develop a viewpoint of his (or her) place in
history and today’s world and be able to express his
beliefs both orally and in writing. The right of free
speech and, more basically, the ritfit of an individual
to determine his own beliefs are devalued if a person
is ignorant of the range of human beliefs and is
unable to express any belief.
A basic program of General Education involving
perhaps 24 to 32 credit hours of courses in English
and Communication, History, Social and Behaviorial
Science, and General Science would enable a student
to develop a basic knowledge of human experiences
(past) and affaire (present) and the ability to express
himself. The student, the university, and our society
would all benefit greatly.

There are a number of basic, human joys
everyone can rejoice in.
Watching someone open your present is a common
example, but more intruiging is the simple process of
teaching. There is something internally delightful
successfully
about
communicating
skills
or
knowledge
to another
human being. The
teacher-student relationship fa, in its essence,
mutually rewarding exchange.
Anyone who has let go of a bicycle and smiled
as a little brother peddling furiously down the
sidewalk for the first time without falling .. will
agree. A shared triumph is always more glorious.
Which is why so many people dedicate their
lives to teaching. Along with nursing, social work,
counseling and other variously altruistic professions,
the rewards of teaching fill the human heart, though
they do not often do the same for the wallet. The
on/i women
men and
encountered a ong the path a.to an
Education are usually propelled by this inner
satisfaction. Chances are that your favorite high
school teacher recalls you'as a favorite pupil, unless
of course you secretly lusted after him or her and
never breathed a word of it. But, in any event, the
mentors worth remembering play these thrfee roles
with equal brilliance: Scholars, with a firm command
of the subject; Couriers, with the ability to carry
that message to the world; and Artists, with in
internal love for their work.
We arrive at a University, unfinished portraits of
our thirteen years spent in various Artists’ studios,,
and quivering with the thought of the new challenge
of higher education
the chance to interact with
others of our intellectual level, to immerse ourselves
in our chosen field, to make the sweeping turn from
student to scholar.
As freshmen we literally chime with our
crystalline hopes spilling from newly purchased
notebooks and denim over-alls. Expectations are
high, and when the Professor walks in to our first
lecture, we frantically scribble down everything he
utters and make sure we address him reverently as
“Doctor.” From then on, life as a college student is a
slow shattering of illusions.
Thinking back, have you any dreams you’d like
to sell?
-

The upcoming referendum on arming the
university police will provide students with an
opportunity to express their opposition to the
introduction of guns op campus. The university is a
place for study, research, and the free interchange of
ideas among equals in an atmosphere free of the
threat of violence. No amount of pontificating by
the pro-gun theorists of the university police can
hide the fact that hand-guns have no other purpose
than violence. The arming of security represents a
needless disturbance of the peace and freedom of
campus life.
We urge all members of the university
community to step forward and voice their
objections to the use of arms at U.B. We call upon all
undergraduates to combat the odious spread of
weapons, onto campus by participating in our
campaign against an armed police. An open meeting
for everyone interested in joining us will be held
Friday, February 17, 1978, at 3 p.m. in Haas
Lounge, Squire Hall.

reasons for this limiting are shabby at best. I suggest
that the Ski Club live up to its promises, at least for
the remainder of the season. If they want to change
the rules, change them next year, rather than

Professors are, quite simply, not here to teach.
Although there are exceptions, most profs to not
consider themselves teachers, they do not
particularly enjoy teaching, they have no formal
training other than pretending to teach in their roles
as professors. The world of higher education
demands that they be skilled scholars, and nothing
else.
Professors, for all of their academic lives, have
been not budding teachers, but students. As
undergraduates they enjoyed so much success that
they went on to become superior graduate students.

continually threatened with their jobs and shunned
b the academic establishments.
Research (Money) makes the world go ’round at
an y large university. An academician’s measure of
success is respect and notoriety among his learned
collegues. How is this earned? By publishing his
v ews and accomplishments in hard to read journals
anc*
rolling in the research (prestige) contracts for
t* lc department. In exchange for being given the
atmosphere in which to achieve these goals, the
Professor is asked to, among other things, handle a
few courses. He usually complies.
t
There are rio points earned for preparing an
interesting lecture, or arriving to class on time. It
does the Prof no good to help a troubled student
through the course. He will not be granted tenure
commonly known as academic nirvana
because
three hundred undergraduates walk around telling
their friends howjmuch they enjoyed his course
This does not mean that concerned, talented
teachers cannot be found at this University
there
are a few. But the system heri works overtime
against it. For any professor, it makes sense to pour
all efforts into publishing and research. Excellence in
the classroom just goes unrewarded. It is
almost
suicidal to concentrate on teaching.
Furthermore, Professors, having been reared on
fhe pursuit of knowledge, are not interested in
devoting their lives to dispensing the same. Very few
of them revel in the experience of communicating
knowledge, they lack an artist’s appreciation for the
teacher-student relationship. In this respecf they
differ radically from the mentors of our- past. While
Mrs. MacIntyre, back in the fourth grade, wanted
you to go away wiser. Professor Parker
would just
like you to go away.
■
Many Profs own a genuine contempt
for
students whom they consider lazy, undedicated and
nuisances. Not an entirely inaccurate image. Of
course, we must consider which came first, the
Chickens we call Professors, or the 14,000 eggs
rolling around, waiting to be scrambled.

Food Day: an annual event
Rachel Carson College (RCC)
Day on
will sponsor Food
Thursday, April 20 to centralize
and highlight the food problem in
the world. RCC has splnsored
Food Day for the past three years,
and this year it plans to balance
the concentration activities and
workshops at both campuses.
The concept of Food Day
originated on April 17, 1975 in
and
Washington,
D.C.
was
coordinated by the non-profit
Center for Science in the Public
Interest (CSPI). In the past,
groups wishing to sponsor Food
Day could contact CSPI and
obtain lists of films, lecturers, and
guidelines to promote the activity.
This year, CSPI is not behind the
nationwide observance because
there are enough people donating
their time and energy, according

coordinator of Food Day at
this University, Reid Kelner.
The reason for a Food Day as
opposed to a Food “Semester”
said Kelner, is that “with a higher
activities,
of
concentration
to

lectures, teach-ins and workshops,
the impact will be stronger arid
become
people
may
more
cognizant of the situation.”
There are two main themes
that the Food Day activities are
centered around. World hunger
issues, including starvation and
the “green revolution” are one
topic of discussion. Nutritional
problems, which stem from the
availability
of non-nutritional
food such as “junk” food are the
other major area of concern.
The “green revolution” is the
technological answer to the food
shortage, said Kelner. The massive
use
of
chemical pesticides,
fertilizers and huge tractors and
other
farm
equipment
is
characteristic of the way greater
food output per acre can be
achieved. Nevertheless, energy
constraints make this solution

questionable.

“Practices are those events that

There are under the prerogative of

rights.
The Patients’ Rights Project was begun last year by a group of
concerned students and area health workers who recognized the
need for better delivery of health care services, both on campus and
in the community. They learned that they had rights as patients,
and that those rights have been upheld by the American Hospital
Association (A H.A.) in their patients’ bill of rights.
Armed with this knowledge, the group developed a slide show
presentation and discussion format to inform people of their rights.
Working through the YWCA, community centers, university health
classes, and community health clinics, they spread this information
and acted as advocates for those in particular need of support.
The project work is being continued this semester, under the
auspices of NYPIRG. Present plans according to project coordinator
Allison Miller, include “expanding and revising our slide show,
condensing the Buffalo Patients’ Rights pamphlet into a short fact
sheet for wide distribution, and reaching out into the community
with our information.”
The goal, Allison claims, is to “expand our contacts through
the use of these presentations to an increasing number of high
school and university students, health clinics, and community
centers with information on patients’ rights.”
The project is presently looking for volunteers. Anyone wishing
to get involved should contact the NYPIRG Office at 311 Squire or

Plea to recognize teachers
Declaring that a Board of
Regents plan to recognize teachers
as professionals is, “an idea whose
time is woefully overdue,” New
Yo rk
Educators
Association
(NYEA) President Edwin J.
Robisch told the Regents last
week that his statewide union
fully supports the concept of a
professional board to govern the
teaching profession and has urged
the Regents to take action, but no
specific recommendations for the
board’s make-up have been
publicly discussed.
“It is patently absurd not to
recognize the people who educate
the
state’s
children
as
professionals. We live in strange
times when people who give
massages, cut hair, crack sore
necks, stick needles and treat pets
for illness are recognized by the
state as professionals and those
who have responsibility for
educating our children are not,”
Robisch told the Regents at a
public hearing to, consider the
concept of teaching as a licensed
profession.
The head of the 25,000-teacher
statewide union noted that there
are presently 30 professions
recognized by the state (including
acupuncturists,
chiropractors,
veterinarians,
masseuses
and
masseurs, dentists and architects)
all of which are governed by
professional boards which consist
of a majority of the respective
professions.
“There is, without question, a
place for teacher education
faculty and administrators, school
district administrators and laymen
on the board. But the primary
function of the board would have

NYPIBG: working
for patients’ rights

Robisch added
Finally, in urging the Regents
to take action and create proper
guidelines for implementation of
the plan, Robisch urged the
to recognize,
“the
Regents
organizations which represent
teachers at the local level must be
recognized by the state as
of
legitimate
representatives
teachers to implement the entire
process of making teaching a legal
profession.”
“The time has come for the
Regents to adopt and pursue what
school boards have had to accept
for a decade
that teachers have
legal representatives for them in
all
matters
of professional
concern,” Robisch said.

during elections

In a move designed to speed up
the lengthy process of tallying
votes, the Erie County Board of
Elections has employed a program
aimed at installing the Printomatic
machine in all the 1066 voting
districts throughout the county.
The Printomatic first available
to the county in 1955, has not
been utilized until now and is
being tested in the Masten,
Ellicott and South voting districts.
If successful, machines will be
installed in most, if not all, of the
remaining districts.
The basic idea behind the
device is to reduce the time it
takes to tally votes after the
election booths have closed. The
old process takes 30 minutes to
read each machine, with an
inspector having to read and
transpose the results onto tally
sheets. In addition, inspectors
have to travel quite a distance
from district to district. The total
process can take anywhere from
one week to ten days, causing the
county to employ 15 regular
workers and a number of
part-time workers.
The Printomatic, if installed,

will be read in the morning before
the polls officially open and again
at the end of the day. It takes just
30 seconds for the new devise to
tally the votes. Once this is done,
the inspector can simply collect
the tally sheets. The incorporation
of this system could also lead to
the establishment of a central
tabulating center where all the
tallies would be sent directly via
computer. The need for a
computer task group to tally the
countywidc vote would thereby
be eliminated.
The Printomatic is a relatively
small device at the rear of the
voting machine. It consists of
paper, carbon and a crank handle.
When the voting period is over,
the inspector pulls the crank
handle and the machine takes an
inprint of the information on the
back of the machine.
To convert to this machine will
be an expensive process, according
to Deputy Commissioner Ted

Fencing Bulls triumphant,
foil Oswego’s win record
by Robot Basil
Spectrum Staff Writer

The University of Buffalo fencing team nipped
Oswego 14-13 last Wednesday evening in Clark Hall.
Buffalo is now 4-0, and previously undefeated
Oswego dropped to 7-1.

The Bulls immediately took the lead with team
captain Jon Solomon’s 5-0 victory in the foil event.
At this point, Solomon is undefeated in eight bouts
and appears to'be the Bulls* number one prospect to
go to the Nationals this year. “We put Jon fust in
the lineup because it is a good psychological jump on
the opponent to win the first match. And Jon always
wins,” commented assistant coach Glenn Miller.
Rich Sherman rounded out the consistent
“one-two stab” by also winning all three of his foil
bouts. Sherman did run into trouble, however, in his
second bout against Oswego’s Jeanne Carey. Carey is
the only female varsity fencer on the Oswego team.
After falling behind, Sherman barely escaped with a
5-4 win. Sherman explained that, “she really sapped
my concentration. Although she’s really a very good
fundamental fencer, I had a hard time taking her
seriously. She almost had me.”

Temper, temper
Tension between the two undefeated teams was
in the early-going. At one point, fencer

affect the fencer’s concentration. Getting the touch
does not always act as a full release. When a fencer
yells, he can more easily think about the next.point.
The noise can also throw off the opponent.”
The match was always close, and the Bulls
entered the third round of fencing with a slim 10-8
lead. Buffalo’s Agim Huerisowic started the third
round in the foil event. Huerisowic, normally an
epee fencer, jumped to a 4-1 lead over Carey, but
then fell victim to Carey’s consistent and effective
attacks and lost the match in overtime. “Agim
performed very well for fencing foil the first time.
We might make that a permanent change for him,”
said Bremer.

Prized pupil
After Chor Wong’s first toss in his last six bouts,
Buffalo’s hopes lay on opee fencer Ted Pawlicki.
Pawlicki is a transfer student from Oswego who
failed to make the varsity team there last year.
Earlier in the match, he defeated Glen Moore, the
Oswego fencer who taught Pawlicki the sport.
In the deciding match, Pawlicki faced Marty
Miller. Cautiously advancing and retreating, Pawlicki
waited for his opponent to make a futile jab before
parrying his sword to the side and making the first
touch.
Duelling to a 4-3 lead, Pawlicki batted down the
repeated swinging slashes of his opponent. Pawlicki
waited for the best possible moment for the final
attack, and then lunged forward and stabbed Miller
under his neck for the match’s deciding point.

�Win number nine

Hockey Bulls beat Geneseo
by Mike Rudny
Spectrum

Staff Writer

The hockey Bulls picked up
their ninth win of the season
Wednesday evening by skating
over Geneseo State 5-1 at the
Tonawanda Sports Center. Five
different players scored for the
Bulls, who now sport a 9-10
record on the year. In addition,
their record in the New York
Collegiate Hockey Association
(NYCHA) is 5-3, fourth in the
eight-team league.
Senior center Frank Anzalone
opened the scoring for Buffalo at
the 8:20 mark, as he scored on a
rebound after consecutive shots
by Chris Bonn and Stu Campbell

blocked by
net-minder Gerard Ellers.
The Bulls were shorthanded on

two occasions earlier in the first
period. The stalwart play of
defensemen Rich MacLean and
Dan Gemmer and the solid
goaltending of Bill Kaminska kept
Geneseo off the scoreboard.

Key basketball win

Royals demolishRochester
“This game was very important game for us,”
said Royals’ basketball coach Liz Cousins. Buffalo
had just demolished the University of Rochester
75-51 Thursday night at Sweet Home High School in
a key game as far as the Royals’ playoff hopes are
concerned.
Buffalo avenged a 24-point loss to the
Yellowjackets last year and ended a streak of two
consecutive twenty point losses this year. More
importantly, the Royals dominated every phase of
the game in front of Rochester coach Jane Possee, a
member of the playoff selection committee.
Additionally, Rochester is considered one of the
top teams in Western New York, and they entered
the game with an 8-2 record. The Royals, now .8-5,
and Rochester, are contenders for the playoff spot
from this area
both teams cannot make the
playoffs. The decision will be made on February 19.

The Royals’ showed a 180 degree reversal from
their play in the previous two games. Their shot
selection was impeccable, and as a result, they made
a large percentage of their shots. “We worked a lot
on shooting yesterday.” said Cousins. “We had to
take good shots. We’re not tall- Ws have to get the
rebound but we’re not goingto outjump anybody.”
Still, the Royals got their share of offensive
rebounds, and most of the defensive ones, too.
Center Janet Lilley and forward Paula Hills pulled
down ten and seven rebounds, respectively.
Defensively, Buffalo cut off the Yellowjackets’
inside game, effectively nullifying Rochester’s height
advantage. Throughout the game, Buffalo switched

back and forth between three different defenses.
“They weren’t sure when they were going to get
pressure and when we were going to clop up the
middle,” Cousins noted.

Rochester got very few inside shots in the first
half because of Buffalo’s stingy defense. They got a
few more inside shots the second half, but usually
were pressured into missing. When Rochester did
find the open man, there seemed to be a lid on the
basket.

An explosion
Buffalo got a solid effort from every player.
Lilley led all scorers with 19, guard Kris Schu.n had
twelve, Hills had 11 and super-sub Gabi Gray scored
9 while plaVing about half the game. Schum also had
"
seven steals and five assists.
Buffalo trailed 16-13 with about eleven minutes
left in the first half. Then, they exploded for an 18-2
spurt to take the lead for good. Rochester whittled
the lead down to six early in the second half, but
then Lilley hit three straight buckets, SchUra swished
two outside shots and Hills and forward Dottie Holtz
picked up some inside baskets, and Buffalo broke
..
the game wide open.
The playoff selection committee will be
watching the Royals’ three games this week
tomorrow at Genesee Community College, Thursday
at St. Bonaventure and Saturday at Clark Hall
against Syracuse at 2 p.m. The game against Genesee
should be particularly interesting since both Sebum
and starting forward Pam Lerminiaux both played
for Genesee last year.

began living there foar and a half years ago.

The doctor will be available for two hours a day.

Director of University Health Services M. Luther Musselman said
the need for a doctor at Amherst had been established years ago but
nothing could be done until space was made available.“We couldn’t do
anything until we got more space,” he said. “Finally, Director of
Facilities and Planning John Telfer told me a room would be ready on
February 17*
;

'

*

According to Acting Student Association (SA) Executive Vice
Resident Jeff Lessoff, “University President Robert Ketter supported
the effort strongly and deserves much credit for the accomplishment.”
Vice-President of Health Sciences F. Carter Pannill credited Ketter.
Musselman, Telfer, and himself for the successful effort. Pannill said,
“Telfer had to make the additional space available, I;|ud to re-allocate
the already appropriated funds, and Ketter had to support the entire
effort.”

One room, nedoctor
.Tie only complete health facility at this University is located on
the Main Street Campus in Michael Hall. At this center, there are eight
Registered Nurses and four doctors servicing allergy, eye and
dermatology clinics and providing immediate attention to
approxanmteiy 11*) Main Street Campus residents. The Amherst
Campus faciHty hed only one teem and no doctor, yet serviced on an
n arc ddOO -students tivjng out.at
Amherst,” said Lessoff. “There should be at least one doctor. Even
Fleaently, it is still not known who will be the new doctor.
Muwelrnan said Earl Cantwell, a current Main Street doctor, will be the
first to serve Amherst. “For now the doctors we currently have will be
used on a rotating part-time basis for periods of one month,” he raid.
“This, in itself, is productive since 1 want all doctors to be familiar with
the Amherst facility in case of an emergency.”

Lessoff referred to the new development as an experiment,
stressing that if the facility is not used by students, the need for it wffl
be questioned and further expansion may be hampered. “Students have
to use the new doctor,” he said, “or the claim wfll be made that the
Amherst facility is no&amp;very important. Ifstudents do take advantage of
the services, expansion is a reasonable future step.”
Virtually all services currently offered at Michael Hall will be
offered at Amherst in/the future. However, students needing blood
tests and prescriptions wiB still have togo to Mpin Street.
The inconveniences for the Amhetst residents may soon be
alleviated by either an expansion program, or a relocation of Health
Services. Musselman said, “We want a large facility on Amherst.
Eventually in fact, we want the main center to be there. The majority
of students are located at that campus and therefore that’s where we
should be." He added that ten to fifteen years ago, plans called for
Health Services to be among the first to occupy space at Amherst.
“Evidently thoae plans have been changed,” he added.
Funding problem
In regard to a future facility on Amherst, Musselman said that
Health Services has been in touch with the office of Facilities Planning,
but claimed expansion plans have not been made. He mentioned that
Buffalo State College has a separate building for its facilities, which
accommodates both in and out patients. Musselman blamed funding
problems for the inadequacy of this University’s Health Services.
“No additional funding is available,” he said. “In fact, last year
appropriations were cut by the State by several thousand dollars,” he
said. Musselman added that the new doctor won’t add to the budget
costs, since one doctor left the Main Street facility last year, and no
replacement was hired.

The Clinical Psychology program here, one of
the finest in the nation, has been thrown into serious
jeopardy. With accreditation hinging on the
program’s escape from inadequate facilities on Ridge
Lea, the prospects of rennovating space in Parker
Hall on the Main Street campus now appear dim.
Administration officials determined Saturday
that the move to Parker now seems unlikely due to a
lack of funding for rehabilitation, according to
Director of Clinical Psychology Steven Tulkin.
“There is no physical structure in Parker for clinical
research or psycho-therapy,” Tulkin said. “We were
told Saturday that there is not enough money for
refurbishing the structure.”
An accreditation team from the American
Psychological Association (APA) evaluated the
program last November and deemed that a shift to
Parker would be necessary to resolve the problems of
overcrowding and isolation. The team is presently
withholding it’s report to the Association and will
not grant accreditation until some commitments
have been made by the Administration to resolve the
crippling facility problems.
According to Chairman of the Psychology
Department Kennetji Levy, the. accrediting team
wanted assurance’ from the 'Administration that
adequate facilities would be provided for the
Albert Somit
Department. “Executive Vice
wrote a letter to the team stating that the
Department would be relocated tentatively to Parker
with 30,000 square feet of space,” Levy said. “The
commitments Somit made have not yet been
followed through.”

President

Space in Parker has not yet been set aside,
according to Levy, although he is certain that it will
be found. “The problem now is that we need money
for rennovation. So far the state hasn’t been very

to our mfcietta." levy was quick to add
that administrators at this school have been
sympathetic to the department's plight.
Clinical training has been hampered because of
primitive facilities at Ridge Lea. Limited office
space, inadequate observational facilities, thin walls,
continuing isolation from the rest of the faculty, and
lack of library and cafeteria facilities have
contributed to a lowering of faculty morale and the
hesitancy of the APA to extend Ginical Psych’s
accreditation.
“There is considerable concern among faculty
members about the prospect of continuing

Prompted by deaths

Common Council keeps the
heat on
NFG,backsboycott
The Buffalo Common Council continued to
“turn the heat on” National Fuel Gas (NFG)
Tuesday by giving final backing to the Citizens’
Alliance 100-day gas bill boycott and by passing an
ordinance to require utility companies to notify the
Mayor before shutting off service to any customer.
The amendment to the City ordinance, which
would require utilities to notify the Mayor in writing
IS days before and again two to four days before
shut-off service to a customer, was passed in the
wake of the recent deaths of two elderly Buffalo
residents. Rachel L. Wallace, 72, froze to death in
her unheated apartment. Howard "Yogi”
Cunningham died from exposure in Meyer Memorial
Hospital after he was taken out of his unheated
apartment where he had been for several days. Both
had had their gas shut off after they failed to pay
their bills.
The idea behind the new ordinance is that the
Mayor could intervene on behalf of people facing
shut-offs especially elderly people not fully able to
take care of themselves if he is notified in advance.

Anti-utility
The Council also referred to the Finance
Committee a resolution by Masten Councilman

David A. Collins which would require the City to
report how much it spends for energy, including
natural gas. Collins is one of the leaders of the
boycott of NFG and has been trying to find out how
much the gas company would lose if the City

withheld payment of its gas bill.
The rhetoric in the Common Council has been
vehemently anti-utility since its members took office
in January. Tuesday the Council followed through
by approving 12-2 the resolution which asks that
Mayor James D. Griffin and Comptroller Robert E:
Whelan move to withhold payment of the city’s gas
bills.

The move by the Council is likely to be merely
symbolic because Griffin and Whelan have already
expressed their opposition to the City actually
joining the boycott. Action by both Whelan and
Griffin would be required to do so.
Councilman-at-Large Herbert L. Bellamy, who
joined Council President Pro Tempore Gerald J.
Whalen in opposing the resolution, charged that his
“colleagues are making accusations without the
facts,” and that in his dealings with NFG in the past
he has “always found them to be sympathetic and

reasonable.”

Lost weight, lost shock absorbers and a lost cause

Rocking on oF Millersport
by Mitch Gross
Staff Writer

Spectrum

George Burger, a student and an automobile
owner at this University, needs his shock absorbers
back. They were robbed by what he calls “the mine
field;” what the state calls Highway 263; and what
the street signs call Millersport Hwy. George denies
the fact that there are pot holes on Millersport.
“Those aren’t pot holes,” he reports, “those are

swimming pools.”

What Naomi Halligan lost on the Highway, she
doesn’t want back. “I lost 20 pounds on Millersport
Highway,” she informs. Naomi Halligan is a bus
driver for the Blue Bird Company and makes
frequent runs between the Main Street and Amherst
Campuses. Fellow bus driver Jane Slowniak
explained that because the buses have to make the
distance between the two campuses in 20 minutes,
they can no longer afford to avoid using the
highway.

Bottleneck
Millersport Highway belongs to the State of
New York, which is not too fond of it either. “We
hate to see a road like that,” said Norm Winkler of
the State Highway Department. It’s the worst road
we have.”
Two years ago the State was planning to repave
and widen the road by 4 feet on either side. Since
MiUersport is a major traffic bottleneck, the
Highway Department felt the road needed widening,
presumably to allow cars the room to dodge the
craters. However, many local residents opposed
widening the street and came out in great numbers
to a town council meeting to vocalize their feelings.
In the heat of the meeting, one resident yelled and

complained so fiercely that he collapsed and died in
the room. The fierce opposition of the townspeople
pushed the repaving back indefinitely. Winkler said
that a May 25 startlng daje ftas been selected fof the

Power line problems
Jim Giardion, design engineer for the Highway
Department, outlined the difficulties involved in the
reconstruction.
Materials may be scarce. The
widening of the road will require Niagara Mohawk to
tear down its power lines and then replace them at
the town of Amherst’s expense. Giardion said that
the Highway Department will have trouble meeting
its May 25 starting date because of funding
problems.

Acting Executive Vice President Jeff Lessoff of
the Student Association, allied with the New York
Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) intends
to begin circulating petitions among students and
faculty demanding that Millersport be smoothed.
Lessoff said that the Amherst Town Supervisor,
John Sharp, had suggested including the faculty in
the petitions. Professors, Sharp claimed, are more
respected by the residents of the town. According to
Lessoff, both Sharp and State Assemblyman James
Fremming fully support the project. Lessoff hopes
to rally enough students for the next council
meeting and sway the town in the council’s decision
whether to oppose road construction.
Lessoff claimed that the residents of the Grover
Cleveland Housing Development are the main
opponents. It was their commanding turnout that
swayed the council two years ago, he said.
“It’s annoying,” he commented, “that a
hundred or so people can stop an improvement that
would benefit so many other people.”
Why are the residents so adamantly against what
appears to be a much-needed improvement? They

claim it will increase neighborhood noise, reckless
driving and may make the area a more dangerous
place to

live.

The University harbors a deeper resentment
than students’ concern for ball joints and hubcaps.
MiUersport not only runs right over the site of the
new gymnasium, but also bisects Lake LaSalle.

Clinical Psych

Breaking the ban mhkh separated theprison from the outside worM

Seven yean ago

Attica m retrospect
die outside looking
by Duay Pinker
Campus Editor

Seven years ago in September of 1971, the secluded, isolated
captive world of the Attica State Correctional Facility broke the bars
that separate it from the outside world when prisoners rioted and took
control of the maximum security prison. 43 people were killed and
many of the 2300 prisoners were gassed, trampled, stomped, and
beaten when state troopers, guards, and police officials quelled the
uprising.
The four day seige brought forth previously undisclosed living
conditions of the hidden world. Overcrowding, poor health care,

raciaim. inadequate educational services, and disgusting food were all

included in the striking prisoners’ lists of demands.
Although the Attica State Prison lettering is visible as a reminder
of the far past, prisoners are now known as inmates and guards as
correction officers. Plastic surgery has eliminated some of the scars, but
how much has changed behind the 30 foot, endlessly reaching,
concrete walls?
Upon entering the prison, the walls take on new heights. The
world is suddenly tangible as the armed watchtowers make one feel as
if he is trapped in a slide, under the eye of a microscope. Tire colors of
green and grey, distinguishing inmates and guards respectively,
become
categoric rather than aesthetic. Most importantly, the outside is
still in.

Baron felt the idea was good and hoped that student
response “will be affirmative. Where else can they
exhibit their talents, especially in Ellicott? it’s their
theater and they should be allowed to use it.” One
student exclaimed, “As long as there is good
publicity, it could really work out well.” There will
be future Backpage notices in The Spectrum to
inform students when the program begins.

�College B expanding to TV
College B is sponsoring a
weekly cable television show
starting February 15, performed
and directed by students enrolled
in the course CB 351.

According to course director
Jim Paul, this is the first operation
of its type and it will expand the
limits of the classroom to the
medium. Paul said, “It will allow
die University students to interact
with the Western New York
community.”
The show will contain five
minute weekly skits shown in
series form in black and white.
Some of the skits include
“Lumpa’s Angels,” a spoof on
CharHe’s Angels,
“Geriatric
MMNnMHMMMHiMMMMMMMM

Jones” about a very old detective
like Bamaby Jones, and a take-off
on the news. Serious programs
will also be presented such as
interviews with professors, a
tentative interview of Jim Griffin,
and a possible documentary of the
train terminal. Satires about Hue
Bird Bus Company and Food
Service will be presented in a
format similar to “Saturday Night
Live.” Paul said, “The show and
course is an outlet for the
students to experiment and
develop their own talents.”
The goals for next semester,
according to Paul, are to organize
a semi-professional unit run by
students to broadcast in color and
to get volunteers to work on a
permanent basis with students.

Chimneys, et. aL

Paul is currently trying to
obtain a permanent facility in
Amherst for a TV production
studio. He is also trying to move
the studio to Fillmore 157 despite
being hampered by a limited
budget from Sub-Board I. Paul
wishes to thank the University

which provided ail the equipment

The “UB Hour’* will run 30
minutes every Wednesday night
on both international (suburb),
and currier cables. It will also be
shown in the Squire Gallery and
in Haas Lounge. Taping is done
every Tuesday night from 9-11:00

groups which opened the outdoor

in on albiftns with Alphonse
Mouzon and later with Deep

�See'Goodbye Girl'as a Valentine's Day gift
The Goodbye Girl written by Neil Simon and directed
Herbert Ross, is one of those films you would love to
love and send as a valentine. But like little Amy Carter or
Pringle's potato chips, the overall effect is one of unnatural
perfection, proving to be too good for its own good.
A New York based love story, the proverbial wit-laced
sdript opens with its heroine, Paula MacFadden, coming
home from a shopping spree with her daughter, Lucy,
Upon entering her attractively furnished apartment In a
rundown and graffitti-covered Upper West Side building,
the discovers that her lover and provider has left for
California without them. Long divorced from Lucy's actor
father, she is left with nothing but the apartment and a
small amount of savings. Bemonaing the fact that this is
the second time she has been "dumped on" by an actor,
she swears them all off and attempts to make a comeback
as a Broadway dancer. Sure enough, another actor comes
on the scene. Without informing her, Paula's lover had
sublet the apartment to a friend, Elliot, who has come
from Chicago to star in an off-off-off-Broadway
production of Richard III Of course, they share the
apartment. Everything becomes predictable from here on
in.

.

who also directed Simon's The
Sunshine Boys as well as this year's also unsatisfying The
Turning Point seems to have an eye more tuned to the
stage than to film. During the indoor sequences, especially,
I had the sensation of watching a filmed play, with the sets
looking like props on a stage as viewed from the qudience.
Yet. the ultimate blame for the film's failure to convince
and stand on its own must go to Simon. Currently being
touted as America's most prolific playwright, he has made
a name for himself writing sophisticated
situation comedy enlarged for stage and screen. The
problem here is that sit-com characters are either larger
than life, like Simon's The Odd Couple or lightweight, as
are these. The film's credibility is stretched by both
situation and reaction,

Director Ross,

Stage vs. film
Would Lucy, who is ten going on forty, really be so
calm when faced with an hysterically sobbing mother
whose lover has just walked out on the both of them? How
could Paula and Elliot afford to lavishly redecorate their
apartment on their struggling young performers' salaries?
Even the seamy sides of New York City, the mugging of

Paula by three thugs or a brawl in a Times Square strip
joint, does not ring true; both coming off as things to be
laughed at.

A vulnerable sensibility
The performances are wonderful. Marsha Mason, as
child/woman Paula, has an elfin quality which grows as she
does. She makes Paula as likeable as her skill can allow.
Lucy, instead of being portrayed as the brat she could
easily turn into, is given a vulnerable sensibility and
toughness by young Quinn Cummings in her screen debut
Richard Dreyfuss as Elliot
I save the best for last
Garfield, the serious and struggling young actor,
overweight but confident enough to declare the "body is a
temple" and loyal TM follower, is lovable. His energetic
charm leaps across the screen and through, lending the fim
its one true note of sincerity.
With Valentine's Day only a few days away, I
recommend that you go to the Como 8 Theater and see
The Goodbye Girl because, despite its faults, it is fun.
And, as Paula says to Elliot when he surprises her with a
rooftop dinner, "So kill me. I'm a sucker for romance."

The Hour Of The Dragon, by Robert E. Howard
(Berkley/Putnanw, New York, 296 pp.)
There once lived a cowboy who dreamed of duels.
Not the long face-off of the six-gun draw at high
noon, but the direct confrontation of broadswords and
"brazen vixens". The great ax of a thief and barbarian
cleaved cleanly thru the Hyborian Age to counter the
charades of greedy bureaucrats, divine right dictators,
and evil dabblers in the mystic arts. Dragons and
demons often crossed his path, also, yet he found that
worst ogres were two-legged,
the
talked quite
smoothly, and (in some cases) caressed seductively as
they prepared knives for his back. A king and a bold
traveller, his worship and way was expressed thru
unyielding action, while his "barbarian" standards
(applied to government principles without bureaucratic
impositions) created a system that would operate for
the common folk as right and direct as a thrust of his
Cimmerian steel.
The Cimmerian (barbarian, thief, king) is the
inimitable Conan. The cowboy mentioned at the
beginning is the brilliant prose writer, Robert Ervin
Howard, who created a pantheon of heroes, heroines,
and master villians.
Visual writing style
None, however, has captured the Imagination of so
many different people as the bronzed Northern giant,
Conan the Cimmerian, whose galloping adventures into
uncharted magic realms of stark human desire and
imagination have sparked a whole genre of literature
and furnished the finest graphic artists (Frazetta, Barry
Smith, Neal Adams, etc.) with a bridge to great fame
thru the media of paperbacks and comic magazines.
Howard's visual writing style spun tableaus of
Valhallan battlefields filled with epic warriors larger
than life, where sinister forces (Man and Magician)
often lurk in the flicker of the moonlight to conjure
ultimate destruction. Something to think about today,
wouldn't you say?

(1935-36), this edition features the previously
unpublished poem, "The Hour Of The Dragon", which
Howard wrote specifically for this novel.

Now available in its originally intended entirety is
Howard's only Conan novel. The Hour Of The Dragon
in a handsome hardcover edition (the only authorized
one at this time). Besides restoring the original interior
illustrations from the Weird Tales original publication

A gentle bravery
The book is a gripping drama of Conan, now ruler
of the most powerful of Western nations, Aquitonia.
The story deals with the conspiracy between jealous
despots and an evil sorceror who has been resurrected
after a thousand years to destroy the Cimmerian and
lay waste to his kingdom.
At first captured by sorcery and believed dead by
most, a long, steady struggle faces Conan as he breaks
free with the help of a slave girl named Zenobia, who
accomplishes with her honest feelings and gentle
unsung bravery what a score of wenches could not do
where Conan is concerned. Here the fight really begins,
as Conan travels the many paths of his life (one, for
example, as captain of a band of black corsairs) in a
quest to locate the key to destroying the conspiracy
and restore his kingdim. The tale, crossing miles and
scores of varied peril, is the hour of the Cimmerian's
greatest trial and a classic in the tradition of grand
Norse mythology, which is clearly a vital inspiration
here. One can imagine great Wagnerian overtures at
play.
For those who wish to observe Howard's approach
to fantasy with a science fiction touch, try Almuric
(paperbound, pub. Berkley Medallion, New York),
another example of a master writer's imagination in
spinning a cohesively thrilling tale from the agonies and
auspices of our unfolding human aspirations.
There is a barbarian in all of us, waiting to throttle
this all too unbalanced facade of “civilization''. How
will we, without war, make it work for the peace of all?
Even Conan learned the power of pen and legislation,
in the right hands, for wielding fair play. When will we

channel our "beast"?
Equally important, whose hand will hold the dials?

inventiveness of the play, one is
afforded a clear glimpse into the
thematic questions raised by the
story. What on the stage seemed
original and imaginative appears
on film too standard and cliche
ridden. The psychiatrist is envious
of the boy's passion, as he feels
trapped in a sterile and loveless

marriage.

He argues that madness has its
advantages over the normal and
dull everyday world. It seems
Shaffer is issuing forth the
"physician heal thyself" adage. He
asks us to believe that Dysert, the
shrink, is an emotional cripple,
locked into a stifling adoration of

the Greek era. However, the film's
most gripping and passionate
moments
come
when
the
"emotionless" Dysart addresses
the audience. Along with a
recurring image, the wired mask
of a horse's head, are soliloquies.
It is perhaps fitting that these

non-realistic scenes work best. In
any case, it is hard to believe that
this character is as lifeless as he is
scripted to be.
The lingering question is: why
did this boy, Alan Strang, commit
this ungodly act? What were his
motives? In this sense the story
has qualities of a detective drama,
but its mystery is handled, or
mishandled, so that one shouldn't
have much difficulty deducing the
causes. We see early that the boy's
fixation centers on horses as both
a religious and sexual symbol; one
need only take that premise a
little further to draw the correct
conclusions.
What we get then is a detailed
account of Dysart's battle to

away from the reservation, who served as guide to

of preserving the Papago culture, first in English,

publicity handout as "very moving and emotional".
Perhaps, if you understand the Papago dialect. As he

that the special form of oblivion reserved for the

by Terence P. Kenny
Spectrum Music Staff

As witnessed by those in attendance, WBFO's benefit concert cum
record hop Anarchy On The Airwaves drew a very small crowd. A
noticeable proportion of the people were local pseudo-punks in search
of cheap beer. As for our educated students, hardly any made their
presence known. The program was fun, however, blatant the exposure
of new wave, our newest genre of rock and roll.
The advertising logo was by no means covert. The safety pin ( a
generation ago it signified a new addition to the family) now deemed
the archtypal symbol of punkdom, exclaimed the intent while
simultaneously negating the purpose. First and foremost, Gary Storm
wanted to turn the people on to some new music. Too bad those that
wanted to check it out shied away because of the omnipresent punk
vibe. People are afraid of Punk Rock, expecially middle class collegians
with chronic esthetic guilt complexes. They are not ready to check
something out, and are more readily placated by the media's exposure
of the new wave.

Some people would rather know the names of all the groups than
bother listening to any of them. By employing this facade of
omniscence, they can expound their opinions without the fear that
somwbody will call their bluff. Hence we have a faction that knows all
about the Sex Pistols without ever having heard their music. They base
their opinions on what the television says and what the Voice writes.

Rotten Stone
The gargantuan effort on the media's part to surface new wave
only serves to drown it as it gropes for the breath of life. Johnny
Rotten did not need to appear on the cover of Rolling Stone to insure
his fame. Instead the magazine confronts us with their philosophy:

"Here is a person that we think you think we are interested in."
Mutual masturbation perfected; we see the pictures and the
magazine sells because of its cover. The star becomes famous and is
given ample rope to hang himself. Remember Bruce Springsteen? Oh
yea, still in the studio. Time and Newsweek in one week can do it to
you. Bruce has a lot more punk in him than many of his fans will admit
but by no means is he encompassed in what is now "new wave".
The media blitz is going on right now; people are having their
names tossed about (Elvis Costello, Patti Smith, Joey Ramone) without
having their purpose (Rock And Roll) explained. This serves to alienate
the shy rock and roller. Instead of hearing a record and wondering who
the artist is, one hears of the artist and wonders what type of music
they play.

What this all gets back to is the fear people have of new wave rock
and roll. But they are also afraid of the dark. To overcome this fear one
must create the illusion of light. Then just as everything seems normal,
turn out the light and see if they're still afraid.
The modern world

All this became very clear

to

me last Saturday night at acertain off

campus party. The usual fiends were present, some of the same Lees

that help close the CPG eight nights a week. They were ready for the
usual music and that's what they heard. Van Morrison, Motown,
Stones, et al. ad nauseum.
Just as the people were clamouring for dancing music (The Duke
had them standing) and complaining that the music was
boring and I put on some Elvis Costello, from his dynamic premiere
album, and the crowd went wild boogying their asses off. For once the
people were really dancing, not shakin' their booty in search of a
partner. When
Jonathan Richman came on the crowd went
berserk(ely); the tunes were classics a la Chuck Berry so there was no
reason focthe people not to sing along.

ended I let the Pistols rave on and the party started to cook. Finally
the floor was bending as the Ramones did "California Sun". Hardly
any of the crowd knew what they were listening to and if they did, the
dancing would have been left to the new wave freaks to sustain. When
their queries were answered, the responses were comprised of
anguished surprise, "you mean that was the Sex Pistols, wow, the Jam
sounded really good etc."
Sorry to say, the only way to get people to listen to new wave is to
keep it undercover, just as with chocolate covered ants. Don't tell them
what it is and they'll eat it up.

McCoy Tyner, Inner Voices (Milestone)
BUI Event, Alone (Again) (Fantasy)
Two statements from pianistic maestro*.
Bill Evans, the quintessential fortitude of stylistic play, brings
foreward an album of subtle daring that possesses, the waltzing
flamboyance to sweep you awares off your feet in a feeling of romantic
power. Playing the entire album on solo piano (only the second time
he's done so), he faces the potential often overlooked in the popular
ballad today. People tend to regard the performance of ballads as
derogatory because of the weakening power faced if the player has
nothing of his own to bring out the ballad's vibrant beauty. Evans, as
his career and this LP further unveils, is a Master of the Musical
Languages. From the lyrical sunshine swing he applies to Brubeck's "In
Your Own Sweet Way" to the sensations sweetly surging from "The
Touch Of Your Lips", Evans shows the articulate clarity and concise
delivery that has always brought imagination unafraid to be smilingly
optimistic for "People". To "Make Someone Happy", be yourself
oonductively. Speak softly, bold.
McCoy Tyner, master of volatile and deep velvet gentle might, has
a legacy and a pianistic touch that has always encouraged direct
communication, but his previous album. Supertrios, showed a tendency
to lay back in the studio, somethings he's never had to do whether
playing ballads, torrid sambas, or whatever. His present LP, Inner
Voices, shows this tendency far more pronounced, and to say the least,
it's distressing (Especially since many "critics" are already setting up
raves.).

Unlike most of his peerless work. Voices (for voice,horn, and'
guitar
with.piano, of course) is. fo; the most part, stiff, stammering,
and uncharacteristically uninspired. His first work with voice on Blue
-

Note's Asante. small orchestra on Blue Note's Tender Moments, and
varied colors via brass, reed, woodwind, vibes, marimba and strings on
the classics Song of the He w World, Sama Layuca, and the extremely
rich Fly With The Wind (not to mention his work on Co\trane‘t A fries
Brass on Impulse) show Tyner possessed of an uncanny orchestral
ability that contains the fire and virtuousity of "classical music" and
"jazz" with a tonal taste for colors that are virtually unmatchable (as
his liye appearances yet testify).
Why. then, is it necessary for condescension when he's already
made the distinction of making it big economically on his own
aesthetic terms with fully entertaining (and accesible, if you will)
artistry? Art should neither haw to repeat the past efforts or. to avoid
such repitition, slip into apathetic performance simply going t hrougf
motions. When a man like Tyner, who has understood this too welt and
has given, steadily, so much integrity and Low to the Music for near 20
yaars suddenly comes up with something to limiting his performing
powers to suggest the point of nadir, then the inherent suggestion
points to something drastically wrong...... with the man. the
administration, or both.
Abo disturbing; Why hasn't Milestone released more music with
Tyner's band? (apart from the appearance of a couple of members in
non-solo ensemble work hare, the Only group work has been the fine
Focal Point
a whetting of the appetite) In its two yaars, it has been
world recognized as one of the finest groups around.
I tink that Joe Ford is owed an opportunity to fully answer to the
world. Equally overdue is the end of this hopefully brief period of
McCoy Tyner's career: The man, a consummate Master, bears far finer
moments.

Adjoining Suites (RCA)
Aztec Two-Step's latest effort is a good folk-rock album that
should please not only their devoted fans but casual listeners as well.
However, in comparison with some of their earlier work, it lacks depth.
They can do better. With all this recent confusion about musicians
“growing" or becoming stagnant. I'd hesitate to label them as one or
the other. Their sound has changed somewhat over the five years
they've been recording together, but 'in the past they've had more
varied subject matter within their albums.
Adjoining Suites' major theme is love. It's tried and true, and it's
also difficult to do folky love songs in fresh new ways. Their most
successful attempts here are “I Wonder If We Tried" and "Brand New".
The latter tune incorporates a disco bass and hi-hat drum combination
into a pretty, cheery melody, and makes it one of the best selections

Student power
To the Editor.
Jay Rosen is one of the few people at this
University who can be considered a whole person.
He does not strike one as a glazed-eyed worshiper of

the 4.0, nor as a bomb throwing son of the sixties.
Rosen is trying to form a reality for the good of all.
His ideals are not idealistic The facts that he
reveals in the “Student power crisis” should open
the eyes of all the apathetic undergraduates at UB.
Rosen’s goals should be the goals of every student at
this University with half a brain.
Our education is not only the fight to obtain a
diploma. The University should be part of the world
as a whole. The students should function as a
political, social, educational and administrative
force, lire students must take hold of their own

futures.
If the students become a strong force in as many
ways as possible, it will force the administration to
sit up and work for or against us in some way (more
than it is doing now).
Rosen believes that the SA should take on the
burden, and this is very true. The SA is one way the
students can put pressure on the administrators of
this University. But if each student does his part
within or outside of the system, a solution can be
reached.
A motivation is the biggest problem. Students
must wake up and take hold of their educational
future. Do not let them take away our important
rights (i.e.. the four course load).

Freeing

■VT'

oneself

To the Editor.

I support Clearwater’s views (Guest Opinion,
The Spectrum, Feb. I, 1978) on liberation from the
stereotype monogamous relationships. The author
seems somewhat hesitant when saying, “For certain
periods of time, it may be the right thing. It may
offer a familiar context, a safe, secure
environment.. .” As I think, a deep relationship
with one individual can flourish together with other
relationships and so one doesn’t , have to be
monogamous for certain period of time to win the
confidence and secure environment with one
individual. If one were to do that then he or she
would end up in the same problems faced by those
who commit themselves to monogamy.
We also have to recognize the role of social and
economic institutions on the issue. A few decades
ago the idea would have been more of academic
interest (and it still would be in many parts of the
world) than a viable proposition. The prosperity and
individual freedom brought about by technological
progress are instrumental in paving the foundation
for freedom in this direction. Unlike some other
liberation movements this involves freeing oneself
from oneself.
There are many who would say that monogamy
is yery natural because human beings by nature are
possessive. After all the conditioning and inculcation
we have been through it is very hard to say what is
natural. The question/is very similar to the one
which is often raised in connection with human
sexuality. Why can’t we just forget about what
experts say and just act natural. Do we or can we act
natural? No. And so we have to investigate and learn
about it. We can’t get too many answers by studying
primates either in this area. Because anthropologists
tell us that sexual behaviour is something that has
dramatically changed in the course of human
evolution, which in part is evidenced by the
disproportionate growth of human sexual organs as
compared to primates.
Contrary to the advice of Clearwater I would
advise caution to my readers about putting the idea
to practice. I think the issue is much more subtle and
needs serious thinking on the part of the individual.
One should be able to envision various possible
situations which would arise a|L a result of
non-raonogamous (I prefer this term as compared to
‘polygamous’ due to its usual connotation; of
one-too-many) behaviour on the part of the
individual and his (or her) partner and its
consequences. Some restrain and serious thinking
might save the trauma of jealousy and broken-heart.
,

Consultants a must
To the Editor.

I strongly support the recommendations made
by Jay Rosen in Monday’s “Exile on Main Street.”
There is indeed a need for professional expertise in
SA in order for it to function effectively. The
dormant . construction at Amherst Campus
demonstrates this need. One of the main priorities of
the current SA administration was to speed up
Amherst construction. However, the leaders were at
a severe disadvantage. The Division of Budget has
many well-trained technocrats who can effectively
doubletalk any student government leader from any
in the state.
I, too, was at the Faculty Senate meeting when
Dictator Reichert laughed at students attempting to
point out that three credit/three contact hours really
means a five course load! I still can remember
Reichert and his cohorts emphatically denying this
(reminding me very much of a numerous amount of
Nixonian denials). Student government leaders were
unable to effectively present their arguments with
sufficient written documentation. This University
runs in reality on paper, and actually no where else.
Dictator Reichart ignored Dennis Delia that day,
when Delia is supposedly the one student whose
opinion should be listened to. It was one month later
when I had the opportunity to participate in the
Undergraduate
Political Science Department’s
Review Committee as one of the two token student
representatives. At this meeting all Faculty agreed
that what was to be discussed was the Five Course
Load\ Clearly contradicting Dictator Reichert.
Yet the most compelling reason I have for
supporting Rosen’s proposal to hire professional

Declaration

of bankruptcy

To the Editor.
The relationship between the fiscal problems of
New York City and New York State is a subject of
concern to anyone associated with UB. The article
on The Spectrum front page of February 6, 1978
states that, according to Mr. Lanford of SUCF, the
fiscal problems of New York City pulled the State of
New York into financial difficulties. This is not true.
The financial problems of New York State are
caused, in large part, by an ill-advised and
Hi-conceived effort by certain politicians and

consultants is that I am convinced that it will work.
My strong conviction that professional consultants
will aid SA officials is based upon my position as
Chairperson of the Local Board of Directors of the
New York Public Interest Research Group here at
UB.

One can trace the rapid rise and growth of
NYPIRG from an idea initiated by four students in a
room at Syracuse University just a few short years
ago, to an organization representing students from
across the state, employing over 80 professional staff
lawyers, community organizers, staff scientists,
lobbyists and project coordinators. This staff has
enabled students to become the most effective
public interest citizen action group in New York
State. It has put NYPIRG in a position where it can
assert itself and accomplish its stated goals.
The primary reason that NYPIRG is able to do
so is that the students have hired professional,
qualified consultants to overcome the problems of
student apathy, lack of experience of student
leaders, lack of knowledge, lack of leadership
continuity from year to year and irresponsible
students. These are problems common to both SA
and NYPIRG. NYPIRG has chosen to overcome
diem by hiring professional consultants; Student
Association should follow this example.
Although hiring consultants for SA seems like a
radical idea, it is not. It is an intelligent proposal,
proven by NYPIRG to be effective and should be
strongly considered.
I urge all students to contact SA officials and
demand that they hire professional consultants.

business and labor leaders to avoid the bankruptcy
of New York City. In fact, there is no evidence that

a bankruptcy of New York City would have had
nearly the effect on the state’s finances that the
recent massive transfers of funds to the city have
had. A strong case can be made that in 1975, and
again today, a formal declaration of bankruptcy by
New York City is not only the most efficient but
also the fairest way of handling the problem.

Form a coalition
To the Editor.
You Are Not Alone!
Dear Mr. Daniel T. Quider:
I can hardly describe to you the profundity of
my fellow-feeling at seeing you described on the
front page'of The Spectrum (3 February 1978) as
the Buffalo City “Council’s Lone Rcpuglican.’’
Believe me, I know how difficult it is expressing
opinions about “extreme actions” when you form a
minority of one
not only locally, but

internationally. But everything works dialectically,
you see. As the world’s only Demobrat, I realized
from the start that the only way to preserve my
integrity was to keep my political affiliation totally
secret. If you did the same, who blew the lid? Was it,
perhaps, an act of compassion like mine at this very
moment. If so, do let’s work together in the future
form a coalition, maybe?

Editor’s note: A sudden interest in issues vital to
the University and in Guest Opinions appearing in
these editorial pages, plus the usual assortment of
things written, some sane and interesting and others
insane and more interesting, has prompted an
overwhelming number of I.etiers to the Editor.
As many of these letters as possible are being
printed, but some will have to waif. In feet, some
will not be printed at all, due to certain legal
constraints this column faces. All letters most be
signed with names, real names, and not with initials,
names of high government officials, movie stars, and
baseball players, nor with “committee for .,** or
“commuters for ..or “squirrels against.or
“wankers united for
The validity of all questionable names and
letters are checked out against computer lists. This
semester, it seems, two Letters to the Editor column
should exist, one entitled “Real Letters" sad the
other “Fake Letters," but such a thing, funny as it
would be, will never come to pass. As usual, those
persons wishing to remain anonymous need only sign
their real names and underneath, “Please withhold
name.”
S
This is not an authoritarian measure, though it
may appear as such. The people who write such
suprising and shocking things should have the sense
and guts to sign them. Otherwise, they are not worth
leading or writing.
Thank you very much.

Bulls end their losing streak
by Ron Baron

RARI still overcrowded

Assistant Sports Editor

Esposito: 2 gym
credits possible
demand for physical education courses and the
requirement for two gym credits can be met according to Chairman
of the Department of Recreation, Athletics and Related instruction
(RARI) Sal Esposito. Esposito claimed his department could cope
with the great demand for RARI courses in response to an article in
The Spectrum which quoted a source to the contrary.
Esposito described the controversy surrounding the feasibility
of the mandatory two credit hour requirement of physical
education as “an illusion of a problem.” He attributed the source of
the dispute to “some erroneous conclusions on my part and by the
Department.”
Esposito said because only 50 per cent of freshmen here
eventually graduate from this University, the physical education
requirement can be met. He claimed there is no reason why every
student completing four years of school here could not complete a
two credit requirement.
The

No good
Esposito felt strongly about the mandatory requirement saying,
“It teaches skills that will help us better enjoy our leisure time. We
all have a need of recreation. It is the one thing that is common to
everyone.”
Although RARI has had to make due with a less than desirable
situation, Esposito doesn’t see any problem with overcrowding. He
claimed there are a few physical education courses which have not
been filled this semester.
At the heart of the problem is the uncertain future of the two
phases of the new gymnasium complex to be built on the Amherst
Campus. Construction and design problems have pushed the
groundbreaking of Phase I of the gym (a 10,000 seat fieldhouse) to
Spring 1979 at the earliest.
Esposito said he anticipates no barriers to be overcome before
the new gym construction can begin, but he cautioned,
“Construction cannot begin until Millersport Highway is re-routed

and DOB releases money for construction.”

Sam Pellom’s two free throws

THE SECOND EVENT OF ITS

should enforce the same set of rules, so the team
that plays better will come out on top.

Assistant Sports Editor

On December 9th, the basketball Royals lost a
controversial game to St. Lawrence, 50-47. With 48
seconds remaining and the score knotted at 47, St.
Lawrence got the ball up court quickly and Sharon
Duffy went up for a layup. Buffalo center Janet
LiUey, realizing that she had been beaten, called to
her teammates for help. Duffy scored the goal, and
the official called a technical foul on LiUey for
yelling at the St. Lawrence shooter, terming it a
“flagrant foul.” Duffy converted the free throw, and
St. Lawrence retained possession for the remaining
seconds.
When Royals’ coach Liz Cousins questioned the
call, the official showed her a hand written
interpretation of the rule in her rule book. Cousins
was angry that the referee had relied on her own
interpretation of the rule rather than an official one.

The Basketball Royals were routed for the second consecutive
time Tuesday, suffering a 78-50 loss to Big Four rival Buffalo State.
The defeat, which followed a 72-50 loss to Niagara, dropped the team’s
record to 7-5.
UB got behind early and stayed there as the Bengalettes dominated
the backboards and controlled the game. Though 6’2” Marj Jakiel saw
only limited duty because of an ankle injury, Buffalo State still held a
20-8 first half rebounding edge. Buffalo State forward Darlene Pearson
rolled up 16 first half points on her way to a game high 24.
The Bengalettes played tough defense and forced UB into some
long shots. The Royals failed to establish an inside game, which also
plagued them against Niagara.
Royals’ center Janet Lilky was ridden with foul trouble again and
Buffalo 'coach Liz Cousins was forced to go to her tjuee guard offense
to compensate. “1 don’t have much height,” said Cousins. “That’s all I
have.”

&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;

As a general test of the administrative process,
the committee examined the specific topic of
allocation and reallocation of faculty positions, or
“lines.” The committee thus hoped to get a oyer-all
picture of the process of administering this
University.

The Administration will have to center its
response around a number of serious problems
1
unCbvered by the committee;''
One is the “significant differences” in the
apportioning of faculty lines between the Health
Sciences sector and the remainder of the University,
called the “core campus.” Officials in the Health
Sciences reportedly feel confident that if their
faculty lines are vacated, administrators will support
the replacement of those lines.
In contrast, core campus officials preceive that
all vacated faculty positions are seized by the
administration, and that replacements must be
fought for. Justification “seems to be constantly
required” for retaining faculty positions once they
are vacated, the report states.
This
inconsistency allows Health Science
officials to devote more time to problems of
operations and support than their core campus
counterparts, the report says. Ira Cohen, Chairman
of the committee, said “There does not seem to be
great
concern about faculty lines in Health
Sciences.”
'

With this thinly veiled chiding, a Faculty Senate
Committee wound down its sharply critical report
evaluating the University administration.
The Ad-Hoc Committee 'on Administrative
Evaluation presented its report to the Faculty Senate
in April of 1977. The report, a culmination of 23
interviews with administrators at various levels,
details a host of far reaching problems within the
Administration including poor information flow, an
insular and defensive administrative stance and
inconsistent, “capricious” decision making.
The report, meant to provide the faculty with a
clear view of the administrative process, portrays the
administration as too often working “behind closed
doors.” It reads: “The central administration is
viewed as purposefully avoiding public disclosure of
priorities. The upper-level administration is not

P*ge two. The Spectrum Wednesday, 8 February 1978
.

Groundbreaking for Buffalo’s $336 million
light Rail Rapid Transit System is planned for the
fall of this year. This was disclosed at a symposium
Thursday night entitled The Buffalo Rapid Transit
System which was sponsored by the College of

Urban Studies.
Niagara Frontier Transit Authority (NFTA)
spokesman Daniel Hoyt placed the estimated date of
completion of the subway system at mid-1983.
Metrorail will extend 6.4 miles from Memorial
Auditorium on Main Street to this University’s Main
Street Campus. Plans include subsequent extensions
to the Amherst Campus and Tonswand a areas.
Hoyt explained that the economic benefits of
the subway system are expected to be a real shot in
the arm to economically depressed Buffalo. The
initial federal construction money is expected to
have a multiplicative effect as it recirculates through
the local economy, Hoyt said. Construction and
maintenance of the system should also generate
much needed jobs.

Eventually, the City of Buffalo plans to
permanently close Main Street to vehicular traffic
from Tupper Street to Church Street (the south end
of the Main Place Mall). The Mall will function as an
open plaza permitting only pedestrians, metro trains
and emergency vehicles. It will attempt to provide a
more attractive business area, conducive to incoming
business and private economic development. This
attractive business area will escalate real estate value
and increase the City’s tax base, suggested Hoyt.
The selling point of the system to new
customers was summed by Hoyt as “speed,
efficiency and safety.” The subway system is
predicted to cut travel time along the route from an
extremely variable one hour and 12 minutes, to an
average of 17 minutes per ride. Ample security
precautions are assured to guarantee round-the-clock
“ridability.” In addition, a number of innovative
measures are being taken to piovide for handicapped
and disabled persons, stated Hoyt.

Free transfer
NFTA hopes to make the system accessible and
attractive to persons presently using private means of
transportation. “Metrorail will be combined with the

“not shared
uniformly” across the University and “becomes
greatly distorted as it moves from the President’s
Office on down the system,” the report reads.
More specifically, the report claims that
department chairmen work with “a remarkably poor
information base” and often have no idea precisely
where and how decisions are made.
Lower levels of the administration, such as
department heads, hold back inofmration from
higher-ups. Cohen explained, “The problem of
information is not just ones that run down, it also
runs upward." As an example, Cohen said that a
department chairman might withhold news of a
faculty member leaving until he has a high-regarded
replacement in line. The information available to
upper ranking decision-makers is thus “distorted”
the report states.

According to Cohen, the most common concern
expressed
the
interviews with various
in
administrators revolved
around
“capricious"
decision-making, meaning that personal relationships
colored the results.
It was felt that decisions on faculty lines were
often based on the particular relationship between
the higher-level administrators and the department
chairmen, rather than something “more stable and
steady.”
Significantly, this charge of a “capricious”
decision process came from those who had milked
the system to their advantage as well as from those
who had bpen victimized.
Cohen remarked, “If a person is in good, or has
a good personal relationship, you get certain things
out of it. We got this from both sides, good and
bed.”
The committee illuminated a concern for “the
abscence of trust” in the process of allocating lines,

Upon completion, the report was presented to
the Faculty Senate, where reaction was “mixed,”
according to Cohen. He said that some senators felt
the committee’s observations were too general and
that some administrative action should have been
called for.
The committee’s only formal recommendations
were that the report be forwarded for discussion

Student living quarters to
be occupied by Atbro Dept.
by Beth Randell
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Space now occupied by students in Spaulding
Quad of the Ellicott Complex will be taken over in
September, 1978, by the Anthropology Department,
despite a projected general increase in demand for
dormitory housing.

-•

The Anthropology Department is expected to
move into buildings four and five in Spaulding if
sufficient funds for cold rooms, physical labs and
resource areas are available. Only building seven will
remain residential.
Forty of the 86 beds in building seven are
presently being occupied. Bedspace in buildings four
and five, totalling 136 places, is at this time being
used to full capacity. Though no lack of on-campus
housing currently exists, the annual increase in
demand for space will cause future problems for
students wishing to live in the dormitories.
The move of the Anthropology Department into
Spaulding Quad will result in a net loss of 90 beds,
according to Director of Housing Madison Boyce.

“We will have more students requesting bedspace
than we have available as buildings four and five
become academic,” he said. “Thus an inconvience to
students will be caused.”

Housing need increase
Boyce
contended that the problem is
unavoidable, saying, “There is nothing we can do.
The Office of Facilities Planning and that of Dr.
Ketter tell Housing what to do. We are told what
space is available and then we house students.”
The number of students seeking to be housed on
campus
next September is not yet known.
“Admissions and Records can not tell us yet how
mgny students will need housing because at this
stage the figures are still wishy-washy," Boyce
continued.
The past four years have seen an increase in
students needing housing and the trend is expected
to continue. Thus, it can be anticipated aht the
accommodation of a certain number of students will
be a problem come next September.
The only people who get hurt are those who
make contact with Housing too late in the summer,
according to Boyce. These particular students either
get accepted to the University in the latter part of
the summer or simply make late contact with
Housing and are unable to be accomodated.
Those students who are accepted at the
University late in the summer are put on a waiting
list, if no housing space exists for them. “These
students can sit tight and hope that Housing will
have enough ‘no shows’ to accomodate them,” siad
Boyce, “or can look for off-campus housing.” (No
shows are those students who pay deposit on rooms
and do not show up to claim them. When it is
confirmed that they will not show, the Housing
Office immediately fills their rooms.)

Approved by IRC
i
Students still seeking space in September will be
placed on a temporary basis in rooms already filled
beyond capacity until all “no shows” have been
tabulated, explained Boyce. At that time, students
will be switched into other rooms.
This plan has been approved by Inter Residence
Council (IRC). President of IRC Daniel Kinley stated
that he was forced to approve this plan because of
Dr. Ketter’s decision to move the Anthropology
Department into Spaulding. According to Kinley, a
dorm forum will be held on Thursday at which
Madison Boyce is expected to appear. All housing
gripes will be discussed there and a petition will be
passed around, “to let the University know we don’t

like what they’re doing,” Kinley stated.

Temporary tripling of double rooms and the like
will work differently than it has in the past,
according to Kinley. Students will know, before they
sign up for a particular room, which rooms will be
filled beyond capacity. Depending on lottery
numbers, students may or may not end up in
overloaded living space. This would quite obviously
have the greatest effect on freshman students, who
do not participate in the lottery.

Relocation of departments
This projected loss of housing space stems from
the vacating of the Ridge Lea Campus. Mandatory
budget cutbacks are forcing the University to plan
for the phase out of all space being leased at Ridge
Lea. “The University has no choice but to consider
relocation of departments now housed at that
Campus,” said Assistant to the Vice President for
Faiclities Planning Albert Dahlberg.
The decision to relocate Ridge Lea was made by
SUNY officials in Albany when they visited this
University in November, 1976.
Which departments were going to be relocated
and to where was decided after examining many
factors, including time frame, the buildings to be
accepted back by the landlord of the Ridge Lea
property, and the cost of renovating space for

different departments.
Those departments able to be relocated most
quickly were Sociology and Political Science, both
of which were placed in Spaulding Quad.
The landlord of the Ridge Lea property would
accept back only those buildings he believed could

be rented out again most easily. The University
could not afford to give him back all of the buildings
he wanted because of the renovation costs involved
in relocating certain departments.

Questionable scheduling
The Psychology Department, for example,
required special facilities which are particularly
expensive to develop. To move this department out
of Ridge Lea the University would have been forced
to hire an outside staff of contractors, which it could
do at that time. At some future time
the Psychology Department will be moved to the
Main Street Campus.
Since problems would be met in moving certain
departments out of Ridge Lea, the landlord agreed
to take back those buildings which could be vacated
not afford to

most quickly.

Plans are being made to move all departments
from the Ridge Lea Campus by August, 1982
“Since a lack of funds for renovation exists, it is not
known whether the University can adhere to this
schedule,” said Dahlberg.
“The matter of moving academic departments
to the Ellicott Complex is not a new issue,” he
continued. “It has been in the planning for a long
time and the University knew that housing would be
affected.”
has
“Housing
been involved from the
beginning,” sard Dahlberg, “since officials were
present at the meetings where these decisions were
being made. It’s not that they weren’t aware. They
were. They knew this over a year ago.”
Vice President for Finance and Management
Leonard Snyder was not available for comment, nor
was Assistant Vice President and Controller of
Finance and Management William Baumer.
Dahlberg explained that it is hard to predict
how long the situation of using dormitory space for
housing academic departments will exist. “There is
no intention of leaving the departments there on a
permanent basis,” he said. “It is only a temporary
kind of arrangement.”

Students still waiting
for last term’s grades
by Gary Cutenstein
Spectrum Staff Writer

Approximately 2000 students have yet to receive grade reports
from last semester because faculty have been delinquent in submitting
grades to Admissions and Records (A&amp;R), according to Assistant
Director of Records Cardlyn Haensly.
AAR has sent a list of University instructors who have failed to
submit student grades from last semester to Assistant to the Present
Ronald Stein. The several page list includes the names, courses and the
number of students affected.
“This is a serious and major problem. That is why President Ketter
requested the list from Admissions and Records,” said Stein. As of
January 31, seven percent of the students still had incomplete
transcripts, though the date for handing in grades was December 28,
Instructors are given four days from the last day of finals to send
their grades to AAR The grades are then processed overnight and sent
to students. Only 1500 grade reports were sent to students by the
targeted mailing date. All grades for a student must be in before a
report can be processed. It took until January 13 for the majority of
grades to be mailed, more than two weeks after the official deadline,
according to Haensly. “On January 23, all grade reports, finished or
not, are forced out of the computer and mailed,” she said.
Faculty Senate Chairman Jonathan Reichert called the situation
“inexcusable.”
Teachers should have a contractual and moral obligation to get
grades in on time. The chairmen of departments should put pressure on
faculty to see that this problem is alleviated, Reichert said. “I have no
sympathy for faculty who have not met with the deadline; they have
plenty of time for grades.”
Student Association (SA) officials complained about the late
grades in a meeting with Ketter. “As it stands now, SA’s position is
that “we will take as much and as harsh action as possible against
professors who hand in late grades,” said SA President Dennis Delia.
“SA has requested that merit money be held back.” Merity money,
according to Reichert, is a pool of money given to faculty for
outstanding work, but there isn’t much and not many people are given
it. It isn't a good lever because it is possible that the people who aren’t
handing grades in on time wouldn’t receive money anyway,” Reichert
said.

Delia is considering bringing before the SA Executive Committee
the possibility of turning in late grades.
Reichert is concerned about pointing fingers at innocent
instructors that are on the list due to bureaucratic faults. “1 would not
object to seeing a list that was carefully checked, published. Public
embarrassment is a start,” said Reichert, who would not provide The
Spectrum with a copy of the list.
Although SA does not have access to the list, Director of
Academic Affairs Bob Sinkewicz said, “Such a list should be made

public on the students’ behalf in order to eliminate this chronic
problem of late grade reports.”
“Only one person in our department had that problem and the
issue has now been resolved,” said Dean of the School of Management
Joseph Alluto. Alluto excused the professor, saying, “Class sizes are
too large to give essays. This professor decided to give essays and take
the time he felt it requires to grade them. A&amp;R found this excuse
unacceptable.”
Any students who have problems with grades should see the staff

A 1966 audit mandated that

According to Hosie, the FSA
Board would have to make the
decision to go back to a

Stony
Brook, which changed its policy
this year, is the only other school
that does not have a mandatory
program of some sort. Both Hosie
and
Bozek
volunteered
a
suggestion that, if it were decided
to go back to a mandatory
contract system, might make the
pill easier for the student
population to swallow. That
would be a system similar to that
of Buffalo State College, an
“option” program in which
students are only required to
spend a certain amount of money
at Food Service operation.
Closing operations
Another possibility, said Hosie,
is that he might be forced to close
some of his operations. If forced
to pay for utilities, he “might be
encouraged to move out of certain
eating areas" lowering utility
costs, and consequently, causing
some crowding.
At the' moment, the Food

Joseph Sorrentino, an ex-street gang hood, now referee in juvenille
court and a municipal court judge pro tern in Los Angeles, will
speak in Squire Hall's Fillmore Room on February 9 at 8 p.m.
Sorrentino, who has been called "the greatest juvenille judge in the
country" by F. Lee Bailey, is sponsored by Speakers Bureau. The
son of a street deaner, Sorrentino grew up in Brooklyn, was a
member of a street gang and was sent to a reformatory at age
fourteen. He said, "At night I was a 'Condor.' I'd put on a
shimmering satinette jacket and strut down the street with 50
Condors and 50 Condorettes. It was like stepping into a comic
book; an exhilirating experience."
Sorrentino states that the murder of hit idol, “our gangleader."
caused hit turnaround. After going to jail at 16, and receiving a
discharge from the Marines at 18, Sorrentino did an "aboutface."
He began attending night school and eventually graduated from
University of California and Harvard Law. He has become a
crusader for juvenille rights and has written an autobiography.
Tickets are available at the Ticket Office in Squire Hall and are free
to students.

�Aluminum recycling
plan considered by
IRCB operations
by Auram Abramowitz
Spectrum Staff Writer
The New York State Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRO)
has agreed to compromise its efforts to institute returnable soft drink
bottles at Inter-Residence Council Business (IRCB) stores in favor of a
program to recycle aluminum soda cans. Nevertheless, NYPIRG and
IRCB disagree on how the recycling program should be implemented.
NYPIRG lobbyist for Mandatory Deposit Legislation, Larry
Schillinger proposed a plan for stamping cans to identify them as
returnables. A five cent deposit would be added to the current soft
drink price of 30 cents which would be refunded when the can is
returned to an IRCB store.
Schillinger said that the returned cans would be crushed, stored,
and then sold to an aluminum recycling company such as RJ.
Reynolds. “The savings would be threefold,” said Schillinger, “First,
the University litter problem would be somewhat alleviated. Second, a
valuable resource would be recycled. Finally, the money IRCB would
receive for the aluminum could be used to hold down prices.”

IRCB Business Manager Harvey Reiss called for a voluntary
recycling program. “Outside each store would be one or two barrels
where students would voluntarily deposit their cans,” said Reiss. “An
organization such as NYP1RG or CAC could contract a company such
as R.J. Reynolds to cart the cans away.”
Storage problems
Reiss claimed there would be a problem of storing the returned
cans. “No one would clean the cans, and when stored, the sugar at the
bottom would attract ants and roaches.” Frequent pick-ups would be
necessary to relieve the stotage problem, according to Reiss. Large scale

would

be required

economical.
Other problems, such as the revision of accounting procedures,
long lines to return cans which would interrupt business, and
competition with Food Service machines which charge only 30 cents,
would probably occur according to Reiss. “This would hurt the sales of
our largest selling item,” he said. Nevertheless, Reiss asserted, that the
idea of instituting a deposit on cans is viable and the problems could be
worked out.
Schillinger maintained that a recycling program is not a final
solution. He said he is sympathetic to IRCB’s claim of lack of space to
store returnable
bottles. Therefore, he said the University
administration, and in particular, the Office of Facilities and Planning
should be urged to provide IRCB with needed storage space. “In the
meantime, NYPIRG has offered a very viable solution to the solid
waste and
litter problem,” Schillinger said. “IRCB has the
responsibility to the students and the community to investigate the
feasibility of the plan, and not to do so is a flagrant disregard for the
concerns of the students and the community

Nursing mothers beware

Chocolate has its hazards
A recent study conducted by the School of
Pharmacy here has revealed that chocolate may
cause dangerous side effects in nursing mothers’
milk. The research data was gathered by doctors
Beth H. Resman, H. Peter Blumenthal and William
J. Jusko and was reported in the Journal of
Pediatrics.
The study focused on the presence of
theobromine in the breast milk of nursing mothers.
The research required six local nursing mothers to
avoid caffeine for one day before the study while
fasting the night before. The day of the study, the
women consumed four ounces of milk chocolate.
Subsequently, their blood, saliva, and breast milk
were tested at set intervals.
Theobromine, which has the same effect as
caffeine, acts as a stimulant to the centra) nervous
system and heart muscle. This chemical, which is
abundant in chocolate may be responsible for
problems such as diarrhea, constipation, eczema
and irritability in the infants of nursing mothers,
the study reported.

Higher risk
Jusko, who is Professor of Pharmaceutics at
this University and the principal investigator for

this study, reported that a higher risk of illness to
infants is likely when mothers consume large
amounts of chocolate. “It’s only those women who
eat
excessive
quantities
or eat chocolate
consistently over a long period of time where the
body accumulates theobromine, that side effects
are likely to occur with nursing,” he

said.
Some infants were found to be more sensitive
to theobromine than others. Also, women who eat
large doses of chocolate during a three-hour time
span

create a build-up of the chemical in their

bodies and in their breast milk.
Jusko added, “The study was not entirely
conclusive due to ethical and other restrictions
involving the direct experimentation of infants.”
Jusko estimated that about one percent of the
chocolate consumed by the mother pass through to
her infant.
Because theobromine is similar to caffeine and
theophylline, which are metabolized slowly m an
infant, “even a small percentage passed on to an
infant could cause previously cited problems,
especially if the mother ate a large amount of
chocolate and the child was particularly sensitive
to theobromine,” Jusko added.

Califano takes measures to decrease smoking
by Bruce Jenkiiu
Spectrum

Staff Writer

“Slow motion suicide."
With this sobering characterization of tobacco
addiction, Joseph Califano, Secretary of the Department
of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW) has christened a
$23 million media-intensive campaign against smoking.
Califano, himself a former smoker, will oversee a
four-headed program, whose main thrust will be the
dissemination of the overshelming scientific evidence
against smoking. This new campaign will dwarf the
government’s Atlanta-based clearinghouse program which
distributes information on the dangers of smoking, and
was funded at $1 million.
The first and most important aspect of the program is
education. Although the percentage of men who smoke
has decreased from over 50% in 1964 to 39% today, the
percentage of female teenage smokers has almost doubled.
On the west coast, one out of every five 12 year olds
smoke. As the world’s largest consumer of tobacco
products, Americans last year purchased 626 billion
cigarettes.
Smoking has become a major source of illness and
disease in this country. Last year smoking was seen as the
primary factor in 220,000 deaths from heart disease;
78,000 lung cancer deaths; 22,000 deaths from other
forms of cancer, including a doubled rate of bladder
cancers ki«nokers; and 85% of the deaths from bronchitis,emphysema and other' respiratory ailments. These facts

provided by the Medical establishment represent only a
few pages from the scientific deathbook concerning
smoking.
TV cooperation
Although the last 14 years have seen an increase in
public awareness about the dangers of smoking, the public
has clearly remained indifferent. This is why the main
thrust of HEWs program will focus on education,
specifically directed toward those who haven’t taken up
the smoking habit.
Secretary Califano plans to ask the chairmen of
television’s major networks to increase their anti-smoking
propaganda. Additionally, he will urge the chief school
officers in all 50 states to develop comprehensive health
education programs dealing with the dangers of smoking.
Increased funding for studies to determine the motivation
behind teenage smoking have been allocated. New
materials and techniques are to be disbursed to aid those
who wish to kick the habit. Finally, all other types of
media will be employed to try and keep Americans,
especially youths, from smoking.

L_

where health hazards already exist, such as in the asbestos
industry.
Together with the Federal Trade Commission, HEW
will consider recommendations to strengthen warnings on
cigarette packages and advertising. Included in the
advertising would be warnings to individuals for whom
smoking poses an even greater danger such as women who
take the Pill. Medical records indicate that these women
risk a greater chance of heart attacks if they smoke.
The third portion of the program deals with monetary
incentives, to kick the habit, including;
a general increase in the Federal exise tax on
cigarettes which has remained at 8 cents since 1951.
a higher tax on cigarettes that have higher levels of
tar and nicotine.
increased rates of health, fire and life insurance
premiums for smokers as opposed to discounts for
non-smokers.
The fourth part of the program consists of expanded,
comprehensive research into the already vast compendium
on smoking and health.
But can HEW’s endeavors succeed?
The program currently sidesteps the Department of
Agriculture’s $80 million in yearly subsidies to tobacco
farmers. Meanwhile, legislators from such states as
Kentucky and North Carolina have reacted hostily to the
program because a large portion of their state’s economy
hinges on the tobacco crop. However, HEW claims to be
more concerned with the physical health of the population
than the economic well being of the tobacco industry.

(SA) President Dennis Delia and
dove into the bureaucratic ocean of Albany on
Friday,. they hoped to gain commitments from legislative officials
vis-a-vis construction funds for the Amherst Campus, to impress upon
them the plethora of problems that have beset this University due to
the split in campuses, and, at the very least, to do some eye opening
concerning the general state of this "University'on Wheels." And when
the junket was completed, indeed some eyes had been opened and
some insight gained as to why the once heralded "Berekley of the
East" remains almost barren. Those eyes however, happen to be our
own.
One meeting with top officials from the Division of the Budget
(DOB), the fiscal arm of the Executive Branch of the State most
responsible for withholding State University construction funds,
revealed the total lack of understanding and concern that they have for
students In general and this University in particular. Top DOB
representative Paul Villette explained that he couldn'tunderstand how
students here could want buildings and not expect tuition hikes. Said
Villette: "You can't have ybur cake and eat it too."
Cake? Amherst remains GO percent incomplete, the split between
campuses necessitates endless busing, student groups are isolated,
departments are threatened with losses of accredidation and when a
respected, independent committee of scholars pointed to a
"deterioration of University life'' here, the Administration cited the
split campuses as the primary cause.
Pleas to the State University Construction Fund (SUCF) heads
were equally frustrating. Delia charged that the politically appointed
architect Robert Coles, who designed Phase I of the Amherst gym, was
personally responsible for the delays in construction of the project
because he was far behind schedule. Yes, SUCF officials admitted.
Coles missed his deadline, yes his performance is below average, and
yes he ha prime candidate for the task of designing Phase II.
Disregard for students and incompetence of this sort are the
primary factors involved in failing to get the campus built. The local
construction industry, legislators and members of the University
community must join in the fight to complete the campus. Until then,
the Administration must stop making fim commitments to move
student groups and academic departments out of Main St. Campus
buildings based on the assumption that space will soon be made
available at Amherst. That space it years, if not detades away. The
Year of Amherst is no more.

In regards to your lead article and editorial

sacrificed not to answer for them.
First of all, I’m not one of those impassioned
“Go America” heroes who lives in Hollywood

problems, and hope they go away. I also pray for

After every military action the United States has
been in the public cry for budget cuts has forced

reduction of our armed forces down to a negligible
level. Then when the next threat came along,
America depended on the actions of a few, while the
country re-armed at a frantic pace. Unfortunately,
the U.S. no longer has the time for re-arming due to
the technological advances in today's weapons. This

�FEEDBACK

Abortion and Western Tradition
To the Editor.

The accuracy of Susan Gray’s historical review
of abortion is to be challenged on several points. But
first of all, her assumption that abortion is a proper
means of population control must be protested! This
is barbarian. Yet she informs us at the outset that,
“Greek and Roman city states, the bases of Western
civilization, employed abortion as part of an
effective population policy.” As a means of
population control the most that can be said for
abortion is that it is effective. Now to correct the
history.

1. I would like to see documentation that
Greece and Rome had anything like a “population
policy” of which abortion was a part Abortion then
was a matter not of social policy, but of individual
decision often influenced by poverty, though Seneca
tells of women who aborted to keep their beauty.
Under the Antonine emperors though it became
social policy to curb population loss due to abortion.
No mention of abortion in the classical

world is complete without reference to the oath of
Hippocrates which forbids physicians to induce it.
Our Supreme Court has dismissed the oath as a piece
of 4th century B.C. stoic philosophy and thus not of
universal validity. Our law though owes much to the
Stoic natural rights tradition that the justices would
not begin to declare is relative. Stoic and Christian
influence won for the slaves of Rome the right first
to a legal name, then to legal marriage, and finally to
personal property.

3. Jerusalem as well as Athens and Rome is a
base of Western civilization and the major source of
our pro-life ethic. That the Mosaic law does not

reflects
presumption for life
the celebration of life. God is
said to be no more able to forget Israel than a
woman can forget a child in her womb, and even if
she forgets, God will not forget. Childlessness was a
great sorrow and as consolation the names of those
who died childless were inscribed on the temple wall
to assure them memory. This removed some a
woman’s temptation to commit adultery in order to
have a child.
4.
“Up until the mid-nineteenth century , . .
the Church held a rather loose view of abortion,”
Gray tells us. Part of the pro-abortionists’ campaign
has been an attempt to confuse Christians and
Catholics in particular by claiming that the values
they are taught are of fairly recent origin. Christian
teaching forbidding abortion is found as far Ijgck as
the DiJache, a collection of church discipline for the
instruction of converts that is dated variously as
being contemporaneous with the gospels of the first
century or is placed into the second. At any rate it is
a gathering of earlier teaching and so reflects church
belief in apostolic times. Early church discipline of
abortion was not “loose” but far more severe than
modern discipline. The first record of penalties we
have date from the early fourth century both in the
East and in the West. But the Council of Ancyra in
314 indicates earlier laws when it reduces the former
penalty of exclusion from church for life.
5. As part of this campaign much is made of
the belief of many of the early Fathers that the fetus
-

is not ensouled until 40 days after conception for
males and 80 days for femalei. In this they were
following Aristotle, the leading scientific authority.
Some of the Fathers did not take this view, however,
believing rather in ensoulment from conception.
(Those who still followed Aristotle came to believe
that ensoulment for both sexes came 40 days after
conception.) But whether they held for “immediate”
or “mediate animation,” the Fathers are explicitly at
one in the judgement that abortion at any point is a
grave sin. The Church did not suddenly “introduce”
the
concept of immediate ensoulment in a
mid-nineteenth century “panic” as Gray would have
it. It has been a growing consensus for centuries, one
bolstered by the findings of modem science. The
Church has never formally pronounced on when
ensoulment
occurs.
But church law requires
members to baptize fetuses miscarried at any point
in pregnancy.
While the grave sinfulness of abortion at any
point has been the constant teaching of the Church,
from 1588 the teaching has been underlined with a
penalty of immediate excommunication of all who
have
an
abortion or help
one.
procure
Pro-abortionists, though, try to leave an impression
that before this or that date abortion was permitted.
There is a whole literature based on this intellectual
dishonesty and therein no doubt are Gray’s sources.
At present some theologians
who try to
justify the use of contraceptive
and lUD’s
(which means often work not only to contracept but
to prevent implantation in the uteral wall after
conception), and “morning after” pills

occur at conception because
of the frequency with which implantation fails to
occur in nature But against this the high rates of
infant mortality in former times are to be cited and
there was never any question that infants have souls
however precarious their lives.
For the most profound expression of Church
teaching we must turn to the Church’s prayer life,
which is not meant to teach so much as to simply be
the life of a Catholic. And here we see the Church
celebrating the conception of Jesus on March 25 and
cannot

his birth nine months later, and the conception of
Mary (who the Church teaches was from that
moment saved before from the power of sin) on
December 8 and her birth on September 8, and the
conception of John the Baptizer on September 23
and his birth on June 24. These feasts are ancient in
the East and in the West and any research into what
the Church’s teaching on abortion is should be
guided by the principle that, ‘The rule for prayer is
the rule for faith.”

her firing were introduced for discussion at the

As The Spectrum's major subscriber, and as

such importance where unfair practices are being
claimed, to at the very least hear why The Spectrum
took such an action, even if it is not within our

Again, we reiterate that we do not question The

appalled and offended at their refusal to openly
discuss this matter and their stonewalling in imperial

Bubble baskets down
To the h'ditor
Since the last collapse of the Bubble, the
Amherst Campus has been left without even the
most tolerable of reactional facilities. The eight
baskets that once stood in the Bubble have only
three survivors; the others remain fallen, and of no
use to anyone. Three baskets for a student body of
at least twenty thousand (that is, not counting the
outdoor courts at Fllicott and Governor’s) is not too
ludicrous. It is basically obscene, profane, and
otherwise ludicrous. With this astronomical number

of baskets, someone who wishes to indulge in a
friendly game of basketball among those of his own
caliber is out of luck, as the courts are irrefutably
taken over by the talented and unnaturally tall. This
past Friday (February 3), two of the baskets were
taken by the Winter Carnival tournament, leaving
one basket for Friday’s schedule of Open
Recreation.

Female Bubble trouble
To the Editor

Nice going U.B.! You’ve found a way to make
the already inadequate athletic facilities of this
school even more inadequate. You take the only
athletic site on the Amherst Campus and throw out
all the guys on Thursday night so that a couple of
girls can have the whole Bubble to themselves. I’ve
never seen more than tne girls who really wanted to
use the Bubble at one time, and those who do seem
to work in with the guys with no more problems
than anyone else.

Is this supposed to show fairness? Then kick out
the girls once a week. Is this supposed to encourage
girls to use the Bubble? I think those who really
want to use the Bubble would and do go the other
nights ot the week when there are guys there.
The only thing this does is make the poorest
excuse for an athletic facility in the state (including
most high schools) even poorer and aggravates the
Bubble’s regular users. If that’s what you wanted to
do, then congratulations!

To the Editor.
There is an apparent contradiction between my

point of view and that of others quoted in The
Spectrum 's “Blizzard Revisited” section. I described
the social atmosphere as “every man for himself,"
whereas several observers stressed the solidarity and
mutual aid efforts of Buffalonians. Both descriptions
are correct if properly understood. During the
blizzard there were countless good Samaritans. It is
heartening to know that so many people were willing
to help those in distress, sometimes even at the risk
of their own lives. The death toll from the storm
would have been far greater without the voluntary
actions of ordinary citizens.
But what I had in mind were instances of social
irresponsibility in which the individual does not

To the Editor

To the Editor:

This tittle ditty is in response to Richard
Korman, the great American mystic, who felt it was
so necessary to warn us, once again, of the dangers
of marijuana (not to mention nailbiting). Rich has a
lot to say, but almost all of it is inexcusable drivel.
For instance, the first third of his Guest Opinion is
devoted to supporting a “scientific" study which
describes certain debilitating effects of marijuana.
What Rich chooses to forget is the enormous wealth
of meaningless scientific research done in this area.
The fact that researchers are human and subject to
human emotions makes it impossible for them to
approach such an emotion-laden topic as marijuana
use with any semblance of objectivity. Andrew Weil,
in The Natural Mind presents some amusing and
truly illustrative anedcotes to point out the
subjectivity of scientists.
Rich next goes on to describe the development
of his own relationship with marijuana. I have no
objection to this but must rather express my
condolences for his loss of craziness, spontaneity,
and life. 1 can only hope he regains them. What I do
object to is Rich's contention that “continued use of
drugs... is not an open road to intellectual
advance." This attitude reflects the Western
,

fascination with intellection that closes our minds to
the realization that there is any other kind of
awareness. Marijuana can help us in our discovery of
these other awarenesses which Western thought
buries so effectively.
After this Rich loses more and more touch with
his subject. Drugs were not “popularized” but
“rationalized” in the ’60’s by connecting them with

trend
represents the change from pragmatic treatment of
marijuana; i.e. What is it good for? Society’s next
step cih only be the answering of this question,
which will be very interesting in light of the
increasing popularity of Transcendental Meditation.
Lastly. Rich exhibits a good deal of comirion
ignorance. For one thing, cocaine is no more
addicting than marijuana. Another instance of
ignorance is his use of the word arbitrary, but a
dictionary will do a more convincing job than I can.
Finally, I must mention his statement that “once we
are dependant on anything
we are enslaved.” This
can only be the product of an excruciatingly weak
will (too much smoking eh. Rich) and can easily be
extended to mean we are, enslaved by our loved ones
(not to mention meals). How ridiculous.

In your recent article on phone costs, you
neglected to mention a new discount plan available
on long distance calls made within New York State
Under DIAL-A-VISIT (the name of the plan) a
customer pays $6.00 per month and receives $12.00
worth of calls made under the plan. After the $12.00
is exhausted the customer merely pays 50 percent of
the normal cost of the call (based on the rate at the
time the call is made). Essentially the discount is 50
percent on long distance calls made within the state
and the customer saves as long as he makes more
than $6.00 worth of in-state long distance calls each

month.
The plan is not in effect between 8 a.m,-5 p.m,
on weekdays. Calls can be made with the discount at
all other times. A customer will not receive a call by
call breakdown of calls made under the plan on the
monthly bill; but can get a complete breakdown for
$1.50 (each time it is desired) by calling the business
office after the bill is received.
The Telephone Company has not gone out of its
way to publicize this discount plan and most of their
reps don’t know much about it. To sign up for the
discount just call the telephone business office (at
the number on your phone bill) and tell them you
want Dial-A-Visit, It’s the only way to get phone
calls wholesale.

Disciplinary action
a high school must
by John Pctrino
Spectrum Staff Writer

“Jake” Shaefer sits in his office at the end of the first floor
corridor of Amherst Central High, a large public high school serving the
Buffalo suburb of Amherst. Over the door to his office is a plaque with
the word "Attendance” in white letters.
Shaefer is the discipline officer in what, for the most part,
represents a typical middle-class American secondary school. Schaefer’s
job is now more important than ever due to recent increases in high
school crime, violence and truancy. “My main concern is stopping the
little things before they develop into something big; putting out the
grass fires, the fights in the cafeteria, the class-skipping. We don’t want
these things interferring with the basic educational process of a high
school this size,” he explained. “You pick up where you left off the
day before, and worry only about what confronts you on any given
day.”
Amherst is a high school with only three grades. The freshmen are
schooled with seventh and eighth graders in a separate junior high.
About 1300 students, mostly white, enjoy an “open campus” policy at
Amherst, meaning that students may come and go as they please during
their free periods.

Family important
Shaefer feels that most high schools are adequately staffed to
handle the normal disciplinary procedures but points out one void.

said. ‘This year marks the first

that budget cuts were to blame.
Is the delinquency problem in public high schools as bad as the
media presents it to be? “Schools are the mirror of a society,” said
Shaefer. “Things are not as bad as in the sixties, when large groups of
high school kids were copying what went on in the colleges. On the
other hand, everyone thought thai when Vietnam was ended, things
would return to usual. But somehow, vandalism, alcoholism and drug
abuse have risen.”
Shaefer holds fast to his own basic philosophy on the root of
present discipline troubles. “There’s over a 50 percent, divorce rate in
our country, and the products of those families hit the public schools. 1
don’t see how the situation «an get any better unless American home
life improves.” Shaefer firmly believes that the family is the single most
important shaping factor of socialization, and that children are a
product of the guidance they receive from their parents at home.
Shaefer recognizes that a majority of students has experimented
with pot. “I don’t know if the kids are daily users, weekend users,
one-time users, or druggies,” he said. “I report to their parents, and
many times they already know.” Shaefer went on to say that students
occasionally experiment with LSD, valium and other dangerous drugs
on school time.
Alcohol abuse is a big problem at Amherst. When asked if he
considered alcohol a drug, Schefer was quick to exclaim, “Absolutely!
No doubt about it!’’ The problem appears to be that kids under 18,
unable to frequent bars and discos, often turn to drinking on the
streets at night and in their cars during school. “They’re a little bit
bolder about it now,” Shaefer observed, referring to students he has
confronted drunk on campus during school hours.
“You jcan’t go around promoting alcohol for people 18 and on,
and expect the 16 year-olds not to get ready for it. New York is a big
bar state,” he noted.
Vandalism has been a growing problem in our nation’s high
schools. Shaefer couldn’t guess how much money was spent each year
at Amherst repairing or replacing damaged property, but he did say
thid: “It’s not just the money, it’s the time taken up in repairing these
thing?. Vandalism is not only directed at the school, it’s directed at
each other. They ruin one another’s clothing,” he said. “They are apt
to wreck something after getting into someone else’s locker. And we
spent almost $100 last year just replacing demolished lockers.”
“In the sixties, students openly said that they were against the
establishment,” he informed. “1 think it’s still part of the same thing.
Now it’s just more underhanded and devious, not stated as it once
was.”
CruMng and getting high . .L. .
Shaefer went back to the family concept as a possible cause of
vandalism. “One of the most difficult and important jobs adults can
have is the proper raising of a family. If they view that as a secondary
or third role, they’re kidding themselves!” he commented. “And then
they expect that the kids will ‘automatically’ learn that they should
not vandalize, they should not take from each other, they should not
drink or use drugs, and that they should not drink and drive an
automobile. You cannot accomplish that with a health dass, a
driver-education class, or a guidance counselor. It’s a naive approach.
Let’s get back to basics!”
Dass attendance problems plague Amherst. Shaefer said that while
truancy for an entire day is mostly a thing of the past, skipping classes
has replaced it qn a large scale. Many students view the high school as a
social gathering. They will come to school, leaving their parents behind
and often gaining the use of the family automobile in the process; then
get together and spend the day cruising, drinking, getting high, or a
combination of these. And there are always the “hang-outs” on the
campus itself: the football stadium, the bridge out by the creek that
runs by the front of the school, the cafeteria, and the crowded parking

Amherst has a special policy for someone who skips a class. “We

Shaefer feels that Amherst is pretty representative of the views and
attitudes of high school America, save for the noticeable lack of
minority groups. “These kids have a Jot more material wealth than in

Basketball in the Bubble, which hat suffered in the throes of winter, it
scheduled to resume soon.

Delays, delays, delays

Maintenance crews
finally fix the Bubble
The Bubble basketball facilities, sorely deficient since the end of
last semester, will be near normal today, according to Director of
Recreation and Intramurals William Monkarsh Six of the eight new,
removeable backboards will be installed and playable by today, he said
The already-overcrowded Bubble was rendered unusable for
basketball last semester by a storm which punctured the Bubble skin
and bent the backboards. Instead of re-installing the old boards,
University officials opted for new backboards which could be easily
removed in the event of a storm, thus preventing puncture damage.
Although administrators promised that the new boards would be
ready by the time classes started, students returned from vacation to
ftyd only three of the old boards up. Basketball afficionados became
increasingly angry and frustrated as time went on and they were forced
to make do with much less than adequate facilities.
The Director of the Physical Plant of the Amherst Campus blamed
the delay on a lack of manpower in his department. He explained that
the new boards had to be designed and built by maintenance that the
they could only work on them
as time permits. We have to fit it
in.” The plumbing shop, which was in charge of the boards, was also
tied up with repairs of chilled water coils on campus. “We have a
limited force and a backlog of problems,” commented Fredericks. “It’s
the same old thing there’s just not enough men to go around.”

his “patented zombie ride,” i.e. his unique method
of gaining riding time.

The UB wrestling Bulls leashed the Bloomsburgh
State Huskies (ranked sixth in the East) with a 25-16
victory at Clark Hall Saturday. The Husky pack is a
Division 1 contender for the national top twenty
rankings.
Although coach Ed Michael wasn’t surprised by
the win, it was especially gratifying in view of the
performance of the lighter weights. Usually, the
inexperienced light weights usually relie on the
heavy weights to' pull out the wins, against
Bloomsburgh, met with forminable opponents and
still managed to establish a secure base of points for
the heavy weights to build upon
Bull Tom Jacoutot (118 pounds) began the
domestication of the Huskies by cradling Mike Nock
for a pin in five minutes and thirty-one seconds.
Jacoutot had lost to Nock earlier in the season at the
Wilkes Open. “Tom’s pin gave incentive to the team,
especially to the lighter weights,” commented
assistant coach Scott Stever.

Guaranteed victory
When Buffalo’s Bull Jeff Wheeler (190)
decisioned the 1976 Division III National Champion
Butch Snyder to pull the team score to 22-16, the
Bulls could not lose. The best Bloomsburgh could
bite out at that point was a tie, but then undefeated
11 -0-0 heavyweight Mel Sharp was dulled by Bull
Paul Curka, whose decisioned win guaranteed
Buffalo victory.
In the first of UB’s losing matches, one of which
was Tab Mak (142) superiorly decisioned 11-3 by
junior Glenn Schneider. Anderson called Mak
courageous “He exercised great determination. He
shows tremendous potential,” he said.
Tom Egan followed Mak at 150 pounds and
decisioned by Bloomsburgh’s Tony Caravella, who
stepped onto the mat with a 7-1-0 record. Husky
Don DiGiocchino achieved the last three points for
his team as Buffalo’s Dave Mitchell failed to disrupt
DiGiocchino’s 6-0-0 record. Despite his loss, Mitchell
viewed the match as successful. “It was a great team
victory,” he stated.

Off his back
Freshman Mike Jacoutot (126 pounds) pulled
out a tough draw from Husky senior Tom Fink by
coming off his back after trailing 7-2.
Buffalo’s Ed Tyrell (134) blemished Carl Poffs
4-0-0 record by collaring the Bloomsburgh junior
with a 3-3 tie. Tyrell lost to Poff twice last year,
once at a tournament and once in a dual meet at
Bloomsburgh.
After the Bulls lost the next two matches, they
trailed 13-10, but again began to tally points at the
158 pound bout when All-American Honorable
Mention Kirk Anderson pinned freshman Duane
Powlus in two minutes and fifty-nine seconds.
Co-captain Bruce Hadsell (167) continued the

Fencing team easy winners
by Robert Basil
Spectrum Staff Writer

The upbeat Buffalo Fencing team easily
defeated Colgate 17-10 Saturday in Clark Hall’s
small gym, raising their record to 3-0. This was the
fencers’ first home match as a varsity team in two
years.
Fencing is broken down into three different
events: sabre, foil and epee. In sabre, the target area
is the opponent’s upper body, including the arms
and head. This is a varry-over from when the sabre
was the weapon of the horseman. In epee, the target
area includes all of the opponent’s body. The epee is
the largest and heaviest of the three weapons. In foil,
the target area is the opponent’s torso, but the arms
and head are not legal targets, as in the sabre.
In both the foil and epee, the weapon is hooked
up to an electrical device that lights up when a
fencer strikes his opponent. The sabre event is
wireless and requires four extra judges to determine
the hits.
From the first allez, the Bulls took command
with Jon Solomon’s 5 to 0 victory over Dave Brooks.
Then after a brief quarrel between team captains in
the second match, the Bulls went on to win the next
seven bouts.
First time
Rich Sherman, only a freshman and fencing for
the first time, won all three of his bouts with little
difficulty, never being touched more than twice.
“They [Colgate] are not one of the better teams
that we have fenced,” said Sherman, “although some
of them were fairly impressive.” Glenn Miller, one of
Buffalo’s three volunteer coaches, is impressed with
the rookie. “He is very fast, has excellent hand-eye
control and is very interested and dedicated to the

sport.” Fellow coach Tom Bremmer commented,
“Rich is proof that fencing is a sport where you can
make varsity the first year you try out. The nationals
are certainly in his future.”
Buffalo’s Tim Rogers and Colgate captain Joe
Silberlicht fought one of the most exciting matches.
In overtime, with the score 4-4, the two wielding
epees, darted, advanced, retreated, and parried for
several minutes, each waiting for the other to make a
mistake. Said Silberlicht, “1 waited. I saw his arm
drifting to the left and tried to capitalize. I missed.”
Said Rogers, “He lunged, and I parried away his
sword. I hustled the sword back and hit him!”
Sub stars
The coup de grace belonged to Steve Kaplan,
who was substituted for Solomon. In front of WGR’s
television cameras, Kaplan waged a ferocious duel
with his opponent, charging and swinging his way to
a 4-3 lead. Then with twenty seconds left in the
bout, Kaplan parried his opponent’s foil away and
jabbed his right rib cage to clinch the match for the

Bulls.
With victory assured, the Bulls performance’s
sagged, especially in the sabre event. Other than

Chor Wong’s three victories, the Bulls could only
muster one sabre win.
After the match, Bremmer said, “It was too
close. We should have beaten them by more. We fell
apart after whipping them in the early-going.”
All three coaches are unpaid; Miller is a med
student and Bremmer is a law student. The third
coach, Jules Goldstein, a fencer of forty-five years,
still gives free lessons to those who want them.
Said Bremmer, “I am really impressed with the
talent on our team. I have little doubt that we will
go undefeated this season.”

�Swim team beats
Niagara at Clark

Slow times clocked

Harriers takefifth place in
Rochester University relays

by Geri Malady
Spectrum

Staff Writer

The swimming Bulls picked up another win by defeating Alfred
70-43 Saturday in Clark Hall. Buffalo coach Bill Sanford was at first
unsure of the outcome, since the Saxons beat the Bulls last season, but
the Bulls had a real lively easy time. Buffalo now stands at 5-3, while
Alfred is 0-5.
The Bulls placed first in ten of the thirteen events, and took at
least second and/or third place in the remaining three. Overall, Sanford
was highly pleased with his team and their many exceptional
performances. In the 400 medley relay, Jim Brenner, who last
Wednesday set a school record in the individual medley, provided the
relay team an early lead with his strong backstroke. Cesar Lopez,
George Finelli, and Tim Westner maintained the lead so that the Bulls
took the first event to lead 7 to 0.
In the 1000 yard freestyle, freshman Tim Nash and sophomore
Paul Glauber, both from Buffalo, battled all forty lengths of th6 event
for first place. Nash, by coming in first with a time of 11 ;313,
qualified for the New York State Championships. Glauber, who
finished a close second, had previously qualified for the State
Championships.
In the next race, UB juniors Don Brocklhurst and Frank Buczek
placed first and second respectively in the 50 yard freestyle to increase
the score 29-5 in Buffalo’s favor.

The UB track team finished fifth in a field of
nine teams at the University of Rochester Relays last
Saturday, in a meet that was typified by slow times.
The meet, held at the University of Rochester
fieldhouse, was marred by a bad fall. One turn of the
track goes through a tunnel which is very dangerous.
In the eight lap relay, an R.I.T. runner wiped out in
the tunnel and a Fredonia runner tripped over him.
The R.I.T. man never .finished the race. Buffalo
finished third in that eveni.
The Bulls were hurt in the race because of the
lack of competition in the first heat. Buffalo’s
anchorman Bob Reiss far outdistanced his opponents
in the heat but his time was only good for a third
place finish. In the second heat, Rochester and
Fredonia had a tough battle and thus ran harder.
UB was shut out of the overall competition
before they even got off. the bus. They had no
entries in the two weight events, the high jump, and

Besides the eight lap relay, the Bulls finished
third in the sixteen lap relay with a time of 8:49.4.
Buffalo’s strongest team effort was in the distance
medley relay where the team of Ken Dole, Reiss,
John Ryerson, and Lanny Doan finished second
behind Fredonia in 11:11.7. In the two mile run,
Mike Fischer finished fourth in a field of fifteen,
with a time of 9:39.

school was open on Friday, the baskets weren’t re-installeed until
Saturday.
Again, Fredericks cited his inadequate workforce as the cause of
the delay. The maintenance workers had more urgent repairs to take
care of before they could return to the Bubble; it was a matter of
priorities, according to Fredericks.
When the situation occurs, again, Fredericks expects that it will
again take two days to ressurect the boards, especially if there is
damage to other Amherst buildings.
Monkarsh defended the removal, naming the safeguarding of the
Bubble as the number one priority. “This is all we’ve got for the next
five years, so we have to take preventative measures,” he said. Students
unsure of the shape of the hoops can call the Bubble office at
636-2393 or the Recreation office at 831-2926.

The track team is also having financial problems.
The budget for both indoor and outdoor track is a
meager $2000 and the bus rentals for all the meets
will cost $ 1900. To ease their financial troubles, the
track Bulls hope to organize a raffle.

Stars Niles, Fine Hi and Doran
The Bulls took first again in the 200 yard individual medley, with
junior Chuck Niles’ time of 2:13.77. Niles also placed first in the 100
yard freestyle. Sanford praised Niles’ performances, claiming he did a
“heck of a job.” Buffalo also got an excellent performance from
Finelli, who took the 200 yard butterfly in 2 07.5, 21.8 seconds and a
whole pool length ahead of the nearest competitor.
Buffalo’s Michael Doran again was successful, picking up first in
the required diving. Doran was Athlete of the Week last week.
Teammate Anthony Frasca was second in the required dive and then
Frasca placed first with an excellent performance in the optional dive
with a score of 179.20.
Sanford, while proud of the achievements of the team, is looking
ahead to future meets. The meet today at Fredonia should be a tougher
test of the swimmers. “We beat them in the relay last year, but Alfred
beat us last year, so&gt;&gt;he noted. “Fredonia beat us three years in a
row at one point.”

Buffalo Coach Walter Gantz wondered, “Where are

Also of major

concern to
community groups is Griffin's

CDBG

Councilman Bakos feels one
consequence of this move will be
that “not-for-profit” Community
Development
Corporations
(CDCs) will “wither and die.”
New HUD regulations stipulate
that all human services programs
be operated only in support of

efforts.

The “boiler plate” clause allows
the City to cancel the contract on

expressed the fear of many:

by Jay Rosen
Rambling on about Student Rights is, in 1978, only
slightly less out of style than Nerhu Jackets and Love
Beads. The topic is a genuine anachronism now, almost to
the point of being boring.
But this is hardly the time for such disinterest. With
“Cutbacks!” becoming the rallying cry for governors,
legislators, and other power-drunk bureaucrats, students
should now, more than ever, be looking cautiously over
their shoulders to see if it isn’t their backs being cut, or in
the more severe cases, stabbed.
This essay will present a description of the student
power crisis, a detailing of its causes and a set of workable
solutions, most of which could begin to be implemented
tomorrow.

Well, Woodstock is now more commonly known as a

State University of New York at Buffalo

Amherst construction to stay dormant for years
by John H. Reiss
Managing Editor

Buffalo’s Amherst
ALBANY
Campus, conceived as the crown
jewel in the State University
system, will receive only a
trickling of state construction aid
in the forseeable future and will
remain functionally stagnant for
at least five years.
Top officials in the State
Division of the Budget (DOB) and
the State University Construction
Fund (SUCF) delivered this
news
to
sobering
Student
Association (SA) President Dennis
Delia and Treasurer Neil Seiden in
Albany Friday.
Groundbreaking on only one
project, a Civil Engineering
Building,
could conceiveably
begin within ayear. Scheduled
work on Phase I of the Amherst
gym (a 10,000 seat field house),
which has been riddled by
construction delays and design
foul-ups, has again been pushed
back, this time until April 1979 at
the earliest. Plans are ready for
only two other projects, a Music
and Chamber Ha)l and a
Center,
Communications
for
which the University is still
awaiting appropriations from the
Sate Legislature.
Aside from these four projects,
the remainder of the Amherst
Campus exists only on paper, with
virtually no commitment on the
part of the Governor, the State
Legislature or the DOB to make it
a reality.
No cake
The DOB has consistently been
fingered as the villian in Buffalo
construction, refusing to release
finds appropriated by the State
Ladisiature. Paul ViBette, a top
BOB official, explained that
SONY already owes the State
million in debt service for
construction currently underway

and claimed that until that money
is received, no new construction
endeavors can be pursued.
He said that any further
construction at this time would
require
additional
tuititon
increases for SUNY students.
“The less money that’s available
to the State University,” Villette
said, “the less money available to
programs. The more buildings you
have, the more debX service you
have. It all comes out of tuition.”
Villette shocked Delia and
Seiden when he told the SA
executives, “I don’t understand
you students. You want buildings
but you don’t want tuition
increases. You just can’t have
your cake and eat it too.”
Last June, Villette told Delia
that the DOB could not release
any funds until presented with a
list of construction priorities for
the Amherst Campus. Friday,
when Delia came armed with that
document, Villette, from his
office in the Capital Building
overlooking the State funded $6
billion Albany Mall, refused to
make any commitment, saying,
fiscally
‘‘We
cannot
be
irresponsible.”
Must have committment
Oscar Lanford, SUCF Vice
Chamcellor for
Campus
Development, explained that the
problem with funding State
University projects is tied to the
financial collapse of New York
City. He claimed the City’s
problems have pulled the State
into financial straits leading to a
failing bond market. “Before
there is any major construction
effort,” he said, “there must be a
commitment on the part of the
public to buy bonds. Investors are
shying away from anything
labelled New York. The bond
market is poor.”
Lanford said the bond market
in New York recently took a

have a real need. But real need is
not a determining factor.”

Fernandez said, “Everybody’s got

drastic turn for the worse, making
it virtually impossible for the
State to sell Housing Finance
Agency (HFA) bonds for the
purposes of construction. He
claimed that until recently the
outlook had been bright. Said
Lanford, “Six or eight weeks ago,
I thought we would have sold
$200 million in bonds by now. At
this point 1 can’t tell you what’s
going to happen.”
Lanford said that the bond
market is so poor, that even if
DOB granted all Buffalo’s wishes,
Amherst would still be bewitched
with construction woes. He
explained that in order for the

campus to be built, the following
must occur: the Legislature must
appropriate the money, contracts
must be made ready to advertise
for sale, and most importantly,
the bonds must be sold.
Sympathetic appearance
Delia and Seiden continually
tried to impress upon DOB
representatives the daily hardships
that face

University. When they described

Delia and Seiden also met with
James Ruhl, a top aide to State
Senate Majority Leader Warren
Anderson, who is eyeing the
Governor’s Mansion, and Bob
Hotz, an aide to Assembly
Minority leader Perry Duryea who
has already entered the race. Ruhl
said that the SA officials’
demands were “very reasonable”
and said he hoped that Anderson
would be sympathetic to their
cause. Hotz claimed he was
congnizant of the University’s
problems, having visited Amherst
last fall, and called the State’s
failure to complete Amherst
“irrational.”
Delia
the
emerged from
meetings pessimistic about the
future of Amherst but satisfied
with the knowledge of “where we
stand.” He claimed he and Seiden
made meaningful gains: “The
door that squeaks the loudest gets
the most oil, and we did some
squeaking. We have to continue to
fight for those buildings.”

NFG: the right to keep warm
unjustified harm. It is intolerable

by Paul Maggiotta
Special to The Spectrum

1977,
On September 28,
National Fuel Gas (NFG) shut off
the gas to Howard Cunningham’s
apartment after notifying the
landlord for lack of payment of
$97.03.

January
On
29
1978
Cunningham, or "Yogi” as he was

known, was found near death in
his frigid apartment. His body
temperature was 80 degrees. He
died that night in Meyer Memorial
Hospital. He was 84 years old.
That same day, Rachel L.
Wallace was found dead in her
apartment. She, too, had no gas,
nor electricity or water.
Ignatius (Iggy Giarabrone) ran
the tavern where Yogi had his
mail sent and cashed his monthly
check of $257. He has been busy
trying to find Yogi’s relatives.
“I knew for about a month
that the gas was turned off,”
Giambrone said. “Some of the
guys who worked across the street
told me about it. You couldn’t
mention it to Yogi, though, he
was very touchy about the whole
thing.”

that life can be threatened for
lack of payment of a financial
debt. This brings to mind the
ancient torture of debtors who
were allowed to wither away in

being unable to pay unreasonable
taxes on their income. Are we

We. cannot excuse these deaths,
because “it is the fault of the
system” and no one is to blame. If
the system is at fault, let us
examine the system.
At the core of this particular/
system we find the National
Gas Corporation with a monopoly
on providing heat and service to
the Western New York area. It is
intolerable for NFG or any other
utility to consciously threaten the
health and safety of its customers
as a bill collecting device.
Maybe Rachel Wallace could
have paid her bill, but for Yogi
Cunningham and many others in
his position, it is an undue
hardship. Inspecting further, we
can see exactly how unfair this
hardship is.

After unsuccessful attempts to

payment of gas bills to NFG. The
Alliance has proposed that it be
sent all gas bills, which, as they
are withheld from MFG, will force
the gas company to the bargaining

The Alliance has a list of ten

including a roll-back of the rate

What are some implications of dealing with
police officers?
The 4th Amendment entitles an individual to
certain rights and is further one guarantee against
invasion of privacy.
For a police officer to conduct a search, he
must have probable cause, a difficult term to
define, but basically meaning just what it says.
Furthermore, with some minor exceptions, a legal
search can generally only be conducted under three
conditions: (1) consent of the individual; (2) just
prior to a lawful arrest, and (3) with a search
warrant.

circumstances, to not let him into your home.
If an officer comes to the door, he must (1)
identify himself as police, (2) identify his purpose
and (3) ask permission to enter (with the exception
of a no-knock warrant even if he has a warrant). If
he does not have a warrant, you do not have to let
him in. If he does have a warrant, it is advisable for
you to ask to see it. At this point, however, he can
enter with or without your permission.
If ever stopped by an officer, it is not in your
best interests to be deceptive. You should answer
reasonable questions, as for example, what’s your
name? And such things as what are you doing
here? But you do not have to answer specific
questions relating to a crime. It is at this point that
you should ask for an attorney.
Probably, the best area to remember when
dealing with officers is to be courteous. Your

SASU pursues Health Fee
boycott; claims success here
The student boycott against

fee has been very

successful, according to Student
the
Association
of
State
University (SASU) delegate, Allen
Clifford. SASA is asking students
to sign cards pledging not to pay
the fee.
“Our biggest problem is not

“We’ve had to rely on Student

people.”
Clifford noted that some students
are reluctant to sign the pledge
cards because they are equating
this $8.50 fee with the student
health insurance fee. “The health
fee will appear on everyone’s bill
and has absolutely nothing to do
with health insurance,” said
Clifford.
The protested fee was handed
down by the SUNY Board of
Trustees when it cut the SUNY
health budget from $4.6 million
to $2.3 million, requiring students
to make up the difference.
“They’re adding the $8.50 instead
of doing something like raising
tuition. The Board of Trustees
instituted the f?e despite a 1963
mandate that health care would
be included in tuition. “Mandates

decision allowing the University

effect upon the relationship
between the department and the

presently assume that guns are

Head of the

substantial benefit for SUNY

an alternative would have been for

To the Editor:

Move
At last, the news is official. The Amherst Campus so boldly and
irresponsibly conceived as the sprawling University center of the future
the biggest, the most impressive, the most decentralized, the most
nouveau suburban, the most imposing construction project ever
dreamed of by Rockefeller
will remain indefinitely divided and
conquered by ill-conceived plans, budgets hacked to pieces by sudden
annual funding shortages, shifts in priorities for specific building
projects and terminal delays in allocations. The permanent
impermanence seems all very well rationalized by officials in Albay and
unforeseen by officials here.

The face of the Amherst Campus will determine the faces and
capabilities of every student and every academic department in the
University. It has become the symbol of an academic heartland
maligned by dislocation and permanent transition, a severe setback to
those whose visions were so high and the dominant characteristic in the
lifestyles of alt who must structure their time in spite of it
It is time to wake up and make reasonable plans for a future that
does not include any new permnent structures. The "Year of Amherst"
was created to bolster the spirits of Ketter administration officials and
of many student government officials who moved into the
Capen-Talbert Hall Complex over the summer.

If the former officials will not publicly admit that the move has
impeded their effectiveness
and perhaps it has not done so, but the
frontier atmosphere has definitely isolated them
then student
government officials definitely feel isolated from and ignored by the
student mainstream and know the move has gravely affected the
dynamics of their operations. The move has diminished their physical
presence and thus encroached upon their very credibility as student
representatives. Witness the as yet uncontested upcoming SA elections.
—

-

Students are the lowest priority on anyone's list of who is to be
moved where. Such thing as a student union was never included in the
original plans for Amherst and certainly not in the plans many times
since revised. Space for clubs and organizations does not exist even on
paper, though Squire Hall is supposedly to be turned over to the Dental
School in two years (though no drilling Will be heard for' at least five).

Now is the time for interim planning. The Undergraduate Student
Association (SA), the Graduate Student Association (GSA), and Sub
Board should never have moved to the Amherst Campus.

Guest Opinio
by Peter J. Ritchie
This is in response to the Guest Opinion by
(Mr.?) Gearwater which was recently published on
love and sex in The Spectrum. (Mr.) Clearwater was

very concise and clear in successfully illustrating and
diagnosing many of the ills which plague individuals
and couples in their relationships with each other.
But the answer to these problems, I feel, does
not lie in getting involved in transient aud shallow
sexual relationships; rather, what is needed is for
people to get involved much more deeply with all
the people around them, male or female; in love
relationships. And note that I have said love, not sex.
Sex can exist without love, and it will still serve to
satisfy “basic human needs” or desires.
True love is a way of life, and a way of sharing,
There are many, many depths of unexplored beauty
in life which have never been uncovered by most
individuals. The development of a true love life
involves becoming at peace with oneself, with others,

nature of love that is so very uncommon to our
world.
A true lover is a radical. He has challenged the

A tiu» lover is a radical. He has challenged the
age old powers that have directed mercilessly adult
men and womens’ lives from ages old. He is one who
can reach out and embrace the world and its people,
can absorb their sorrows, fears, resentments and
hatreds, and offer love, real pure life giving love, and

relationships among the common people in this
community give life its satisfactions. In this realm of

relationship that is much more satisfying.
And when, a man and a woman, both unique
individuals and deeply in love with living, come
together in marriage, they join together physically,
emotionally, and spiritually to share unselfishly a life
together. They have not “fallen into love” as the
songs so often say, but rather, have come together
out of love, to grow in love, and life, more and more,
together. Sexual intimacy has its deepest meaning

service and poor quality.
On the amusing side of things, FSA is supposedly
student controlled.
In many departments, curriculum changes, degree
requirements and course sequences are arranged with at
best token student input. The system of tenure, which
often grants miserable instructors lifetime employment,
totally bypasses students. Thus, we have almost no •
influence in the flavor and consistency of our education
and no choice in who feeds it to us.
While ihe nuances of dormitory life are left to the
residents, ultimate control rests solely in the hands of the
Housing Office. Squire Hall, the student union, is not
controlled by students at all, but by regulation-bloated
bureaucrats.
Students hold no absolute powers, few real influences,
and many, many illusions of control. The most compelling
example is Student Activity Fees. Despite the realization
that the ability to control our own money should not be a
privilege to be “granted” but a basic right, we gloat over
our student corporation, Sub-Board 1, as an innovative,
unique and giant step forward for student rights. The truth
is, when anything strays beyond a strictly student domain,
student control of fees floats right away.
When the vaunted Sub-Board I attempted to use fee
money to provide students with free legal representation,
the administration stepped in and issued an emphatic
“No.” That rejection ought to resound through every
dormitory, every apartment, every student union, and
every classroom, with the sobering message that we, as
students, are all just implements of the University.

undependable. They do not show up for their own
government’s meetings and are famous for missing

University committee sessions. Administrators and faculty
are consequently hesitant to put in writing that student
representation on various decision-making bodies be
required.
The lack of responsible student representatives
justifies in the minds of the University czars the ignoring
of whatever meek protests are voiced.

4. Lack of continuity. Student Association
administrations change each year. New, inexperienced,
often ignorant students oppose the same seasoned
administrators year after year. Priorities and directions
change with each president. Projects with incubation
periods of over nine months are difficult to complete. By
the time the ropes are learned, it’s time to leave for law
school. Political parties formed in January by some
mindless formula (meant to insure victory) inevitably
splinter the following November or December, due to
personality conflicts. The generals argue and curse each
other behind backs while the battle is annually being lost.
5. The State of the University. Undergraduate
Education at SUNY at Buffalo is poorly defined, lacking in
leadership and mired at the bottom of the University’s
priority list. Few will argue with this. The clearly stated
goal of this institution is to develop into a pre-eminent
graduate and research center.
Financial strain, legitimately traced to the tight fisted
bureaucrats in Albany, is neatly used to explain any

The split between campuses hampers communication,

The Sources of our Impotence

—

1. Apathy. The pressures on students to obtain high
grades, marketable skills, and the Big D (Diploma) leave
little time for worrying about anything else, like fighting
for an education. The hours leftover are spent escaping.
There are no highly visible, easily understood, emotionally
juiced issues for the masses to embrace. Vietnam and
Racism had a very distinct right side and wrong side, and,
as issues were nearly impossible to ignore. Eight years ago,
the emotional spark and fiery activism of the anti-war
movement ignited other issues whose resolutions produced
real and measurable changes in the University.
Times have changed. The huge block of marginal
students, who before were lured into activism by the sweet
morality of the anti-war movement, are now more likely to
slay in the library and study. The hard core group of
politically active students remains, but in fewer numbers,
with less dedication and sights more set on law school than
lasting change. Summoning mere interest for any issue, let
alone support, has become virtually an impossible dream

The solution

Students have no absolute power
an unarguable
fact. However, this does not preclude students from
wielding influence in some matters. There are
administrators and faculty who will at least listen to
student views when they are presented responsibly and
realistically. In the past few years, students have made
their greatest gains after successfully working within the
University bureaucracy. By this I mean that when students
have made impressive presentations on paper and at
meetings, real results can be had, although it will always
remain true that ultimately the administration will not

Besides assuring that each existing avenue of student
influence is responsibly filled, the consultants would
hopefully illuminate and resolve new issues.
How? As problems, complaints and ideas filter up the
SA organization from the various Directors and from the
student body, a slate of projects can be agreed upon. The
consultants would research each project, get all the facts,
all the sides of the issue, gauge student opinion and
produce a slickly prepared report containing all the
necessary documentation, culminating in a set of
reasonable and justified recommendations.
The report would be formally presented to the
appropriate administrative or faculty body, and pressure
would be applied to embrace its proposals. If any
hesitancy is seen in adopting the student proposals, the
report would be released to the news media and a heavy
pulic relations campaign would ensue in order to push the
student point of view. Constant contact with other
universities and with legislators would be maintained. If

with facts, a stubborn University could easily be
embarrassed into giving in.
The consultant positions are tools to fi$it fire with
fire. If this means risking a lapse into our own stifling
bureaucracy, then that is a chance that must be taken. It is
time for student rights to professionalize, even at the
expense of idealism and sweet morality.
One of the biggest advantages of the consultants is the
permanence they would lend to Student Association. SA
presidents will still come and go, but the professionals and
all their knowledge and experience would remain. Battles
for student rights could extend across different
administrations, as the consultants would assure continuity
and consistency from year to year.
The consultants would be responsible for accurately
determining where student interests lie. Through telephone
polls and survey taking, they could truly “bring SA to the
students.” Priorities could thus be tailored to what real
student needs are. rather than towards some elected
official’s guesses Student aids could be recruited here to
help in opinion gauging. Independent study credit could
serve as an inducement.
The consultants would not spirit away power from
any SA position. A close working relationship would have
to be maintained between the consultants and the student
leaders. This would hopefully be insured by a careful
selection process.
Where would the money come from? About $35,000
a year would be required. This can be obtained by raising
the mandatory fee to its legal limit of $70 per student.
Given inflation aid increases in fixed costs, some programs
may have to be cut back. There is the possibility of all the
student governments funding the consultants.
The concept of professional consultants directly solves
the Knowledge Gap, Irresponsibility and Lack of

gains are made, the problems of apathy and disinterest can

educational experience and should be rewarded as such.
This could be the consultants’ first project.
SA should develop its own undergraduate course
through tlie Dean of Undergraduate Education’s office
which would grant credit to students willing to get
involved.
In general, SA needs to mature into a respectable
student voice, firm in its stands but footed with facts and a
realistic understanding of the University. This voice should
be coupled with an effective public relations campaign to
place added pressure on the administration. Continuity in
priorities must be maintained from year to year.
Additional student input must be actively sought
Apathy cannot be continually used as an excuse. The
political realities of 1978 must be recognized and dealt
with accordingly.
Students should not settle for illusions of control.
Real power can no longer be demanded, mainly because
the great majority of students have no interest in
demanding anything but the Big D. Control of student life
must now be earned the hard way.

Meacham continued that the BIC handled 40,000 telephone inquires

continued to ring until the last minute of the agency’s existence with
calls for information and assistance. The BIC also produced a resource

The use of the 30-day no-cause termination clause provoked
distress from other “human services” agencies that have similar
contracts with the City. Mayor Griffin has said that such terminations
will continue.
In hearings of the Common Council’s Revenue Sharing
Sub-Committee, Meacham complained of the manner in which the
termination was handled. “We heard on the radio that the BIC contract
had been cancelled,” she said.
Subcommittee Chairman Eugene M. Fahey defended the BIC
saying, “these services have never been provided before.” And Masten
Councilman David A. Collins attacked the cancellation of the BIC
contract as “capricious and arbitrarily perpetrated.”
Some City Hall observers speculated that the BIC was the victim of
political reprisals by the Griffin administration because it has been
closely associated with former Human Resources Commissioner Robert
C. Penn.
However, current Commissioner David Echols responded that it
had been axed because HUD, which provided the funds for the agency,
had demanded a sharp cut in administrative costs. Echols said that the
budget costs of the information center were classified solely as
administrative, and not programmatic.

A-hunting we;will go;
the ins and outs of
the search for jobs
Charles Haviland
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Aetna Dowst received a bachelor of arts degree (B.A.) in history
from Trinity Coliegp. She also holds a $150 a week secretarial position
where her duties have nothing to do with her college studies. When
asked if she would rather have back the $20,000 spent on her
education, Dowst replied, “Not on your life!”

Bill Foley is a graduate of the State University of New York
College at Oswego and he holds a B.A. in chemistry. He earns more
money working for his father’s publishing company than some of the
instructors at this University. Foley’s college education clearly doesn’t
mean much to him.
Dowst and Foley both hold jobs unrelated to their hard-earned
college degrees. Dowst values her education; Foley docs not. It seems
that anywhere in downtown Buffalo and other large cities, one can find
waiters and waitresses with dormant college educations.

Regardless of whether June, 1978 graduates will cherish their
degrees, it would be wise for them to start job hunting now. The
proper time to do this is in the Fall, but it is still not too late to get a
jump on the lazier graduates, who plan to start looking in June.
Banking looks good
There will be almost two and one-half graduates fighting for each
college level position on the job market in 1978, according to
employment surveyors. If plans include teaching next Fall, public
institutions can probably be counted out, except those in New York
City, considered most undesirable. Prospective teachers who are denied
positions should look to the humanities and social science fields, as
those jobs do not require any specialized training, according to William
N. Yeomans, author of Jobs 78.
The outlooks for computer science, accounting, banking, and
dietician work are brighter.
Fields related to construction, such as lumber, metal, and
transportation will be poor sources of employment in 1978.

Four-year college graduates may have some competition from

Recruiting
Relocating, by the way, is something the job seeker should never
overlook. According to studies'll Fordham University and City College
of New York, graduates have refused to move in order to accept better
positions. Currently, one of the keys to long-range financial,success is
to start in a position away from the urban setting. Once experience is
gained in rural areas, chances are better for achievement in the city.
Recruiting by business firms has been on the decline in past years. One
reason is this immobility of graduates.
An official at Brandeis University claimed that more than one-half
of last year’s graduates used home contacts to locate employment. In
response, recruiters have stayed away from that institution.
Job-hunting students have been refusing to talk to anyone outside of
their hometown areas, he said.

Firms looking for new prospective grads to fill-in their payrolls will
be looking more carefully than every. Thirty-six of some of the biggest
firms in this country revealed in a recent survey that a considerable
number of recently-hired college grads left in favor of advancement.
The firms felt that large investment of time and money went right
down the drain, according to a report in the Wall Street Journal.
Companies cannot afford this expense. Therefore, programs offering
more challenging work and promises for career advancement at the
onset are starting to catch on.
Death and retirement
The individual who doesn’t care what position is available as long
as it offers enough to take care of his college loans can look to civil
service. According to Jobs 78, civil service now offers the highest
salaries and the best fringe and retirement benefits ever, surpassing
those of private industry. However, these jobs are hard to come by,
most openings being created through death and retirment.
The job-searching guide, Jobs 78, can be found in most book and
drug stores for $3.95. Women and Blacks have a jump on others, as
firms are looking to fill quotas. Black women just about have it made,
according to Yeomans.

In control from the outset, the basketball Royals swept
past the Knight of Geneseo Thursday by a score of 78-58.
“Everybody was contributing,” Coach Liz Cousins said about her
team which now sport a 7-4 record. “We managed to stay out of foul
trouble and hustled out there for forty minutes.” The Royals opened
up on fire hitting their early shots and jumping out to a 14-2 lead in
the first five minutes.
The Knights, who came into the game with a 1-2 record, have had
problems with their offense, but they do have a solid man-to-man
defense. Cousins wanted her team to come out and control the game
“like they haven’t done before.” With the starting line-up on the floor,
the Royals held the lead steady throughout the first half. Cousins
shuffled her line-up, giving her bench mcuh deserved playing time. With
the subs in, UB built up a half-time lead of 43-87.

Co-Captain Frazier, whose bucket won the Canisius game Tuesday,
picked up eight points and extended her streak to sixteen consecutive
foul shots made.
“We were having trouble overall, but one game can help get it
going,” commented the Royal mentor. As Cousins cleared her bench,
the regulars were given a much deserved rest. “A very solid
performance overall,” stated Cousins. “Everybody’s contributing,

Although it’s only February,
and September gridiron clashes
are a long way off, grid coach Bill
Dando is already preparing for the
1978 season.
After a seven year absence
from Rotary Field, football
returned to the UB campus last
fall, playing a limited schedule of

In the next few weeks, Dando
will hit the recruiting trail,
attempting to pick up new
freshmen.

Division III level is more or less a

Dando. “I was very pleased about

available talent after that. “There
is no way we can compete for the
blue chip player,” he claimed,
“because of the unavailability of

scholarships at the Division III
to the large
budgets most Division I schools
have.” As an example, the
Division I school will attempt to
get a 6’4”, 220 pounder, who
starred in high school. On the
other side, well get the 6’2”, 190
pounder, who will grow into his

Low tuition
There will, however, be more
talent available for the Division III
team due to the decrease in
scholarships allowed for Division I
and II teams. As a result, some
good players will be left without
scholarships, but UB does have
one advantage over most Division

Look in Friday's Prodigal Sun
for complete weekly listing
of UUAB events.

When Dando travels to Long
Island next week, he’ll sell U.B.
education and football, in that
order, to the high school athletes.
“Most of our kids arc here for
education first, and playing
football second,” said Dando.
“Well have a jump on teams like
Canisius, Alfred and Hobart,
because
of UB’s
excellent
academic reputation.” The Bulls
also have an attractive schedule,
which also may play an important
role in recruiting players.
Dando first plans for his Bulls
to become competitive and then
go on to be a winner. “Our goal is
to make the Division III playoffs,

but we have a long road ahead of
us,” noted Dando.

In a few weeks, the team will
begin weightlifting three times a
week and running two miles each
day. The conditioning should add

Swimming Royals are
defeated by Geneseo

The swimming Royals Started off slowly and never
TJeneseo
quite recovered as they were easily defeated, 82-45, by Geneseo here
Thursday, dropping their record to 3-5
After falling behind in the first event of the night, the 200 medley
relay, the Royals tried to come from behind. In the 500 freestyle,
Senior May Drozda finished an impressive second, just ten seconds
short of victpry. Drozda later went on to capture first place in the 100
breaststroke with a time of 1:20.78, equaling her best time in the event
Throughout the night, Royal swimmers picked up second and
third place finishes consistently. Buffalo Coach Pamela Noakes
commented that her team seems to be getting back into form despite
the loss. “Maybe it was a case of post-vacations,” explained Noakes,
“but swimmers like Deenie Lambic and Kim Andrews seemed to be
getting back into the pace.” Lambie placed second in the 50
breaststroke with a solid 0:39.2. Andrews, in her best event (the 50
breaststroke), looked impressive with a time of 0:35.1.

Sister act

The high point for the Royals’ diving squad occurred when Eileen
Wood erased her past difficulties in the three meter required diving.
She won easily with 129.96 points, twenty-five more than her nearest
opponent. In the optional diving event, Wood’s strongest event, the
result was even more lopsided. Relying on high difficulty dives. Wood
registered one of her best performances, scoring better than 165 points.
UB diver Beth Prescott, who has not practiced in a few weeks, wrapped
up third place in the optional diving.
In the, 100 butterfly, sisters Sally and Mary Jo Cloutier took
second and third place respectively for Buffalo. Sally also took second
place in the 100 freesyle event with a time of 1 ;05.8.
The Royals next meet is tonight against the Bengals of Buffalo
State. The Royals tripped Buffalo State by two points earlier this
season.

&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;

Common Council $14 million
OKs NFC boycott NFG wants a price increase
by Bradshaw Hovcy

by Bobbie Demme

Spectrum Staff Writer

The Buffalo Common Council’s Legislation Committee has voted
6-1 to approve the city’s participation in the Citizen’s Alliance 100-day
gas bill boycott against the National Fuel Gas Company (NFG). The
resolution now goes before the full Council for a vote of approval at
next TuesdayVmeeting.
The action came in the wake of the deaths last weekend of two
elderly Buffalo residents who froze to death in unheated apartments.
But Council Majority Leader George K. Arthur predicted, “it’s not

going to happen,” because a lack of support from Mayor James D.
Griffin and City Comptroller Robert E. Whelan. The City cannot
withhold payment of its gas bills from MFC without the approval of
both the Mayor and thft Comptroller.
The resolution picked up additional support last Tuesday from
North Councilman Daniel T. Quider and the Council’s lone Repuglican,
Delaware Councilman William L. Marcy. Quider said ire didn’t “think
this is an extreme action” compared to what NFG has done and asked
to become the seventh sponsor of the resolution. Marcy, who had
previously called problems with the utility a matter for the State Public
Service Commission (PSC) admitted having a “change of heart,” and
voted to approve the resolution.
With the support of Marcy and Quider, in addition to the backing
of the resolution’s six original sponsors, the measure seemed assured of
the eight votes needed for passage before the full Common Council.

City Editor

National Fuel Gas Corp. (NFG) Wednesday filed
a request with the Public Service Commission for a
rate increase which, if granted, will annually provide
$41 million in additional revenues.
The rate increase request comes on the heels of
the initiation of a 100 day boycott of bill payment
by consumers in the Western New York area. The
boycott effort is being marshalled by the Citizens
Alliance Committee.
In announcing the filing, NPG Vice President
Gerald C. Miller deemed the additional revenues
“absolutely necessary if NFG is to continue to
provide the quality of service our customers have
come to expect and to which they are entitled.”
Miller also cited inflation as the major reason for
the requested increase. “National Fuel’s expenses as
well as those of each individual and business
continue to rise with inflation,” he noted.
The last requested major irate increase was
applied for in November of 1975 when NFG asked
for $29 million. However, the Public Service
Commission (PSC), which conducts the public
hearings for all utilities in New York State when a
rate hike of more than two and-jpne-half per cent is
requested, awarded only $6 million of that request,
“making the need even greater now,” an NFG press

fully documented regarding the company’s financial
requirements. He went on to cite examples of
increased company expenditures in the areas of
taxes, plant maintenance and operation costs and the
spiraling incidence of unpaid gas bills.

Coon further quoted the official NFG press
release saying, “We agree that gas bills have doubled
in the last five years. The major reason is the cost of
gas has gone up two and one-half times in the same
period. NFG rates have gone up less than 20 percent
in the last five years as opposed to the 35 percent
inflation rate listed in the Consumer Price Index.”
Consumer reaction
The proposed rate hike filed with the PSC will
increase the average customer’s bill by $64 annually
or $5 per month on the balanced billing plan.
Allowing sufficient time for the PSC to complete
their hearings, the increase if allowed, would take
effect around January 1979.
As for consumer reaction to another rate
increase request on the part of NPG, Regional
Coordinator for New York Public Interest Research
Group (NYPIRG) Ken Sherman remarked, “They
could not have given us more fuel for the boycott.”
According to Sherman, NFG had record profits for
1977 after having earlier received the supplementary
increase in January, and the company did not g^ye

daily. The people can’t lake it anymore.”
Rachel L. Wallace, 72, of 427 Adams St., was found frozen to
death in her home last Sunday and Howard “Yogi” Cunningham, 84,
died from exposure Sunday in Meyer Memorial Hospital. Both had
thek gas shut off because they could not pay their bills.
During this presentation to the' Committee, Kenneth Sherman,
Co-director of the Citizens’ Alliance, announced that a memorial
service for the two shut-off victims would be held at noon today in
front of the NFG offices on Lafayette Square.
No reports received
University Councilman Eugene M; Fahey tossed aside questions of
the City’s legal liability if it joins the boycott and urged quick passage
of the measure. “If NFG wants to sue the City of Buffalo that’s fine

with me,” he said.
The Legislation Committee had been waiting for reports on the
resolution from Griffin and Whelan but received neither. In such cases
the Council Committees usually table items for two weeks until it can
have all information pertinent to those items before it. Instead, the
Committee passed the resolution and asked the Mayor and the
Comptroller to prepare their reports in time for Tuesday’s Council
meeting. &amp; .

The lone “no” vote on
Councilman-at-large Gerald Whalen

the resolution came from
who conceded that “maybe we

telegram which he sent to Governor Carey asking for his

the situation. Whalen said that if he received no answer

Studio Arena is a fine theatre both acoustically and
aesthetically, it does not satisfy the needs of the
current Studio Arena theatre group.
“We’ve outgrown the premises,” said President
of the Board of Trustees of the Studio Arena
Theatre Robert Swados. “There is a need for both a
larger number of seats and a more technically
equipped theatre.”
Sold out productions would have attracted
much larger audiences, but limitations were caused
by the size of the theatre. Problems with immovable
sets and lack of rehearsal space also exist according
to Swados. He explained that since the University
Theater Department operates on a smaller scale than
does the Studio Arena, the building could be more
advantageous for this University group.

Transfer the funds
“Since the University is already committed to
leasing the Pfeifer Theatre” said Elkin, “it might be
willing to transfer the money to lease the Studio
Arena, a better facility. The Studio Arena, which is
closer to campus, is better equipped and more
accessible to students.” A subway system, for which
plans are now being made, will make a “theatre
stop,” greatly increasing the theatre’s accessibility.

Stricter guidelines

presents

for loans enforced
by Lori Btaunaleiu
Spectrum Stuff Writer
Nine of the $16 million awarded to students this year In aid by the
University Office of Financial Aid was granted in New York Higher
Education &lt;NYSHED) Loans. These loans, at seven and one half per
cent interest rate, are federally guaranteed against student default and
are not bayed on financial need. Other forms-of aid, such as Tuition
Assistance Program (TAP), Basic Educational Opportunity Grants
(BEOG), work study and National Direct Student Loans (NDSL), are
harder to obtain because they are based solely on financial need,
according to Acting Director of Financial Aid David Bowman
More students may be applying for NYSHED loans because new
TAP guidelines further restrict the independent status category. “The
student’s net taxable income has to be under $1000 (where last year it
had to be under $2000), said Bouman.
“Another new TAP requirement for independent status is that the
student be over 22 years old, unless he or she is a ward the State, a
foster child. Or an orphan,” said Acting Assistant Director Clarence
Conner. Both Bouman and Conner believe that this has ruled out quite
a number of students from obtaining independent status for TAP
awards. “There are now some 20-year-old women with two children
attending this University,” added Conner.

ADMISSION:

&gt;

The reason for these new strict standards, according to Conner, is
that last year “many students declared themselves independent who
actually weren’t and TAP didn’t check this efficiently enoughAs a
result. TAP experienced severe financial difficulties.
The National Direct Student Loans are given out at three and one
half per cant interest. “Each year, we send Albany a protection of the
needed funds for NDSL. Albany will then* send us .between 48 and 52
per cent of the money, with the remainder coming from repayments
from students no longer attending school,’* said Bouman.
iiSl
The biggest problem with the NDSL Loans, Bouman said, is slow
payments, not default. “When former students don’t repay their loans
on time, or not at all, they are only hurting other students.”
SUNY at Buffalo’s default rate has been slowly declining over the
past four years according to James Long of the Student Loan Services
to 1S.6 in

�Computers tangle
MFC registration
Faulty computer programming has been blamed for this semester’s
registration mix-up affecting up to 1000 students who registered for
Millard Fillmore College (MFC) classes.

On January 18, MFC students and cross-registering day students
who added courses the previous two days, had portions of their
schedules deleted. Some of the affected students discovered the errors
that day when passing through the drop-add lines. Others found they
were not on the class lists of courses for which they had been
p.e-registered.
Students then brought their grievances to the Office of Admissions
and Records and to Millard Fillmore College Dean Eric Streiff.

Streiff explained the registration system gives priority to students
for classes within their own division. On the two days in question, the
computer could not register night students into day classes and day
students into night classes. “Something wasn’t taken out or entered
into the computer program,” said Streiff.
“Get what he pay* for’
reason for the snafu, according' to Assistant Director of
and Research Peter Wittemann, is that the parameters
cross-divisional registration were not set properly. As a result,
were printed on schedule cards but not entered in the
computer banks. Many students showed up at their class’ initial
meeting to find the course closed and their names nowhere on the list
of enrollees.

The
Planning
allowing
courses

“Everything possible is being done to correct the situation,” said
Wittemann. “We believe the consumer at this University should get
what he pays for.”
Wittemann and Director of Admissions and Records Richard
Dremuk investigated the matter personally. After reviewing computer
tapes and printouts, Dremuk and Wittemann pinpointed 32 sections
that had been affected.
On January 18, students were asked if they had been through the
line on the previous two days. Those who had, were advised to
re-register. “If the course was closed, we adjusted the guidelines for
class size or opened new sections,” said Wittemann, adding, “The main
effect tliis has on the University'!* thatmyi 20 dassgs have movtf tp
larger rooms and we’ve had to find instructors for new sections that
have been added.

Wittemann concluded, “Anyone with a problem should come to us
and they can be force-registered. After going through all this, there’s no
way it could ever happen again.”

allow undergraduates to occupy all the available
space on the University campus.

Amherst Campus is at least five to eight years away,
the only possibility of expanding is to rent a facility
like the Studio Arena, said Elkin.
Elkin believes that the productions put on by
the University’s Theatre Department are an asset for
both the school and the outside community. Both
theatre education and entertainment are provided
through these productions. Plays arc done that are
nonexistent elsewhere in the city. “The department
provides,” said Elkin, “an important community
service function for which a move would give a
greater opportunity.”

Though mainly for use by the Theatre
Department, the Studio Arena could also be a place
where the University Music Department could hold
concerts, especially those given by the Creative
Associates, an experimental music unit contained in
the Department.

Special degree
Current plans call for all graduate classes be held
at the theatre if it is leased. A unique one-year
Masters Degree in Theatre is being proposed in which
graduate students will earn a degree by forming a
Theatre Company and producing two seasons’ worth
of plays. Most current graduate programs include
both a laboratory and a class, but the special degree
would be conducted entirely as a laboratory
situation.
Housing the graduate program downtown would

By moving the Theatre Department downtown,
a gain in prestige is likely. “The Department will
become more visible,” said Elkin, “and will be a part
of the growing theatre scene downtown.’* There are
hopes that a theatre district will develop in
downtown Buffalo which will include the Century
Theatre; Shea’s Buffalo; the Studio Arena; and the
Convention Center, opening next year. “Becoming a
part of this scene is a real opportunity,” Elkin
commented. “Developing this theatre district could
mean a- tremendous -revitalization of the downtown
area.”
Whether the University budget can afford the
move is presently being discussed between the
Studio Arena management and the University
Administration. If all financial details can be worked
cut, the move will be made by September 1978.

Assistant Professor in the Department of
Economics Abraham Haspel believes that city
administrators should be careful with the type of
industries they arc trying to attract. “Buffalo has an
image of itself as a factory town,” he said. “Buffalo
already has more than its share of pollution. Service
businesses would provide jobs without such a large

environmental expense.”

Haspel doubts, though, that the city will be able

to bring itself in hne with the growth to be
experienced by the rest of the country.

Contradicting many economists who believe growth
is necessary for prosperity, Haspel believes that life
in Buffalo may still improve. Even with a stagnant
economy, people leaving the city would enable those
who remain to enjoy a higher per capita income, he

Haspel warned that incoming industry does not
guarantee better living conditions. If the city offers
concessions that are too generous, its return will be
small. Yet this city will still need to supply sendees
to those workers, possibly resultihg in a net loss.

Associate Professor in the Department of
Economics Nagesh Revankar has a much more

number of employed of perhaps 2.5 million, and
even a alight drop in the number of unemployed.

Difficult to calculate
Some economists arc now questioning the value
of measuring progress by Grom National Product
(GNP): Net Economic Welfare (NEW) corrects GNP
by including things such as the value of housewives
work, the negative worth of pollution and the cost
of some aspects of modem life, such as commuting
to and from jobs.
NEW is obviously difficult to calculate. Even so,
it is estimated that NEW is growing some 30 per cent
more slowly than GNP. With the world’s limited
resources (especially oil), the population would be
happier if NEW was increased at the expense of
GNP. Modem economics has found ways to limit the
material growth of GNP and have healthier welfare
growth, according to Paul Samuelson in Newsweek.
What is lacking is a city where this has been tried.
Politics usually favors expansion and it , would
take a radical change of ideas for the Buffalo city
administration to drop its goal of maintaining the
city’s rank among other industrial centers, which
might not be the best overall decision. The
geographic structure of the US is changing and
simply because factory production is a tradition does
not mean change is not possible.

Facing thefuture in Buffalo

New IDs

Approximately 675 students have been notified by letters mailed
Tuesday, that their advance registration has been revoked because they
have failed to meet Admissions and Records (A&amp;ft) deadline of
January 16 for payment of last semester’s tuition bill. The University
has extended the date for them to re-register to February 2.
The revocations of registration are the result of a new policy
instituted last semester which allowed students to pre-register before
paying the previous semester’s bill.
“The reason for the extention,” explained Associate Director of
Admissions and Records Peter Wittemann, “was that the response to
the policy of pre-registration was excellent, and It was felt that
students should be given a further opportunity to clear their debts.” He
added that in some cases, students may not have been able to meet the
initial deadline because of various “external” reasons, such as problems
in financial aid processing.
A total of 9817 students took advantage of pre-registration and
9142 of them made their financial payments by the initial deadline. All
students who haven’t completed their initial registration as of
yesterday, will be referred to the Office of the Dean of Undergraduate
Education in 544 Capen Hall should they wish to enroll.

by Mitch Grow

Spectrum Staff Writer

It occurred to the Faculty
Senate eight years ago that when a
student is taken out of the
familiar surroundings of his home,
family and friends and put into a
red brick maze with some 3000
strangers, it might affect that
student’s mental health. As a
matter of fact, that student may
be downright unhappy.
This is especially true when the
maze is made so that a large
number of these strangers cannot
all be together at one time, and
have no area where they are likely
to run into each other socially
more than a couple of times a
week.

“Actually,”
Irving
Spitzberg, “the EUicott Complex
was designed to be a rather
inter-personal place.” Spitzberg
knows the probably better than
anyone because, being Dean of
the Colleges for the past four
years, it was the job of his
department to make EUicott such
a place. The fact is that the
Colleges today are not a relic of
ah old University of Buffalo fitted
randomly into EUicott, rather,
they are a revised form of the
Colleges that originated in 1970.

thing that makes living there

The preamble to the Faculty
Senate’s Prospectus for the

Colleges states,
Colleges are on balance, a valuable
addition- to the University and
that their special strength lies in
the motivation and enthusiasm of
the students, in providing a sense

attention
to

perspectives and values, and in the
innovative,
opportunity for
experimental, interdisciplinary
and socially relevant learning.”
“

September 8, 1977 was so
long ago for Irving Spitzberg,
Dean of the Colleges at this
University, that it took him a
while to find a copy of his letter
of resignation, sent that day to
Vice President for Academic

the fullest maturity it could

his letter he states: “We now

Since the Prospectus is going

it seems appropriate that a new

to share his or her ability with

However, the preamble also states
that at the same time, the CoUeges
were found by external evaluators
to be; "... too valuable to lose
and too chaotic to survive.”
For this reason, the Faculty
Senate drew up a Prospectus in
1974, putting the CoUeges into a
new form. The new system
included several new governing
powers, such as the Office of the
Dean of the CoUeges, the Charter
Committee and
the College

would be similar to the President
of the CoUeges in the old system,
but because of the new CoUeges’
focus, the job would be different.

DeUa the demented

Ploying a Nixonian defense
And a rock feels no pain
And an island never cries.
Nine days ago, we urged President Ketter to issue a
response to the Mathematical Sciences Review Committee
report, which paints a gloomy portrait of academic life here
and casts serious doubts on the University Administration.
We had earlier been referred to Executive Vice President
Albert Somit for an official comment which turned out to
be "no comment" on the question of insecure and
incompetent leadership.
—

The President ignored our offer. By not responding to
The Spectrum, Ketter chose to once again insulate the
Administration from the students and University
community. He has also left unchallenged the Review
Committee's disturbing view of the University leadership (or
/
lack of same).
Ketter did feel it appropriate to respond to the
Courier-Express and the Buffalo Evening News, neither of
which have measurable on-campus readerships. In those
Ketter
danced
replies,
neatly
around
the real,
University-wide issues of a poor academic environment and
poor leadership by detailing the conflict between "applied”
and "pure" mathematics. He also expressed amazement that
the media would consider the report "news."
Instead of a forthright and candid reply to the Review
Committee's harsh criticisms
some of which may be
over-generalizations
Ketter has played a Nixonian defense,
preferring to suppress the report, discredit the Review
Committee's work, and confuse the issue.
Members of the University community have told us that
it is precisely this insular attitude that is at the source of the
problems illuminated by the Review Committee. We tend to
—

-

agree. By stonewalling the report, Ketter has kept spinning
the myopic cycle which is, in part, responsible for the
deterioration of University life at SUNY Buffalo.

The Administration's self-protecting isolation from the
faculty and students is a weH documented complaint. We
would like to add another chapter by denouncing President
Ketter for his refusal to answer charges of administrative
incompetence; for his lack of respect toward the campus
press; and for his deliberate clouding of a very clear issue.
Admittedly, the Review Committee's gloomy picture of
the academic environment here is arguable. What cannot be
debated is that significant portions of the University
community genuinely concur with the Review Committee's
findings.
The pure fact that many faculty and students preceive
the University atmosphere as dismal has been completely
lost in the denunciations and denials. That simple realization
is more important than the reports of a thousand
committees.

Let’s not be mellow
To the Editor.
We wholeheartedly reject the opinion of Johnny

Reid and his followers who put forth a doctrine of
mellowness to combat strife at the University. The
time and the place demand non-passive resistance. It
was Ghandi, in modern times, who fostered the idea
of passive resistance. His success can be attributed to
the circumstances he confronted; i.e., a human and
civilized foe which he fought in front of a human
and mainly humane audience. Unfortunately, we at
UB lack these advantages.
It should be recognized that most of the time
we are dealing with a machine oriented system which
accepts little more than your social security number
as proof of existence. Once it has this, the important
feature of your life, it can bill you (often for courses
you never even heard of), schedule you to certain
places at certain times, pass on its information to
other sources, or confuse you for another piece of
data (“If you’ve collated one person, you’ve collated
them all . . .”), Luckily, if by some unusual (?)
circumstance the master machine mangles you (after
all folks it’s only human!) you can always go to the
people of the administration.
Y«*. the administration! Who are they, these
powerful people known mainly to Jay Rosen and his
fellow hacks? We can’t say, but from the services
rendered it looks as if the bureaucracy is just an
extension of the machine. The SUNY Machine.
Admission and Records, Scheduling, Food Service,
all work by the clock the number and the record
card. If you had a bursar check in your schedule in
December and paid it promptly, or better yet found
out it was non-existent, whatever, you may be
assured that your schedule cards still read
temporary. Try taking a book out of the library.

You can find manifest inefficiency in the system
almost wherever you look. Our student directory (oh
wow! three roommates, three different numbers, all
of them wrong!), our student I.D.’s (that dead
horse’s ■ glue may stick around for a while),
maintenance (three days for an elevator, a half a
week for a window . . .), etc.
Now you can lay back in your room and smoke
your herbs or meditate, or drink and be mellow if
you want. In the SUNY system here you can do
anything you want in your room if it doesn’t hassle
the rusty, grinding wheels of the system. We of the
M.A.S.S. (Mellowness is Allowing Sloppy Service)
movement aren’t against partying or relaxing. We
simply believe that the “let’s forget the problems
and relax” philosophy is letting the system get away
with too much. We aren’t saying everything in this
University is totally bad (please, we don’t want to be
buried in “Why aren’t you glad to be alive;” letters),
but we would like to hear more voicing of
grievances, see more documentationof the processes
affecting our lives at SUNYAB, and above all, more
action in the direction of restoring good, reliable
human service to the good, reliable human
community here.
So next time your elevator’s oUt Wr three'iWys,
next time you get four recitations and no classes,
next time a candy dispenser eats your quarter, don’t
go to your room to hum your mantra or puff your
pot; try complaining. Not to the little folks on the
bottom either, take it to the top! And put it in The
Spectrum after all, our paper exists to keep us
informed.

seem rather ironic that the institution which created

After all, why would the public want to see its
tax-supported Congressman doze off during a
tedious moment? What purpose would there be in
broadcasting the backroom dealings that take place
during a session? Why should we be entitled to see a
disturbance in the Gallery or a hostile verbal

�Creative Associates

Buffalo a home for
avant-garde music

Will you stand by ma against the coM night
waiting like the rest of those informed about
Palumbo's latest genius. Safety In Numbers? Will
you be at Shea's Buffalo on February 18, not just to

...

experience the crack in the sky but to discover a
blend of Irish folk and rock called Horslips? Will you
finally quit denying yourself the right to expand and

discover new music? Or are you afraid of the lea?

For those people tired of the same old songs, there is an
on-campus alternative. Located in Pritchard Hall, the Center of the
Creative and Performing Arts is "one of the few existing groups of
musicians that rehearse and perform experimental music," according to
managing director Renee Levine.
Established in 1964 by Lucas Foss and Allen Sapp, the Center had
served as a stage for the development and exposure of contemporary
music. Evenings for New Music the Center's continuing concert series
has been performed throughout the United States, Canada, and
Europe. This season's concerts have presented the works of such
composers as John Cage, Lejaren Hiller, Iannis Xenakis, Toru
Takemitsu, and Morton Feldman, the Center's music director.
One of the Center's primary aims is to demystify new music.
Initial audience exposure to these innovative forms has been an
obstacle because media coverage has not been great enough. "Some
people have a preconceived notion that it is noisy or hard to take,"
Levine explained. She dislikes the term "abstract" to describe
contemporary works, because it tends to frighten people. Once
individuals experience this new musical form, many return. Center
Assistant Gail Kramer added, "Historically, it has taken time for any
new music to be exposed and to register in people's ears before it has
been accepted."
Recitals previewed
Another objective of the Center is to provide a platform for
composers to experiment and musicians to work as much as possible
without commercial time limits. Fellowships awarded to resident
members make this possible. Federal, state, and local funding as well as
Rockefeller Foundation Grants provided revenue for the Center. State
University of New York at Buffalo supplied offices and rehearsal rooms
in Pritchard Hall. Creative Associate Recitals by individual members are
regularly previewed in Baird Hall. Evenings for New Music concerts
take place at Albright-Knox Art Gallery, granting an "aural counterpart
to the visual"of the museum.
Levine adknowledges the paradox in the fact that Buffalo, a
working class town, should house one of the country's largest centers
of avant-garde music and film. She is grateful that "Buffalo has become
the climate, being a place which will faster such forms of expression."
Listener input

On Tuesday, Shea's Buffalo will be the scene of
percussive rock, as Santana comas to town,
UUAB and Buff State proudly present this

aggregate of

bongo admirers. Tickets arc not
plentiful, so you'd better hurry.

According to Levine, "Contemporary music is a reflection of

btV/s aYolfeTn htfw
music. Electronic devices, synthesizers, computers, and even lasers
augment conventional instruments. Composers have experimented with
developing musical presentations that affect more than just the sense of
hearing. Some authors wish to maintain control over the audience's
entire environment. These concepts require increased listener input.
Kramer added, "It is like a spectrum, multifaceted, as different as
music before it."
The Center of the Creative and Performing Arts has recorded on
Columbia, Deutsche Grammophon, and Vox Records. Current
members of the Center include John Boulder, percussion; Robert Dick,
flute; Gary Hatt, clarinet; Greg Ketchum, percussion; Nora Post, oboe;
Jan Williams, percussion/conductor; and a Polish couple, Weronika and
Krzysztos Knittel, strings.

story.
The principal character in The Offering is Father
O'Neill, a priest in a fiercely Irish community in
Boston who collects money to aid the Irish freedom

movement. On his first trip to Ireland, he meets
Willie Boyd, the dynamic and powerful leader of the
local sector of the IRA, and Mara MacRaimond, a
woman whose flinching devotion to the cause has
placed her position, not to mention her life, in
jeopardy. Boyd convinces O'Neill that his donations
of $25,000 are being put to use in caring for the
wives and children of men injured and killed in their
fight for independence, when in reality the money is
veing used to make bombs.

Promise withdrawn
When the priest returns to the United States, a
man appearing to be a wealthy industrialist with
Irish heritage approaches him, wishing to donate a
million dollars to the cause before he dies. All are

pleased, especially Boyd.
But IRS investigator complicates the situation

when he reveals to O'Neill that the million dollars
was in fact donated by a reputed gangster. The
United State government is also involved. The feds
helped pave the way for this illegal transfer of funds
in order to placate the IRA in private
while
denouncing them to improve relations with England.
When Father O'Neill realizes the dubious source
of the money, he withdraws his promise to deliver it
to the IRA. And the remainder of the story deals
—

with the retribution felt by the movements
"traitors", which in this book consists mostly of
Willy Boyd asking himself, "Where are they?" and
the Priest stressing to Mara, "NO! I will not take the
money and run."
The style of the book is fast-apced and
abrupt, skipping from scene to scene with such rapid
succession that one's tension is expected to run high.
The sad fact is that instead of tension, all of these
short scenes simply hack up the book's continuity.
For the most part, the description is awkward and
arbitraey, even sometimes silly. For example, 'The
hair tingled on the back of the priest's neck." The
writer might have been better off stressing that the
priest's hair-tingling was the least of his problems at
the time.

A pure heritage
The book is most effective in its description of
Boston's intensely Irish pride and the striking
similarities, as well as important differences, between
the native Irish people and the Irish Bostonians.
While the Irish in Northern Ireland reject English
rule because the British patrol their streets and
frighten their children, the American Irish are more
concerned about the purity of their heritage and are
usually ignorant of the violent misdeeds of the IRA.
Irish solidarity means smashed knees and bludgeoned
heads for those who question the divine purpose of
the movement. The IRA, according to Reid, is an
organization whose evil methods often obstruct the
movemnet's positive ideology.
Reid has chosen a hefty topic for his first novel
and on many counts, he falls short of fulfilling it.
The scenes- where the priest succumbs to evil
temptation are woefully superficial. The political
intrigue is left largely unexamined, leading the reader
to question its importance. And the characters might
as well have been out of a cheap movie. For sure,
John LeCarre need not looke over his shoulder.

The Offering, by James Reid, 223 pp., G.P. Putnam's

The Offering, by James Reid, has been praised
as a masterful suspense and espionage thriller a la

in the book that can be found in the best of

illegalities. The Irish Republican Army, clerical

Husbands, Wives and Live-togethers, by William
Hamilton, Berkeley Windhover, New York
A young woman stares fixed-eyed across the
checkerboard® tablecloth in a cafe, listening to her
excited girlfriend profoundly proclaim, "I'm sort of
para-in love."
So starts the third collection of William
Hamilton's social cartoon collection. Husbands,
Wives and Live-togethers. Hamilton's work is
frequently displayed in The New Yorker. Time and
Newsweek. His past books include Terribly Nice
People and Anti-Social Register.
Hamilton's characteis are taken from upper class
social circles, college campuses and high level
business, and they all suffer from habitual identity
crises brought on by society's ridiculous value
system. A virile man with a mustache and hairy
forearms holds an adoring female in his library and
says, "I love you, and I mean that not just personally
I mean it politically, too." An overwhelmed
looking little kid is treated to a scorching
interrogation from his parents, "Do you have any
idea what your father and I go through with each
other to keep a nuclear family for you?"

Americal seeks superficial ends. True domesticity
becomes a scene in which a husband redines
amorphously onto a couch with a dishrag of a wife
pouring a shot of bourbon for him, where the worst
possible social blunder occurs when your husband
mispronounces "ouevre" in front of friends.

The second part of the book consists of about a
dozen brief character sktches of people like Ernie

EVERYONE WELCOME!

True domesticity
Hamilton's humor is rarely derived from a single
clever line or a novel setting, rather, it is something
the reader probably sees and hears several times
during the course of a week. Thus, the reader can see
himself as a caricature
but a believable one. It is
easy to imagine a couple sauntering down the path
from Squire Hall to Parker Hall, with one of them
exclaiming, "Can you believe the human mind? Do
you know that right at this minute I'm thinking of
amino acids, Thomas Jefferson, and you?" Or how
about relaxing in your room with a pat. pondering,
"If only Haydn could
heard himself in quad."
The primary focus of the book is a
tongue-in-cheek examination of what Americans like
to think of themselves as and the strange parameters
by which they gauge their identities. Much of what
Hamilton's characters hold dear is pathetically cliche
and mundane, but still very amusing. For example, a
stringy-haired housewife budges her mildly conscious
husband and says, "Remember when we used to take
those Italian style walks together?" Hamilton's

into the sexual occupation of the future ("When a
butcher sharpens a big knife, and electric current
runs through the ladies,"), and J.C. Higgens, a man
who has attended private schools all his life, and
who, in his golden years, writes "beautifully
bounded" books on the life of George Washington.
This part, while at times witty and colorful, is less
satisfying than the first. It lacks the spontaneity of
the
earlier cartoons, which present snapshot
observations that tickle rather than plod.
The sparkle of the first portion of the book
more than compensates for the latter. With but a few
sketchy
lines and brush strokes, Hamilton
masterfully portrays the "thick" American, "the one
who clings to plastic ideals and modern
contradictions:"

�Spacek believable 'Verna'
by Harold Goldberg
Contributing Editor
Spacek played a hopeful
When Sissy
mid-western starlet in Vema: USO Girt during the
PBS program. Great Performances a week ago, she
showed the world what dreams were made of.
Spacek starred as a nice, no-talent girl with an
eternally sweet face, her eyes changing with lovable
expressions. This performance was perhaps Spacek's
most believable rple. Watching Vema: USO Girt one
forgets Carrie and feels for this girl's struggle with
the ravage of World War II and the hope of becoming
a star.
Spacek is cutesy, but not because she's cute. She
is not Marilyn Monroe. She is not even Betty Grable.

always shining and hopeful, not trudging onward but
dancing proud taps, albeit without rhythm.
The show itself projects simplicity, and the
camera doesn't do creative justice to the feeling.
When Verna sings "Button Up Your Overcoat", the
camera looks up to Vema, then moves to a close-up
of soldiers, (bad teeth smiling), then back to Verna,
then to the soldiers as a crowd, back to Verna, then
the backs of the crowd looking toward the stage. As

typical and predictable as were the violent scenes of
the Sixities' TV show. Combat these are scenes of
contrived simplicity, and they don't work.
The camera does its creative job best when
combining still and grainy shots of Spacek with real
shot of WWII USO shows. First there's the crowd,
then Danny Kaye, then Spacek; here the viewer
believes the film to be historical reality.
Verna's dream hinges on a belief in herself and
her career. She is the orphan child who steers away
from marriage with a Gl, saying: "Gosh, stars with
my unique talent don't get married... What about
my career? You just don't understand." As a star,
Verna would want clothes and parties and fans and
even a big funeral when she dies. But one must
remember that Verna doesn't covet the trappings of
a star in a materialistic way. All she wants is a part of
her innocent dream to come true. Because of her
desires, there is little room for marriage.
Sissy Spacey
the sounds of the war scare Verna to
;* ■ Only
reality. And then Verna sits, knees to her head in an
alley, shivering and crying. Late in the film she is on
stage doing a Christmas show after nearly being
killed as a forced spectator to battle. At the sounds
of bombs, she stiffens, flashing back to the Gl's
proposal of marriage. She is not frightened by the
stage but she is terrified by reality. She closes her
eyes and sings, with a Spacek grin;

"The moon was all aglow
And heaven was in your eyes
The night that you told me
Those little white lies. . .
"

itnfiirrr '

&gt;To hear

She is the girl back home who you dream about
when fighting a war. Ail those USO shows
supposedly made the war more tolerable. What they
really did was make it more surreal, bringing
happiness in the face of war; entertainment with
bombs in the background. And there she is, a girl
who can't dance or sing, but who believes she can;
who gets away with it because she is energetic. And

cute.
Simple little Verna pacifies the war for the
moment. Maureen, the "B-plus ringer" of the troupe.
sings sensually, but her wrinkles show. She gives the
doughboys happy blues. Eddie, a "second rate"
vaudevillian, makes them laugh with one-liners, fiut
that's too ephemeral. They will remember Verna,

the sound of battle, to think of the marriage
that might have been, is to fathom the possibility of
failure that comes with facing reality. In a scene
filled with melodrama, Verna rides over a mine and
is hit by the charge. Her face is shocked and
unbelieving; the battle has killed her. In prior scenes
she had always moved away from the real war, had
run away from the jeep's destinations. Now the jeeps
and the battle moved away from her. The first
performer to be killed during wartime, Verna gets
her funeral, her star's funeral, from the Army.
Over her coffin, guns are fired while second rate
dignitaries'and generals stand at attention. Only ihe
soldiers knew Verna; They were her fans. She died
fulfilling her hopes by doing the impossible:
combining reality with a dream in a personal way

Buffalo has small
audience for punk
by Carol Schnitzer
Spectrum Music Staff

The "Anarchy on the. Airwaves" concert given by Lip Service
under the audpices of WBFO was attended by a relatively small crowd.
Apparently Buffalo, ha* Pqt V.et g«i*d * graft, audience for punk rock,
though it is growing. The audience sat fairly quietly in their chairs at
first, but later on the band managed to get a number of people
shouting and dancing.
The band itself was mostly dressed in a punkish assortment of
costumes
not omitting leather jackets and blue jeans
except one
guitarist dressed in a tie and an orange bathrobe which turned out to be
a pantsuit. It started with several high-energy renditions of songs by
groups such as the Dammed and the Ramones which were well done
(though they have a looser touch than the Ramones). Finally they
launched into their originals. They concentrate mostly on the
traditional punk subject
technology, aggression, and sexual
disillusion. The song they led off on, 'Telephone Slime"; seemed to be
concerned with the first subject. If I'm wrong here, it's because I
couldn't hear all the words.
All and all. Lip. Service performed 11 original songs. Some were
about predatory sexuality and the disillusion with the opposite sex that
can result from it, such as "Love Renagade", a frentic shouter, and
"Ain't gonna Marry That Girl," their hit single which struck me as their
best song. It is about
guess what
romantic disillusion, and clicks
mostly because of the repetition of the chorus in the middle. Besides
those songs and others there were "Raised on Assasination", an anthem
to aggression which I chose as the second-best song, and to close the
first set another technological song, 'The TV Made Me Do It".
Most of the antics onstage were done by Mark Rage, the vocalist
(the names of the other band members are as strange). He indulges in a
number of typical punk mannerisms such as kneeling and crawling on
the stage and at one point hitting it with a baseball bat. A special trick
of his is to jump onto a springboard and sbmmersault onto the stage at
the beginning of a song. As the show went on he gradually stripped
down to leather vest.
The band adjourned for 45 minutes and some of the audience left,
but the people who stayed were stirred up more as a result of the
recorded music and the dance contest the radio station put on. By the
time Lip Service came on again some people were dancing in the back
of the room, and the audience in general was more enthusiastic.
This time Lip Service performed a number of songs by other bands
such as the Dead Boys and the Kinks (one was Lou Reed's "Sweet
Jane"). By this time, the audience was showing some of the enthusiasm
the band had asked for early in the first set. The band obviously live
the punk and proto-punk artists whose songs they perform, and their
versions are pretty good. At 12 they signed off and left the stage but
the crowd shouted fqr the Sex Pistols' "God Save The Queen." The
band went onstage again and obliged it with an energetic version of the
song which was the best thecover they did in the evening.
I don't know if Lip Service will burn down Rome, but they'll do.
As Patti Smith said, the important thing is the energy each new wave
band creates and it doesn't matter if, they're not great artists. It was
evident though, that Buffalo is still slow in coming around to punk
rock, and that is rather regrettable from the standpoint of the band.
Still, it's obvious taht punk rock has come here to stay. I am reminded
of Richard Hell's song, "Blank Generation," which I heard on the
loudspeakers before Lip Service's first set: if punk rock kefeps
on like it
has been, this generation won't be blank anymore.

�First Meditations (For Quartet) (ABC-Impulte)
Another chapter of the expanding Coltrane

RECORDS

legacy.

From the eye of A Love Supreme (1964), the
insight already flowing strongly from John Coltrane
and many others (we mentioned a direct influence,
the omnidirectional Sun Ra, last week) seemed to
burst boldly upon the world of 1965. No longer
could the advancements in that period be shunhed or
explained so simply as a pseudo-technological "New
Thing" or even a "New Wave" (where the term
originated, incidentally).
When Coltrane, born from (among others) the
creative cubicles of Monk and Miles (a mysterioso
kind of blue, indeed!) stepped further foreward on
the natural growth and beauty of his own surging
musical quest, he found many an upraised eyebrow
where people expected to hear another placid vogue
of-cool, whatever people think that is (Even the
cartoons tell; you have to be HOT to really be
cool!).

The

Coltrane took by
most of those who should have known
better: The "historians" who had been following
Coltrane since his early growth, and many musicians.
Many to this day forget that it is a balance of
predictability and surprise, creatively presented,
which is true entertainment. Coltrane, for all his
efforts on his own before 1965 (and they're quite a
few, from Impressions to India to the prime
Acknowledgement of A Love Supreme ), was still
typecast by most (albeit less so by this time) as a
member of the "reliable" (?) Miles school (which
also was criticized, too often, wrongly). He was
salable alone because of this legacy, yet Coltrane (as
Duke. Ellington) refused to become his past merely
because of economics, though (thoughtfully)
economics were not ignored.
To the end Coltrane could summon, in endless
differentiation, the quietly proud romanticism of
Naima and the resurgent sparkle of My Favorite
Thing. Point being, Coltrane never became obsessed
with things.
his concern was people. His decree
was the Holy Spirit, and his edict expressed thru
unprecedented fact is that

Broadway" represent the degree of acceptance, the nationwide
popularity, that was recently bequested on Benson.
Two albums previous to this one, he sang on his first song ("This
Masquerade") since starting in the music market. That initial vocal
experiment payed off in his first gold record, but Benson did pay a
price. His mellow Stevie Wonderish voice was the one ingredient
lacking, in his long history of musical endeavors, that kept him from
previously attaining commercial success. But when he added this, he
cut out some of his previous perfection, that of guitar.
So it goes
V
There is some hope in sight, however. Benson, seemingly ready to
overcome his slip into vocalland (encountered, to some degree, on the
reasonably satisfying In Flight has moved forward with a great musical
achievement, that of Weekend in L.A..
The title cut, an instrumental reminiscent of "Breezin," opens the
album with a sparkle. The superb backup band plays unerringly,
highlighted by some fine Jorge Dalto piano, Benson mesmerizes, firing
out guitar riffs as if he were born to do it. And maybe he was.
The somewhat hackneyed "On Broadway" follows, with a
reasonably decent Benson treatment. It's possible that this song
shouldn't have been included, however, since
played out.
Side two opens with a vocal cut, "Down Here on the Ground."
The sound is light and breezy, again with the omnipresent sweetness of
Dalto's piano. Stanley Banks on bass, and Harvey Mason, on drums, are
constantly spewing forth a solid rhythm line.
"California P.M.," a nice instrumental, follows, with probably the
poorest song of the lot, "The Greatest Love of All," ending the side.
This song is familiar but I can’t quite place it. The chorus sounds like a
cross between a Boz Scaggs song, and Gordon Lightfoot's "If You
Could Read My Mind."
"WindsQog," on side threee, displays Benson at his virtual best.
Again, calling on the efforts of the entire band, this instrumental
features a fluid guitar line aimed to stun, a Benson trademark.
"Ode to Kudo", a song showing off Benson's acoustic
achievements is also solid proof of Tommy LiPuma's spotless
production. For a live album, the
sound is surprisingly good.
Benson, realizing his success directly attributable to a fine piece of
Leon Russell music ('This Masquerade"), has included another Russell
composition, "Lady
This might be another gooif choice for a
single, if, indeed, there is to be one.
George Benson has been plucking guitar for quite some time. His
efforts prior to Breezin' had established him in the uppermost jazz
circles. With Breezin' and In Flight he won acceptance from the pop
audience. It's nice to see talent as great as this, release a product that
can satisfy both, and even impress both.
Benson's sudden acclaim, peaking at this Roxy performance, is
summed up exquisitely in "On Broadway":

message, yet it wilt become plain to anyone really
listening (and to listen, you must hear, here) that
more than mere intensity fills the ear with an
aromatic air.
This newest issue from ABC-1 mpulse bears this
out bluntly. The original version of the suite
Meditations (whose premiere brought Pharoah

Saunders and Rashied All foreward), this is from the
late 1965 recordings of the Cottrane Quartet.
Anyone who needs more info than this had best get
this album fast! It should be secured quickly
anyhow, for this is Music that demands to be heard
and not shuffle-butted or hidden. From the start the
Quartet paints dramatic portraits of sky and step
meeting like stormfronts in realization. Unlike the
inevitable folly of human war. Nature's tempests can
result in the relentless rains of Life and the rainbow
representing the common bond of breaths to be
drawn. Coltrane, on tenor saxophone, draws more
than mighty breaths.

spiritual might and lucidity. . . lacing umbilical cords
loose with a tautness matched only by the bowman's
accuracy of the master bassviolihist Jimmy Garrison,

of our humanity. Thru him, the tom-toms truly cry

Volcanoes' fury and wizard's humor come to

Coltrane's Infinity LP, and it would be interesting if
ABC-1 mpulse could do what Verve did later with
some Wes Montgomery tapes; to let one hear the

Chicken coop squawks
To the Editor.

Like many other UB students, 1 like to take
of the discounts offered in the Dollars-Off
book. One such alleged discount was offered by the
Chicken Coop. The Chicken Coop’s coupon claimed
that if you buy fifty chicken wings, they would
charge you just $4.75 instead of the regular $5.50.
I decided to take advantage of this, so my
roommate and I ordered fifty chick wings each. But,
much to our dismay, we were charged $11.22 with
our coupons instead of $9.50 (which is what one

facts, right?). When we asked if there was some
mistake, the lady behind the counter said that the
prices went up, and there’s simply nothing she could
do about it.

I’m not bitching about paying the extra $1.22;

Guest Opinion
by Richard Korman
Special to The Spectrum

I could not help but be baffled by the article
about pot which appeared two weeks ago in The
Spectrum.
The article detailed the results of a Tulane
Medical School experiment which
found that smoking only half a joint a day may
spare one the “lasting physiological damage to the
brain” which results when an entire marijuana
cigarette is smoked per day. The study, performed
on rhesus monkeys, showed that after six months
of abstinence the brain waves of heavy and
moderate smoking primates remained disturbed.
Additionally, the emotion controlling part of the
brain which collects THC
the active chemical in
pot
was still damaged. Changes in the nerve cells
in this part of the brain could be responsible for
the apathy associated with pot smokers, according
to the study’s director.

The findings were revealed to a panel of
scholars in New York which concluded that pot
causes lasting

harm even in moderate doses. The

purported harmlessness of pot is a great myth, a
panel member admonishes us, and SAT scores will
remain low as long as students get high.
Interestingly, the writer of the story in The
Spectrum chose to undercut the study’s findings
with argumentative quotations from the local
champions of pot.
The study furnishes potsmokers with a good
technical account of the bumt-outedness which
heavy toking seems to bring on But the dialogue
between the champions and enemies of pot

somehow misses the point.

There is a limit to this, though. Continued use
of drugs, particularly pot, is not an open road to
intellectual advance. Instead, it seems to aid
thought most in the first few years of use when
the smoker’s mind is young and fresh. After a
while, it becomes just another high. For people my
age, pot has outlasted its usefulness as an
instrument of rebellion. Drugs were popularized in
the ’60’s as part of a larger interest in exotic
philosophies and altered states of consciousness.

The emphasis has shifted from experimentation, to
a drug’s capability to induce euphoria, reduce
tension or enhance music, film or television. There

To the Editor
It comes as no surprise to this individual that
the administration is failing in its duty to operate
this University with responsibility. Issues pointing to
this lack of responsibility include the ID card
situation last fall. It seems enough people were
bitching but no one would admit fault for it. Also
the Review Committee’s Report ( Spectrum Jan. 25,
pg 1) stating that a sense of academic deterioration
cannot be laid only to physical problems. The
administration’s lack of responsibility had a part in
its creation, but I’d like to see what they could do to
turn it around. Now an item of personal
consequence: The Financial Aid office left my loan
,

application sitting in its office for 10 weeks. That’s
a lack of responsibility, it’s just that they
are stupid bozos for forgetting. Wake up, you people
in charge! In this day and age, we need
administrators who are responsible to the modern
university; here it seems they left responsibility to
not only

the students.

No trips
To the Editor.

In Monday’s Blizzard edition of The Spectrum,
had the audacity to place a full page
advertisement urging dorm students to join “Your
dorm student government that gives you more.”
More of what? Maybe more lies:
As an IRC member this year living on Main
Street, IRC has had NONE of the following activities
that they state they “give you:” parties, beer blasts,
trips to Toronto, talent nights, buses to concerts,
trips to Niagara Falls, happy hours, concerts, ice
skating, roller skating and coffee houses. It’s bad
enough that this organization did not do anything in
Fall 1977, but printing falacies is a disgrace.
1 am personally aware that the Main Street
Council was not to blame for last semester’s
stagnation and so 1 hope that IRC’s Main Body who
was at fault gets to work on making these lies into
realistic truths for this Spring semester.

Think it’s cold outside? The experts have been
saying that die next ice-age is approaching. Well, we
don’t know for sure if that’s true but the climate
over the world is changing, and it may very well be
due to man’s activities.
Until recently it was assumed that the degree
that man changed the earth’s climate was negligible
compared to natural phenomena such as forest fires
and volcanic eruptions. But there is now evidence
that man is changing local climates; this could later
change world wide climates.
For the past few hundred thousand years, the
earth has undergone ice ages and warm interglacial
periods. The Last ice age took place 8000 to 16,000
years ago. For the last 10,000 years global
temperatures haven’t fluctuated much compared to
earlier times, but there have been small changes. The
overall average temperature for the northern
hemisphere increased by about 0.6 degrees Celsius
from 1880 to 1940, but between 1940 and the
present, it dropped about 03 degrees.
These minor changes may not seem like much,
but they could signal the trend toward long range
shifts. A mere three degree change in temperature
could have a monumental effect across the globe. If
the average temperature were to go up these three
degrees, aO the world’s glaciers would start to melt.
Those that melted would trigger a chain reaction and
melt the rest. Consequently, all the world’s major
cities which lie on coastlines would be flooded out.
If the temperature went down three degrees, our
oceans would start to freeze, and glaciers would
begin to cover the world.
Carbon dioxide was not always considered an air
pollutant; but a natural component of the

atmosphere that was cycled through air, water and
plant and animal life by means of photosynthesis
and respiration. Presently, carbon dioxide levels are
increasing at a dangerously fast rate.
As part of the natural carbon cycle, the ocean
dissolves about half its carbon in two to five years.
Without this factor, levels of carbon dioxide would
have plants and trees on earth, yet man has been
clearing more and more land for housing and
industrialization. Even if man were not doing this,
three billion acres of new forests would be needed
each year to absorb the carbon dioxide man makes
each year by burning fossil fuel such as coal and oil.
Incoming sunlight is made up of ultraviolet
light, visible light, and infra-red radiation. The ozone
layer filters out ultraviolet light, and carbon dioxide
and water vapor filter out infra-red radiation. It’s
mostly visible light that enters our atmosphere and is
absorbed by sea, land and clouds. The earth radiates
this light back into the atmosphere as long-wave
heat. Carbon dioxide, like the glass in a greenhouse,
acts as a one way filter and allows visible light to
enter while preventing long-wave heat radiation from
escaping. Thus, if the carbon dioxide level increases,
more heat radiation will be trapped, and the average
global temperature will rise.
Consumption
It is predicted that by the year 2050, the carbon
dioxide levels in our atmosphere will double. This
could raise temperatures by two degrees only one
degree away from that disastrous triggering level. If
the three degree level is reached, the self-amplifying
melt of Arctic and Antarctic ice would be set in
motion, irreversible for millions of years. Then 20
percent of our planet’s land, including most of our
cities, would be consumed by the ocean.

i he question or guns

for University Police
President Robert Ketter is among those who oppose the arming of
University Police officers.
Assistant to the President Ron Stein said, “The President is not
convinced that University Police should be armed.” Kctter’s opinion is
consistent with previous statements he has made on this subject. As
early as 1972,Ketter said, “I would like to see a program where we can
explore alternative methods of law enforcement.”
The President is the only individual who can permit University
Police officers to carry guns. A referendum on arming will accompany
the Student Association in March.
The University Police Administration remains tight-lipped on this
issue. Director Lee Griffen offered a terse , “no comment” on the
subject, saying that his opinion had been made clear in the past.
Assistant Director Jack Eggert replied in the same fashion.
Irt 1972, Griffen said, “It is immoral to expect an unarmed officer
to go up against someone who is armed. It is no longer correct to think
of the University as the protective little womb and it is difficult to
fight crime without the necessary backup.”
Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia said he sponsored
the referendum to “find our student opinion.” Student opinion has
been expressed on the issue. Stephen Bogorad commented, “It’s, like
giving a child a car. It only invites trouble.” The sentiment of
many
students was echoed by Laura Schoeneman when she said, “I don’t
think there is enough danger present in the University that would
warrant Police carrying guns.”

Royals come from behind to galore at Clark Hall
win over Canisius, 72 —71
SPORTS

There will be a sport to suit almost anyone’s taste this weekend at
Clark Hall, with basketball Friday night and a quadruple header
Saturday.

by Paige Miller
Spectrum Copy Editor

Royals’ guard Regina Frazier
picked up a loose ball and raced
three-quarters of the length of the
court for a layup with just five
seconds left, to give Buffalo a
come-from-behind 72-71 victory
over Canisius, Tuesday night at
Gark Hall. Buffalo had trailed by
seven with under four minutes to
go, but held Canisius scoreless the
rest of the way. The two teams
now own identical 6-4 records.
The win was in sharp contrast
to a game Saturday at Ithaca,
when the Royals threw away
several chances to tie the score in
the final minute. “The Ithaca
game gave us the experience,’’ said
Buffalo co-captain Paula Hills.
“We knew what we had tc do this
time.”
The comeback began when UB
forward Pam Lerminiaux hit a
jumper to cut the Griffins’ lead to
five. Then Frazier scored on a
jump shot, and Hills hit on a
sweeping hook shot, assisted
nicely by forward Dottie Holtz.

Full court pressure
Canisius got the ball with 45
seconds left, leading by one. They
tried to use as much time as
possible, but guard Annette
Sieracki missed an off-balance
shot as the 30 second clock was

down. The rebound came
down into the hands of Buffalo
guard Kris Schum and Griffin
center Pat Aronson.
Neither player controlled the
tip, and the ball went to Frazier,
who scored the winning basket.
Full-court pressure by the Royals
forced Canisius to throw the ball
away, securing the win.
Earlier, Buffalo had taken a
three point halftime lead, thanks
largely to a three-guard offense
Buffalo had a lot of trouble
rebounding
only Lerminiaux
was effective off the boards in the
early going
so Buffalo’s three
guards, Schum,
Frazier and
Marybeth MacLean found a new
way to start the break; the steal.
With Schum and Frazier acting as
the head thieves and MacLean
providing some pretty driving
shots, Buffalo outscored Canisius
10-1 during one stretch in the first

running

half.

Slow feet
Part of

the problem with
rebounding was that Buffalo had
returned at four in the morning
from Cortland and was physically
exhausted. “I was really tired,”

Lerminiaux said “We weren’t
boxing out.”
Hills also felt that Buffalo’s
physical condition caused them to
commit more fouls than usual
“We were slower on our feet,”
Hills noted. “We committed more

fouls because we weren’t moving
we were trying to play defense
with our hands instead of our
feet.” Buffalo’s big rcbounders,
Lilley
center
Janet
and
Lerminiaux were in foul trouble
throughout most of the game.
Canisius, which was playing
without injured star center Carcn
Jackimiak, found a suitable
replacement in freshman Aronson,
who scored 34 points, bewildering
the Buffalo
defense with a
combination of inside muscle and
nothing-but-net outside shooting.
Aronson also had 17 rebounds,
and was the key to Canisius’
second half surge. Hills was the
Royals’ high scorer with 18,
followed by Schum’s 16 and
Frazier’s 10.
Buffalo had a rough night at
Cortland Monday, losing 98-65 in
the
first
round
of
the
Manufacturers
Hanover
Invitational. UB coach Liz
Counsins, however, was proud of
the fact that UB held Red
Dragons ten points under their
season’s average. She also noted
that the Royals scored more
points against them than any
other area team. Buffalo center
Lilley had an outstanding game
with 26 points and 21 rebounds.
-

Lilley is currently tenth in the
state in rebounding.
The Royals will face Big Four
rival Niagara tomorrow night at
Clark Hall at 7 p.m.

The men’s basketball team, struggling along with a 2-13 record,
will face the University of Maine tonight at 8 p.m. The Bulls lost to
Maine last year, and will be trying to break a six game losing streak.
Recently, guard Ed Johnson and forward Larry Jones have been red
hot for the Bulls, bringing their season’s average to 18.0 and 16.3

respectively.
Saturday, three sports will be in action at 2 p.m. The wrestlers,
who lost to the top-ranked team in the state, Syracuse, will play
Bloomsbuig State in the main gymnasium. The Bulls have relied heavily
on “Death Row” this year, i.e. their upper weights, beginning with 158
pounder Kirk Anderson. The grapplers are 5-3 so far this year.

Different strokes
v
The fencers, Buffalo’s only co-ed team, will be at home against
Colgate in the basement of Clark Hall at 2 p.m. The fencers defeated
RIT last weekend and they will be making their first home appearance
in two years (they were not a varsity team last year).
In Clark Pool, Buffalo’s men’s swimming team will host Alfred.
Recently, the Bulls have been getting outstanding performances out of
diver Mike Doran and all-purpose swimmer JimBrenner.
Finally, at 7 p.m., the women’s basketball team will play Big Four
rival Niagara. Last year, the Purple Eagles finished last in the Big Four,
but several recruits have made them a much improved team. Buffalo
has been led by sophomore forward Paula Hills and freshman center
Janet Lilley, who is currently tenth in the state in rebounding.
And, if for some reason, you don’t feel like traveling all the way in
to Clark Hall, the UB Frisbec team will take on RIT and
Camegie-Mellon at the Bubble Saturday.

Tennis tourney
The Department of Recreation is sponsoring a
Kg Four Open Tennis Championship at the Bubble

Water vapor tends to condense around dust
particles. If there is more pollution, there are more
particles, more water drops, and more clouds,
Excessive clouds can surround the earth and prevent
die sun’s rays from entering the atmosphere Clouds
have a high albedo, so they would reflect all the heat
and light back into outer space; then the earth Would
cool. Thus, particle pollution may bring on the next
ice-age.
Of vital concern to man and all other life on
earth is the presence of the ozone layer. The ozone
layer exists in the atmosphere about 12 to 35 miles
up. It serves as a shield, protecting the earth’s surface
from most of the ultraviolet radiation found in the
aim’s rays. If these rays readied the earth in full
intensity, all life would be radiated and destroyed.
Man is destroying this protective layer with the
at an altitude of about
the stratosphere of the
layer. The exhaust emissions of the SST’s
i

in time alter the composition of the
stratosphere, and possibly the ozone layer. This
would not only affect life, but change the climate. It
is predicted that the operation of a fleet of 500
SST’s could halve the amount of ozone in our
atmosphere within one year,
Another threat to the ozone layer is through the
release of aerosol sprays, which contain compounds
called fluorocarbons. Molecules of fluorocarbons
drift upward to the stratosphere and absorb
radiation. They arc then decomposed, releasing
chlorine which attacks molecules of ozone,
To exist is to heat the atmosphere. Taking
breaths, moving your arm, driving a car, switching on
lights; all add heat to our environment. The
man induced heat in the environment s dependent
upon three factors the number of energy users, the
amount of energy used, and the efficiency of energy
conversion. The more the population increases, the
more heat that will be created. This is called thermal
pollution.
Thermal pollution is already altering the
weather of urban regions, and could alter world wide
climate patterns directly; from the heat-carbon
dioxide content. The heat limit of the earth’s
atmosphere and how much time it will take to reach
this limit is not exactly known. Every American is
now injecting into the environment a heat load
equivalent to 125 hundred watt light bulbs burning
continuously, and the energy use of the United
States is increasing rapidly.
Climatologists theorize that the graph of the
earth’s climate is like a sine wave on a sine wave.
Presently we might be going down from a crest to a
trough of the small sine wave, as temperatures are
presently dropping. Yet, on the overall sine wave, we
have no idea where we are and whether we’re going
up or down.
The small amount of evidence available shows
that man is drastically changing the climate in urban
areas, and may soon affect the climate over the
entire world. Steps for prevention must start now,
for once changes initiate, they will be impossible to
stop for millions of years.

could

In still another way. man might be heating the
earth,’* temperature. The percentage of short wave
radiation reflected back by the earth’s surface is
called die “albedo.” This is an important property
because it determines how fast the surface heats up.
The albedo of water, for example is very high as it
does not reflect much light. Snow and ice, on the
other hand, do.
Deserts usually have a high albedo, but man has
been irrigating them and planting crops, thus
reducing the albedo while increasing the amount of
heat that the earth absorbs. Urbanization and
de-forestation will also lower albedo, raise
temperatures and flood the world.
However, some scientists feel that a new ice-age,

Delia to bring issue to vote
by Daniel S. Parker
Campus Editor

Student Association President Dennis Delia
announced at a Student Senate meeting Monday that
he will bring to student vote the question of arming
University Police.
The referendum, which will be decided March
1-3, was one of four non-binding referenda
announced by Delia at the sparsely attended meeting
on Monday.
Delia explained that he is not taking a position,
saying, “I just wanted to find out what students
want. The question of arming University Police has
not been raised publicly since 1975.”
SA Acting Executive Vice President Jeff Lessoff
explained that the President of SA has the right to
bring anything he wants to a student referendum.
Said Lessoff, “As far as Dennis is concerned, these
resolutions are just student opinion polls. 1 think it’s
the most idiotic thing that I ever heard in my life.
They are not policemen and I don’t think that

they’ve gone through the proper training to carry
guns. I don’t remember him asking the Executive
Committee, but he doesn’t have to.”
The President speaks
The other three referenda, to be brought to
student vote in March are:
Should the mandatory student activity fee be
increased to $70 for every student except freshmen?
(Freshmen currently pay $70.)
Should this University have a “Spring
Weekend”?

Detroit Mayor Coleman Young
Jimmy
Carter promised
in his
presidential campaign to reduce military
spending by $5-7 billion. Contained within
his new $500 billion FY7$ budget,
revealed to the public on Monday, January
23, is a request for a record high $115.2
billion for the Department of Defense. This
represents a $9.9 billion increase in
military spending over the current fiscal
year, or, after inflation allowances are
made, a three percent increase in real
spending for the military.
President Carter’s FY79 budget thus
represents a broken promise.
In his inaugural speech. President Carter
said that he would work for a world with
“zero nuclear weapons.” However, his
budget for FY79 fuels the arms race by
continuing to fund a U.S. strategic arms
buildup. While our nation’s strategic strike
force is projected to remain constant with
regard to the number of land-based and
sea-based missiles, Carter is proposing

“improvements”

development of the Cruise missile and
construction of an addition billion dollar
Trident submarine.
In presenting his new budget to the
public and the Congress, President Carter
remarked “the first complete budget of a
new administration is its most important.
It is the administration’s first full
statement of its priorities, policies and
proposals for meeting our nation’s needs.”
Unfortunately, Carter’s FY79 budget is
not much different than the FY78 budget
it inherited from the Ford Administration
last January. While Carter contends that his
FY79 budget is “realistic, responsible and
responsive to our nation’s critical needs,” it
calls for excessive levels of military
spending while slighting programs to meet
human needs. In particular, it should be

High levels of

military spending cost us jobs in at least
two ways.
First, weapons spending is capital

intensive, rather than labor intensive. It
takes about $50,000 to create one job
building weapons. In contrast, according to
figures from the Bureau of Labor Statistics,
it takes about $30,000 to create a job in
housing, $25,000 to create a job in the
health, welfare and sanitation area, and
only $20,000 to create a job in education.
Thus, while weapons spending creates jobs,
it also creates unemployment; it represents
a net loss of jobs when compared to other
kinds of spending.

Studies have shown that redirecting
resources away from military spending will

result in gn improved economy and a net
increase in jobs. For instance, a recent
study of the Philadelphia area economy

conducted by University of Pennsylvania
professor N. Glickman concludes that a
$100 million transfer from regional
military spending to regional revenue
sharing funds would provide a big boost to
the local economy. The economy would
produce $70 million more in goods and
services and 10,000 more jobs after such a
transfer. (See “Does Military Spending

World countries such as South Korea.
Indonesia, the Philippines, Iran and many
latin American countries.
Much of Carter’s proposed military
budget is for projecting U S. power and
influence overseas. As such, it is a
misnomer to refer to the military budget as
a “defense” budget. Part of the
expenditures reflect legitimate defense
needs; however, like the unnecessary
expenditures that would increase our
unneeded nuclear overkill capacity, the
Carter budget calls for billions of dollars
for expansive foreign troop deployments
and covert CIA operations that are not
necessary for the defense of the United
States.
If we adopt a non-interventionist
foreign policy,, and thus, redefine U.S.
military policy so that it serves only
defense purposes, billions of dollars would
be saved and the world-wide reputation of
the United States as a defender (as opposed
to a subverter) of human rights would be
enhanced.
S.
The Perpetuatii
■*/ Deficit

Spending
The Carter budget for FY79
projects an $973.7 billion national debt by
the end of FY79. During the next fiscal
year, $48.99 billion, or nearly 10 percent
of the federal budget, will have to be spent
to cover interest on this debt. As deficit
spending continues, more and more money
will be siphoned away from other programs
to pay this interest.
The arms race, war and continued high
levels of military spending contribute to
die national debt. Since WWII the United
States has spent over $ 1.7, trillion on the
military. The Vietnam war alone cost the
United States over 50,000 lives and $150
billion. Continued military spending far in
excess of what is needed for legitimate
defense purposes compounds debt related
problems.

The two-credit Physical Education requirement for freshmen at
this University is balancing on a beam
with an over-demand for
classes on one side and limited facilities on the other.
“We cannot meet the demand,” said Acting Dean of
Undergraduate Education Walter Kunz about the number of students
wishing to take gym classes.
The future of the Physical Education requirement was put in
question last year when a high demand for gym courses and limited
facilities restricted seniors from completing the requirement within
four years
The two-credit requirement has been reinstated for only this year’s
freshmen. “The problem will definitely reoccur,” said Coordinator of
Basic Instruction for the Department of Recreation, Athletics and
Related Instruction (RAR1) Viola Dicbold. Diebold believes the
problem will be “worse than before, unless a better way is found.”
One possible solution would be to increase credit for contact hours
in gym courses, said Diebold. “This is the only way this problem can be
solved. Because of many factors, it is becoming harder for a student to
take a gym course.” She cited the inflexibility of most students’
schedules, the unreliability of the Bubble, and the concentration of
facilities on the Main Street Campus, along with the relocation at
Amherst as contributing to the problem.
Kunz believes that increasing credit for contact hour in gym
courses will be a superficial solution and hardly “pract.cal.” He sees
this proposal as “flying in the face of the Carnegie Unit.” The Carnegie
Unit, recently reaffirmed by the Faculty-Senate’s Report on Curricular
Structure, stipulates that one semester hour of credit will be given for
fifteen sessions of 50 minutes duration in a class, requiring two hours
outside preparation.

NFG consumers rally
for payment boycott
'

In a move designed to force the National Fuel Gas Company
(NFG) to sit down and discuss constant rising gas rates, the Citizens
Alliance Group launched a one-hundred day boycott of bill
payment by the consumers of the Western New York area. This
action, effective immediately, was initiated at a three hour rally
held in the Buffalo A. Erie County Public Library’s Auditorium
Saturday afternoon, January 28, 1978.
yi
The goal of the boycott' is to have consumers of the services of
'•

■

,

National Fuel Gas send their payments and bills to the Citizens

Alliance, in order to raise $500,000 to be put into an account. This
goal, if reached, would provide a very strong negotiating advantage
to the group. The one-hundred days was chosen because the gas
company starts to shut off service to area residents in
one-hundred-five days, leaving the Alliance an extra five days to
take alternative action should the goal fail.
The Citizens Alliance, oo-headed by Arthur Pellnat, of Schiller
Park Organized Taxpayers, is designed to unite government,
churches, and citizen groups to “wage a war” on the gas company
and force them to listen to the demands. According to James
Catalano, a speaker at the rally and a member of Neighborhood
Information Committee, the only way to make NFG listen is to
“hit them where it hurts, the pocket.” Catalano went on to say that
by doing so, the boycott would ruin NFG’s budgetary plans,
making their cash flow quite a bit tighter, and hopefully short. The
action would force the gas company to be in need of the revenues
from the withheld bills, and in order to obtain these funds, they
would have to sit down at the bargaining table, Catalano added.
The demands of the Citizens Alliance Group include:
Withdrawal of the proposed $6.7 million dollar rate increase
expected within the early part of the year; a $10 dollarrebate to all
of its residential customers (which was granted to customers in
other parts of the state by three other gas companies); a
moratorium on service shut-offs during the winter months
(November thru April); a price cut on synthetic gas(SNG);a more
flexible policy on billing for those in the fixed income bracket;
adherence to the monthly meter reading policy ; acceptance of the
net amount on past gas bills as a settlement with the Gtizens

Alliance.

by Dan Barry
Staff Writer

Vice President for Academic
Ronald
Bunn
has
responded to a Committee Report
arid
Graduate
Teaching
�n
Assistantship policy by agreeing in
principle with recommendations
to raise the minimum stipend level
of TAs and GAs. However, Bunn
failed to put a definite time limit
of his
implementation
on
proposals and the issue of
minimum
remains
stipends
unsettled, according to President
of
the
Graduate
Student
Association (GSA) R. Nagarajan.
The committee
comprised
predominantly of administrators
took a firm “no exceptions”
stand of minimum stipends. Bunn,
however, seeks a much more
liberal policy, allowing stipend
adjustment “to reflect differing
levels of responsibility.” This
conflict, coupled with Bunn’s
failure
to
set
down
implementation times, has led to
dissatisfaction among graduate
students with Bunn’s response.
The Academic Affairs Advisory
Committee on Graduate and
Teaching
Assistantships
was
commissioned by Bunn last Spring
to examine certain issues of
concern to TAs and GAs. The
committee
recommended
a
minimum of $2800 to be
eestablished no later than Spring
1978.
Bunn, in his reply to the

Racial connotations?

—Jenson

‘Sambo’s eatery urged
to change its handle
Although “Sambo” signs continue to spin in the wind around

Buffalo, the SUNY at Binghamton community is turning them into
happy animals. Due to student concern. Student Association (SA)
representatives at Binghamton urged restaurant officials to change the

area’s franchise name to the “Jolly Tiger” because they claimed
“Sambo” has “racist connotations.”
According to Sambo’s officials, the restaurant’s name was derived
from the names of Sam D. Battistone and F. Newell Bohnett, company
co-chairpersons. But some think that the name was derived from “The
Story of Little Black Sambo,” a 77 year-old children’s book that has
been condemmed by some as “racially demeaning and derogatory to
blacks.”
Some of the original restaurants in the 20 year-old chain were
decorated with scenes from the children’s story; the motif of the tiger
who chased Sambo through the woods is still used today on menus and
other decor.

A definite decision
Historically, “Sambo” was a derogatory stereotype depicting the
Divil War slave as ignorant, mischievous, sub-human and lustful.
Historians and psychologists call this the “sham characteristic” which
maintains, “Even though a person or a group of people may not possess
these degrading characteristics, they purposely take them on in order
to escape degredation and physical injury or harm.”
There is some concern that the name change may induce financial
losses. Sambo’s has a national reputation and ad campaign while Jolly
Tiger Restaurants, a subsidiary chain of Sambo’s does not. Nonetheless,
the Binghamton based franchise “has definitely made a decision to
change its name ‘Sambo’s’ to ‘The Jolly Tiger,’ and new signs and new
menus have been ordered to effectuate the change of that restaurant,”
according to a restaurant official.
A Sambo’s advertising agent said, “The restaurant name was not
intended as a racial slur.” He added that the “company runs successful
Sambo’s Restaurants in Los Angeles, where there is a large black
population as well as a black mayor.” However, rising concern has
caused name and decor changes at Sambo’s in and about New York
State and at other outlets around the country.
These “new” Jolly Tiger restaurants have different menus and the
dining atmosphere is more elaborate than Sambo’s. A representative
from the national food chain said, “Jolly Tiger restaurants do not make
money and the company is thinking of abandoning them.”
Owners of the Buffalo area franchises said they have “no
intentions of changing their names to Jolly Tiger” and reported that
they had no knowledge of the situation in Binghamton.
Students at this University have mixed emotions about the
restaurant name “Sambo’s.” One student claimed it “was very
derogatory. I’m glad someone is trying to change the name.” Another
student said, “The name never occurred to me as being racist.” Many
students agreed, however that “The Jolly Tiger” is just as bad a name.
Summing it up, one student responded, “1 couldn’t care less about the
name

�EDITORIAL
Military vs. jobs
President Jimmy Carter is thinking ahead. The budget he
proposed for 1979, released to the public last Monday, is a
most complicated document not easily read and definitely
not easily understood. But if the success of his term as
President is judged by the smoothness of the American
economy, as outlined in his budget, and not by new, more
efficient programs cutting bureaucratic waste and redirecting
national priorities, Carter could get reelected President in
1980.
Carter's budget reflects his own priorities and those of
the officials closest to him. It lacks "large, dramatic new
social initiatives" and a "radical departure from Republican
budgets of the past eight years/' according to such experts as
Hedrick Smith, former Moscow bureau chief of the New
York Times.
Although he promised to cut military spending by $5—7
billion during his campaign, the proposed new defense
budget of $115.2 billion represents an increase of more than
three percent over the current fiscal year. Much of this
money will go to NATO reinforcements in Europe and will
probably lead to a similar buildup of troops, weapons,
missies and airplanes on the part of European countries.
Of major interest to universities across the country
should be the small increase in support of scientific and
technological research and development. Of the total outlay
of $27 billion, more than $13 billion will be spent by the
military. .Much of this money will be allocated as research
grants to major universities. With more than half of the $2
billion increase in funding going to the military, a small
increase in the amount of military research done on college
campuses will result
not enough to set an entire
generation on fire, but of some significance nonetheless.
Although sharp increases were granted the newly formed
Department of Energyin theory to finance solar energy
projects, the figures belay the intent of the program. While
research into solar electricity is given a boost, funds for the
demonstration of the more developed technology of solar
heating are cut. In addition, department officials felt that
commerctally viable technologies should be developed
privately rather than by the government.
Most of the research on solar energy currently being
done is paid for by grants from those producers of this
earth's major source of energy, the oil companies. Solar
energy installations could presently be designed based on
knowledge already gained, but they won't be because the
patents are held by those whose best interests are not
represented by solar energy.
On the bright side, arts and humanities received an
additional $51 million, much of which will filter down to
the university level. At least Carter likes a good show.

�FEEDBACK

Remember the future
To the Editor.

President

In a receftt letter to the Editor someone wrote
of “the way The Spectrum has been harping on

'University

deterioration’.”

She continues, saying

that “reading about deterioration” is not helping her
“enthusiasm toward my school any ,..” She finds,
“UB is great! So is Buffalo. Let’s hear about the
good side of life here.”
Well, to be enthusiastic about something, it

might be better to know about that something, and
we are learning in the recent evaluation reports
(which show the tip of an iceberg), the critique of
the “shallow seventies” and disco music by Tom
Dooney, the articles on Senate Bill SI437 (like the
old SI), what’s going on in city politics, and the

and forth on the article in The
Delia’s adjustment politics and the
quality of journalism exhibited there.
With these, 1 find at liast an attempt to first of
all get clear on what is, and that is more important
now than ever since the jhist (the late 60’s among
other things) is being increasingly forgotten. The
present situation of educational, economic and social
restriction and cultural affirmation and obfuscation
for which the Ketter administration here is greatly
responsible, has its roots in the past. At least we are
trying to leam our history. What’s happened since
1970 is not unique to our campus. But the facts
should be known.

merely democratize the University, have been for the

in an issue in 1969, or The Spectrum EXTRA of

Free games
To the Editor
On Saturday, January 28, a few of us students
tried to go to the Wilkeson game room to play table
tennis but found we could not get into the game
room unless we went through the Pub and paid the
$1 admission charge The game room up until now
ha* always been free and now we are told that this
new policy will be effective for the rest of the
semester We don’t feel we should be charged
admission simply to play table tennis on the only
decent tables in the Ellicott Complex, or to play
foosball which we already have to pay for. This also
makes it impossible for the students here who are
not eighteen to get in. We think that this unfair
policy should be changed immediately and the back
door to the game room should be reopened for
people who just want to have some fun and not pay
for a band we are not particularly interested in
hearing. People should not have to pay twice for
their entertainment.

owner

We’ve all heard about the sexual revolution, but
has there really been one? Have we, especially the
younger
members
a
undergone
of society,
transformation of attitudes and behavior regarding love

and sex? I’ve come to doubt it.

Recently, I asked students in a class of mine
whether they thought it was possible or desirable to
love, in an intimate, erotic sense, more than One person
at a time. To my surprise, without exception the class
members indicated that they were not sure that it was
possible. I was even more surprised when I realized that
no one in the class (except myself) thought it would be
desirable.
Sexual revolution?! Everyone’s beliefs seemed to
agree with long' established convention. In particular,
they were committed to monogamy.
Much has been said about the virtues of
monogamyi We hear that monogamous relationships
are not only the most satisfying, but that they are also
the only form relationships of love and sex can take if
they are to be moral. People who are not monogamous
are usually looked down upon. Their activities are
categorized as bad; even when they are not charged
with outright sinfulness, it is assumed that they are
“promiscuous” or “playing around” or somehow

“cheating.”
1 would like to present another view, namely, the
view that monogamy is bad. In taking this position, 1
would like the reader to know that 1 am not

monogamy.

Exclusive ownership
By definitipn, a monogamous relationship is an
exclusive one. Two people promise to love and share
sexual and other intimacies only with each other.
Through monogamy, the lovers come to exist only for
each other; that is, they form a bond of mutual
ownership. They say* to each other, “I am yours” and
“You are mine.” Each becomes the other’s possession.
Thus, monogamous lovers tend to be possessive
and shelter each other's lives. This may feel good,
especially when lovers protect and look after each
other; but it can also be stifling. Love should enhance
the humanity of lovers, but here we can see how
monogamy can be dehumanizing.
One of the most dehumanizing things that can
happen in a marriage, for instance, is wife-beating.
Would this kind of physical violence be as likely to
occur if the husband did not regard his wife as his, that
is, as his property to use and abuse as he sees fit?
Actual physical violence is, of course, an extreme
form of dehumanization; but other, lesser forms are
pervasive
relationships.
monogamous
in
Psychologically, being regarded as and coming to
regard oneself as another's property is dehumanizing in
itself. The slave may come to accept and even enjoy
being possessed, but that does not mitigate the violence

Dependency and unreasonable expectations
As expressed in popular songs, lovers often want
to be everything for each other. Each wants to be the
other’s world. This, I think, is a reflection of our
monogamous bias.
In an exclusive relationship, lovers depend entirely
on each other for the satisfaction of certain basic
human needs. These include their needs for intimacy,
love, and sex. They may also include their needs for
respect, appreciation, and companionship. But it is
unreasonable and unfair to expect one other person to
do and to be so much for us. Yes, lovers want and
should be able to satisfy each other, but they should
not compromise themselves in doing so.
The choice for lovers is clear: they can collapse
into one another of they can stand independently.

They can acquiesce to a state of perpetual childhood,
each acting parentally toward the other, or they can
grow up. They can become “a couple” or they can
allow and help each other to become fully functioning
individuals. My own preference is that lovers live their
own lives, maintaining their integrity as individuals by
being more independent, self-directing, and self-reliant
than is traditional.

Excessive
and
dependency
unreasonable
are destructive because they lead to
mutual frustrations, resentments, and feelings of
inadequacy. Even if it were desirable, it probably
would be nearly impossible for one person to be
everything for another. And if we expect the
impossible, we will be disappointed and frustrated.
Eventually, we will come to resent the beloved for
failing to satisfy us.
However, the victimization of the beloved goes
beyond the pain inflicted by our resentment. The
beloved may internalize our unreasonable expectations
and
not being able to completely satisfy our needs
for intimacy, love, and sex
feel like a failure. Guilt
and self-hatred naturally accompany these feelings of
inadequacy. The resentment then becomes mutual; a
vicious circle of bad feeling poisons the relationship
and generates unhappiness for the lovers.
How much more rational it would be to reach out
to a number of different people for the satisfaction of
basic social needs. We might still have a central,
primary relationship; however, this relationship would
be open. We would not be monogamous.
expectations

-

Deception and rejection
Let’s now consider the dilemma we face when we
are involved in a monogamous relationship and at the
same time become attracted to someone else. Suppose
we want to pursue a new relationship. What are our
options?

One option is to enter into the new relationship
under false pretenses, hiding it from our first love and

perhaps hiding our first love from our new love. If
deceit comes hard to us, a second option presents
itself; we can “break up” with one lover so that we can
build a relationship with the new lover. However, there
issomething wrong with the second option too.

In rejecting a loved one because a new person has
attracted our attention, we may be betraying whatever
love and feeling we had for our first love; surely, this is
the impression given to the person who is rejected. If
we love a person only when we don’t have anyone else,
what kind of love is that?
There are good reasons for breaking up. Love
relationships can get stale and tired, if not actively
destructive. But we need not treat our lovers like old
cars that must be traded in to make room for new
ones. Why can’t we love someone while being open to
exploring new love relationships with others? Love or
the desire to love should not cause us to reject and hurt
those we have been loving.

Destruction of human potential
1 am convinced that for every person in the world
there are many, many potential lovers. For each
woman, there is not just one knight On horseback For
each man, there is not just one beautiful princess. The
trouble with monogamy is that H limits our experience
with others; it doesn’t permit us to discover the many
potential lovers that exist for us.
Consider the students in my class: young people,
perhaps only twenty years old, at best newcomers to
love t' i sex. With most of their lives yet to be lived,
each still has the opportunity to meet and relate to
many interesting and attractive people. But instead of
cherishing and welcoming the opportunities for
intimacy, love and sex that lie ahead, what do they
want? Each of them wants to run and hide! Faced with
awesome possibilities, they want to play it safe. They
want to settle down in the near future to a permanent,
monogamous relationship. In saying “hello” to love,
they intend to say “goodbye” to the rest of the world
Monogamy unduly limits human experience and
the realization of human potential. It structures our
lives so that
outside a primary relationship
human
relations are trivialized: intimacy with others is
outlawed. This is the most tragic consequence of
monogamy. If it were not for our monogamous bias,
our relationships with other people could be more
free form, experimental, and, I think, ultimately more
satisfying and profound.
Monogamy sentences us to superficial relations. It
robs life of its excitement and possibilities. Many joys
as well as sorrows are placed beyond the pale of human

experience.

Not easy, but worth it
Perhaps I have overstated the case against
monogamy. For certain periods of time, it may be the
right thing. It may offer a familiar context, a safe,
secure environment, for establishing a primary
relationship that is strong and trustful enough to
encourage openness toward other people.
From my own experience, I am inclined to
conclude that open relationships are not easy. It is not
easy to overcome guilt feelings, jealousy, and the
insecurity that comes from the fear of being rejected if
your lover is attracted to someone else. Converting an
intellectual commitment to openness into an emotional
one takes a lot of work, especially for people raised to
be monogamous.
But try we must! What’s at stake is the promise of
vastly enriched life where we can naturally extend
ourselves both in love and in friendship to others
Moreover, we can care about our lovers while allowing
them to live and enrich their own lives. This, i think, is
loving in the best sense of the word.

Telephone costs have recently
soared for dorm students, who
have discovered that it is cheaper
to leave phones on over the winter
recess rather than temporarily
disconnect them as had been the
practice of many students in the
past. The cost of having a phone
turned off for vacation and then
having operation resumed upon
return has jumped over 600 per
cent for
Main Street dorm
students, from $2.33 to $14.00,
and slightly less for the Amherst
Campus service, from $3.50 to
$14.00.

The
fee
for
temporary
termination rose to $10.00 in
October, and rose again to $14.00
as of January 6. A spokesman for
the New York Telephone Co.,
Ethel Gramm, defended the rise
saying, “We found that the charge
for restoring service was closer to
$14.00. The old $2.33 charge for
Main St. and $3.50 charge for
Amherst were figures that were
set ten years ago. Since then costs
have increased and the Phone

money.”

Gramm explained that for each
phone that is turned off, “our
representative has to write an
order for it to be disconnected, it

must be physically disconnected,
and the billing has to be stopped.
Upon resumption of phone
service, the representative issues
orders to reconnect the wires,
they are physically connected, the
billing is resumed, and we must
figure out how much less to
charge the consumer.”

Preposterous
Director of Housing Custodial
Services Richard Cudeck, thought
that the jump was “preposterous
and should be challenged.” “I
have filed a protest with the
Public Service Commission in
Albany and am waiting for them
to send me the proper forms,” he
said. Cudeck also stated that in a
meeting a few months ago with
the
Inter-Residence
Council
(IRC), the Krone Company, and
his office, he had proposed getting
a reduction in rates by giving New
York Telephone a blanket order
to turn off all the phones in the
dorms, should students agree to it.
The Phone Company refused,
explaining that they had nothing
that would apply as such on an
individual basis.
Treasurer of IRC Steve Peck
was also against the rise and felt
that some action should be taken.
“We’re going to submit a proposal
to legislators in Albany to get cuts
for students,” he said. “We also

approached the phone company
with the proposal to reduce rates
by limiting the free calling arcr
from all of Buffalo to just our
immediate surroundings, but we
still haven’t heard from them,” he
added.
Lost in N.Y
Gramm explained that IRC’s
proposal had gone to their main
office in New York, but that it
would take some time before they
received an answer, although it
would certainly be in before the
end of the semester. “It takes an
revenues,
of
the
approval
consideration of how to get the
equipment, and the approval to
put it in,” said Gramm. She added
that she didn’t know what the
charge would be if it were
instituted.
Whether a student should turn
off his phone is a matter of
arithmetic. If a student plans to
have it disconnected for a month
($12.09 monthly), it will end up
costing more to have it reinstalled
than if it had simply been left on
for that period of time. After five
weeks, the student will break
even, but winter recess isn’t more
than four
weeks. ‘They’re
bleeding us to death no matter
what we do,” exclaimed one
perturbed student. “You just
can’t fight the Phone Company.”

semester, the consumer group urged IRCB to
adopt a returnable-only policy in its student-run
stores on campus: the Ellicottessen, the Grub, and
the Underground. NYPIRG students gathered over
1500 petition signatures from dormitory residents
supporting the change to non-returnables. In
addition, the Student Association (SA) Senate
voted unanimously to support the effort.
NYPIRG plans to continue its on-campus
efforts this semester, in addition to building
community coalitions behind statewide bottle bill

legislation.
Other projects that students will be working
on through NYPIRG this semester include: a
continuation of last semester’s utility reform and
building energy conservation efforts, a survey of
the compliance of the university buildings with
handicapped access regulations, a survey of area
gynecologists, and patients’ rights outreach. In
addition, efforts will continue to gather student
support for legislation to reform the Educational
Testing Services to permit students to register to
vote where they attend school.
Any student wishing more information

Porter quad: more

garbage than usual
Several residents of Porter Quad have begun a fight to reopen
recently closed storage rooms where trash was disposed laSt semester.
Ths storage rooms were locked by the Custodial Services Department
shortly before the Christmas holiday break and instead trash cans were
placed in the hallways.
Irate residents of the Porter Quad have circulated a petition to
have the storage rooms reopened. In addition, they have sought media
coverage and threatened to call the Board of Health. One student
stated, “We were told that the rooms were closed because they were a
health and safety hazard, but I hardly consider it healthier to have a
can of garbage sitting near my door.”
According to Director of Custodial Services Dewey Bush, the
rooms were locked upon his orders because “They were designed for
dry storage, not for garbage and they arc not equipped with smoke
detectors.” Bush further stated that “a fire in a closed area of this type
could cause serious damage before being detected.” He indicated that
the rooms will probably remain closed.
Some trash cans have been removed from halls and placed in
stairwells by students who complain of the smell of the garbage.
According to Bush, the trash is removed each day at 9;45 a.m. which
should eliminate this difficulty. Bush felt that the students involved in
the protest were “selfish in their views since only a few buildings in
Porter contain these storage rooms.”
N
Bush said that the precedent of using these rooms for trash was set
years ago, and has continued since up until this semester. As far as can
be determined, there is no Board of Health restriction or building code
statute which limits the location of trash cans.

�INTRAMU
The battle continued in the basketball
intramurals last week as some of the league leaders
were upset at the buzzer.
On Wednesday, the previously undefeated Boss
Players, succumbed for the first time 60-59, in the
final moments of the game to their rivals, the
Independence dc Puerto Rico. The Independence
thus revenged their earlier loss to the Players. Both
teams now stand even at S-l in the Wednesday (A)
league and will continue to battle as the playoffs
draw nearer.
Another surprising upset occurred Sunday, a
week ago, when Club 21 was handed their first
defeat by upcoming Dynasty in overtime. As the
buzzer sounded, Dave Sand’s 20-foot jumper from
the top of the key won it. The crucial victory put
Dynasty in good shape for a playoff spot. Both Qub
21 and Dynasty won again this week, thus improving
their standings in the 2 pm. Sunday (B) league.
Elsewhere in the Sunday B leagues, a battle for
first place continued between N.O.Y.F.B., now 7-0,
and The Sunset Chateau, 6-1. That fight will

probably go down to the wire, as these teams are
scheduled to play each other in the last game of the

season.
Other promising B league teams are: the 76’s
(4:00) and the Phenol-Barbs (5:00). Both of those
squads still remain undefeated at 7-0.
In the Monday leagues, a three-way tie between
Who’s Next, the K9’s, and the YO’s has yet to be
resolved. The K9’s jumped ahead of the pack by
edging the YO’s. Competition for first place here is
tight, and each game will be crucial in the overall

standings.
Some other good teams in the Monday leagues
are AWB 5-0 in the 8:00 B league and Trigger Happy
50 in the 9:00 A league. Both teams looked
impressive last semester, but were unable to play so
far this semester, due to last Thursday’s storm. The
Bugouts, a Wednesday entry (9:30) benefitted from
a forfeit by the UB coaches and improved their
record to 6-0. For complete intramural results, check
the bulletin board posted in the lobby of Clark Hall.

The bowling Royals captured first place at the UB Invitational
Bowling Tournament at Squire Lanes Saturday. Both the UB “A” and
“B” squads wound up victors in their respective divisions, with the “B”
team (2404 pins) surprisingly finishing with more total pins than the
“A” team (2400 pins).
Rounding out the A tournament, Fredonia finished in second
place with 2323 pins. Ithaca had 2190 and Cornell finished last with
2133. Junior Cindy Coburn led the UB scorers with a 558 series; Sue
Fulton (526) was second.
After the first game the Royals found themselves in second place
with 810 pins, 1) pins behind Fredonia. Ithaca finished the game in
thira place (802), and Cornell brought up the rear (745). Coburn’s 213
helped UB’s cause greatly as some Royals had trouble in the early
rounds. .

Royals pull ahead
After the next ten frames, Buffalo was ahead of the pack with
1639 pins. Fredonia fell to second place with 1598, Ithaca remained in
third with 1483 and Cornell again was last with 1430. Overall the
Royals looked much better as a team, with Fulton leading the game
with a 198.
The Royals pin total fell drastically in their third game (761), yet
c
they still pulled out the match.
The “B” team’s victory wasn’t-unexpected but their pin total
certainly was. The “B’s” had no trouble winning their division of the
tournament, as they led from the beginning and never once trailed.
Final totals showed UB first, Cornell second (2050), Ithaca third
(1959) and Fredonia last (1953).
‘B.’ team leaden

Freshman Terry Strassel threw a powerful first game (217). Her
totals dropped, however, to" 145 and 139 for a 501 but she did end
with the second highest series; UB senior Carolyn Karanas, throwing a
pretty consistent ball, had the highest series with 191-186-154 for a
531.
The fine “performance of the “B” team coupled with the “A”
team’s steady bowlers showed the depth of the Royal squad. With that
combination, Buffalo coach Jane Poland could well find herself
coaching a powerhouse on the bowling alley.
The Royals’ next competition will be February 4 at the Ithaca
Invitational.
-Pauline habedz

final buzzer had sounded. Buffalo had battled back
from a 3-0 deficit against one of the top Division II
hockey teams in the East to tie the score midway
through the third period on a shorthanded goal by
MacLean.
In the end, it was one of the Bulls’ few defensive
mistakes of the evening that led to the defeat. “I saw
two Plattsburgh guys hanging on the blue line,” said
Buffalo goalie Bill Kaminska. “I tried calling for help
by banging my stick on the ice, but they couldn’t
hear me.” Plattsburgh wound up with a two-on-one
break, and Cardinal freshman Teddy Dash beat
Kaminska cleanly for the winning goal with just 24
seconds left.
Caniana helps
Despite the loss, it was an encouraging game for
the Bulls. “It was a tough game to lose,” said Bulls
coach Ed Wright, now in his eighth season at
Buffalo, “but we haven’t played that well in our last
seven games.”
One of the keys to Buffalo’s improved
performance was a sharp defense, bolstered by the
return of senior Mike Caruana, who had been out
with a bad knee. “We were getting tired playing with
only three defensemen,” MacLean said about
previous games. “Mike came back ahd helped.”
“The defense played really well,” Kaminska
added. “Danny Gemmer and Rich MacLean blocked
a lot of shots and Mike Caruana provided the muscle.
They cleared away all the rebounds.”
Plattsburgh opened the scoring at 2:16 of the
first period. Junior Matt Wescott planted himself at
Kaminska’s left, unhindered by the UB defense, and
took a pass from Danny Brown, Kaminska wasn’t

minute

Bulls come back
The second Cardinal goal came on a mistake by
Kaminska, who apparently felt he could retrieve a
loose puck before Brown. Brown beat him to it and
scored into an open net. “We made two mistakes in
the first period, and we got burned twice,” Wright
said. “We also hit the post twice. That’s the kind of
luck we’ve been battling.”
Marc Ouellet’s power play goal early in the
second period made the score 3-0, but the remainder
of the period belonged to the Bulls. Ed Patterson,
who passed, shot and forechecked beautifully
throughout the game, was in the right spot at the
right time when he picked up a rebound and scored
Buffalo’s first goal on a power play.
Later in the second period, Bull Brien Grow
worked the puck free from a Plattsburgh player.
Linemate Frank Anzalone picked up the puck,
passed to Chris Bonn on the left, who tallied, mHiring
the score 3-2. Buffalo had numerous other
opportunities during that period, as they fired 20
shots at Cardinal goalie Rick Strack. Several times,
the rebound trickled loose in the crease, but the
Bulls could not capitalize.
The tying goal was set up when Anzalone
worked the puck loose along the boards, fed Bonn,
who shot. The rebound came out to MacLean, who
poked it over the fallen Strack.

Saturday, Buffalo beat Cortland 6-4, in another
NYCHA game. Tom Wilde and MacLean each had
two goals while Tim Igo and Don Osborn added
single tallies.
The win raised Buffalo’s overall record to 7-9,
but more importantly, it raised their NYCHA record
to 3-2. Plattsburgh remains on top of the league at
7-1 (losing only to Elmira Saturday). Buffalo will be
idle most of the week, but they will lace up their

A fatal final 18 seconds ruined a comeback by
ITHACA, N.Y.
the basketball Royals Saturday as they were defeated by Ithaca College
64-59. The loss dropped Buffalo’s record to 5-3.
Prior to the game, Buffalo coach Liz Cousins said that Ithaca
would be a real test, as UB’s earlier opponents were much smaller. “We

play a running offense with a conservative
order to run, we’ll need the quick outlet pass to start the break.”

At the outset, Ithaca controlled the pace. Led by the rebounding
of Judy Watkins and the quarterbacking of Dee Dee Mayes, the
Bombers opened up an early lead in the first half. The hot shooting of
Regina Frailer (12 points) and Pam Lerrainiaux (17 points) for UB
kept the game within reach at halftime.'

Save

Early in the second half, play became sloppy as both teams traded
numerous turnovers. Royals’ center and leading rebounder Janet Lilley
was in early foul trouble, contending with the inside strength of
Watkins. The Royals blew a couple of breakaway layups and threw
away several opportunities to score.

Sabs give lift

Lilley fouled out at the twelve minute mark so Cousins sent in a
smaller, quicker liiieup which slowly cut the lead to thirteen, 57-44
with less than eight minutes left in the game. Scrappy play underneath
by Paula Hills and consistent shooting by Frazier and Lempniaux
brought the Royals back to within seven points, 61-54, with three
minutes remaining. UB forced Ithaca to turn the ball over with

Repeatedly in the final minute, the Royals had the chance to win the
game or send it into overtime, but Ithaca forced Buffalo to take three
bad shots in the last 18 seconds. Lisa Boyer put the Ithaca squad up by
three, 62-59 with the first of two foul shots. She missed the second
shot but Ithaca controlled the rebound and scored at the buzzer,
making the final score 64-59.
Comeback effort
“When we were down by two with fifteen seconds left, we wanted

a three outside shots. Being inexperienced hurt. We were down by

Jimmy Griffin: a
mayor on the move
by Bradshaw Hovey
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Mayor Jimmy Griffin’s vision
for Buffalo is an uncomplicated
one. On the fingers of his meaty,
workingman’s hand he ticks off
four things he says he’ll have to
do to consider his four years in
the office a success: “a safer,
cleaner city;, downtown;
neighborhoods; and an efficient
administration. Those four
things.”
And Griffin insists that he’s
already succeeding in providing
safety for Buffalonians. He cites
“compliments” he’s received from

administration. “They’re (the
citizens are) gonna help make the
decisions.” But the Mayor also
says that he’s “not gonna have
three or four layers of
bureaucrats,” to do it. He says
that “the Councilmen are going to
have to shoulder their
responsibility whether they like it
or not.”

Working together
This is likely to be a bone of
contention with many members
of the Council, who feel strongly
that the Block Grant Community
coordinators, the “bureaucrats”
which Griffin refers to, are
essential to the successful
administration of a plethora of
federal and state grants and
help

the

Inter-Residence Council Business,
Inc. (IRCB) from its parent
organization, the Inter-Residence
Council (IRC).
The
effectiveness of the
student-run service organizations
appears hampered, with both sides
citing control of IRCB and its
policy as the aPfOL qf the
disagreement.

IRCB officials maintained that
the representatives that constitute
the business’ Board of Directors,
are unqualified to make rational
business decisions, pertinent to
the corporation. In turn, the
Board charged IRCB officials with
losing sight of student needs,
claiming that the corporation’s
existence has become
more
important to IRCB management
than has fulfilling its goal as a
student service organization.
Since its inception, IRCB

The conflict between the
student organizations began two
years ago, when IRC moved its
offices to the Amherst Campus.

Prior to that, both organizations
were centered in Goodyear Hall
on the Main Street Campus.

Brownstein suggested that the
move to Amherst created a

strains within the organization.

State s top team downs Bulls
by Suzan Rury
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Defending their number one position in the
State, the Syracuse Orangemen squeezed a 24—12
victory out of the wrestling Bulls Saturday before an
enthusiastic crowd at Clark Hall. Nearly 1000 people
saw a Buffalo comeback bid fail at 190 pound Jeff
Wheeler lost a 5—4 decision to Syracuse’s Michael
Ponzo.
With the team score 18-12 in favor of the
Orangemen, Wheeler had to at least draw to prevent
Syracuse from taking the match. A draw would have
demanded a pin from UB’s injured heavyweight, Paul
Curka, to accomplish a tie. With the score tied at
four all and seconds left in the bout, Wheeler
followed Michael’s plan to release his opponent, thus

sacrificing one point to try for the two.

Unsurprising strategy
The buzzer ended the match with both wrestlers
down on the mat, but referee Gerald Wright saw no
need to award points. “It was a Judgement call,”
said
Michael. "The referee could have awarded points,
either way would have been a good call.” Wheeler’s
strategy did not surprise Syracuse coach Ed
Carlin,
“It was a good gamble, why not go for broke?” he
said.

Buffalo’s light weights started out weakly with
sophomore Tom Jacoutot (118) being pinned
by
Orangeman Gene Mills, last year’s NCAA third place
winner. But younger brother Mike Jacoutot (126)

Governor’ Carey’s budget will look like after the
Legislature is done with it.”
The Governor’s proposed budget does not repeal
the fee like many of the schools had requested in
their lobbying and letter-writing efforts. Camerda
said students at Stonybrook had been involved in
lobbying and “received some tentative commitments
in Albany and from some Long Island legislators.”
Mike Mermelstein, member of the Advisory Board of
SASU at SUNY at Oneonta, suggested that “students
may be doing some lobbying in February.” SUNY at
New Paltz Student Task Force member Martha Jones
said representatives from New Paltz have directed
their lobbying efforts to the New York State Bpard

Departmental reviews evaluating the four credit policy must be
completed by the end of the Fall semester of the 1978-79 academic
year for final approval by the Division of Undergraduate Education
(DUE), according to a report by the Committee on Curricular
Structure of the Faculty Senate. None of the departments have
announced formal decisions, as reviews are still in progress.
Acting Dean of Undergraduate Education, Walter Kunz, said, “The
curricular committee must develop criteria to evaluate the decisions of
the various departments. Right now the Committee faces a logistics
problem because it is very busy dealing with new courses and doesn’t
have the time to conduct a review.” Kunz predicted that a
sub committee would be formed within DUE to deal with the issue.
Wide variance of departmental reaction was expected, according to
Kunz. “There are advantages to both policies,” he commented. “The
problem is that neither system has ever been tested.” Kunz said that
the three credit system could theoretically allow a broad education by
forcing students to take more courses to meet departmental
requirements. “The three credit system (five course load) is used at
many universities throughout the country,” he said.
Although It is difficult to determine at this point, Kunz predicted
that there would be some scheduling problems resulting from a policy
change. “We will probably wind up with a complex system of credit if

follow the Senate recommendations,” he said.
Acting Dean of Graduate Education, Charles Fogel, said that be
unfortunate if departments had to fit within a rigid be unfortunate if
departments had to fit within a reigid procedure. In this case, we
wanted each department to examine itself to determine itw own
policy,” he stressed. Fogel added, “There may be scheduling problems,
but in the end, the University will be better off.”
Chairman of Rachel Carson College, Peter Gold felt that
scheduling difficulties were accounted for by the Curriculum
Committee’s report. “There may be minor scheduling difficulties but
they will be resolved. The three credit system may actually allow for
more careful scheduling procedures,” he said.
The Geology Department, presently in the process of review, will
probably arrive at a decision by next week, according to Chairman
Chester Langway. “1 have no preference for either system,” he
commented. “A broad education is desirable but a three credit system
won’t necessarily guarantee a broader education than a four credit
we

system.”

The Art Department will experience minimal effects from the
Committee report, according to Assistant to the Chairman Theodore
Fitzwater. “We switched most of our courses to three credits last fall.
Credit policy has never been an important factor in our studio
program;” Fitzwater said.
He felt that there is some justification for the four credit system
and in depth study, altfaoug he favors the three credit policy. “It is
terribly important at the Undergraduate level to have a broad
education," Fitzwater stressed.

A boycott of the mandatory student health fee
is proceeding differently at various SUNY schools
throughout the state. The health fee, which amounts
to $8.50 per semester for students at this University,
has been the target of a Student Association of the
State University (SASU) statewide boycott because
its revenue is being used to offset a $2.3 million
budget cut, and not for health related purposes.
Legislative Director of SASU David Coyne has
labeled the fee “a tremendous consumer fraud on
the part of the state.”
Currently, the SASU organization at this
University is sponsoring a pledge card boycott of the
fee which has been dubbed as “not being used for
health services. Buffalo representatives are asking
students who pass through Squire Hall to sign a
pledge card which stipulates that when they pay
their tuition bills, they will withhold payment of the
health fee.
Last semester, SUNY at Stoneybrook attempted
to organize a boycott and collected over 1000 pledge
cards. The Stoneybrook administration refused to
accept partial payment of students’ tuition and “in
essence threatened de-registration of students,”
according to Executive Director of the Student
Polity Bill Camerda. He added, “Since it was
vacation time, most students ended up paying it, but
we are getting involved in lobbying.”-

‘Makes me sick’
Students at SUNY at Cortland have written over
250 letters urging repeal of the health fee, (according
to Student Association Treasurer Ralph Pollock.
Co-coordinator of the Free Student Union at
Geneseo Pat Deluca said, “We called off our boycott
because we didn’t have many people. Instead we are
organizing a letter-writing campaign.” Chason from
Binghamton added, “We weren’t prepared to
boycott the fee, but we have been writing support
letters to other schools.”
It is hard to evaluate the effect of the various
efforts by the different schools, but Camerda
stressed that students are becoming more aware of
the fee. Mermelstein said, “It’s a rip-off, and should
be repealed. Hopefully, the Legislature will put it
back in.” Jones from New Paltz exclaimed, “The
health fee makes me sick.” Camerda added, “The
Legislature should be making a decision on the damn
thing very soon.”

Lobbying efforts
The major effort by many of the SUNY schools
is taking the form of lobbying. SUNY at Oneonta,
Stonybrook, New Paltz, and Binghamton are all
planning lobbying efforts. SASU delegate from
Binghamton Lisa Chason said, “Hopefully appeals to

preceeded his administration, for

those who don’t share his views,
for many others. Griffin betrays
this scorn with a liberal use of
what one might call an all-purpose
derogative. He found himself
using this term and states firmly
“don’t print that like Mike Healy
did,” referring to an article
printed in the Courier Express
immediately after the November
election. Startled, I promised the
Mayor I would not.
A promise is a promise. If you
want to read the actual words you

can look up Mike Hcaly’s story
for yourself. The words
themselves are not important. It is
the sentiments the words convey
that are troubling. And the word
itself is so ubiquitous in his speech
that it is hard to get around it.
For expedience’s sake, let us
substitute the words “mike healy”
for that term of derision so at
home on Jimmy Griffin’s tongue.

Tots-lots
Griffin dismisses with a wave
of his hand the idea that any
tensions exist between the City
and the University even in light of
the disturbances which occurred
here in 1970. “That was ten years
ago,” he says. Besides, he
continues, “Dr. Ketter is doing a
fine job.” The Mayor expects to

work with the University on
numerous projects but frankly
doesn’t expect to get much help
from “those mike healies from
New York City who hang around
Norton Hall 24 hours a day.”
“I care about the kids who are
working after school to put a
buck in their pocket,” he
comments, feeling they are the
people who will help, the City.
Although he doesn’t refer to
them as mike healies, he does have
sharp criticism for “so-called
neighborhood groups” which have
been active in the block grant
program. “They’ve got all these
tot-lots,” he comments. “Who the
hell needs them?” The Mayor
thinks it would be more
productive to use the money to
establish all purpose community
centers for everything from youth
recreation to activities for the
elderly.

�EDITORIAL
Understanding IRC and IRCB
The effectiveness of two dormitory service organizations, the
Inter Residence Council (IRC) and its corporate anr, IRCB, is baing
impaired by internal squabbling and petty politicking over whatremain
very viable financial and structural issues, pertinent to the continued
success of student activities at this University.
Rarsona) disputes between the management of IRCB and the Board
of its parent organization, an alleged promise of funds totalling
$15,000 to the parent organization, which IRC promptly allocated but
never received, and Very importantly, the move to the Amherst Campus
effecting a physical split between the two have blown the cover
off the unity that might ever have existed to provide students with
maximum service.
So now the entire student body knows that, despite the continued
existence of The Grub, The Ellicottessen, and The Underground (in
Governors, Ellicott and in the basement of Goodyear and Clement
respectively), and the continual showings of excellent movies in Farber
ISO and Fillmore 170. ell is not well behind the scenes. In fact, nothing
h wall, and students are probably missing something they shouldn'tbe.
The last editorial written about IRC in this column, although
entertaining and welt-written in some parts, was misinformed and
insulting to the point of comparing one IRC Board member to a public
official whose namesake made cart. It was based on a story in the same
issue alleging corruption in IRC elections.
In that case, it seemed that no one could get hit or her story
straight as to what happened and what was, in fact, allowed to happen.
Welt, the story hasn't changed. Although the crux of the matter
this time is the control of I RGB, The Spectrum reporter was fed
contradictions, nrtisunderstandings, quarter-lies, half-lies and probably a
few full-fledged grown-up lies; and the questions raised and
unanswered, the facts stated and disputed, and the discussion of
business vs. politics generated by both sides confirm that a crisis is
impending, no doubt to come to a head at budget time.
Are IRCB's books open to IRC officials? Do the books make any
sense? Was the alleged promise of $15,000 ewer made or was the money
allocated on the basis of guesswork about expected revenues? Are the
officials in charge of dispensing funds totally ignorant of business
procerhires, and vice versa (although in most interactions of this nature,
the best businesspeople are very good politicians), or are they merely
interested in keeping the business afloat and forgetting about the
student service?
With a budget of over $500,000, I RGB is the largest student
corporation at this University. Its potential is fantastic and in many
respects has been fulfilled; the cash flow at the-three stores is constant
and could be expanded as an increasing number of students utilize
them and as the prices remain as low as possible, contrary to the
proposals of one former IRC Board member. It could continue to
supply funds to IRC, which could in turn increase the number of
movies shown, have more beer blasts, sponsor more trips to Toronto
and better organize vacation transport to New York City and, with new
personnel, plan innovative means of keeping dormitory students
entertained and even educated. ;
But first, the internal accounting systems of both IRC and IRCB
must be made more managable and comprehensible to students whose
tenure as officials never exceeds the duration of their undergraduate

years.

If the three stores did have the floor space, IRCB could’ become
the largest distributor of returnaWes-only In Western New York, and
could increase its inventory to the point of giving the local
supermarkets a real run for their money.
But people with vision are needed: people who can look beyond
the trials of the present and plan the future, people with a sense of
committment that would be passed on from year to year, people who
squabble for the good of all and not for themselves.

Curka would have wrestled regardless of injury, “I
would have done by job,” Curka confidently said.
“I am not disappointed,” said Michael. “Over all
the team wrestled well.” Carlin said that although he
didn’t consider this match to be one of Syracuse’s
important matches, because Buffalo is not in its
conference, it was definitely one of its most
difficult. “UB has a tough club,” he commented.

Aggressive feet
Janiak was the third place winner in the NCAA
championships of his sophomore year. He redshirted
last year and is now making a comeback in his senior
year. Anderson hopes to wrestle Janiak again in
tournament competition later this season. “I need to
be more aggressive against Janiak on his feet,”
claimed Anderson. "‘1 was too cautious, 1 should
have gone for more takedowns.”
The only Bull pin was captured by co-captain
Bruce Hadsell (167), who pinned senior Peter
Englehardt in a time of 3:28. Hadsell was pleased

Colgate cagers top Buffalo
kids over 6’5”, while we have only
Pellom,” he said.
The Red Raiders jumped out
to an 8—0 lead, and only
relinquished
that top position
once in the first half. Colgate was
aided by the sluggish play of
Buffalo, as the Bulls committed
four turnovers in the first three
minutes. Combined with stupid
passes and paper hands, UB had
no offensive organization.

JUDAI M TODAY

As sure as the snow fell in
Buffalo, the basketball Bulls lost
again. The latest defeat came at
the hands of Colgate University,
92 79, Saturday at the Memorial
Auditorium. Buffalo is now 2-13.
Bulls coach Leo Richardson
commented that UB has only
three consistent players on the
team. “Without Ed Johnson, Sam
Pellom and Larry Jones we have
no
depth
with little
along
experience,” noted Richardson.
The Bull mentor also felt his team

19-17.
With 5;47 remaining in the
half, Buffalo’s Bruce Bonaparte
was ejected from the game for
throwing
punches.
“It
was
definitely the critical point in the
game,’’ stated Richardson. “With
Brace out pf rise game, it took
away much needed height from
our team.”
Halftime statistics showed that
the Bulls shot a miserable 28
percent from the free throw line,
and out fouled the Red Raiders;
center Pellom was in foul trouble
with three, ‘‘The rtfs weren’t
giving me any leeway, as they
practically called a fpul evcrytime
1 touched the ball,” said Pellom.
“The way the officials treated me
tonight, you’d figure we would be
playing on the road rather than at
home.” Pellom felt he was too
cautious during the second half
because of tfie three fouls, and
thus couldn’t play his normal
game.

Storming Raiders

The Red Raiders stormed out
of the locker room for the second
half,
connecting
on
five
consecutive buckets to open an 11
point bulge, their largest, 44-33.
Colgate was led by the sharp
shooting of Dave Hargett, Doug
Hatley and Rob Hamilton, who
scdrtd 19, 15 and IS points
respectively. Hargett and Harley
had -been extrememly hot in the
first half, as they shot 4-6 and
respectively.

UB cut the lead twice to six, as
Ed Johnson caught fire and led all
scorers with 31 points. Larry
Jones, who shot better than 50
percent from the field, was second
highest with 19.

A historical perspective
r

&gt;

Proof that emancipation from nature is still a dream
Why was the Blizzard of ’77 a disaster rather than a
nuisance? Because we do not modify our way of life
according to the seasons, as animals do and as our
ancestors did. In previous centuries, when most people
lived on farms, families expected to be isolated by winter
storms. They did not try to fight the weather. By stocking
up on food, firewood and other essentials, they could be
self-sufficient for months. But the modern urban
household depends for its survival on a constant stream of
supplies and services from outside. Few families stock
more than a week’s supply of food; nor do we have
domestic animals to slaughter. Since most city homes do
not have fireplaces, a house becomes uninhabitable if gas,
oil or electricity is unavailable. Those with CB radios may
do without a telephone
until the batteries are gone.
When public water supplies fail, we are warned not to
drink melted snow without disinfecting it and even then,
it contains traces of industrial pollutants from the air.

Our Achilles heel
The interdependence of city dwellers is made possible
by our transportation system, which proved our Achilles
heel. Automobiles and trucks require certain conditions in
order to function well. They do not run on tracks and
hence good visibility is
must be steered with care
essential. They require a smooth, unencumbered road
surface
hence snow must be plowed from the streets.
They often refuse to start in cold weather
hence
abandoned cars must be towed. Each vehicle needs a
parking space of considerable size when not in use.
Thus a transportation system based on motor vehicles
—

requires some very expensive public services. The tax base
of Buffalo is hardly adequate to support the quality of
service demanded by the public; nor are sufficient parking
places available so that on-street parking can be banned.
During the harsh winter of 1976-77, the conditions
necessary for efficient transportation in the city could not
be maintained. The whitcout pf January 29th was the
straw that broke the camel’s back, because it caused so
many people to abandon their cars that even major traffic
arteries became hopelessly blocked. As a result thousands
of people were stranded in their cars, and the services upon
which we all rely
including repair of utility lines,
delivery of goods by truck and fire and police protection
could not function.
The Blizzard was not as great a threat to life as a flue
epidemic
in the Buffalo area only about thirty people
actually died. Most were found dead in their cars or
perished trying to get to shelter after abandoning their
vehicles. Whether they died of heart attacks, carbon
monoxide inhalation or exposure, they were not prepared
in clothing or in physical fitness to cope with the weather
outside of that warm haven, the car. In wondering at the
confidence and security most Americans feel in their
automobiles, I have come to realize that for many families
the car is like a second home, equipped with as many of
the comforts of home as they can afford. But amenities
like carpeting and stereo do not make the automobile a
safe refuge from the world. It requires frequent refueling;
it is mechanically unreliable; and its motion depends on
traffic and road conditions which are beyond the driver’s
control. The sense of power it conveys is largely illusory.
—

-

-

When our tansportation system broke down, a
temporary disintegration of society occurred. The
economy ceased to function. The natural gas shortage was
an aggravating factor, but even without it many people
would have been unable to get to work. Panic reactions
were common: What will I do if my child gets sick? Do we
have effective police and fire protection? Will I be able to
heat my home? Will there be enough food? Maybe we will
never return to normal! In the absence of public leaders
capable of inspiring confidence, it was “every man for
himself.’’ Nor could people’s fears be dismissed as
irrational, because no one knew how long the crisis would
last, and because public services could not keep up with
the need for help. The experience of the Blizzard showed
both the extent of our dependence on the transportation
system and the vulnerability of that system.
Despite the attempts of human beings to build our
own world through technology, Nature is still primary.
Our technology cannot emancipate us from nature,
although that is one of mankind’s oldest dreams. We
cannot control the weather; we cannot even predict such
natural catastrophes as floods, earthquakes and blizzards.
Natural forces are variable, not constant Our civilization is
fragile insofar as it cannot tolerate more than a limited
range of environmental conditions. If we can learn to be
more adaptable to the conditions imposed on us by nature,
then humanity may survive the next Ice Age

Recipe for disaster
To the half million participants in this annual northern nightmare,
Buffalo has always been uneasily called "home." But last winter
brought a new meaning to the term. Home became a place to endure as
well as endear.
The Blizzard of 77 was one of nature’s very own idiosyncracies.

those fearless forecasters of the National Weather Service were
cognizant of the whole episode all along.
The Blizzard arrived on January 28 complete with sub-zero
temperatures. According to Paul Lazarus, a radar technician for the
National Weather Service, the day brought “a fast moving area of high
pressure and very low temperature.” When it reached the Buffalo
metropolitan area, packing
indominatable winds and the
aforementioned temperatures. Thus, the Blizzard was bom. In essence
the wind gusts were the main problem. Many who survived this ordeal
believed that it was the shear snowfall that closed school and generally
disrupted life for a week and a half. Actually only about a foot fell at
the time, but 69 m.p.h. winds more than made up for a “stingy”
snowfall. In some locations, drifts of up to 20 feet were recorded.
The low temperature for January 28 was -4 degrees Farenheit at
11 a.m., the high a balmy 26 degrees.
The following three days Buffalo fell into a respite with only
slightly brutal 50 m.p.h. winds. Lazarus said, “It took about four days
to blow itself out, four days of winds like that all contributed to the
prolonged adversity."

So far this year we are trailing last year’s total snowfall record. As
of January 23, 110.9 inches have fallen since October.1. Last year at
this time Buffalo had seen 144 inches, some three feet more than this
year.
The major difference between this year and last is undoubtedly the
wind. The relentless gusts fashioned imposing drifts that made many
roads impassable for days on end. This year the snow seems to have
fallen and remained at consistent depths throughout the city.
On a month by month basis this winter: October was lower than
the normal; November was slightly higher; December was just about
average; January has been slightly below what is expected.
Records set last winter include: 45 consecutive days without
the
mercury ever climbing to freezing; 53 days in a row with
some
snowfall; during January there were no days above freezing; and
perhaps the most distinguished record Buffalo has to boast about is the
199.4 inches total snowfall from October 1 to May 8 of last year.

The Spectrum: I see. Getting back to your

didn’t really do anything you don’t normally do,
you just moved to new locations. For instance,
Buffalo had a record-breaking amount of snow,
while Alaska and parts of the mid-west were virtually
dry for much of the winter.
M. Nature: That’s very true. Of course, you
must realize that heavy snow in places like Colorado
is nothing unexpected. I figured It would give them

decided they could use a break from all the white

From sea to shiverfeig sea
An entire nation was captivated
by the image of Buffalo freezing

A cool million
Profiteers $oak the $torm
for all it's worth
For many Buffalonians, the Blizzard of 77 may have been a
disaster. For manufacturers who produced blizzard memorabilia, all
that snow proved a financial windfall. Souvenir T-shirts, coffee mugs,
plaques, survival certificates, pendants, games and even bottled snow
commemorating the worst winter in 107 years are available throughout
Western New York.
A blizzard T-shirt depicts a disgruntled bull, dressed in boots,
scarf, and hat. Surrounded by snow, he holds a shovel in a gloved hoof.
The T-shirt’s caption reads, “I survived the Blizzard of 77.” According
to local salesmen, sales of the T-shirt slackened after the initial novelty
wore off.
Another souvenir of Buffalo's 42 consecutive snow days is a
Certificate of Survival. Selling for about a dollar, this piece of paper
certifies that the holder has “overcome, surmounted, and otherwise
survived what shall heretofore be known as the Great Blizzard of 77.”
It also lists essential dates along with records the Blizzard set. A
salesman at University Plaza guaranteed that the certificate would be a
collector’s item in the future.
L.L. Berger stores, "Buffalo’s first family of fashion,” recently ran
a Blizzard promotion. Referring to the storm, the heading reads, "Just
remember the warmth.” Besides advertising an amateur Blizzard photo
contest, Berger’s is selling a historical photo book entitled “Buffalo
Buried.” Also, one may purchase a 14-karat gold snow shovel pendant,
inscribed with "Blizzard of 77” for “only” $50-$75.
Sunny Side up
The most commercially successful article of memorabilia is the
Blizzard of 77 Travel Game, manufactured by C. P. Marino Company.
Since marketing in July, over 50,000 games have been sold, according
to company president Charles P. Marino. Marino designed the game
after being stuck in a Buffalo suburb for two days.
The Blizzard of 77 Travel Game consists of a two-sided game
board. The object of the game is to return home after receiving five
essential playing cards, which are labeled “work, food store, bank,
hardware store, and drug store.” Suiting on the "sunny side,” players
move their pieces through streets labeled Thruway, Main Street,
Fuhrmann Boulevard, Youngman and Kensington Expressways.
Weather cards, similar to Monopoly’s Community Chest, are drawn.
If the Blizzard card is picked, the game board is turned over to the
"blizzard side.” As Rule 11 of the game sutes, “The Blizzard Strikes.”
Such obsUcles as dead batteries, high drifts, zero visibility, and skids
make it harder to get home. One can go to jail for landing on wrong
spaces, such as the mayor’s driving ban. Former Buffalo Mayor
Makowski is mentioned in the rules.
Losers come here
Marino offered reasons why people reminisce about a snow
disaster. He believes the blizzard was an adventure, which brought
many people together. “We ourselves did not cause the blizzard, but
I’m proud of how we reacted to it,” he added.
Promotions of Western New York’s stormy weather are not limited
to this area. Disc Jockey Jack Harris of radio station WFLA in Tampa,
Florida is offering a contest in which the winners will be given free
tickets to Disney World. Losers of this “Great Snow Job Contest” will
be sent to Buffalo for a weekend in February. Marino’s Blizzard Game
is marketed in fifteen states, as far South and West respectively as
Florida and Oregon. Ford Motor Company’s slogan in Georgia
exclaims, “if a Ford can last through the Blizzard of 77, then it can
last in Columbus, Georgia." Excedrin’s advertisements ask, “What do
Buffalonians take for a headache?”
.■
Recent local editorials have blamed excessive commercialization as
the cause of the headache. Sales promotions depicting “Blizzard
Survival” and capitalizing on a disaster have been criticized for giving
Buffalo a reputation as a dangerous place to live.

Because of its implications td
native
BuffalonianS
stranded
within their own city, as well as to
outsiders trapped within the
disaster, the “Blizzard of 77” was
a major influence in shaping or
changing people’s impressions of
“The City of Good Neighbors.”
Virtually hundreds of visitors
to the city were stranded when
the storm cut off all modes of
transportation not only in and out
of Buffalo, but also within the
city. The national news coverages
of the event introduced many to a
large, but formerly not too
important city. Opinions vary as
to how the Blizzard affected
outsiders’ feelings of Buffalo,
although it is generally agreed that
the city’s misfortune gave it
national
attention
and
the
it
as
snowbelt
of
stereotyped
the northeast. The Director of
Community Affairs for the
Buffalo
Area
Chamber
of
Commerce, Al Cooper, stated,
“Nationally, whether the storm
was good or bad, it let everyone
know where Buffalo was located.
The situation was magnified
however,
which led to an
over-emphasized image of our
weather. I get the feeling that the
four-day situation made people
think we’re like that 365 days a
year.”

A question of survival
A Public Information Specialist
for the Buffalo District of the
Ross
Corps of
Engineers,
Fredenberg supported Cooper’s
statement. “People from outside
of the city think of Buffalo as
having severe winters and a dreary
environment,” he said. "The man
I worked for last year at the time
of the Blizzard has since taken a
job in New Orleans. He tells me

the defensive by questions such as
‘How did you survive?’ When
asked -if he though people were
serious when they" questioned
Buffalonians’ survival, Fredenberg
”

responded

affirmatively saying,
"The Blizzard set Buffalo with a
type of pioneer image. People feel
Buffalonians face tremendous
hardships when winter comes.”
Many hotel managers and staff
members expressed the same
opinions. Karen McDonough, a
secretary at the Airport Holiday
Inn which accomodated at least
500
strandees
last January
claimed, “People from outside of
Buffalo saw the unity and
combined efforts of the people in
the city, but I think their
impressions of Buffalo were most
greatly formed in regard to the
weather. Whenever people call
here they alway ask what the
weather is like. They are really
hesitant to visit during the winter
months.”
No help
more positive
A slightly
opinion was expressed by two
other sources. “I think people
from outside of the city left with
a positive feeling of Buffalo," said
Resident Manager of the Statler
Hilton Hotel, Mel Siorczak. “You

could feel the warmth among the
people. If anything, I think the
Blizzard was a shot in the arm for
the city. The detrimental effects
such as inconviences were erased
by the unity.”
The General Manager of the
Inn-Buffalo
East,
Sheraton
Kenneth Ranchil stated, ‘To
outsiders of the city, the Blizzard
certainly didn’t help the image of
Buffalo.” However, he added, “I
do think that the negative feelings
and publicity, were dissipated by
the unity in the efforts of those
stranded.”
As
for
Buffalonians’
of
their
impressions
city since the
storm, the overwhelming opinion
is that the event exemplified a
closeness where people worked
together for everyone’s benefit.
the

were
“Locally
said.
“It
interesting,” Cooper
brought the people of the city
closer and formed a unity. Proof
of this ties in the fact that parties
and reunions are arranged for the
next three days. I think it’s good
that after adversity people can
rally and laugh, not at the sorrow
but at what was generally a
difficult situation.”
McDonough also supported the
idea that the storm, frequently
termed
a
was
“disaster,”
beneficial to Buffalo. “People
who lived in and around Buffalo
that were stranded tried to enjoy
themselves and were encouraged
by
the
warmth
betweeen
everyone. I think that impression
lasted and really helped the city,”
she said.
Perhaps, the infamous Blizzard
of ’77 was the impetus needed to
promote actions which would
fulfill the expectations behind the
term “City of Good Neighbors.”

Goodyear's prisoners
banged their cages
As the fury of the storm spent itself on the city, closed the
University and caged in dormitory students like prisoners in their ceils,
the residents of Goodyear Hall shared the excitement, fought the
boredom, partied their brains out, and survived what the T-shirt
industry now propagates as ‘The Blizzard of 77."
Over 900 students were trapped in Goodyear, excluding countless
numbers of friends and bed partners who were unable to return to their
houses or rooms on the Amherst Campus. People congregated in the
lounges watching squats move in from the northwest and within a
period of just a few minutes, swirl around, encircling the dorms.
Outside, people walked with their heads bent to the wind, trying
to find their cars, get across Main Street to Super Duper, or stock up at
Leo Simmons Liquor Store. Temperatures were
the now
rumored to range from 40 degrees below zero to minus eighty with the
wind chill factor. Of course, when it gets that cold, the temperature
became another statistic in the ever-increasing bits of trivia.
Statistics were constantly being recorded. The unfortunate few
who had frozen to death, the increasing masses of people trapped in
their offices, the number of National Guardsmen being called in to help
this stricken city, and the inevitable mounting number of inches of

snow.

Unsmoked grass
Dorm statistics were also being monitored; the number of
continual bongs that one person could absorb, the speed it takes to do
three shots of Jack Daniels, the earliest one could start partying before
brushing of the teeth, the ridkufous hours that people slept, and most
importantly the amount of marijuana unsmoked.
On Monday, the University announced that school would be
closed through Thursday, but everyone knew that the Friday opening
was just to prevent people from abandoning the city for the weekend.
It didn't help. Every day some determined claustrophobic would try
and escape. Many did, sonfe getting captured, snowed-in somewhere
else, some getting home, and others, defeated, forced to turn back.
For the people who stayed, there were countless games of
Scrabble, backgammon, monopoly, whist, hearts and fute. Televisions
and stereos played endlessly. The Inter-Residence Council (IRC) had a
free movie marathon and a Gong Show. Goodyear Cafeteria had never
seen so many souls with the possible exception of the John Valby beer
blast last year. It was a captive audience.
The rest of the country was going “Buffalo crazy;” Newspapers
and television hyped the storm. Parents called their kids asking, “Do
you have heat. Are you all right. What are you doing for food?” The
response: "Yeah. Rne. Don’t worry. Bye.” Johnny Carson and
Saturday Nitfu Live feasted upon Buffalo jokes. The President sent
Chip to declare Buffalo a national disaster area. Mayor Makowski
issued a driving ban.

It almost seemed like all of .Ellicott swayed to the whistle of the
wind in one continuous undulating notion. Never before have so many
cooped-up people lived together for a whole week in such a splendid
stupor. There were hardly any exceptions. Dru&amp;, sex and wild parties
rocked the walls of Ellicott, and no one seemed ready
to stop.
“I really can’t remember too much about the blizzard except that
there was a lot of snow, and it was windy and I was stoned.”
—Jens Rasch, Wilkeson Quad
The sentiments were just about the same for everyone who was
trapped in the Emerald City during the Great Storm of yesteryear;
everyone partied and partied until the crackling of AM radios
reluctantly announced the reopening of the University. And even then,
the carnage continued to the. end of the semester, leaving many
students academically anaesthetized. “A lot of people started partying
and kept right on partying. There was definitely a decline in academic
interest after the blizzard,” said one Wilkeson RA, Joe Yabor.
Many people claimed that it was too early in the semester to start
"getting into” school, because no one had their schedules together, and
even fewer people had books. One RA from Richmond, George
Talboys, commented, “The big problem was that I only had one book,
and after the first couple of days, I got really bored. There was really
nothing else to do but abuse your body.”
Only in Gasport
The Pub was closed after the first couple of
because the
University Police were concerned about transporting students in case of
an emergency like an overdose. According to Assistant Director of
University Police lack Eggert, the number of incoming calls to
University Police headquarters increased dramatically. Many people
were calling because they had no money, no food, and no place to stay.
Some students even called to ask if University Police could take them
home. “I only live in Gasport,” one unabashed student pleaded. People
called the police for general assistance. Often, University Police had to
brave the blistering winds of the storm to rescue people who tried to
travel. “We rescued a bunch of students who were trying to get to
Governor’s,” Eggert said. When on their rescue missions, the snow
squad followed a snow plow in order to reach their destinations, but
after the first few days they were able to use jeeps with four-wheel
drive.
About a dozen officers were stranded at the Ellicott Complex.
They stayed in Porter Quad and had their headquarters at the Health
Services office in Porter. “It was really nice being there. We took shifts
and the kids were great. They gave us blankets, pillows and sleeping
bags and were really nice to us.” One Porter resident reminisced about
spending the Blizzard days with the officers, "They were really great
people. They partied with us, but they really did an awful lot of
work.”
Anchorage?
The Housing Office was busy keeping everyone happy and offered
many sundry activities for partied-out people to attend. A group of
Head Residents compiled a newsletter called the “I'd rather be in
Anchorage Alaska News,” which told of many activities and
summarized the current waether report. One Wilkeson Head Resident,
Joni McCool, explained how the Housing staff worked to keep people
busy and out of trouble. “We were constantly having staff meetings.
There was a group of lawyers who were stranded in Spaulding after a
conference. We asked them to make a presentation, something to keep
people out of mischief." Desperate Ellicottians showed up for the
seminar, according to McCool, part of which was a reinactment of the
Sam Shepherd case. It was probably the only really intellectual thing
going on in all of Ellicott. “I was interested in seeing some education
,
take place,” McCool said.

Everyone may have celebrated to excess, but residents still pulled
together and helped one another. “We worked,” McCool said, “but we

found outlets for their frustration.
Arthur Kryns, Professor in the School
of Social Work here, and author of a report
on the Blizzard, confirmed the higher sex
rate. In his study, Buffalo Blizzard of 77.
The Human Experience, Kryns said, many
indulged
in
“time-killing
people
recreational and consumptive behaviors
[including] several instances of sexual
activities.”
A lot of people used the Blizzard to
have a good time," commented Kryns.
“They were confined; there was nothing to
do but wait for the storm to subside.”

Much needed rest
Some students literally moved into a
partner’s room. “I didn’t live in my room
at all,” reported one such woman. Another
female moved her mattress into her
boyfriend’s room so that they could both
get some much needed rest.
In a Main Street dorm, things got a little
more adventuresome. Reportedly, some
males tried to organize an orgy. They
readied the matwesses and invited the
participants. But The Spectrum was unable
to find out the results of that endeavor.
Of course, not all students (or even
most) were sexually active during the
Blizzard. Many, many of them were either
too trunk or too stoned to be at all
interested. Others just didn’t have the
opportunity, arid members of that group
dealt with their frustrations in various
ingenious ways.

-

Black market rubbers
Director of the Sexuality Education
Center Ellen Foley agreed with Kryns and
said that, unfortunately, -a lot of people
were caught without birth control. The
Center cancelled four clinics during the
storm and thus many students had tittle
accessibility to contraceptives. According
to one Ellicott resident, some students
exploited this situation by selling their
extra condoms at a significant mark-up.
And some students were forced to do
without contraception, as evidenced by the
increased number of women
who
underwent pregnancy tests after the
Blizzard.
Among the happiest students during the
Blizzard were those students who had a
boyfriend or girlfriend close by. One active
lad, who said he was usually too busy to
have much sex, remembers the Blizzard
nostalgically; “I just stayed in bed with my
girlfriend all the time.” Did they have time
td be more inventive than usual?
''Definitely."

Pro-social contract
Of course, for some people it wasn’t
tfiat easy. One determined student did
manage to drive to his girlfriend's house
some seven miles away at the height of the
storm. But another commuter student was
frustrated when he hiked to his girlfriend’s
house a few blocks away and could do no

Sex and the
fling or whirl
Some feasted on carnal knowledge
while others suffered in celibacy
more than hold hands (her parents were
home)
According to Kryns, many people
experience increased pro-social behavior
during a disaster and this phenomenon was
also evidenced by the many students who
had sexual contact as a result of the
Blizzard.
One off-campus female noted that both
she and her housemate had affairs that

they wouldn’t have had in normal times.
One woman was generally very faithful to

her out-of-state boyfriend, but during the
Blizzard started seeing and then sleeping
with a man she had met in a bar. The other
housemate had a one night stand with an
old friend. Both relationships ended when
school began again. Why was their behavior
different during the Blizzard? “We were
bored and we wanted some excitement.

Affectionate dog
One off-canipus resident reported that
one of his three housemates was havingsex
regularly with his girlfriend. “We were all
very conscious that we weren’t having sex,
so wp lavished increased attention on our
dog,” he said. A desperate dormie even
broke into Fillmore 170 to see IRC's illegal
clip of “Deep Throat.”
Another student, a member of an all
female household, said that all her
housemates did was eat: “We all gained ten
pounds from the Blizzard.” She also said
that they were all totally inactive sexually.
"Maybe that’s why we ate so much,” she
mused.
Many dorm residents were literally on
the outside looking in as their roommates
bedded partners while they sought other
places to sleep. A student in Governors
reported being driven from his room for
days by his roommate’s “red thumb tack”
signal.
One dorm female, strictly an observer,
thought that there wasn’t much more
activity, but that it was conducted in a
different way. "Usually, people sneak
around at 4 a.m., but during the Blizzard,
people were brazeningly having sex in Jhe
afternoon. They were less concerned about
privacy,” She explained.

In the face of adversity
Nothing stays the die-hards

from their a-printed rounds
Deep down we’re probably all romantics and we're in
it for the excitement The wind chill factor was -43
Thursday, January 27, 1977, and Western New York was
bracing for three new inches of snow that day. Roads were
already impassable before the morning rush hour and the
school and business dosings read like the Buffalo Yellow
Pages except, as the radio announcers icily pointed out,
“UB is open.”
The Spectrum staff, converging from Amherst,
Clarence ancl all parts of Buffalo, started the third day’s
work on a 24-page Friday issue when the University's
announcement of closing came at 9 a.m.
Though we all decried the absurdity of not closing
(one of the Friday editorials blasted the University
Administration for its insensitivity), we were left facing 24
pages that perhaps no one else would see since the
University had no plans to reopen before Monday. Never
having scrapped an issue, we rationalized that the students
at . Amherst would be stranded (we didn’t realize how
prophetic a statement this would be for all the residents of
Western New York) and they would read the issue from
cover to cover if we could deliver it to the printer and then
get the papers to the Amherst Campus.
A certain pride

Phone calls: Would the printer remain open? Would

the delivery people attempt to run from the Cheektowaga
printing plant to the Amherst Campus? There is a certain
pride in accomplishing the near-impossible and, though
most of the University community didn’t see it, The
Spectrum delivered a 24-page edition to the Amherst and
Main Street Campuses on Friday, January 28, 1977, the
first day of the Blizzard that would make international
news.
The newspaper for Monday, January 31, was cancelled
before it was begun. The official closing announcement
had made it clear the University was remaining flexible on
a Monday reopening and The Spectrum could not
knowingly publish two issues with reduced readership
because of the financial risks involved. On Thursday the
advertisements and announcements already scheduled for
Monday
paper were
squeezed
that
into the
nearly-completed Friday edition. As the weekend ended,
the blizzard continued and there was no question that the
University along with the rest of the city would remain
closed indefinitely.

Smorgasbord
For the next few days the staff was segmented, some
Withering in the Bailey Avenue bars, others making beer
runs at Ellicott, and some finishing their incomplete for
the first time since they became active staff members.

Story assignments, decisions concerning when and
how many pages to print, security clearance to enter the
locked Student Union were all handled by telephone. We
anticipated less than '24 hours notice to produce our next
issue.

The city-wide driving ban was lifted Thursday and the
University planned to reopen the following day, Friday,
February 4. A core staff gathered in The Spectrum office
laying out an oddly-assorted smorgasbord that would
sustain us if we became stranded. Stories had to be
dictated over the telephone since the inter-campus buses
were not running. Again phone calls to the printer and the
delivery people were made. Everyone in the office did
whatever was needed to complete the issue.
It snowed all that day. The five inches new
accumulation made a total of more than 40 inches on the
ground. Snarled traffic hampered plowing efforts and, as
of Thursday night, February 3, the city had another ban
on driving. The University cancelled its plans to reopen
Friday. Again we had produced an issue that bencfitted
only dorm residents.

There were no plans for a Monday issue. The
information in the February 4 edition was still current at
that time. The Spectrum resumed its normal publication
schedule Wednesday, February 9.

The Spectrum

�Academia in the aftermath
A professor researches the Blizzard's imprint

Nature calls...

-Jim Moran

-continued from page five

on Buffalo, a city already on its knees financially; wasn’t that adding
insult to injury?
M. Nature: Are you kidding? I put that city on the map. Do you
know that Buffalo made the front page of the London'Times? People
were talking about that all summer long. All you had to do was
mention that you were in Buffalo during the blizzard and you were an
instant hit at cocktail parties. And what about all those cute little
tee shirts they made afterwards? "1 survived the Blizzard of 77.” At
least they had a sense of humor about the whole thing. Not like those
crybabies out on the West Coast. Okay, so it was a little parched’ out
there this summer. You give’em some rain and right away they’re
screaming “flood, flood.” You just can’t win.
The Spectrum: As far as I know, it was more than “some” rain.
M. Nature: Well, whatever. I never did like that west-coast
attitude; a bunch of spoiled car freaks, if you ask me. 1 suppose I did
give it to them a bit more than necessary; although they’re still not out
of the dark as far as their water supply is concerned. I understand
restaurants out there are still charging a dime for a glass of water.
The Spectrum: In other words, you thought the people in Buffalo
handled the storm well?
M. Nature: Oh, yes, yes. People were so nice to each other then.
Going to the store, shoveling out cars. I thought-it was kind of
heart-warming to see people skiing along Main Street without having to
worry about getting hit by cars. Unfortunately, the Mayor didn’t get
the message,, so I had to bring in that second storm to get him to
reinstate the ban dh driving. But yes, I wanted to do something that
would bring everybody together, get them to meet their neighbors, you
know? I thought I, and the people, succeeded nicely in that area. Did
you know that there was a marked increase in childbirths nine months
after the blizzard; very similar to the one that occurred in New York
after the first blackout?
The Spectrum: Speaking of which, what was the reason behind the
blackout in New York this summer? That was pretty brutal.
M. Nature: Well, I’ll tell you a secret: I didn’t actually plan on
knocking out that power station. Some smartass thunderbolt did that
on its own. Originally, I called for a good-sized rainstorm; something to
show those dumb city officials that they’re all wet, in my opinion. We
got a tad overzealous on that one. But did you catch that Manhattan
skyline, with all the lights out and the moon in the background? What
a knockout! Very impressionistic! I made a special trip to Brooklyn to
see that.
The Spectrum: Are you saying there are aesthetic considerations in
your work?
M. Nature: Usually, although people don’t always appreciate them.
The ice storm on Long Island last week looked great. All the plants had
that coating of ice around them that glistened so nice in the sun. The
snow was mainly for the kids; they don’t get much of an opportunity
to go sleigh riding there.
The Spectrum: One last question. Could you explain those strange
explosions being heard off the Atlantic coast? Even scientists are
baffled.
M. Nature: I’d rather not say anything about that now. I want to
keep the suspense going. National Enquirer has been doing that one up
big; if your readers want the real story, maybe they could read it there.
—Gerard Sternesky

Emerald City

Despite its frightening manner, The Blizzard of
‘77 was not a traumatic experience for a majority of
area residents. The storm’s impact upon the lives of
Buffalo area residents was not an “unconditionally
negative one” according to a research study done by
Professor of Social Psychology Arthur G. Cryns and
assistant, Raymond T. Conjeski. The project,
entitled: “The Buffalo Blizzard of ’77. A Human
Experience,” culminated in a 72 page report
“descriptive of Buffalo area resident reactions to the
Blizzard of ’77.”
Personal property and income losses, although
substantial in a cumulative sense, were relatively
light and affected a minority of the area labor force.
Anxiety and fear reactions were reported by a
surprisingly small number of respondents.
The Blizzard provided a number of area
residents with a welcome opportunity to be at home
with family and friends. Some found the storm as an
occasion to celebrate.
The study ranks the Blizzard as the least
destructive of common natural hazards. This finding,
the study reads, “is particularly noteworthy if one
considers that all had first hand knowledge of the
storm and that most faced it without forewarning.

69 items
The research was based on interviews with a
random sampling of 103 city and suburban residents
from Buffalo, Amherst, and Orchard Park. The
residents interviewed were 18 years of age and older.
The survey used a 69 item questionaire containing
specific blizzard related questions. In addition, a
modified version of a sentence completion test aided
in uncovering responses to specific blizzard
experience the emotions involved and the amount
of external vs. internal emotional control.
Results of the study describe economic losses,
socio-behavioral effects, help and assistance from
others, local government handling of snow, advance
warning and precautions taken during the blizzard.
Research shows that economic losses were
caused mainly by the storm itself. 40 percent of the
total sample reported some measure of personal
property loss and damage caused by the heavy
snowfall. The dollar value of these losses varied from
-

$10 to $3,000.
62 per cent of all respondents lost one or more
days of work during the storm. Of these, 44 per cent
also encountered some form of wage and pay loos;
the median amount being $279. Income loss for
suburban workers was slightly less than for city

workers.

For the sample as a whole, confinement and
isolation was regarded as the major disadvantage of
the blizzard. Affective reactions to the storm such as
anxiety and fear make up only 16 percent of the
sample response. Anxiety and apprehension was
higher among elderly females (60 years or older)
while isolation and reduced mobility was mentioned
predominately by young adults, elderly males and by
women of all ages. Those living alone felt restricted
more often than those living with others. However,
those living alone were affected less negatively than
might have been expected.
The relief efforts assumed by area organizations
were tremendous; The Buffalo Chapter of the
American Red Cross reported that it fed SO,000
persons during the first five days of the snow
emergency and the Salvation Army gave out over
46,000 food packages along with serving meals to
literally thousands of people. The organization also
distributed clothing and' provided emergency
housing. The study reports that 37 percent of all
respondents received some form of assistance from
others during the bad weather. 47 percent of the
sample singled out friends as the most frequent
source of aid, followed by relatives and immediate
family. There was a low proportion of aid from
public officials.
Suburbs plowed better
Respondents gave “good” to "fair” ratings when
asked to evaluate the City of Buffalo and the Towns
of Amherst and Orchard Park in the handling of the
snow crisis. The suburban areas fared much better
than the City of Buffalo in snow plowing.
In evaluation of the city driving bam, 88 percent
agreed that it was necessary, and 34 percent said
they were restricted by the ban.
Most agreed that an adequate snow removal job
was done under the conditions. However, the area
public noted a general lack of preparation for a
major storm.

According to the study, on January 28 most
area residents went about their lives routinely
without any forewarning of a blizzard. This is a
shocking claim since the day of the blizzard, the
National Weather Service had issued a winter storm
watch at 5 a.m., which was upgraded to a blizzard
warning six hours later. Among those who were
aware of a forewarning, the radio was mentioned
most frequently as a source, followed by television.
Results from the study also suggest that those
who had received advance warning were as prepared
as those who were surprised hours later.

also had some fun.” Some RA’s were stationed at the Nurses Office to
help in emergency situations, and there was an emergency team ready
at all times in case of feievere medical crisis. According to McCool, the
Housing staff learned a;lot. “RA’s now have their own first aid kits,
and I’d like to see an intercom system developed in Ellicott to
announce important news in case of another emergency like that one,’’
she concluded.

tuxedos galore
One of the most important affects the Blizzard had on Ellicott was
the way rumors seemed to spread like wildfire. People were constantly
launching skiing trips to 7-11 for beer, food and munchies, and great
tales of the outdoors filled the indoors. George Talboys remembered
one such story; “Supposedly some guy tied a sheet to his ankles and
wrists and glided across the lake on skis. I don’t know how true it was,
but it was a great story to tell."
A resident of Red Jacket, Larry Knipfmg, told about how he saw
people gliding on Food Service trays down the slope outside his
window. Knipfmg remembered one particular party which Buffalonian
Editor Libby Post attended, "She broke her ankle when she stepped
off an elevator but she couldn’t get to a hospital right away. She was

The Blizzard of 77 Is now being immortalized in
souvenirs, newspapers, glasses, shove! necklaces and pen
holders. / don‘t need any such reminders of those days back in
January. It was a lesson in friendship and generosity and holds
memories for many people that won‘t soon be forgotten .. .

The Blizzard of 77 lives in each of us. To some It was
an extended nuisance: or
beauty dressed as violence; to others a villiflcation of nature. And some
consider It
the essence of Buffalo. To the families of the 23 persons who
perished, The Blizzard
was a tragedy of the worst degree.
The Spectrum chose to revisit The Blizzard for all of the above
reasons and because of
our own fascinations with the event.
We hope you have enjoyed all ofit.

State University of New York at Buffalo. It is operated entirely by students, with
the exception of the full-time employees in the Business Office. We are funded
through mandatory activity fee monies from the various Student Associations.

These monies provide the activities and services offered by the four activities
divisions of Sub-Board.
Our structure is not as complex or mysterious as many people make it out
to be. Our operations are administered by a Board of Directors composed of
representatives from the various student governments. Division Directors are the
individuals responsible for the day-to-day operations of the activity divisions of
Sub-Board which are Hstedljelow, along with the activities and services provided

&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;

University closing
The University was closed yesterday at 2 p.m. Blue Bird buses
ran between Main Street and the Amherst Campus until 7 p.m.
when, guess what, they stopped running. The University was
expected to remain closed today, although Vice President of
Finance and Management Edward Doty declined comment on its
state of affairs. University Police urged people not to call them
about school opening, but to listen to the radio for the most
prompt information, thereby freeing the lines for emergency calls.

Would shift defense funds

Proposed amendment
designed to aid cities
by Bradshaw Hovey
Spectrum Staff Writer

NYPIRG's Esther Misrahi campaigns for NFG Boycott
Assurances that gas won’tbe cut off

President Carter was attacked Wednesday for breaking his promises
to cut defense spending and aid the Cities by members of the Buffalo
Common Council and a coalition of community groups led by the
Western New York Peace Center.
University District Councilman Eugene M. Fahey announced he
would introduce a resolution to have the City back the WNY Peace
Center’s call to support passage in Congress of a transfer amendment,
sponsored by representatives from Baltimore and Buffalo. The
amendment to the budget resolution for fiscal year 1979 would trim
funds from the military budget and channel savings into jobs, housing,
energy, agriculture and military conversion.
South District Councilman James P. Keane explained his support
for the amendment as a political act. “We’re pleading as Democrats to a
Democratic President and a Democratic Congress,’’ he said, to pay “die
same amount of attention to problems of the cities as to the military
industrial complex.”

Coordinator of the WNY Peace Center, Walter Simpson, predicted

Lower budget ceilings
The Transfer Amendment would not switch money from specific
military programs to specific “human needs” programs, but would
lower the budget ceilings in the former categories while raising them in
the latter ones. Specific and binding reallocations of funds would be

recommendations made in the Transfer Amendment.
. The Coalition for a New Foreign and Military Policy, a national
organization leading a Transfer Amendment campaign, has published a
“model. Transfer Amendment” which would cut military spending by
$1$ million and increase “human needs” programs by an equal
amount. It recommends that the Pentagon reduce spending in nudear
arms, covert action by the CIA, military aid to dictators,
“interventionist military forces” and a variety of other areas.
The model amendment calls for increases in funding for
community development programs, housing, the Urban Development
Bank, mass transit, home weatherization, CETA, military conversion,
health care research, nutrition, farm support, solar energy, energy
research and conservation programs.

�CouncilmanFahey:
sign of the seventies
by Bradshaw Hovey
Spectrum Staff Writer
A pair of brown, high-top, lace-up work boots are visible beneath
his new Councilman’s desk. They are well broken in. He explains how
“differences in lifestyle separated people politically” back when. Now,
he says, people aren’t interested in “whether someone’s living with
their wife or they’re living with their girlfriend.” Rather, they are
interested in “the real issues,” such as “the survival of the City.”
Apparently, he is right, because 9740 people in the University

Jobs created
Fahey, like many others, sees
economics at the center of the
problems which afflict Buffalo.
“We

international economy,” he says.
“What happens in Tokyo and
Saudi Arabia affects what happens

here.” So, Fahey thinks there
must be a decision to retool the
area’s industrial capacity and turn
the area from “an industrial
center of the 1930’s into an
industrial center of the 1970’s.”
He is skeptical about the plan
to transform Buffalo’s economy
into a service-oriented one. The

would create jobs for “taxicab
drivers, waitresses and cleaning
ladies,” he remarks. “I’ve driven a
cab and I wouldn’t recommend it
as a way of life.” To Fahey “jobs
mean an expansion of our
industrial base.” In a service
economy he forsees a city split
into two classes of people: “the
people who serve the drinks and
the people who are wealthy
enough to afford it.”
Although Fahey can grasp the
larger context of the City’s woes,
his main focus is on his own
district, which he likens to “the

blight are marching back and
forth across.” He looks to the

Critical of University
Fahey blames a lack of vision
on the part of elected officials for
“a piecemeal approach” to the
problems of Buffalo. And he also
cites the location. of the new
Amherst Campus, Rich Stadium,
and the Audubon UDC project
outside of the city as evidence of
that same lack of vision. “All
these decisions have crucified
Buffalo over the years,” he says.
Fahey is critical of the
University in other ways. ‘They

Correction
In Wednesday’s edition of The Spectrum, an
error was made in an article about the Student
Association of the State University (SASU). The
refusal to pay cards distributed by SASU in protest
of the new Health Fee should not be sent to Albany,
but should be kept by the individual student. SASU
will keep replicas of the cards on file. Nothing
should be sent to Albany.
The Spectrum apologizes for the error

Wet T-shirt night
a washed up event
The scheduled Wet T-Shirt Night at the Wilkeson Pub has been
swamped as an evening of entertainment. The controversial event was
cancelled last Friday by Director of Food Service Donald Hosie
because
“it is not Food Service’s responsibility to provide

entertainment.”
Hosie defended his decision saying, “I wanted to fall back,
regroup, identify just what our charter is and establish a set of
guidelines for this type of event. Also, what happens if someone
disrobed in the Pub? We could lose our liquor license.”
The contest was originally scheduled because Student Association
(SA) officials had met with Food Service administrators and requested
that more types of programs be sponsored at the EUicott Complex.
Assistant Director of Food Service Donald Bozek stated, “In talking
with student government officials, they said not a whole lot of
programming was going on out there. They wanted to see more
party-type themes sponsored by Food Service.” He added that some
SA officials had said there is not a heck of a lot to do out there during
the weekday evenings.
Sexist?
SA President Dennis Delia sfid, “1 think it would have been all in
fun, but I’m not upset that it’s cancelled. A lot of Buffalo bars have
that kind of entertainment and that’s probably why they thought of
having it in the Pub.”
Hosie said, “It was well-intended, but not in good taste. I would
like to establish a Program Review Committee composed of students
and administrators to establish guidelines for entertainment. Up to
now, the Pub has not been charged with being responsible for
entertainment. Food Service may be infringing on the responsibility of
other student organizations.”
Student reactions to the Wet T-Shirt night and the subsequent
cancellation were quite diverse. Most frequently heard were, “I think
it’s ridiculous,” and “I can’t believe it’s cancelled.” Other reactions
included, “I’m a horny bastard,” and ''We’re dealing with the mentality
of fifteen year olds, who go behind the house and jerk-off with
Playboy." One boasting female said, T was going to enter and win,”
while another suggested that the Pub should sponsor a Wet-Underwear
Night for men to provide “equal time.”
“In a University atmosphere, where we are supposed to act more
like adults than idiots, I think it doesn’t belong,” reacted one male. “I
wouldn’t get my jollies watching it." Many questioned how many
contestants were going to appear. “Sexist, lude, entertaining, or
obnoxious;” no one will know if the contest would have swum or sunk.

�Buff State mystery
sickness ails 160;
defies identification
by Bobbie Demme
Assistant City Editor

of a mysterious infectious illness affecting 160 Buffalo
remained unidentified as of Wednesday evening,
despite the continuing investigative efforts of state and county health
officials.
However, earlier reports linking the outbreak to food poisoning
have been all but scrapped in the wake of cases breaking out as late as
Tuesday. In addition, investigators are said to be “leaning against food
poisoning” because of the lack of a common denominator; the victims
did not all eat in the same place nor the same foods.
The first wave of the illness occurred last Sunday night, when 22
students complained of nausea, diarrhea and vomiting, accompanied in
some cases by chills and a fever. By afternoon the following day, the
number of sick students had risen to 50 and campus health officials
contacted the Erie County Health Department for aid in determining
The
State

Cause

the nature of the illness.

Nothing confirmed
Mary Lou Fleissner, a communicable disease specialist with the
county, coordinated the efforts of sanitarians investigating on campus.
Cultures were taken and sent to county labs; the results were
unavailable as of Wednesday evening. In addition, the regional offices
of the State Health Department sent inspectors to the kitchen of the
school’s Scajaquada Dining Hall where all remaining food from
Sunday’s dinner was confiscated and tested for contamination.
Nothing was confirmed in the way of food poisoning despite the
great similarity and symptoms. Prevailing suspicions have shifted
towards a flu-type virus, according to M. Sullivan, Assistant to the
Director of Health Services at Buffalo State College. ‘They’re now
trying to isolate the virus,” she said.
Fleissner concurred, saying, “It is similar to the typical flu
outbreaks in the community. These explosive proportions are not
usually reached in the community, however.”
Seasonal peak
Director of Health Services at this University M. Luther
Musselmen, has been in contact with health officials from both the
county and the college. He reported that nothing with similar
symptoms turned up in their clinics, but he plans to “be prepared.”
Musselmen acknowledged that the flu is at “a high seasonal peak now,
but the type here on campus has already been identified as Type A.”
Asked whether he thought the “Buff State Strain” might spread
f
further to encompass students here, he replied, “Until I really know
what it is,) can’t say whether it will affect this campus.”
Despite growing evidence against the food poisoning theory,
Buffalo State College Food Service officials were unavailable for
comment as their phone lines were continuously busy Wednesday
afternoon. And students are not letting the issue die easy. Alan Paley,
an on-campus student and participant in BSC’s meal plan was one of
the more than 160 struck down by the as yet unidentified illness.
Hours curtailed
Paley described symptoms already identified by health officials:
“From six to ten Monday morning, I threw up about twelve times. I
still have headaches and stomach aches. I knew people that have had
food poisoning
with the same symptoms.”
Despite the build-up and publicity surrounding their mysterious
illness, students at the college don’t seem panicky or hesitant to eat in
the dining halls. As for spreading off the campus, most stricken
students were treated at the campus health center. However, a few
were treated at area hospitals.
The incience of influenza at this time of the year is typically high;
close quarters facilitate the spreading of the virus. Two area hospitals,
Millard Fillmore and Millard Fillmore Suburban, have curtailed visiting
hours due to the flu. And just last week, Holy Angels Academy, a
Buffalo school, closed its doors for two days with one-third of the
students and faculty out with another flu virus.

Food Service looking

Meal plan options benefit all
by Beth Randeli
Staff Writer

Spectrum

“I think it’s good. It’s convenient. I wanted it
last year and they didn’t have it,” said senior Dave

Vickery, about the new five-tneals-a-week Plan Food
Service (FUS) is now offering. “I didn’t want to
cook but I didn’t want to starve either,” another
student, Angela Scipioni commented.
Students tend to agree that the new option of
any one meal a day, five days a week is a beneficial
addition to the Board Contract Program.
This new meal plan option also benefits Food
Service, according to Assistant Director Donald
Bozek. Without this new addition. Food Service
might have lost those students who were unable to
eat ten meals or more a week due to either a
shortage of funds or class scheduling conflicts. On
the new plan students can conveniently fit whichever
meal they choose each day into their schedules.
Bozek said that requests for this five meal a
week plan began in September 1976 but at that time
FVS did not feel it would benefit students who
would lose money if they missed too many meals.
Food Service officials could also see certain negative
outcomes on their part if, for instance, too many
students switched from the ten to the five meal
option. If this occurred one consequence would be a
Cut in the Food Service labor force.

Missed meal factor
In addition to this, the ten meal plan option
takes into account a missed meal factor. Knowing
that all students on this plan do not attend every
meal that they pay for, less food is prepared and
thus money is saved. With the five meal option this

missed meal factor would not come into play as
readily. Students would, in all probability, eat every
meal paid for. Thus, having to prepare more food,
FVS would have to charge more or else lose money.
Believing this to be a serious drawback, the new plan
was kept under lock and not implemented until this
semester.

Because many students during the second
semester decide either to drop meal plan altogether
or to alter the number of meals they eat per week
(usually downward), Food Service decided to try out
their new plan. “The plan should not have an adverse
effect either on students or on the management,”
said Borek, though it is too early to know the exact
results. When processing of all board contracts is
completed, actual enrollment in the plan will be
more apparent. When the computer record of all
board contracts is complete, there should be a total
of 187 out of 1700 students on the five meal a week
plan or 12 percent of all Students on board which is
few enough to enable FVS to run this program
without any cash difficulties.

Guest meal ticket
The majority of students on this plan are eating
Food Service dinners and making due on their own
for other meals or simply not eating them. When
asked about the new plan, Andrea Cantor, a
freshman from Goodyear said, “The food is too
starchy. This way 1 eat only one meal a day.”
Those students eating on this plan should
evaluate whether it is profitable for them. Buying a
guest meal ticket at each meal might turn out
cheaper. The breakeven point is about 4-5 missed
meals, if 10-12 are missed, students would be wise to
drop the plan and pay for the meals as they are
eaten.

Boycott NFG

“University

When the by now well hyped blizzard struck this city
last winter. National Fuel -Gas (NFG) made record profits,
because obviously as more snow fell, more gas was needed to
prevent icicles from forming on the wails. On January 4 of
this year, the Public Service Commission granted National
Fuel Gas a rate increase of $6,700,000, attaching to it no
such provisions as increased customer service or a ban on
temporary shut-offs during the cold months. Nor did the
rate increase mention a rebate of any amount to natural gas
customers who paid excessive bills last year. Rochester Gas
and Electric granted such a rebate to its customers last year
because of unusually high earnings.
Now the Citizertt' Alliance is asking all Buffalo area
natural gas consumers to “turn the heat on" National Fuel
Gas by participating in a 100-day gas bill boycott. This is a
perfect example of an act of civil disobedience against a local
monopoly which, because it controls the input of natural gas
to the area, can ask for a rate increase as it sees fit. All
students living off campus should participate in the gas bill
Slvfe themselves some money in the
boycott, not
event that the boycott works, but to demonstrate that
"united action by concerned citizens" is an effective means
to fight unjustified profit-making by a huge monopoly. NFG
is able to charge what it pleases because no other company
to whom local natural gas customers could turn for heat
exists.
100 days is approximately the length of time between
when a customer stops payment of his bill and the date on
which NFG will terminate service. Thus, to comfort the fears
of those considering stopping payment but not willing to
risk shutoff, h is possible to participate in the boycott
without taking that risk.
Rather than not pay altogether, however, gas customers
should send their bills with payment enclosed to the
Citizens' Alliance, who will then use the amount
leverage to bargain with the Public Service Commission and
NFG. Although no success is guaranteed, this is the only
means by which the Alliance can effectively bargain; with no
money to back its demands, NFG would laugh it off as being
just another attempt by honest citizens to win back unjust
profits.
Those seeking more information or having reservations
about joining the boycott can call the Alliance at 847-8580.
All bills should be sent to: The Citizens' Alliance, Room
1075 Ellicott Square Building, 295 Main Street, Buffalo
14203.
In addition, a rally to begin the boycott is being held
tomorrow at 11 a.m. in the auditorium of the Buffalo and
Erie County Public Library. Those who are able to go
downtown to Lafayette Square should do so; those who
can't should at least watch the proceedings on TV.

beneath the proverbial rug a most heinous crime
they are clearly guilty of. The despicable group I

in front of his home last June 25th, much to the
horror of a fairly large assembly of witnesses. To
help remind you, I have composed the following

Extend pool hours
Another night I have been denied access to the
pool. Another meet for the team to limber up and
for me to fall apart. The pool hours in the University
are a disgrace. From six till nine is hardly adequate
for a school this size. Minus days set for team meets
and

considering the limitations of one’s

schedule, you are lucky if you can get your feet wet.
Why can’t pool hours be extended especially on
meet days to accommodate the general student
body. Is the three dollars an hour spent for
lifeguards that prohibitive? I ask that the S.A. use
what economic or political pressure it might have to
extend pool hours.

�Disco musical epitomizes the shallow seventies
by Tom Dooney
Spectrum Arts Staff

Earlier this

month.

The Village Voice

published a very fine and very amusing
piece of creative journalism. Staff writers

—

Jack Newfield, Lewis Grossberger and Gil
Eisner collaborated on a somewhat
light-hearted evaluation of the past eight
years the bulk of the nineteen-seventies.
Together they weighed a staggering lot of
social and cultural low points (Anita
Bryant, Burt Lance, Charlie's
Werner Erhard) against a wimpy bunch of
—

unimpressive
high
points
(Nixon's
resignation. Obi Wan Kenobi and Howard
Cosell as modern philosophers) and came
to the conclusion that for the general well
being of humanity we should all abandon
the decade. That's right, flee the sinking
S.S. Seventies. Stop the clock, grab your
socks and scram to the eighties.

After all, what do the seventies most
have to show for themselves besides disco
and punk, the two major trends in popular
mosic bred in this decade. Both have
become lifestyles with distinct social
ethics, dress and dances. Both are
particularly frightening if you have any
sort of social consciousness. Punk is
excused, in this case, because its goals are
to terrify society-at-large and, too, because
there has not been a punk musical film to
review. Saturday Night Fever is a disco
musical, the first to be a major studio
release. Because it is precedent setting, it
has to be looked upon as an explanation,
almost a documentary, of disco life.
Indeed, the screenplay is taken from an
authenticated study of disco clubs and
their hibitues written by Nik Cohn and
published in New York Magazine in June,
1976.
The shallow seventies
John Travolta plays Tony Manero, the
best dancer, at his neighborhood dance
palace and therefore cock of the walk of
Bay Ridge, Brooklyn. Manero and his
friends are dubbed the "Faces,” the guys
to watch for the latest dance moves. All
females are available to the Faces.
Mindlessly loyal to each other and to their
disco, these boys seek revenge by attacking
a Puerto Rican street gang that allegedly
roughed up a dancing buddy. They become
leery the instant a stranger, much less a
Black or Latino, comes to their ulacc.
Disco-ites are pictured as guy* a. J gals
without the slightest interest ir
world
at large. Tony Manero, when discussing
celebrities with his heart throb, is truly
ignorant of -who Cat Stevens or Eric
Clapton is; he askes if Laurence Olivier
could get him a discount on a Polaroid
camera.
If director John Badham wanted to film
a drama about, the shallow seventies
the
era that bred the egocentric world of disco,
and marked by slick orchestrations, the
endless segue and disco queens partnered
with their favorite polyester Fred Astaire,
then Saturday Night Fever is a perceptive
commentary of these times. If, however,
Badham is' glorifying these souls who,
numbed by their middle class lives, become
scintillating personalities as they “bus
stop" (Fascist go-go dancing, as a friend of
mine calls it) on a dance floor that flashes
like a pinball machine gone berserk, then
we have a frightening new set of heroes.

dancing fools, or that we should keep up

with the beat because the best things
happen while you're dancing. A kind of
devil and the deep blue sea proposition if
ever there was one; if the seventies are
disco
duck.
A similar predicament faces us if we try
to gauge John Travolta's performance.
Tony Manero is a Rocky who rocked out;
the boy next door who could go places,
gets the girl of his dreams and wins in the
end. His part (the whole film, in fact) is
more poorly written and developed than
other youth-of-our-times type motion
pictures have been in the past (see James
Dean in Rebel Without A Cause or
Humphrey Bogart in Dead End). Accepting
the fact that Travolta didn't have much of
a film script to work with, he does
admirably. But the character he plays is
too similar to his roles in Welcome Back,
Kotter and Carrie. So, either John is very
adept in exploring the type of young man
who is sensitive and loving
harsh
by a society that doesn't care, or he is
making it in show business by playing
himself over and over again. Granted,
Travolta can dance well. So well that Tony
Manero can dear the dance floor with his
virtuoso 'footwork and inspire the loving
adoration of every female who comes to
...

Double intent
The good moments of the film are the
understated and surprisingly understanding
scenes involving Tony and his elder brother
Frank, a priest who finds the Catholic
church irrelevant. The film sinks to points
of unadulterated schlockiness when Tony
contemplates
the
Verrazano-Narrows
Bridge, in this film a combination symbol
of modern urban wonders and a foreboding
challenge to Manero and his friends who
play acrobats on the span. Stephanie,
portrayed by Karen Gomey, is Tony
Manero's lady love. The screen goes hazy
every blessed time Travolta and Gorney are
in bliss. A small fortune must have been
spent on gauze to make this bit of
sentimental corn possible.

the club to watch this man dance. His

his way to glory are off-set by his new

Badham has not given the film enough

conviction: is Tony a dope or a soft

hearted guy? Is disco a fun way to spend
your days or a symptom of a society intent
on being frivolous? Director Badham, in an
attempt to please all factions, never makes
up his mind. Further proof of the double
intent of this film is seen in two different
advertising slogans. "Where do you go
vrtien the record is over?" ask some of the
posters rhetorically. What do you do when
the only thing you care about ends? Others
urge audiences to "catch the fever," the
excitement of using your feet and
Gucci-like loafers in a brand new way.
The discreet decade
The hardest portion of dealing with the
Saturday Night Fever phenomenon is
coping with the multi media inundation.
Huge blow-ups of Travolta and Gorney
have populated theaters since November.
Every quarter hour the radio plays
"Staying Alive" or "How Deep Is Your
Love" or one of the other non-disco Bee
Gee film themes. (Barry, Robin and
Maurice Gibb also have a not-too-subtly
sexist title for the love song, "More Than a
Woman." What else is she, a giraffe
a
building?) There is a novel selling rapidly
on bookstore racks based on the screenplay
(which in turn is based on the Nik Cohn
article; media to feed the media). A
formidable display of PR; Hollywood
super-sell in all its glory. All designed to
stun the senses, if not the sensibilities, of
the prospective audience. Maybe because
the film isn't enough on its own?
Then again, the seventies will never be
known as a discreet decade.

use either of the two words fat or repulsive in my review
of last Friday night's Meat Loaf concert at the Century

The six numbers on Bat Out of Hell, performed in a
more streched out manner live, are eulogys to the
traumatic years between 16 and the graduation of
college (7), each smartly crammed with metaphorically
clustered plot structures, a la Bruce Springsteen. Two
well remembered numbers "All Revved Up With No
Place To Go" and "Paradise by the Dashboard Lights"
contain quite memoriable sing-song exchanges between

Any of you out there, who think this was Meat
Loaf's sad way of releasing all his pent up matter,
paranoia and other general hostilities at the cruel world
outside of rock and roll, better give this 300 pound
Caucasian cherub another listen to. You've got the story
all wrong. After all, the pianist Jim Steinman wrote the
lyrics to every track on the group's more than noticeable
album on Epic, entitled Bat Out Of Hell. If Meat Loaf's
visual appearance coins a reasonable source for the
alienated lyrics, so skillfully penned
Fine! It could
only lend credibility and continuity to the presentation,
since Steinman neither sings nor (at least I hope not for
his health's sake) does he tell Herr meaty, beaty, big and
bouncy how to do otherwise.

What the hecklers missed was a thoroughly slick
potpourri of theatrics, spagetti western rhythm and
blues, complimented by that archetypical Phil Spector
wall of sound; gobs of teenage laments, heart throbs, tear
jerkers and violent admissions and rejection and a
genuine rocky horror show. All of this sounds quite
ordinary, though when you consider Meat Loaf's and
Jim Stainman's past credentials. Theirs is almost a
marraige made in heaven, although I think it probably
took place somewhere between Dallas, Texas and Long
Island.
Let's start with Jim Steinman who for all intensive
purposes is the guiding force behind the LP. Steinman is
a weird sort. He's written tons of songs in his time, but
claims he can't remember anything that's happened

Meat Loaf, a depraved but not deprived soul was

Those not at the Century, may by now be a iking,
just wiiat does Meat Loaf sound like? Vocals aside you
might call it the "E" Street Band on Broadway. Though
without a horn section, the musical space is still
completely filled with piano, synthesizer work, and two
guitars, as well as the traditional rhythm section
consisting of bass and drums. The female vocalist
featured in the Buffalo show was a local named Paula
Devita: a crowd teaser, with a big throaty voice
glistening with lavicious tonalities. Meat Loaf owes much
to his parents' gospel upbrining, and although he hates to
hear it, he sounds remarkably like Harry Chapin having
sex with Billy Joel.
The highlight of the concert, of course, occurred in
the middle sequence of "Paradise by the Dashboard
Lights". Meat Loaf and his delicious sidekick approach

'Semi-Tough' presents new outlook on athletes

there are few films, except,
perhaps, Paper Lion, which place

However there exists a void of
films which treat the subject of

both.
Enter Semi-Tough, a film that

Director Michael Ritchie, whose

After a brief silence, Bela Bartok's Miraculous Mandarin exploded
on stage with a sweeping violence, serving to obliterate my Bach-less
gloom.

The complete Miraculous Mandarin ballet was written in 1919,
premiering in Cologne seven years later to an unreceptive and
somewhat outraged audience. Bartok was to be ignored by any
following until after his impoverished death in 1945. Ironically, his
native Hungary was to ban the Miraculous Mandarin because of the
offensive nature of the ballet's plot. It was initially performed there
posthumously.

As the majestic tone of silver gong and royal brass sheds golden
of Enlightment, enter The High Sorcerer Of Music on a Sea of
Sounds and Cosmos' glory.
Sun Ra, the often unseen and ultimately versatile wizard whose
musical genius has influenced and furthered the Music with a potency
and longevity only to be matched by The Duke himself, unveils yet
another prime testament of unleashed melody's insight &amp; delight.
Regarding the Arkestra as his main instrument, Ra at last brings forth

What can say other than the music itself?

—Sun Ra

/

This is a long overdue moment for "commercial label, which, in
the narrow sense of the word it obviously (?) isn't. Anyone familiar
with Ra's swirling, sparkling storm magicks on piano know the
influence that McCoy Tyner has obviously picked up from him. Cecil
Taylor's luyah choir of the keys parallel Ra's growth, yet each display
their own sweet way (listen, for instance, to Cecil's Looking Ahead LP
on Contemporary, then listen
in a library, perhaps
to Walt
Dickerson's Impressions Of A Patch of Blue
with Ra on piano and
harpsichord
on MGM).
One has but to hear, say. The Magic City (Saturn, ABC) and
Heliocentric Worlds (ESP) then hear Chick Corea's Circle period (on
Blue Note, ECM, CBS-Sony, Oxford), Herbie Hancock's Mwandishi
period, and others (esp. John Coltrane and the AACM) to see the far
flung influences Sun Ra has spread in many areas: piano, orchestration,
electronic virtuousity, musically visual dramatics, etc. People already
acquanted with Sun Ra should know the area of his roots that speak so
eloquently here.
For the uninitiated, here is something for you to listen to. Ra's
music has always streched beautifully from the deepest traditions to
the farthest reaches, and it staggers to see several "jazz" experts react
to the Solo Piano LP with shocked brows of "Surprise! This is
listenable!" in contrast to those "outside" albums that have "produced
some of the strangest sounds in years", as one local critic surmised.
This kind of thinking is vague and misleading, and at the very least, a
gross oversimplification. Anyone taking time to hear the poetry and
oceanic chungwa pulse of 1973's Astro Black (Saturn, ABC) and the
sheer indigo effervescence of 1958's Jazz In Silhouette (Saturn, ABC)
will see fine examples of a man constantly expanding his foundation,
rather than perpetuate demolition (I should take this time to correct
another writer of the Buffalo Jazz Report who stated in a review of
Ra's Cosmos LP
Inner City
that the last previous album released
on a commercial label was Astro Black. Not so. If one does not
consider irresistable Space Is The Place, which was recorded for Blue
Thumb later in the same year as Astro Black, one must reckon with the
floating Pathways To Unknown Worlds, recorded and released at least a
year later for Saturn and ABC. MFH).
On Silhouette, for example, listen to "Ancient Aiethopia" where
Ra's piano play swirls seas that McCoy Tyner would not brim for
almost another decade. On "Blues At
Ra's sweetly
punctuating use of celeste is a brief yet poignant display of the
instrumental use of tonal colors many would examine and display more
seriously in the 60’s and beyond. A leveling decree is his
unaccompanied solo performanceof "Advice To Medics" from the
1956 Supersonic Sounds (Saturn, ABC). Here, his touch yields from
the electromic piano yes, in 1956, another pioneer mark the swing
and sweep of harp and celeste toned crystal pulsing with the growing
sensations of Life's first breaths.
(Someone should remind the ax-stokers that it isn't the tinkering
with toys
or minds
but the sincerity of one's self expressing thru
growing virtuosity that is the real value of entertainment. It takes more
that ourworld dramatics or costumes to be "with it". It takes the being
within whatever trappings to make them work, and at this, Ra and
Arkestra are the prime experts. They apply the rudiments of ancient
Africa, Afro-American (their own touch, of course), and other world
cultures along with Egyptian/Astral headdress and dance to emphasize
the human potency of the Music, and vice versa. They were the first in
this period of the Music to regularly utilize the costumed approach,
way before the many groups popularly abound today who generally
abuse this approach's surprise element, among others.
It is definately overdue for this campus to bring Ra and Arkestra

The Spring semester exhibitions et Gallery 219
got under way this week with the opening of an
exhibition by Mike Ross. The collection of
paintings, drawings and monoprints is open for
viewing during the day Monday through Friday.
Says Ross, a senior in the art department, "My

paintings basically concern themselves with color
relationships and a personal axprassion of an
environment. They are emotional images rather
than abstractions." The exhibit will run until

In
phantasmagoria came two of the Seventies' leading
proponents of American eclecticism and ethereality.
The year of importance was nineteen seventy-six.
Kansas and Starcastle entered the music
industry's spotlight in a furor of creativity and
controversy. For Kansas, it was a year of critical
acclaim surrounding their third album, Laftoverture.
For Starcastle, it was also a year of acclaim, as well
as critical denouncement. The public and the critics
seemed split over the groups debut album, Starcastle.
A frustrating cavalcade erf comparisons to the British
progressives Yes was soom strung about Starcastle's
collective necks by more than one critic.
It is now two years hence, a three album
evolution has consumed the time, along with
successful tours with the likes of Kansas and Utopia,
and now, finally, Starcastle can casually step beyond
all those "silly and absurd" comparisons to Yes.
"It's getting away from that," explains drummer
Stephen Tassler in regards to Yes parallels. "People
have compared the first two but with this album it's
going off in a different direction. It's not so
prevalent any more." Needless to say, the said
comparisons have been the obvious sore spot in
Starcastle's legacy, along with being the center of
group frustration and irritation. Do they consider
any of it fair?

to grow. Millions of fans enjoyed Grand Funk
Railroad despite the negative criticisms they were
handed. The real question is whether the group Yes
will continue to be mentioned in future Starcastie
reviews.

With the release of their third album, Citadel, it
shouldn't. Citadel (Epic), has taken on a different
direction from the more abstract Fountains of Light.
Singer Terry Luttrell, often related to Jon Anderson
in the past, has developed into a separate,
recognizable entity. The group itself also chooses to
incorporate a great deal of harmony, even more so
than recent Yes.

Citadel's Castle
Citadel arrives as a more melodic and
pop-oriented endeavor; it can be easily distinguished
from the past Starcastle albums. Starcastle's
structuring is more repetitive and predictible,
especially Citadel (containing eight lyric-oriented
songs all under seven minutes, quite removed from
lenghty Yes introspection); just because a group uses
abstract words, synthesizers and melodic bass lines
doesn't necessarily call for a complete and total
equivalence. At least Citadel doesn't.
However, there may be one valid comparison to
Yes; Starcastle’s album ddsign. Whereas Yes
consistently employed the work of Roger Dean,
Starcastle's cover art has been the wares of such
famed artists as Peter Lloyd for Fountains of Light
(Lloyd has also done work on Starship's Dragonfly
and Kansas' Point of No Return) and Hildebrandt
Everybody's everyone

Joni Mitchell, Don Juan's Reckless Daughter

(Asylum)
The message of Joni Mitchell becomes more clear than ever on this
album. Joni Mitchell is the queen of the avant garde. Don Juan's
Reckless Daughter, while not as problematic as Hissing of Summer
Lawns, nor having nothing as immediately identifiable as Hejira's
"Song for Sharon," illuminates one thought. Joni Mitchell is way out
in her own world, and nobody in the American musical mainstream
even comes close. She is her own woman, her own poet, and her own
musician. Not only are all of the above qualities enough to set apart
any talent, but she is also an acute observer of trends, and as such, was
a major sponsor of many jazz careers (first Tom Scott, as early as For
The Roses, and later with Weather Report, the Crusaders, and bassist
Jaco Pastorious). As the queen of the Woodstock generation, Mitchell
was the flaxen haired waif, giving up her personal life for her music,
and letting an entire generation of peasant shirts in on the secret of a
lover's cry. Now, there are those who can't pick up Reckless Daughter
and see that Mitchell has advanced more than any other of the late
sixties' singer-songwriter generation, giving a place in that venue for
real jazz and rock and roll, not just horn charts and kalimba in the
percussion section. (Those of you who read this column on a somewhar
regular basis will discover that we find it hard for many of that
generation's singer- songwriters to muster the stamina to keep their
careers flowing in a captivating manner.) With the integration of
Pastorius and now Airto Moreira, Mitchell maintains her giant poetic
stature and grows as a musician* On this album she is a positively
arresting as ever.
Roger McGuinn fans will recognize "Dreamland," an obscure
follup to "California" from the Blue collection. Also featured is the
studio version of "Jericho," introduced on the Mile of Aisles tour.
"Jericho," indeed, all of side one, has that jerky, uncertain syncopted
Mitchell free-tuned acoustic guitar that sets Mitchell apart from other
acoustic guitarists. She is learning the jazz rhythm, and not relying on
the accepted use of six-string acoustic. If you remember, she was
featured on Hejira playing electric blues on "Blue Motel Room". The
horizon just keeps getting wider for Mitchell. "And just as ancient Eve
succumbed /To reckles curiousity/ I take my sharpened fingernail/ Ans
slash the globe to see
(Paprika Plains")".
After sharpening here outlook on the outside world Hissing
and Hejira], Mitchell has returned for the most lyrical part on this
album to her doomed romanticism and her inability to allow a cease
fire to the roaring inhibitions within her. 'Talk To Me", "Don Juan's
Reckless Daughter," 'The Silky Veils of Ardor" are all exposes of that
uniquely emotive Mitchell treatment. And still within this context
Mitchell remains true to her search for varied and consummate
accompaniement. The joining of the two is what keeps Joni Mitchell
the top female artist (and there is really no other way to describe her)
recording today. This album reaffirms it.
For those Mitchell fans that cannot accept her inevitable
transition, I pity their loss. She's the same Joni Mitchell, only better.
More mature. The growing process lasts infinitely.

amounts to an air of muzak to certain tunes.

meaning) its appeal is inevitable.
The spoiler is keyboardist-arranger Michael

annoying to see him piss away his supposed classical

emulation of Elvin Jones' Latin swing proves
unsuccessful.

Of the stronger points of Works Volume II. Lake's
acoustic tongs, usually oommericaiiy successful
singles, are most consistent with the past. Yet these
songs that used to provide filler are more numerous
and dominant in the new album.
Scott Joplin's "Maple Leaf Rag" exhibits the
technical ability of Emerson, but it is again
dominated by saccharine orchestration. Marvin "I'm
not real" Hamlisch may have been impressed, but I
doubt if Joplin would have been.
Emerson, Lake and Palmer have been a dynamic
force in rock for much of the past decade. Besides
experimenting with this musical form, they have
with relative success interpreted the works of
Copland, Ginastera and Mussorgsky. Works Volume
II contradicts older material. Emerson, Lake and
Palmer do not seem to be into it. The music lacks
the vitality and energy with respect to the past. Let’s
hope ELP's February 1 concert offers more of their
enlightened past and less of this, by far their worst
album to date. Or else maybe we can help them find

flash-in-the-pan which has some excitement in its
theme, but "Gimme the Goods" and "1933,"
especially the latter, don't work from bland
conceptions.

choice for the follow-up single to "Hard Times,"
which deserved wider recognition than it received.
I am mildly satisified with this sequel to Silk

including Jeff Porcaro, Ray Parker and Jay Graydon,
that provides a solid wall of rhythm to keep
the
dance floors occupied. He is undoubtedly a
man of
yoat energy and abilities

hope he gets back to David Paich's

Alex Haley Tells the Story of hi* Search for Roots, (Warner Brothers)
A writer in the Black creatively speaking of Life's colors and how
he has experienced them all, from the improve! jshment of being
ignored by complacent media to the enrichment earned thru years (and
years) of struggle. If melodramatic to some ears, then ask; Who staged
the scenario? The art of the poet is not only in dramatic interpretation
but also in development of natural virtuousity. The marriage of the two
is the birth of the one, a beginning. For Alex Haley, the story of his
search is a long, uhyielding road where only the strong may stride.
From his series of campus lectures (which this campus will
experience, hopefully), Alex begins by unveiling his youth in Henning,
one rather simple and fluid by oomparision to the
Tennessee
liberated" North, where he, as a writer, found great problems as many
in this world of formulized greatness. In fact, his beginning as a writer
culminated for him the stature of a kind of Cyrano de Bergerac. Simply
writing to friends to relieve the long nights of Navy duty, his talents
grew as he wrote love letters by request for sailors to their girls. It is
interesting to note his tenacity at attaining from each sailor a concise
description of their girl (their tastes, habits, looks, etc.). Also apparent
is his application of literary simile (i.e„ the transition from physical to
physio-idelogical; Blonde hair to moonlight reflecting on the
shimmering waves). All this, in the end result, made for Alex his first
popularity, as well as a peaceful (If still energetic) service to one's

1

...

countrymen

"freer!

(and women).

What came next was eight years of rejection slips as Alex began
writing stories, trying to sell them to magazines. Leaving the Navy after
20 years of service, he went to New York's Greenwich Village where he
fought a hard struggle to -make it as a freelance writer. Finally, he
broke ground with the Reader's Digest, where he did biographical
sketches, then moved to Playboy, where he began the now-celebrated
Interview series, the first being an interview with Miles Davis (who
whispers boldly in ringing Music and commonly rare sense).
The third (world) interview was his first meeting with the
panther-wise Malcolm X, and this began a relationship that went from
Malcolm's hawk-eyed wariness of anyone from the general power
structure/ to his acceptance of Alex as a confidant near the end. The
product of this. The Autobiography of Malcolm X, remains today, for
those too young, unborn, or uncaring when he was alive, a testimony
to the legacy that Malcolm shared and cared to care about; Our own, a
future to build for the better. It was the first great exercise of Alex's
powers as a scribe, the ability to tell and enhance another's tale. Yet is
the tale that separate?
Think of the irony: Alex Haley, descendant of an African
kipnapped from the ways of his Islamic village, gained first-superlative
light from his transcribing the story of Malcolm X, a fellow descendant
of kidnapped Africans, who re-embraced and contemporally vitalized
the way of Islam. Two forces: One kinetic, one potential . .. storm
front gathering. Was the fate which guided Alex (after Malcolm's
death) to Washington, and later to the Library of Congress, an
accident? I think not Every artist, sooner or later, acknowledges Life's
spontaniety as well as the need for self-control. The story of Roots is
ultimately One Search. Do you have the courage to find it within
yourself?

It is the answer to this question that shall determine the full worth
of this writer and, perhaps, this world. Only you may say. Be careful
that you hear.
-Michael F. Hopkins

Amanda Lear, I Am A Photograph (Chrysalis)
After a while, it's possible to conceive and
fantasize upon certain female disco artists, solely on
the impulse that they as personal hies are sleazy
enough to fulfill your every innermost and sinful
desires. Amanda Lear has certainly been turning
heads for, a long time now; recently as the exclusive
model for Salvador Dali and as the close friend to
such jetsetters as David Bowie, George Harrison,
John Lennon, The Rolling Stones, Brigette Bardot,
Yves St. Laurent, and Warren Beatty. It was pure
Hollywood and it didn't matter what she said or did
so long as she was just there, so long as the audience
could undress her in their thoughts.
Her sculptured presence deemed droidic; stilt
possible to find her emotional and appealing
tush
sensuality was the crucial straw that lit her match.
As hostess on the Midnight Special featuring Dandy
Don K. and David Bowie, she virtually seduced the
audience with that especially-curved foreign ihtrigue
of hers. It was this kind of bang-bend interaction'
that has done so much for Ms. Lear's posture. It may
not have been overnight success, but Amanda Lear
certainly discovered early what proper and stylic
boudoire best
complemented
her mystical
propitions. In terms of love; it's bed with everything
kinky on the first night
a cigarette, sleep
a
shower, a cup of coffee, and then a cab. With
virtually no obligations save the guilt feelings of not
sharing intimacy when engulfed in the ritual of love
making it's a good deal all away around the board.
Amanda is the epitome of the female overly
qualified for the job and that should be of some
interest to those in search of quick, simulated
stimulation.
Here's the surprise: those that have graced
Amanda’s path are actually Curious about her new
album, entitled / Am A Photograph on Chrysalis.
Those that have heard the disc are more than
convinced of its worth. The merit of the LP
transcends the fact that it is still disco
a sterile,
inhuman pop form. Yet Amanda Lear understands
the predicament she has placed her audience in; none
who can actually claim they love the music, they stilt
absorb the metronomic background skittle, which
surfaces as the perfect scenario for the slave march
this artist has in mind.
Demonstrating tremendous versatility, Amanda
had adapted very well to this vinyl medium; her
songs auditioned loud and on a decent sound system
come across almost as if she were whispering deep
and treacherous thoughts into your ear, with that
sultry and sexy voice of hers. She's not looking for
equal rights, she's looking to hook. To be in a
photograph and in your subconscious for later
reconstruction in perfect pumping rhythm. Clearly,
this is the story of her life:

Jan Hammer Group, Melodies (Nemporer)
The sometimes thin barrier between certain
types of jazz and pop is one that often cannot be
perforated. In other words, it's difficult for a
reputable jazz artist to expand the vocal factor in his
group without losing a large part of his jazz
foi jwing. One exception that comes to mind is
George Benson, and even his transition to popular
music lost him a chunk of his former devotees.
A major reason for this is the decay in
instrumental innovation. The musician gives up a
certain amount of jazz to write and/or sing. Notice
the amount of those characteristic Benson guitar
riffs in his current hit album as compared to the
previous one. The Jan Hammer Group has run into a
snag of a similiar sort. The difference here, as
encountered on his newest disc, Melodies being that
the vocals and pop sound won't make it on their
own.
Hammer started running into problems on his
last record. Live with Jeff Beck. There were some
yeat moments, but they were always countered by
the struggling vocals. Beck's straining was always bad
enough, but with Tony Smith's (lead vocalist for
Hammer's group) somewhat less than sparkling
vr ice, the combination was unbearable.

And of course I am a little bit retouched

/ Am A Photograph
marks a new segment for
this career, and from the response to her music on
the European continent, she is proving that her
talents as a singer are as exciting as were the
predicts of her modeling days. English, German,
Italian, Austrian and Swedish charts have found four
of this singer's repitoire on their top ten. “Blood and
Honey,'’’ a savage dissection that differentiates
between love and lust, but choose the latter as a
prime hedonistic device has remained in the top ten
for eighteen weeks and has 300,000 copies. If you
care about units sold that's pretty damn good. HI
vouch for the stats, by saying this is a great LP.
Beep, beep, orgasm I
-Dimitri Papadopoulos

The Jan Hammer Group's last real album was
Oh,Yeah? Here they only took on
songs, giving
the band members (each an aspiring musician in his
own ritfu) more room to explore their instrumental
talents. The vocals were kept to a minimum, and jazz
was played to the max.
On the current disc, the group takes on eleven
shorter numbers. Smith's vocals (he also supplies the
drums) predominate, leaving little room for the high
energy jazz-rock I know this quartet is capable of. •
Hammer is a groat keyboardist, but sometimes
he overpowers. On "Honey 5379" (what a tide), the
music is good, if not for the Kraftwerkian keyboard.
Steve Kindler, a brilliant young violinist, has had to
subdue his talent for this disc. His flair, however, still
peeks through the syrupy cover. Tony Smith is a
good drummer, and he should stay that way. We
could all do without the vocalizing.
I really think Hammer outfit to switch his
metamorphosis into reverse. He's skating on thin k»
with this current transitional effort, and the group's
talents were put to much better use the way that
were.
Jan Hammer, settle for the jazz market. You
can't have your cake and eat it too. Oh, Yeah!

Chrysalis LP, comes as a bit of a surprise. Describe it In a

and co-produced the album with Roger Watson, it's
obvious that the style is hers and not what someone else

reservations.
On the album Rory plays ragtime piano, acoustic
guitar, and Fender Rhodes. She's helped out by Bill Payne,
Sam Clayton, and Ritchie Hayward of Little Feat, who can
get funky themselves at times.
"Help Me Baby," the opener, is a catchy tune whose
chorus you could disco-dance to (Did I say a dirty word?)
Its main flaw is the partially spoken vocal, a la Diana Ross,
which comes off as a trifle corny. "Intoxication" is a
soulful ballad, with a beautiful flute solo by "Buddy"
Colette. On "Sellout" you can hear traces of Bonnie Raitt
and Maria Muldaur in Rory's vocals. "I Got A Man" is
another soulful ballad, this time with a tasty sax solo from
Jim Horn. Do I sense a pattern here?
Rory must have been playing Natalie Cole's "Can We
Get Together
hence, "Don't Walk
Again" in her sleep one night
Out’s" striking resemblance. The words are even similar.
It's a good song, but Natalie's wins out in comparison.
"Feelings Cannot Lie" is sort of an up-tempo ballad
with a sax solo, thrown in to confuse. It's more on the
danceable side than slow, however, which is to its credit
the ballads don't have quite enough body to make them
worthwhile. Rory needs some heavier subject matter to
sing about, something besides her man. Undoubtedly he's
great, but...
The Rev. James Cleveland Chior in the background of
"boredom is Sadness" sounds very sweet, but Rory talks
her vocals here too, and with lines like "boredom is
sadness, sadness is rain", the songcan't be saved.
"Hard Workin' Woman" is a nifty little tune that ends
a mid-tempo boppy
the album. It's difficult to define
beat, with a hint of reggae, accented by Sam Clayton's
congas. Unfortunately Ms. Block's vocals are hard to
decipher here for once she's not singing about love, and
you can't tell what she has to say.
Altogether, Intoxication is a likeable, well-done
though somewhat unoriginal album. Rory does the best
she possibly can with the songs she writes. She's talented,
and she's soulful, but she's lacking direction and fire.
Maybe if her man leaves, it will bring out the guts in Rory
Block
it might be good for her music if she wasn't so
tntoxicated.

Can a thinker dare to think?
-Part 2 of "The Spoken Word

"

William Shatner, the versatile actor who brought his
Shakespearean
for
dramatic
peerless
tenacity
understatement, soliloquy, and fluid, evocatic delivery to
the C.S. Forester-type character of Star Trek'% Captain
Jamas Kirk, shows us the man, himself, daring us within
his own masque. With this album one must confront the
visionary lyricism of the troubadour, abound with the
analytic view of the critic and the creative "abandon" of
King Lear's fool... the sweep of the entertainment carries
boldly the visions of ageless insight, leaving you to wonder
and, as Langston Hughes surmised, anticipate a time of
wander (tho' not aimlessly or without laughter).
Shatner takes us into an odyssey of human origin,
beginning with the minds of human Swings first discovering
free thought. Feel, if you will, your eyes gazing suddenly
down, down upon your body far below on the sloping
plains, eyes gazing upward. Now the earthly winds' last
caress kisses as a hand in the stars beckons closeness. What
is in that hand? Will it hold, for us, a crushing fist or an up
dench? And does it reach only outwards? Shall we?

This fluid, exploratory approach prevails throughout
the entire set yet in fine variation, esp. his narration of "6
Ways to the Moon" from Cyrano de Bergerac which yields
the subtle smile of Shatner's satiric humour, easily one of
his finest qualities. There are many things to dte
specifically, but I strongly recommend his deliveries on the
origins of science fiction and his beautiful approach in
reading the H.G. Weils Martian description from War of the
Worlds. How will vw react to the unknown, and what if
we're behind the mask? Yet can we read ourselves into the
entire Universe, or is a more encompassing way to be
written by Universal Law? What is Order? Before you are
confused into Chaos, the album moves as a single flow,
gaining jts strength from each tributary that Shatner has
experienced throughout his life. No matter how many fine
droplets I hold out to you, the Music of Tha Spoken Word
(as it is Music, the phonetics of the visceral drum) must be
heard and reckoned with by each of you, by each of us.
(Oh, yes
there is good discussion on Star Trek, also.
How about that?)
It becomes even clearer that a new reading of edicts
are in order, to prevent the Chaos of fixed control. Shatner
presents but one of the vital pages, the text to be printed
thru our endeavouring lives, in the shadow and the light.

Rory Block, Intoxication (Chrysalis)
Rory Block has led a musical life right from the
beginning. Not only did daddy play country and monny
study
but Rory herself, at age ten, took to hanging
out at her father's Greenwich Village sandal shop and
making music with the likes of Bob Dylan, John Sebastion
and Maria Mutdaur, to name a few. Rory started dueling
with Pa at clubs and parties by the time she was thirteen.
Once grown, she made am album, "How to Play Blues
Guitar", a record on RCA and one for Blue Goose, which
received some critical acclaim.
With this in mind. Intoxication, Rory's debut

last in fine as usual?

Pay for abortions
To the Editor:

As I have previously stated my- views on
abortion in your editorial column before, I need not
do so again. However, 1 cannot help but to reply
to
some of the inane comments in your January 23
editorial (“Abortion: a Woman’s Choice”).
You obviously have misguided- ideas about the
Right to Life groups. Although an anti-abortionist, I
have never been associated with them, although 1
have seen their Slide shows. Seeing the slides of even
the youngest fetuses convinced me that the fetuses
are in fact human. I hardly think that the shows try

“sensationalism," they merely try to
show it like it is (something that pro-abortionists
dare not do, for obvious reasons).
Secondly, the group’s morals are not backward,
unless of course you’re referring to the fact that
they’ve been around for centuries (meaning that
there must be something to them, since they’ve
withstood the passage of time).
to provoke

And last of ail,.the uneducated are more subject
emotional rhetoric from PRO-abortionist groups
than from Right to Life. (Let me tell you, Right to
Life moved my intellect more than my senses.) It’s
the uneducated, the ignorant, and the self-centered
to

who don’t or won’t see that morality doe* not carry
double standards.
Speaking of education, it’s time that you
“college educated” people realize that, if it’s never
resolved, the uncertainty as to when life begins will
be one of countless such uncertainties. We must
sometimes decide such issues on what information
we do have, instead of using valuable time and
resources which could be better used elsewhere.
Perhaps the answer to the Medicaid debate is to
cut off funds for ALL pregnancies (whether
terminated or carried through). This will make
people who can’t afford pregnancies think twice
before risking them. After all, nobody is harmed
physically when pregnancies are discouraged, only
when they are terminated. Besides, why should I
have to pay for poor people’s loose sexual actions.
Medicaid is not a “great giveaway’’ when
concerned with those, such as the elderly, who can’t
help themselves. It is only a big giveaway when it
concerns people like the habitual abortionees who
obviously WON’T help themselves.
May 1 conclude by saying that I can tolerate
your opinion on the issues, but I cringe over your
irresponsible method of presenting such opinions.

life

To the Editor
The views exposed by the “WNY Coalition for
Freedom of Choice" mirrored the moral degeneracy
of the authors. They applaud the extermination of
babies presently being "achieved” at a clip of one
million deaths per year in the United States. They
warn that poor people’s babies (i.e., blacks, Puerto
Ricans, etc.) might live if the government ceases to

finance these abortions. They point out how much
cheaper, economically, it is to kill than to preserve

life.

If these rationalizations comfort the authors,
then Amen, but why have they failed to explain
their deprivation of the baby’s freedom of choice?
Lastly, a vote against Hugh Carey is a vote for life.

To the Editor

The article on abortion in the Friday (Jan. 20)
and Monday (Jan. 23) issues of The Spectrum shows
your usualy biased, narrow-minded hypocrisy.
I never cease to be amazed at the
double-standards
used
by
left-wing
the
pro-abortionists (if the media labels those who
oppose abortion as right-wing, obviously the
pro-abortionists are leftists):
(l)When the issue is abortion, they claim
“moral laws cannot be legislated.” When the issue is
rape, protection is sought from the law (as it should
be). When the issue is battered wives, they seek
protection from the law (as they should). These,
however, are moral issues and moral laws. Why can
moral laws be legislated in some areas and not
others?
(2) The pro-abortionists accuse the Right To
Life
Organization of “using scare tactics,
sensationalized presentations, emotional methods
and abrasive delivery” because they dare show slides
of what happens to a baby as a result of abortion.
Yet when the pro-abortionists print a photo in a
newspaper showing what happens to a woman from
a self-induced abortion; or when they, as Ms. Gray
does in her article, go to great lengths talking about
methos that have been used to perform illegal
abortions and the effects of those methods on the
mothers, they consider themselves justified. They are
not guilty of “emotional methods, scare tactics,
sensationalized presentations or abrasive delivery.”
Hypocrites!

Concerning the article by Ms. Gray, she too
gives a legthy review of historical methods and laws
which she fails to substantiate. She suppresses many
material studies (such as studies that have shown
more battered children were planned than unplanned
and polls that have shown evenly divided opinions)
to a point bordering on bigotry if 1iot outright
decepion.

While saying that many individuals and
professionals endorse the Coalition for Freedom of
Choice and naming nine groups, she conveniently
neglects to mention that many prominent individuals
and professionals are pro-life; not does she mention
even one group supporting the Right-to-Life cause
except one. To quote, “The [Right to Life)
Committee is nonsectarian, although many of its
supporters are Catholic.”
Does she, or anyone else, really think that
anyone is blind eoungh not to see through this

-

-

distortion?

She says in one place, “scientific evidence and
opinion can be interpreted many ways,” (I wonder if

she or anyone else believes that when scientific
evidence is offered as proof for other theories), and a
few paragraphs later, “Scientific data may one day

of these [when does life begin)

answer some
questions.”

Who’s kidding

whom? What and how much
would it take to be considered by
the pro-abortionists as proof that a fetus is a new
human life?
Which leads to the third double standard. There
is a trend in the courts to allow patients the right to
die by not maintaining their life support systems.
Many which agree with this view also are
pro-abortion. If there are no brain waves, the person
is regarded as dead. The machine keeps the heart
beating. The person has no heart beat or brain wave
dead. This necessarily implies-that a heartbeat and
brain waves are signs that there is life. A developing
baby’s heart beat has been detected as early as 24

An unnoticed event crept past this University this past week.
Approximately 500 people brought out the shovels, boots, dice, Bibles,
plastic smiles, joints and Honest Abe’s Handbook to Good American
Values, and filled out Resident Advisor (RA) applications. For those
who don’t live in the dorms, or never have, an RA is. the person in
charge of dispensing toilet paper and light bulbs to people on his or her
floor. Don’t misread me, some of my best friends are RAs and an RA is
an important person, but an RA application asks candidates to write
Opie-like answers to star spangled questions, that tend to become
absurd. Here is what an RA application should look like;
Q. Were you ever in the Boy Scouts (or Girl Scouts) and why?
A. I was in the Cub Scouts once, but quit when I protested the
Pinewood Derby races because I believed it was cruel to kill treps.
While in the Scouts, and earning my way to a Clawing Bear, I received
the Honesty Award for telling our leader that it was little Billy
Beanface who farted during the Pledge of Allegiance.
Q. Have you ever masturbated?
A. No.
Q. If you discovered that a resident of your flooor was using U
controlled substance (i.e., marijuana), what would you do?
A. I would immediately confiscate the drug to protect the
individual from further harm.
Q. Who were your childhood idols?
A. I never really had any famous heros, although I always
wanted to be like Davey of David and Goliath. You know, that Sunday
morning television show with the puppet kid and his dog.
Q. When you are ready for that Final Residence Hall will you go
to Heaven or you know where?
When I check into my final room, it will be the Big
A.
Dormitory in the Sky. All my life, 1 have kept a clean room, brushed
my teeth twice a day, and never said a naughty word. 1 have always
kept my ears clean and have never accepted candy from strangers. I
bring apples to my teachers and pray regularly. When I grow up, 1 want
to go into the Army and fight Communism.
Q. Why do you want to be an RA?
A.
I want to benefit mankind by helping people at this
University find contentment in their endeavors, better themselves
through self-assurance, and yakety-yak, yak yak.
Q. Do you enjoy filling out RA applications?
A. Yes, there is nothing I would rather do than answer five
absurd essay questions. I especially enjoy the 400 short answer
questions that will not be used in evaluating me. As a matter of fact, 1
subconsciously hope that I’m not chosen as an RA this year so that I
can have the opportunity to complete these exciting forms again next

days, brain waves at 43 days. Again they are caught
in a contradiction.
Finally, in one small paragraph, she mentions
one of the major issues in the abortion controversy
money. This is another double-standard used by
the pro-abortionists.
The pro-abortionists are concerned with the cost
of keeping and nourishing a new human life (in
terms of abortion vs. welfare costs). Yet, many of
—

the same advocates of abortion have no hesitation
about the extra expense when the issue is turned to
the criminal-right-to-life.
Speaking vehmently against the death penalty as
barbarous and inhuman, they think it perfectly
legitimate to spend the extrd millions of dollars
necessary to sustain the life of those who have been
convicted of violent crimes against society, while the
unborn, who have committed no crime other than
that of being conceived, are sacrificed to the god of
expediency upon the alter of convenience. They
would rather rid society of the burden of caring for
the “unviable.”
Ms. Gray states that the first anti-abortion laws
passed in this country were part of the humanitarian
reform; why is the continuation of laws prohibiting
abortion suddenly “unhumanitarian”? On the
contrary, continuation of those laws are in keeping
with the whole concept of human rights by
extending to protect those who are unable to fight
for themselves
the unborn.

Buffalo men’s swimming coach William Sanford
remarked that Monday’s meet was the Bulls’ best
performance ever against powerhouse Buffalo State.
The UB team, which presently holds a 3-1
record, lost to the Bengals 64-49 in a match in which
the Bulls were not eliminated until the final event.

The powerful Elmira Soaring Eagles handed the
UB hockey team its first New York State Collegiate
Hockey Association (NYSCHA) defeat of the season,
Tyesday evening, as they flew past the Bulls 5-1. The
loss, recorded at the Tonawanda Sports Center, now
gives Buffalo a 2-1 record in NYSCHA play. Over the
season, the Bulls’ mark stands at 6-8.
Buffalo, coming off a big overtime win over
Brock University of Ontario, fought Elmira to a 1-1
standstill after one period of play. But then the
Eagles, one of the top teams in the East with a 14-2
record, scored four straight goals to wipe out any
hopes of a UB victory. Three of the goals came
within a five-minute span in the third period.
The game’s first ten minutes featured wide-open
{day. Both squads had several end-to-end rushes but
neither club could generate an offensive threat due
to poor passing and disorganization.
Buffalo opened the scoring at 10:28 of the first
period. Defenseman Rich MacLean knocked in a
rebound of a slapshot by Tom Wilde that had been
blocked by Elmira netminder Glen Lombardi. Wilde
and linemate Stu Campbell were credited with assists
on the goal, MacLean’s fourth of the campaign.
Afterwards, the tempo of the contest began to
pick up as both teams began to hit and skate harder.
As a result, play was concentrated between the blue

their nine present swimmers. Perhaps this will help
the UB team finally “close the gap” next year, as
Sanford expects. “We swam well; we’re not supposed
to come that close to Buff State,” Sanford said.
In the meantime, Buffalo heads for tiny Hobart
College for a match at 2 p.m. tomorrow.

Later in the period, the Bulls had the man
advantage three times but could not score. On one
occasion Buffalo had a two-man edge for 28 seconds
in their opponents end but could not get a shot on
goal.

Elmira took advantage of Buffalo’s power play
problems and slipped one goal past the Bulls in the
second period and three more in the third.
Doug Bowen tallied first for the Eagles from out
in front of the net. Then, after the intermission,
Steve
Lemieux, John Griffiths, and Dan
Archambeault tallied to ice the game for Elmira.
Archambeault’s goal occurred while Elmira was
shorthanded. The other two were scored as the
Buffalo defense left the slot area clear and the Eagles
unchecked.
Too curvy

Buffalo did not manage to get a shot on goal
until six minutes had elapsed in the third period The
Bulls were outshot 18-5 for the period and 47-19 on
the game.

Freshman center Don Osbom semmingly scored
what would have been the Bulls’ second goal
with
just under one minute remaining in the contest. But,

&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;

feelings within some
faculty

“I don’t feel we should
underestimate the effect of the
split to three campuses,” Reichert
said. “I think that most of the
things that depress some groups
are not due to a lack of leadership
but
more to the physical
problems.”

Reichert felt the Committee
report was worded too strongly
and that in general, the University
environment is brightening.
Dean of the Colleges Irving
Spitzberg took a dissimiliar view.
In response to the Committee’s

opinion that “despair” pervades
the campus, that a lack of loyalty
haunts the University, that feuds
are “rampant” and that there is

no “commu'nity of scholarship”
here, he stated.
“I believe that those views
accurately
represent
the
perceptions of many faculty,
students and staff at important
parts of the University, though
they are not necessarily the views
one would get from a random
sampling across the University.”
Spitzberg felt that the relative
accuracy
of the Committee’s
findings is not as significant as the
realization that many groups
genuinely agree with the repent’s
dismal picture of the environment
here.

'The important thing is not

that we can do something to

those views in important sectors
of the University.”

The administrative system
here, Spitzberg felt, “is set very
much by the demands of law and
bureacracy. People don’t feel they
have control over it or that the

Granada complex purchased
by David Levy
City Editor

By a 15-0 vote the Common
Council of Buffalo approved the
sale of the Granada Theater.
The theater, which has been
closed since the first week of May
1976, was sold to a local attorney,
Lawrence Mattar. (Mattar bought
the theater along with the six
storefronts and Seven apartments
which make up the Granada
Complex for $85,000 from the
city of Buffalo.
Originally, the theater hwl
been a respectable movie house; It
was later sold to Michael Theaters
of Long Island, which owns a
chain of pornographic movie
houses throughout the state. After
a few years of poor business, the
Granada was forced to close,
leaving behind approximately
$100i060 in upaid city, state and
sewer taxes. As a result of the
building’s abandonment, the city
seized the property in lieu of the
unapid monies and recently put
the theater up for sale.

Wendy’s turned in a
bid of $140,000 for the complex,
including the theater. According
to the company’s estimates, an

additional $20,000 would have
been needed to demolish the
theater along with $140,000
needed
to
build the new
restaurant.
Mattar
made
a
somewhat more conservative bid
of $85,000 for the complex along
with a planned expenditure of
$110,000 for renovation.
The Common Council was
faced with the problem of
deciding between Wendy’s bid of
$140,000 or Mattar’s bid of
$85,000. Why then did the
Council vote to go with Mattar’s?

Senior citizens
According to Mattar there were
reasons why his bid was
accepted over Wendy’s. “First, the
bidding specifications issued by
the city’s real estate division
stipulated that the complex be
renovated and operated as a
theater.” Mattar promised to
renovate the theater both inside
and out. He also told city officials
that the Granada would show
children matinees, weekly movies,
art films, ballets, first and second
run movies as well as hold special
programs for senior citizens of the
two

area.

Mattar plans on spending a
“significant portion” of the
$110,000 in renovation money on
the exterior of the Granada
Complex. That would include a
complete face-lift for the building,
with a thorough cleaning and
paint job as priority items. Mattar

also said that $25,000 would go
towards renovating the inside of
the theater. As part of a general
refurbishing, new seats, rugs and
drapes will be purchased. The
seven apartments above the
complex will also be renovated.
Local sentiment
The
bidding specifications
mandated the sale of the Granada
Complex to a business that would
help the economy of the area.
Local
sentiment among the
residents and businessmen ran
strongly against Wendy’s fast food
restaurant. Although it Was
acknowledged
that
Wendy’s
would help to revive the area’s
anemic economy, businessmen
felt the problems presented by it’s
construction at that location
outweighed the advantages.
Local
proprietors were
outraged at the thought of
another fast food “joint” and the
resultant increased competition
for other area restaurants. There
are now 16 restaurants or fast
food places between the Granada
and the University.
One of the local businessmen,
Hugh Miller who owns Herzog’s
Drug Store, is happy that the city
has decided to accept Mattar’s bid
over Wendy’s. “If they go ahead
with it, I think it’s pretty good,”
Miller said. Although he doesn’t
foresee any appreciable effect on
the area’s economy, Miller thinks
that the new theater will help the

Another

reason

for

the

opposition to Wendy’s was the

feared traffic problems once the

restaurant opened for business.
Wendy’s

expected around 500
cars a day in and out of it’s
parking lot. The volume of cars
according to the businessmen
would have posed a hazard not
only to normal pedestrian traffic
but also to the many school
children who go home for hinch
everyday in the area.
Mattar himself will not be

operating the Granada. He has
leased the operation to Victor
Mole, an experienced theater
operator whose record has already
been established. Mole, working
for Mattar, took the Riveria
Theater in North Tonawanda
from a bankruptcy to financial
success.
Mattar expects the new

to open
sometime in the spring. The
dosing of the deal between Mattar
and the city will take place as

In a national competition, the
Library (HSL) has
been awarded the Second year
Medical Library Resources Project
Grant of $34,474 by the National
Library of Medicine to continue
its Health Media Resources Center

S-l was called by civil liberties organizations as a
“legislative chamber of horrors,” because it was a
complete reversal from the recommendations of the
1971 Brown Commission findings.
The bill would have stiffened penalties for most
crimes, limited or abolished certain legal defenses
and endangered civil liberties. The language of the
bill was ambiguous, permitting key criminal
judgements to be reserved for judicial discretion
S-l was drafted after years of congressional
haggling. S-l grew out of two Nixon-Mitchell
nurtured bills, Senate bill (SB) 1400 sponsored by
Mitchell and the Department of Justice; and SB-1

�Rape is a growing concern
by Lori Braunstein
Staff Writer

Workshop in March. “Rape is being reported more

Various campus groups including Women’s
Studies College (WSC) and University Police are
initiating programs aimed at rape prevention which
include the reinstatement of the University Rape
Task Force and a workshop in self-defense.
The Buffalo Police Department received 440
complaints of sexual assault in 1977, 268 of these
were crimes of rape and attempted rape. There is no
rape squad in the Buffalo Police Department, but
rather a group of policewomen who handle sexual
crimes. “There were 170 arrests this past year in
connection with rape and sexual assault,” according
to Buffalo Police Department Detective Lois
lr!
Harriman. '
When a rape is reported, Harriman said, the
victim is taken to the hospital immediately for a
pelvic examination. “A statement is then taken, and
if she has seen enough of the attacker, a composite is
drawn,” she reported. “The next steptis to obtain an
arrest warrant.”
University Police Officer Peggy Chipetta said,
“Rape is not as serious a problem on campus as it is
off-campus. Only one on-campus rape has been
reported in the last couple of months.” Two men
have been indicted in that case according to
Chipeita. “There have been five rapes reported in the
past year,” said Chipetta. “We’re lucky that rape
isn’t a larger problem because of all the isolated
places on campus, especially at the Amherst
Campus.” Chipetta claimed that one rape was
reported at the Amherst Campus last year and an
arrest has been made in connection with that case.
Chipetta initiated the Rape Prevention Program
at this University and will give lectures upon request.
She is currently working on a program with Group
Legal Services (GLS) and will be part of a Life

Weekly meetings

;

Counseling program
is for rape victims

Rape victims will begin meeting once a week to talk about and
deal with their emotional problems in a new program sponsored by the
University Counseling Service.
The six-week program is staffed by three counselors who have had
experience working with women and problems posed by rape. Two of
the counselors are Counseling Service staff members and one is a
graduate student intern.
One of the counselors, Amy Pitt, stated, “Rape is a growing
concern, especially since the rape of a staff member in the Union.” She

is unsure of the number of rapes that have occurred on campus, but
suggested that many go unreported. Pitt added, “This new organization
is not an action group, like rape prevention. Instead, it is an outlet for
victims’ feelings, coming about because of requests from women at this
University who felt there was a need to be able to share their feelings
after the horror of rape.” She remarked that this type of service is new
because it reaches out only to the victim.

Anger, rage or cry
“The purpose of this group,” said Assistant Director Bea Roth, “is
to allow women to get out their feelings, not to repeat the story of the
rape. After this terrible experience, women often feel that they are all
alone. This program will show them that they are not. They will be
able to express anger, rage or just sit and cry if that’s where they’re at.”
added, “Some women feel shameful or guilty that they did
something to deserve what has happened to them. She hopes that such
feelings will be overcome after participation in these new sessions. “It
is possible that the program will help victims deal with present and
future relationships with men,” agreed both of the counselors. Pitt
said, “We’ve been dealing with the problem of rape for a long time. It’s
nothing new to us.”
Women who have been raped but are reluctant to participate in a
group situation are urged to call the University Counseling Service at
831-3717 for individual counseling. The new group, starting on Friday,
January 27, will meet in 78S Harriman.

conviction.
Associate Director of GLS Amy Tobol will
conduct a workshop through WSC tomorrow at the
Amherst Campus. Self-defense and information
about rape prevention will be discussed. Tobol, who
was trained by Chipetta in rape prevention, instructs
women to follow their instincts and intuition to
avoid rape or being killed. “1 say this because every
incident is different,” she said. “This is why specific
advice can’t be given,”

Rape Task Force
Tobol is currently working to reinstate this
University’s Rape Task Force. The Task Force will
initially take a Universitywide survey concerning
rape and then submit recommendations to the

administration, “We will also be working on an
escort service to walk women around campus at
night,” Tobol said, “University Police will be
allowing us to use their facilities to screen and
interview applicants for the program. We will also try
to bring about more workshops and possibly a taxi

service.”
Tobol is also teaching a course on Tuesday
nights for WSC on the political aspects of rape.

SA supports SASU
health fee boycott

presents

The Buffalo Comedy Workshop

The Student Association (SA) will be distributing pledge cards
this week and next to gather support for its boycott of the
manadatory student health fee, organized by the Student
Association of the State University (SASU) last semester.
“The response has been great so far,” said SASU representative
Alan Clifford. “We collected about 80 signatures over a period of
one hour today (Monday).”
The cards, which affirm that the signer will not pay the S8.50
fee, will be attached to second semester tuition bills. SASU is asking
that students send these “refusal-to-pay” cards to Albany.
Many students are worried about the implications of refusing
to pay the fee, according to Clifford. “We need people to realize
that nothing will happen to them if they refuse to pay. We realize
that $8.50 won’t make or break anyone. We’re fighting this thing
on principal alone,” he added.
Clifford assured that there would be no penalties by refusing to
pay the fee. “The fee can be paid at any time without penalty. If
we find by April 1 that the Legislature won’t repeal it, SA will place
an advertisement in The Spectrum advising those who signed pledge
cards to pay the fee and clear their accounts.”
The pledge card drive will continue through next week with a
booth in Squire Hall. Clifford prefers, however, that students drop
off their cards at SASU offices in Talbert Hall.

THIS IS NOT THE SAME SHOW THAT
WAS GIVEN BY THE BUFFALO COMEDY
WORKSHOP AT THE TRALFAMADORE CAFE.

NOTE:

University housing
could get worse
Incoming freshman and transfer students may not receive
University housing next fall. According to Vice President for Housing
and Auxiliary Services Len Snyder, “Enrollment is expected to increase
this fall and there is a chance that students will be denied space.”.
Housing will attempt to maintain strict adherence to key housing
dates, according to Director of Housing Madison Boyce. “Our major
problem has been with students who have come to us as late as August
asking for space in the dorms,” Boyce explained. “It is these people
who will now be denied space.” Housing has no plans for renting
apartments outside the University nor does the construction priority
list call for the building of additional dorms. For students who are
denied space in the dorms, “Housing will refer them to the Off-Campus
Housing office,” Boyce commented.
Tripled doubles
Last fall. Housing was faced with the unfortunate situation of
placing three people in rooms designed to accommodate two people.
To prevent the recurrence of this situation, Housing will overbook a
smaller percentage of students requesting dorm space. Boyce stated,
“We will allow a larger cushion this year in order to protect ourselves.”

Housing is currently negotiating with the Office of Facilities
Planning and other University departments for available space next
semester. According to Snyder “as it appears now
Spaulding Quad will
not be available for dormitory housing next semester. It's a major issue
every time a room designed for residential use serves some other
purpose.”
All knotted up
When questioned about other alternatives Housing could take to
prevent overcrowding, Boyce said, “Our hands are tied.” Housing is not
able to increase the non-refundable deposit because state law only
permits a $100 deposit, a limit that Housing now maintains.
The shifting of campuses and the general transition of the
University have directly contributed to many of Housing's present
troubles. Snyder said. “We are now in a difficult state. With the phasing
out of the Ridge Lea campus, space is becoming more valuable.
Housing enrollment increased by five percent last semester and has
been increasing for the past five years, Snyder stated that
convenience,
lack of off-campus housing, and reasonably priced dorm space have
contributed to the increase in the number of students seeking dorm
rooms. Boyce was especially pleased that “This year we have the
highest percent of returning students ever.” Housing is
constantly
working to upgrade its services. Presently. Housing is analyzing a survey
of various aspects of student life in the dorms, and hopes
to use this
report to continue its ongoing search for bptter student
services.

That the front page of Monday's edition of 77m Spectrum
contained one article seriously questioning the leadership qualities of
members of the Ketter administration and another casting serious
doubt on the effectiveness of the Student Association under Dennis
Delia, beyond being merely coincidental, is very significant.
Mathematical Sciences Review Committee reported in part:
The unsettled conditions (stemming specifically from budget cuts
which discouraged faculty and halts in construction perpetuating the
split in all facets of University life) were compounded by appointing
administrative officers who themselves were insecure, buffeted by the
current budget uncertainties, lacking in «Asdom and self-Confidence,
and generally devoid of the leadership qualities that are essential in a
thriving intellectual environment.”
..

The same words ring true for this year's student government
leadership, according to former SA Vice President Andy Lalonde. As
the administrative leadership of the University is allegedly unable to
deal properly with budget cuts and disillusioned faculty, so are SA
,officials unable to deal effectively with the University administration.
When the Committee advised that "overall planning should be
undertaken on a campus-wide basis," it implied that administrative
officials do not have the power to look beyond the immediate
necessities inherent in the process of running a university.
Nor apparently are SA officials capable of seeing "beyond the
process" of insuring that the bureaucracy that distributes student
mandatory fee monies each year is functional, or at least minimally
capable of answering questions posed by the student press.

One caM in point is the current controversy over the termination
of the four course load, upon recommendation of the Faculty-Senate
Committee. Regardless of its position for or against retention of the
four course toad, and in spite of Dennis Delia's public statements in its
favor, SA never launched a campaign of any sort to inform students of
its impending doom or of its relevance to the style and substance of
their education. Mabye SA officials had trouble convincing themselves
of its relevance or maybe they didn't care. Mabye they couldn't figure
how to properly delegate the responsibility to a specific committee.

is unfortunate that on Mr. Rosen’s visit to

writing a column on failure, this would certainly be a
good place to start. I hope that in the future Mr.

maybe we should use his columns to build something

editor-in-chief,

Brett Kline, who was quoted in the Courier Express
(Jan. 21, 78) as saying that he
finds the policy
• change abhorent and believes that “the military
represents all the wrong things in this country.”
As The Spectrum doesn’t need additional
advertising revenue to survive, one can only suppose
that the editorial board believes that publishing
military ads is a service to the University
community. With this I disagree.
Preying on boredom, insecurity, self-doubt,
machismo, confusion and joblessness, the military
ads that I have seen demonstrate contempt for their
,
audience..

Find yourself.” Join the ‘"action’ Army.
“Be someone.” Go Navy.
“Get a job” with the Air Force.
If you are man enough and proud enough, try
the Marines.
This Pentagon pap provides no service) Besides
being stupid, it’s uninformative and misleading;
it’s
Madison Avenue at its worst: hype designed to con
the naive and the unwary.
In conclusion, I would like to say that if people
are going to voluntarily join the military, then 1
think it would be preferable for them to make their
decisions based on fact, not fantasy. As far as The
Spectrum's editorial board is concerned, I’m afraid
they arc guilty of aiding a bad cause.
How quickly
we forget Vietnam and the kind of senseless violence
and oppression the U.S. military is capable of. I urge
the editorial board to reconsider.

�FEEDBACK

Sexist t-shirt contest

3t,'5r

To the Editor.

This letter was evoked by the advertisement for

a wet t-shirt contest in Friday’s (1/20) issue of The
Spectrum.

Wet t-shirt contests, as are" beauty pageants by
their very nature, are sexist. That is, men judge a
woman’s attractiveness, thereby making appearances
all-important for women, and rendering us mere
objects to be regarded and evaluated by men.
To add to the offensive nature already inherent
competitions, wet t-shirt contests, in
particular, have not only sexual overtones, but also
involve an act of violence towards women. That is,
the act of thrusting a bucket of water at the

in

these

contestant.

The connection of sex and violence is not new
or exclusive to these contests, but instead, pervades
our culture. The best example is the high frequency

of rape
If women are ever to be free, sex and violence
must be separated. We must end the attitude that the
latter is justified by the former. Furthermore,
women must no longer be taught that their only
value is physical, specifically sexual.
It is bad enough that there are wet t-shirt
contests anywhere, but to have one at a University
pub is horrifying. 1 hope that its sponsors, upon
realizing its implications, cancel it at once. If not,
they will be fostering antiquated sexist philosophies
and practices, and offending, indeed harming, the
women of this University, and all women.
Finally, knowing that this contest will be
detrimental to women should be enough cause for its
cancellation. If not, perhaps a boycott of the Pub by
women and sympathetic men will be a more
convincing demonstration of our outrage.

The January 20 issue of The Spectrum reported
that SA Executive Vice President Andy Lalonde
resigned from his post. Lalonde indicated that he
had resigned as a result of SA President Dennis

Vice President indicated that the members of the SA

student body.

which would have rendered student
initiated referendums virtually impossible to be put
on the ballot. He was afriad of another
“Leverendum.” He was afraid of allowing students
to legislate for themselves. President Deha’s isolation
from student opinion can also be seen in the
constant rejection by the student senate of new
legislation introduced by Delia. Consultation with
other student leaders would have shown to Delia
how little support for most of his bills there was.
Consulting with other students outside of the
Executive Committee might also have enabled Delia
to change his bills, making them more acceptable to

everyone connected with SA has known all along,
that the Delia administration might be a lot of things
but
that it is certainly not a government
representative of the students or responsive to thenneeds. Dennis Delia has tried to decrease the average
student’s voice in his/her own student government.
Last semester, for example, Delia went so far in his
quest to remove himself from the effects of student
opinion
that he proposed a constitutional

Laid Back Johnny
To the Editor.

In a University filled with 25,000 people from
all areas of the country and the world, it is all but
too easy to get lost in the shuffle of things. For
some, schoolbooks may be the only solace in a world
of loneliness. Others may flee to a world of
mind-boggling hallucinogens, the various ways of
escaping the realities and pressures of a student’s life
are too numerous and varied to mention.
The shattering and frightening experience of
living away from home for the first time, as well as
the encompassing loneliness previously discussed,
have been for some, transformed by the mellowness
and inner calm of Johnny Reid. Within his own
grasp, Johnny has made believers out of many
persons residing in Ellicott. Whether it’s playing his

electric oboe or signing autographs, laid back Johnny
Reid has all of his believers reaching out to those
who are lonely. His philosophies of mellowness and
peace have soothed the ruffled feathers of many,
allowing them to reach out to those who never
before experienced.
So if you’re in need of someone (or something)
to believe in who is tangible and always there when
you need him, check out our wordly philosophies in
this one Johnny Reid. We truly believe that “mellow
has never been so sweet.”

injunction, or a work stoppage at
a factory producing something to
fulfQl any government contract.

On the periphery

Three professors, one from
Harvard, one from Yale, and one
from U.C.L.A. published an
analysis of the bill. One part of
the report deals with crimes which
are considered “iltchoate,^
including attempt, conspiracy,
complicity,
and
solicitation.
Criminal penalties are based not
on the actual conduct which
constitutes the crime, but on that
prior to the occqrance of the
crime, or on conduct by persons
on the periphery who did not
themselves actually participate in
the crime. ■
This section can be used to
prosecute many, individuals who
participate
in group political
activity, by making everyone
associated with the group liable
for the conduct of a few
members. This section also
renders a person guilty of an
offense if “he intentionally
engages in conduct that, in fact,
constitutes a substantial step
toward the commission of the
Crime.”
This would mean, for example,
that a person who planned with
others to picket a courthouse and
then walked in its direction would
be guilty of an offense, though he
or she neither reached the
courthouse nor picketed there,
This section also states that a
mere expression of agreement to
commit an offense constitutes a
a
for
crime;
conversation,
example,
would furnish the
necessary proof to-prosecute.
The section entitled “Liability
of an Accomplice” establishes a
general offense of complicity,
This makes a person “criminally
liable for an offense based upon
the conduct of another person if
he knowingly aids or abets the
commission of the offense by the
other person.” Thus, a person
who urges a young man to avoid
the draft by emigrating to Canada
could be prosecuted.

Severe morale problem

One highly placed faculty
member who did not wish to be
identified concurred universally
with the Committee’s somber
view of the academic atmosphere
I,
at SUNY at Buffalo.
‘There is no question that
there are no leadership qualities,”
he said. ‘There really isn’t a
of management and
system
they’ve never settled on any
guiding principles.”
The faculty member pointed to
a severe morale problem in the
faculty caused by “the lack of

think you can fault the faculty
groups,” he observed. ‘They are
only reacting to the environment
the administration created.”
He felt Bunn and Provost for
Natural Sciences and Mathematics
Paul Reitan should resign because
of the Committee report. “The
people who created the situation
should not be the ones to
implement the solution,” he said.
Leadership problems, he felt,
were caused by a heavy reliance
on bureaucratic decision making
processes. “They [administrators]
cannot make judgements by
themselves,”
he commented.
‘They tend to rely on the process
of consultation. There doesn’t
seem to be anyone who is going to
make the higher decisions. That
just tpras people off.”
The University provides few

that the spirit of selflessness has

“Administrators can be very

Belying credentials
Dean' of the Law School
Thomas Headrick spoke similarly.
He felt the atmosphere at the Law
School was optimistic and pointed
to real attempts at campus-wide
planning. “I would certainly
quarrel with the Committee’s
qualifications tor make those
judgements about University-wide
things,” Headrick said. “I see
them as belying whatever their

Spectrum Staff Writer

The
second half of the
ntramural
basketball
season
began last Sunday with 96 teams
again competing for 16 play-off
i

spots.

The basketball intramurals are
conducted under the supervision
of
the Assistant
Intramural
Director Steve Allen. A major
portion of the organizational and
technical work is carried through
by three UB students, Mike Betz,
Mike Groh and Billy Steinkohl.
This year participation in the
basketball intramurals is high.
Over
750
students actively
participate,
with
additional
students who serve as referees,
scorekeepers and timekeepers.
Five games are played in the
fall semester and five in the
spring. The team in each league,
with the best won-loss record at
the end of each five game season,
is entitled to a playoff spot. This
year, the playoffs are scheduled to
begin in early March.

StaebeU sits down
with the coaches again to trim the
list to essential items. “So far
we’ve always been right on the
borderline,” he said.
Intramurals are handled in the
same way, but the request is made
through Director of Intramurals
and Recreation Bill Monkarsh.
One problem, according to
StaebeU, is that the- money that

Therefore, equipment not bought

Track team starts
season on wrongfoot

Committee proudly presents
jazz

The UB track team opened its 1978 indoor season last Saturday
with a loss to Fredonia 91Vi - 16H. Fredonia, one of the best Division
III track teams in the state, swept every event except the long jump.
“In terms of the score we got demolished,” said Coach Walter Gantz.
But in each event we were right there. We made those guys work. They
knew they were in a race. We couldn’t say the same last year.”
Many UB runners finished just off the pace. In the two-mile race,
Fredonia’s Rich Nearly led the latter half of the race with Buffalo's
Mike Fischer right on his shoulder in second. In the last fifth of a mile,
Tim Zintel kicked by both men to pull out a win for Fredonia. Zinte)
finished in 9:26.8 with Fischer 1.2 seconds behind at 9 28. Zindel set a
Fredonia School record.

of

Two-mile team
In the 880, it was Milt Moore first across for Fredonia in 2:02.
Just .6 seconds behind Moore were UB sprinters Ken Dole and Gene
Schwal who finished with the exact same time. Dole and Sehwall were
also members of a strong two-mile relay, along with Ernest Myers and
Lanny Doan. Gantz thinks that the Bulls will have a strong two-mile
relay this
The only victorious Bull was Jeff Regan, a recent transfer from
Rochester. Regan won the long jump with a mark of 19’11V4”. In the
triple jump Regan went 36’ and took thijd place.
The track team this year should have a better record then last
year’s, but right now the sprinters are not in top shape and there are
not enough of them. Lack of manpower has hurt this team in the past
and continues to do so. On Saturdays, UB only had one weight man
and no high jumpers.' Because of this Gantz is still recruiting athletes
for the team. Interested athletes can contact him at 636-2141.

&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;

"In Buffalo, the normal university environment is not perserved
is little sense of loyalty to the Universtiy or of belonging to a
community of scholarship: there is little pride in one's work, there is
no spirit of selflessness Instead, there is wide dissatisfaction with
current conditions: feuds are rampant between academic units and
various personalities, and a sense of despair pervades the campus since
no improvement is foreseen in the risible future.

The battle continues. It has been five years since the Supreme
Court legalized abortion. Heated controversy still surrounds the issue
Although much of the debate is centered around moral concerns, there
is a growing feeling that abortion is primarily a woman’s health issue
The questions of when life begins and when a fetus becomes a person,
while central to the philosophies of many pro- and anti-abortion
groups, may never be resolved with any certainty Scientific eveidence
and opinion can be interpreted in many ways
as yet, no concrete
answers exist.
The legality of abortion and the legislation accompanying it are
major issues facing the public today. Although the 1973 Supreme
Court decision held abortion as a private matter and a woman’s right,
subsequent judicial rulings have restricted and qualified the availability
of abortion, particularly in the case of public funding Medicaid
Medicaid is a 50-50 proposition, divided between state and federal
governments. Federal and state funds combine to reimburse physicians
and clinics for the cost of abortions performed on underprivileged
women using Medicaid for health care. In June 1977, the Supreme
Courst ruled that states were not required to pay for non-therapeutic,
elective abortions under the Medicaid law the decision to continue or
cut off funding was to be left up to state legislatures To this date, 34
states have elected to cut off funds.

Big issue
On the national level, the Hyde Amendment to a Labor-Health
Education and Welfare Appropriations Bill went into effect on
December 9, 1977. The amendment prohibited the use of federal
monies for Medicaid abortions except when a woman’s life was in
danger, when she would incur severe and long-lasting physical health
damage, as determined by two
physicians, or for victims of rape
or incest when reported promptly
The language of the Hyde Bill has

in
introduction. For five months, the
House and Senate battled over
such
words as “severe” and
“long-lasting,” and the exact
definition of “promptly” when
reporting rape and incest. The
Hyde
present
Amendment
replaces an early rider which
prohibited the federal funding of
all abortions, except where the

c/&gt;

woman’s life was endangered.
This is the “Big Issue” in the current controversy over abortion
rights. Until August, 1977 (the enactment of the first Hyde
Amendment), three out of ten legal abortions performed in this
country were Medicaid financed. The impact of a funding ban on
women is enormous. The Department of Health, Education, and
Welfare estimates that without Medicaid reimbursement of funds, at
least 250 women will die each year from illegal or self-induced
abortions and more than 25,000 will suffer complications from these
unsafe procedures, severe enough to require hospitalization. In
addition, statistics show that unwanted children have a higher
probability of being battered, neglected, and abused.
Local struggle
The cost of Medicaid financed abortions is S40 and $50 million
per year. Without this funding, the annual cost to the taxpayers would
be between $450 and $565 million for medical care and public aid in
the first year after birth approximately $2,200 per woman.
In New York State, funds are still being provided for Medicaid
abortions. This year, however, two bills have been introduced into the
state legislature which would prohibit continued reimbursement. Both
pfn- and anti-abortion groups are conducting intensive campaigns,
lobbies, and appeals to the public to gain support for their causes.
The two main forces involved in the local struggle are the Western
New York Coalition for Freedom of Choice and the Erie County Right
to Life Committee.
The Western New York Coalition for Freedom of Choice is located
at 210 Franklin Street in downtown Buffalo. It is funded totally by
contributions from the community and operates with a 100 percent
volunteer staff. The Coalition was started three years ago, stemming
from a growing concern for insuring the legality of the right of
abortion. It is affiliated with a larger, national organization
the
National Abortion Rights Action League (NARAL).

Pluralistic society

The Coalition for Freedom of Choice is endorsed by many
individuals and professionals in the community, as well as nine
organizations. The Western New York chapters of the following groups
are supporters of the Coalition: American Civil Liberties Union, the
Humanist Society, the National Lawyers Guild, the Religious Coalition
fpr Freedom of Choice, NOW, the Department of Episcopal Women,
the Task Force on Women of the Presbytery, the National Association
of Social Workers, and the National Counsel of Jewish Women.

philosophy behind the Freedom of Choice movement, saying

Should be continued
Despite the fact that in previous years the handbook had appeared
late in the semester, Lalonde felt its publication should be continued.
"This year,’’ he said, “Ron Washington had everything all ready to go
he just ran into complications," Washington said (hat these
complications cropped up after he had already collected each
department’s listing and had the copy proofread “Memorandums
announcing the book were sent out on September 23, and everything
was ready for a November 23 publication," he said, “but the University
would not foot the bill this year Washington added that plans to
print the book in the Reporter were scrapped because it was too late 10
get every department’s listings as he was required to do by University
Publications.
According to Washington, the copy of each department’s course
offerings were returned when SA found out that a handbook would
not be published. A spokesperson at University Press confirmed that
the material was returned via Campus Mail However, the Colleges did
not receive their material and were forced to prepare a whole new
listing, according to Assistant Dean, Carol Petro. “It cost us $500 to
print the offerings in The Spectrum." she commented “To say the
least, the whole affair was very costly.”
Both Washington and Lalonde called for the Ketter Administration
to publish the handbook next year. The matter is currently being
reviewed by the Public Affairs Office.

Assistant Director of Public Affairs, Bob Hnglehardt, explained
ihat money was not given to print the book because its usefulness was
always undermined by its late appearances "A couple of years ago.
University Publications picked up the cost but we found that not every
department listed their course offerings, ' he saidv Englehardl added
that material was usually handed in late and the book did not reach
students’ hands until "six weeks alter registration had begun "
Director of Public Information, lim DeSantis, said that last vear
the handbook was printed but not paid for. "We picked up the lab." he
commented, ‘‘but the President’s Office said it would not pay lor it
again.’’ DeSantis added, “It is difficult to come up with S5-O.000 on

Abortion: a woman’s choice
Five years ago, the Supreme Court of the United States ruled that
a woman has the right to end her pregnancy in abortion This landmark
decision ended years of illegal and expensive abortions and paved the
way for Medicaid
funding divided equally between state and federal
to finance women unable to pay for an abortion with

private funds.
Abortion should be a woman's choice, irrespective of the politics
that rule its legality and financing. That is to say. abortion should be
first and foremost a moral and health issue, and the freedom of choice
involved in making the decision to have an abortion must stem from
the will of the individual.
Clearly, "freedom of choice" should be a universal axiom, not one

politicians.

Fears over the costs of federally funded abortions are misguided
by age-old apprehensions about someone else getting something for
nothing. In fact, the cost of Medicaid financed abortions is $40 to $50
million a year. Without this funding, the annual cost to taxpayers
would be between $450 and $560 million for medical aid and public
aid in the first year after birth.
Yet there is danger in relying on an abortion as an after-the-fact
birth control method, although an abortion should never be denied to a
woman seeking one. Abortions are over three times as expensive as the
birth control methods most widely used by women: the dlaphram, the
tntra-Uterine Device (IUD) and the Pill (or the one used by men, the
condom). No woman who has had an abortion is eager to have another
one, unless she must.
The federal government should spend more time and money to
disseminate more information on the avialability of birth control
methods for men and women, or should at least delegate the
responsibility and money to pay for it to local organizations. As more
people learn about birth control options and utilize them, fewer
women will need abortions.
But women must have the choice, and it must be paid for

Let me first deny all these absurd rumors that
real reason
they
decided to build
an
amphitheater at the Amherst Campus and provide
the place a “focal point" is that they read this
column
The
religiously
rumors are simply
unfounded
The real truth is that they read it every once in a
while
The page one story about the Mathematical
Sciences Review Committee report should not just
be glanced at It gives a very sobering account of the
academic atmosphere here. Conversations I’ve had
with faculty
members generally support
the
committee’s opinion that "a sense of despair" haunts
this University’s faculty It’s a side of this school
that students rarely see Administrators, of course,
royally deny that their kingdom lies in any worse
rum than anyone else’s. And just as surely, their
heads would be the ones to roll if the dismal image
of the University sketched by the report is accurate
What will probably happen
regardless of how
much kerosene The Spectrum pours on the issue
is
that the report will be dismissed as insignificant and
things will go back to normal. Bureaucracy has a
very efficient method for putting out its own fires
and leaving very few ashes It usually is referred to as
the fecal matter of the Bull.
It just makes me wonder how much we’re all
missing, in terms of academics, by attending this
particular University. Think about it
1 do not mean that life as a student here can 't be
enjoyable, it certainly can be. But read what this
committee of very well respected academians says
about the general state of things here and very
serious questions should be raised in your mind.
Phrases like “little sense of loyalty” and “rampant
fueds” among departments really scare me. Are the
skies here really that ominous? I certainly don’t
know, but if there is a storm brewing, I’m not gonna
be telling you to head for the beach.
I happened to visit (gulp) Long Island over the
vacation and was promptly treated to an ice storm
which knocked out power all over the place People

their
battery-powered blow driers out of the attic and life
went on as normal.

Well, anyway. I’ve been kicking around the idea
of writing a column on the subject of failure Of
course, saying something successful about tailun is
not going to be easy. It would also have to be
written from the outside looking in. so I don’t know
In case you might not know, it’s getting near to
Student Association election time Which means that
a lot of hacks start floating around this
office
borrowing cups ot sugar and things Little do they
know that we’re giving them Sweer n law instead
Many of them got very upset when 1 announced,
sort of half-heartedly, that I was
giving to publish a
ten-best and worst looking hacks
lift “I think it s a
horrible idea," one highly rankfel official saivl
“Which list am 1 on'” The truth
there is no
ten-best looking hack list,
there is no
“ten-best dressed nudists” list. So, you can stop

The University is doing its pari to ease the
energy crisis. Not on'e commuter would dare drive
his car to school and lose it in those lots The school
is selling the cars its lots confiscate and using the
money to purchase snow making
machines so it can
extend the thieving operation into the summer
months In all seriousness, I think the
school is doing
an absolutely deplorable job with the parking lots
here and it s about time somebody did nothing
about it
1 was disappointed with the turn out at our staff
meeting last Thursday. Those that came seemed
enthusiastic enough but we genuinely need more
people willing to engage in
the most fascinating,
rewarding experience of their life times It’s so
difficult to get good help these days, you know

I would like to take this opportunity to
commend the Blue Bird Bus service, especially the

would like to give special recognition to
the driver of Bus No, 252 on Tuesday, the 17th He
made it from Mam Street to Lllicott in only 40 or 50
minutes and even had time to stop for coffee or

minutes that we sat in Diefendorf Loop was greatly

Middle East talks positive
that will propel us to take an active part in
Israel's future Hnthusiasm and concern for Israel
should not only accompany those periods tortured
by war, but also these less painful times
Hie Zionist ideal is as real and relevant today as
it was ten, thirty, or one hundred years ago Jewish
apathy on this campus in the matter of Israel and
Zionism is a serious matter of concern. In our
historic role as the defenders of human freedom and
of justice, we should not forget our own struggle for
freedom and our own needs for justice
vigor

President Sadat’s willingness at long last to
engage in face to face talks with the State of Israel is
not an end, but a new beginning It does not mark
the end of a period as much as it signifies the
possible conclusion of that same period
Nevertheless, many people appear to be
languishing in the knowledge that something positive
may be happening in the Middle hast Among those
of us who are Zionists, the hope for peace, perhaps a
little more real today than several months ago, ought
to energize us. We should find in ourselves a new

The Reporter story portrays the student radicals
of the past as unthinking, belligerent conformists
“Delia" we are told “is at opposite poles from the
student leaders of a few years ago who were then
fashionably hostile to University administrators,
legislators, and anyone else who didn’t wear flowers
in
waist-length hair .” As one of those student
leaders, I can assure you that I did not wear flowers
in my hair and was not hostile to all (or even most)
people who wore their hair short Hair, of course,
was not the issue Reforming the elisits elements of
the University, fighting racism, ending U S military
interventionism
these were the issues They were
legitimate, serious issues when student activists
raised them in the sixties, and, they remain central
to all of us who are concerned with making Amenta
a democratic society and a force for world peace.

only be effective when they “play ball” with campus
administrators. Actually, history - both on the local
and national levels
belies Mr. Delia’s anti-radical
conclusion
Traditionally, student militancy has been a key
element (perhaps the most effective of all) in
bringing progressive
change to the
American
university. In the nineteenth century, student
protests, often violent in nature, helped secularize
the university by compelling college officials to
terminate compulsory religious services Student
militants also fought against the persecution of
non conformist faculty members, helped bring about
the end of both rote-learning and in loco parentis,
and established the liberating elective course system
More recent student radical activity further
lessened the chains of academic traditionalism,

American colleges and universities. In Buffalo, this
innovation is represented by our American, Black,

concerning the matter, and has decided to keep a four credit tor four
contact hour policy, according to Chairman Om P. Bahl “There are

some courses in the department that offer three credits for three
contact hours although most of our courses offer four credits for four
hours of study,” Bahl said. “We want to maintain our four-four policy,
and 1 don’t think DUE will object, but if there are any scheduling
difficulties, we may have to go to the three credit-three hour policy
We offer a large number of courses and we would like students to take
as many as possible. The three credit system would force students to
take more courses to fulfill their requirements but it is better to keep
the policy flexible,” Bahl affirmed.
According to Associate Professor of Communications, Charles
Petrie, the Department of Communications has not yet conducted an
official review. “Most of our upper-level courses offer four credits for
four contact hours. The ruling will mainly affect the 100 level courses
which give four credits for three hours,” he said.
Chairman of the Psychology Department, Kenneth J. Levy, said
that the department has conducted an informal review and is inclined
to adopt the three credit-three hour policy. “Most of our courses give
four credits for three hours of class time. The faculty is generally in
favor of the three-three policy because it gives the student an
opportunity for a broader education,” Levy said.
Levy further stated that course substance has not changed since
the time when the department offered three credits for courses “With
the adoption of the four credit system, there has been an inflation of
credit so that students have been able to take fewer courses to meet
department requirements,” he claimed.
Levy predicted that changes would be made within the department
with the adoption of the three credit policy. “Requirements are now
phrased in the number of courses rather than the number of credit
hours which will probably remain untouched,” Levy said. The number

In order to provide cleared lots for daytime users of the Ellicott
Complex, a new winter parking and snow removal system has been
initiated by the University Housing Office and Amherst Central
Maintenance
The major component of the policy, which is designed to pose the
least inconvenience to Ellicott residents, concerns overnight parking
Between the hours of 12 a m and 8 a m the areas marked as o p
(overnight parking) will be the only facilities available for parking. The
areas marked with an “X" should be void of vehicles for these hours
Director of Housing Madison Boyce stated, “There lias never before
been a restrictive parking policy.”
The aieas marked with an “X” will be cleared of snow between
midnight and 8 a m Snow removal will take place in the o p. lots on “a
pre-arranged basis” according to Assistant Vice President for Housing
and Auxiliary Enterprises Ten Snyder Snyder explained that Amherst
Central Maintenance will inform the University Housing Office of their
intention to clear the o p lots the day proceeding the night of snow
removal. Housing will ‘then attempt TtP relay

The relationship of the spectator to the filmic text has been the subject of recent
critical-theoretical inquiry. The latter mainly investigates one large cultural figure of
fiction film production since approximately 1913, but
filmmaking practice
applications to other kinds and periods of production are possible. This work is
concerned with the inscription of the subject into the text of film through semiotic
indicators of the subiect's presence, a phenomenon that defines classical painting and
literature as well as film. Accordingly, the system of classical representation in
painting will be examined as well as the tradition of literary analysis of the spectator
in the text.

The Center for Policy Studies has several internship opportunities available to
graduate students in any department on campus A student may receive academic credits

without governmental intervention or coercion.” She stressed the fact
many supporters of Freedom of
that they are not “pro-abortion"
Choice would not have abortions themselves she said, however, they do
not deny that right to someone else. “We live in a pluralistic society,”
Levine remarked, “we should not be legislating one morality or
-

religious viewpoint.”

Pregnancy epidemic
The major interests of the Coalition include insuring the right of a
women to a medically safe, legal abortion with reimbursement for
Medicaid funds, the development and promotion of accurate birth
control and sex education information, and the prevention of
serilization abuses. Levine placed emphasis on the issue of teenage
preghancy, terming it an “epidemic.” More than one million young
women between the ages of 15 and 19 became pregnant each year, she
said. One-third of all legal abortions in this country are performed on
teenagers and one-third of these are financed through Medicaid.
According to Levine, a state ban on Medicaid funds would be

“disastrous.”
main activity of the Coalition for Freedom of Choice is
informing the public of threats to abortion rights. An
education
intricate system of letter writing, telegram, and phone campaigns is
used, to alert supporters and inform government officials. A “Crisis
Alert” list is part of this activity, consisting of names of individuals
who have pledged their support in writing letters when critical
situations arise. Lobbying is also a function of this organization in
Buffalo, Albany and Washington. The coalition offers a Speakers
Bureau as well as public access to its library, which contains material
on birth control, teenage sexuality, and the psychology of women
A primary problem encountered by the Coalition is a false
awareness of the status of the right of abortion. Many people have
become complacent after the Supreme Court decision of 1973,
thinking the battle was won. According to Levine, the Freedom of
a
Choice movement is supported by a majority of the population
1976 Knight-Ridder Newspaper Survey conducted in 21 American
cities showed that 81 percent of the adults interviewed believed the
decision of abortion should be between a woman and her physician and
that the government should have nothing to do with it.
The Right to Life Movement, although highly vocal and publicly
active, actually expresses a minority opinion, Levine expressed. She
stated that the “opposition force” is well-organized and better financed
than her group, enabling a strong impression to be put forth. Levine
also remarked that the single-mindedness of the Right to Life
Committee, coupled with scare tactics and abrasive delivery, often
influences legislators to heed this “vocal minority.” Explicit abortion
slides and name calling, as well as sensationalized presentations were
cited as examples of the Right to Lifers’ emotional methods.

Kunz told The Spectrum that
the report’s criticism of the
administration is “typical of these

"It’s always the easiest thing to
say that there is a lack of

Morality
The Erie County Right to Life Committee is part of the national
Right to Life Movement. This organization was formed in 1967 on the
basis of scientific opinion expressed at the First International problem at
all in the faculty it’s a
Conference on Abortion. According to the Movement, a majority of result of budget cuts rather than
scientists concluded that human life begins at conception and thus the any
lack
of leadership,” he
fetus should be considered a person.
The Erie County Committee is endorsed by private contributions
solicited from the community and is 100 percent volunteer. Sally
Sincock, acting chairperson of the 141st Assembly District, stressed
that the Committee is non-sectarian, although many of its supporters
are Catholic.
The philosophy behind the Right to Life Movement is more
complex than most people believe. Sincock stated that the Committee
is concerned with “respect for all life” and is becmong involved with
issues affecting the handicapped and elderly, particularly euthanasia.
The morality of abortion, however, is the basic concern of the
life
organization today. Right to Lifers believe that abortion is killing
begins at concerption and the fetus should be treated with the “utmost
regard and dignity.” Women who have abortions are victims, said
Sincock. They do not comprehend the seriousness of their actions.
However, physicians who perform abortions are “murderers” according
to the movement because they are fully aware of the consequences of
the act.
Sincock said the primary function of the Right to Life Committee
informing the public and government of the “realities”
is education
of abortion. She explained the format of the Right to Life
presentations, placing emphasis on the use of slides. “You can talk
abortion till you’re blue in the face,” she said, “but they never face
what abortion really is.” The slides are needed to show the public the
rapid development of the human fetus
without the visual effect, the
point is weakened, she felt.

Moment of conception
On the legislative level, the Erie County Committee is concerned
with the New York State laws on Medicaid funding. The two bills
introduced into the legislature are strongly supported by the
organization; much lobbying, direct contact and pressure is being
waged with legislators on both state and local levels.
Nationally, the Right to Life Committee endorses the proposed
Human Life Amendment, which would insure due process and equal
protection from “the moment of conception,” and forbid the
government from depriving “any human being of life on account of
illness, age, or incapacity.”
A majority of the population is represented by the Right to Life
Committee, said Sin cock. She stated that those who support free
choice are not dealing with the facts of abortion and are not facing the
issue. She believes that explicitly presenting the Committee’s view of
abortion will “swing the middle of the road over.”
The arguments over abortion may never be resolved. Both forces
involved in the debate stand firm on their veiws and are hesitant to
relinquish or change an opinion. Scientific data may one day answer
some of these questions until that time, however, the only certainties
that exist are within the minds of people.
The Coalition for Freedom of Choice may be reached at 833-1771.
Anyone interested in this organization is requested to call for
information. The Erie County Right to Life Committee is also available
for information at 837-3439.

&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;

Even longer waitfor IDs
by John H. Reiss
Managing Editor

Like a malignant disease, this year’s ID cards
have infected the student body again and will not be
made available to students here until late February
:
or early March.
It had been announced by the ID Card
Committee on November 30 that the cards would be
ready for distribution to students between January
,.
11 and 16.
The new delay has been blamed on the “Albany
Process” by Assistant Director of Admissions and
REcords (A&amp;R) Dick Canale. He explained that the
time required to obtain the newly designed cards
which will include signature and birthdate was
stretched out beyond expectations. The cards will
not.W delivered here for at least another month.
Materials needed to validate the old cards have
only recently been ordered and cards cannot be
validated for at least another week and a half. Until
then, students wishing to Withdraw materials from
the University libraries will be asked to present both
theirpresent ID cards and their schedule cards. New
students will receive September’s version of the ID
cards in a few weeks and be given the new cards at
the same time as everyone else.

received the contract promised to supply the cards
within 30 days/
Director of A&amp;R Richard Dremuk claimed that
once the procedure for setting up bids was
underway, “Everything went like clockwork.” He
said that there were absolutely no problems and that
“things went very smoothly.”

Very frustrating
Committee members were upset with the delay,
especially since they had been promised that the
cards would be delivered no later than mid-January.
Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia,
who has been immersed in the ID controversies all
year, was particularly annoyed by the postponement
saying, “I was shocked. I’m completely dismayed.
The first time you have a problem with the cards
you’re enraged. I don’t even know how I’m supposed
to feel now. It’s just inconceivable that it could
happen again.”
Director of Orientation Joe Krakowiak, who
co-chaired the Committee, said he was disappointed
with the new delay and lamented the further
inconvenience (hat students would face. “As a
member of the Committee,” Krakowiak said, “I’m
surprised that such misinformation was forthcoming,
and at the great difference in arrival time. It’s very
frustrating.
Canale explained that the reason he was able to
virtually assure the Committee in November that the
cards would be available in January was because he
had no knowledge of the State law mandating that
the contract go up for open bidding. However, some
Committee members claim they remember the law
being discussed at the November 30 meeting and feel
the problem lies with AAR. Claimed Delia, “Of
course they knew about it. They are fully

The third reason for the change in status of abortion was the
Victorian concept that sex should be for reproduction only; that sex
for pleasure is bad and any pregnancy resulting from pleasurable sex is
a punishment to be endured. Pnom this philosophy, it was hoped that
fear of punishment and pregnancy would reinforce these ideas of
morality. This Puritan attitude has had far reaching effects in our
society
not only in feelings toward abortion, but in anything
remotely connected with sex. "Hie Comstock Laws of the late

The Record Co-op, threatened with permanently dosed doors over the
years, is back in the news again, this time being issued a deadline to file
financial records.

New woes arise
for Record Coop

In order to continue selling records, The student Record Coop was
advised to produce some of its own.
Internal student problems and external pressures led Director of
Student Activities James Gruber to issue a Friday deadline for the
Record Coop to file financial records with his office. As of yesterday,
the financial statements were supposed to have been completed and
submitted to the Administration, according to Coop President Lenny
Rollins.
As originally established by University guidelines regulating the
Coop while its lawsuit with Carl Cavage is in litigation, the Coop is
required to submit financial statements each month reporting on sales
and inventory levels. Since April of last year, the Coop has filed
irregularly and infrequently.
Gruber was also induced to establish a deadline because a tape
distributor, Audiohaven, wrote a letter to University President Robert
Ketter claiming the Coop has failed to meet financial obligations, and
asking Ketter to take action. Assistant Vice President for Student
Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti replied that the Record Coop is a
student-run organization controlled by a private student corporation,
Sub Board I Inc., and that it is legally responsible for its own financial

matters.
No treasurer

to

The Coop was unable to gather the proper information for filing
financial statements because it hasn’t had a Treasurer since last April,

said, “Disagreements between the Coop and myself led to delaying the
process of choosing a new Coop Treasurer."
Rollins explained that the $1300 in outstanding bills from
Audiohaven “is actually approximately $400 because $900 has been
paid.” He further stated, “He (Audiohaven) hasn’t shown us invoices
for the remaining money he says we owe him.”
Both Gruber and Lorenzetti emphasized that the Coop was
allowed to continue its policy of nof submitting the required records
because they “understand the troubles the organization was having.”
Rollins explained that the Coop’s books were always accurate, but it
didn’t have the personnel to file reports for the Administration. He
added, “The letter mandating that the Coop file before this Friday had
no bearing on the Coop’s completing and submitting its report. It was
going to get done anyway. The endpoint of this procedure just so
happens to be occurring at the same time that Dr. Gruber wrote the
letter.”
Lorenzetti said, “Perhaps we were too lenient, but hopefully the
problem will resolve itself.” Rollins remarked, “They were trying to

The School of Architecture and Environmental Design at this
University (SAED) has won a contract with the City of Buffalo to
create a development plan for a downtown Main Street theatre district
The $16,000 contract was approved by the Buffalo Urban
Renewal Agency last Friday. Dean Harold Cohen 6f the School expects
to sign it by sometime next week
Dean Cohen envisions the district as “a place that’s alive” 18 hours
day
with housing “for young people and the young at hearty” shops,
a
restaurants, bookstores, craft kiosks, studios, all revolving around two
existing theatres there, the Shea’s Buffalo, and the Studio Arena.
Mayor Janies D. Griffin had supported the idea of a theatre district
during the Mayoral campaign last fall.
The study team, headed by Frank Palen, an attorney working in
the School of Architecture and Environmental Design, and staffed by
students of the school, will be responsible for: assessing the feasibilities
of renovation and conversion of existing buildings; creating a plan for
attracting both private and government financing; co-ordinating plans
with the Niagara Frontier Transportation Authority v .the Convention
Center, adjoining neighborhoods and other interested parties; setting
up a not-for-profit community development corporation which will
carry the project through once the study i$ over.
Dean Cohen stressed the need for attracting private investors to
the district. “State and federal subsidies are not going to keep the city
‘

alive,,” he said
While the idea is for the not-for-profit corporation, the Theatre
District Association Inc., to manage the redevelopment process, Dean
Cohen asserted that “We (SAED) are going to be around for a long
time,” to offer long-range assistance to the project.
Another key to the theatre district concept is the new NFTA
light-rail rapid transit line slated to link the Main Street campus with
downtown Buffalo. Current plans call for a “metro” station between
the corner of Main and Tupper and the Shea’s Buffalo in the heart of
the district. Construction of the transit line is expected to begin this
year.

break-ms occurred in previous years. Director of University Police Lee

University Police have disclosed that the Main Street Campus was
victimized by 24 larcenies, perpetrated by two to three groups, from
November 28 to January 5. The 24 crimes represented the highest
number of such offenses in a 38-day period in recent University
history, according to University Policy Investigators Chester Menkiena
and Jarry Denny
Hardest hit were Hayes Hall, where seven, of the crimes were
committed, and Abbott Library, which was struck four times In all,
ten buildings fell prey to the lawbreakers
All the larcenies, according to Menkiena, involved the removal ot
purses and wallets. “The perpetrators waited for people to walk away
from their desks." he said, "and then just walked in and took the
money.” Menkiena estimated that at least S2000 in cash and 50 credit
cards had been taken

-

Four composites
Menkiena said that the thieves have been using the stolen .redd
the
cards and running up enormous bills. He claimed that one
robbers bought a S500 color TV with a charge card the day the card
was stolen One of the victims, he stated, had mOre than SI000 of
merchandise bought on his stolen card Victims are liable for only the
first S50 of purchases on the stolen cards The credit cards companies
are responsible for the remainder of the charges.
Menkiena said the University Police are working with the Buffalo
Police on the matter and that composites of four suspects ha\c been
made He stated that two suspects who may have a possible connection
&gt;!

with the crimes are currently under arrest, and the one of the suspects
is a student at the University of Buffalo.
Menkiena explained that the crime problem is not restricted to this
University, but has also affected Buffalo state College, Canisius College
and Meyer Memorial Hospital He added that since University Police
have been working in plainslothes on the case, no such crimes have
been committed on this campus since January 5

Up Women's Studies

Klpl

By virtue of Vice President of Academic Affairs Ronald Bunn's
decision to reinstate a faculty line, Women's Studies College can now
proceed with business as usual, in its case the progressive business
which has made it one of the oldest and most recognized academic
units for women and against sexism in the country
It can now be assumed that Bunn, too, recognized that a minimum
of three full-time faculty members is definitely needed to at least
permit the College to function as it may, which has been very

successfully. Ironic was that its potential demise should have been
achievenment of two of its faculty
members, both of whom won Rockefeller Awards and one of whom
addition, received a visiting professorship at the Sorbonne in Paris

By finding the money to reinstate the line, Bunn and Arts and
Letters Provost George Levine are implicitly recognizing and
supporting the vatue of Women's Studies to the entire University

in some cases, undergraduates.

That members of the College could collect 1500 names on a
petition and publicize its crisis so quickly during the last couple of
weeks of the Fall semester is a credit to their own cohesiveness; of this
Bunn must have been well aware. This does not imply that Bunn made
his decision under any pressure, but it does state he knew whatever
decision he did make would be announced to the public very quickly

"victory" is but temporary, for Bunn's December decision

to reinstate the line and fund it through Arts and Letters and American

Studies stands until the end of

next Fall semester, when assuredly the
crisis will arise again. Women's Studies College should be allocated
enough funds to retain three full time faculty members on a full time

basis, not on year by year test runs.
When a college is forced to consider the validity of its very being
and of its academic mechanism, it cannot devote the time and energy
necessary to insure the excellence of the content of its academic bill of

goods, being too caught up in the process. Women's Studies College has
well demonstrated its validity and should not be forced to do so again.

A new wove
So, WIRC, faced with numerous financial problems over the years,
is ready to broadcast again, this time from Room 102 in Goodyear
Hall. There is room for WIRC on this campus; WBFO, albeit an

excellent radio station and a member of the National Public Radio
network, does not often concern itself with campus events, and least of
all with campus politics.

WIRC could become a forum for good music of any and all types
as well as a means of organizing students at this University, and another
means of discovering what is happening here besides reading it in The

In addition. Sub Board might look into the possibility of providing
additional funding to the station to make the installation of the phone
wires on the Amherst Campus feasible. Not only would the station
benefit, but so would Sub Board if it used the facilities properly. Not
that this wouldn't occur without a bit of politicking between Sub
Board and IRC, but. .

fresh from their coronation as the
new royal family of Southern
Rock. Though they were handed
the throne after the unfortunate
abdication of Lynyrd Skynyrd,
the six member troupe from
Spartanburg,
South
Carolina
finally broke as a headliner group
with the release of their sixth

were the only two songs I

with a rousing ovation. By this

Realistic role models for
women still lacking in films

for acting awards
by Gerald Starntky
Arts Editor

It is difficult to evaluate the past year in movies without
mentioning the loss during the year of some of the industry's greatest
performers. With the deaths of Joan Crawford, Groucho Marx and Bing
Crosby, it became increasingly apparent during 1977 that the old guard
in Hollywood
the people whose comic and dramatic talents so often
helped us laugh and cry at otir own frail humanity
was giving way to
the new. When Charlie Chaplin died on Christmas day, it brought to
mind once again the sad realization that a golden age in film history
had Indeed come to a tarnished end.
-

-

New values
No one needed to be told this, of course, especially considering
that all of the above performers
due to sickness of advancing age
were inactive in films at the time of their deaths. And one needed
merely to go to the theaters to see that the change had dawned. Alan
Trustman, lawyer turned screenwriter, points out in his article "Who
Killed Hollywood?" in this month's Atlantic Monthly that the
government killed the film industry. Whether you believe it was
murdered, or it was just aging, one thing was apparent: there were, and
are, less movies being made. "Where there used to be 300 to 400
movies a year," Trustman writes, "there are now 150 to 200 movies a

year

What is happening as a result is that more and more people are
going to the same movies. And the movies they are going to, as their
popularity increases, are becoming more than just big movies: they are
becoming events. They are becoming more than cultural experiences:
they are becoming culture itself. The irony is not lost on the fact that
the passing of so many of the old stars should come in the same year
that these events should come fully into their own.
Interesting subjects

What I find most curious about this transition from the old to the
new Hollywood movie is that the old stars are being replaced not with
new ones, at least not with human ones. Take a look at the
largest-grossing movies of the past few years. What have people gone to
see in them? They have gone to see the shark inlaws, the devil jn The
Exorcist, the robots in Star Wars, the spaceships in Close Encounters
Of The Third Kind, and the ape in Dino DeLaurentis' remake of King
Kong. Human beings, it seems, are no longer the most interesting
subject matter for a film.
The $2 million arm
Which is not surprising. As Americans troup to increasingly fewer
films, they demand greater satisfaction from each. My impression is
that people thesp day’s are going to the movies less to see good acting
than they are tolje ovej-whelmed by technical razzle-dazzle. They want
to see what $2 million worth of mechanical ape looks like, or how
many UFOs $18 million can buy. And as the number of films on the
market shrinks, the number of pre-release articles about the films

Paying for it

It doesn't stop there. Always, we are told the costs. $18 million
for Close Encounters. Over $20 million for King Kong. It has gotten to
the point where studios are flaunting the amounts they spend on their
films, and many people are no doubt attracted to the overblown
financial and technical extravagance. Through a reversal of the old
saying which Hollywood has fortunately been able to pull off, people
are paying for what they get.
There is, according to Mr. Trustman, one man to thank for this
unfortunate situation. Frank Vabtans, at one time the head of
Paramount Studios and now a producer, is the man who brought us

choices appear more than others does not indicate a deviation in
quality, but rather shows New Wave regulated by the indicator of
media pressure.
Jazz showed itself being on an incredible upswing, especially in the
college audience. Both Anthony Braxton and Flora Purim, Downbeat

We lost Elvis in 77, but rock and roll began once again leaning

(for Rahsaan Roland Kirk: 1936-1977. The Master of Lyricism
Rap, this man always spoke with the
and Keeper of the Black
laugh of serious song
an element many refuse to see in what
some call "jazz," or authoritatively attempt to deny. The man did not
play with many horns at once
he played them. The guts and the
grandeur of his play spoke of serious beauty and things to be done
within ourselves. In this spirit, we present this tone poem, written in
the improvisational artistry that this man inspired with the aquatic
flavor of his deep soul.
If this is a freak, then tremble. We're all living elegies.

The rain falls from immutable eyes.
This day, the eyes are not of stone. The sky flashes turbulent
storm, yet new thunder, a respectful silence punctuated only by the
pulse ol the interchanging rain. A silence speaking of loss
or
rather changinng times, for in Creation is always growth and renewal of
the vital ingredients. This is the legacy that keeps mortals alive to smile
or, at
and strive in the face of unyielding strain and mortal pain
least our conception. Yet it is the human,jhe love here, who in dealing
with the times adds a priceless statement of strength and splendor
which, thru all efforts, shall bring us all together.
Keep the humour of the Master's eye, a pupil who sees more thru
the pragmatic poetry of cohesive optimism than either the fixed smile
or forced frown. It is essence, focused via expression, that brings light.
Slogans slated bring no sight, and anyway, what is might? Consider,
please, the plight of those who deny'lnsight to working eyes, whose
ears prefer lies.

The lightening laughs many blessings,
as we are suddenly awakened to the emminence of exploding tears.
Bursting fingers in the wind.
A hand that happily denies refusal or rigid wriggles,
the strut of street songs unafraid. The Seeker, audaciously eloquent
shifting shores
There, a man stood
commanding the storm's respect and other elements
of more than style. He spoke with the resonance of the sage pygmy
and the resilience of the oracle’s word.
From him sang the Muse of inner cities
unseen by those who maintain broken glass
in the continuance of breaking lives
He knew, and revealed the mystery that is,
in truth, no secret
but to ourselves.

Rainbow pops from the mist in a symphony of streams suddenly
swirling into one river. A pronouncement of the one tongue. Grounds
bread to the gentle touch of the mighty rap. Towers rise and fall, and
some even hear the call.
The rain's breath lingers.

Jackson Browne, Running On Empty (Asylum)
Dear Jackson,
All these years I've been a raving maniac; almost all my Wonder
years (those most important growing years) and I have never written
you a letter. I can't imagine how that notion never made it out of my
head and onto paper. Well, I can put it off no longer.
I overlooked the stony, melancholy tour with Orleans. You
shouldn't have made The Pretender if you were that sorrowful, but I
could still draw the emotion out of some of the songs, even if 'The
Or ly Child" was pretty much a reworked "For A Dancer". But
something happened to Bruce Springsteen with Bom To Run that
seems to have happened to you. Running On Empty makes a caricature
of your persona. Face it, my dear, everyone knows what your cara
bonita looks like, and no "newborn pup" would need to Sniff very long
to discover who you are. Your last two albums have made you a little
too easily described. We are taught to pity you. I liked it better when
we could identify. I thought you were Everyman. Well, maybe you

really are a pretender.
I think maybe some of it Has to do with this Mr. Landau. We know
that Born To Run has its moments, but it's a hell of a long way from
Asbury Park. The Pretender is nice, but what's that? The verse change
in "These Days", I think, was the last note of optimism in your lyrics.
Well, maybe "Cocaine" is optimistic. It shows that you're keeping up

with the trends.

The worst of it, Jackson, is that you give the chic seal of approval
the false glamor surrounding pop. What makes it unreal is how the
whole show entourage becomes a star. You're all on the bus. Well, now
roadies are immortal. Great.
The problem is that the energy is gone. People get yelled at unless
they're quiet and reverent with your music. Nobody's happy. Nobody's
dancing. Why should we stay? Could we take much more of it much
longer? I don't care if you don't come with two back up singers and an
opening act. Come with an acoustic guitar. There was energy in that,
even if slow burning energy.
The Zodiacs may not mind, Jackson, but I really do. I really liked
you for a long time, even before Circus had a page on you in '72 (that
really was a surprise). You wait so long to give us new music, and when
it comes, the temptation to admire it without examination is great. But
alas, Jackson, temptation it is and we puritans are taught to ignore that
evil apple. You tell us you’re running on empty. I quess I have no
choice but to agree.
Yours, Barbara

Original Film Score

(Arista)

I like to think of Debby Boone's "You Light Up
My Life" as an post-extremist reaction to punk rock,
the serenade of a middle American sweeetheart who
absorbed all of this country's dreamlike
inspirations and artificial desires for wealth and
acknowledgement and will not give them up. For

Edgar Winter, White Trash Recycled (Blue Sky)
Edgar Winter has just released a new album,
White Trash Recycled, whidh is all actually that same
funky get down boogie music commonly referred to
as Disco. Disgusting is more like it. The ablum leads
me to think that this is a take-off of the Average
White Band. You know, white guys that try to sound
black and come out sounding grey. White Trash
Recycled is better off at a recycling plant.
Hopefully, then, the music of Edgar's original White
Trash band will again resurface.
Winter lacks one major quality
create decent lyrical arrangements:

the ability to

"If- you've got some leftover love you've been
saving.
Don't throw it away cause I've got a cravin'

But soon I'm gonna be

Cause I'm bringin' you a brand new recipe."

this year's homogenous masterpiece: one which
opens the disc, another that closes it, and an
instrumental generously situated in between for
those daring enough to chance the schmaltz stuck in

Cisyk (?) and the total time value of the three
versions rings up at an incredible 10:45! Can you
believe it?

great, but instead may wind up a disco duck. When
the cut titled Shake It Off", appears you almost
expect the repetitive one-liner "Mama shake your ass

wheel-chair or at least a kindergarten.
The music taken as a separate entity is not quite
as bad. It is a good thing Winter receives help from
his longtime friend Larry LaCroix. LaCroix's work
on the sax is very good. The music is jazzy. Far from
the Wayne Shorter and Tom Scott type jazz, but
the music was played well. That's all. It sounds like
any other disco album should. Enough words

the words to one song which clearly
sums up Eddie's aim:

Dexter Gordon, Sophisticated Giant (Columbia)
Early in the last decade, a brass phoenix from bop rose in
Denmark. “I was given respect as an artist and no one asked how much
money I made or what car I drove." The man made Copenhagen his
home and Europe his artistic domain.
The fall of 1976 beckoned Dexter Gordon back to the United
States Audiences welcomed the man with enthusiasm and respect
Dexter's appreciation was reflected via vinyl, an inspiring Homecoming
Featured along with Dexter at the live Village Vanguard date, was
trumpeter Woody Shaw. While Dexter's playing was inspired, Shaw's
was energetically ablaze. His creativity merits far more recognition and
exposure than it has received
On Sophisticated Giant, recorded in June 1977, Dexter and
Woody sound together again. The context and mood however, are
significantly different from those of the freer Homecoming. The
"Expanded setting" on the "Special studio project" features an eleven
piece ensemble. The arrangements were handled by trombonist Slide
Hampton who is also heard inside and outside the ensemble.
Other soloists include vibist Bobby Hutcherson, trumpeter Benny
Baily, and members of the rhythm section, composed of George
CaPles, whose acoustic pianistics are a pleasant change from his recent
elctric works, bassist Rufus Reid who is perhaps best known by his
oooks, The Evolving Bassist and drummer Victor Lewis, deservingly
brought to Dexters attention by Woody Shaw
Rounding out the ensemble are trombonist Wayne Andre,
flutist/piccoloBsoprano man Frank Wess, and tuba/baritonist Howard
Johnson

all "Chuck's children" and it's good to hear solid
proof of getting into the uncomplicated vintage
boogie of yesteryear. Eddie cart scream with best of
the Stephen Tylers and to boggle your mind is to
take away from the neccessary simplicity.

The closest person I can compare Eddie Money's
attitude with is Rick Derringer. You've got
four-minute doses of frenetic rock and roll, compact
guitar riffs surrounding lyrics of dever, short
rhymes. Eddie falls in and out of love, separated
only by the vinyl in between each song. So, he leads
an up and down life. He doesn't care, in the true
spirit of a rocker, he moves onto the next available
victim.
The power behind Eddie's raunchy ditties is

Jimmy Lyon, the one who handles the guitars. He is
Eddie's right-hand man, twisting insane solos over
the moving chords. On a catchy number like
"Jealousys," Lyon is quite impressive in his handling
of the rhythms. He almost steals the show away
from him in a larger public view.
A credit to the production of Bruce Botnick is
the mix-down of the bass. The rhythm guitar is

Accordingly, Dexter is the featured soloist on "Laura", the

Appropriately enough, the ensemblee's mam show of life is heard
on Shaw's "Moontrane" {the allusion the roiling and serenity of the
departed master). Dexter's most energic words of the date are spoken

Bobby Hutcherson's soto spots appear on "Red Top" and Dexter s'
jp-tempo "Fried-Bananas’ The latter with its deep roots and faster
oace, provides an excellent showcase tor Hutcherson's happy percussive
song.

The laughing trombone of Slide Hampton also highlights Fried
Bananas
George Cable's shimmering reflection brings the late Bud Powell to
mind with his contemplation of the pretty "You’re Blase".
Antonio Carlos Jobim's classic "How Insensitive" provides for
final statements by Dexter and Shaw. The latter's sensitive
emotionalism is a pleasure. The former abandons his tenor for serene
aired soprano.
If Sophisticated Giant is a serene dream of Dexter Gordons,
reawakening is anxiously awaited. Peaceful float to energetic flight. As
for Woody Shaw, the beyond is tangible. His flight is true.

in
assumption, Bunn stated, “It is clear that women’s
studies is more specialized within Arts and Letters,
but the Women’s College does indeed $erve the entire
University. In fact, the basic relation between WSC
and Arts and Letters raises it to the University

level.”

Despite his implied support of WSC, Bunn was
unable to accommodate it as of the initial meeting.
He stated, “My response was that I didn’t have any
funds in my office immediately available.” Darrow
stated that it was decided that the issue should be
publicized contingent on Bunn’s reply. Accordingly,
the last two weeks of school before Christmas
vacation were devoted to acquiring 1500 petition
signatures and informing students of the impending
crisis. Because of what Darrow called “overwhelming
and diverse concern,” including the passage of
resolutions by SASU and the Student Association
Senate in support of WSC, the second December
meeting was arranged with Bunn at which an
agreement was reached.
When questioned as to why the funds were
appropriated as of the second meeting, Bunn
explained, “After the initial meeting I met with
Provost Levine. We had to assure the Women’s
Studies’ program of the possibility of its continuing
to operate. We. continued to take soundings of the
situation until a development within Arts and
Letters enabled Levine to free funds. Thus, we were
able to assure Women’s Studies and the College that
the two full-time faculty lines could be replaced with
appropriate substitutes.”
Tremendous pressure
It was stressed by students, faculty and officials
of WSC that even with three faculty lines there is
tremendous pressure upon the instructors. WSC
consists of undergraduate offerings for a BA in
American Studies (the college itself offers no degree
program) and an MA in American Studies with
concentrated emphasis on women’s studies. To
maintain the program, the three full-time faculty
members have additional responsibilities to their
normal teaching load which varies according to
course offerings and the number of students. A
faculty member must be a graduate advisor,
supervise the 21S collective which directs the
introductory course (and averages 150 students), or

teach two upper level courses. These extra loads are
fulfilled on a rotating basis among the teachers.
WSC has enthusiastic plans for its future.
Dubois’ replacement, who will teach until the fall
semester, is Ana Maria Hidalgo, a professor of Puerto
Rican Studies who previously taught at the
University of Chile in Santiago. She has also worked
in the WSC program here before, teaching a course
entitled “Latin Women” which will again be offered.
In addition, Hidalgo will co-teach an art studio
course drawing from past experience with textile
design in Chile. Darrow commented, “The new
faculty member is an asset to WSC. It’s important to
try to involve more Third World Women in the

schedule.
If you

are graduating or terminating this
semester, please come into the Office of Student
Accounts, Hayes A, or call 831-4735 for an exit

interview appointment.
Transcripts will be withheld for students who do
not comply.

WSC also plans to co-sponsor an “International
Women’s Day” on the campus and present movies
about women and the movement every Tuesday at 8
pm. on the Amherst Campus in Spaulding Quad,
Room 376. The latter program will begin on January
24 and will have no admission fee
Position paper
The college is also establishing a center at
Amherst offering tentative programs such as a Rape
Workshop, Health and Healing, Birth Control,
Consciousness Raising Groups, Auto Mechanics and
Self-Defense. New courses studying rape. Women
and Alcohol and Third World Women will also be
offered.
Darrow stated that WSC’s attempts to inform
the public were accepted well, and future
developments will continually be announced. Within
the next two weeks the college will publish a
position paper to let people know the importance of
issues presently being discussed, which will be
available at 108 Winspear Street. WSC would like to
encourage other groups to use the center and
welcomes all interested people.
Since its establishment in 1971, WSC has grown
to national acclaim. It is the largest women’s studies
unit at any school in the country and has served as a
model for similar programs at SUNY at Albany, the
University of Pennsylvania and Syracuse University.
Additionally, members of the College have
contributed to the development of the National
Women’s Studies Association, founded in January of
1977, and have served as hosts for the most recent
meeting of the Chancellor’s Advisory Committee for
Women’s Studies. Proud of WSC’s growth and
achievement its members look enthusiastically to the
future. According to Darrow, “With the past crisis
mostly behind us, we can now plan progressively and
know well exist.”

Question: What can
ripped

off by

/

do

if I feel

that I've been

an automobile repair shop

?

Answer; You need not accept poor or overly
expensive work done on a car. Out of town students,
particularly, are often ripped off because they do
not know which garages are reliable and/or what to
do if they have been cheated. Suppose your car
breaks down the day after you get it back from a
two hundred dollar repair job. The New York State
Repair Shop Act of 197S was passed to “protect

Business frat meets

Delta Sigma Pi, the professional business
fraternity at SUNY at Buffalo, starts off this
semester’s activities Saturday, January 21, featuring
three hours of activities highlighted by a speaker,
Anthony Diina, discussing “New Trends in
Banking.” Lunch will follow. All interested persons
are urged to attend.

consumers from dishonest, deceptive, and fraudulent'
practices.” Several consumer rights are guaranteed as
a result. First, every customer is entitled to a written

estimate upon request. You cannot be charged more
than the estimate unless you give your permission.
Also, the repair shop cannot perform any services
not authorized by you.
In addition, the law demands that a detailed
invoice stating work done, parts supplied, and
guarantees, if any, must be presented to you. If
replacement parts are not new, the shop must state
their actual condition in writing. You also must be
informed if the job is- subcontracted to a second
shop, in which case the first shop would still be held
responsible for the quality of service provided. In
short, the Automobile Repair Act protects the
consumer from overcharging, poor workmanship,
faulty diagnosis, failure to remedy product defects,
and failure to make repairs covered by a warranty.
If you feel that you have been treated unfairly,
first go back to the service station and try to solve
the problem youself. If this approach fails, you can
submit a written complaint to: Division of Vehicle
Safety, New York State Dept, of Motor Vehicles,
Empire State Plaza, Albany, N Y. 12228. You can
also call Albany (518) 474-8943. Try to include as
much information as possible to justify your
complaint. To make it easy on yourself, use the
Repair Shop Complaint Form VS-35 which may be
picked up at local Motor Vehicle issuing offices. The
local office is downtown in the Ellicott Square
Building at 295 Main Street. If you would like the
form mailed to you call 842-4334, or come up to
Legal Services and pick one up.

Hoopsters lose to Niagara
by Ron Baron
Assistant Sports Editor

Niagara Falls, N.Y.

Coach Leo Richardson

-

described his cagers’ play against Niagara Wednesday
evening as impatient, awful and discouraging after
the Purple Eagles defeated the Bulls 90-80 in the
Niagara Falls Convention Center. The game was the
second of a Big Four doubleheader.
The game was much more one sided than the
score indicated, as the Purple Eagles dominated
Buffalo in the first half. With a patient offense, and
the ability to control the boards, Niagara took a
commanding 48-26 halftime lead. Niagara was led
by the superb play of freshman forward Garry
Jordan. Jordan led all scorers at the half with 12
points, and he also pulled down five rebounds.
As usual, UB shot poorly, hitting.an anemic 26
percent in the first period. Buffalo showed no
offensive organization with Larry Jones and Ed
Johnson taking shots no closer than half court. As
Niagara sagged on center Sam Pellom, the remainder
of the offense showed its lack of poise and began
taking _goor shots. “We were very impatient on
offense,” stated Richardson. “Our quarterback,
Rodney McDaniel, didn’t have enough patience to
run the {days through, so I had no choice but to

benchhim.”
The Bulls had one bright spot in the first half as
Sam Pellom continued to be the backbone of the

Buffalo squad. Pellom grabbed nine rebounds, scored
seven points and seemed to be the only Bull to play
defense. For the game, Mlom totalled 18 rebounds,
13 points, and six blocked shots, keeping alive his
hopes Jo be drafted by a pro team.
Buffalo played fairly well in the opening

minutes, and trailed by only 16-14 with 13:44
remaining in the half. But Niagara then ran off 14
unanswered points, to build a commanding 22 point
lead. Down by a bundle at the half, Buffalo never
recovered.
Dan Raskin, the Niagara head mentor, said, “We
could have scored at will in the period. We
controlled the boards and capitalized on their
disorganization.” Raskin said his team started
sluggishly, but came back to play its style of

basketball.
Thv second half proved to be more competitive,
as the Bulls showed more organization on both
offense and defense. “We finally looked like a team
out there in the final period,” said Richardson.
Behind the improved shooting of both Larry
Jones and Ed Johnson, who scored 16 and 14 points
respectively in the second half. UB began to pick
away at the Purple Eagle bulge. Buffalo scored three
consecutive buckets to cut the lead to eight, with
one minute remaining. But, the Bull rally proved to
be too little too late.
Richardson was pleased with the play of two
reserve freshmen. Both Bruce Boneparte and Mike
Mosley, played well enough in the UB rally for
Richardson to insert them in the starting lineup.
Pellom, Jones and Johnson will round out the
revised starting five.
In the first game of the Big Four doobleheader,
Canisius easily defeated Buffalo State by a score of
81—68. It appears that a good battle may be in store
between UB and Buffalo State, in the final game of
the season to escape the Big Four cellar.
The Bulls will have their work cut out for
themselves tonight, as they’ll face Long Island
University in Clark Hall at 8 p.m.

Bulls ranked second
in NTS wrestling
by Suzan Rury
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Giving up most of their vacation, the UB wrestlers picked up three
wins in three tries, beginning their spree December 17 with a 40-3 win
over Oswego State.
After a ten day rest, the Bulls traveled to Pennsylvania for the
Wilkes Open Tournament where they met some of the top wrestlers of
the nation. Some of the wrestlers there came from tough Eastern
schools while ex-Olympians and non-academic wrestling clubs also
entered the competition. The highly competitive Midlands Invitational
was held on the same day as the Wilkes Open, but the Bulls chose the
Wilkes Open because only a few Bulls were invited to the Midlands

tournament.

Although the Bulls hoofed a good fight, only two of their wrestlers
placed. Sophomore Tom Jacoutot at 118 pounds finished fourth and
senior Kirk Anderson at 158 pounds ranked third.
Hadsell breaks record
Returning to Buffalo January 2, the UB squad sharpened their
horns with double session practices. On January 7, they traveled to
Pittsburgh for their biggest win of the season. “158 pounds on up did
exceptional,” stated coach Ed Michael. With the team down 18-2,
Anderson, Bruce Hadsell (167), Dave Mitchell (177), Jeff Wheeler
(190) and heavy weight Paul Curka donated five pins to achieve the
32-18 accomplishment, which was only their second win ever in the
Eastern Wrestling League. Hadsell also set a new UB record with 40
career wins. His over-all career record now stands at 41-16-3.
One week later the Bulls brushed away the Colgate Red Raiders
with a surprising 44-0 win. Lacking a 150 pound entry, Colgate began
the match six points behind. Then the Raiders’ 134pound senior Rick
Henniger hurt his knee late in the first period. The default added six
more points to the already impressive 12-0 lead.
Lack of enthusiasm
Coach Michael claimed the easy win was due to Colgate’s lack of
enthusiasm. “Going into a match giving up six points initially, then
having another teammate hurt his knee for a forfeit isn’t good Tor
morale,” he explained. Co-captain Anderson had his own thoughts
“They were scared They knew we were tough guys.”
The Buffalo squad enters the spring semester with a 5-1 recqrd
The Bulls are now ranked second in the state by the New York S(ate
Wrestling Association, behind Syracuse University. Buffalo will wrestle
the Orangemen on January 28 in Clark Hall at 1 pm.
Tomorrow the Bulls will be home against Binghamton. “Our boys
are really going to have to wrestle,” said Michael, but he is optimistic
The match will begin at 2 p.m. at Clark Hall .

&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;

New SUNY budget
stings Buffalo again

Governor Hugh L. Carey’s proposed budget for the 1978-79
fiscal year, released yesterday, falls approximately $5 million short
of SUNY at Buffalo’s request for an additional S6 million in
operating expenses.
The SUNY system received less than 50 percent of its request for
an additional $90.2 million in operating expenses. Of the $43.8
million requested for increases in fixed costs, $42.7 million was
received. SUNY at Stony Brook was awarded approximately $17
million to complete the staffing of its new hospital.
The budget still must go to the State Legislature for evaluation
where there is expected to be a heated battle over funding for
education. Anything the Legislature adds, the Governor can veto
line-by-line. Carey has no say in additional Cuts imposed by the
Legislature. The Legislature is not expected to adopt a final budget
until mid to late March.
The effects of the $lashes have yet to be gauged, according to
Assistant to the President Ronald Stein. However, University
Comptroller William Baumer said, “Given the pressure, we didn’t
fair as poorly as we might have Some things we requested and
didn’t get are going to create some major problems.”

Many problems
Vice President for Finance and Management Edward Doty said,
“The lack of an increase in busing money sticks out like a
sorythumb as a major problem.” Student Association of the State
Univesrity (SASU) Director of Communications Sue Grossman
suggested that Equal Opportunity Program (EOF) students were
going to suffer severely from an additional proposed cut of S60 per
student. She also said the health fee was not repealed. “Both of
these, Grossman added, “were SUMY and SASU priorities.”
Doty explained that he was not surprised that the proposed
budget has “elements of austerity in it.” He added that this
University will receive “nothing in the way of new funding or
strengthening of existing programs.”
Another major cut is the allocation of funds to only S6 new staff
instead of the requested 82 positions. Deletions from the budget
include an $876,000 cut in rentals, and a $827,000 cut in moving
expenditures. Stein said “The Administration has not had time
enough to evaluate the proposed budget and see how programs were
Grossman commented, ‘They’re definitely putting the axe on.”

Sit down, grab a cup of coffee and prepare younelf for being
seduced into writing for The Spectrum. Okay, now apologize to the
person next to you for staining his corduroys with hot coffee and, in
between wheezes and gags,read carefully. The earth may never be the
same.
The following is a brief rundown of the world’s top excuses for
not joining The Spectrum. Please read them all and pay particular
attention to your favorite.

This is a very popular excuae. You wouldn’t believe how much 1

a number of times.

Well, didn’t your grandmother ever tell you, “There is no such
thing as can’t?” Neither did mine, but if you’re mart enough, or
deranged enough, to be admitted to this institution, then you should
have the intellectual faculties to be of .some miniscule use to us. And
besides, how do you know until you try? Now don't answer with,
“How do 1 know what it’s like to jump over Niagara Falls tint! I try?”
because 1 invented that one and besides, everyone knows you can’t

Look, if you really can’t write, we’ll let you know in any number
of slick, subtle, tactful ways. Using your story to light a joint, tor

I'm sure they have enough writers.
A very common excuse, but not easily defended. If this one were
true, why would 1 waste this paper trying to recruit people we didn’t
need? We would much rather use this space for advertisements and rake
in some more bucks.
The truth is that desperate editors have been known to call people
at random out of die student directory demanding to know why thenstories are not in by the deadline. The unassuming student is not fooled
by this, although some will apologize profusely to die unknown editor.
Needless to say, this is not the best way to round up new talent. You.
have no idea how many times we’ve looked up the name “Woodstein”
hoping that just maybe...

was underestimated. The new design could not be
completed in time.”
The move was then postponed until the end of
this semester by the Office of Facilities Planning
because the carpeting needed to furnish the library’s
permanent space on the first floor of Capen Hall has
not yet arrived, according to Budget and Facilities
Planning Officer of the Libraries, John Vasi.
Carpet problems
The carpeting of Capen Hall is a key factor in
determining when the UGL will move. Orignally,
the UGL was to temporarily relocate to the already
carpeted third floor of Capen in order to vacate the
old UGL building for the Computer Science
department, Roy explained. However, when plans
for die renovation of the old UGL building were
deemed unacceptable by Facilities Planning, it was
decided that the UGL should remain in its present
space. The library will move to the first floor of
Capen when it is carpeted. “We could easily wait
until oar permanent space is completed,” Roy said.
“There is no reason for us to hurry. We are aiming
for one move.”

According to Vasi. the postponement of the
UGL move to Amherst has not affected the
timetable for the relocation of other University
Libraries. “The UGL is a relatively small move,” Vasi
said. “The longer we wait the easier it will be
because incoming new equipment will reduce the
numberof old desks and shelves to be moved
Because the relocation of the UGL will not take
place until the end of this semester, the libraries in
the Elllcott Complex will “probably remain open in
order to help fill the need for a library at the
Amherst Campus,” Assistant Vice President of
Facilities Pluming, Albert Dahlberg said.
Chairman of Computer Science Anthony
Ralston said the date of the move to the UGL has
not yet been decided. The earliest possible date,
Ralston said, is the end of this semester but, he
added, “1 doubt that we will move before Christmas
”

of next year.”
The scheduled move of the Undergraduate
library (UGL) to Capen Hall on the Amherst
Campus has been pushed back twice as a result of
separate complications, according to Director of
Uuversity Libraries, Saktidas Roy.
The move, which was supposed to take place
during the semester break, was to precede the
relocation of the Computer Science Department
from the Ridge Lea Campus to the vacated UGL
space, Roy said.

The Spectrum ir our big clique.
A rather rtckxu excuse, usually uttered with a loathsome voice
and a scornful eye. You really think this one bugs us, don’t you? 1
know this rap, even the typewriters are New York lews. WeB, let me
tell you something, s number at our machines are atheists, and one or
two have married Catholics besides, so your goddamn stereotype
doesn’t fit. Whoever heard of a lew named Smith-Corona anyways?
I guess this whole clique business depends on how you define the
word. If you mean a close-knit coterie of uncommonly talented people
who work hard at what they do and enjoy an occasional orgy, then yes,
we are a clique. However, if you .mean an assemblage of egotistical,
exclusive assholes who make strangers feel about is welcome as Anita

also a little ludicrous.

deluged with pet rocks that had grown too big or

Unpaid student loans
affect career choices
by Denise Stumpo
Feature Editor

More than $S.S billion in undergraduate and graduate student

loans has not been repaid by college students, according to the latest
government figures. Consequently, many graduates have large debts
hanging over their heads upon entering the job market, which worries
education experts.
The prospect of massive loan repayments, they say, will influence
students’ career goals and point them toward high-paying jobs.
What’s wrong with a high salary? It’s what often goes along with it,
says Kurt L. Kendis of the University of Pennsylvania. He warns that
the burden of debts will result in career choices “which dearly do not
benefit society.”
Educators fear that newly graduated medical doctors with unpaid
loans, for instance, will shun public-health positions in favor of private
practices and specialties. Physicians with large loans on their minds,
they feel, may not be sensitive to the need to hold down increasing
health costs.
“We cannot have graduate and professional students entering the
world with $20,000, $30,000, and $50,000 in debts,” voiced Kendis.
“Maybe if they are unlucky enough to marry a man or woman who is
also a graduate or professional student, which is a more and more
familiar phenomenon, then we are talking about combined debts
between $50,000 and $100,000. That is before they have earned a

As many as half the students entering private colleges and
universities last fall will owe money when they graduate in 1981, with
an estimated avenge indebtedness of $5,000.
“We may be on the verge again of having a tremendous expansion
in the use of debt,” said
Rimsden, executive director of the
Consortium on the Financing of Higher-Education,
Twenty years ago, only $26 million was available through various
programs for student loans. Half of it was never touched, and most
tfis
who borrowed used the money to pull themselves out of short-term
situations. In contrast, during the 75-76 academic year, an estimated
7!-3 million students borrowed a total of $2.6 billion to help pay for
their educations.
The current loan program is seen by many leading educators, as
confusing and inadequate in dealing with the growing loan demand.
Loans are offered through the Federal Government, private
organizations, colleges, universities, and a growing number of states.
A soaring default rate is the most pressing of problems for the

educational programs available for high school
dropouts in Buffalo, to be used in conjunction with
a Youth Advocacy Project presently being developed
in the city of Buffalo, and gathering support from
key faculty and admissions officials for legislation to
reform the Educational Testing System in New York
State
Students worked extensively with other
concerned citizens, both on campus and in the
community, to do research and organize support for
reforms in these areas. This semester, students will
continue to work in conjunction with legislation in
Albany. NYPIRG student lobbyists, assigned to
specific issues, will be working closely with students
on campus here, focusing their efforts on the
constituents of key legislators.
Not only was there a sense of accomplishment
from constructive activity last semester, but also a
sense of comraderie among a group of people
working towards common goals of reforming the
system. Volunteers made dents in the stereotyped
image of the apathetic college student, and had fun
at the same time.
NYPIRG provides a valuable experience for any
student wishing to learn, change the system, and
enjoy it. Many students are amazed to find their
efforts turned into published reports in a relatively
short period of time, with the subsequent effect of
raising the public’s consciousness and creating
change on many fronts.
Any students wishing to join this semester can
go to the NYPIRG office in Room 311 Squire Hall,
or call 831-5426.

Approximately 50 students had an opportunity
last semester to receive a valuable educational
experience to work .towards social and political
change, and to have a good time at it. These students

NYPIRG is a non-partisan, non-profit research

college and university students throughout New

Students receive training in writing, research,
advocacy, and organizing skills by NYPIRG’s
professional staff. They apply these skills in a wide
variety of public interest projects, in areas of
consumer protection, political reform, social justice,

conservation, and governmental fiscal

responsibility.
&lt;
Last semester, NYPIRG students worked
successfully on eight projects including: examining
auto repair shop practices of diagnosing “rigged”
problems; measuring the energy efficiency of over 65
buildings in the area, and providing the information
to building owners and the new County Department
of Energy; studying the compliance by local public
bodies with'the State Sunshine Laws, with findings

This excuse has been gaining popularity lately. The fact Is, we
sincerely try to assign stories to people who have some desire to write
them. Of course, there are certain issues that must be covered, but we
never force anyone to work on a story he doesn’t want. We even visit
people in the hospital after they refuse. If you have your own ideas
about what’s good for The Spectrum, we’ll certainly listen. !, as a lowly
staff writer, produced 14 of my 16 stories from my own imagination.
Anything relevant to the campus community is fair game. The
wilder and more far-out, the better it will have to be written. If you

come in with a story about Sex and the Outboard Motor, for instance,
it’s going to have to be pretty damn good. If it is, we’ll print it Come

The Spectrum is something you read religiously, three times a

The track and field Bulls open their indoor schedule
Monday with a dual meet against Fredonia State at the
.
Bubble.
The team is back on the varsity level this year and has
a busy schedule. Buffalo will compete in a total of seven
meets,
culminating with the New York State
Championships on March 18.
After a three week break, the Bulls will begin their
'

outdoor season. From April 12 through May 13, the squad
will compete in ten meets, including the Big Four
Championship on May^6.
The team will be hard pressed to defend its Big Four
Championship performance of a year ago. Buffalo State
has hired a new coach and recruited several good sprinters.

distances. In the middle distances, the Bulls will have Ken
Dole, a 1 ;57 half-miler, and John Ward, a cross-country

UB Basketball Bulls

simply keep

on

losing

The basketball Bulls continued their losing ways, coming up on the
short side in four out of five contests during the Christmas break.
Buffalo was victimized by Colgate, Cornell, University of Detroit and
Central Michigan. The lone UB victory came at the expense of the
University of Wisconsin at Milwaukee.
The Division III Bulls faced only Division I competition, and coach
Leo Richardson felt the ballclub played its best. “We did the best we
could against the stiff competition,” said Richardson.
Buffalo started their Christmas break blues by dropping both
games in the Cornell Invitational Tournament. In the opening game of
the tournament, Colgate narrowly defeated UB 73-71 in overtime. Ed
Johnson and Sam Pellom led the Buffalo attack by scoring 20 and 17
points respectively. In the consolation game, the Big Red of Cornell
handed Buffalo their second defeat in as many days, 85-75.
Following a ten-day break, the rested Bulk travelled to Milwaukee.
Buffalo earned its second victory of the season by defeating the
Rmthers 78-75. Again, senior guard Ed Johnson sparked the Bulb by
;c
leading all UB scorers with 24 points.
Buffalo’s winning streak lasted only one game, as UB next faced
the University of Detroit. Hie nationally ranked Detroit fne crushed
the bulls 122-81. “Detroit is the best team welt'fact all year,” stated
Richardson. “They’re better than Syracuse and probably tops in the
,'J
East.
The Bulls’ final contest during the winter break again ended on a
sour note. Central Michigan bombed Buffalo 102-73 in Mount Pleasant,
Michigan. This most recent defeat gives the Bulls a 2-10 record on the
year.
Tonight, UB returns to the Niagara Frontier, facing Niagara
University at the Niagara Falls Convention Center at 9 pan.

Emphasis shifts away from four course load
by Jay Rosen
Managing Editor

Shrugging aside student protest, the Faculty Senate
voted overwhelmingly yesterday to adopt its committee
report on the four course load. The move will bring to an
uneven end the University-wide four-credits for

three-classroom hour policy.
The adopted report recommends that the University
establish the three-credit for three-classroom hour policy
as an academic base and that each department undertake a
“systematic review” of all programs to determine which
courses should be granted exceptional status. The report

will be forwarded to Vice President for Academic Affairs
Ronald F. Bunn for his virtually certain official approval.
Supporters of the report were insistent in their
contentions that a majority of students will not face a five
course load in thy future. In fact, the report recommends
that “no particular number of courses” be designated as a
“desired norm.” Some departments, especially in the
science-related fields, will probably remain with four credit
courses after their evaluations. Departments in the
Humanities and Social Sciences are expected to have
four-credits
for
present
difficulty
justifying the
three-classroom hour policy and will probably be forced to
reduce the number of credits granted for each course to
three. The report discourages any “beefing up” of courses
that would seek to justify an extra credit.
Students present at the meeting voiced wide-ranging
disenchantments with the committee and its report
Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia asked
that implementation of the report be delayed until

construction of the Amherst Campus moved farther along.
His request was not heeded. Delia’s view was that the
report, if implemented this Spring as planned, will strain
already inadequate facilities such as lecture halls and buses
by effecting a rise in the number of courses $nd a

getting “more for their money” through the report and
ought to embrace its proposals accordingly. In response,
SA Senator Alan Greenberg suggested acidly that “we’re
not a supermarked but a University. If this is a
supermarket, perhaps we should have a sale on three-credit

corresponding increase in inter-campus travel.
SA Director of Academic Affairs Bob Sinkewicz
criticized the committee for buckling to pressure exerted
by the State Division of Budget (DOB) to adopt the

courses to attract more

three-for-three system. He called the report “biased” and
the
the
this

charged in an interview with The Spectrum that
Faculty Senate deliberately excluded students from
committee. “1 think it’s extremely detrimental to
report,” he told the Senate, “that students were

not

allowed to have a say on the committee.” Sinkewicz
claimed that despite repeated attempts by SA officials, the
committee purposely failed to inform students of the
committee’s meeting times.
The student side won a minor victory when the Senate
passed an ammendment to the report recommending that
students be involved in the evaluation process within the
various departments.
Committee Chairman Robert Springer repeatedly
stressed that he does not expect a wholesale shift to
three-credit courses. He also claimed that the report’s
adoption will not trigger a significant rise in the number of
courses scheduled but rather an increase in the number of
students per course. Springer emphasized that each
department must evaluate its own programs and come up
with particular adherences to the report’s general
guidelines.
Several Faculty

students.”

The concept of the four-course load was approved by
the same Faculty Senate in 1968. It’s purpose was to grant

depth by carrying a smaller number of courses.
Disagreements over the original intent behind the four

surfaced at yesterday’s meeting
disagreements which, to a large extent, were responsible
for the formation of the Springer Committee. Some
senators claimed that professors were instructed in 1968
not to “beef up” their courses but instead to allow
students greater educational depth through individual,
outside study. There was purported to be documented

evidence of such instruction.
Faculty Senate Chairman Jonathan Richert,

a tireless
of the 1977 report, claimed that the true
“spirit” of the 1968 change was to toughen up courses to
make them worthy of the extra credit. Richert observed
that some units of the University (most notably
Fngineering and Management) actively beefed up their
curriculums. Others, he said, did not. Richert’s view was
supported by University President Robert Ketter.
It appears that the varying departmental reactions to
the
1968 shift have, nine years later, led to a
reconsideration of the four course load’s intent and are
directly responsible for the varying effect the 1977 report
will have on the University’s academic structure

refurbished the theater for its own
uses. After a few years of poor
business, they had to foreclose the
Buffalo operation, leaving a great
deal of back taxes unpaid. As a
result of this abandonment, the
theater became city property.

It is housed within the Granada
Complex, which also includes six
storefronts and seven apartments.
The theater is located in a busy,
well known business area on Main
Street between West Northrup
and West Winspear Streets. The
theater has been closed for
approximately two years and
recently the city decided to divest
itself and put it up for bid.

�Board contract prices
raised by Food Service
by Paulette Buraczenski
Campus

Editor

The price of Food Service board contracts will be increasing 3
percent, according to Director of Food Service, Donald Hosie. The
increase, which will be implemented at the start of next semester, is
"basically a result of the 35 cent minimum wage increase," Hosie said,
terming it “higher than we anticipated.”

In addition to the increased labor cost, food costs have risen 2
percent. Hosie claimed, which has contributed to the overall rise in
contract price. According to Student Association (SA) Treasurer Neil
Seiden, who is also a member of the Faculty Student Association
(FSA) board, minimum wage has risen 15 cents beyond what was
budgeted as the projected minimum wage increase. Food Service made
a contingency allowance for minimum wage to rise to $2.50. Seiden
explained, and had to budget an additional 15 cents for each man hour.
"This (the increase) is not their doing," Seiden said, “It comes from
the official government.”
Not enough budgeted
Food Service has to budget extra money to cover cost increases for
the following year, Seiden claimed. “As far as I know," he s!hnh “FSA
generally uses all money in their capacity for students.” He said that
many students complained because brownies went up 10 cents in one
day Seiden, in accordance with Hosie, claimed that the cost of
ingredients rose “beyong the point of breaking even ."
Hosie. the Food Service budget allowed for a one
in food cost, a one percent increase in labor, and a one
in the miscellaneous fund which includes telephone
service, Social Security increases, insurance, etc. The board contract
increase, Hosie said, is an additional $6 thousand which had not been
budgeted in the projected increases.

More meals
The largest meal plan, according to Hosie, will increase SI3
because of cost increases and an additional $12 because of the addition
of another meal (on Sunday morning) to the plan. “In effect,” Hosie
said, “the 18 meal a week plan is now a 19 meal a week plan, and the
13 meal a week plan is now a 14 meal a week plan.” The addition of
the extra meals was a result of a survey of students on board contract,
Hosie said.
The two largest meal plans will increase $13. The 19 meal plan will
cost $458 and the 14 meal plan will cost $436. The 15 meal plan will
cost $372, an additional cost of $11 over this semester’s cost for the
same plan. The 10 meal plan will cost $10 more; $350. A new 5 meal a
week plan is being offered at a cost of $240.
Food Service is currently requesting permission from the Federal
Department of Labor to pay students a sub minimum wage 85 percent
of full minimum wage to help allay the cost of board contracts.
According to Hosie, projected minimum wage increases are $2.65 for
this January, $2.90 for Jan. 1979, $3.10 for Jan. 1980 and up to $3.35
for Jan. 1981. Food service costs will increase accordingly.

added. “Buffalo in general is an
isolated community in the area of

One woman noted that due to
the isolation of the building,
“Bethune is a dangerous place to

Yet, some students feel there is

Bartending the most Shakespea
social job on campus
by Gerard Sternesky
Spectrum Arts Editor

by Brenda Strayhall
Spectrum Staff Writer
What’s it like to be a bartender at the Wilkeson pub?
“I like it,” said Dave Cordts, “I’m able to see all my friends when
they come in and tending bar keeps me out of trouble.” Don Miller
agrees, “It’s a great way to meet people.”
Bartenders have sharp ears, according to Cordts, and often pick up
on interesting conversations. Sometimes they find themselves in an
unusual situation, says Tom Lener who was once approached by a male
who inquired if he’d be interested in some group sex after hours. Lener
declined the offer.
“Some of the people that come in here are too much,” remarked
Bill Poachal, “and are impatient, expecting to be served hand and foot.
They’re the ones who end up being served last.” Anyone who is a
constant troublemaker is “blacklisted,” according to Doug Carroll, a
pub bartender for two years. There isn’t really a list kept but the
bartenders can usually recall the agitators. They are held responsible
for the shot-pourers, worth $15 each. The male who stole one once
hasn’t been served since, they claim.
Another problem that happens very often is theft of tips from the
cups on the counter. “Who do you accuse?” asks Carroll. “I’ll be
making a drink and hear change sliding out of the cup and when I turn
around, the person, my tips with him, are long gone.” Carroll said his
girlfriend, who is a waitress, could clear as much as $40 in a given night
whereas he’d consider himself lucky to clear $3.

Closet dramatists may live in
closets, but playwrights who write
for the theatre of the world must
live in the world. They must be
more than mere observers, for
they must commit themselves
fully to life before they can write
about it with sympathy and

understanding.
So writes Frank W. Wadsworth
in his introduction to The
Complete Pelican Shakespeare.
His comments are particularly
appropriate in discussing Bingo,
Or Scenes of Money and Death,
the delightful new production by
The Center For Theater Research,
because they form the basis of the
play’s dramatic tension. Bingo,
written by Edward Bond, is about
the last months in the life of
William Shakespeare, about the
process of self-evaluation which
he may have unde ’one. As much
as possible (the biographical
records are, by modern standards,
scant) the play is factual, and
there is little reason to believe

�IT deadline: survey finds

it earlier than other centers
Students at this University have less time to
withdraw from courses than do students at other
SUNY centers, a recent survey conducted by The
Spectrum revealed.
According to the News Editor of the Student
Press at SUNY at Albany that University’s students
had the most time, up to one week prior to the close
of classes, for a student to “officially withdraw” or

receive a “W” on his transcript. He stated that there
have been no indications from either students or the
Administration that a change may be made.

Reducing the time
At both Binghamton and Stony Brook, the
official withdrawal period is eight weeks, although
the Administrative gears are in motion to try to
reduce the time in Binghamton. According to a
source at Binghamton’s Registrar Office, there is a
motion in that University’s Faculty Senate to move
the date back to “either six or seven weeks.” Exactly
when the new date would go into effect was not

known.
At this University students only have until
February 24, six weeks after the beginning of the
semester to withdraw from courses. This time period
has been a point of controversy since the Faculty
Senate put it into effect. According to Chairman of

the Faculty Senate, Jonathan Reichart, a motion to
review that decision was almost unanimous. “The
Faculty feels very strongly about this,” he said.
Reichart was quick to point out that institutions
such as Colgate University had two weeks to resign
and in still others “you’re stuck with what you
register for.”
Reichart stated he thought that the Senate was
being “generous” with the six week withdrawal, and
added, “If I had my way, it would be four weeks.”
He reiterated that the Senate felt that additional
withdrawal time would cause consuming of sapce,
preventing other students from taking the course. He
said that this was the way the Faculty Senate wanted
to prevent students from “shopping around.”
We’re being fair
Reichart claimed that the “vast majority of
professors do give tests” before the six week
deadline, and also give a description of the course at
the beginning, which should give the student
sufficient information to decide whether he should
stay in the class. When it was pointed out that there
are a lot of classes where tests were not given until
after the six week deadline, Reichart added, “That’s
life.”

Braving the storm

Bus shelters tied up in Albany
by Joel Mayersohn
Spectrum Staff Writer

In another example of bureaucratic blundering,

bus shelters accommodating up to 200 people that
were ordered in August 1977, have yet to be
installed because the order has been held over in
Albany. With winter’s grip clutching the Western
New York area, students at the Amherst Campus
have had to brave Mother Nature’s elements
unsheltered, while waiting for buses at the Hamilton
and Flint loops.
The shelters are right now in the office of
Standards and Purchases in Albany where engineers
are checking the buildings’ specifications. According
to Assistant Vice-President for Purchasing Paul
Bacon, “The problem lies in the design of the
shelters.” Bacon requested that each shelter contain
a dome roof because “it would be structurally
sounder and more decorative than the flat roof.”
Somewhere in the bureaucracy the dome shelter was
eliminated, although Bacon could not single out
exactly where. Bacon stated that Standards and
Purchases is now reviewing both shelter types and
will report their findings to the manufacturer, who
will make the adjustments in the structure
accordingly.

What puzzles students is why the shelters were
first ordered in August, when administrators knew of
the major shift to Amherst months before? Bacon
w amed this situation on “numerous controversies. It
was not until July that we were able to ascertain our
bus routes.” Bacon also indicated the tremendous
difficulty in finding companies who manufactured

bus shelters. In fact, only two firms sent in bids for
the shelters.
Both
Vice-President for
Finance
and
Management Edward Doty and Bacon were unable
to predicate the date of the shelters arrival. Doty
stated, “This is a bureaucratic problem and any
explanation would not be satisfactory to the
students or me.”
Another unanswered question is the amount of
time needed to install the new shelters. Bacon is
unsure of the way the Shelters will be shipped. This
problem along with weather conditions and the
number of men assigned to the installation will
determine the amount of time needed to place the
structures. As Bacon indicated, “It would be foolish
to set an exact amount of time, but considering all
the variables involved it could take a fair amount of
time.”

Erie County Executive Ned
Regan has labelled the New York

State management system for
Medicaid “the worst in the
country.” His statement came in
response to a series of questions
regarding
recently
published
figures of estimated waste in the
program on both the state and

national levels.
On a brighter note Regan
called the Erie County program as
good as they come in New York
State. ‘That’s not saying there’s
not error,” Regan stated, “but we
are free from the chronic abuses
prevalent in New York City. New
York City is famous for its abuses
of the Medicaid program.” Regan
explained
what
he
called
Gotham’s “ping ponging process”
where people are shuffled back

agencies and services until the

begin again a month later.
Regan
good
credited
investigators with having Erie
County on top of the situation.
“They’ve checked all agencies,”
he said. “The fraudulent ones
have been caught, convicted and
assessed huge fines.”
Despite recent reform efforts
on the part of the state, Regan has
little faith in its ability to effect a
significant change in the program.
He classified the efforts as
“movement, but very late and
very little.”
No state control

doesn’t have control over his
system of management.”
Funding for the program seems
to present a major hitch in any
reform action according to the
County Executive. “New York is
the only state in the country in
which the county pays as much as
half of the State Welfare bill,” he
explained.

“We had to shut down libraries
and close parks. Taxpayers just
don’t make the connection.
Money is cutely hidden, buried in
state tax bills. Albany is a
marvelous place to hide. People

Not phone booths
What can be assured is the size and location of
the structures. Each shelter will be rectangular in
design. Its measurement will be 10’x45’. Two, five
foot openings will be in each edifice. Each aperture
will be specified for a corresponding bus route, so
that students can position themselves at the
appropriate section of the shelter. According to
Vice-President for Facilities and Planning John
Telfer, “The positioning of the shelters is based on
present pedestrian patterns and current wind

direction.”
Bacon wanted to clarify the presence of the
existing structure at the Hamilton loop. “This is not
shelter, whoever believed that had

To the Editor.

Yesterday's Faculty Senate vote to adopt its Committee report on
the four course load is a stinging affront to undergraduate students
here. Student leaders claim, with compelling evidence to back them up,
they were excluded from the committee. The report was completed
without student input and, more importantly, without any desire to
seriously consider student misgivings about the recommended shift
away from the four course load. We find it deplorable and utterly
inexcusable that, on a decision so profoundly important to students,
the Faculty Senate would, with such arrogance and disrespect, ignore
student protests while at the same time pulling the strings on their
academic lives.
Faculty Senate Chairman Jonathan Richert should be singled out
for cutting off debate on the report after 4S minutes. The fact that
Richert, knowing students had no say on the committee,, had the gall to
look seven or eight students waiting to speak right in the eye and say "I
believe we've heard enough" is infuriating. We suggest that the Faculty
Senate has the obligation to sit and listen to discussion on this crucial
issue for as long as necessary. Those Senators and Chairmen who
desired to make it home for dinner should chew on these predictions;
The report will encourage arbitrary standards. Some
departments will try to get away with four credits, while others will
settle for three. Degree requirements will be thrown into chaos.
Students will have to juggle their schedules to accomodate courses that
are worth varying amounts of credit. Scheduling anarchy will result.
Thp problems of class size, inadequate bus service and split
campuses will be worsened. Watch for more accreditation problems.
The number of courses taught by graduate students will
increase, further lowering the reputation of some departments.
Students will search for, and find two or three relatively easy
courses instead of one or two. Instructors will be more willing to
provide such.
We fully expect to be able to say “we told you so" in a couple of
yean. More immediately, we call for the Vice President for Academic
Affairs Ronald Bunn to delay rubber stamping the report until student
grievances can be adequately aired. We also call on Bunn to investigate
charges that students were deliberately left off the committee.

Cogito, ergo sum
Those who believe in evaluation and
would surely
argue that now is the time to consider what has been done, for better
or for worse, and then what deeds have yet to be fully realized or even
conceived. Such is a process common to many, conscious or
unconscious or someplace far in between, common to those who have
real pasts upon which they will divine the highest order of futures.
Interesting is how some can feel the potential of their futures, be it
in a dream to be fulfilled or in a function within ready grasp, while
others are interested in nothing in either direction beyond their
immediate circumstances, and will thus not know where they are going
until they arrive nor how to reflect on the past to help them get there.
One is reminded of a brightly-colored fresco found in the Minoan
ruins at Knossos on the Greek island of Crete. Since transposed onto a
post card (of course), it features two crudely-drawn birds positioned
back to back. One is gazing to the future and the other to the past. The
space separating the two is negligible.
Where has this newspeper gone this semester? Where will it go next
semester? Where did you go this semester? Did you learn anything?
Was it fun? You m&amp;it not even be here next semester but think about
wrtiat transpired and how it differed from what you really wanted to do
and make done. Did you make “it" occur or did "it" occur to you?
If none of this matters (not the style, but the substance), then you
could not conceivably care about wfcere you are taking your life, nor
worrying about the possibility that it might be taking you.
Keep thinking. It could set you back a number of years and change
your future. Happy holidays; don't get too

Rosen is bullshit
To the Editor.

In Monday’s edition of The Spectrum, Managing
Editor Jay Rosen invited all readers to submit
comments on his “Exile on Main Street” column.
Being an avid reader of Mr. Rosen’s articles, I would
like to be the first to state my opinions.
“Exile” is a bullshit column. The topics
discussed are often unclear and the reader is
frequently confused as to the relevance of the
articles. An exception would be Mr. Rosen’s latest
article in which he comments on the student’s lack
of involvement at this University. Upon finishing the
article, however, the reader is still left unsatisfied
because Mr. Rosen hasn’t suggested any useful ways
as to how the students can become more involved at
this University.
Also, Mr. Rosen’s use of the English language is

in definite need of improvement. 1 have often
observed Mr. Rosen using the following phrases in
his articles: I must admit, the tact of the matter is, I
must say, and in my opinion. Why use these
hackneyed phrases in your editorials? The reader
already knows that the article is an editorial and who
the editorial is written by. Using these catch-all
phrases is just wasting words and illustrates your lack
of proper schooling. Putting quotations around key
words or ideas is another poor example of writing
that should have been eliminated back in grade
,
school.
In the future I hope that Mr. Rosen will take
just a little more time in developing his articles.
After all, this is a college institution we are attending
and we shouldn’t be subjected to kindergarten
literature.

�Phlegmatic Garcia review
To the Editor

The December 9 review of the Jerry Garcia
concert was horrendous, if not ridiculous. Mr.
Papadopoulos (I hope I spelled it wrong) has his
head buried under a pile of phlegm. While totally
ignoring the actual concert, Mr, Papadopoulos flicks
amateurish cheap shots at Mr. Garcia, whom he
slanders by calling him a “fat old hippie.” Maybe the
Music Editor forgets that certain feelings and
passions for Garcia’s style are timeless!

punk rock Christmas, indeed! Love and Peace from
the Summer of ’67.

University is totally analogous to a person in dire
need, desiring to use a vandalized pay toilet. Our
tuition is equivalent to the dime one inserts in the
slot. The human excretment and gobs of unflushed
matter in the said toilet is reminiscent of the snow
that clogs all the parking lots, causing the commuter
to issue forth a barrage of foul language from his
speaking orifice. The large quantity of offal in this
vandalized squat stool is also comparable to the no
doubt superior intelligence occupying the large and
globular cranial cavities that belong to the officials in

charge of snow clearing and maintenance on the
Main Street campus of this truly great university.
These very intelligent officials did not have only a
whole weekend but indeed the Friday afternoon
before to plan and effect the removal of all the
five-sided precipitory matter that innocently graced
the lots. Did they come through? Were the studenfis
able to park? No! In effect, and in complete
accordance with the analogy, the students were
forced to shit in their pants for lack of properly
maintained facilities. We have truly been lambasted
and lampooned by our beloved university With S

insane article by Dimitri Papadapolous. It is quite
evident that Mr. Papadapolous knows little about the

enough to review the concert. Did I say Review?
Excuse me, there was no review of that concert in

mistitled “The Grateful Dead Show Quite

that it was not the show that was worthless, it was
the review that was worthless. Excuse me, there 1 go

did not use his column to write about the Jerry
Garcia Band show, but used it as a forum to air his
personal views about Jerry Garcia.
Mr. P., 1 question your integrity as a columnist
Were you actually present at the concert? It is quite
obvious that your personal beliefs would normally
keep you away from “Garcia Band” concerts. If you
were there, then why?
In effort to clear a few points, let me first repeat
the fact that this was NOT a Grateful Dead show. It
was a Jerry Garcia Band show. There exists a broad
distinction between the two groups. Mr. Garcia is
not limited, as are many other musicians, to be
typed into a particular format of music. His past has
reflected his talents in accompaniment with such
musicians as Merl Saunders, C.S.N.&amp;Y. (On Deja Vu)
and David Bromberg, to mention a few. Surely there
are not too many musicians who could do the same
with so many different styles of music.

The Garcia Band’s opening song, James Taylor’s
“How Sweet It Is” reflected the many varieties of
music that were to come. Other songs that the
Garcia Band plays include Jimmy Cliff’s “The
Harder They Come,” Bob Dylan’s “Knocking on
Heaven’s Door,” and Joan Baez’s “The Night They
Drove Old Dixie Down.” These are not the average
songs that one would expect to hear of the Grateful
Dead but are for the Jerry Garcia Band As a matter
of clarification, it is a celebrated rarity when the
Garcia Band plays a Grateful Dead song. The
individuality of the two groups remain, as intended,
intact
The second point of which 1 would like to
clarify, is in response to the letter written by the
individual who complained of prolonged breaks. Mr
Fischetti: How much can you ask of one individual?
Never mind the fact that the Garcia Band is one of
only a select few musical groups that even dare to
give a two set show for a single admission price A
four to five minute break after a ten to twenty
minute song is not what I would call unreasonable.
I’ll tell you what is unreasonable though,
unreasonable is greedy individuals such as yourself
who are not satisfied when a musician puts his all
into a longer than average show and then have the
balls to scream for more, after the set has ended
That is unreasonable!
Again 1 repeat the fact that I am glad that very
few people got to read last Friday’s The Spectrum.

Well, here’s another letter about the abominable
situation In the Main-Bailey parking lot. We would
like to express our gratitude to the following people:
1)
To the maintenance crew for doing such a
great job of plowing, and for clearing out so many
parking spaces.
2)
To the people who seem to have a
permanently reserved place in the middle of the lot,
and never want to give it up, for being such a
tremendous help to the above in doing their job.
3)
To the people who learned their parking
skills from the back of a cereal box, for helping to
promote the smooth flow of traffic by parking in the
middle of the aisles; and to those who parked in such
a way as to prevent others parked in regulation
spaces from leaving the lot. Special recognition is
due
the owners of the following: 451-ERG,
769-NGZ, 333-MEA for their expert skill in both of
the above.
4)
And finally, to the University Police, for
being so adamant about refusing to tow away these
illegally parked cars, and for conveniently running
out of tickets to tag such cars.
We’re sure there are some who we may have left
out, but they’ll have to forgive us for overlooking

�Present and future state
of Metro Bus shelters
Have you ever been waiting for a Metro Bus in
‘less than favorable” weather conditions? If you
have, you know that the ytside walls of a Metro
Shelter can be a comforting sight. The wind can be
blowing, rain falling, snow flying, but you can still
look forward to being warm and dry in the shelter.
Right?
Actually, the true performance of these shelters
as ports in a storm tends to be less than we might
expect. Wind and rain drift through the wide open
doorways; cold air nips at your feet as it breezes
through the openings between the floor and walls;
there is often no place fcf sit down; and,
occasionally, the shelter is filled to capacity
leaving the unfortunate outside.
But there are reasons for the shelters’ design.
The open bottom prevents accumulation of garbage,
while the wide doorways facilitate wheelchair entry,
even though people in wheelchairs are still unable to
enter certain shelters.
Metro’s 70 or so shelters have been around
Buffalo since 1973. They are designed to be more
economical than the old wooden type (one of which
is still in use at the Main and Windermere loop), but
are subject to the same vandalism. Writing on and
defacement of the walls of the shelters still goes on
today. (Ten shelters have had to be removed in
various parts of the city because of repeated acts of

NATL DENTAL BOARDS

The Metro shelter was not designed by Metro
itself, though the bus company does have control
over the size of each individual shelter. Frequently,
during rush hour in heavy traffic areas, downtown,
for instance, the shelters are simply too small to be
adequate. But Metro believes that, on the average,
the shelters are large enough and that it would be
foolish to increase the size of the shelter for a short
peak of usage.
During rush hour, the bench in the middle of
the shelter located at the corner of Main and Court
Streets looks conspicuous, an obvious waste of space
which seats three where eight could stand.
Interestingly enough, the bench belongs to the city
but the shelter built around it does not. In fact, all
the outdoor benches seen around town belong to the
city and not to Metro.
According to Vito Sportelli, a public relations
man for Metro Bus, 200 more shelters are to be built
in and around Buffalo within the next three years.
These will not necessarily be installed at transfer
junctions but at points of heaviest bus traffic or at
places suggested by community action groups. The
installation of these shelters is to be 80 percent
federally funded and 15 percent state funded
(Metro will pay the remaining five percent.)
Since these proposed new shelters must comply
with federal standards, any shelter that you see being
built that is “wheelchairproof” should not go
unreported.

�On the average the cost of
higher education is going up
,

by Brenda Strayhall
Spectrum Staff Writer
Every year students seem to be
faced with increases in their bill
when returning to school. The
1977-78 figures released by the
National Association of State
Universities
and
Land-Grant
Colleges (NASULGC) show that
the median student bill at national
public universities will go up 6.7
percent this academic year. This is
almost parallel to the 6.6 percent
nse in the Consumer Price Index
(CPI)
for the most recent
12-month period.
The median total charge for
undergraduate tuition, fees and
room and board for state residents
attending state and land-grant
universities during 1977-78 will be
S2108 compared to $1976 during
the
1976-77 academic year.
Information on median student
charges was calculated by the

NASULGC from survey responses
received from
154 four-year
campuses holding membership in
the Association
For
state
residents,
undergraduate tuition and fees
alone were up 7.3 percent from
last year, from a median of $647

For
non-residents
tuition and fees
jumped an
astounding III percent from
$1474 to $1637. Total charges for
these students went up 7.1
percent,

median costs
moving from $2950 to $3 158.

Their charges did not increase
over last year’s.
The two primary reasons cited
for increases In charges were

There were only 12 campuses

only 12 had charges below S400.

Computer delays

Claims on mandatory
insurance still unpaid
Problems with the University computer system have caused
lengthy delays in the payment of claims to students covered by I he
mandatory Student Medical Insurance Program. A spokesperson for the
Student Health Service now believes that students may begin receiving
payments by December 16.
The University has employed the services this year of the
American Accidental &amp; Health Insurance Company, which, unlike the
company employed last year, requires a computerized list of the
students covered by the program before any claims can be honored. An
accurate list has not been compiled due to the delay in the reception of
student tuition payment and the indefinite extension of the deadline to
waive the health fee. The original fee waiver deadline was November
30.

The delays have affected countless numbers of students. Many
have been charged for medical services which the Health Insurance Plan
of this University should have covered. Coverage began September I.
1977, or the date of enrollment in the plan, whichever was first The
Program includes both “sickness” and "accident" benefits. Medical
expenses cover such things as hospital room and board, emergency
medicall treatment, physicians fees and such miscellaneous hospital
expenses as X-rays and lab tests.
This is the 18 month of Mandatory Student Health Insurance.
According to Sub-Board Treasurer Dennis Black, the University
instituted the program two years ago because at that time many
students who were receiving emergency treatment at local hospitals and
clinics, did not have Blue Cross or any other kind of health insurance.
President Ketler, fearing the administration would he held liable,
conferred with Student Association leaders at that time, who gave
unqualified support to the idea of some sort of Mandatory Student
Health Insurance policy, according to Assistant to the President Ron
Stein

Transition 78: whaj lies ahead
for next mayor of Buffalo?
by David Levy
Spectrum Stajj Writer

On January 1st, 1978 in the Common Council
Chambers of Buffalo City Hall, James D. Griffin will
become the next Mayor of Buffalo. But Griffin will
not walk into City Hall without knowing what is
going on within. He has appointed a 16-member
transition advisory committee to precede him into
City Hall.
The chairman of that advisory committee is
Joseph X. Martin, former examiner for the welfare
department, substitute teacher and real estate
salesman. What qualifies Martin for the chairmanship
is that he also served as Griffin’s campaign managei
in the general election Thus Martin is almost a sure
bet to become a high ranking member of the Griffin
administration.
Martin scores

In an interview with The Spectrum. Martin
refused to be pinned down on what job he might
possibly occupy. “1 don’t even know if 1 will have a
job in January,” he insisted, saying he has absolutely
no commitment from Griffin for any job.
At the moment. Marlin is busy working out of
an office provided by Mayor Makowski located in his
second floor suite. What the transition team will be
doing in the next three weeks is “looking into each

of City Hall’s departments and eventually make
recommendations to the new Mayor as to what
changes should be made,” said Martin. He did stress,
however, that the main job of the transition team is
to acquaint the new mayor with the everyday
intricasies of city government.
Faithful
Perhaps the reason Griffin has such faith in
Martin is because of the way he organized and
handled the Mayor-elect’s election campaign While
Artluu Lve is reported to have spent nearly
$200,000 on his losing bid for the city’s top job,
Griffin’s campaign made oft spending but $56,181. a
measly amount in today’s mayoral marketplace.
Martin explains this by saying, “We didn't rely
on the media." While Eve and the Democratic
machine in Buffalo were busy swamping local
airwaves with advertisements, Martin was recruiting
large numbers of volunteers “at the neighborhood
level.” He attributes the success of the campaign to
the “committed people that we had working for us."
Griffin’s election campaign did not have any paid
workers. Staff members were all volunteers
As his campaign was run on the neighborhood
level, a decision was made early to disregard a central
office. Instead, the city was divided up into four
zones
East. West, North and South A zone
chairman was later named for each of the tour
districts. A University District office was later added

Going home

Bus can get you to
bus train or plane
,

Now that the end of the semester has arrived, thoughts turn to
means of getting home for vacation. As most arrangements have
already been made to get from Buffalo to wherever home is, it is time
to consider how to get from campus to the point of departure without
spending a small fortune in cab fare, or risking your life with a student
driver of unknown ability. The only answer is by bus. Contrary to
if you check the
popular opinion, you can get there from here
schedule first. All Metro Bus schedules are available in Room 167
Fillmore in Ellicott. Metro Bus information is at 855-7211.
To get to downtown, and the new Transportation Center from
Amherst, the most comfortable method is to get the Route 44A bus on
Millersport Highway, as this bus takes only forty minutes to
downtown, and the fare is only sixty cents. Times for the Amherst
campus are shown in the schedule as Millersport/Campbell. Signal the
driver that you wish to board by waving your arm as the bus
-

—

approaches. The bus will then stop to pick you up.

From Main campus take any Main bus from Main and Kenmore
which is headed downtown. Another alternative from Main Campus is
the Route 13 A or B buses from Bailey and Highgate which also travel
on Main Street in the downtown area and terminate at the auditorium.

Planes and trains
To get to the airport board any 19-Bailey bus at Main campus and
transfer to a 24-Genesee bus to the Airport. An alternative is to go
downtown to transfer. Remember that it takes the Bailey bus about
twenty minutes to get to Genesee and the same amount of time for the
Genesee bus to come from downtown. Do not plan on boarding the
Bailey bus after the Genesee bus has left downtown because you’ll miss
the connection.
If you are taking a train, and wish to take the bus to the station,
plan on a 6/10 mile walk as the Route 17 buses from downtown to the
terminal bear little relation to the train schedule. It is necessary to walk
in from Broadway or Fillmore to the station. You can take the
19-Bailey bus and transfer to the 4-Broad way bus, or go downtown to
gransfer to the Broadway or the Route 17 bus. The other alternative is
to take the 23-Fillmore/Hertel bus from Main and Fillmore (at Bethune
Hall) and walk to the station down Paderewski Drive. Transfers are
available to the Fillmore/Hertel bus from the Main Street buses. Have a

good trip.

SPORTS
Bulls play hard —but lose
by Ron Baron
Assistant Sports Editor

For

the first

time in four

outings, the UB Bulls played solid
basketball on Saturday against
Canisius, which surprised many

critics. Canisius defeated Buffalo
at
78—73
the
Memorial
Auditorium, but not without a
dog fight.

The Bulls hustled, forced many
Canisius turnovers, rebounded
well, and post importantly,
received the necessary help from
the bench. Freshman Rodnay
McDaniel, a 5’10” guard, came off
the bench and turned in an
excellent
for
performance
Buffalo. McDaniel ignited the
offense and kept UB in the ball
game with ten points in the
second half (14 overall). McDaniel
also accounted for four assists and
two steals.
“Rodney did a great job for us
off the bench,” said coach Leo
Richardson. “As he gets better
adjusted to college ball, we expect
him to start for us.”
“For the first time, I felt
co m f ortable
the
controlling
tempo of the game,” explained
McDaniel.
Center Sam Pellom regained his
old form, as he hustled and
clogged up the middle. Pellom
grabbed a team high 12 rebounds
and also led the team in scoring
with 18 points. He also blocked
five shots, all of which came in
the second half as Buffalo began
to close down Canisms’ inside

unstoppable from the corner, as
he popped in ten points in the
first eight -minutes of action. The
junior college transfer scored 16
points in the first half to lead

both teams. Peaks ended up both
as the game’s leading rebounder
and high scorer with 17 rebounds
and 29 points.
For the first time this season,
UB began to capitalize on second
shots at the hoop and cut the
Canisius lead at halftime to six.
Forward Lloyd Devaux played his
best half of the season, fighting
for many offensive rebounds and
scoring on tipins and second
shots. He totaled 12 points and
five rebounds at the half.
Early in the second period, Ed
Johnson connected from the
comer to knot the game up at 46
all. The Golden Griffins quickly
regained the lead on a rebound
basket by freshman Ed Simmons,
and Canisius held it the rest of the
way. But it was a ball game.
Although Buffalo never took
the lead, they continued to play
well. Larry Jones, who went 0—8
in the first half, scored four field
goals in the second half to keep
UB close. Buffalo was also aided
by the hot shooting of Johnson,
McDaniel, and Pellom, who scored
11, 10, and 6 points respectively
in the last half.

Missed chance
The Bulls had one chance to
cut the lead to one point. They

had the ball with the score
71—68, but McDaniel missed and

Devaux fouled Richard Walsh of

rebound. A field goal by Brien
Toohey, followed by two free
throws by Walsh made the score

Canisi us with 1:30 left.
Larry Jones hit a jumper at the
buzzer, but it was too little too
late.
Richardson also feels his team
played well, but lost the game at
the foul line. “We missed three
consecutive foul shots and it

us,”
he
According to McDaniel, the loss
was somewhat beneficial for UB.
“Win or lose, we needed a game
like this. We showed that our club
can play team ball and can be
competitive,” he said.
The basketball Bulls put on an
exciting rally that just fell short,
as Siena College defeated Buffalo
79-78 Monday, in Clark Hall.
Buffalo, down by 18 points early
in the second half, cut the lead to
one with two seconds remaining
on a Nate Bouie tip in, but then
time ran out on the Bulls’

comeback.
For the second consecutive
game UB never quit, as guard
Rodney McDaniel excelled to
spark Buffalo’s offense. McDaniel
totaled 16 points in the game,
including four straight buckets in
the second half to lead in the
Bulls comeback attempt. Ed
Johnson led the Bulls with 23
points and Sara Pellom led all
rebounders with 14.
Siena built a nine point edge
by halftime 46-37, as Indian
center Nelson Richardson was
unstoppable in the middle. The
6’6" center tallied 19 points at
the half, connecting on short
jumpers and layups. Richardson

Fencers encouraged

by newcomers’ play
The fencing Bulls, despite losing a close match to Utica last
Saturday 11-10 were encouraged by the performances of some
inexperienced newcomers. Coach Tom Bremer was pleased that his new
fencers showed great potential and stood up well under pressure.
Tim Rogers, in his first competitive fencing match, won two of his
three matches. Rich Sherman, another first-time fencer, won tmcc
while losing his other two bouts.
The veterans were also impressive. Foil Captain Jonathan Solomon
won all three of his matches as did epee fencers Wayne Conrad and Ted
Pawlicki.
According to Solomon, if the team keeps developing at its present
rate, Buffalo should win most of its matches. Solomon also expects the
Bulls to be successful at the North Atlantics in Match.
v

Fencers want women
The team is open to women. Buffalo presently has two or three
women fencers, but need more females fora successful women's team.
The women fencers lost all of their matches against Utica women
fencers.
Saturday’s match in Utica included only foil and epee fencers. The
first sabre match will be against RIT on January 28. The sabre team,
led by captain Michael Chin, is very experienced and should help the
Bulls post a winning record. Buffalo’s next match is at RIT on January
28; their next home match is against Colgate on February 4 at 2 pjn.
The team is still accepting anyone interested in fencing. With a
brief period of training, anyone can become a relatively competent
fencer, according to Bremer. Interested persons (especially women)
should contact Bremer at 634-7521.

Usually, a lack of forward motion
constitutes stalling, but Klingman
was requiring the wiestlers to stay
forward
and make contact,
according to Hadsell
The Bulls were thoroughly
dissatisfied with the officating
(‘home cooking,’ according to
Anderson) in the enemy arena.
“We’re not crying sour grapes,”
said Michael, who was seeking his
100th career dual meet win at UB.
"I’m not saying that Penn State is
not a good team and didn’t
deserve to win, but this guy was
brutal. He wasn't going to get into
a position where the meet was in
trouble.”
The meet featured a unique
dual between two pairs of
brothers. Tom and Mike Jacoutot
ot UB wrestled PSU’s Mike and
Scott DcAugustino, The success
ot the DeAugustino brothers
upset UB’s game plan, which Tom
Siiid was "lo pick off a couple ol
and
let
the
lightweights
heavyweights finish them off.''

Parcel B project

Amherst hotel a possibility
Plans for a hotel to be constructed on the Parcel
B Project at the Amherst Campus have not been
scrapped despite the tentative construction of an
independent hotel on Maple Road, according to
President of the UB Foundation John Carter.
A commercial mall to be built on the site,
presently in the planning stages will tentatively
include a bookstore, restaurant, dry cleaning store,
bank, and theater, along with the hotel.
The Marriott Hotel Corporation has announced
plans to build a franchise inn on a site directly across
from the Amherst Campus on Maple Road. An
official from the Amherst Building Office stated that
the Corporation has not yet obtained a building
permit. “As soon as certain requirements are met,”
he said, “plans for the hotel will go through a review
in the Planning Department, which will grant final
approval if no problems are encountered.” When
asked if the area could support two hotels, the
building official replied, “It is really too early at this
point to tell.”
Carter stated that a hotel will inevitably be built
on the Parcel B site, saying “it will be great to have,
although it is not the most important thing

planned.” The UB Foundation has tested the market
to find out what types of commercial establishments
would be interested in opening shops at the mall,
according to Carter. The Foundation is now in the
process of interviewing architects to design a master
plan to determine lease costs and shell space costs
for stores to operate in the mall. The plans are
presently in a three to four month hold position,
until an architect is found.
“The construction of another hotel won’t alter
our plans to put up a hotel at Parcel B,” Carter said.
“A hotel will be great for the University.” Vice
President for Facilities Planning John Telfer stated
that although it may be too early to tell, the area can
probably support two hotels. “There is a need for a
hotel at Parcel B, so the plans for it will not be
scrapped,” added Telfer.
“Under ideal conditions,” Carter revealed,
“groundbreaking could occur in the spring, with the
possible opening of some stores in June. Money
received from rental costs of store space will be used,
first of all, for construction costs according to
Carter. He predicted that profits would not be made
from the mall for a period of four to ten years

Women’s Studies College;
moving towards a disaster

Spectrum Staff Writer

The delicate balance of the state of the Women’s
Studies College (WSC) was tipped in its disfavor on
November 30, when the College was denied a
replacement line for Professor Ellen Dubois, who is
taking a leave in January.
Dubois, who was awarded a Rockefeller’s
Humanities
Fellowship
through
for January
December, 1978, is one of only three faculty
members in the Women’s Studies component of the
Department of American Studies. Thus the loss of
this line will drastically cut the program’s strength at
a time when members feel faculty is desperately
needed.
The predicament is further compounded by the
fact that Professor Lillian Robinson of WSC is
presently also on leave. Offered a Rockefeller’s
Humanities Fellowship for the academic year of
1977-78, as well as a visiting professorship in
American Studies at the Sorbonne, she has taken an
extended leave of two years. Although she has been
temporarily replaced with the appointment of
Professor Ann Nihlen, this line also will be in
jeopardy next fall.
WSC recognition

The awards signify great recognition for the
Women’s Studies College, the only unit in the nation
to receive more than one Rockefeller grant. It is the
largest and one of the oldest colleges of its kind in
the United States and has served as a model for
similar programs at SUNY at Albany, the University
University.
Syracuse
and
of Pennsylvania,
Additionally,
members of the college have
contributed to the development of the National
Women’s Studies Association, founded in January of
1 977, and have served as hosts for the most recent
meeting of the Chancellor’s Advisory Committee for
Women’s Studies. Active in the immediate
community as well, the college is involved in
programs at the Y.W.C.A. and the Women’s Center
downtown. While these endeavors have served to
broaden the role and emphasis of WSC, they require
a great deal of time and energy on the part of
participating faculty. Members of the college feel
that if they lose even one faculty line, the quality of
the programs offered will be reduced substantially.

Lack of funding
The onus for the acquisition of a line for WSC
lies with the offices of the Provost of Arts and
Letters, Dr. George Levine, and the Vice President of
Academic Affairs, Dr. Ronald F. Bunn. Neither was
available for comment after repeated attempts to
contact them. A spokesperson for Arts and Letters

has claimed that the circumstances reflect a lack of

resources rather than a lack ot commitment to WSC.
She explained that while everyone was impressed by
the need for the college, the necessary funding was
not available.
Director of American Studies, Dr. John Dings,
defined the situation by saying that whenever a
conflict involving budgetary matters arises, it
becomes a function of priorities. “They will say yes
we have the money, no we don’t have the money.
The University does not want us to know the extent
to which one department is in competition with
another for its resources.” Dings also felt that the
real issue was one of the administration of faculty
lines. “Women’s Studies College is victimized by a
University policy that makes it impossible to have
automatic replacement. This policy won’t work for
small programs,” he said. Thus, as spokespersons for
the college noted, the very existence of WSC is at
best, precarious.

Faculty and students protest
Since the refusal of a faculty line for the college
was announced, students and faculty within WSC
have allied to publicize the seriousness of the
situation. Their position, as WSC coordinator Sherri
Darrow related, is that since 1972, there have been
three guaranteed faculty lines within the Department
of American Studies set aside solely for the Women’s
Studies component. Subsequently, additional faculty
positions for any further growth have not been
available. “Now we have to fight just to maintain the
program,” she declared.
The College’s plight is a direct result of priorities
within the University system, according to Darrow
Emphasizing

felt the
a line was a slight to women
presently studying here. The forfeiture of the
Women’s Studies prospectus, which developes the
feminist viewpoint on a consistent, continual basis,
would create a great void within the educational
organization at this University, she asserted. Other
spokespersons revealed fears that such action would
set a precedent for the denial of funds to other
relatively new or small programs. Undergraduate
Barbara Collins remarked, “It’s not as though
apologies have to be given for this program at all. In
all our classes, student response has been enormous.
I can’t imagine that in other, larger departments.”
WSC is scheduled to undergo a re-chartering
process in January. Faculty participation is necessary
for a continued charter. Members of the college hope
that as people within and around the University
community are informed of the circumstances
involving the deposition of faculty lines, the college
will obtain support necessary to win its fight for
existence

But The Pub did less business and University Police sent its Special
Problems force of six men to patrol the halls of Wilkeson Quad and to
beef up its normal observation of the Pub area.
Rumor had it that Jeanne Dixon had predicted a bloody murder
on December 10, 1977 in a dormitory connected with the letter “F” of
a large northeastern university. Sometime last week, grafitti scrawled in
black magic marker promising just that appeared in the Wilkeson
elevator. Wilkeson is the “F” quad. Univeristy Police and the Amherst
Police were quickly notified. The alleged Dixon prediction was never
documented in print by anyone.
“Some of the rumors around here were outrageous,” said Wilkeson
Head Resident John Smith. He reported that it was a “quiet night” in
Wilkeson and “not unusual.” One Wilkeson resident estimated that
about 50 people slept in other dorms for the night. ‘1 had my tennis
racket near my bed,” she commented, adding that “large scale co-ed
sleeping and a lot of parties” occurred.
Another resident noted “an air of being scared,’ saying that many
people stayed in groups and that “everyone was talking about it.”

A normal Saturday night in Wilkeson Quad it was not, but
fortunately nothing happened, and so a normal Monday morning it is.

The Blizzard revisited
from afrozen Bluebird

Is history repeating itself? As far as anyone
riding bus 164 at 12:15 on Friday was concerned,
the Blizzard of ’77 Part II had arrived. High winds
and heavy snowfall combined to produce zero
visibility. The normal 20-mmute bus ride from Ridge
Lea took 40 minutes instead.

Shown is Hayes Hall slowly sinking into the blinding snow Friday. The building
reappeared Saturday, but the two students contemplating its future did not.
Bare
trees watched the show,

spering no sentiment thereon.

Friday’s blizzard left motorists, students, professors and state
employees stranded. Taking their own initiative, 25 or so Clement
and Goodyear students alleviated possible massive traffic tie-ups on
Bailey Avenue in front of the dormitories when they aided
motorists who were hopelessly struggling to work their way up the
incline. Braving 40 mile an hour winds, students pushed dozens of
cars up the snow-clogged street for more than two hours. At this
time, The Spectrum wishes to express its admiration to those
students who unselfishly gave their time and energy and thus
averted what could have become an emergency situation.

Students brought dogs with them Friday
afternoon to tend against the packs of hungry
wolves that roamed the Main Street Campus until
tha snow stopped falling. The two students in the

Some riders called it a challenge, others an
adventure. Most of the students remained in good
humor; in fact, the blizzard seemed to bring out a
wit almost as biting as the cold. Most of the jokes
were aimed at the unlikely fact of having the bus and
its approximately 40 riders snowbound for the
remainder of the storm. Two students, Gary
Reitmeier and Leeann lodice, suggested satirically
that “the bus lines should equip each bus with a
supply of rations for the winter or have standing
orders to put into any place that serves food
”

What was obvious to all on the bus was that the
traction was getting worse as the bus neared the
Main Street campus. Several times on the Bailey hill

the bus was barely able to keep up its forward
layer of ice covered with
loose snow, offering nothing for the tires to bite
into. Surmounting that problem, the bus crossed
Main Street only to confront a line of cars and
trucks either reduced to a snail’s pace or vainly
spinning their wheels. Several times a group of

Enlightenment and its effect on the construction

students led by one Pat Boyle ventured forth to push
stuck cars and keep the path open for the bus.

Campus no better

Entering the campus the students started to
breathe a little easier, but then it happened. The bus
got stuck! It simply could not negotiate the snow
choked roads. Only after some expert maneuvering
by the driver, who handled the large bus like a small
car, was the vehicle set free. Certainly now we were
safe.
But no sooner had we entered the Diefendorf
Loop, than we were swarmed by a mob of freezing,
snow-covered students who mistook the Bluebird
bus as their transport back to a warm Ellicott. Hands
started to appear in the crack in the doors, but none
were able to sustain its grip in view of the fact that
the bus had not stopped yet. Around the loop we
went, leaving a large group of frustrated students
behind.
As we neared our destination everyone prepared
for a quick departure hoping to reach the safety of
some warm place before the storm reduced them to
little more than breathing snow people.

TB epidemic in Governors?
Putting an end to the rumors
by Marshall Rosenthal

Director of University Health Services, Dr M

tuberculosis (TB) epidemic could run rampant at this
University. Worries concerning the spread of IB
arose when it was discovered that a female student

�Area *hardship 9 cited

NFG price increase attacked
New York State s Public Service Commission

(PSC) began hearings last Tuesday concerning a 2
percent rate increase requested by National Fuel Gas
(NFG). NFG insists that the rate-hikes are necessary
to the “economic well being of the company,” but
this contention was sharply criticized by attorney
Paul Hudson of the New York Public Interest
Research Group (NYPIRG).
Hudson’s claim was that any increase in fuel
rates would be a “distinct hardship on this area’s
residents, who have already had to pay an
exhorbitant amount in full costs due to last year’s
harsh Winter.” He further stated that there was every
indication to believe, that “this winter is going to be
a bad one as well.” Hudson pointed out that outside
of City Hall’s Common Council chambers, a heavy
snowstorm was belting the city in the same way
storms had sent heating costs soaring last year. He
reminded the Commission that a large number of
NFG customers had their service cut off earlier this
vear due to an inability to pay their high heating
bills.
The hearing, held in the Council Chambers, was
sparcely attended because of the snow storm raging
outside. Another problem was that the PSC insists
on holding its hearings during the day time, causing
problems for people who work during those hours.

Goodyear Hall blaze
causes some damage
Fire blazed through a dormitory room in Goodyear Hall
Thursday night, destroying the occupant’s bed, chair, refrigerator,
books, and some of his clothes. No one was seriously injured,
although two University Police officers were taken to Sister’s
Hospital for observation because of smoke inhalation
The residents were evacuated at approximately 7:30 p.m. after
the room and wing filled with black smoke. Although still under
investigation, the cause of the fire is rumored to be that candles lit,

in observance of the Jewish holiday, Chanukah, ignited the
furniture in the room. The official report states that “there was not
extensive fire damage, although there was extensive smoke
damage.”
The chain of events began when a resident of the floor saw
smoking curling under the door. A Resident Advisor opened the
door and checked to see that no one was in it, but fire extinguishers
could not be used to overcome the smoke. Four trucks of the
Buffalo Fire Department arrived approximately 12 minutes after
the call came in, at approximately 7:35 p.m. and proceeded to put
out the fire, which was not under control when the firemen arrived.
Although the full extent of the damage has not been
determined, water used in fighting the fire seeped into the two
adjacent rooms and leaked through to the third floor.

Faculty for Women's Studies
Women's Studies College, at this University, the largest
women's studies unit at any school in the country, is in
trouble. Ironic is that its possible demise should be brought
on by the outstanding academic achievement of two of its
faculty members; blind and unresponsive would be this
University's administration if it does not take immediate
steps to restore fully this outstanding academic program.
Women at the College fought with Vice President for
Academic Affairs Ronald Bunn for months last year and
won a one year replacement for Lillian Robinson, who
received not only a Rockefeller Award but also a visiting
professorship at the Sorbonne in Paris, and will thus not
return until September 1979. Ellen DuBois also received a
Rockefeller Award and will be on leave from January 1978
until January 1979.
No funds have as yet been granted by the Administration
to insure a replacement for DuBois. Thus, Women's Studies
full-time faculty, which numbered three and comes from the
American Studies Department, has effectively been cut by
one third. Approximately 25 courses were offered by
Women's Studies this semester, taught by faculty, members
of the community, graduate students and, in some cases,
undergraduates. A course such as 'Women and Alcohol,"
taught by an expert in the field from the Buffalo community
must have some faculty supervision, as must all seven or
"Women in
eight sections of the introductory course
are
taught
by
which
Contemporary Society"
—

undergraduates.

A bare minimum of three full-time faculty members is
definitely needed to at least allow the College to function as
it may, which has been very successfully. A letter requesting
another meeting between American Studies and the office of
the Vice President to discuss the cut lines has been sent to
Bunn. Women's Studies officials are eagerly awaiting a
response to that letter
Bunn and the Provost of Arts and Letters, George
Levine, should make their decision, if they haven't made it
already, this semester regarding funding for an additional
faculty line, and the University public should know of that
decision.
The alternative forces of this University must join hands
to appeal to what is the majority of people here to save
Women's Studies College. A plea from and for such a
nationally recognized program should not fall on deaf ears.

Womens Studies threatened again
To the Editor
There is a program on this campus that is one of
oldest and largest of its kind nationally.
Throughout its history it has been a leader in its field
and has been a model for other such programs in the
United States. It has been committed to fighting for
women and against sexism in an effort to transform
the University to meet our needs. This program is
Women’s Studies College. We are telling you this
because Women’s Studies College is facing a crisis.
This is the present situation Women's Studies
College has had the valuable input and partticipation
of 3 faculty members from the Department of
American Studies since 1972. Last year 2 of these
women, Lillian Robinson and Ellen DuBois received
recognition
Rockefeller
awards
of
their
in
outstanding work in the field of Women’s Studies. In
addition, Lillian Robinson received
a visiting
professorship at the University of Pans, the
Sorbonne. This means that Prof. Robinson, who
assumed the Paris position in Sept 1977, will be
gone until Sept. 1979. Prof. Ellen DuBois will be on
leave from Jan. 1978 to Jan. 1979.
We fought for 5 months last spring to receive a
one year replacement for Lillian Robinson. At this
time we have been denied the funds with which to
hire a replacement for Ellen DuBois. This means a
1/3 cut in our faculty resources as of Jan. ’78. In
addition, we
have no euarantee that Lillian

22 times I’ve typed the letters F-X-l-L-F at the
top of a virgin white sheet of paper and spewed forth
my at times promiscuous point of view
In that time a lot of previously unbuttered
popcorn has passed through my brain, that is I
learned a lotta new things. In half a year of staining
this rag, my perceptions of this University have been
altered, influenced and amended innumerable times.
I have also 1 might add, had a helluva time.
I now have a much clearer view of what a
University really is, or should be, and what this
particular University is, or should be. What truly
astounds me is how many undergraduates here don’t
even scratch the surface of this school. Far, far too
many of you walk aimlessly around the grounds, not
bothering to even knock let alone breeze your way
in. You admire the view, pay your bill, meet your
girlfriend in the parking lot, step on the gas, and
you’re off each day, leaving the University
untouched and undisturbed. Alright, so many of you
read the personals in The Spectrum, hoping some
secret admirer is gonna put one in for you. That does
not constitute “involvement.”
1 hate to say this, but you know who you are
Most of you are commuters. You had good marks
and a lot of friends in high school, whom you still
cling to. You go to your lectures, perhaps stop off
for some studying at the library, maybe grab a cup
of coffee in the cafeteria and leave, vanished into the
suburban wilds. Well, the things I’ve absorbed by (I
hate to say this also) “getting involved” cannot be
found in Diefendorf 148, or the Bailey lot.
Most dorm students are almost as guilty. You
grab a lot of buses, you know a lot of people on
your floor, you go to IRC movies, you study a lot,
you eat a lot of onion rolls, your biggest weekend
now.

Robinson’s replacement will be funded for the
second year of her leave. Obviously this jeopardizes
the Women’s Studies program on this campus. It is
ironic that this recognized excellence has resulted in
the undermining of our program
Three Women’s Studies faculty in American
Studies is the bare minimum necessary to maintain
the quality of our Women’s Studies program. We feel
that it should be a priority for the University to
guarantee this minimum. Therefore, we are asking
for a meeting with Ronald Bunn, Vice President of
Academic Affairs, before the end of this semester.
We are prepared to fight for this basic guarantee
We need your support in this struggle. Sign our
petitions and tell your friends. (Petitions should be
picked up at and returned to WSC, 108 Winspear and
376 Spaulding.) If we are unable to get the necessary
support of the University after meeting with the
Vice President, we may have to continue into the
spring semester. We will keep you posted of new
developments or contact WSC for more information.
Help us exert whatever pressure on the
administration that is needed to guarantee that
Women’s Studies will be able to exist beyond June

�FEEDBACK

Guest Opinion
by Raju
Third World Student Association

In my last letter, “Speek Engleesh
An
explanation”, I maintained that the problem raised
by Judy Abramowitz is linked to the nature of
universities today and the larger social constraints
that go to characterize it.
Now, 1 am faced with two questions. The
first, is why does education receive such a shabby
treatment. The second, is why there are a number
of foreign students and foreign people in this
country, I think both these questions are closely
interrelated and are determined by the role of the
United States in the present day world. To many it
may appear that I am raising an external, unrelated
political issue now. But I believe that this fact
-

determines the basic characteristics of the whole
of the American society including the university.
Consequently,
understanding

without

developing

of this question, we

an
cannot attempt

at any real solutions to the problems at hand. Let

me explain how.
The pattern of a relatively large foreign
student present in universities is not peculiar to
this University alone. It is a common feature of
almost all of the major universities in this country.

Everyone knows that most foreign students come
countries. The developed
countries can provide for their younger population
relatively better educational opportunities, job
opportunities, and a better standard of life. All
these are more or less absent in the
underdeveloped countries. For centuries, the
countries of the present-day underdeveloped world

from underdeveloped

have been robbed of their resources and wealth as
colonized countries. And even today, most of
them continue to face economic plunder by the
superpowers of the world through maintenance of
various forms of jieo-colonial relations. This has
fundamentally affected the nature of their
development, contributed to their backwardness,
and eliminated the possible building in their
countries of self-reliant economies.
Largely on the plunder of this underdeveloped
world, the wealth of this empire and of the
developed world, has been built. So it is no
wonder that people from colonized countries
choose to go to the countries of their colonizers in
order to better their lives. Prior to the second
World War, Britain was the dominant imperialist
power. So people from South Asia, from Atnca,
from the West Indies, etc., flocked to Britain
Since World War 11, the United States has
decisively displaced Britain as a global power And
now more people from all over the world dash
towards the United States.
What is the significance of this phenomenon
to the U S ? A number of students who come here
are from the elite segments of their countries.
While some of them end up staying here, the
remaining return to their countries to occupy
positions of power and influence. If one looks at
the people who wield political power, those who
are entrenched in the state
and in
judicial structures, those holding powers within
controlling
armed
and
those
forces,
the
educational and financial institutions in many of
these underdeveloped countries one finds that
they belong to this elite segment and many have
spent parts of their lives in the imperialist
countries.
And they serve the interests of
imperialism and form the key elements in the
formal structures of present-day neo-colonialism.

Secondly, those who come to this country
either as students or as professionals are those who
have had basic training and education in their own
countries. So the

United States can get a ready

supply of trained personnel (even if some of them
may not be adequate

people.

Also,

foreigners come at cheap “prices” and so it is more
profitable to have them. The “education industry”

could carry on research and “teaching” with cheap
labor of foreign students. The public health system
(which largely utilizes foreigners, at least in NY
State) could run with minimally paid foreign

Health Services unnoticed
To the Editor

doctors and industrial jobs could be taken up by
lowly paid foreign engineers and managerial
personnel. Also it helps to keep the wages or
salaries down for all working people, the American
population included, given the large labor pool
made of available foreigners. Then there are the
foreigners who come to this country as unskilled
laborers. They are being utilized to do unsafe,
often inhumane jobs at measely wages, denied the
rights to organize and harassed perpetually by the
state. To the powers in control of U.S. economy,
the economic advantages are so large that they are
glad to keep a section of permanent “illegal
immigrants” in this country.
While the imperialist interests have everything
to gam as I have cited before, the Third World
countries are continuing to be plundered and the
more active internal economy of the U.S. has
begun to assume parasitic features. I mentioned
befory that if only the vast resources, wealth and
people of the Third World countries could be used
for their own development, they would not have
remained underdeveloped. Similarly, if the capital
exported and invested abroad could be invested
within the U.S., and if U.S. stops its utilization of
cheap labor resources from abroad, while it may
not lead
to maximum profits for American
monopolies, it will boost the economic conditions
of
American people,
and
create
immense
educational opportunities and training facilities for
American people.
Every action in the short term interests of
U.S. imperialism is thus inherently against the
short term and long term interests of the American
people and the peolpe of the world. I don’t think
it is difficult for anyone to see clearly that the lack
of adequate American students opting for higher
education in engineering, in sciences, etc., the poor
quality university education, restricted entry of
students into universities, professional schools,
etc., are bound to unfavorably affect the future
development of this country. As long as U.S.
unperialism
finds the existing situation most
profitable, it would not have to worry about these
features developing internally within
parasitic
American society
The most important fact that 1 want others to
understand is that it is the global role of the
United States as an imperialist power that created
the present situation, and it is the same global role
that needs now the continuance of this situation.
As long as the U S. exists as an imperialist power,
this situation will not change whether it affects
ordinary American public or not.
In the recent years more and more American
people are beginning to feel in one way or another
the internal impact of the role of the U S as an

and save themselves from being the fundamental

doctors because there is a quota of 1000 positions
for minorities, a worker in a Buffalo plant thinks
that foreign imports is the sole cause for his layoff,
some others think foreign students, professionals
and illegal immigrants are the problems, etc. Given
this situation, U S. imperialism has nothing to be
displeased with as long as people do not identify it
as the principal target of attack.
Taken as a whole, the U S. can in no way exist
as an imperialist power and yet, at the same time
exclude the presence
of large numbers of
foreigners Consequently, what may happen is that
a single department, say Chemistry, a single
faculty, for example Natural Sciences, or even a
single university, such as this one can improve
restrictions

foreigners. Or, in a single
profession, like medicine, restrictions may be

Only then. can countries build self-reliant

We, the Registered Nurses who man the
University Health Service on the Amherst Campus,
would like to respond to the current rash of
seemingly derogatory articles in The Spectrum
concerning the lack of proper health care at this
campus.
We respect and support any efforts directed
toward obtaining an ideal Health Service here.
However, it appears that much of our present
services have gone unnoticed.
Is this office incompetent simply because it is
staffed “only by nurses”? Perhaps we could hear
from students who have come to us for care and
never had to go any further for treatment. Judging
by our statistics they have to be numerous.
We are fortunate in having a well-equipped
facility, open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week,
whenever the dorms are open. Many colleges and
universities do not have any health personnel on
duty after 5 p.m. daily. Students at these schools
must find their own way to the nearest Emergency
Room of a hospital. How about many of our
students who live in apartments too far away to
come to the Health Service at night? At least each of
our campuses has some health professional on duty
at all times. Our standing orders cover the usual
complaints of college age students, and there is
always a physician and a psychiatrist who can be
reached by phone for consultation.
Despite inferences to the contrary, we are as
prompt as humanly possible in responding to
emergency calls. This is possible due to the
cooperation of the Campus Police and a radio
transmitter in our office for fast communication.
Students at Amherst are fortunate in having a
Health facility under their very roof. Does your
doctor at home make house calls evenings, nights,
weekends, and holidays?
Why is our chief problem at Amherst that of
obtaining transportation off the campus for the sick
or injured student continuously overlooked? tven if
there were a physician here we would be no more
effective in obtaining needed transportation.
If these comments indicate we are looking for
occasional praise, rather than constant criticism, that
is our intention

of the officers before this letter was written and our
concern is not how much money is spent, but on
what worthwhile effort. BSU is part of the
minorities on this cmapus, but there are others.
We can not accept their reason for College of
Urban Studies co-sponsoring because Mr. Rivera is
half-Jewish, since this whole matter is as he has
stated “not a racial issue.”
PODER is a functioning organization with many
varied events and many co-sponsorships with other

and a waste of time and effort.
We are a workable organization and open to

you contract any individual without being assured of

Now let us get to the crux of the matter. We
know that Mr. Rivera is half-Jewish and Puerto

that no one knew he was Puerto Rican. Come on
now, who are we kidding? With a name like Rivera?

Fresh and Ught Barry
To the Editor.

This is in response to the letter appearing in
Friday’s The Spectrum, “dumping” on weatherman
Barry Lillis. I would like to ask Mr. O’Brien if he
ever, but ever, laughs. Does he ever, in a wild
abandon, dance, sing, make silly faces, or anything
else? What kind of person cannot understand, even
enjoy, a little levity?
From my observation and comparison of the
three major weather telecasts, Mr. Lillis’ presentation
is one of the most informative and comprehensive
presentations of the three mqor networks. Extensive
explanation of weather patterns and exactly what is
causing the weather is the rule. The satellite map
isn’t simply flashed before the t.v. audience for 2
seconds, but is shown in motion, depicting the
currents and cloud motion. Forecasts are given for
specific areas of the country, not just the general
Buffalo area. The proven correctness of the
forecasts, or error, are no matter, for weathercasting
is not a perfected art, for Barry, Keven, or Tom. No
other station, especially Channel .7, gives such
comprehensive coverage. If Mr. O’Brien cannot
tolerate the comic relief, then perhaps he should
either ignore it, concentrating on the facts given, or
watch Channel 7, where he can see Tom cavort in
the parking lot. Only Channel 4 can approximate
such extensive coverage, and much of their time is
taken up with “Weather with a Beat,” which, while
interesting, does nothing to inform me of local
events weatherwise. Barry’s fresh and light
presentation of the weather, along with its factual
content, is highly desirable. If Mr. O’Brien is one of
those who “hates bad weather” as I suspect, he

surely should appreciate levity.
Especially during the blizzard, Mr. Lillis’
and an
presentations were a delight to behold
event to look forward to. At one point during the
3rd or 4th day of the blizzard, when being
housebound was no longer a novelty, and many faces
were drawn and downcast, Barry urged us to go to
our mirrors, make a silly face, and try not to laugh. I
tried it. It worked
I laughed for several minutes
over the ridiculousness of it all. A tried and true
remedy for the “downs”
laughter.
One of the contributing factors to Barry’s fresh
presentations seems to be that he likes weather.
Weather in general with ail its many ramifications. I,
too, like weather. I’m sure Mr. O’Brien simply finds,
it an inconvenience, or worse. I’m tired of all the
complainers who let snow, rain, or anything but
sunshine ruin their days and lives. Why can’t they
find beauty in fresh snow, gentle rain, a restful
cloudy day? Why can’t they be awed by nature’s
power? Barry and 1 can. And I’m sure the “friendly”
people of Buffalo, who may not be able to, can
appreciate it a little more when presented with
intelligence and a smattering of clowning.
The point being made here is that there is
absolutely nothing wrong with a little light, comedy

relief. It makes life more bearable sometimes.
Anyone who considers themselves too “city
sophisticated” to relax and make faces for the sheer
joy of it once in a while is a sorry individual indeed.
You, Mr. O’Brien, who have overlooked the
information presented because of affrontery by
Barry’s comedy, have my sympathy.
Pam Morgan

To the Editor
Though I was generally impressed by the
fairness and accuracy of your news article on the
present situation at Stony Brook’s newspaper,
Statesman, I was puzzled by one reference that your
newspaper made. The name A.J. Troner as the
appelation of a former managing editor is no more
unlikely than A.J. Liebling as a famous critic; A.J.
Foyt as a famous racing car driver or A.J, Carter as a
not so famous Newsday reporter. 1 imagine that if
the author of this piece who happens to be named
Rosen lived in Waco, Texas, then that would be an
“unlikely name.”

Dorm students ripped
To the Editor:

In Friday’s mail every dorm student who is a
customer of the phone company received a letter
stating that their services can be suspended for the
Christmas Holiday simply by sending back the

enclosed card. The letter then stated that students
would not be charged the 312.75 monthly service,
but would be credited for the days their phone was
off. The letter continues that the charge for
restoration is $10.00 (subject to the pending rate

change).
The reason for suspending service is given as
preventing unauthorized use of the phone while
students are away.
Considering that the dorms are locked during
vacation, and students themselves would be hard
pressed to find a way to get into their own rooms,
the chances of someone using the phone seems slim.
However, in past years dorm students have
disconnected their phones because it resulted in a
savings ranging from approximately $5.00 to $8.00.
This year the rate for restoring service has increased
from $2.33 on the Amherst Campus and from $3.50
on Main Street, to $10.00. (1 spoke to the woman
responsible for the letter and she said that this
increase “only reflects the inflationary costs of the
New York Phone Company.”)
The point is that anyone who returns the card
now wiltyfind themselves paying MOR£ than they

woulcTif-tliey simply lAavd fheir photiw'mrifieo on! If
a student has the phone disconnected for three
weeks or less, he or she will pay at least $1.00 more
than they would normally pay. This figure is based

the $10.00 restoration charge. The phone
company’s representative hinted that the “subject to
change” phrase actually means that the charge will
probably be more. So most likely everyone who has
their service disconnected will pay at least $14.00
on

instead of $12.75.

Don’t give Ma Bell another chance to rip you
off! Before you return the card saying you request
your service be suspended, calculate the charges and
be sure that you won’t be paying more than you
have to pay.

Does Food Service care?

To the Editor.
Barry Lillis is Channel 2’s colorful weather
reporter, whose antics entertain and appall his
Buffalo audience. He is also the center of much
controversy, as shown in four past issues of The
Spectrum. Why?

(643-anything) is available for this service.
If Barry Lillis’ actions intimidate Mr. O’Brien
and his supporters, they have a variety of other
choices to refer to. In my opinion, Barry Lillis is an
interesting speaker, who knows his business. His job
is to help TV2’s ratings, and'he does.
Finally, 1 can’t see the relevance between a
single weather reporter and the potential of Buffalo
Next time, try a topic that is more important.

1 can see the point of arguing over anti-abortion
laws, or ID card mistakes, but a simple Buffalo

informed. There are three local television stations

Zany Lillis
To the Editor.
This letter is offered in response to William
O’Brien, whose comments were printed in the
December 2 issue of The Spectrum. Mr. O’Brien
declared that Barry Lillis is a “jackass.” O’Brien is
entitled to his opinion, but I feel he is taking life too
seriously.

Mr. Lillis is an experienced announcer and
weatherman who was born and raised in the Buffalo
area. He does the weather on Channel 2 every night
except Saturday. He is a delight to watch for those
of us who appreciate a blend of weather information

improved WGR TV2’s ratings, and if you will note,

Channel 7 has added a similar character, one Don
Polec. The three news stations in Buffalo are always
in competition with each other and I feel this affords
the viewer to select the program that best suits his
taste. For those of you who enjoy news with the
serious touch, tune in Channel 4. Channel 7 offers
the weather outside, where you can see Tom Jolls
freeze to death. For those who enjoy informative

bet.

To the Editor
Can the readers of The Spectrum handle one
more Food Service critique? Certainly one of the big
topics at dinner time in the dorms is food quality

how “I’ve gotta get off Food Service next
semester.” But 1 wonder if these people have noticed
and

the new innovations instituted in recent weeks in
those hallowed halls of hunger.
For example, how about the trial extension of
dinner hours in some halls to T 7:00 pm? Just what
some of us have been pushing for for a long time!
Also, is it my imagination
or
is there a
disproportionate number of “special dinners” now as
the end of the semester draws near? And “deli
sandwishes”!! Probably the best thing to happen to
lunch since the invention of the napkin! There are
even considerate little notices on the tables now
reminding us that, should we miss a meal, we needn’t
go hungry.
This all seems very noble, of course, but
remember, it won’t be long ’til you have to sign that
paper and fork over those bucks for next semester.
Could there be a connection here? Might FVS want
to leave you with a better-than-nauseated impression
when you have to decide whether or not to be on
contract next semester?
Actually, I hope that my suspicions are
completely unfounded; that Food Service really
cares? that their interests are in student service and
satisfaction. I can’t wait to see how many of these
improvements continue next semester.

�CFC sponsors One-

to-One for retarded

The theme is “The Holidays.” People wander around the brightly
lit Fargo Cafeteria, one group clustered around a piano, another
surrounding a girl dressed as Raggedy Ann who is making balloons into
hats, animals, or a mixture of both. Later, student magician Abe Steier
performs, blending the arts of mime and sleight-of-hand. There is a
Santa Claus skit featuring “A1 Tiano and his Elves.” When dinner is
served, it is suddenly Thanksgiving: luckless turkeys, taken in the very
act of congratulating themselves for seeing the dawn of December first,
adorn the table.
That was the agenda for the Clifford Furnas College One-to-One
for the Mentally Retarded, held last Sunday at Fargo Quad. About 40
mentally retarded children of all ages participated. They came from
families and foster homes all over Buffalo. The event might have more
aptly been titled “Two-to-One” since 70 CFC students were involved,
each pair having been assigned to one child as companions for the
afternoon.
‘It’s worthwhile’
Cathy Yalowich, an Occupational Therapy major, was Program
Coordinator for this year’s One-to-One. Also involved was Dave
Weitzman. The cooks who prepared the dinner were Steven Jayson (a
chef at the Hyatt Hotel in Toronto), Kathy Scunk and Carol
Yerkovich.
“The program was originated to give students in health-related
professions some volunteer experience in working with the mentally
retarded,” said Yalowich. The program is four years old, and was
organized through the efforts of Margie Liu (nee Eichel). She contacted
local schools who gave her the names of parents that might be
interested in such a program for their children. The One-to-One has
been growing ever since, and now also includes a program for senior
citizens.
This year’s One-to-One was funded mostly by CFC student fees.
Area supermarkets donated food. “We try to plan original programs,”
Yalowich said. “This year is no exception.” Volunteer Sylvia Brown
commented, “Working on the One-to-One is the most worthwhile thing
I’ve done all year.”

The Basic Kducational Opportunity Grant
Program (BFOG), which began in 1972, is a Federal
student financial aid program designed to assist
students in the continuation of their training and
education after high school.
The purpose of BEOG is to provide students
with a “foundation” of financial aid to help defray
the costs of post-secondary education such as
tuition, fees, room, board, books, supplies, and
miscellaneous expenses. To be eligible to receive a
Basic Grant, a student must attend an eligible
institution, must be enrolled in an eligible program,
and be a United States citizen or on an immigrant

visa.

For
the
1978-79
academic
all
year,
undergraduate students may apply for BFOG.
Student eligibility is based on financial need and is
determined by a formula applied consistently to all
applicants. The formula is developed by the U.S.
Office of Education and is reviewed by Congress on
an annual basis, and is used solely for purposes of
determining the amount of a student’s Basic Grant
award.

To Iowa and back
Basic Grants are determined on the basis of
financial need and on scholastic performance. The

University calculates the amount that the student is
eligible to receive, according to his index number
and the applicable budgeted expenses. This year the
amount of the grant ranges from $226 to $1400.
Next year the maximum is expected to be raised to
$1600. The legislation which authorizes the Basic
Grant Program stipulates that a Basic Grant award
cannot exceed one-half of the costs of education.
The BEOG awards are grants and do not require
repayment.
It is now possible to request a BEOG grant on
the Financial Aid Form, but regular applications are
still available. It takes between four to six weeks for
a student to receive an answer on his eligibility from
the BEOG Office in Iowa. The answer, known as the
Student Eligibility Report, has to be turned into the
Financial Aid Office of the school which the student
plans to attend. In the SUNY system, the checks
have to be vouchered by the individual universities,
are generated in Albany, and sent to the Office of
Student Accounts for distrubition to the individual
student It takes at least six weeks for such a process.
Grants are disbursed in two installments, one for the
Fall and one for the Spring.
It is suggested that if students are interested in
receiving their checks by the first day of classes in
September, they should send their application form
to Iowa no later than May 1st. Application forms for
1978-79 will be available in the Office of Financial
Aid starting December 19. Forms should not be
mailed to Iowa before January 1st.

Proposed bills focus
on police test methods
For the past three years the
New York State Legislature has
been working on six separate bills
designed to standardize and
increase the testing given to police
officers.
The first of these bills was
introduced into the State Senate
in 1973 and has since suffered the
fate of each of the other bills; all
are still in committee.
Each of the bills involves a
different method of testing,
from
ranging
computerized
multiple choice tests to a form of
testing in the presence of a trained
psychologist. Such psychological
tests include measurements of
time,
reaction
irritability,
temperment and even a method of
identifying many of an individual
person’s fears. Other bills include
applying these tests to people
equally in spite of differences in
ethnic background, sex or simply
whether applicants happen to
have a bad day on the day the test
is given.
Police officers in general have
not been too keen on the idea of
such testing. “There’s no way that

Falls police
officer

Andrew Szedlowski. “They test us
to death even now. First you have
to pass the Civil Service exam,
then a physical, and then all of
the tests that they give at the
police academy. What more do
they want?” lamented another
officer Joseph (•ratlalia.

“I’ll tell what they want,”
replied an unidentified police
officer. “They want us all to be
social workers again, not cops.
They should leave that job to
some one trained for it and not
expect us to have some kind of
natural talent for it.” The officers
present felt a kind of double
standard existed because the bills
specified that the tests be fair to
all, regardless of race or sex. “You
can be a short Puerto Rican cop,
but you can’t be a short
Angtalzi," he continued.

�History 200

Art Department

Reaching out to community Gaining historical
insight through film

Looking for another course? If you’re interested
in teaching and/or art, the Community Outreach
Program offered through the Art Department here
may be for you.
Each week students in the Community Outreach
Program work with various community groups and
direct artistic projects.
The program is the fust of such joint efforts
established by the Albright-Knox Art Gallery and
this University. “This is a new phase in museum
education,” stated Frank Viola, coordinator of
Community Outreach at the Art Gallery. “The
students can use our galleries and our copies of
famous paintings. They have access to our slide
collections for presenting their projects.”
Community Outreach allows students to enter
community places such as day care centers, senior
citizens homes, the Fillmore-Leroy community
center and the Erie County Detention Center. The
students instruct people in the construction of
projects.” Every week students pick the class they
want to teach. Then they plan a project and present
it to the group,” explained Jeannette Harris, Art
Department faculty member.
Projects presented by the students cover a wide
range. “One student had the people in the Erie
County Infirmary make their own movies,” added
Harris. “Patients drew on the blank film with magic
markers; then the films were shown.” Other projects
include
and
drawing,
painting
sculpting.
Fischer-Price toys gave Community Outreach three
boxes of wood scraps, which permitted the classes to

deal with extensive wood construction

Stipends available
The students teach classes by themselves. “We
have a staff of three teachers. One will be in the
room to help a student in case he runs into trouble
explaining an instruction or needs help,” said Viola.
A unique feature of this class is that the
students receive a stipend, ten dollars for every class
they instruct. Payments are made possible by a grant
awarded to the Gallery. “1 feel the students are
performing a service to the community and should
receive something for this,” commented Harris.
It is believed that the stipend will be continued
next semester. “We’re always wondering where the
money will be coming from. Frank (Viola) has
already applied for the grant from CETA,” stated
Harris.
Most of the students previously enrolled in the
program are Art majors. “The student who registers
should be a studio major and have some studio
experience,” said Harris. “This course gives the
student teaching experience and leads to teaching
certification.”
“The range of age groups vary; the student is
involved in teaching at a lot of different levels,” said
Viola. “The student gets plenty of experience.”
The program will be offered next semester with
the hope of a larger enrollment. Only jhirteen
students were enrolled this semester. “These
students are very enthusiastic about this and have
given a lot to the program,” said Harris. “We’re
really pleased.”

Milton Plesur is a history teacher who likes movies. As a result he
has dedicated a great part of his time to writing a book and developing
a course about movies and how they reflect American society.
Plesure, who has been teaching at this University since 1955 has a
great approach to an old subject. “Why can’t a course be fun,” he
enthused. The course, History 200, is a progression of American movies
reflecting trends in American history. One topic is how ethnic groups
were treated and subsequently depicted in a movie. This course also
attempts to show how movies are a source of American values and
themes, such as war, peace and the high times of the 1920’s, etc.
“Movies showed this,” said Plesur. “During the depression serious
movies were made. These were movies of social significance.”

Records too!
The course itself doesn’t consist of many movies. “We meet two
times a week and play a lot of records dealing with movies,” Plesur
said. “The department is supportive but we don’t really have the
supplies for this type of course.” When asked about the function of
movies, Plesur replied, “I don’t think movies create much, I think they
reflect more. They are not more or less important than any other
media.”
Plesur has done his homework. While it is the fourth time this
course has been offered, Plesur is approaching it in a new manner. He
remarked, “I am an orthodox trained Historian, but got into popular
history. Students lived in popular history but didn’t know anything
about its culture. Even prosaic and mundane things can tell us
something.”

Shining stars
His book, which will be published in

a year, analyzes attitudes of
personnel, both stars and others. Plesur, a name
dropper, told of a few of the many people he has interviewed. They
include such notables as Fred Astaire, Joan Blondell, George Burns,
Buster Crabbe, FiFi D’Orsay (the original sex kitten), Melvin Douglas,
Margaret “the wicked witch” Hamilton, Ray “the scarecrow” Bolger,
Otto Preminger, George Raft and Butterfly McQueen. The book deals
with star phenomenon and heroes. “1 am not an elitist,” said Plesur,

year). Energy consumption would

The answer to a blank wall
by Mark Meltzer
Assistant Sports Editor

If you live in a college
dormitory you probably have
posters on your walls. In fact, the
average dorm room is decorated
with more than half a dozen such
items.

Most students decorate their
rooms with posters because of
their relatively low cost. But why
do they put something on their

walls? Writer Robert Dahlin
explains: “A wall is just a wall
without a poster, and for many
that is enough. Others require a
flash of color, a blast of message,
or a mass of nostalgia.”
The modern poster movement,
which began in the late 19th
century, stresses photography as

Kauffer noted two important

second, that one cannot easily

Hitching: safety and the law
by Kathryn Norway
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Not very many students heed
the warning on the sign at Squire
saying, “Caution:
Hitching may be hazardous to

Information

your health.”

Joe Smith (not his real name)
summer
a
whole
spent
hitch-hiking around the country.
His methods were not the
ordinary
thumb-out-on-thchighway bit. Smith was much
more serious, carrying a portable
CB radio. With this he contacted
passing truckers and asked for a
ride. Many times he got a ride to
his exact destination. Smith, a
student here, travelled over 2300
miles this way spending at the
most $2.50 a day.
Christmas vacation he hitched
to Florida; over the summer to
Portland, Oregon. The rides he
received were from trucks such as
Diamond Reo, Mack, CMC Astro
95, Kensworth, White and even a
frcightliner. The rides took him
from 500 miles to 5 miles.
This student feels that most
thumb travellers are welcome
wherever they wind up. “Most of
my meals were free,” Smith said,
“paid for by the truckers or just
nice people trying to help out.”

It’s legal

Smith also found another less

popular way to see the country.
He hitched freight cars. Travelling

this way, he’s seen places such as
Kansas City, Minneapolis and
Denver. He says freight cars have
the disadvantage of being illegal to
hitch on and emphasizes that they
are very uncomfortable but free
rides.
In all his travels, Smith’s worst
experience was a drunk driver
who took off with his back pack.
He later recovered it and no harm
came to either party. This appears
to be the case for most male
hitchers, but one female student
who thumbed short distances
most of the summer related her
Mary
memorable experiences.
Jones (also a pseudonym) also

took hitching very seriously and robberies do occur to hitchers and
carried Hitch-hikers Manual, a drivers. In California last year, one
book filled with information for girl was raped after she had been
the inexperienced hitcher, with picked up from a male ride. When

what to avoid talking about, and
the best states in which to
hitch-hike.
Jones said that although most
of her rides were safe she would
never hitch alone again. Many of
her male rides made sexual
advances but were not violent and
she was semi-protected with a
friend. The advances were in the
form of proposals offering money.
She claims that sometimes the
situation was difficult to get out
of and if her friend had not been
with her several incidents could
have proved to be violent.
Dangers abound
Drivers who pick up hitchers
have similar feelings. They are
usually truckers, students or those
that had to hitch in their younger
days. Their attitude is that of, “I
know how it feels,” or “I like
company when I’m driving.” Of
those that won’t pick up a hitcher
“It’s
too
is,
attitude
the
dangerous!” These people are
mostly in family groups or are
young people who never found a
need to hitch. One young man
related his experience that verified
this feeling. He was driving a truck
and had picked up a male hitcher
about 18 years old, who then
pulled a knife on him, demanding
the driver’s wallet. A fist fight
almost
ensued in the truck
causing an accident. The hitcher
got nothing more than a black
eye. This young man claims he
will never pick up another hitcher.
“Why cause myself trouble when 1
can avoid it?” he asks.
The decision about hitching or
picking up hitchers depends on
the individual. It can’t definitely
be
stated that hitching is
"hazardous to your health,” but
then again it only takes one
incident to prove this true. It is a
fact that rapes, murders and

Biking: an alternate
form of travelling
Who says the only way to see this country is by either train, bus,
plane or car? These methods consume much money and gas. This
summer a young couple travelled through most of New York then rode
to Nova Scotia on their bicycles. The trip took five weeks but the
actual riding time was about 22 days.
How can one assure a safe and pleasant trip pedaling 22 days? This
couple really prepared themselves. Each had a ten-speed packed with
all the goods they would need: food, sleeping bags, cooking utensils,
clothing and money, and tools in case of bike trouble. When all the
packing was done, they found each bike had too much weight so they
had to cut back. The bikes weighed as much as sixty pounds. To carry
the load, each bike had a pannier, a pair of baskets flanking the back
wheels. They also had a basket in front of the handlebars. This was
sufficient to hold everything they needed.
They set out for their first destination, Rochester, June 12, and
planned to return to Buffalo during the middle of August. The couple
brought along $1000 worth of Travellers Checks, $250 of which was
spent on food. The remainder was spent on gifts for family members, a
ferry ride, campsites, and tickets for the return train from Nova Scotia.

Keep on pedaling
As with most adventures, there were many good and bad
experiences. “Pedaling up a hill in the rain is made up for when you’ve
made it to your destination and there’s a friend waiting with food and
a hot bath,” said the female half of the couple. But riding up a hill isn’t
that bad with a ten speed and as for the rain, they each had huge
poncho’s that covered the entire bike. The worst part of the trip, they
said, was the fatigue at the end of a day’s journey. They rode about 70
miles a day, covering a total of 1 500 miles the entire trip.
One difficulty was passing cars and trucks. Often they passed at
high speeds and very close to the cyclists. This can cause whirlwinds
which could very easily cause a bike to swerve uncontrollably. Once
they were run off the road but luckily, were not injured.
Most of the ride was enjoyable, they said. The campsites were
beautiful and people were nice. Biking allows time to stop and enjoy
such pleasures. The couple was surprised to find out that many people
partake in this form of travel.

A boring win over Fredonia
The basketball Royals raised their record to 2—0
Wednesday with a win over Fredonia 69-51, but
Buffalo coach Liz Cousins wasn’t entirely happy
with the team’s effort. “They played well enough to
win, but I wasn’t pleased with the overall way they
played,” she said.
It was obvious from the start that Buffalo was
the much better team. The Blue Devils shot poorly
and rarely managed to pull down an offensive
rebound, while allowing UB shot after shot.
“Fredonia should not have scored 50 points,”
commented Cousins.
But as the Buffalo coach said, the Royals did
play well enough to win. Sophomore Gabi Gray was
both the scoring and rebounding leader for UB with
17 points and ten rebounds. Co-captain Paula Hills
was the second highest scorer with 13. Kay Hoffman
led the Blue Devils with 17 points.
Cousins praised both Gray and Hills for their
defenstive work but said that two players aren’t
enough. “You have to have the whole team playing
well to have good defense,” she said.
Short star
The game was boring from the beginning. With
only a tew minutes played, UB had an eight-point
lead which slowly got larger. At the end of the first
halt, Buffalo had a 13-point lead and they won by
18.

However, UB sophomore Elizabeth Kranlz kept
the crowd from falling asleep with she came off the
bench to display some fancy ballhandling and deadly
shooting. The 5 I Krantz totalled 12 points and
nine steals.
On one play, Krantz grabbed a defensive
rebound and raced down the court with the ball. She
sent a nice pass to Gray in front of the key, but Gary
missed the shot. Krantz then pulled down the
rebound and put it in the basket for two points.
Krantz, who is the best freethrow shooter on the
team, shot 6-for-6 from the line.
Counsms used an unusual method of

players to substitute at a time, she would
usually send in three or four. “I was trying to find

Cousins was especially displeased with the
Royals' passing. Although they often got two or
three shots, they couldn't always capitalize on those
easy opportunities because of poor passes. "We have
to pass better,” said Cousins. “We’re not hitting the

basketball Bulls lost to the
University of Akron, 83-55 here
Wednesday. The Bulls are now
0-3.
Buffalo displayed its latest
horror show in familiar fashion.
UB shot an anemic 23 percent
from the field in the first half,
while on the other hand Akron
shot a hot 55 percent. As in the
previous two games, Buffalo again
had the opportunities, but failed
to cash in by missing high
percentage shots and turning the
ball over. Coach Leo Richardson
repeated a familiar explanation,
“Our shots didn’t fall.”
Richardson attempted to ignite
the offense by shaking up the
starting lineup. Forward Nate

Rodney
Bouie
and
McDaniel replaced Chris Conlon
and Lloyd Devaux. It did little
good, as the Zips of Akron came

Akron’s John Britton, a 6-5

half. Most of his shots came from
close range, where he tore up the

Akron coach Ken Cunningham,
“Everything jelled together, as we

Richardson feels his club is 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;

A plea for unity in Buffalo

against Erie County Democratic Chairman. Joe
Crangje) than a positive mandate.

into his administration as possible. Perhaps he has
been wrongly misjudged as a divisive force in the
city, but since he has been perceived to be, he will
have to make an aggressive effort to promote
goodwill and to bring the many different ethnic
groups of the city together. This benevolence is of
the utmost importance. If Buffalo is to have any
type of bright future at all, the people of the city
must unite and help each other

A reported kidnapping

at the Ellicott Complex Wesncsday
afternoon fizzled out to a bizarre trans-Atlantic family squabble
involving a 20-year-old polish immigiant and her chagrined fiance.
The woman recently wed a Japanese student here, but was
apparently engaged to another man in her home country of Poland. A
phone call to her parents in Europe was the first link in a derisive chain
of events which ended in University Police Headquarters on the Main
Street Campus amidst claims of kidnapping and unlawful
imprisonment.
According to accounts pieced together from various law
enforcement agencies, the woman’s parents contacted the fiance who
then called acquaintances here in hopes of splitting the newlyweds. The
fiance reportedly made plans to travel to this country himself to break
up the marriage. A spokesperson for University Police said it was the
woman’s father who summoned contacts here, but in any event, two
men approximately 45 and 60 years of age drove from their residences
to the Hlicott Complex in search of the woman.
The two men, according to University Police accounts, convinced
the woman they had letters from her parents in Poland. The woman
voluntarily left the Red Jacket Quad With the men at about 1 p.m.
Wednesday afternoon. She was then blindfolded, driven to a house of
unknown location and locked in a room that, curiously enough,
contained a telephone.

informed Coop Chairman Lenny Rollins of “significant cost
increases.”
.
Transcontinent said by letter,
we have continued to
absorb the higher costs on the $8.98 list albums and up (double and
triple album packages). Although this product represents a
negligible portion of your purchases from us, we now find it
necessary to start recovering some of those increased cost*. In
addition we have made a very minor adjustment on a couple of
lower priced albums.”
Transcontinent employee Ann Orlando, commented, “Actually
prices have been going up the past three years and we’ve been
holding the line. It’s a cost increase that’s filtered down to us by the
record manufacturers. It probably has something to do with the
increases in oil prices, because you need oil to make plastic.
Different labels go up different amounts, there are a lot of factors
involved.”
“

..

Inflation

Dave Colson, Vice President of Amherst Records, a Buffalo

subsidiary of Transcontinent said, “It’s an inflationary increase.
Cost of labor, advertising and packaging all have been going up a
constant 6-8 percent a year. Shipments that cost us $5 a few years
ago now cost us $25. It has to be passed on, as in any other

business.”

Discussing the new price increases, Colson said, “Albums will
now list at $7.98. The only $6.98 albums will be those that the
manufacturer feels will not be a hit, albums that he (the
manufacturer) feels safer releasing at $6.98.” Colson added, “I
think that you will be looking at $7.98 albums through 1980. This
represents a leveling off point for albums. You have to realize that
when you buy an album, you’re also buying the packaging, which
has risen significantly in costs also.”

They say (who are “they” anyway?) that the
issue of marijuana use and legalization is overdone
and literally exhausted. But take a minute to think
about it. How much do you really know about that

drug you either “get high” on or
denounce as the killer weed?
Recently, a debate on just this issue was
conducted by Joe and Steve (their last names were
withheld at the request of their parents.) The
following is an exerpt from that debate.
Joe: Marijuana, legally classified as “cannibus
saliva” but otherwise known as grass, pot, weed,
shit, smoke, reefer, herb or dust, is in essence a
psychoactivc drug. This broad catagory includes
stimulants, coffee, cigarettes and alcohol. By
definition of the National Commission on Marijuana
and Drug Abuse, “A psychoactive drug is any
substance capable of modifying mental performance
and individual behavior by inducing functional or
pathological changes in the central nervous system.”
Read that definition again carefully and you’ll notice
that the implied pathological changes of the central
nervous system are not necessarily bad ones . . . but

trained researchers presenting documented proof
that pot is harmful and effects many of the body’s
mental and physical capacities.
Joe: Today these marijuana pathologizers are on
the defensive. Each new finding announcing damage
to another organ or, function of the body is met with
refutation or with a parallel study demonstrating
negative findings. Admittedly, research of the drug
has been “hazy.” Reputable researchers have been
accused by equally reputable colleagues of “rigging”
experiments and “bending” research results to reach
preconceived conclusions. The case is such that Dr.
Robert Dupont, Director of the National Institute
on Drug Abuse (NIDA) has characterized all recent
marijuana research as "contradictory, inconclusive
and equivocal.”
Even taking this into consideration many
researchers are prohe to agree with the contention
that though pot ijt illegal, it is less harmful in its
effects than tolurcco or alcohol. In fact, a
comparative study, of the effects of marijuana and
alcohol in simulated driving performance conducted
by the Bureau of Motor Vehicles of the State of
Washington found, in general, that marijuana caused

An end and a beginning
SA President Dennis Delia's concurrence with the SA
Executive Committee's decision to postpone indefinitely a
student referendum on the proposed withdrawal from SASU
is wise. The fact that his last minute change of heart was
influenced by serious consultation with officials from the
Graduate Student Association (GSA) is significant.
If the referendum had been held and if Delia's proposal
to pull SA out of SASU had won over the students here,
future lobbying efforts in Albany for increased construction
on this campus 'would have been impaired as much by
student devisiveness in Albany as by a resultant rift between
SA President Delia and his Executive Committee and the
Student Senate.
Whether full time lobbyists, hired with the $11,000 SA

would save by withdrawing from SASU, could do a better
job of pressing for construction money at this University
than SASU student delegates is at best doubtful. Delegates
from student governments across the SUNY system,
representing SUNY students across the state, working as a
close knit, efficient lobby can do more to get more funds
released by the Division of the Budget (DOB) without the by
now customary delays in Albany. That is, if indeed any
student voices are heeded by SUNY and legislative officials
in Albany.
Delia's claim that SASU lobbied for construction at
SUNY Stony Brook is compelling evidence in favor of
pulling out, however the spirit that spawned the idea of a
single unifying mechanism for SUNY schools is vital to
retain
now, in this era of budget cuts, more than ever.
The Student Senate, supposedly representative of the
student body, apparently felt the same way. There are
serious problems with putting before the students an issue
already decided by their representatives. It very much
undermines the basic idea of a Senate.
The referendum could legitimately be thought of as a
slap in the Senate's face. In this sense, the death of the
referendum could breathe new life into the strained relations
between the executive and legislative branches of SA.
Of longer lasting significance is the sudden, most
welcome (though a bit overdue) communication between the
Undergraduate and Graduate student associations. The two
governments have many interfacing objectives as well as
complimentary resources and talents.
According to Delia, SASU recently pegged Buffalo
construction as its top lobbying priority. This of course, is
welcome news and Delia is to be commended for taking a
strong stand that, despite its ultimate demise, has achieved
certain gains. That such gains required Delia's very sincere
threat of withdrawal is emblematic of the problem SA has in
getting its $11,000 worth out of SASU.
With separation from SASU now behind us, SA is urged
to patch up its own reeling ship and to take positive steps to
enhance the returns this University gets from SASU and to
take such steps with as much vigor and dedication as was
summoned for use in the effort to pull out if the whole
SASU issue has taught any lesson, it is that Buffalo's voice in
the organization is not being shouted long enough or loud
enough. Admittedly, it may also be falling on deaf or
unresponsive ears but, given present realities, SA has no
choice but to scream at SASU even louder.

To the Editor:

In Wednesday’s The Spectrum, CAC made an
apology to those persons in attendance of the 10
p.m. show of Monty Python’s The Holy Grail. The
last 60 SECONDS of the film was not shown. It was
mistakenly reported that the cause of this was an
error by the projectionist. The direct cause of the
blackened screen was the jamming of the douser
mechanism on the projector. If this mechanism is
down, no light comes through the lens.
Due to today’s non-existent budgets and the
extensive use of part-time student assistants as
projectionists, it is not conceivable to give a detailed
training course in the maintenance and repair of
projection equipment. This projectionist was not
instructed in the repair of equipment.
Lecture Hall Services, a division of the
Educational Communications Center, accepts full
responsibility for the mechanical failure of the
projector. It is true that LHS is the only service
organization allowed to project on campus in the
Lecture Hall facilities. We run all films except for the
UUAB weekend program in Squire Hall. We have
been in operation since the Summer of 1976 and
have not had any complaints as to the quality of
projection service. We are very concerned with the
quality of this service, and strive for perfection

within the existing limitations; grossly inadequate
Lecture Hall facilities, poor existing theater sound
systems, antiquated projection equipment, and a
severely limited part-time budget. Granted, we are
the only projection service on campus, but we are
quite confident in the quality of our work.
We recognize that CAC is a valuable
organization to the community. They use the profits
from their movie program to fund important
community-oriented
projects.

They
the
coordinators of the movie program, not the
projectionists. Again, we accept full responsibility
for the equipment failure and apologize to those in
attendance. In light of a recent letter in The
Spectrum calling for a boycott of CAC movies (for
reasons which may or may not have been founded as
our sound system experienced a temporary
malfunction) and the need for an without assessing
the totality of the circumstances involved. This was
probably to avoid any potential negative attitudes
towards their program. No negativity is deserved!
Your feedback on the quality of our projection
service and any suggestions on how to improve the
existing Lecture Hall facilities would be greatly
appreciated in letters to our office in Foster Annex,
room 1.

My greetings to each and all of you. I’m not
sure exactly how I should begin this letter, but
I believe that the best way is to be honest and direct
with you. You see, at this time 1 cam a resident of
Attica Correctional Facility serving a five year
sentence. Now if that bit of news doesn’t turn you
off then I guess there’s a little hope left that you’ll
finish this letter and give it a little of your
quite

consideration.
I have been here for the past three years and am
being released a year from now and feel that it’s
about time I -attempt to get myself back in touch
with the world. In here it is so easy after time passes
by to forget that there is another world aside from
this totally negative atmosphere of prison life and I’d

appreciate it more than you know if you could assist
me in obtaining some communication with any
persons who might be interested in sharing a few of
their thoughts and ideas with me.
Anyone who feels they would be interested in
corresponding with me is more than welcome to
drop me a line and they can be assured of a prompt
answer.
Possibly you could post my name and address
on your student bulletin board, or if you desire, you
might just post this letter up for anyone to read. I
thank you very much for your time and am in the
sincere hope that 111 be hearing from some of you in
the near future. Peace to all of you . . .

Geraldo in Bolivia
To the Editor.
I am writing this letter to apologize to PODER,
although what I am apologizing for 1 do not exactly
know. But I would like to apologize first of all for
“programming their lives on campus.” I did not
realize that by programming Geraldo Rivera, the top
investigative reporter in the country, I was
programming their lives, I sincerely believed that I
was doing the University community a service, but if
I was wrong, I apologize. The second thing 1 would
like to apologize for is mispelling his name, maybe I
should have ran into The Spectrum office and
checked the press or if I was too late for that correct
spelling in all The Spectrum's, excuse me. The third
thing I apologize for is putting the ad in a box. If 1

had known that this would offend PODER 1 would
have put it in a circle. The fourth thing I apologize
for is not mentioning what he was speaking on. The
reason for this being that 1 asked Geraldo to speak
on the Kennedy assassinations, but this was
contingent on him getting hold of certain films,
which he could not give me a definite yes on . .
Therefore I decided to leave the topic of the speech
open to him, again I apologize.
Finally, I apologize for not asking PODER to

co-sponsor. The reason being the lecture WAS NOT
TO BE A RACIAL ISSUE. It was simply a lecture by
a
top reporter (probably) on the Kennedy
assassinations, which is not a racial issue. PODER
would have been greatly disappointed by the lecture
since it would not have been on “insight into the
Latin culture today,” as they seem to feel, just like it
would not have been on “insight into Jewish culture
today,” yes PODER, Mr. Rivera is half Jewish. This
is why the “College of Urban Studies" was asked to
co-sponsor.
If PODER thinks 1 have been insensitive to the
minorities on ihis campus why don’t they just walk
next door and ask BSU how much money 1 spent on
Angela Davis.

I’hi sorry if I came on a little heavy in this
letter; r do not mean to offend PODER. But I do
feel their letter was extremely absurd, and more of
an effort should have been made to contact me
directly. As most of you already know Geraldo did
not come to UB; instead ABC sent him to Bolivia.
Sorry PODER

Professional waste
To the Editor
On Wednesday, 1 attended the Jerry Garcia
Concert. As usual, his music was really great. That
was the only good point of the entire concert.
The time spent between songs, about 4 to 5
minutes was disgusting. Garcia averaged about 4 to 5
songs per hour so that left about 20 minutes per
hour of silence. For a show that started almost an
hour late and had an intermission of alfnost an hour,

how could the concert not last the 3 hours it was
supposed to run? Yea, it ran over 3 hours. It lasted
about VA hours. Unfortunately, only about an hour
and a half was music. For a professional performer,
that was a poor performance.
I wonder what would have happened had the
show been shown in the Century as it was
previously? You can bet there would have been less

wasted time.

I would like to express my views on the issues related to
foreign graduate teaching assistants at this University (Letter by
Judy Abramowitz, The Spectrum, Sept. 28).
Though this is the first time I have heard of the problem of
lack of communications involving the French Department, it has
been voiced before concerning Physics, Chemistry, Mathematics,
etc. Very likely, no one from the university administration will
respond with any explanation for the issues raised. I believe that it
reflects the extent of administration’s concern and commitment
for undergraduate education consistent with the larger constraints
defining the nature of the university today.
I would like to look at the problem of communication in a
class in the larger context of education in a university. The
problem of effective communications has two sides to it. One
aspect may be the inability of some foreign students to adequately
express themselves. The other aspect equally important is that
many undergraduate students do not expect to understand foreign
students, in spite of how well they can speak. Brought up with the
American ideology (characteristic of a superpower), they don’t
expect foreign students to know English, speak English and teach
effectively in English. Consequently, when they find it difficult to
comprehend in their classes, (for a number of other reasons
referred below), spontaneously they attribute it to the lack of
effective communications. I think effective communications is only
a necessary condition and is far from being a sufficient condition
for quality education. This becomes obvious when one compares
courses where both American and non-American students serve as
instructors. One would find that differences, if any, are indeed
small. This implies that the remaining factors (other than that of
effective communications) have more profound effects on
undergraduate education. Let me identify some of these factors:
(a) The class sizes are relatively large. Last year 1 knew of a
course with a class size of 135 taught by an American TA. I would
have been surprised if any communication was possible in such a
class.

(ii) Under economic compulsions the undergraduate students
attempt to gain a formal degree in the shortest time, at the least
cost. Consequently, they design for themselves programs at an
intense pace.
(iii) Many classes are taught by graduate students rather than
by full-time faculty. Graduate students are called upon to do this
work in addition to their full course load as students, in order to
'

12?
60P'

support themselves through graduate school.
(iv) Faculty are under pressure to do research rather than to
teach in order to survive. Hence, they prefer to have graduate
students handle undergraduate teaching.
(v) The University is under pressure to operate with grossly
inadequate resources. Adequate full-time teaching personnel are

not appointed.
(vi)The undergraduate students are under tremendous
pressure to compete with each other for formal grades so that they
can gain entrance into programs where there are still some jobs left,
like medicine, etc. In order to do so, they are compelled to resort
to any means possible. Such social pressures have induced an
overemphasis on grades and a drastic underemphasis on learning.
In short, the problems raised by Judy Abramowitz are more
complex, in my view, than that of whether teachers can “speek
Engleesh.” However, many of the important factors affecting the
nature of university education are probably not as visible to
everyone as that of foreign students 'being unable to communicate
effectively. Given the prevailing ideology of American superpower
with which the students have been brought up, unfortunately
foreigners become their targets of attack.
To deal at least minimally with the problem raised by Judy
Abramowitz, the following steps can be taken:
1. The departments should take more seriously the question of
what assignments they give to each of the teaching assistants.
Especially the freshman and sophomore courses should be handled
by teaching assistants who can communicate effectively with the
students or more preferably by
the faculty.
2. There exists a large degree of social alienation faced by the
veants of our fair land have to use up foreign students that forces
them to form close ethnic groups. This in no way helps develop
better communicative abilities. Most American graduate students
are also content to remain in their close knit groups thus
aggravating the situation. The only way this will change is if
American graduate students undertake special efforts to interact
with non-Americans in their departments. Given the discriminatory
treatments and attitudes towards foreign students that objectively
exist, the initiative of American students in this direction is
essential
In my next letter, I would address the question of why foreign
students are here in the United States in such large numbers and
whether this situation can be changed.

Marijuana question.
of outwardly observable effect* that it has on human
beings. To legalize, or even use it, would be
understood as acceptance or total understanding of
it by die medical profession. Since marijuana has no
therapeutic value, it is only introducing another
toxin into society. We are very far from
understanding all of marijuana’s effects of us.
Jot: That’s where you’re wrong. I’m sure you’re
familiar with the case of Robert Randal, who is one
of the over two million Americans suffering from
glaucoma. In an experiment backed by the United
States government, Randal uses pot daily to help
stabilize his condition. Researchers have known for
several years that pot relieves die main symptom of
the disease (pressure within the eye due to improper
drainage of optic fluids). Randal estimates he has
amoted over 3,000 of the high potency, federally
issued joints and said, “there have been no side
effects.” The therapeutical benefit* of marijuana
don't stop there. Thousands of cancer patients who
now suffer from the severe side effects of
chemotherapy are benefiting from the discovery
that THC (Tetrahydrocannibinol), the principle
active ingredient in marijuana, either reduces or
eliminates vomiting and nausea. The drug has also
been known in recent years to help treat the effects
of depression, insomnia, amphetamine withdrawal,
asthma, epilepsy, as well as victims of severe migrain
headaches and women who experience painful
menstrual cramps and difficult labor in childbirth.

Steve: Ify review of the literature indicates that
none of the therapeutic claims of THC can be
satisfactorily substantiated, or that other drugs are
available which are more specific, more potent, and
easier to prescribe, administer and control; which are
free of psychomimetic effects; and which have
modes of action that are better understood.
The notion that marijuana is harmless must be
reviewed, for, this theory has enjoyed a high degree
of acceptance for too long with a complete disregard
for history and a near total lack of scientific
evidence. At this time I would like to bring up
evidence of a report done in 1974 oy Doctors Nahas
and Kolodmy of Columbia and St. Louis
Universities, respectively, regarding the effects of
marijuana on sperm count and testosterone levels. At
the time of the study it was estimated that two
million people smoked pot once a day and over
seven million smoked at least once a week.
The figures today ate obviously much higher.
The study verified that pot lowers the level of
testosterone, which stimulates sperm production in
males. This effect could lead to delay or distortion
of puberty in pre-adolescent boys and could
eventually lead to impotency. So all potential
Romeos should be aware that more than your
inhibitions may be lowered when you get into bed
under the influence of pot.
Jot: 1 remember that the study evoked a great
deal of publicity in the media, citing all sorts of bad
sounding physical reactions, but these are merely
scare tactics. What they’re trying to do is hit the
sexually minded youth of today below the belt. In
fact, a review of iust this study in Scientific
1

where strength and use of the drug is remarkably
more widespread.’* For those who believe that the
use of marijuana is definitely wrong solely because
it’s against the law, I contend that it is one thing to
merely sit on an established law and say, “Ipso
Factor:” the law is right. The challenge comes in
examining the issue objectively and then evaluating
the law as to its social relevance and the scope of its
consequences.
Steve: Legalization, however, is not the answer.
1 can see some sense in the new legal status of pot,
.protecting the occasional user. If the issue is
pursued, I feel transactions of the drug should be
regulated by tariffs and taxes, and sold in registered
outlets, available only through doctor's orders, if any
such condition could ever arise. At this time I am in
agreement with government policies of lenient
punishment for possession and extreme punishment
for sale. What is needed are more educational
advisement programs to alert potential marijuana
users to the risks of the use of the drug. Discipline
and values should be made more important.
Joe: Marijuana is today the most widely used
illicit drug Twenty percent of Americans, that’s
25-30 million people having used it at least once and
at least half of these current users get high at least
once a week. This widespread use of marijuana is not
a new worldwide phenomenen. Its use has been
popular in the U.S. in one font) or another for
decades. With this information it seems logical that if
there were serious long term effects of the drug,
repeated cases of these such effects would begin to
surface through medical research.
After decades of marijuana myth-making the
government is now in the process of reconsidering
the medical properties of pot So much are recent
findings to the medical benefits of pot that,
researchers say, if THC had recently been discovered
by the pharmaceutical industry instead of private
citizens, it would likely be praised as a new miracle
drug rather than outlawed as the killer weed. It is
impossible to make a decision on marijuana without
considering the context of total human experience
and this is different for each of us. Keep in mind
that the final story on marijuana is not yet in. In
time, new evidence will be brought to light. Until
then you must make a decision in tyie light of what
you know. If you do decide to “gW high” or to keep
on “getting high,” more power to you.
Steve: You may or may not think that pot can
effect you adversely as I have hopefully proven to
you here. If it does, it is a fact that you cannot
directly see these effects yourself and that may lead
you to believe that there are no adverse effects.
Actually, you have no way of seeing your lungs,
looking at your blood cells, checking your
chromosomes or directly observing any number of
effects marijuana has on your body. Even if there is
a slight chance that pot could effect you in the ways
1 have previously mentioned, can you afford to take
that chance with not only yourself but possibly, one
day, with vour children?

assumption.
The Status of the case was uncertain at press time Thursday
afternoon since the woman refused to sign an official complaint,
according to University Police Detective Frank Panek. Becuase she was
unwilling to press charges, little more than misdemeanor counts could
be placed at any time against the two men, whose identities and
whereabouts are at this time unknown.
Investigators were at first puzzled as to a possible motive in the
case. The fact that the woman was unnoticeably abducted in the
middle of the afternoon at the heavily-populated Ellicott Complex was
particularly curious. As the details began unfolding, the at first
alarming kidnapping charge melted into something considerably less

Buff State

Grateful Dead show
was quite worthless
by Dimitri Papadopoulos
Music Editor

Had last week's Jerry Garcia concert taken place in my backyard, I
would have written a paperback in ectasy. It didn't so I won't. Instead,
I will comply with a short, though friendly and very appreciative
retort. The promoters of the concert saw a demand and filled it with
the best they could. They could have booked another name act, but
Garcia is the name that cpunted. Hence, the Buffalo State College
Student Union Board and Steve Ralbovsky should recieve applause and
recognition for the work they have done, putting on great rock and roll
shows. Truly they are the most innovative promoters this city has seen
in the last two years.
To be sure, I didn't enjoy Jerry Garcia; he's a fat old hippie and
childish in his ways. What's more, he has become a parody of the
hippie statesman he once was. Captain Trips, what a jokel During one
song, an overblown "That's What Love Will Make You Do," he
appeared pn the verge of a cardiac arrest. An arrest on charges of
promoting somnolent obscenity would have been more appropriate.
Rock has always feared the assination of a major performer; it would
be fairly ironic if, instead, the old age claimed the first victim. My last
gripe is directed towards the audience. Although (and it's about time at
that) I think some people are finally accepting Garcia's demise.
Grateful Dead fans, at least the ones which still attend their concerts,
are the best fans in the world. Perhaps they are too good. Their
problem is quite similar to that of the captain of a sinking ship. Dead
Heads just don't know when to quit.

Well that's their problem, and not the point, here, anyway. The
fact which will remain after the disappointment of the Garcia show has
dissapated is that the fan's got what they want; not a substitute, nor
what I want and that '$ all that counts and that couldn't have taken
place if it we ten't for the Buffalo State gang. They love rock and roll.
The Jerry Garcia concert is not a very good example of this, nor as
to how
the promoters are. A look at their acts will remedy
this; Southside Johnny and The Asbury Jukes, David Brombert (last
year). The Ramones, John Prine, Lip Service, John Fahey, Talking
Heads, The Deadboys, Loudon Wainwright, The Dictators, Eric
Andersen, Randy Newman, The Flying Currite Brothers, and those are
only the names that I remember. At one point before the band
canceled out, Steve Ralbovsky had scheduled. Steely Dan; now tell me
you wouldn't wanna go see them. In the future, Elvis Costello seems
like a strong possibility and a very progressive booking.
Who else can say they're that in contact with the times? Who else
can claim, they'v&gt;e brought such interesting and new shows. No one,
that's who. No one, at least has done so on such an intimate scale, and
I call being able to see such great shows on my campus intimate. Save
for a few jazz shows, I can't say that I have. As for you Dead Heads,
sorry, but you could keep the bickering amongst yourselves. You give
me a headache.

�The Roots of Bubbling Brown Sugar
by Michael F. Hopkins
Spectrum Music Staff

Tomorrow night live in the acoustically sparkling
&amp; Corky productions
will present the area premiere of the Grammy award
winning musical. Bubbling Brown Sugar. Sugar is the
musical portrait of the Harlem (in vogue) of the 20s, 30s
and 40s that rhythmically rocked the world. The following
treatise shall attempt to explore the roots of this succulent
sweetness, a consummate taste that will nurture despite
bitter odds.

Music was "Flying Home" on a Hampton-Goodman

Blackbirds of 1928 and an unknown high stepper named
Bill Robinson (Mr. Bojangles, as the cane tips roundly and

elegance on Creative Dance. Broadway would never be the

The recent TV movie. Minstrel Man, deals powerfully
with the subject of the black minstrel show and the
dawning rag music. As the ill-fated (whet else?) musician
stated to a racist, hostile, audience when he appeared
before them in whiteface (a chalk reversal), "There ain't
no whites out here. Ain't nothin' but radnecksV That was
when his health took a turn for the worse.

from RCA Victor's Bluebird series, it The Fat* Waller
Piano Solo*. The bubbling grace of "African Ripples" and
the stride gladiator's coup de grace of Fats' "Handful of
Keys" and James P. Johnson's "Carolina Shout" stomp

with Benny Payne, Fats displays his talents alone, moving
from 1829-41 with a versatility that can grind-em-up on a
dance floor and could cry pianissimmo to awaken ears.
The Honeysuckle, as they say. Rote.
Mentioning this tune again, it is safe to say that the
Honeysuckly Rose gathered quite a flock of masters, here
and to be. One such example it the classic reunion of Fats
and Louis Armstrong (covered in the book) in 1938. This
radio session of the Swingmakers has been released on Fat*
Waller and Hi* Rhythm (1938) Volume IS (Fr nch RCA).
They do a minute rendition of "Honeysuckle Rote" (along
with Jack Teagarden, trombone, Al Casey, guitar, and
other Waller members) that packs the power and group
improvisation of several minutes of excitement elsewhere.
The trade off between Satchmo and Fats on 'The Old
Time Blues" is an excellent case of scat, courtesy the Cats.
Louis on "Tiger Rag" strikes clean and deep with that
sweet tone of metallic flow. Then there's Louis and Jack
"On The Sunny Side of The. Street," not to mention the
album's close, with the participants individually gathering
to declare "I Got Rhythm." "Jeepers Creepers," indeed!
Beautiful.

Let us review a few ingredients of the brew.
...

...

Thomas "Fats" Waller. A rotund slim picker of street
and Satin. A derby hatted cigar chomper who took the
Carolina Shout of James P. Johnson's Harlem stride and
brought to the piano an organ's glide. The rockin' ragman
whose pop eyed punchlines could cut you quicker, many a
time, than his intingly beautiful lyricism. With the genius
of his songwriting partner, Andy Razaf, they wrote
Broadway plays and made the fragrance of the
Honeysuckle Rose swing in dazzling delight. His life was
the shout "Ain't Misbehavin' with a wolf's smile and his
fingers crossed behind his back. The jive and drive of the
Jitterbug Waltz.
Thanks to Maurice Waller and Anthony Calabrese, we
now have, at last, the fuli story of Fats Waller (Schirmer
Books, $12.95, 256 ppg.), a story that (in the first
chapters alonel) will unveil to you the origins of Harlem
and an accurate, concise background of the Music's
beginnings, as well as its first recordings and some insight
on the recording industry.
It tells about Edward &amp; Adeline Waller, who expected
no Heaven up North but knew what the South held (at
least then) for black people. It speaks of the strong roots
an institution that
of the Wallers in the Black Church
(for them, as many) was a whole society to cut our or
combat the ills of the street's illicitness and hate. Between
the pulpit and the poolroom (literally) came Fats to the
piano stool ("Hey, is all of me down there?") to preach

There are so many others. Duke Ellington, who
stretches from the 20s to forever. Volume / (1926-28):
The Beginning (MCA) features the sassy snarl of
trombonist Joe Nanton and Bubber Miley's trumpet on
tunes like "East St. Louis Toodle-OO” and "Black and Tan
Fantasy," affirming the traditions and the growth; not a
passing of times, but a consistent beginning. Sonny Greer's
drums, as ever, pound with the chimes of Life's pulse.
Billie Holiday. What more can one say about the Lady
and the Blues? Nothing that the sultry grit of her own
recordings and her deep legacy to all singers couldn't say.

perhaps, that this conflict of interest made the revues more
interesting, dramatically speaking. It was certainly
interesting to the black audiences who could see these
the vibrant songs, often

contrasted (sardonically? a choice?) with the thick lipped
watermelon humor that W.A.S.P. audiences of those days
catered to, gave many a blood something to think about
Or feel deep down.

Cork vaudeville
It is time we took a fuller perspective on those times.
The power of Ben Vereen playing a Bert Williams soliloquy
bears fine focus. Williams, the leading black comedian who
had to contend with the cork "blackface" vaudeville of the
day, is shown one night as he is leading his revue in a
particularly tough red neck town. In no time Williams, in
his high stepping fashion (with eyes bulging double-sized
that the "whites" may show) has the audience eating out
if the wild applause was any
of his hand, obviously
kind of indicator. In gracious hostmanship, Williams
thanks the audience and invites them for drinks, on him.
Silence.
The wide toothed grin fades and a look of stark
bewilderment and hurt lines Williams' brow. What's he
done wrong?
The crime is soon revealed. He has broken the
"taboo" of racial "preservation" by encouraging a casual

Young and Buck Clayton (As of yet, we still await the
massive jazz of Columbia's current releases. The Lester
Young Story |s but one set. Stay tuned. MFH). The sound
of drifting trumpet-like tenor and relentless sigh of Truth's
melodic winds in song mingle and the resulting weather
created more than a breeze, then. Now, of course, is the
Time.

A final note of prelude shall deal with Nat King Cole.
A soft resonant voice cutting thru the thick fog and dry
song to make the most beautiful vocalizing ever heard, few
know that his first claim to fame (and his roots) was in his
pianistic skill as a jazz artist. King Cole Trio, Trio Days
(Capitol Jazz Classics) displays "Honeysuckle Rose"
(again) in a sweet duel between Cole (finger painting like
Fatha Hines with Errol Garner looking over the hill), Oscar
Moore's guitar (strums like a piccolo on strings) and
Johnny Miller's bass making beautiful rolling foundation
Nat's "Rhumba Azul" shows the natural lyricism inherent
in the man, something that would be revealed even more in
the evergreen singing of the Christmas Song. A treading of
virtuosity that attained popularity while retaining his
creative integrity.
Sugar for your brew. Merry Christmas and Peace.

�'Staged' is word for
Hall and Oates show
by Pat Carrington
Spectrum Music Staff

One look at the Century Stage
before Daryl Hall, John Oates and
band graced it on Sunday,
December 4, was all anyone
needed to know a show, not just a
concert, was in store for him. An
setup
drums,
elaborate
of
keyboards, and synthesizers rested
on platforms of different levels
around which a staircase curved.
It wasn't just an ordinary stage.
Accordingly,
Hall and Oates
didn't put on a just ordinary act.
The lights darkened and the
five-man band, featuring Caleb
Quaye on guitar and Roger Pope
on drums, took the stage. First
John Oates and then Daryl Hall
made grand entrances to "Don't
Change" from their most recent
album. Beauty on a Back Street.
It differed considerably from the
recorded version, being not as
smooth, but more energized.
The atmosphere was loose, as
Hall fiddled with his electric
piano, asking the audience "Now
what shall I play? How about
"Rich Girl." It was less melodic,
more erratic than the album
version. Hall improvised on the
vocals now and then, leaning on
the piano with a casual air to tell
us about that bitch. They all
looked as though they were
enjoying themselves up there, and
playing excellent music at the

For "Do What You Want, Be
What You Are" from Bigger Than
Both of Us, Hall took the mike
from its stand, and sang, as only
he can do. When he got the
thunderous applause that his
vocals usually elicit, he jumped up
and down and shouted "I know!"
I wonder what.
Each song in the context of
this performance became a work
rather than a mere tune. They all
built to intense pitches, climaxing
rather than ending. Daryl Hall was
quoted recently in the New York
Times as saying: "I want to get
closer to the essence of whatever
is in the songs when they're
created, the initial energy and
tension. I like a lot of feeling in
music, and the original feeling
always gets diluted in the studio."

Moving "Sara Smile"
Oates did the popular, sexy
"I'm Just a Kid (Don't Make Me
Feel Like a Man)," dedicating it
to the girl he hit with the stool. It
was his best song of the evening,

"She's Gone" wasn't as sadly
sweet and emotional as it should

to vocals. Hall and Oates' voices

It almost seemed as though
that was to be it, but when Hall
ran out in a doctor's white coat it
was obvious the whole encore had
also been strategically planned. It
had to be, and was, "Bad Habits
and Infections." When Hall began
to shriek "I am the doctor," Oates
re-entered in a ridiculous doctor's

him, and eventually to drag him
up the stairs to their star, which
parted to let them through. It was
a theatrical ending to a good
show, but something was missing.

was spontaneity,
perhaps sincerity, perhaps just the
soul that H &amp; O are trying to get
away from, but something was
lacking that could have made it

Juice Newton and the Silbert

by a chick with an excellent voice
and a crude sense of humor, were
the opening act. They did a good

showcasing Juice's considerable
vocal telents, and a few oldies like
"Hey Baby" and "Do You Wanna

introduced them. If she'd stick to
the singing and someone else did

New Riders of the Purple Sage, Marin County Line (MCA)
If SanFrancisco rock bands exemplify the experiences of American
rock bands during the '70's, the Grateful Dead represent the
hard-shelled survivors chugging on towards the 80's while the New
Riders typify those who have run out of steam and direction . . . and
have gone to L.A. Ever since the release of Panama Red, their once
Marin County Line, the
giant following has been steadily dwindling
New Riders new album, was apathetically anticipated and, aside from
—

one song, has been receiving little air-play.
The New Riders have undergone many changes in personnel, style,
and image since their first album. Original bass player, Dave Torbert,
was replaced by Skip Battin who subsequently has been replaced by
Stephen Love; Patrick Shanahan has all but overtaken Spencer
Dryden's seat on drums and member Buddy Cage vaguely remembers
the 9 and 1/2 fingered furry guru who recommended him for the pedal
steel position. The New Riders are no longer envisioned as the cosmic
cowboy hipsters, but as lackadaisical lazyboys who imagine themselves
in what seems to be a somewhat self-depreciating manner.
Stephen Love, appearing on his second album for The Riders
supplies new vitality for the group but unfortunately, they seem unable
to incorporate his talents into their musical style. His writing and
singing seems more suitable for L.A. Country rock compatriots Poco or
The Eagles than for The Riders. 'Till I Met You," a ballad that is
probably the best and most honest song on the album sounds like
something off of Poco 7 or 8, (or is that 9?). "Llewelyn," another Love
original, has the booming, pulsating rhythm of the Eagles' "Outlaw
Mart" and I would swear under oath that Randy Meisner is singing the
harmony vocals. Another Love original, "Green Eyes a Flashing," has
the potential to become an AM hit and seems to be getting some
airplay. It has that upbeat rock 'n' rollness to it which makes you able
to hum (or drum) along to it on the first listen, but unfortunately, it's
also not very consistent with what The Riders have been doing in the
past.
As for the older, established Riders in the band, Dave Nelson is
still playing that tired old lick he learner} for "Henry" while
Marmaduke's vocals continue to become more affected (like dagger's,
Elvis', or Ed Sullivan's). Cage though, has improved his pedal steel
playing by trying different techniques rather than reprocessing licks,
which, he has done in the past. Like Love does on Side One, Nelson
and Dawson dominate the music on Side Two. "A Good Woman Likes
to Drink With the Boys" is a song in which Dawson and Nelsor deliver
good vocals and harmonies respectively, unfortunately, though, some
absurd, self-demeaning vocal antics at the end almost ruins the song.
‘Turkey in the Straw" follows immediately; “The Riders" have put
together the most sloppy cover of this song since Donna Reed's son
Jeff's garage band broke up The remainder of the Dawson and Nelson
material, which includes "Twenty Good Men" and "Jasper," are strong
musically but the lyrics are penned and sung with all the conviction
and sincerity of Riders ditties such as "Sutter's Mill."
Marin County Line is their best album since Bruj, but that is only
because their last two albums have been complete disappointments.
The Riders are still a Frisco based band, but like many other weary
rock bands, they have taken refuge in that somewhat' sleazy and
homogenous L.A. sound. Stephen Love seems to be their most
promising writer if they could only figure out a way to tap his talents.
The album's backcover photo seems to paint a rather appropriate
picture of -this group: Our somewhat tainted heroes are Clothed in
outdated garments and are obviously on their way somewhere; where
and what direction, nobody seems to know or care.

song writing in the last two years; she has been too busy making her
career, and taking her career to the public on the concert schedule.
Though she is a great singer and entertainer, her creative
—

„

inspiration stems from her memories of an Eat Tennessee mountain
childhood. Now the direction has changed with only four Parton songs
on this set. She makes no excuses for this, she sees it as a stepping
stone for her own songs and voice. The title song here, "Here You
Come Again," has already outsold any other Parton release. She has

arrived.
It is a disappointment to expect a major musical work from a
major American singer and writer and get the pop and sweet stuff
offered here; strings and five songs a side. No hurting songs. No steel
guitar or country pronunciation that Dolly's got in the mouth. The
hype sheet for this record announces a major event. Extra! It would
have you believe that the writing of Barry Mann, Kenny Rogers, and
Bobby Goldsboro, and the slick, glossy, fold-out cover of the album
designate this LP as superior product. It is not pop music I object to.
Chrystle Gayle found her hit with "Don't it Make My Brown Eyes
Blue" and more power to her. Dolly needs her own strengths and voice.
She needs her songs as they come out of that mountain heritage.
Listen to the radio, AM country or top 40, and hear the title song.
If you like the song, you'll buy the record. Now to the more serious
business. This is an album of love songs. The production is clean and

Dolly on the radio but it don't last. Neither does "Baby Come Out
Tonight" with a long lala chorus. Dolly says that two of the songs that
appear here under her name were written in the studio specifically for
the album. One works and one doesn't. "It's All Wrong, But It's All
Right" is the cliche that you may assume it to be from the title, "...
electric piano synthesized "clink cling-s" that are ruining all of modern
music are here. The other song dashed off in the studio for this LP is a
nice upbeat song for her, "Two Doors Down." "Me and Little Andy,"
and "God's Coloring Book," two older Parton songs, are the highlights
of the album for me. This is the real Dolly. On "Andy" she puts on her
little girl voice that is attractive for some reason. This and "Coloring
Book" fit what I call new songs of faith. After so many bummer songs
from the rock and country music world, some song writers are giving
out affirmative about the order of things. It is a simple kind of ordering
of the world expressed in child like terms, but it's o.k.
The album fills out with John Sebastian's "Lovin' You" featuring
slide guitar and banjo. I've always liked Sebastion songs and this one is
a good one for Dolly. Again, the production is so great to hear
everything. Los Angeles recording is good for things like that.
I look to the day when Dolly really seeks her own path again with
more confidence that more people are listening. Seek your own
country soul, Dolly. And you oughta listen, 'cause that would help her.

Sunshine House: a friend in the darkest hour
by David Andrews

Spectrum Staff Writer

Sunshine House has recently been working in
conjunction with the Sexuality Education Center (SEC).

Originally designed in 1971 as an Acid Rescue Service,
the Sunshine House at 106 Winspear Avenue, a

Since SEC is closed after five p.m., an agreement has been
made whereby the Sunshine House acts as a referral service
for it, taking any calls the SEC normally would.

twenty-four hour confidential, Crises Intervention Center
for University students and anyone in need, deals daily
with suicide, rape, drugs, family, psychiatric and personal
problems.
“In fact, many people think the House was named
after Orange Sunshine, a form of LSD,” said Orin Cohen,
one of its thirty volunteer counselors. Steve Levy, director
of the Sunshine House said that the name actually
stemmed from a desire to bring warmth and light to people
in need.
In addition to the thirty counselors, four who are
Emergency Medical Technicians (EMT), Sunshine House
employs a psychiatrist, a medical staff, and a
pharmacology expert. The medical staff is available
twenty-four hours a day by virtue of a radio dispatch
connected to the house.
Utilization of the medical staff often occurs when a
rape victim needs assistance. Levy said disgustedly that
there have been a lot of on and off campus rapes lately,
added to a steady increase over the last few years, and that
the administration is taking no action.
Suicide handled
Because of the Outreach Service which Sunshine
House offers, the medical staff and two counselors attack
the crisis directly, be it emotional, medical or psychiatric.
Said Levy; “Yet, if someone is attempting suicide, we
won’t trace the call and try to halt it. We are
client-centered.” Cohen added: “We don’t tell a client
which path to take, but we do try to get them to a state of
mind where they can make a rational decision.” Sunshine
House is a short-term crisis service and doesn’t counsel
people on a periodic basis. “We try to alleviate the crisis
right at the moment of the call. We do not make the
solution,” stressed Levy.
He added that if a pregnant girl calls for help, they
won’t tell her to get an abortion. “We will try to relieve
the emotional stress, so she can decide what is right for the
situation,” he stated.

Who’s tripping?
“No one is tripping here” is often a remark when
concert goers recognize counselors persuing through the
aisles. The medical staff and two counselors often provide
guidance and first aid at concerts sponsored by University
Union Activities Board (UUAB). Levy stressed that their
presence at concerts is for the benefit of anyone, not
merely those having bad trips.
He said demand for an Acid Rescue Service has
decreased. “Well tell callers facts on drugs and let them
make the decision to use it or not,” he claimed. Levy said
this is the drug identification service the House offers.
Anyone needing information on the varied aspects of a
drug (whether it is safe to use with liquor, the overdose
level, after-effects of use, etc.) can call Sunshine House,
and a counselor with the use of a Physician Desk
Reference (PDR) will give the caller information.
“One can’t know what goes into a drug now,”
cautioned Levy. “Lately, PCP (angel dust), a drug that
magnifies a users problems, has been sprinkled in
marijuana to strengthen it.”
sif you are seeking refuge from a storm, Sunshine
House offers an Emergency Housing service. Roommate
problems, parental difficulties, or early arrival after a class
instruction break are some reasons you might need shelter.
Levy stated that runaways frequently wander into the
house looking for a place to stay. If they’re less than
sixteen years of age, Sunshine House cannot legally help
them without the risk of a kidnapping charge. Since its
inception, the House has never had a legal suit “We are
allowed to border anyone for a maximum of two days.
After that, if one is still in need of additional aid, we can
refer them elsewhere, said Cohen.
Just walk in
Sunshine House contacts many other agencies to keep
informed about services they offer. Legal, welfare, and
permanent housing counseling are not available, but they

added.
No thank-yous
“In the '60's, people did things for other people, fa
the ’70’s, they are doing things for themselves,” said Lmjt.
He thinks this is the reason why the amount of applicants
to Sunshine House has decreased by about SO percent.
Cohen said that for most agencies relying on volunteer,
the amount of applicants has lessened.
Sunshine House is funded by the Student AssocanSoa
(SA) at this University. SA allows them n budget of
$ 11,000, most of
it covering mortgage, telephone, and

utility expenses.

How successful is Sunshine House? “I deem uc
successful every time someone calls,” Levy said. “We can It
tell if a client’s decision is successful, because we rarely get
thank-you calls. If a person comes to a decision, then its
worth it, even though we may not agree with it.”
Bus signs, public service messages on television, and
Back Page advertisements in The Spectrum, have been
utilized to publicize Sunshine House, where lectures are
often held. On December 23, three representatives of
Sunshine House will appear on Sunday Surprise a
community service television program of WKBW-TV.

“Our philosophy emphasizes that we should help the run-aways
work out their own problems with the guidance and empathy of the
counselors,” said Schroeder. “We offer counseling, not advice. We
don’t attempt to get them to conform to our standards of thinking and
behaving,” Schroeder added. “Emotional help and general information
are the main functions of Compass House in the process of sheltering
run-aways.”

Openness encouraged
CAC, a volunteer community service organization, recruits
volunteers for Compass House and other community service
organizations such as hospitals, day care centers and social service
programs. CAC’s Drug and Youth Counseling program is primarily
concerned with recruiting volunteers for Compass House.
The Director of Compass House, Rich Hayes, said that run aways
“must be opened and trust us. We want them to share their problems
with us and other run-aways.”
Compass House, which has been in existence since 1972, operates.
on federal donations from community organizations and charities. It
houses up to eight run-aways at a time in a coeducational fashion.
There are two all-night resident counselors on duty from the fuU time
staff and two volunteers on duty on any given night. The professional
paid staff, whose members have degrees in social n-iiwc provide
instruction and training to volunteers.
Run-aways are usually referred to Compass House by different
social service agencies and stay at the house from three to five days. At
the end of their stay, some go back home, while others are seat to
foster homes or detention centers. At the beginning of their stay they
must sign a contract agreeing to abide by the rules of the home; an II
p.m. curfew, and no drugs, liquor or weapons are permitted or the
premises. They also agree to attend weekly counsdiig and discussion
groups. Minors must receive the permission of their parents in order to
stay. Those over 16 need no such permission but are enconraged to
notify their parents. Although few of its charges have criminal records.
Compass House is legally obligated to assist the police in criminal
investigation involving one of their residents. Hayes estimates that 90%
of their run-aways are from the vicinity of Buffalo.

College B Players present
Simon’s ‘The Odd Couple
To act or not to act, that is the
question. What turns a good play
into a great production? What
makes an actor run through
practice after practice until he
could drop, and then go out on
stage to give it all in a final
glorious effort?
The College B Players have an
answer to that. Although none of
them are actually theater majors,
all profess a love of acting and a

deep satisfaction from meeting
the challenge of performing
before an audience. The Players
are a group of interested actors
who are members of College B
and have the dedication and
stamina to stage a production on
their own. They will present their
version of Neil Simon’s The Odd
Couple in the Katharine Cornell
Theater tonight and tomorrow
from 8:30-11 p.m.

JSU and HtUel

Jewish Awareness
Week is successful
Jewish Awareness Week at this University concluded Wednesday,
after a very successful program. Jointly sponsored by the Jewish
Student Union (JSU) and Hillel, the festivities commenced last week
with a presentation by world renowned Nazi hunter Baeta Klarsfeld.
Receiving a tremendous response, the non-Jewish Klarsfeld spoke on
her endeavors in tracking down Nazi war criminals.
For two consecutive nights. Rabbi Shlomo Carlbach gave a concert
the
Fillmore Room. Carlbach is a famous Israeli folk singer who
in
generated his audience to both sing and dance along with him. This
event was followed by Israeli dancing led by a professional dancer, Avi
Shahak. Israeli dancing is a semi-weekly event held every Sunday
afternoon and Tuesday evening in Squire Hall’s Fillmore Room. Jewish
Awareness Week ended with a backgammon tournament. Such
tournaments may be sponsored again by the JSU in the hear future,
according to JSU President Mitch Nesenoff.
No Kahane or Exodus
Because of Monday and Tuesday’s heavy snowfall which prompted
the cancellation of classes, former leader of the Jewish Defense League
(JDL), Rabbi Meir Kahane was unable to present his discussion on the
topic “Should we trust what Sadat says.” Since he does not plan to be
in the Buffalo area for some time, Kahane will be unable to reschedule
his lecture. Likewise, because of the mini blizzard, the film “Exodus”
was cancelled and will be shown at an undetermined date next
semester.

“These events are organized in such a way that they have a
purpose,” said Nesenoff, who explained that the purpose “is to create
Jewish awareness on campus, by bringing out the Jewishness in each
student.”
Nesenoff admitted that the program “could have been better if the
two cancelled events had been shown,” but added that JSU will
continue to sponsor events and show films. The organization features a
film every other Monday night in the Squire Conference Theater, free
of charge. Future movies include: “Hester Street” and “Kazablan.”
Nesenoff said that the JSU will have another Jewish Awareness Week
next semester.

The Odd Couple is the story of
Oscar Madison and Felix Unger,
two good friends whom fate
throws together under a single
roof. Oscar, a complete slob, is
protraye&lt;J
convincingly
by
Geoffrey Gerber, who encounters
strong personality conflicts with
Felix, his natural opposite, played
by John Cima. The play evolves
around problems that develop
when Felix’s fastidious cleanliness
clashes with Oscar’s familiar,
sloppy way of life. Gerber admires
the character of Felix and wishes
he could play it although he is
admittedly better suited for the
role of Oscar. “Felix works in a
guilt complex; I admire his mind,”
Gerber says.
Comedy and tragedy
Other College B players have
wide ranging ideas about acting.
“It’s just memorization of lines
until you get out there,” said
Cima. “There’s something about
being in costume that makes you
become the character.” Another
member of the cast said, “WeTe
out there, above all, to have fun.”
Still another said, “I’ll still piss
my pants on stage!”
One of the unique features of
this production is that Gerber,
who is playing a leading role, is
also the director. When asked if
this created any complications,
members of the cast replied,
“Sometimes he can’t see his own
mistakes.” One comments, “His
position is difficult. It’s hard to
objectively offer criticism when
you’re busy thinking about your
next line.” The players have
occasionally brought in outside
spectators to aid with criticism
and directing to some degree.
“The only way I could have
done this is through College B,”
said Gerber. “How else could a
group of non-theater majors
pursue their interests in acting and
have fun without the competition
of the theater department?”
Tickets for the Odd Couple
can be purchased at the door.

Six months ago, under the
Freedom of Information Act,
Beyer Hied a request to obtain his
own personal FBI files. On
October 14, he received word
from the Director of the FBI,
Clarence Kelly, denying his
request on the grounds that he is a
fugitive. On October 20, Beyer
filed yet another request stating
that since he turned himself in at
the Peace Bridge, he was no longer
a fugitive and the denial was

&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).

Dissident students of the late
sixties-early seventies did more
than plant bombs in campus

their off campus neighbors who

riots, free sex, drugs, and filth

radical University students have
persisted,

student of today no longer fits the
description of a hippie.

Special to The Spectrum

On the front page of the Buffalo Evening News of
Thursday, December I, 1977, there was a story by Roland
Powell, News Washington Bureau, headlined “FBI Files
Tell of WNY Drive Against Leftists.’* Parts of that story do
grave injustice to this University. If they are left
uacorrected. The Spectrum readers may be deprived of
understanding an important era of this University’s
history.
The major thrust of Powell’s 70 column-inch report is
that the FBI used a variety of means mostly unethical
to defeat projects and punish people on the FBI’s shit list.
That is hardly news to those of us who, at one time or
another, have tried to improve the quality of life in this
country. There is nothing especially revelatory about FBI
harassment and intimidation
and anyone who reacts
with “shock” is indeed naive.
Now, to specifics. In a woeful display of irresponsible
journalism, Powell writes, “Herbert Aptheker was a
national Communist leader who was invited to speak to
students of the State University of Buffalo (sic) in 1962
...His speech wes arranged after the students heard Sir
Oswald Mosley, a British Fascist leader ...” This is a
damnable tie and an insult to many honorable people still
associated with this University.
I was a member of the Convocations Committee of
the Student Senate in 1962 and, with fellow students,
careftilly selected speakers who could ably represent
various political persuasions. The invitations were all made
at the same time. What is so irritating and so contempt
able is Powell’s assertion, implied if not expressed, that
some untoward influences were at work. Our “Spectrum
of Political Thought” moved from right to left. There was

Halt on dorm construction
by Mark R. Sposato
Spectrum Staff Writer

A controversy over whether this University
should limit the number of students seeking to live
in dormitories is currently developing. Assistant Vice
President for Facilities Planning John Neal has
stated, “There is a moratorium on dorm
construction at this University,” while Project
Manager for the State Dormitory Authority Paul
Moran has countered, “There is no moratorium,
dorm requests are accepted or rejected through the
State University Central Office.”
Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia
sees the problem in a different perspective. “If the
academic departments stop taking over dorm space,
there would be enough space for all students who
wish space, the moratorium is on academic buildings
not dorms,” he commented.
Moran continued, “there have been no requests
for more residence halls from the University of
Buffalo.” He suggested that the possible reason
behind the absence of requests for dorm space here
is a lack of projected enrollment figures, which was
subsequently conformed by the Housing Office,
Facilities banning and the Statistics Department
here. All agreed that no feasible formula exists for
determining just how many students will apply for
dorm space from year to year.
SA solutions
Concerning overcrowding, Delia stated, “There
are two alternatives that SA is considering right now.
One is to eliminate students for housing by allowing
just so many students and no more, and the other is
to get students in housing anyway possible,” and
continued, “SA hopes to clear up the estimation and
planning process used by Housing in determining
how many students will require dorm space from
year to year.”
Assistant Housing Director Madison Boyce
stated, “The main option being considered by
Housing to accommodate excess students in the
future is to reopen Pritchard Hall (formerly Cooke
Hall) on the Main Street Campus at a residence hall,”
a statement confirmed by Neal of Facilities and

Planning. Pritchard is presently occupied by the
Music Department and other administrative offices
which are being transplanted to Amherst.
As the University slowly completes the move to
Amherst in the next few years, Governors and
Ellicott Residence Halls, with capacities of 800 and
3200 students respectively, will remain the sole
residential units there. Clement, Schoellkopf and
Goodyear Halls at Main Street will continue to house
undergraduate students, even after the transition
period is over sometime in the future.
According to Boyce, “The overcrowding
problem is not known for sure until the housing
lottery takes place in April.” Boyce also stated that
“the majority of the problem comes about because
of late registration, and is composed primarily of
freshman and transfer students.”
An editor of the student newspaper at SUMY at
Albany, the ASP, said, “The problem here has
reached the point where students are housed in
hotels off campus. This is arranged by Housing at no
extra cost to students, but there are inconveniences:
no food service, distance from classes, and general
distance from campus activities. The Housing Office
has also converted half of an administrative office
tower into residential rooms. Realizing the shortage
of dorm space, the trend here is for students to move
off campus.”
The student paper at SUNY at Binghamton,
Pipe Dream, has reported, “Half of the incoming
freshmen this fall were tripled in double rooms. Two
hotels were used to house approximately 150
students, mostly transfer students.” The Housing
Office at Binghamton explained its novel approach
to the problem, stating “In midsummer when it
becomes obvious there are not enough dorm rooms,
letters are sent to new students informing them and
encouraging them to come up in the summer, stay in
the dorms temporarily and look for off-campus

housing.”
At SUNY Stonybrook, the managing editor of
The Statesman said that an overcrowding problem
existed there, but that the situation had been largely
overcome by the attrition of dorm students.

Broken plows and

•

*

A weather forecast of more snow and the fact that two big
plows on the Main Street Campus were decommissioned by
transmission problems late Monday night were primary factors in
the decision to keep the University closed yesterday after it had
been shut down at about 3:30 p.m. Monday afternoon, according
to Vice President for Finanace and Management Edward Doty.
He felt yesterday that the University would probably be
opened today, noting however, that the decision to close on
Tuesday had not been reached until S;30 a.m. that morning. Doty
continued that the Amherst Campus had been in workable
condition on Monday night but that approximately 300 cars were
still stuck in Main Street Campus parking lots.

He added, that the open terrain is also partly
responsible for the mice. However, Griffin said that
there have been no complaints since The Spectrum ’s
last story. He confirmed that with the cold weather
and snow causing construction to decrease or stop,
there will be a significant decrease in the mouse
problem.

Director of Custodial Services Richard Cudeck
said that he has received very few calls about mice
since the beginning of November. “With the onset of
colder weather, doors are closed almost all the times,
and mice have less of a chance to enter buildings,”
he said. “Mice dig holes along side the buildings

where the ground is softer,” added Cudeck. He said
that there may be mice at the Governors Residence
Halls, but Eiiicott is the worst.

Autopsy a must

TO N.Y. PORT AUTHORITY

by Joel DiMarco
Staff Writer

Have you ever wondered where
people go after they die? The
usual response to that question
generally involves. Heaven, Hell,
Nirvana, Valhala or some other
but in purely physical
place
terras, all people usually end up in
the same place
the County
Morgue.
It is this place that has the not
too enviable task of determining
who has died of what. But this job
is performed not to merely
discover whether a person was
murdered or committed suicide,
but also keeps track of the general
health of the entire community.
The Coroner’s Office is a kind of
back-up line of defense in
identifying and isolating possible
problems,
potential
poison
epidemics and even fire hazards.
To accomplish all this, medical
examiners (M.E.s) must often pull
a number of skillful and often
seemingly impossible tasks. Partly,
this is true because of the nature
of the work. After all, one can’t
just ask the corpse where it hurts.
Nor can it answer questions like,
“Who killed you?” or even, “Did
the doctor who treated you do
something wrong?”

The police may not act on the
assumption that a homocide has
been committed without the
coroner’s expressed permission.
After the autopsy, a coroner’s
inquest is held. This is a legal
proceeding in which the coroner
presents his findings to the police,

interested parties. These inquests
are often quite routine and

(I’ve been a resident of Buffalo for all my 22
years. In the fall of 1977, 1 moved to New York to

Although all newscasts have something to be
desired, I must agree with William A. O’Brien (Dec.
2) on his comment “Jackass Barry Lillis.” However,
I would like to place the blame on the people of
Buffalo. Buffalo has decayed into mediocrity only

I would like to comment on the letter by
William O’Brian in Friday’s The Spectrum.
I am unfortunate enough to be able to watch
Barry Lillis only once a day, and I don’t let him
insult my intelligence; I simply sit back, light up a
joint, and enjoy “Weather with a Fool."

I am writing this letter in response to Richard
Thill’s letter of 11/30/77. I quote from his letter;
“consider the usual male gay circuit: street cruising,
men’s rooms, gay bars, pathetic ads in the Personal
columns of sex papers. This depersonalized
promiscuity is inherently superficial, squalid and
ungratifying.
Its lovelessness bespeaks serious
emotional problems and is attributable only slightly
to social repression of homosexual practices.”
Unfortunately I find that argument to be
incomplete. Where does Mr. Thill get his information

T.H. Cocoran

Gung-ho Lillis

on the “usual male gay circuit,” and how can he say
“attributable only slightly to social repression of
homosexual practices”? I certainly do not know.
Perhaps Mr. Thill is right. A possible solution to
deviance in sexual relations would be the fitting of
an electric device on each member of society which
would administer increasingly painful electric shocks
to any member who tries to commit deviant sexual
acts.

To the Editor:
A totally ridiculous letter to the editor, written
by William A. O’Brien, appeared in Friday’s edition
of The Spectrum. The letter centered around the
insulting
unprofessional,
uninformative,
and
behavior of Barry Lillis. That’s right, Barry Lillis, the

Useful ‘misdirectory
To the Editor:

gung-ho WGR weatherman who appears nightly on
Channel Two, at six and eteven o’clock.
I would like to ask the author of that puzzling
letter a question. How can the conduct of one man,
who appears for only five minutes on a news
telecast, relegate Buffalo into a “pitiful situation?”
It’s beyond me how anyone could put the blame on
Buffalo’s community problems on a second rate
weatherman. I’m sure outsiders aren’t badmouthing
Buffalo solely on the premise of Mr. Lillis’ actions.
In my opinion, Barry Lillis is doing a fine job of
reporting. Contrary to Mr. O’Brien, I find Mr. Lillis
to be very informative and knowledgeable. Just
because he is a little unorthodox in his manner of
dress and delivery is no reason to jump on the man’s
back. I believe Mr. O’Brien has let his personal
prejudices influence his uncalled for accusations.
Further evidence of Mr. Lillis’ value has shown
in Channel Two’s recent turnabout in its ratings.
Ever since Barry has been employed at WGR, their
news ratings has increased significantly. This has
even prompted the other two local networks to
modify their weather presentations to keep up with
the energetic Mr. Lillis. In addition to giving fine
weather forecasts, Barry frequently takes time out to
promote various community affairs throughout the
Metropolitan area.
To all of the above, Mr. O’Brien has suggested
we get rid of this man and “immediately stop this
shameless insult.” I think the jackass Mr. O’Brien
refers to in this community isn’t Barry Lillis: it is,
indeed, himself.

To the Editor.

This is both a response to three critics of my
letter (dated 30 November), and further information
pointing to the “palace guard” mentality of Sub
Board and those
who supposedly act as our

representatives.

In her letter to The Spectrum (dated 2
Ms. Helen Swede states that I
overestimated Mr. Van Nortwick’s salary (my figure
was around $20,000.) According to her, all I had to
do was ask Mr. Van Nortwick what his salary was
and he’d tell me. I tried that on Friday, 2 December,
but Mr. Van Nortwick was out. Nevertheless, I did
know at the time of my letter exactly what Van
Nortwick’s salary was; Ms. Swede, you must be one
of those people in SA who never read what’s put in
front of you. Van Nortwick’s gross salary is $18,732;
with benefits it comes to $22,745. Ms. Swede, your
ignorance of the facts is as great as the arrogance of
others in Sub Board or on the Council. You are a
prime example of what I stated in my first letter,
that the Sub Board student representatives are not
doing their job with a few exceptions.
Speaking of arrogance, 1 would like to address
Michael Apa’s comments. Mr. Apa signs his letter as
a MFC student; what he doesn’t let anyone know in
his letter is that he is also a “card-carrying”
employee of Sub Board. Mr. Apa is paymaster of the
organization
real courage Mr. Apa. But Mr. Apa
does make some valid points about the GSA budget;
the overhead is too high. So what? Mr. Apa never
bothers to mention Sub Board’s administrative price
tag
192,050 dollars out of a budget of some
750,000 dollars (yes, Mr. Apa 1 know how much you
make too and it’s overpriced too). But one point is
overlooked. GSA reduced its budget last year; Sub
Board increased theirs.

Finally, I would like to address Mr. Zoler’s
comments. He states that the GSA Executive
Committee and myself never came to him and
broached any problems. According to Mitch, if we’d
only go to him and speak with him, our complaints
would have been heard
Ill let someone else point
out the times in which people from GSA approached
Mitch, especially during the summer budget hearings
But the main point I’d like to make is that Mitch
ignores the fact
that Sub Board and its
representatives have a responsibility to inform their
constituents about what’s going on; this has been
done in poor fashion. The only way one learns about
Sub Board’s wheeling and dealing is through an
occasional expose in The Spectrum.
Zoler, Apa and Swede have one common thread
of discussion in their letters. They are all “outraged”
that 1 didn’t have the courtesy to expose them to the
contents of my letter to them prior to publication.
This is tantamount to having them clear my letter
To which 1 say tough! The rntyor forum for public
exposure is the media; in this country’s system of
open communication, no person has to “clear”
anything if the information is correct. “Clearing” is
reserved for sensitive information in a Defense or
privated corporative organization . . . which is where
I think that some people on Sub Board think they
...

are.

All three prove a point I hoped to make; Sub
Board is too powerful an organization to act in
response to students, who are not well organized and
easily coopted. The role of Sub Board should be to
facilitate a better quality of life for the students
here; I find the trend going the other way, that the
students exist and pay dues to facilitate the
independent life of Sub Board.

�PODER boycotts Speakers Bureau
To the Editor.

Poder boycotts Geraldo Rivera
That’s wrong! We are boycotting the Speaker’s
Bureau and those people who want to program our
lives on campus. Geraldo is our brother and part of
our cultural world. We want him here with us and
for everyone at the University to share.
In your ad Geraldo Rivera (by the way, that’s
Rivera, NOT Riviera!) is presented in a box. The
public does not know why he is here or what he is
supposed to speak about. Of course, we assume that
no one is going to see Geraldo except to expand
their experience by gaining an insight into our
culture and what he represents for the broader
culture kt large. Furthermore, we realize the
enormous importance of providing the entire
University community with an insight into the
energy of Latin culture today. That is exactly what
we stand for and what we are trying to do on
campus.

By setting us up against Geraldo, the Speaker’s
commits an act of Political criminal
negligence. They make us look like the bad guys in
the movies. We are forced to demonstrate our
opposition to the politics of the Speaker’s Bureau by
boycotting Geraldo. The people will not understand
our position, they will support Geraldo and line up
on the side of the Speaker’s Bureau against us. These
are the politics and sinister manipulations we reject,
which we wish to expose as detrimental to the
quality of life on campus, for us and for everyone.
Once more someone at this University is trying
to eliminate us by making believe we do not exist
and refusing to consult us or consider us. To invite
Geraldo without our support or participation is a
clear indication that the Speaker’s Bureau wishes to

Bureau decides on its own criteria and for its own

public credibility assassination at high noon. In their
next move they will make us disappear from their

want to know if the Speaker’s Bureau is acting on its
own or under orders. In fact, the entire student
population wants to know, if the Latinos are the
first victims of a Search and Destroy Activities

This letter is an appeal to the entire student

for the improvement of cultural life at the
University, we recommend the following;
1. Full and direct participation in the fusing

The ‘right’ Kulyk
To the Editor:
After having read a number of articles by
Andrew Kulyk, 1 am curious as to why he would
choose the journal of the “bleeding heart liberals” as
a forum to enlighten the University community.
This, in lieu of the fact that there already exists a
journal which, I believe, would be more apropos to
the viewpoints which Mr. Kulyk holds. Furthermore
this paper of which 1 am speaking could aptly be
described as the antithesis of “bleeding heart
liberalism.” It is published in Marietta, Georgia, and
known as the Thunderbolt, the organ of the White
Mans or American Nazi Party. I am sure Mr. Kulyk
would find the Thunderbolt worth his perusal. Also
he wouldn’t be troubled by liberal viewpoints
because the Thunderbolt knows only one viewpoint,
the “right” one.

Documented in Cheektowaga
To the Editor
This is in response to David C. Konstanty’s
letter (Dec. 2) and his questions and allegations
concerning my article (Nov. 30) on Eugene Pierce
and the Suburban Citizens Affirmative Action
Commission. The article, as a first in a series, was
basically intended to lay the background of past
facts in Mr. Pierce’s struggle for equal rights in
Cheektowaga, N.Y., and to bring the reader up to
date.

Mr. Konstanty’s charges of “inaccurate
representation and disruption of truth” are absurd.
The fact is that in putting together this article I
relied on

direct quotes

from

both sides and

previously written documents. I simply reiterated
the chain of events as they happened. If Mr.
Konstanty would like to argue the point, I can prove
to him that everything related in the article is indeed
true, by showing him the accumulated documents
that went into this article.
Mr. Konstanty, you stated that 1 should “keep
in mind that we’re dealing with a town in the U.S.A.,
no the Republic of South Africa.” The fact that
these events have occured right here in the U.S.
makes the matter all the more appalling. But the
truth remains that although two people (the black

Mr. Pierce and

a

white woman) read

the

prepared statement at the Town meeting, only Mr.
Pierce was arrested. I ask you why?
You also stated that, “If Mr. Pierce sees error in
the system, then he must work within the system to
see that the system meets the changing needs of the
community.” Mr. Pierce did try to work things out
with the town through a series of meetings with
Supervisor Meyers. Unfortunately, Pierce and the
SCAAC found the Board unreceptive to what he
feels is an error in the sytstem. If the people who run
the system (the Town Board) refuse to change the
errors in the very same system, how are needed
changes to be brought about? What happens when
the whole system is the error? By reading his
statement at the meeting, Mr. Pierce simply resorted
to what choices were left to him.
Finally Mr. Konstanty, contrary to your beliefs
I am not some “story-hungry journalist.” I do not
simply invent facts or bend truths for the sake of
making a story more readable. Nor do I, as you
suggest, expect fame and fortune out of writing
these articles. I think Mr. Konstanty, that you
should take your own suggestion and read over the
article one more time. Except this time treat it as the
factual report that it is and not as some fictional

Third World Week ’77 organized by the Third
World Student Association as a continuation of
Third World Week ’76 represented an effort to
inform the university as well as the Buffalo
community on the crisis of imperialism and the
resistance to it in the Third World and in the United
States today. The positive response that has been
evidenced shows again the need and the possibility
of gaining a better understanding of the significance
of the different economic and political events in the
United States in relation to the rest of the world as
well as of the Third World in transition. Encouraged
and enthused by this positive response, the Third
World Student Association would strive to continue
organizing such activities in the future. This year’s
event attracted an audience of more than a
thousand, mostly students at U.B., who participated
in one or more of the week’s activities. The plays
staged by the New York Street Theatre Caravan, the
lecture on the present situation in Zimbabwe by
Sister Janice McLaughlin (who was expelled by the
minority regime of lan Smith), the talk by Pablo
Gustavino, a representative of the Chilean resistance
movement,
the

accompanied by a talk/discussion led by Dr. Asante

student from SUNY-Fredonia came to participate

�Changes undergone
in financial aid filing

Editor ’s Note: This article is the first in e three-part series outlining
new changes, meant and methods of obtaining financial aid for
students at this University.
There will be two major changes in filing for Financial Aid at this
University next semester. AH students, whether they are dependent or
independent, will be filing one Financial Aid Form (FAF). The Parents’
Confidential Statement (PCS) has been discontinued. The second
change is that Basic Educational Opportunity Grants (BEOG) can be
applied for on the same FAF form. The regular BEOG application will

Students harass students
by Daniel Hannafin
Spectrum

Stuff Writer

It’s no easy task for a student
to work at this University. While a
student employee is looking over
his shoulder to make sure that no
administrative foot is about to
step on him, it is very likely he’ll
be kicked by a fellow student.
The above lines are not quite as
metaphoric as they may seem.

Walter Avramenko, a student,
works at Richmond cafeteria, and
is supposed to make sure that no
unauthorized persons enter the
cafeteria while meals are being
served. As a result of doing his job
one evening, he had a fork thrown
at
his face. According
to
Avramenko, “I saw someone
eating a meal which I knew he
hadn’t paid for. When I asked him
to leave, he started throwing food
at me. As I was pushing the food
back at him, he picked up a fork
and threw it at me.”
Although this case of physical
violence is an extreme example it
respresentative

student who works in the Porter
claims,
mailroom

constantly being blamed for late

complaints are invalid."
‘

Pub patrons
This mailroom employee feels
that he and his fellow workers
share the burden of most
complaints
against
the mail
service. This is because “we’re the
people with whom students come
into contact,” he says. “Most
students don’t care whose fault it
is that their mail was lost. They’re
angry becuase they didn’t get
their package or letter, and it’s
easiest for them to blame the
mailroom staff.”
The students who work in the
Fargo
mailroom claim they
receive the same kind of invalid
complaints. They were angry
about a letter printed in The
Spectrum which blamed them for
late delivery of mail. One worker
commented, “We deliver the mail
when we receive it. It isn’t our
fault if we don’t get the mail
early.”

One student whose job it is to
check IDs at the Ellicott Pub says
that many students give him “a
hard time.” He says: “Although
they are aware they must show
their ID card to get in, a lot of
students come down here and try
to get in without their ID cards.

They

get angry at me when I
won’t let them in.”

IDdfaputfen
Although
many
students
complain about the rules at the
Pub, it appears that not many are
seriously interested in getting the
rules changed. According to one

bouncer,

students

“Many

complain to me about the rules,
but they know I can’t change
them. I know of only one case
where a student went to the

director of Food Service and
complained about the rules.”
David Stillwell, who works at
the information window in Squire
Hall, says , that workers there
receive their share of harassment.
According to Stillwell, “Students
may rent mailboxes inside the
office here. They are told that
they won’t have access to these
boxes after five o’clock, yet many
insist cm being allowed in after
five.
‘They verbally assault the
workers for doing their job,” he
said, “but they rarely complain to
those responsible for making the
rules.” Stillwell also said he
“knew of a night manager being
swung at by a student.” He called
this case, however, “an isolated
instance.”
In some cases, students who

feel they have been wronged do
seek to blame the right people.
The dissatisfaction with this year’s
ID cards, and the consequent
search for those responsible fo;the
design is a good example of this.
Even thoikgh some students were
trying
through
proper
the
channels to have new cards
designed, workers on the ID card
line received a lot of trouble from
students.
One worker claimed, “Many
students would write their date of
birth on the card. When they did
this,” she said, “we would have to
throw the card away and make a
new one.” Another worker said,
“A lot of students come in for
their ID without their schedule
card. When I tell them I can’t give
them an ID without their schedule
card, they get angry at me.”
Not all students make life
miserable for students who
provide services at this University.
Workers agree that many students
are patient and understanding. It
is these students that employees
are willing to go out of their way
to help. As one mailroom worker
said, “I try my best to help a

In order for students to be considered for Federal campus-based
funds, the FAF form should be returned to the College Scholarship
Service, with the required fee, between January 1 and January 31. The
SUNY at Buffalo Financial Aid Application (Form UB) should be
returned to the University Office of Financial Aid no later than
February 28, 1978. AO upperdass Educational Opportunity Program
(EOP) students are required to follow the above procedure. FAF and
UB forms received by die above date will be given primary
consideration. Those received after that date will be processed in
chronological order and will be subject to remaining funds.
All financial aid awards are based on the need of file student after
taking into consideration the parents’ and students’ contribution, plus
whatever outside awards have been granted. Parents are expected to
contribute towards their dependent children’* education according to
their means, taking into account their income, assets, number of
dependents, and number of dependent children attending college.
The students are expected to contribute part of their baaed
earnings and assets. The final amount of student aid offered by this
University will not exceed the difference between the student’s total
education expenses and the student’s and/or family’s ability to
contribute to their education. Budgets vary according to dependency
status, marital status, and class standing. They vary between
approximately $2,000 for lower division dependent commuter students
to $ 11,850 for a first year married Dental student with no children.
Packages with Financial Aid Applications for the 1978-79
academic year will be available beginning December 19 in the Office of
Financial Aid, 312 Kimball Tower and 167 Millard Fillmore Academic
Complex.

on the tournament’s all-star team. He scored a hat trick and one assist
in the Iowa State contest, and played very well in the Babson game.
Freshman Tim Igo scored the winning goal in the Babson game just
1:34 into the overtime period. However, according to Buffalo coach Ed
Wright, the key to the win was the outstanding goaltending of
sophomore Bill Kaminski, who made many difficult saves in the third
period, when the rest of the team was clearly tired.
Wright also credited goalie Mike Olsen with a key role in the Iowa
State win. “They had some good scoring opportunities early,” Wright
said. “But Olsen was up to the task,” and the momentum swung in
Buffalo’s favor.
The Bulls are now 4-2 and play next on December 12 against
Cortland ai the Tonawanda Sports Center.

Buffalo’s wrestlers also won a tournament this weekend. They
scored 131 points at the RIT Invitational, 25 more points than the
runner-up Kent State. Nineteen teams competed.
The Bulls garnered four individual titles as Tom Jacoutot, Kirk
Anderson, Jeff Wheeler and Paul Curka finished first. Jeff Mitchell
finished second for Buffalo, while Ed Tyrell and Dave Tundo finished
third and Bruce Hadsell finished fourth.

The women’s basketball squad got the season
off to a good start Saturday when they defeated
Oswego 70-59 in Clark Hall. Coach Liz Cousins’
game plan of a pressing defense combined with a
hustling offense worked as the Royals dominated the
action throughout most of the game.
Buffalo did l&gt;ave a few problems in the
beginning of the second half, however. UB had built
up a 12-point lead by the end of the first, so Cousins
decided to give the freshmen on her squad a chance
to play.
At first, that move looked like a mistake, as the
Great Lakers capitalized on UB’s disorganization and
turnovers. Oswego chipped away at the Buffalo lead
until they tied the Royals 44—44 midway through
the second stanza. “When you put inexperience in,
they sometimes react funny to the fullcourt press,”
explained Cousins.
But the coach stuck to that line-up, and
eventually they began to pull away. “They just
needed an adjustment time,” commented Cousins.

More work
Cousins said that her team needs some work on
defense, especially boxing out. “The defense has to
realize that their job is not done when the shot goes
up,” she said. She wasn’t entirely happy with the
way the offense was moving either.
The team was pleased with the enthusiastic
crowd that attended the game, and Cousins was
happy with the way the team reacted to that crowd.
“The players kept their cool with the crowd they
didn’t play to the crowd or get carried away,” she
said.
The Royals’ game against Fredonia on Monday
was postponed because of the weather.

Freshmen centers
The Royals started out slowly, but after they

tied the score at ten all, they never looked back.
Buffalo got their points on teamwork: good passing,
unselfish play and a few steals thrown in for good

Buffalo’s women bowlers suffered their first defeat of the season

teams competing.

Tim Rogers, in his first competitive fencing match ever, won two

fencers as possible, so that they would all gain experience. Bremer also
noted that the team needs more women fencers. Interested women

The swimming Royals opened their season at Brockport Saturday,
and despite a 70—61 loss, Buffalo coach Pamela Noakes felt that it was
a good performance for the Royals. “Everyone did really well. For the

opening meet, it was quite impressive that we almost caught them,”
Noakes said, noting that Brockport is a physical education school.
Carol Scarborough and Sally Cloutier each picked up three wins
for Buffalo, while Mary Drozda added two. Becky Savage and Kim
Andrews also swam a leg of the Royals’ victorious 200 freestyle relay.
Buffalo set six school records, with Scarborough and Savage picking up
two individual records.

The UB men’s swimming team opened its
1977-76 season Saturday against St. Bonaventure, on
the losing end of a 71-42 score.
UB's most glaring weakiiess, the lack of a good
backstroker, hurt them against St. Bonaventure,
according to coach Bill Sanford, now in his 29th
season at the helm. Sophomore Jim Brenner, who
won the 200 yard freestyle, had to repeat in the
backstroke and lost. Sanford said the problem stems
from the absence of last year’s backstroker, Jim
Harding, who is academically ineligible.
The outstanding swimmer of the meet for UB
was Cesar Lopez, who won the 200 yd. breaststroke.
Lopez came within a couple of tenths of a second of
the best time of his life.

The strongest members of the team are
co-captains George Finelli and Chuck Niles. Both
Finelli, a butterflier, and Niles, a sprinter, may
compete in the NCAA championships in Long
Beach, California, during March. Finelli. who ranks
among the top three butterfliers in the state, beat
the NCAA champion in the 200 yard butterfly two

years ago.
Also competing for the Bulls this year will be
junior diver Mike Doran, freshman sprinter A1
Fritzinger and sophomore Paul Glauber. Doran was
UB’s only double winner in individual events (both
the required and optional diving) against the
Bonnies. Glauber, a Student Association (SA) board
member, hasn’t had time to get into condition,
Sanford said.

Two of the most maddening inconveniences of the registration
process at this University, bursar check-stops and long lines, are the
targets of recent changes instituted by the Office of Admissions and
r
Records.
Students with financial liability to the school, traditionally issued
check stops, will no longer be barred from pre-registering. Instead, an
indebted student will be issued a “tentative” schedule card, which will
indicate that its owner still owes money to the school. The student will
have until January 20 to fulfill financial obligations. After that, the
tentative schedule will be wiped out.

If lines for drop and add are long this upcoming semester, at least

Drop and add facilities at the Main Street Campus will not be
weakened by the additions of terminals at Amherst. In fact, the
drop-add process has purportedly been streamlined for this semester
through a programming refinement which should result in quicker
output.

Various departments on campus have volunteered clerical services
to staff the increased facilities at Amherst. According to Associate
Director of Admissions and Records Peter Witteman, last semester s

exactly how many additional students will be registered or aided but
we can estimate that several thousand will be helped.”
Student response as usual was varied on the planned changes.

Immature and irresponsible
Delia explained that Buffalo could use the
SI 1,000 it gives to SASU in annual dues, to hire
professionals who could be sent to Albany to fight
for this University’s needs. He remarked that all the

A number of people rose to the defense
SASU, most notably former SA President Steve
Schwaitz who, many feel, saved the day for the
organization. Schwartz’s vitriolic assessment of his
successor included a contention that Delia s actions
were immature and the Delia’s belief that student
government officials from this University could by
themselves effect substantive legislation in Albany
was absurd.
“This proposal is being done out of
irresponsibility and immaturitySchwartz said.
“The big problem with SASU is what’s happening

not to “pull out and make us carry the load" and
echoed Schwartz’s assertion that withdrawing would

Delia countered Coyne’s remarks by maintaining
that this University and its attorney, Richard Lippes,
have in fact been most responsible for the
governmental promise of TAP awards. He violently
objected to Coyne’s plea not Ur make SASU carry
the load, claiming that Buffalo has been carrying the
load for years. “We’ve been sacrificing ourselves year
after year,” Delia said, “and now we’re being asked
to do it again. It’s about time we worked for
ourselves.”
SA Executive Vice President Andy Lalpnde,
who has been at odds with Delia throughout the
year, admitted that SASU was not the “most
effective body,” but asked the Senate to be realistic.
He termed a Buffalo withdrawal a “knee jerk”
reaction and said “SASU should be given some more
time.”
Delia denied that what he was proposing was a
knee jerk response and said that SASU’s
“backstabbing” has been “going on for a long time.”

�Court hearing on tap today
in GLS vs. Ketter lawsuit
by Danny Puker

as they see fit since this money is in ho way
connected with tuition payments.

Campus Editor

The

Group Legal Services (GLS) suit vs.
University President Robert Ketter for the right to
represent students in court free of charge will begin
with a “show cause order"’ in Federal District Court
today in front of Judge John T. Curtin. The “show
cause order” mandates that GLS prove that there are
sufficient grounds for a case against the University.
The GLS program would be supported by
student mandatory fees and would provide free legal
counseling and representation to students. At the
source of the dispute over the program are the
SUNY-wide guidelines for use of mandatory fees.
Those rules allow fees to be spent for “programs of
educational, social, or cultural enrichment" of
benefit to the canpus community and for “student
services to supplement or add to those provided by
the University.” The Administration has consistently
held that individual representation of a student, as a
concept, falls well outside the guidelines and on
those grounds, Associate Vice President Anthony
Lorenzetti officially rejected the proposal in June,
1977. President Ketter reaffirmed Lorcnzetti’s
decision in July.
Censorship?
Lorenzetti’s opinion was that the program
benefits only the individual and not the campus
community, and that it was not the type of program
that the SUNY Board of Trustees would term “a
student service.” His understanding was that the
“services” portion of the guidelines was meant for
medical-type programs. However, GLS attorney,
Richard Lippes has maintained the sponsor of the
“student services” passage had programs just such as
GLS in mind when he worded it
Lippes, in his brief filed before the Court today,
refers to the mandatory student activity fee
guidelines and says, “It is not the administrative
official’s task to determine whether or not in his
opinion the money is being spent on a worthwhile
function, or to in any other way censor the use of
such money, but rather merely to determine whether
the money spent falls within the guidelines
In other words, GLS believes that the
Administration’s rejection of their proposal is a
violation of the students’ right to spend their money
.

Educational service
Lippes claims that Ketter’s refusal to sign off
any funds requested for individual representation of
students through GLS is a violation of students’
First, Fifth, Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments to
spend their money as they see fit, within the
established guidelines.
The brief states that the Program provided for
legal representation and advice
fdr student
governments, a research and education component, a
public interest law component, and a component to
provide representation and advice to individual
students at this University. He said, “Moreover, since
the Program relies heavily on student volunteers, it
was felt that students could receive educational
benefits not
available in
otherwise
their
undergraduate school career.”
Denial of rights
Lippes believes the Administration is tampering
with students’ constitutional rights. In a previous
case involving the Student Association (SA) of Erie
Community College (ECC), Lippes argued for the
SA’s right to hire an attorney using acitivity fee
money. State Supreme Court Justice John H. Doer
wrote that by denying that opportunity, the ECC
administration had violated the students’ First
amendment rights.
The Spectrum reported in September that
SUNY Chancellor James Kelley reaffirmed Ketter’s
decision against GLS. Kelley, in a letter to Ketter,
said that certain programs might be construed as
"services,” but may still not be “of benefit to the
campus community.” He said, “It is our view that
individual legal representation is of such a private
and personal nature that it doesn’t conform to the
concept of mandatory fees.”
Director of GLS David Brownstein said that
Ketter’s claim of legal reasons is a direct
contradiction with SUNY’s Chief Council Walter
Relihan’s position. Brownstein said, “He told me
that he could definitely defend the University if they
supported our program.” Earlier in The Spectrum,
Brownstein said, “I’d be very surprised to lose” and
Student Association President Dennis Delia said,
“I’m pretty confident about the court case. We have
an incredibly strong case.”

Turn out to

four-course

Tomorrow, the Faculty Senate will vote on the adoption of its
Committee Report on Curricular Structure. The outcome mav have
a profound effect on the academic lives of all undergraduate
students at this University. At issue is the four credits for three
classroom hours system essentially the four course load.
The Committee’s report recommends a shift away from the
current academic structure which allows almost all students to carry
four courses at four credits each. The report’s proposals were
arrived at without substantial student input and without what The
Spectrum feels is adequate attention to the practical difficulties of
implementing the plan.
A strong exhibition of student concern about the report’s
recommendations may influence the Faculty Senate to take a closer
and more responsible lode at what is perhaps the most complicated
and pressing academic issue to be decided at this University in
several years.
The Spectrum implores all students to attend the meeting of
the Faculty Senate tomorrow at 2 p.m. in the Talbert Hall banquet
hall (ground floor) on the Amherst Campus. Should the report be
adopted, as appears likely, the already severe problems of
overcrowded classrooms, inadequate bus service and shortage of
faculty lines may be significantly worsened. The number, size, and
frequency of courses presently offered at this University can barely
be handled by existing facilities and staff. The effect of any
thickening of the schedule is, at this time, immeasurable. This is
precisely the reason tomorrow’s meeting is so important.
Accordingly, The Spectrum would expect to see a large percentage
of Student Association Senators present and representing their
constituents. Tomorrow, 2 pjn., Talbert Banquet Hall.

DOB ruling due

Library faculty waits
for decision on quotas
by Bnd Bermudez
Spectrum Staff Writer

The rank quota system for University faculty members, rescinded
by the State Division of the Budget (DOB) in October, may still apply
to members of the library faculty, according to Chairman of the
Faculty Senate Jonathan Reichert.
The quota system, which was instituted by DOB in September,
limits the number of high rank professors at SUNY schools. The quota
was rescinded as a result of pressure from dissenting faculty members
throughout the SUNY system.
The revocation of the quota left the status of library faculty
members in question according to Reichert. Executive Vice President
Albert Somit stated, “I think some of the people in the DOB believe
that library faculty members don’t have the same status as other
ranking faculty members.”
“We’ve been met with a continual blank wall,” said Assistant
Librarian and Professor Susan Chamberlin. No one is sure who will
make the decision about the status of library officials or when it will
come, according to Chamberlin. A group of visiting SUNY provosts
from the central office in Albany were unable to provide any
information, Chamberlin said.

Temporary quota
A resolution was passed by the Faculty Senate Executive
Committee November 16 condemning the quota system for library
officials. SUNY officials are still awaiting a decision from the DOB
which may be disclosed in 3-4 weeks, according to Assistant Director
of Libraries Saktidas Roy. Iq the meantime, Roy said, the library
faculty is being subjected to a temporary quota established by SUNY
officials. “We are getting support from the executive office.” he added.
Existing bodies within Faculty committees have been making
efforts to bring about a decision, according to Chamberlin. “It is not an
organized, spearhead thing. However, we are getting strong support
from faculty members and the executive office,” she claimed. The
executive office has been sending letters each week to Albany in an
attempt to coerce DOB to action, Somit said.
No SUNY effort
Chamberlin related, “When the question was first brought up. Dr.
Ketter stated that he hadn’t noted any effort on the part of other
SUNY schools to protest the matter.” This was probably due to the
fact that most of the other schools have much smaller library staffs,
and therefore the matter doesn’t affect these schools as much.”
The burden was thrown on to the Library Faculty Committee to
prove that the quota system is not an accepted practice at colleges
throughout the country, according to Chamberlin.
The fate of the quota for library faculty members now lies in the
hands of DOB, and University officials must await the decision,
Reichert said.

Shadows of the past remain

Not so many years ago, die

today complain are driving diem
drazy and draining their funds,
did in fact house the poor and
mentally insane.
University Archivist Shawney
Flanigan explained the origin of
the old grey stone buildings on
die Main Street campus and their
uses through time.
Before the University bought
die land on which the Main Street
Campus is located, it was owned
by Erie County. The old grey
stone buildings still on campus
were built by Erie County to
house the Erie County Alms
(poor) House. These include
Hayes Hall, Townsend, Wende
(Hocfastetter), and the Vivarium.
The Erie County Alms House
institution was created in 1828 to
take care of people who were
immigrants,
stranded,
poor,
and/or mentally insane.
The Alms house was originally
located on Porter Avenue where
the Holy Angels School is now
located. Then,' in 18S0, Erie
County bought the area on Main
Street known as the Buffalo Plains
the area that the University
now occupies. The price then for
die 154 acres was S 10,000.
-

Wende Morgue
In 1874 Hayes Hall was built
and used as the administration
building and housed wards for the
Erie County Hospital for the
insane. The Vivarium located
behind Hayes Hall was then a
heating plant for the buildings. A
poor house stood and was used
for the indigent, sick, poor and
mentally insane. This building was
tom down in order to make room
for Crosby Hall, built in the
1930’s.
Townsend Hall was a home for
the nurses that worked at the
Alms House. There also was a

Crosby, called the Bunk House
and used as a home for the
interns. The older part of Wende
was a group of buildings. They
included a maternity hospital,
bams because it was the outer city
limits,
and a morgue. An
ambulance garage was located
where the Abbott Library now
stands.
In the 1850’s cholera hit
Buffalo. It hit especially hard at
the Alma house, which was
criticized for bad living conditions
and its poor nutrition program.
Whole families were admitted but
children were later removed for
their own health and protection
and put into orphanages and
foster homes. It was said that the
Alms house reminded one of
Charles Dickens’ description of
debtors’ prison.
cottage

Hayes Hall hollowed
In 1909, the University of
Buffalo purchased 104 of the
acres for $54,300. This was
extremely less than the actual
value but the County sold it for
this price because it was to be
used for a teaching institution.
In 1909,UB did not amount to
very much. Most people thought
the school did not need all the
land it had purchased. The leaders
of the University though had
visions and thus wanted an
undergraduate college to be called
the College of Arts and Sciences.
Ironically, approximately 1000
more acres have been used and
needed to facilitate expansion at
the Amherst campus today.
The poor house still operated
after UB purchased the land. It
remained on campus until 1920,
then moved to Alden, New York.
An interesting story has been
told to Finnigan by someone who
was at the University for a long
time. It was said that if a member
of the faculty threw a cigar butt

Gut and shell
The first building to be
constructed by the University was
Foster Hall in 1922. This held the
Chancellor’s office and science
labs. It was inaugurated at the
same time that Samuel P. Capen
was named Chancellor.
Hayes Hall was completely
gutted and only the shell was
used. The clock tower was put on
by Mrs. E. Butler whose husband
published The Buffalo Evening
News. Remodeled in 1927, it
became the main administration

building, and student lounge.
1922, what is now
In
Townsend was called Science Hall.
It was renamed the name
Townsend Hall which was located
downtown and was transferred to
its present location.
In the 1950’s while new
roadways were being put in, bones
from a cemetery of the Alms
house were dug up.
The Erie County Home and
Infirmary succeeded the Alms
House. The Infirmary kept their
records which are invaluable for
research use and historic purposes.

KKK shows up at
Common Council
by David Levy
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Two men wearing white robes and claiming to represent the Erie
County chapter of the Klu KIux Klan (KKK) interrupted a meeting of

the Buffalo Common Council last week.
Council President Delmar L. Mitchell ordered the two men
removed from the meeting. The pair was led out without incident by
Council Sergeant-at-Arms Joel Giambra and Deputy Police
Commissioner Anthony Custodi. Nevertheless, the visit by the
white-supremacists jolted the proceedings.
The two men identified themselves as Wayne Whiteside, who is in
charge of the Klan’s local chapter and Klan membeV' Robert C.
Karnath.
According to Whiteside, the KKK is protesting the Common
Council’s November 15 resolution which branded the KKK as “not
welcome” in the city of Buffalo.
Whiteside called the resolution “entirely irresponsible” and not
justified in any way. “There are no grounds for the Common Council
to censure any type of organization regardless of personal feelings,”
said Whiteside.
Hie Whiteside’s showing
Apparently the two men used an area known as Floor 12% to
change from their street clothes to their white robes. The area is just
below the 13th floor and houses heating pipes.
In an interview with The Spectrum after the incident, Whiteside
said the KKK planned to “expand its operations in the Buffalo area,”
and to “promote the good qualities of the Klan.” Whiteside would not
divulge the number of Klan members in the area.
In a comment on the Buffalo mayoral elections, Whiteside
maintained that the election of James Griffin was a “responsible move”
on the part of the citizens of Buffalo. If Arthur Eve had been elected,
Whiteside claimed that “Buffalo would go down even farther than it
already is.”

maintains that the ERA does not
mandate homosexual marriage,
rather the decision is left to each
state. Under the ERA women are
eligible for the draft since the
passage of it would mean equal
status for both sexes.
To date 35 states have ratified
the ERA and three more states are
needed by March 22, 1979 to
constitute a three-fourths
majority. Recently there has been
a move by pro-ERA groups to
seek an extension of the
seven-year deadline set in 1972 by
Congress. What are the chances
that Congress would approve an

extension of seven years?
“It is extremely unlikely to
happen,” according to State
Senator Dale Volkcr (R., Depew).
He contends that the mood of the
country is changing and people
don’t want controversy over the
ERA to drag on for another seven
years. Volker says he supports
equal rights for women but feels
that the ERA, as it is worded, will
only add to the confusion because
it is not specific enough- He insists
that problems could occur with
the ERA if ratified, such as the
draft, because the majority of
women would not want to be
drafted.

‘Approach is wrong’
One of the issues to come up in
the ERA battle concerns
homosexuals and “would have a

Volker, “by knocking out all laws

ERA would do away with them
completely. When asked if he
thought the ERA would be
ratified he flatly stated “no.” The
pro-ERA people are not wrong in
wanting equal rights, but they’re
wrong in their approach,” he
emphasized.
In an editorial on November
15, the Buffalo Evening News
criticized the attempt to extend
the seven-year deadline even
though they support the ERA
itself. The Carter Administration,
much publicized for its human
rights campaign, plans to lend
support for the extension.
Obviously this is a many sided
issue with valid arguments on
both parts.
How do students here feel
about the ERA? ‘T’m not really
that informed about it,” said one
male, “but from what I’ve seen,
it’s redundant. I don’t see any real
need for the ERA.” Another male
said, “I’d have to go along with
it.” Of those students questioned.
most are overwhelmingly in favor
of equal rights for women but
express their dissatisfaction with
the wording of the ERA. “Stated
the way it is I think it’s too vague.
The idea behind it is good,” said a
female student. “However,”
remarked another, “twenty-four
words do not make an
amendment.”

Tacky tax
In other Council news, an attempt to override Mayor Makowski’s
veto of a resolution to refund the occupancy tax failed by one vote.
Twelve votes were needed to negate that veto but only eleven votes

were garnered.
As a result of that vote, the city will hold on to the $823,000
already collected for 1976-77. Presumably the city will continue to try
to obtain the $8, $10 and $12 payments from those city residents who
have refused to pay."’
Mayor Makowski vetoed the October 19 resolution for a number
of reasons. Makowski pointed out that there was no legal precedent for
the refund, which in any case, would possibly violate the state’s
constitution. Makowski also thought that the resolution constituted an
unwarranted intrusion by the Council into the fiscal responsibilities of
the Mayor and city comptroller Robert Whelan.
The controversial occupancy tax was adopted in 1976 as a means
of underwriting a Buffalo Municipal Housing Authority deficit of $1.5
million. The revenue projection from the tax was never met.
City Councilmen were hoping to use the $1.8 million property tax
settlement from the Penn Central Railroad to cover the refund, but
there is apparently no hope now for city residents to get back their
money. The occupancy tax, after a brief, controversial life, has been
laid to rest for 1977.

To the Editor

;

SASU referendum upcoming
The question of whether the Student Association (SA) here should
withdraw from SASU. soon to bo handed to the student body in a
general referendum, is one of the most perplexing and far reaching
campus issues to arise in several years. The future of the state-wide
student lobbying organization conceivably rests on the outcome of that
ota. The Student Senate voted Thursday by 16-9-5 to remain within
SASU. while the SA Executive Committee is virtually unanimous in
seeking SA's withdrawal. At this time. The Spectrum will refrain from
making an editorial comment on the matter in hopes of gamering and
presenting more pertinent information to the student public.
Considering the ramifications of the referendum, students are urged to
inform themselves es much es possible in order to meke a wise decision.

What irks me about Andrew A. Kulyk’s letter
(The Spectrum, Nov. 30) is not his opposition to
capital punishment alone, but rather his unwarranted
demagogic, arrogant, rabblerousing tone and his
furious, almost pathetic, cliche ridden phrases that
would have found a comfortable home in the
reckless 1970 “hard hat” riots of New York.
In his eight paragraphs, Mr. Kulyk used the term
“liberal” or “liberalism” six times, and "bleeding
heart” four times: such rhetoric, used in an
extremely provocative context, serves to arouse
anger on both sides, which allows him to skirt the
concrete issues upon which an intelligent decision
regarding this subject must be based. Will killing the
convicted ressurect the dead? Would people who
murder on impulse take the death penalty into

tracks perfectly? Can you show any instance where
capital punishment has been a deterrent? And can
we possibly consider ourselves, as a society, more
civil than the convicted if we resorted to killing
'
.
themt
I bring up these arguments simply to show how
Mr. Kulyk has not addressed himself to any of them.
His preference is to attach a political label to a side
of an issue that is essentially moral in nature, and to
encourage the police to be trigger happy. If Mr.
Kulyk truly wishes to have an intelligent discussion
regarding capital punishment, 1 would suggest that
he refrain from the provocative, inflammatory
rhetoric that he relics on.

and perhaps should be temepred with the realism of

However the point of my letter is this: in the
future, Mr. Kulyk, in presenting an argument, would
do better not to take it upon himself to voice the
opinions of a group or an individual representative of
that group. Mr. Jay Rosen, even if he is to be chosen
as the agent of bleeding heart liberals, did not
suggest the suspected police killers were martyrs for
a cause and probably does not claim innocence on
the part of the suspects in connection with the
killings (if they are the killers). Obviously, they
should be held responsible for their deeds. However,
Mr. Kulyk, through exaggeration and distortion of a
contrasting point of view, loses credibility for his
own argument.

Plaudits and congratulations are due the ID Card Committee for
hurdling the many obstacles it encountered and arriving at an
expeditious yet well thought out decision. Considering all the name
calling and half truths that were evidenced before the Committee
convened, it is truly remarkable that its members were able to solve the
card's problems in such a short period of time. It was a wise decision to
reject an Administration proposal that would distribute cards in
January only to freshmen and transfers in order to get the kinks out,
then disperse them to everyone in April, considering the added delay
students would be forced to endure.
The successes of the Committee serve only to demonstrate that
students and administrators can work together when given the chance.

Heim Outavitz was a schizophrenic young man.
Actually he was not sure if he was or was not. At
times he saw himself as a perfectly normal toll
collector at a suspension bridge in Kansas. He
sometimes though, became a crazed, cigar chomping,
vegomatic repairman who prowled the streets at
night
looking
for
drunken carrots and
down-on-their-luck eggplants. It was at these times
of decadence that he felt himself neurotic, though he
certainly was proud of his slick opening line which
was: “Haven’t 1 peeled you here before?”
In everyday life Heim was a college student
majoring in the anthropology of drum majorettes
with a minor in bauxite mining in the South of
France, though he had never been even to the North
of France, unless you count that bottle of French
wine he had ordered in a northern hardware store
only to be told that brand had been discontinued.
But this is neither here nor there, which is an
accurate description of Heim’s life.
He had always found it difficult to blend it with
his peers, since he had little idea what the phrase
meant. He once believed it to be “blending in with
his piers” and appropriately, purchased a rotted
wooden pier in Council Bluffs, Iowa, dressed himself
in grey, splintered clothing, and lay supine on the
surface with his right arm in the icy water. He also
ate pounds of chocolate cake so that his face
continually broke out, thus creating the illusion of
barnacles.
Heim had delusions of grandeur quite often.
They usually ended in disaster. He thought he was a
brain surgeon once. After disassembling the patient’s
brain and putting it back together, he suddenly
looked up and said, “Heavens, I’ve lost the
cerebellum!” His nurse said, “Well, where did you
have it last?”
Perhaps this was the reason for his relative
lunacy. He never liked to run with the crowd. He
refused to drive on the right side of the road simply
because everyorie else did, and decided that red
lights were a communist infiltration mechanism. He
even placed a candy gram to the House Unamerican

espionage, but they failed to reply, he assumed
because they did not favor chocolate-covered
cashews. Even still, he attempted to get secrets out
of the traffic lights by discreetly offering them
bottles of Russian Vodka and full-color posters of
Olga Korbut.
Heim Outavitz took a lot of kidding about his
name and thus became quite sensitive. His
obtrusiveness turned him into an introvert so much
so that at Christmas time, he hibernated by dressing
himself as a package and sneaking into a department
store window with only a paperback guide to shower
massages to read. It was a mind easing respite until
somebody put him on lay-away and left him there.
When Heim signed the lease for his one-bedroom
flat, he did not take the landlord literally and was
very surprised to find one bedroom completely flat,
that is, the ceiling touched the floor. This made
sleeping nearly impossible, so Heim stayed up
through many a night, cursing his landlord and filing
his fingernails into elaborately shaped nuclear
warheads.
When Heim bought a small foreign car, he again
did not take the salesman literally and was dismayed
to find that the car was made strictly for small
foreigners. The numbers of the speedometer were
written in tiny Japanese letters, the car only took
gasoline extracted from the mountains of Sicily and
the radio only played Icelandic folk songs. It was so
small that a number of times he swallowed his knees
while driving. He could never fully comprehend how
this happened, since he was able to fit the car in his
vest pocket and did so, quite often. He could not
however, fit his knees in his vest pocket which he
saw as one of those apparent contradictions.
Heim
Outavitz’ life was a series of
contradictions. He considered himself a rational
person, yet often found himself doing crazy,
unexplainable things such as showing up at Bowling
for Dollars disguised as a Redwood Tree. Everything
went fine until the host of the show threatened to
slice him up into so many picnic tables.
Heim decided that he was, after all, basically
Outavitz.

�Diamond nosed director
To the Editor:
The Spectrum performed a major public service
for the students of this University in its article on
November 14 entitled “Students and faculty snarling
computers" by warning them of the “hard nosed"
attitude of the Director of Computer Services
toward “antisocial” people “evading” the computer
archiving system. It might be of interest to users of
the computer to know just how hard nosed the
Director is.
One day in October a faculty member in the
Department of Computer Science had the output
from five computer runs confiscated by order of the
Director (it was returned two days later under strong
protest) and had access to five of his computer
accounts disabled by order of the Director (they
were all enabled within a week, again after strong
protest because this faculty member had displeased
the Director. He had not, I emphasize, violated anyv
defined policy nor was a shred of evidence adduced
by
the Director that he had done so.
Diamond-nosed, you might say.
Now after much correspondence and protest,
we, students and faculty alike, are only threatened
“request
with a
for disciplinary
action.”
Nevertheless, he still
has not defined an
understandable policy about an archiving system

which one of my colleagues has defined as
“antiquated and potentially destructive”. Nor has he
presented any evidence that a problem exists now or
is likely to exist in any foraeeable future or that any
user, student or faculty member, of the computer
facilities has acted in other than a responsible way.
Still at least he appears to have undergone a belated
conversion to due process instead of acting as
legislator, judge and jury himself. We might It this
stage in his development call him wooden-nosed.
All of us, students and faculty alike, have an
obligation to use all the facilities here responsibly
which means, at least, that our use should not
hamper the use of others. But at the same time we
have a right to demand administrative policies which
are motivated by appropriate evidence and clearly
defined and where accusations of supposed
violations are supported by accompanying data'. We
also have a right to demand that, instead of
threatening users with disciplinary action, the
services provided should be first rate rather than
second rate and antiquated. When in fact both
students as well as faculty demand their rights we
shall perhaps find that administrators like the
Director become positively putty-nosed.

Forecast is rain
To the Editor:

I am writing this as a concerned student
concerned with the ill-advised comments made by,
Mr. O’Brien concerning one of Buffalo’s institutions:
weatherman Barry Lillis.
It is well to remember that Barry has what can
be considered the easiest job in the world
that of
forecasting the weather in Buffalo. His job entails
reporting rain in the forecast from May to October,
and snow in it the rest of the year. Remember he
doesn't have to ever be right. If it rains or snows
then he was right and you can’t fault the guy for
being right; if however for some stupid reason the
—

sun comes out, are you going to get mad because the
weather forecast called for rain? Not in Buffalo, 1
don’t think you would. It is Barry that brings light
into our eyes with his witty tongue and ridiculous
actions; who else would wear 47 T-shirts or put the
upcoming weather into one word and describe it as
“miserable,” “cruddy,” “horrendous” or “Yeccch.”
That is absoluetly excellent.
So Mr. O’Brien, you can attack our school, our
city (NYC) or even our poltical beliefs but you can’t
attack our Barry.

Concerned Students for Preservation of Barry.

United Way thanks
effort

I would like to take this opportunity to publicly
thank all of the organizations and students that
helped us make the first coordinated effort to raise
money for the United Way a success.
On a completely voluntary basis, individuals in
organizations suph as Tau Kappa Epsilon and Sigma
Tau Gamma fraternities, Chi Omega sorority, College
H, Ski Club, Inter-Residence Council, members of
the Student Association, University Union Activities
Board, and The Spectrum gave extensive time and

the many fund-raising events that were
organized to raise money for the United Way.
Thanks to all of them we were able to
contribute approximately $2000 (two thousand
dollars) to the October United Way Campaign. These
few words of appreciation go a small way to honor
them for their outstanding and worth} achievement
on behalf of those less fortunate.
Thanks again.

No to SASU

by Mark Teitelbaum
Damn, it’s due tomorrow and my lab partner, Debbie Thompson,
has the results. Looking through the 500 or so Thompsons listed in the
Buffalo Telephone Directory only adds to the pain in the pit of my
stomach. Oh well, it’s only 2.5 percent of my grade.
Through my sophomore year (1974-75), the University was still
publishing a directory listing the students and faculty, unfortunately
none were available to the students. By fall semester 1975 it wasn’t
even any use stealing one; student names had been deleted. Oh well,
A.A. Thompson, does Debbie live here?
Figuring MGM 499, an Independent Study in Marketing would sit
well on a transcript, 1 began “A Feasibility Study for a Student
Directory at SUNYAB.” Demand forecast, market potential, consumer
acceptance, 700 interviews, 23,000 lines of computer printout and
several hundred dollars in out of pocket expenses later it was complete,
maybe even feasible.
As University Directories Inc., the directory was underway in May.
1976. The line “16 hours a day, 7 days a week is greatly overused. In
this case it is not In the next six months I learned the meaning of
work. The most time consuming and by far the most difficult task In
publishing a directory is to sell advertising. One has a breakeven cost of
around $25,000. Above that there is profit, below that, loss. It is not
an easy figure to reach.
Many merchants don’t like you, the University at Buffalo student
That’s funny, because you spend a lot at their establishments. Others,
and I can honestly say the majority, do want you, do offer you good
products, back up what they sell, charge reasonable prices, and do care
about you. Many of the later do advertise in The Spectrum and the
Student Directory. As a practical matter, they bring you these
publications. One last word: check these Businesses out, they are good
people.
Getting back to the directory, last year after a lot of hard work we
published the directory. Unfortunately, there was an error in the
housing computer tape and 2200 dorm addresses along with the first
three digits of the corresponding phone numbers were incorrect. The
person most deeply hurt by this was
me. My only consolation was
that the directory was still used 3.7 times per week by the “average

have felt that SASU was simply a waste of our
money, but now, after SASU has apparently stabbed
us in the back in favor of Stony Brook, a

“unwise.”

why should we remain in that
organization?
Friday’s The Spectrum quoted several SASU
delegates on why Buffalo should remain a member.
Steve AUinger implored Buffalo to remain in SASU
“for the sake of unity.” Clare Reardon said “this
oiganization is based on unity,” and asked SA
President Dennis Delia to reconsider his decision to

student.”
After learning of the error last year, Dick Canale, assistant director
of Admissions and Records, supervised the computer program. We ran
test tapes to see that the error was corrected and it was. We were
assured this "ear the listings would be correct. They weren’t. A new
error developed with the dorm students.
At this time, I wish to regress a moment and describe University
Directories Inc.’s relationship to the school. Under the sponsorship of
the Sub-Board Inc. and at no cost to the school or students, it has
agreed to publish the directory. University Directories Inc. is a private
outside contractor; it does not have access to University files as such.
In our contract with Sub-Board Inc., the first paragraph reads as
follow:

“1. Sub-Board hereby agrees to supply (University) Directories
(Inc.) a computer printout of the names, local addresses, local phone
number and permanent address of all students at the State University
of New York at Buffalo, except those who choose not to be listed.
Such names, local addresses, and local phone numbers will be delivered
to Directories no later than September 20, 1977.”
That paragraph tells how we got the names of the directory, who is
responsible and perhaps what happened. Having worked with
computers myself, I took the logical necessary steps to avoid a
repetition of the problem from last year. On the I.D. lines, under the
auspices of Sub-Board we had directory information update forms
available and many thousands of students took advantage of them. We
went to Admissions and Records, spoke to Dick Canale, had the error
corrected, and ran a test page to insure that error would not be
repeated. Dick Canale, for his part, was most cooperative and saw to
the corrections. Throughout, Sub-Board was most helpful and offered
their assistance where ever it might be needed. Finally, when I picked
up the final printout I looked up a few friends and their addresses were
correct.
Fault, blame and responsibility all parties concerned share. 1 did
not run a more thorough check on the printout. Admissions and
Records made the actual error. Sub-Board as the party who supplied
the printout.
Again 1 apologize for the error. I and the other students both
current and former, involved with the project are most hurt by the
damage this error causes. We sweated, toiled, and put together a
directory as best we could. The consolation I can offer the student
body is that it did not cost you anything, and you are none the worse
with it.

The same backwards logic that led SASU to
lobby for construction funds for Stony Brook,
thereby hurting Buffalo, is evident here. AUinger,
Reardon and Clifford are telling us what Buffalo can
do for SASU. They failed to tell us what SASU can
do for Buffalo.
If the best reason they can give for Buffalo to
join is that it would help them immeasurably, then
SASU is in poor shape indeed. And Delia is certainly
correct when he says it’s stupid to pay someone
$11,000 to fight against you.

I’d like to end on an optimistic note. Most of the listings are
correct. In the dorms the addresses are correct, and phone numbers can
always be obtained through the campus operator (a service unavailable
for off-campus students who in many cases have a phone in only one
name and often of a roommate). There is a full listing of departments,

useful on-campus service section, and a yellow page section full of
merchants who are sincerely interested in your business and will work
hard to keep it. Lastly, when a number is incorrect, you can always just
add the correct one and use the directory as it should be used.
My sincerest apologies.

�Blizzard of 78

Buffalo residents
get ready for snow
by Colleen LaBarre

Spectrum

Staff Writer

Are Buffalonians preparing themselves for a Blizzard of ’78? The
answer seems to be a chilling “yes.”
Retail sales managers of snowblowers in the Buffalo area agreed
that people are getting ready for bad weather now. One manager
stated, “To a certain degree the increase in sales is due to the people
who anticipate a repeat of last winter.’* Not only have the sales gone
up, but instead of the buying season for snowblowers starting in
August and September, they started in July.
The make of snowblowers that this store handles was sold out and
the store ordered more from the midwest and Canada, only to be sold
out again. The manager felt sales will stay up through next year,
therefore his next order will be larger.
Snowblowers have changed since last year. One dealer claimed that
each model has gone up approximately sixty dollars in price. One new
model has an electric starter. Some models have a two-tier system of
snowblowing. It first takes off the top layer of snow and then the
ground level.
Here comes the sun?
Another dealer that handles various makes of snowblowers also
reported that sales are up. He feels the storm triggered people’s minds
into thinking about better snow removal equipment. “Everything is
sold out with a few exceptions.” he stated. “I did not order any more
the people who were going to buy snowblowers because of last
year’s blizzard have already purchased one. The sales started in August
instead of the usual October." He does not expect another large
demand unless we get a similar blizzard.
He his a different view than other dealers about ordering for next
season. He stated, “The market will be saturated with snowblowers by
next season. Hie demand will not be more than usual so my ordering
amounts will remain the same.”
Four-wheel drive vehicles have also enjoyed an increase in sales. An
owner of four-wheel drive trucks and jeeps for eleven years said that he
■uni.iiy waits at the most a month for his jeeps to come in. This year
though he ordered one in March and did not receive it until July. He
mentioned that he has never encountered suph a backlog on these
.vehicles.
Are people overreacting? What is the weather really going to be
like?
Astronomer at the Buffalo Society of Natural Sciences Erast Both
■ill, “The meteorologists are being cagey about the whole thing. They
yw that it is going to be a colder than normal winter. We are also
supposed to have two to four more years of the same kind of rotten
winters.” He predicted a winter not much different than last but
probably without the blizzard.
“Last year’s blizzard was due to unusual weather conditions off
the west coast,” he stated. “Usually the winds from the Pacific will
dump the snow on the Rockies, but last year the winds went to the
arctic and then south and dumped everything on Buffalo.

A foreignfilm on America?

What happens when a foreign director decides to
make a movie about the American Frontier West? In
the case of Frenchman Claude Lelouch and his film
Another Man, Another Chance, he gives it a
distinctly European flavor.
The scene is Paris, 1871. While working in her
father’s bakery, Jeanne (Genevieve Bujold) meets
Huster),
a young
Leroy (Francis
Francis
photographer who is taking pictures of the
breadlines. He has decided to go to America and
start A new life, and Jeanne, suddenly infatuated
with the idea of taking pictures in a new world,
decides to break her engagement to a young military
officer and join him.
Meanwhile, on the other side of the world,
David Williams (James Caan), an American
veterinarian, is having problems with his wife. She
(Jennifer Warren) wants to move to Philadelphia,
and is threatening to take their newborn son with
her. But she is murdered by a group of bandits and
David is left to raise the nhjlrf by himself.
Seeking a fresh start, he moves to another town
and eventually crosses paths with Jeanne, who has
left her little girl in the same boarding school that
David’s son attends.
-w‘

The story unfolds in a typically delightful
French manner, leisurely cross-cutting between the
lives of Jeanne and David. Lelouch s camera
technique is particularly attractive, avoiding the
ponderosity that could easily result in the telling of
parallel stories by filming many scenes with a single
camera. This technique seems confusing at first,
following people through hallways and down streets,
and shifting focus from one person to another, but it
soon emerges as a simple, fluid means of filling in the
details of each scene.
The music, by longtime Lelouch associate
Francis Lai, successfully underpins the on-screen
happenings. From the appropriately pomp baroque
of Beethoven’s Fifth to the homespun charm of the
original compositions, Lai, an Academy Award
winner for his score to Love Story, gives us just

enoujgh.

And so does all of Another Man, Another
Chance. Lelouch has been careful not to overrun his
intentions. Once the union between David and
Jeanne is established, Lelouch brings this tasteful,
engaging love story to a timely conclusion,

Fact

Finals week: study
now and sleep later
If you want to do well on your
finals, study before you steep, not
after. Research shows that you
will recall more if you study
before you sleep rather than
waking up and cramming before
your exam, or pulling an
all-nighter.

Researchers are finding that
hormones produced during sleep
may have an effect on memory.
Within thirty minutes after falling
asleep, the hormone somatrophin
is released and stays at a high level
for the first half of the night. It
decreases afterwards. Those who
are- awakened early in their sleep
will most likely have poorer recall
because of the high hormone level
in their system. These levels
return to normal after waking.

The next two games were hard fought as Foreskin narrowing
defeated Basement Bertha 42-39 and the So-Whats (beat the tough team
of Fargo Sterling Expression with a shot at the bugzcr by the score of
37-35.
Later on in the evening, Fire Plug rumbled past Seatra in 44-39. In
another exciting contest, AWB (Average White Ballplayers) beat Muff

Undefeated Pigs-on-the-Wing skinned the Young Roustabouts team
with an offense that devasted the Roustabouts’ defense and scoring at

In the most exciting game of the night, Lenny Rollins’ New York
was leading Social Forces by 10 points when Ron Allen of Social
Forces fouled out. With only four men and 10 minutes left, things
looked grim for the Forces. But led by their shooting ace Jay Rosen,
the Social Forces came back and outscored New York 12-2 in the last
five minutes to tie the score at 54. New York, in an attempt to slow
down the pace of the game, held the ball but still lost 58-54 in a real

“Death Row has been revived,”
wrestling co-captain
Kirk Anderson, after Buffalo’s
heavyweights (Death Row) had
dominated the action, helping
Buffalo squeak past Edinboro
25-21 in their season’s opener
Wednesday night at Clark Hall.
When Bulls’ heavyweight Paul
Curka pinned Gil Hense just one
minute and thirty-two seconds
into the match, it sent the
partisan crowd into a frenzy and
capped a rally in Buffalo which
saw them come back from a 19-4
deficit.
Buffalo still trailed 21-19 when
the 270 pound Curka stepped
onto the mat for the final match
of the evening. Curka, a two time
third-place winner in the National
Junior Collegiate Championships,
was making his debut in a Buffalo
uniform, and it took little time
for him to take his opponent
down. In complete control all the
way, Curka had little trouble
registering the pin. “I knew I
could win it,” Curka said.
Prior to Death Row, Buffalo’s
lightweights floundered, as only
junior Ed Tyrrell could manage a

win.
Jacoutot, Dave Tundo and Pat
Riley, all newcomers to the Bulls,
each lost their match. Anderson,
leading off Death Row, was
coming off a fine winning
performance at the Colgate Open,
and left no doubt that Buffalo
was on its way back.
Buffalo’s 158 pounder never

chance. Anderson registered a

bottom position in the second
period, it took Anderson only
eight seconds to escape, and about
a half-minute more to pin Schloss.
Bruce Hadsell returned to
Death Row after a year’s layoff.
Hadsell went to the NCAA
National Championships two
years ago, but looked a little slow
in the first period, as neither he
nor Edinboro’s Tim Giger could
score. Hadsell, however, warmed
up in the final two periods and
registered a superior decision,
making the score 19-14.
Buffalo’s 177 pounder, Dave
Mitchell, looked like he would
continue the Bulls’ onslaught, as
he fought to a 6-2 lead, but then
tired. Edinboro’s Ray Yeager
picked up several points when
Mitchell was cited for stalling, and
Yeager picked up a final point
because of his riding time
advantage, tying the match at 6-6.
Buffalo’s next wrestler, Jeff
Wheeler, hung on bravely at the
end to move the Bulls even closer.
Wheeler was in what looked like

Curka’s dramatic win.
Buffalo coach Ed Michael was
pleased with the win. He felt that
Wheeler’s win was the turning

&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;

by Jay Rosen
Managing Editor

The Student Misdirectory is out.
For the second consecutive frustrating year, a substantial
proportion of the telephone listings in the University’s student
directory are incorrect. The 200 page book, which appeared on campus
Wednesday, six weeks lata, carried telephone numbers for dorm
students which were 80 percent in error, according to a survey taken
by The Spectrum, and confirmed by Mark Teitlebaum, the publisher.

The dormitory addresses of
nearly all students were accurate,
a significant improvement over
last year, when most on-campus
addresses and phone numbers
were hopelessly jumbled.

Surprise!

Common as Edsels
In its characteristically belated style, Congress has begun the
laborious process of braking this speeding corporate train. Congressman
Mo Udall of Arizona is attempting to raise support for a three year
study of the effects of chain ownership. Representative John LaFalcc
from Tonawanda has expressed similar concern. Three years, though,
might be too late for the local newspaper owner.
The Goliath Gannet chain, for example, owns 73.pcpers, many of
them local monopolies. Competing dailies are about as common today
as Edsels. Fewer than 3 percent of American communities benefit from
their newspapers locking horns each deadline. The newspaper man who
happens to run a business has been largely replaced by the businessman
who happens to publish newspapers.
Today’s chains generally institute “local editorial autonomy” in
place of corporate headquarter dictums, basically because they could
never get away with William Randolph Hearst’s front page delusions of
grandeur so prevalent fourty years ago. Since many of the editors are
not “local” they are often not so “autonomous” either. The fear is that
the editorial page and the balance sheet, in the ideal proudly
independent, will become business partners.

Studies have shown chain papers to run fewer editorials on
controversial local topics. While power and influence were once the
motivating forces for most publishers, profits and expansion appear to
have taken over.
The rap against chain papers is that they have become predictable
and homogenized. Readers, and just as importantly, advertisers, are
often left without alternative choices other than television, which for
all its glory, simply does not provide a comparable forum for either
group. Local ownership is certainly no guarantee to a vibrant and
autonomous newspaper. Yet there is sufficient empirical evidence and
moral appeal to the argument that an independently published paper
with deep local roots is best for the community. Newspapers, though
never mistaken for the local bloodmobile, have always been, in some
sense public servants. Gannet’s difficulties in serving 73 different
publics are understandable, yet worry some nonetheless.
Bankrolls
The local vs. absentee ownership issue is now being spotlighted in
Buffalo through the Courier-Express' current battle with the Buffalo
Evening News. The Courier, owned for generations by Buffalo’s
Conners family is struggling for survival as Omaha millionaire Warren
Buffet bankrolls the News towards what he hopes will be national
'prominence and local monopoly.
Ironically, the liberal Buffet left his hands out of the News’
political endorsements this fall, allowing the traditionally Republican
leadership at the paper considerable “local editorial autonomy.” The
Courier, though, has always been the gutsier editorial voice and quicker
to blow the whistle on perceived wrongdoing.
If the big fish swallows the little, and another competitive market
swirls down the drain, Buffalo may find itself, well, up a creek
flowing one, and only one, direction. Concern over the growing chain
of media command deserves a carefully tuned public ear.

Future of the Buffalonian
uncertain due to problems
by Elena Cacavas
Spectrum Staff Writer

The editorial board of this University’s
yearbook. The Buffalonian currently faces problems
which could halt any ongoing work; who will
publish the book and who will fund its publication.
Buffalonian editor, Libby Post, seeks to curtail the
established contract with University Press and to
make a new arrangement with Taylor Publishing
Company while the Student Association (SA) prefers
to retain University Press and Savage Litho.
In a meeting held on December 30 at which
officials of SA, Sub-Board, and the board of the
Buffalonian were present, bids were presented by the
two competing publishers.
District Manager for Taylor, Jeff Parker, and
local representative, Steve Connor, presented their
company’s package deal which included 16 color
pages and a color cover at an estimated price of

estimate for essentially the same work was $20,000.
income off-set expected
The difference in the bids was related to the fact
that Taylor, being the largest yearbook publisher in

the world (working exclusively in yearbooks),
already has the elaborate equipment needed for
extra effects such as color, whereas University Press
and Savage would have to set up special processes
and add extra labor.
Some compromised agreement between SA and
the Buffalonian Board must be reached soon because
the yearbook currently has no money on which to
operate. Post claims that there was no budget
allotment made by SA last spring because they
didn’t know that a yearbook would be published this
year. When it was established that a 197-8
Buffalonian would exist, it was expected that the
book would be income off set which Post agreed
better. At this time ads have reached S2000.
Sub-Board Publications Division Director Bill
Finkelstein told The Spectrum that SA, which will
have to partially fund the Buffalonian, advocates
using University Press to keep the operation within
the realm of student monies. It was also pointed out
that University Press’ location in Squire Hall was
convenient, whereas Taylor’s (based in Texas with a
division in Pennsylvania) involved shipping and
didn’t allow the staff to “check” the production.

trying to find a correct number in this phone book. It was
discovered, through one of those famous random surveys,
that after calling 50 on-campus numbers, only six worked.
Some were disconnected, some were department numbers,
some were who knows what. Six out of 50. Fortunately, the

those famous random surveys has not yet been done, has
proved to be better although quite far from perfect.

Teitelbaum.
Teitelbaum was in The Spectrum office yesterday
afternoon, claiming that he, while acknowledging and
apologizing for the gross errors, has no legal responsibility
and that the fault lies with Admissions and Records and Sub
Board. Any good publisher knows that he must have people

make sure that no mistakes are being made. Teitelbaum did
not do this because he reasoned that since the computer
foul-up that caused last year's misdirectory had been
corrected, nothing else could go wrong. Stumble, stumble,
how much trouble he has caused by getting advertisers to
pay for a directory, albeit one that Is distributed free of
charge, that doesn't work.

The only section of this year's Student Directory that
could be construed as useful is the five lined pages in the
back entitled “Numbers Frequently Called."
And Teitelbaum should certainly not be given the
contract for next year's Directory.

Czarnecki expressed exceedingly critical views of the

current operations of Sub Board and of myself. I am
quite willing to respond to the specific questions he
raises concerning Sub Board’s recent and past
actions, or any other questions anyone may have. 1
will not respond to all of Jon’s in this letter, as such
a reply would be lengthy and I am most concerned
at this time with making the following points.
Jon’s principle contention is that Sub Board, its
leadership particularly, has constructed a wasteful
bureaucracy and has then proceeded to be deaf to all
pleas for reform.
The most personally galling aspect of this charge
is that | had to learn of it for the first time in print.
Although, as Jon mentions, 1 am a fellow graduate

student and a Graduate Student Senator who has
worked numerous times with him in the past, he has
never approached me concerning the problems he
finds in Sub Board.
There is the further innuendo that 1 have

removed myself from all student input and act to
shroud Sub Board’s operations in deceit. This could
not be farther from the truth. I believe that anyone
else who has dealt with one would agree that I have
always attempted to approach Sub Board with an
open mind. I have consistently solicited opinions as
to how Sub Board could be bettered, and I have
always tried to act upon creditable suggestions.
During my interview last spring for reappointment as
a GSA representative to Sub Board, I directly told
Jon and the entire GSA Executive Committee that
they should come to me with any questions
concerning Sub Board. None of them have.
1 do not believe Sub Board is a perfect
organization; nor do I believe that I have all the
answers as to how to make it one. However, as long
as I am chairman of Sub Board, it will always
welcome the participation of any student in helping
to achieve that perfection. I urge the dissatisfied to
take advantage of this and not to spend their energy
on venom drenched correspondence.

Sub Board reasonable
To the Editor.

In response to Mr. Czamecki’s chilling letter to
the editor in The Spectrum's issue of November 30,
1977, I feel a response is necessary. Aside from the
fact that Mr. Czarnecki demonstrates alarming
ignorance of the amount of work that goes into the
day-to-day operations of a million dollar corporation
with all of its complexities and, yes, bureaucratic
brick walls, it is surprising to note that Mr.
Czarnecki, as a former member of the Graduate
Student Association Senate, is part of the
bureaucracy which he so harshly criticizes. The GSA
has quite a bureaucracy of its own with an overall
annual budget of $103,000, the administrative
portion of which amounts to a staggering $28,000,
more than a quarter of their total budget. It must
also be pointed out that the bureaucracy inherent in
the corporate underpinnings of Sub Board 1 is not
entirely self-imposed, but stems in large part from
the Guidelines published by the SUNY Board of
Trustees, a fascinating document which establishes
strict rules for the disbursement of and accounting
for student fees. Of course, Sub Board I is bound as
well by state and federal laws governing the
operations of not-for-profit corporations.
I would be interested to know how a
corporation of such size and complexity could be

operated entirely by students who lack both the
experience and the time it takes to devote one’s
energies to such an undertaking. As it stands now,
Sub Board I employes hundreds of students every

implementation of activities, health-related services,

why a “skeleton crew” of ten full-time employees
(some of whom are indeed students) is needed for
purposes of long-range continuity, and the day-in
and day-out devotion which is needed to keep Sub

Board I on its feet. Take note; hundreds of students
and only ten full-time employees. It sounds
reasonable to me.
It must also be noted that the Graduate Student
Association, of which Mr. Czarnecki is a
card-carrying member, employs two full-time people
of its own, all on a budget of $103,000. By
extension, Sub Board I, with its annual budget of
$1,200,000 should be employing 23 full-time people
just to keep up with GSA. Somehow, Sub Board 1
manages to get by with just ten. And Mr. Czarnecki
has the audacity to question effectiveness and
efficiency? I suggest he look in his own back yard
before he jumps on his horse to fight the crusades.

Misconception Sub Board
To the Editor.

Jon Czarnecki’s letter (Monday, November 30,
1977) criticizing the decision by Sub-Board I, Inc. to
not publish certain salary lines indicates his
misconception of the issue and a lack of sensitivity.
In all fairness, though, I feel that this is in part due
to inaccurate coverage of the decision and easily
misinterpreted statements made by some members

of the Board of Directors.
First, I’d like to clearly define the reasons for
not publishing the salaries. It was done not to keep
die information away from fee-paying students but
in consideration of the ten full-time office staff
whose salaries were to be published. I feel that it is
important to recognize that these figures are only a
part of the total budget; approximately two-hundred
paid positions will be publicized.
Two letters to the Board written by the ten
concerned employees indicated their strong disfavor
to have their salaries subject to misinterpretation and
ridicule. One need only refer to Mr. Czarnecki’s
letter to realize their concern. His garrishness is only
too evident. (Pease note that Executive Director
Tom Van Nortwick expressed clearly at Sub-Board’s
last meeting that he did not object to his salary being
published but that he was concerned about, his
fellow workers. By the way, Mr. Czamecki, your
“ballpark figure” of $20,000 is way out of field if
m’Miiffirr-callVan Nortwick to find
out the real salary.)

Mr. Czarnecki, no one is trying to hide anything
from anyone. The resolution explicitly states that
the budget information is available to anyone on
request. In our decision to not publish the ten salary
lines in question, we wished only to respect the
office workers’ request for their due privacy. If
anyone wants the information, go down to the
Sub-Board office, 110 Talbert, 636-2954.
Unfortunately, a statement made by one of the
Board members may have erroneously implied that
students couldn’t understand the figures. It’s simply
a matter of a poor choice of words rather than an
indication of our reasons. Certainly students can
understand salary lines but without job descriptions
affixed to the job titles or observation of the work
done by Sub-Board full-time personnel, simple
numbers mean little. To publish a detailed budget
would be voluminous and far too excessive for space
in The Spectrum, the original intent.
It is understandable that we students should
want to know how our sixty-seven dollars is spent.
But, there is a wrong way and a right way to do it.
Publishing the information in a manner that would
lower the morale of the workers concerned has
questionable value.
Once again, the information is available by
simple request, and, I repeat, no one is trying to hide
anything from anyone.

�Ketter and Goodyear alarms
To the Editor:

3. President Ketier's party on November II.
We wish to charge President Ketter and his guests
with ignoring the fire alarm, which was set off by his
party. Not only didn't he himself leave nor request
his party to evacuate the building, in defiance of
safety regulations, but in fact, as students were
leaving the building, Ketter’s guests were being taken
up to the I Oth floor party via the off-limits elevator.
We, as students of the University and residents
of Goodyear Hall, demand that action be taken to
refnedy this situation. In particular: 1) the problems
inherent in the new fire system should be
immediately tended to, and in the meantime, if
possible, the new system disconnected with fire
boxes being used instead of detectors; 2) proper
action should be taken against all persons, not just
students, who do not evacuate during a fire alarm;
and 3) President Ketter should be dealt with in an
appropriate manner due his position for his
irresponsibility and selfishness in disregarding one of
the primary rules of the dormitories.

We, the undersigned residents of Goodyear Hall,
wish to Iddge a complaint regarding the situation of
the recently installed fire alarm system. We are
particularly addressing three (3) specific points with
this petition, as follows;
1. The frequency of the fire alarms. The
constant setting off of the new detectors without
reasonable cause shows an inadequacy of the system.
If the heat of a broiler oven, or a student knocking
against detector is enough to set the entire system
off, then this type of system does not belong in the
dormitories.
2. Arising danger to the students. Due to the
frequency of false alarms, amny students are no
longer leaving the building. In the event of a real fire,
this could prove dangerous for the students as well as
the school. For those leaving the building on these
numerous occasions, unnecessary danger to their
health' exists in exposure to winter cold and ice on
walkways, as can be evidenced by the condition at
the south rear exit during the alarm on November

FEEDBACK
First aid help
To the Editor.

I am writing this letter in regard to your article
entitled “Medical services faulty in a pinch,” written
by Richard Delaney and printed on Wednesday,
11/23/77. That article had little resemblance to the
interview which was given to Mr. Delaney. First, the
article was envisioned to introduce the first aid team
to the University community while at the same time
requesting qualified first aid personnel from Ellicott
and Governors to get involved with us. Please keep
this in mind as you read this.
The picture at the top of the article was of two
La Salle Ambulance Service ambulances. They serve
the Main St. Campus and are not involved in
emergency care at Amherst.
In the interview with Mr. Delaney, I stated a
number of reasons why the Amherst Health Service
staff might be delayed in responding to a call for
assistance. Among these reasons were another
patient(s) being cared for, Police may be out on
another call (they transport the nurse), or the nurse
might be eating (out to lunch). In most cases the
resulting delay is not of critical importance, but it is,
in the very least, uncomfortable for the injured
person.

The program we are developing is going to use
First Aid Technicians whom will be either
Emergency Medical Technicians or American Red
Cross Advanced First Aid and Emergency Care card
holders. Our technicians will also be certified in
Basic Life Support.
These First Aid Technicians, who will be located
in Governors and Eliicott, will carry papers and be
dispatched by Security. This First Response Team
will be functioning as an adjunctive service. In so
doing we will decrease the response time and reduce
Security and Health Service response to false calls
thereby allowing more effective use of available

peoplepower.

The First Response Program is currently in the
later parts of the planning stage. We need people
both with and without first aid skills to make it a
reality. Wayne Mitu, also of College H, is looking for
funding from in and outside the University. College
H is helping with organizational work.. They are not

and myself have not been trying to organize this

Fair approach to med school
To the Editor

1 would like to comment on the senes of letters
which appeared in this spage regarding women and
affirmative action Many of the letter writers seemed
to assume that women in medical schools are

underqualified in comparison
to
their male
colleagues. This is not true. According to data
published in the Journal of Medical Hducation
(1976) for the classes which entered in the fall of
1974 (the latest year for which 1 could find data),
women actually had slightly higher grade point
averages than men. The mean science GPA for all
accepted women medical students was 3.46, while
for men it was 3.44. The mean GPA for non-science
courses for women was 3.52, while for men, it was
3.45. I could not find data on the MCAT scores of
accepted students broken down by sex. However, for
all those who took the MCAT, whether accepted or
not, women did somewhat better than men on the
verbal ability and general information parts of the
test, while men did somewhat better than women on
the science and quantative ability parts. It is
apparently true that a greater percentage of women
applicants are accepted. However, a study of
successful and
non-successful applicants to a

First A id Program Coordinator
Canadian medical school found that its female
applicants were more highly qualified on the average,
implying a process of self-selection on the part of
women.

One of my physician-teachers (a white male)
asked me what I thought of the Bakke case and
“referse discrimination.” After I told him some of
the above, he stated that he felt male medical
students ought to be bringing lawsuits over the
admission of women and not blacks, because it is
women who have had the greatest numerical effect
on the chances of white men for admission to
medical school. 1 think his comment reflects a
tendency for white men to view any change in their

opportunities

as “reverse discrimination.” I’m not

saying that reverse discrimination does not exist, nor
that it is a simple issue with easy solutions. However,
the statistics
1 have seen show no reverse
discrimination in favor of women being admitted to
medical school. I think they show instead a very fair
approach. I hope that white men will be able to
transcend the narrow view that anything which
changes their past opportunities (however unfair
those opportunities were) is discrimination against
them.

VA employees not ticketed

What pisses me off is that he wouldn’t have to

towed away in the beginning of the year. They had
to pay for the towing which was about twenty-five

Jackass Barry Lillis
To the Editor

I am writing you concerning what I consider a
pitiful situation in Buffalo. As i sit here watching the
local news in New York City, it reminds me that yes,
people can be informed.
Before local Buffalonians get on my case about
knocking them, I would like to say this is not
intended to be soi However, I must say that after
spending all of last year and part of this year in
Buffalo, it is obvious that the, people of this area
can’t be as well informed as to what is going on
around them if they depend on the Fvening News as
their major source of information. Is this the
people’s fault? 1 doubt it; I would rather place the
blame on the people responsible for the local news
telecasts. I also realize that this area does not have
the size or magnitude of activity of the New York
Metropolitan area. However the fact still remains
that local news programs fail greatly in the area of
being informative (e g., special reports in areas of
crime, science and technology, etc.). At times they
can be outright unprofessional and insulting. The
most obvious case being that jackass named Barry
Lillis. This is where, if any place, I can place blame
on the people of Buffalo. How can people allow that
man to insult their intelligence daily at 6 and 1 1
o clock. Perhaps if you and I object to such nonsense
and try to get more professional people (such as a
Dr Frank Field who also does other duties including
weather reports but much differently than Mr. Lillis)
on the air, Buffalo would get much of the respect it
needs. How can you blame out-of-towners for
treating Buffalo as a joke if the people allow local
TV stations to make a joke out of Buffalo. UB, the
major

of
education and
information, could well serve the community if it
were to stand up and take affirmative action
and
positions to improve the local broadcasts and

�An animated critique: Hobbitually unsatisfying
by Michael F. Hopkins
Spectrum Music Staff

When in the course of auspicious events, it becomes
not only to expect, but to help arouse the
moment. And when that moment falls below the great
expectations of passers-by, there comes a time not to
merely criticize, but to analyze.
As J.R.R. Tolkien often mused (in, of course, a Valar
melody), allegory is too often used as a tool by frustrated
demagogues to strangle the essence of ideas. The reasons
for the shortcomings of the recent Rankin-Bass animated
Hobbit lie deep in faults that a self-defacing medium has
yet to see.
necessary

The animation. Now, I speak of conceptuai flow of
plot as well as visual graphics. Films such as 2001, for
example, are classics because the graphics bespeak of a
Grand Master Plan, a vivid story for sure. A lone orator,
poet,

or

expert otherwise, can unveil with mastery of

subject and delivery a wealth of graphic splendor to bring
spirits dancing in the air of collective imagination (literally,
the opening Music of the Silmarillion ). With animation,
however, there is a combined potential of plot and imagery
that, after decades, has barely been realized.

Even Disney's Fantasia, a ne plus d'exce/lence of the
film world, is but a hint of what can be done with long
scenarios such as Milton's Paradise Lost (even segments),
or a Langston Hughes Simple story, or supreme science
fiction or, of course, Tolkien. Ironically, Disney's
narrow-mindedness of what 'family plots' should be about
hopelessly eliminated healthy competition such as the
Fleischers, who made the original Popeye, the 40's
Superman, Gulliver's Travels, etc.) and crippled the
once-creative quality of his own studios, whose cartoons
and films endlessly repeat formulas such as the
"bobby-socked kid" or "boy genius" or the boy crashes

girl (or money) Love Bug.

Because of these types of attitudes, Saturday morning
and weeknight cartoons lost the seriousness and satire of
the superhero and the old Flintstones to nonsense like the
Adam West Batman and Superfriends, and Marvel comic
books became sterile rhetoric (that people could "relate"
to?) to kill a meditative panther's rage. Efforts like
Bakshi's animated fantasy Wizards go virtually ignored,
and even Star Trek and Star Wars seem to be playing
second fiddle to the overflow of ripoffs which their
creditors seem unable to deny.
Someone some parents, some "critics", some of us
saw fit to dislike the "violence" in good-evil conflicts of
the superhero cartoons of the 60's. Rather than worry
about the bloodlust in this society that these cartoons
were, in some way, trying to illustrate they removed the
blood from the media completely, leaving us with dry,
educationally 'fun' subjects
like Scooby Doo,
Jabberjaw,
and
the
Bionic Brady Kids.
The
"non-controversial, non-violent syndrome killed Morrie
Turner's multi-cultural satire Wee Pals, transforming it into
the "safe" Kid Power, and Wait'Til Your Father Gets
Home (about an essentially good middle class white family
at the confused crossroads of the 60's-70's) came and went
scorned or unnoticed by the same group who wanted
social change, voted Nixon, then cried 'foul'at Watergate.
Strange how this same constituency always cancels efforts
such as Richard Pryor while leaving Soap and perennial ivy
patches like Fernwood forever alone.

continuous quest for enlightenment and glory. Too often
do we discover that the greatest enlightenment comes not
always in cadenzas, but in quiet realization. Journey and
Love was the gift J.R.R. Tolkien gave the world in The
Hobbit and The Lord Of The Rings (among many things),
and he made us proud to-be, each, a small segment of a
blossoming world tapestry, together.

The main fault of the animated feature rendition of
The Hobbit was that it was fragmented. If one is going to
tackle as extensive an epic as this for a mere 90 minutes, at
least have someone writing
the script who knows and can preserve/expand the flow of
the work in so relatively short a time. This was not done
here. Points where Tolkien's original lines collided with
huge gaps caused by the screenplay could easily be seen.
These gaps were often bridged together by choppy lines
and weak rearrangements of the story. An example of this
is the deletion of (among other things) Bilbo Baggios' theft
of the ancestral dwarfjewel Arkenstone. The hobbit gave
this jewel to the armies of Elves and Men to hold as
ransom against the greedy dwarfking Thorin, so that
negotiations of peace rather than needless war could
prevail. The screenplay substitutes for this a scene in which
Bilbo wisely refuses to participate in a wasteful display of
power, one which would have been all the more foolish
because his forces were outnumbered. A wise hobbit to
form, indeed, but in the method the scene is executed
(depicted), we lose the literal dash of Tolkein's
multifaceted imagery . , . the color and the simple truth. It
was this combination that was missing throughout the
presentation.

We then come to the Shire and the rolling fields of
adventure, dinner, folly, wisdom, poetry and pedantic

The animation was poor, period. (The finest animators
around, at this time, are doing blue jean ads!) The use of
cutsey spinning effects at points of bloodletting was unreal
and most stupid, something I mentioned earlier. I shall
explain.

should it be underplayed. If someone doesn't finally

of its own), dwelling morbidly out of context on it, or
ignoring it. we're going to continue witnessing the foolish
game of critic and cynic tying us in maypole ribbons
labeled 'Too Much Violence".
The problem it. really, we have so little an idea of
what violence really is... but we bear a load of grotesque,
romanticized idealizations we seem to be all too good at
that. As Bilbo or Frodo or Gandalf or Galadriel can tell
you. death it nothing to sing to, and poems of boldness
represent more than visions of bloodshed to trounce your

There were many other discrepancies as well in the

the inability of the animators to keep the Ring in one

respects) except little of cartoon and TV. However, having
at times seen revealed the high potential of the two media

than read this piece and reply angrily or with boredom.
Something more than reaction has been long overdue.

For those who perceived the long effort that the

graphics staff put into the animated Hobbit the real reward
is a handsome illustrated edition of the complete Hobbit
(pub. Harry N. Abrams, Inc., $29.95, 220 ppg.) filled with
art from the T.V. feature. Though some faults remain, the
illustrations pace the narrative extremely well, and in
many cases you will encounter scenes drawn for the book
that were sorely missing from the TV version (The
elemental meeting with the giant Beorn, for one). The
colors are much more vivid in the text picturization
incidentally, the first full picturization of any Tolkien
work). It is as if the tomes, like the tome, had grown fuller
with development and Time's ripening. A lesson for us to
promptly learn, for the Time has long been ripe and the
songs of Sea yet beckon for vision.

Retired bard ponders life
How does an artist evaluate

How does that same artist face death? These are the
questions asked by playwright Edward Bond in his
drama Bingo or Scenes of Money and Death This
play is the latest production offered by The Center
for Theatre Research at their Pfeifdr Theatre stage,
305 Lafayette Street.
William Shakespeare returns to his Stratford
home to retire after a successful career as a
playwright and producer in London. Despondant
and gloomy, alienated from his family, he takes to
sulking in his garden and tries to sum up the meaning
of his life. He quizzes himself, asking over and over
"Was anything done?"

The play stars and is directed by Saul Elkin and
James P. McGuire, the actors who were formerly
teamed in The Center's exciting production of

Hamlet seen in Delaware Park this past summer.
In a preface to the text of the play, Edward
Bond, author of numerous stage and screen dramas,

explains the society in which his character of
Shakespeare lives as "a closed society where you
need money to live. You earn it, borrow it
or steal

it." Bond further states that no money is politically
neutral. If you spend it, it is spent according to your
wishes, if you save money you horde it against
others

�Days of Ancient Egypt
relived in Utopian epic
by Tom Switala
Spectrum Music Staff

Somewhere between the tragically hip
and the heavy metal kids romps Todd
Rundgren. It just depends when you catch
him. At times he's the shaggy-haired
executioner of rock V roll in possession- of
the highest distortion axe ever to behead
an audience. Blink twice and a synthesis, a
rebirth, occurs; Rundgren transforms with
Eastern intrigue, rising like a phoenix from
the ashes of Egyptian myth and mysticism.
Through it all, however, Rundgren reverts
back to basics, never forgetting the
balancing key to rock and roll, the qualities
of love and fun. It is for these reasons that
Rundgren's
audience has grown to
proportions that require the use of
Memorial Auditorium. The evening has
attracted thousands. It's like a city in my

images conflict. The world calls it Utopia.

say it so let's dissolve the labels now; it's
simply rock and roll, in fine form with
invisible tons of energy and those shearing
harmonies that only Todd and Co. could
produce. It's just this whole Jeckyll and
Hyde and Rundgren thing that I was
talking about with Todd telling everybody
that there's no way they're going to get a
fix on him. It's only rock and roll with that
basic Rundgren premise of love and fun
smattered throughout. Much of the new
material (“Trapped," "Love In Action,"
"Back On The Street") are songs as strong
and frenzied as "Black and White" or as
hard-edged as "Heavy Metal Kids" (which
they also performed this evening). Songs
that give the audience one alternative, rock
and roll, which they accept gracefully. It is
a set full of surprises, from the flexible
exchange of lead vocalization between the
members of Utopia to usage of a trumpet,
played by Powell, in fronting a four-man
ensemble of "Abandon City."

Our Weekly Giveaway

Talent was definitely there
by Doug Alpern

You couldn't ask for a batter jazz lineup— Billy
Cobham, Alphonso Johnson, Tom Scott, and Steve
Kahn
each an all-star in his own right. Hence the
band name, the CBS Jazz All-Stars.
The fact that the show was announced only
about ten days before, and the lack of good
publicity almost turned this November 10th show
into a flop. The Century was only one-third full as
the opening act took the stage.
Narada Michael Walden, ex-Mahavishnu and Jeff
Beck percussionist was to be the warm-up band, but
they never did quite warm up.
The thirty minute set consisted of various tunes
from Narada's two solo discs. The seven piece band
cranked out a mish-mosh of "music," but the real
fault was in the sound system. It all sounded echoed
and distorted.
Add to this the problem of under-rehersal that
many new bands have, and it's easy to see why
Narada's music failed. Michael told me backstage
afterwards that this was his first real concert date
with this band.
The lead guitarist, an ex-Automatic Man
member, was out of place, with his raunchy,
note-stretching style. The female sax player (a
Mahavishnu member with Narada) was probably the
best in the bunch. She spewed out some fine funky
on the saxophone, and sang quite powerfully.
Narada seemed to have given up his flashy
drumming techniques (used in Mahavishnu), and
replaced them with standard beat and vocals. Even
his solo wasn't impressive. I asked him afterwards
what happened with Mahavishnu.
"Basically, time moves on. You do your best
it was time for
while you're a part of something
a change."
One reason why the music seemed better on the
albums was because of the band. On record, Narada
used various distinguished artist, such as Carlos
Santana, David Sancious, Jeff Beck, etc., and it
added a more polished sound. I asked him what it
was like, playing with these people.
"Well, I was completely enthused that they
would help me on my project. They're all good
I wrote the composition "First
friends of mine
(Carlos
Santana). He was kind enough
Love" for him
to play it. I was very, very pleased."

Narada's live sound was poor, but a number of
factors, already mentioned, could have been
responsible. Maybe with more practice, a little more
organization, and better sound, the band will be
more successful.

Prodigal Sun

All Star Magic
The CBS All-Star opened with three numbers
from Billy Cobham's newest. Magic. It was evident
from the beginning why Cobham is one of the most
revered percussionists. He can use his drums as an
instrument manipulate them to sound jpst how he
wants.

Tom Scott commanded the next song, one of
his own, "Shadows." His saxophone was superb, and
he (ended his "cool" sound to the band. "Bahama
Mama," an Alphonso Johnson composition,
spotlighted Johnson on bass.
Another song, and then the band left the stage,
with the exception of Cobham. He punched out a
solo that captured the audience. His hands moved
from timbales, to snare, to cymbals, in a flash,
invisible to the naked eye.
The next song, a real funky Steve Kahn piece
entitled "Some Punk Funk," was dedicated to the
new wave music. Kahn plucked out a really tasty
guitar solo, while Johnson kept thundering a steady
bass line.
"Feelings Are the Hardest Words tp Say,"
another Johnson piece (rivaling the longest titled
song) showcased an instrument dubbed the "electric
stick." Looking like a lengthened guitar neck with
no body, Johnson played this piano-sounding
instrument with both hands picking simultaneously.
The show ended with "Spindrift" and "Follow
Your Heart," a duet of Tom Scott compositions,
using the entire band's talents to their fullest. Scott
was most impressive, switching between several
saxophones, and mastering each.
After a roaring standing ovation, the group came
back for one more, a Tom Scott number. Scott used
a wah-wah peddle in conjunction with his sax,
rendering a unique sound to the instrument.
The concert was very poorly planned, but the
talent was definitely there. This was an
extraordinary collaboration, and I'll hope an album
will come from it. Narada Michael Walden was
disappointing, but the CBS Jazz All-Stars lived up to
their name.

The crowd is near breathlessness, but
are able to commend three encores from
Utopia. A cop, proceeding to bust a fan in
his seat, is affectionately called an
"asshole" by Todd. Shortly afterwards he
reminds some prepared plainclothed
policemen that there will be no "power
trips" as the fans approach the stage. And
then Todd closes with his final plea,
offering a last reminder, "Love Is The
Answer,"
and culminates his
two-and-one-half-hour stage presence.
Amen to the Runt.

himself chose the tracks, especially since he had the
one of the most successful strings of consistent recording
copyright, and is presently recording as a solo act for
ingenuity. In the beginning however, Roxy and its pathos
were met with much discrepancy. Acceptance of the music
was modified despite the staggering compositions which
flowed from the pen of founder Bryan Ferry (himself a
self-taught pianist). It took a lot of sweat to elevate the
band to a greater scope of audience which in the end went
down the tubes. Wasted work? Possibly, although the
members now carry on solo ventures.
As for the demise of the group, all coordinates point
to Bryan as being the prime element which sparked
friction amongst the members, mainly due to his
dominance in the studio by primarily recording his
material. Bryan was the first to record a solo elpee entitled
These Foolish Things, which sort of hinted at his prime
being himself. Outlets opened and Andy McCay

also took the solo step, recording In Search of Eddie Riff.
This was proof-positive of Andy's extremely innovative
talents and dexterity, arranging and playing different
facets of music ranging from Wagner's "Ride of The
Valkyries" to Schubert's "An Die Musik" to Skeeter Davis'
sixties hit "End of the World." Quite an array of musics
done with alto and tenor saxes.
But the first of the original members to vacate his
place in the group was Brian Eno. Eno modified tapes,
played the synthesizer, and toyed with the Roxy
production. He gave the music his touch of character
enveloped in electronic wizardry. By the time the group
had its third album in the can, Eno's first release entered
the market. Here Come The Warm Jets. This eventually
projected his momentum into other offerings such as
playing with the-reknown King Crimson guitarist Robert
Fripp, and releasing an additional three albums of his own

cooking out in graceful Roxy style.
Side Two opens with a single released in the States
which garnered a bit of air play, "Love Is The Drug"
opening in funky-carribean time. Probably two of the
more attractive and powerful pieces on this album are
borrowed from the third elpee Stranded. This album first
indoctrinated me into the world of Roxy Music, and
"Mother Of Pearl" with "Street Life" (which rightfully
closes out the album) prove to be the best servings within
this package. In "Street Life" Bryan exposes a surprising
and knowledgeable bit of poetry exploring the city streets
of the States that speak like the experienced eyas of some
night mongrel looking for his daily bolt of action.
The only track that I met with some indifference was
"Song For Europe," a bit of orchestrated romenticism
("Here as I sit in this empty cafe thinking of you. I'll
remember all these moments..."). Bryan sounds a bit like
an unrequited Maurice Chevalier but McCay's sax blowing
is tremendous. One number that I feel Bryan definitely
overlooked is "Prarie Rose," perhaps one of the most
powerful and overlooked Roxy numbers.
Even If you've never heard of Roxy Music (I'd find
that hard to believe), from one listening this collection
would probably stir some sort of interest among you
listeners to obtain some of the other music that holds just
as much dynamicUm. Roxy Music may be over and done
with, but this album is without a doubt a trOe inspirational
piece of recognition to the band which instilled the term

Johnny Rotten doesn't brush his teeth. He doesn't enjoy' ttys

The fascination I hold for the Sex Pistols is unlike any other I've
found since discovering the devil in the New York Dolls and other
wayward pastures, tripping to the original Thirteen Elevators. This is
not to find comparisons between The Sex Pistols and these other
mentioned groups, but only to say that all of these groups hypnotized
their particular audiences with similar presentations. It revolves around
the sort of devastation which leads to

First Love, is an unusual kind
of love story. It is. a bittersweet
movie which involves an idealistic
athlete/scholar and a sophisticated
young woman. The setting is a
small college where sex is casual
and love is hard to find.
WiHiam Katt, as Elgin, portrays
a sensitive young man in search of
a meaningful relationship. It is
love at first sight when the
Caroline,
angelic-looking
portrayed by Susan Dey, sets eyes
on him. Elgin, in turn falls
hopelessly in love with her
without knowing a thing about
her, except that she is beautiful.
As the film progresses, his dreams
of ideal love are shattered,
something he can not seem to
come to grips with.
Throughout the film, their love
is
generated with emotional
intensity. This is especially true of
the scene in which they first make
love. It is filled with tenderness,
sensitivity and eroticism. The
beauty of it is that this is achieved
without being overly explicit. Yet

Who truly are the Heroes in this film? They are a group of veterans
of the Vietnam War who have rediscovered their roots across the
United States. They all have one common bond: an agreement to
eventually construct a worm farm in Eureka, California. Heroes follows
Henry Winkler's trek from New York to California to gather up his
buddies and build their proposed enterprise.
After a humorous escape from a downtown veterans' hospital in
New York City with monetary investments from his friends in his
ward, Winkler catches a westward bus. He bumps, literally, into Sally
Field, who mentions that she is going to be married in a few days. It's a
gradual process which might be hard to understand, but the two fall in
love on the voyage.

this story Elgin's indeed the more
female role. On the
other hand, the female character
is seen as the heartbreaker.
Caroline seems to be much more
sure of herself in this love affair
than Elgin is.
Generally, there is a distinct
style of sentimentality which
echoes throughout the whole film.

EVENINGS FOR NEW MUSIC

This is probably due to the fact
that it was based on the
story
appropriately-titled
Sentimental Education by Harold
Brodkey. Unfortunately the tone
of the film is monotonous because
it gets more caught up in the
than
the
emotional
rather
substantive elements of the story.
In addition, the characters
themselves are rather bland, and
often come across as being very
shallow. I don't know whether to
blame this on the roles they were
given, on the script, or on the
actors themselves. Nevertheless,
the characters' personalities are
hardly
revealed.
Unable to
understand the characters, the
viewer is therefore unable to get
involved with them. That seems to
defeat the purpose of a true love
story.

There is one performance,
though,
which
is
worth
commending. That is the one of
Beverly D'Angelo, (who plays
Shelly) a girl involved with Elgin's
best friend and roomate, David.
On the whole. First Love is
relaxing and enjoyable, and allows
one to simply sit back and watch.
Assuredly, there is very little to
think about.
At the Holiday and Colvin
Theaters.

Love story tradition
Both Winkler and Field have their stout purposes in mind and by
the film's conclusion, each has arrived at the cold, hard truth of their
dreams. Jack Dunn, Winkler's character, is as unstable as potassium in a
vat of water. Supposedly, his Vietnam duty made him "touched" and
he has been hsopitalized a few times for mental treatment. There are
only a few moments when Winkler is calm and he is usually asleep
during them.
In true love story tradition. Field is at first put off by Winkler's
behavior, but she soon becomes a part of his mad ventures. She
originally takes the bus ride to have some time with herself before she
carries the burden of a marriage. At a depot she is the victim of a
broken vending machine which pours coffee on the floor. The matron
of the place tries to force her to clean it up and Field breaks down,
sobbing: "I can't clean up someone else's messl" She is surely not
ready for matrimony.
The couple makes stops at the homes of Winkler's wartime friends.
One, Harrison Ford, races cars and has virtually forgotten his deal to
begin a brooding rabbit pen. Another friend has run out on his wife
and captures Winkler in disbelief. It is after these two visits that I began
to wonder about the futility of building the worm farm. However,
nothing will drag Winkler down and the couple finally enter Eureka to
meet the last friend who will help open up the farm.
The major focus of Heroes is on the clockwork in Winkler's mind.
It is difficult to call the film a love story but the scars of Vietnam
aren't fully explained either. It is more of a character study than a solid
commentary. Winkler is jp loony, but the cause of his frenzy is
somewhat vague. It might have been the shock of the gruesome battles
or his assimilation into society. The logic isn't quite fully realized.
A shoulder to cry on
Winkler's coping with sex is brought up in a fascinating scene in a
cheap southern motel room and is, perhaps, the strongest scene in the
film. Winkler hesitates to take off his clothes and admits he's nervous
about his lack of contact with women. Field is willing to make love but
he mysteriously goes out for a walk on the verge of seduction. In this
scene, there are hints of psychological impotence and the rapture of
connecting with the past again. Winkler's inability to achieve intimacy
can be traced to wartime male camaraderie and makes a suitable point.
I particularly like the clamping down of the T.V. image of the two
stars. Winkler can rave as much as is required of a deranged veteran and
his charm is slight
to keep in line with the emotional range of the
character he plays. Sally Field, ex-Flying Nun, is not only pretty with a
streak of silliness, she tries her damned best to convince us of the
barely probable situations she gets into. While some women may run
—

scared from a maniac like Winkler, she is in need of someone's shoulder
to cry on and he is the first man available.
If the script by James Cabotaros was written with more substance.
Heroes would have a considerable amount of impact and certainly a
better vehicle for the subject matter. It has the earmarks of a
potentially important film and is worthwhile to observe and discuss
with a degree of intelligence.

This is the second part of the survey of contemporary
Chicago blues artists. It should be mentioned that I have
avoided (with one exception) artists who are available only
on imports or on out-of-print records. Some of these
artists may have albums out in the next year or so you
may want to look out for albums from Magic Slim, Eddie
Clearwater, Lonnie Brooks. Jimmy Johnson and Bobby
King as they have each developed individualistic and
original approaches to the music, as have the artists
surveyed below.

had live the first few times I saw him. Luthur put some of
the most satisfying blues shows I ever saw though the last
few times I taw him he was too psychedelic in his stage
manner and playing.

guitarist Sammy Lawhorn who plays a number of mean,
and concise guitar solos. Mighty Joe Young is also
present with some tasty licks and tenor player Abe Locke
plays rocking saxophone. Koko is in great form, whether
she is boastful on the title track or reflective on Magic
Sam’s “That's Why I'm Crying."

in the Loop (Simmons)
This album is a collection of 45s that Mack Simmins
put out on a variety of labels. This album was put together
by Amy and Jim O'Neal of Living Blues Magazine. (Little)
Mack Simmons plays harp and Lonnie Brooks (who
recorded as Guitar Jr. in the fifties and sixties) are among
the backing musicians. Arlean is a strong singer but there
adebits here. Mack's harp playing isn't very interesting over
the course of an entire album. Also the fact, that he
doesn't play amplified harp on this recording reduces the
bite it might have. There is a sameness in tempos and keys
which is to be expected on a collection of singles. Arlean
really impresses me as a singer and she comes off most
credibly. If you think you want, write Living Blues at
2615 N. Wilton Ave., Chicago, III. 60614 for info on the
record as well as the magazine itself.
Arlean Brown, Sings the Blues

singer and guitarist with a clean fluid guitar technique and
relaxed hi(fi pitched vocals. Very uptown blues with good
handwork and excellent Fenton. The range of material is
good as on a couple of tunes Fenton evokes the spirit of
early Muddy Waters recordings though still playing in a
modern style. A second Alligator album should be coming
out soon and reportedly is even better.

much more down-home in his vocal attack than most of
the others discussed here. On Ray Charles' "I Believe'' he
captures a violent mode, while on "Don't Bother Me" he
projects a defient rebellious mood. Like Albert King, Son
injects so much personality in what he does that any
limitations in his guitar technique or whatever are easily
transcended. This, his second album, also incorporates
funk rhythms in a very successful manner. His first album
is also quite good.

Mighty Jo* Young, Blues With a Touch of Soul (Dalmark)
One of the most respected singers and guitarists in

Chicago, Joe Young is in great demand as a studio
guitarist As a singer and guitarist he shows a number of
influences such as T-Bone Walker. Bobby Bland, B.6. King
and alto Fenton Robinson. A nice ten minute version of
Fenton's "Somebody Loan Me a Dime" is included. Most
tracks here are long and have a jive, jamlike feel. Joe has
other albums and tingles out and you mtyt also want to
check out his album GNP Crescendo.

Luthur Allison, Love Me Mama (Dalmark)

r

This was Luther's first album. Since then Luthur did
some albums for Motown. There it a lot of B.B. King in
Luthur's playing here and his singing recalls Elmore James.
I like this album very much despite the relatively thin
sound. The thin sound is due to Luthur being recorded
with only bast and drums on some cuts. Jimmy Dawkins
and a sax player are added on other sides. Luthur plays

I received this and the Arlean Brown after writing the
first draft of this article. An Incredibly nice anthology
featuring a number of different guitarists and styles.
Mighty Joe Young has two strong tracks including the title
track and among three sides by Fenton Robinson is the
original "Somebody Loan Me a Dime" with some
spectacular guitar. Magic Sam has two nice sides as well as
playing tasty back-up for Homer Walker Jr. including some
great work on the hot "Do Uncle Willie's Dance". Freddy

Most highly recommended and one that can be obtained
from Southern Record Sales, 5001 Reynard, La Crescenta,
Cal. 91214. Since many of the albums I survey are on
small labels that local record stores often have trouble
getting a hold of, you might try Southern as they stock the
largest selection of blues anywhere, with domestic and
imported labels. Many of the small labels can also be
ordered by local stores and you may try them or the folks
that sell records at the UB coffeehouses.

Johnny Guitar Watson, Funk Beyond the
Call of Duty (DJM)
Funk music is really catching on. New
bands are increasing in number, and this
genre of music is expanding to the point
where, many are just carbon copies of
others. Most of the new music has been
done before, and it's now judged by who
plays “it" best. Johnny Guitar Watson, a
relatively new artist on the music scene
(known to most for his- big hit," A Real
Mother For Ya'," off the album of the
same name, is one of the most promising of
this funky lot. His second album, Funk
Beyond the Call of Duty, contains some
real good boogie music.

Watson, a native Buffalonian, plays a
real fine guitar, and can adapt to different
styles. He also plays keyboards, congas,
and supplies the bass with a synthesizer.

White Horse (Capitol)

from the

It has always intrigued me to listen to a
new artist on the forum. By rights, they
tend to do things in unique ways. They are
usually of the non-conformist genre. Bands
such as the Beatles improvised with old

material that they transformed into a
"new" sound. Conversely, bands such as
Boston brought a totally new form of
music to the surface in their first album.
New bands are going to have to be
different to make it. Groups such as the
Backstreet Crawler have evolved into
Crawler. The band (all except for the lead
singer) is the same, yet the music is of a
new style (for them), hence, they are
becoming quite popular.
At one time, it was in fashion to be an
"on-group." Meaning, a group that would
precede the feature band. Many artists
took that route. Musicians can play to a
larger audience if a super-group is to
follow. Some do the unexpected, upstage
the starring performer. Stevie Wonder
always would upstage the featured band, as
did the Climax Blues Band, New Riders,
Network, Firefall and Thin Lizzy. In the
past, Billy Joel was the "on-group" for
Flarry Chapin as well as (believe it or not)
Jefferson Starship. Yet it now appears as
though more good bands are going solo

the
metamorphosis,
back of their latest album, Manorisms.
Ricky Hirsch, the excellent guitarist who
wrote some good music for the group as
well, has been replaced by guitarists Larry
Berwals and Marshall Smith. Lewis Ross on
percussion is succeeded by Theophilus
Lively. John Anthony, who used to play
organ and rhythm guitar for W.W., has also
departed. The Hall brothers. Jack and
Jimmy, and Mike Duke are all that's left of
the pre-1977 band. Aside from the changes
in personnel, the group has also changed
setting. Manorisms was recorded in the
Manor, a rural English studio. Wet Willie
recording in an English manor house is
kinda like Larry Flynt being born again.
They've changed, but not necessarily for
the better.
"Rainman" is an up tempo tune. Lead
vocals are sung by Mike Duke, who also
plays keyboards. His voice isn't bad, but it
lacks the soul and personality of Jimmy
Hall's. There's a good sax solo (Jimmy) but
the song as a whole lacks depth.
Bob Welch, French Kiss (Capitol)
Seems like a dream
I'd be hypnotized too, if I quit a band
that thought I was as good as Peter Green,
a band in which only / could come up with
a hit single, above or underground. I'd be
dazzled by dollars, o boy, when my old
band's records were on the charts for three
hundred weeks straight. So naturally I'd do
what Bob Welch did, call up my old
friends, with whom I never meant to split
anyway, now that I come to think of it,
and get them to pay, I mean play for my
new record too. Wow, what a terrific plan!
But then I'd be copying Bob's idea.

Guitar

The disc does have its flaws. The title
song, "Funk Beyond the Call of Duty,"
contains a good strong beat and fine guitar,
but is ruined by a catastrophic chorus.
"Give Me My Love" is the slowest of
the bunch, and maybe it should have been

left out. Watson has a hard drivin' voice,
just right for today's funk, but it doesn't
adapt quite as well to the softer side. This
cut is salvaged, however, by some real
bluesy guitar licks, courtesy of Mr. Watson.
Some of the tracks begin to sound the
same after awhile, but that's what funk is
about, to a degree. "It's About the Dollar
Bill" is probably the best cut on the
record. It typifies funk at its finest, with
good soulful vocals by Watson. The
obligatory guitar solo is present, and it's a
good one.

start. Foreigner did not have to
back-up many groups before making it big.
The same is true for Bob Seger. Peter
Frampton as a solo artist did not play the
role of "special guest" too often.

One "on-group" that has come into
their own is White Horse. White Horse is a
mellow rock group, of the Seals &amp; Crofts
nature. They are talented and display their

talent on their latest album, entitled White
Horse. This album is excellent. It combines
the efforts of Billy Nichols, the
keyboardist, with Ken Altman on bass, and
Joe Lind on acoustic guitar, Jeff Porcaro
on drums, and Doug Livingston on the

pedal

steel guitar. All these musicians
added their own personal touches to
introduce a new sound that is all their own.
To compare White Horse to another
band is purely nonsensical. They are truly
unique, and all but one cut, "Over And
Done With" clearly shows this. "Over And
Done With" is a pop 40 type track that has
those repeating choruses that artists such as
Leo Sayer made famous. White Horse has
almost an Eagles type style, yet that takes
away from both groups. White Horse has a
sound that is so neat and tight that few
bands in their early stage can compare
all. It's a throwback rocker, complete with
tinkly piano, bouncy beat, and lots of
guitar. Everyone sings except Berwald.
Duke and Jimmy &gt;Hall do the verses
together. The result is a thoroughly
enjoyable tune.

One of the more simple songs on the
album, and also one of the most effective,
is Duke's "Don't Turn Me Away." Hall gets
a chance to show what he can really do on
vocals. It's a pleading love song, and he can
plead with the best of them.
Wet Willie's single cut, "Street Corner

"So Blue" has a nice bass line. That's
Jack Hall's doing. Duke sings again. It's
not, however, the blues at all. There are
now
some excellent background vocals
and then they almost sound like Queen
until you get to the harmonica solo. That's
supposed to unquestionably make it a
blues song, it there was any doubt. It
doesn't work.

Some bands are better off being
"on-groups"
rather
than
featured
performers. Foreigner is a great band, yet
with the number of songs that they do, one
is lucky to see a forty-five minute concert.
A solo group that has a large amount of
music might not want an "on-group." The
Grateful Dead can play two separate three
and one half hour concerts only repeating
four songs (as they did on their last tour).
Not many bands can do that! In fact, most
can't. So "on-bands" help to make the
evening more enjoyable. I would much
rather see an "on-group" with a specific
performer, than just that performer alone.

previous work. The Southern feel is there,
and it's improved upon, with a New
Orleans or South Seas effect on percussion.
They sound like street harmony, instead of
the sophistication of a group such as
Queen. Their great vocal strength is
well-displayed against instrumentation that
is almost purely rhythmic.
"One Track Mine" sounds like "Theme

R2-D2-sounding synthesizer work thrown
in. The song contains some classic lines,

Billy Nicholls writes most of the music
and adds vocals only to his own songs. His
voice is mellow enough to make a flower
wilt, but never gets boring. On the opposite
end is the harsh Ken Altman. His voice can
have one believing that their turntable has
seen better days. But no harm done, his
voice is always fluctuating. One might
think at first that he can't sing, yet after
listening to him many times, it becomes
quite apparent that he can (though
purposely off key). Joe Lind is the one
that gets due credit (or no credit) for
writing "Over And Done With," and
singing the lead for it.
The best tracks are "Doesn't Take
Much," "Can't Stop Loving You (Though I
Try)," and "Everloving Arms." These are
country rock cuts that are so well done
that they must be heard to be believed.
The album is of the progressive type, so
don't expect to hear it on Rock 102, or
Q-FM. One must listen to a progressive
Album Oriented Radio station (AOR),
such as BUF to enjoy the sound of White

David Bowie, Heroes (RCA)
This is as dose to the ground as you can get
before you start licking the dirt off a Nazi soldier's
boots. Heroes is crawling with the guitar and
synthesizer overkill of Robert Fripp and Brian Eno.
ZZZZZZIIIIIP! SKRAWLI That ain't half bad, the
only problem occurs when you wake up and find
that this album is so devoid of David Bowie, you
wouldn't even know it was his album if he didn't
eventually grace us with his eloquent voice. So we
get a whole five minutes worth. And when he does
open his snurdy little cavity, it ain't no treat neither.
You know what a song called "V-2 Schnieder" is?
Cosmic exploitation. Sounds like Iggy Pop drunk on
wine or something and in this case that ain't a
compliment. I'm not even gonna mention David
Bowie as producer and what he did to a talented
artist like Jimmy Osternberg (Iggy). Less violent: if
this is a David Bowie LP, then I'm witnessing Bowie
surrender his pop license to become an astronaut
again; only diffemce is that this time he ain't singing
about it
-D.P.
,

Richie Havens, Mirage (A&amp;M)
Remember Woodstock, where an
intense-looking dude named Richie Havens flailed at
his guitar and wailed soulfully of "Freedom" and
how he was such a "Motherless Child"? That was the
Havens of "69, peaceful summer of love Carrying him
on the crest of its wave. This must have been the
case, for in the years since Havens has done little to
distinguish himself from the host of other soul-funk
singers who shout out "boogie" and "get down" to
well-executed but unintriguing disco chords. Maybe I
ask too much of a musician, that he grow with the
times and create a style of his own rather than adapt
his talents to a genre plagued by the likes of "Dazz"
amd Andrea True (porno star-cum-musical love
object). Havens still has that raspy growl that appeals
to the ass-kickin rowdy in us all, but his creativity
has become stagnant in the slimy pool of
commercialism. There's a decent ballad or two on
here, but if you'd rather not be disillusioned keep
listening to Woodstock if you like Richie Havens.
Those were his prime years, for the 70's surely
aren't.
-D.fi.
America, Live (Warner Brae.)
This summer, Gerry Bedde.y and Dewey
Bunnell, aka America, recorded a live album with
four excellent musicians. The result is a sort of
"greatest hits" package, understandable in a
successful concert (not to mention selling a lot of
records). The songs are cleancut and well done,
about 95% true to the original album versions.
Vocals are quite good very few cracked voices and
missed notes by either Beckley or Bunnell, each of
whom sing lead on about 50% of the songs included
here. Beckley's nasally tone can get to be a bit much
on quiet, vocally oriented tunes like "Daisy Jane",
though- Backround vocals are tasty, and the band as
a whole is very tight musically. It's a good-sounding
album, and youll tike it if you like America.
However, the fact that it is recorded live only makes
it a bit different, neither better nor worse than
anything else they've done.

Bavarian Radio Chorus and Symphony, Coronation
Mass (Angel)
The Coronation Mass in C.K. 317 and the
"Vesperae Solennes de Confessore" in C.K. 339,
were written in 1779/80 during Mozart's stay as
court organist and composer in the cathedral at
the rigid guidelines then
Salzburg. Despite
established tor secular music, Mozart's compositions
exhibit both moody passion and joyous conviction.
The orchestral colours reflect the divine Wonder of
the peasentry rather than the lofty presence of
Mozart's ecclesiastical patrons.
Conductor Eugen Jochum's interpretation is
worthy and pensively conceived. A delicate balance
is established in treatment of the various orchestral
and choral textures. Their interrelation complements
both.
The product is well manufactured. Someone
may make a lot of bread. Then, Joe Farrell, will the
spirit reyeal itself. Hear the Moon, not the Germs.

How can you dislike
music sound unheard
by Barbara Komamky

RECORDS
Chuck Mangione, Feels So Good (Mercury)
This album is at feast professional. Chuck
Mangione knows how to write and arrange music
that will hit the ear as sweet, finished and easily
palatable. The musicians with him on this record are
all good and tight, too. But the music seems
much in the same vein as

saxaphone of Gerry Neiwood). There is an almost

Music-Editor

The time has come for a little, editorializing. I would like to
present you my rationale for doing this job. If you have an open mind,
this will be quite easy for you to digest. If not, I suggest you close your
eyes and bury your head in the sand. And this is the reason.
We, as listeners, are coming precipitously close to giving up our
own rights and depriving dissidents of their right to learn. We are
becoming much too cold to allow the molten emotions generated by
really new music to melt in our veins. And I'm not talking about a new
album by an old band. That is the status quo. Because old bands will
sell new records simply by nature of their past endeavors. Old bands
don't need to make it. The Eagles, the Stones, the Grateful Dead,
Fleetwood Mac
at this time, they really don't require more than
your marginal attention. This is not to say they're good, bad, or
indifferent (although many lethargic giants fall into the last category).
I'm also not preaching abstinence as a preventative for potential
overdose (although if Rumours were heroin, a lot of us would be six
feet under by now). Think about the 60s
if people had never listened
to Elvis, to the Beatles, to Dylan . . .

...

Feels so good when I'm with you
can't believe you love me too
With you it feels like it should feel
Feels so good, let's make a deal
I’ll trade my baseball cards for you
Now / believe that dreams come true
/

are we to believe that it always feels this good? One
dimensional would best describe the music on this
a
record. Though that dimension is well handled
certain ecstacy which Mangione seems to get out of
living and playing music is obvious there is some
raw emotion lacking here. Mangione has fallen back
on overworked themes and played out phrases.
Though some have made it this far with him into
"The Land of Make Believe," for many I think this
will prove to be about as far as they go. Mangione is
an excellent musician who has fallen into a groove,
the security of which is just may be difficult for him
to abandon. If you want some pleasant, pretty, easy
listening with a Spanish flair, this is a good choice.
On the whole though, the album is lacking bottom.
It is as "cute" and unique as Farrah Fawcett Majors,
or C.B. radios. If you dig Chuck, go for his older
stuff, circa his work with Art Blakey and the Jazz
Messengers, back there in the land of reality.

Wretched excess
When the Ramones cost two hundred dollars to book (and please
consider that all three bands at Watkins Glen received in excess of one
hundred thousand dollars apiece ) and a promoter tells me !'d have to
pay him to get them, that sucks. When I tell someone that Terence
Boylan made a great debut record, and he tells me he already likes
Jackson Browne, that sucks. If Toots Hibbert makes a record, but you
won't listen to any reggae except "The Harder They Come," that
sucks, too.
I seem to be going off on a slight tangent. What I really intended
to stress was not the need to’grant audience to Talking Heads. I've
already talked myself colors trying to explain the difference between
Johnny Rotten and David Byrne. Why I really wrote this whole
number was to say this: Do not negate the new music by its
unestablished nature. Rock and roll has always been (with the
exception of some current trends) anti-convention. It should remain so.
Mr. Management in the accounting department at Warner Brothers is
not the one to say what you should like. And neither am I, for that
matter. You are. And conversely, if you try denying me my right to
like the new and eccentric right along with the patnachs, then you're a

narrow asshole.
Critical fans

All this may seem a little hypocritical coming from a "rock
let's understand each other. Talking people out of their
persuasions is far from my intent. And now I’ll tell you something you
may never have considered. All critics are fans. Fanatics would
probably be a better word. If we could all inject vinyl, you could revive
the Penn Central on my tracks alone. Now you say, "Well, if she's such
an addict, we couldn't talk her out of anything anyway." And that's
absolutely right. But any non-authority (if there is such a thing as an

writer.** But

authority to begin with) who, in a simultaneously insinuating and
incriminating voice, says, "How could you like Joe Shmoe and his
Singing Toe?" is guilty of stifling an important blossoming awareness, a
diversified interest. Really, as if liking Joe Shmoe as much as Mick
Jagger were the first deadly sin. Isn't variety supposed to be what
makes the world go 'round? Why would you want to make a
self-defeating statement like the one above?

The Herbie Mann/San Most Quintet, The Man With
The Most (Bethlehem)
Too bad this isn't the "newest" Herbie Mann
album. The Mann With the Most might be Herbie's
latest release, but it was recorded in 1955. After
"Hijack" I lost my respect for the flutist, but if he
ever reproduces any of the '55 material all will be
forgiven.

,11 is not often that one comes across a quintet
such as this. It consists of guitar, bass, drums and
two flutes. Herbie Mann might be the more popular
of the two, but, in musical circles, Sam Most is the
original innovator. It was Most who first established
the flute as a true jazz instrument. Before him some
were used In big bands or special arrangements, but
during the early forties Sam Most entered jazz
chronicles as its first full-fledged flute improviser.
Bud Shank, Frank Wess and Herbie Mann followed.
Today artists such as Jeremy Steig and Hubert Laws
specialize on the flute along with the countless
saxaphonists who grace the instrument.

Assistant Professor of Biology,
Wayne Hadley, has been refused
tenure at this University on the
basis of what he termed “unfair
procedures.”
Hadley alleges “they failed to
meet
a variety of contract
specifications in the reviewing of
tenure.”
The criteria used by this
University for the reviewing of
tenure are evaluations of teaching,
research, administrative duties and
community service. Teaching and

of recommendation, citations, and
speaking engagements, are the
most important of the four.
Hadley claimed that most of
his research was community
, service based and said, “a great
deal of my research hasn’t been
published as of yet.” Hadley
added that most of his research
revolved
around
community
service because he is being paid by
the taxpayers and believes that he
has an obligation to them.
Great loss
Hadley, who received his PhD
from Oklahoma State, is this
University’s only ichthyologist
(fish biologist). A graduate
student advisee under Hadley,
Eleanor George, said, “Dr. Hadley

Tralf appeals to
variety of tastes
In December The Tralfamadore Cafe will present a line up of
internationally celebrated musicians rarely assembled in an intimate
club setting. They offer a variety of styles that should appeal to
almost every musical taste.
December 2, 3, 4 Leroy Jenkins, Muhal Richard Abrams,
Andrew Cyrille Trio. Jenkins on Violin, Abrams on piano, and
Cyrille as a percussionist have all gained fame as soloists and with
the “Revolutionary Ensemble.” They are all regarded as vanguards
of “new music” and should be welcomed by all those who earlier
this year flocked to hear Braxton.
December 13, 24 Muse Allison-Mose, who came from the Delta
Blues tradition, has established himself as a giant among jazz, blues,
and folk lovers as both a unique pianist and vocalist.
December 15, 16, 17 Eddie Henderson, David Liebman, Julian
Priester Septet. Not only has each performed and recorded with
such luminaries as Herbie Hancock, Chick Corea, Jimmey Garrison,
Miles Davis, and Elvin Jones, but each has become known for his
individual style and excellence. They combine forces with four
other greats, among them bassist Mtomb, to present what promises
to be an extraordinary experience.
December 18 Willem Breuker “Killektief” (from Amsterdam,
Holland). Breuker began composing for string quartets at the age of
twelve. Over the past 19 yean he has produced nine albums of
international Acclaim, ranging from 23 piece big bands to

Who else could do him justice?

The one and only Groucho
has brought you 86 years of his
fondest memories—in hundreds
of photos and drawings. In posters and playbills. In his zaniest
writings and routines. And in
hilarious scenes with Chico,
Harpo and Zeppo.
For Groucho, this was a personal collection. For Groucho
lovers, it’s a collector’s item.

The spectacular, incomperable, wonderful Wizard broke through
the top of the charts last week with a truely remarkable 12—2
performance. The banner showing improved the Wizard’s burgeoning
success ratio to 105-49 (.682). So place your bets folks, ’cause the

Wizard, like Warren Beatty, rarely misses.

Chicago 31, Tampa Bay 9. Tampa Bay lights up the scoreboard about
as well as Con-Ed. The Buccaneers get looted.
Cincinnati 23, Kansas City 21. The Chiefs use a tomahawk, chair and
whip but still can’t tame the Bengals. How’s that for journalistic
metaphor.
Cleveland 19, San Diego 13. After scoring 0 big points against L.A. the
Browns feed the Chargers to the elephants at the Zoo while the
caretakers scream.
Denver 24. Houston 16. With three games left to play, the Oilers need a
paltry four wins to do as well as the Broncos.

Very tough schedule
for women hoopsters
Women’s basketball coach Liz
Cousins has a superb collection of
talent to work with this year,
which is fortunate, because she
also has a very difficult schedule
to contend with.
According to Cousins, most of
the members of that team are
skilled enough to be starters and
thus Buffalo’s strong point this
year will be depth. “I expect to
{day everyone,” she said. “And I
expect everyone to contribute.”
The Royales will also be
exceptionally
fast
team and
Cousins intends to take advantage
of that strength. “We are going to
be running the ball on offense and
pressing
defense,”
on
she
explained. And with that kind of
strategy, UB’s depth will really
come in handy. “That kind of
combination lends itself to team
effort,” commented Cousins.
Buffalo is going to need all that
talent, because they have to face
one of the toughest schedules in
their history. “We don’t have one
easy game on our schedule; every
team is a contender for the state
title,” said Cousins.
The coach explained women’s
basketball in Western New York
has never been as outstanding as it
is this year and that die considers
Niagara, Canisius, Buffalo State
and St. John Fisher

all to
on die Buffalo schedule
be powerhouses. “We’re not going
to be able to take it easy for any
game," she stated.

Hills,

Two open spots
So far, Cousins has decided on
three starters, but the other two
positions are still up for grabs.
Senior Regina Frazier and junior
Kris Schum will be handling the
guard posts, while sophomore
Paula Hills will start at forward.
According
Cousins,

Jeanne Brereton, a returnee
from last year’s team, sustained an
iiyury this year which has slowed
her down a little. Another
veteran, junior Marilyn Brown, is
ineligible this semester, but plans
to return to the team in January.
Rounding out the squad are
juniors Melissa Heim, a consistent
shooter and Dottie Holtz, a solid
defensive player.
The Roysdes open their season
tomorrow night against Oswego at

Clark Hall at 6 p.m.

Judo team

Season record even

after Monday victory
The UB Judo team evened up
its season record at 1-1, on
Monday, with a decisive 16*6-3%
victory over Buffalo State. During
die 20 matches, both teams
displayed a lot of beautiful
throws, an unusual occurence in
this era of modem defensive judo.
Three of the seven Buffalo
judoists (Steve Bauer, Alvin Frega
and Linda Greco) won all of their

best throw of the day against Bob
Eisenberger. The throw was a
right sided ippon seoi-nage (one
arm shoulder throw), in which Do
threw his opponent in a high arc,
then followed him direcdy to the
mat for an ippon (a full point),
thus ending the match.

Hills led the team in rebounding
last year and was second to
Frazier in scoring.
Sophomore Gabi Gray and
junior Pam Lerminaux are vying
for the second forward spot. Gray
is an excellent position ballplayer
and rebounder, while Lerminaux
is the best outside shooter and
foul shooter on the squad.
The two candidates for center
are freshmen Janet Lilley and Pat
McPherson. Both 5’11” Lilley and

late languid and lost
,

The Spectrum

by Danny Parker
Campus Editor

Vol. 28. No. 38

State University of New York

at

Buffalo Wednesday, 30 November 1977

Student bus service for the Thanksgiving vacation suffered from a
lapse of communication between the Inter-Residence Council Business
(IRCB) and the Blue Bird Bus Company causing a three-to-four-hour
delay in the trip to the New York City metropolitan area.
IRCB had requested four busses; one to go directly to Nassua, one
to Queens, one to Westchester-Queens-Nassua, and
one to
Queens-Nassua. Due to a lack of communication, all four busses
stopped at all three locations on the trip from Buffalo to New York.
As a result of the confusion, the trip leaving Buffalo at 3:30 p.m.
last Thursday afternoon, arrived in New York at approximately 3:30
a.m. Vice President of Blue Bird Ed Bothwell said the problem arose
when students did not board the bus that was going to their specific
destination.

Wrong busses
According to Blue Bird President Magnano, “The extra stops were
caused by students being on the wrong busses.” He claimed that no one
from IRCB was there to check and make sure that students were on the
correct busses. He added, “It is not the responsibility of the bus
company to ensure that students are on the correct busses. We did not
sell the tickets, we do not know how much they charged, we do not
know who is on what bus, we just know where each bus is supposed to
go.”

Travel Service Manager for IRCB, Ray Dannenhoffer, claimed that
each student’s ticket was numbers as to what bus should be boarded
and that the mistake was Blue Bird’s. He continued, “I had two of my
employees checking tickets with a list. Besides, why would anybody
get on a bus where they didn’t belong?” He added that the likelihood
of students getting on the wrong bus was very slim because the busses
were full and only one bus was scheduled to go to Westchester.
One student explained that IRCB was checking tickets, but some
students had receipts, not tickets. “Therefore, they didn't know which
bus to get on,” he claimed. He stated that students were definitely on
the wrong busses.
Lost while asleep
Another problem that caused a delay was that the lead bus got lost
enroute between Westchester and Queens. Bothwell claimed that all
drivers bad routings before the trip, and that all four got lost when a
students advised the lead driver to take a quicker route. The student
claimed that he was asleep for the first twenty minutes after leaving
Westchester and that his advice came after the convoy was already lost.
He said, “We were already on the New England Thru way, where 1 knew
hew to get hack; when 1 told hinHiow to 40,” .
Bothwell admitted that the New England Thruway was not
originally on the scheduled route. Dannenhoffer questioned how the
busses could get lost after Westchester when one driver had specific
instructions on how to teach Queens. Bothwell said, “The busses did
not get lost going to points where they were originally scheduled.
“Perhaps our only mistake was not telling them (IRCB) where
problems could arise,” Bothwell added. “What the hell, no accidents
occurred, everyone got there and back and no busses broke down,” he
commented.
IRCB’s Dannenhoffer stated, “The problems weren’t our
problems, they were Blue Bird’s. I’m sorry, it wasn’t our fault. All you
can do is bitch.” He observed that most students on the busses coming
back “were pissed, but they understood.”

Trying our best
Dannenhoffer noted tjjat last year, Trail ways supplied the busses,
but this year “they didn’t have enough equipment available for us.” He
stated that Greyhound services cost $63 while Blue Bird only charged
$33 per student. “We are trying to do the best we can,” he added.
On the return trip to Buffalo on Sunday, busses were delayed due
to inclement weather. The New York State Thruway Authority termed
traffic conditions as slippery, wet, and icy in spots.
Students complained that, “especially on the way down, the
drivers were going too slow.” Bothwell said, “All the drivers had
specific instructions and the equipment was in excellent condition.” He
added, “I haven’t heard many complaints and I don’t know anything

about inadequate drivers. If there is a reason for discipline, it will be
taken.”
Dannenhoffer added that IRCB would examine the comparative
prices of other companies before deciding on what company to use for
the Christmas vacation trip.

New $17 health fee target
of SASU statewide boycott
by Mark Meltzer
Staff Writer

Spectrum

An open forum aimed at drumming up support
for a state-wide boycott of the recently imposed $ 17
health fee was sparsely attended Monday, November
21 in Haas Lounge. The fee has come under fire
from the Student Association of the State University
(SASU) since its announcement in September. SASU
has labeled the fee a “disguised” tuition hike that
will not be channeled to health services at all, but to
general SUNY revenues to offset a cutback in state
funding of the University system.
According to Buffalo SASU representative Allen
Clifford, the Director of Health Services at this
University, M. Luther Musselman, has admitted that
money from the Health Fee will be placed in the
general fund of unallocated monies and will not he
used to improve health services.
SASU representative Steve Allinger said that the
fee will be used to offset a J2.3 million budget cut.
Because it is a “fee” and not a tuition increase it
cannot be paid for by Tuition Assistance Program
(TAP) or Regents Scholarship awards. “Nothing is
improving,” said Clifford. “Our health services, if
any, have decreased.”

Nickels and dimes
Allinger warned that this could be the first in a
long line of “sneaked in fees that make it that much
harder to make it through the school year.” He said
the possibility
of the University charging a
construction or a utility fee is very real. “This opens
up a Pandora’s box,” Allinger stated, adding that the
fee must be fought to prevent Albany from “nickle
and diming students to death.”
But students don’t seem too upset by the fee, as
evidenced by the small turnout at the forum. “I’d
rather have them do that than have something lost
because of it,” explained one student. “I can afford
it, but for someone who has most of their tuition
paid by TAP or Regents Scholarship, 1 can see the

hassle.”
In an effort to eliminate the health fee, which is
already scheduled to be doubled next year, SASU is
organizing a boycott of the fee throughout the
SUNY system. Five schools, Geneseo, Brockport,
New Paltz, Oswego and SUNY at Buffalo will
attempt a boycott. AJlinger claimed a successful
boycott would massively disrupt the computer
system that processes bills. "All of a sudden they’d
have to process the forms fay hand,” he said.
“They’d probably be forced to negotiate with

students.”
Some schools, including Oneonta, Binghamton
and Potsdam are hesitant to participate in a boycott,
fearing possible consequences. “We will not ask
students (notably seniors) to jeopardize their
status,” Allinger said. Each student would probably
just get a $17 bill in the mail anyway, he added.
Letters to Carey
One possible safety valve for students, according
to Allinger, would be for SASU to collect the $17

from the students and hold it in an escrow account,
so that it could be paid if necessary. This would give
SASU some bargaining leverage. “What good is a fee
if you can’t collect it,” Allinger said. “I think they’ll
be highly embarrassed.”
For a boycott to succeed, Allinger said, the
parents of the students, whb often pay the b ll, must
be informed of the boycott and convinced that it is
;

important. SASU will be distributing a bulletin in

January with information on the boycott.
Meanwhile, SASU will be fighting the legality of
the fee, which Allinger claims is contradictory to the
Uniform Fees Act of 1963. The schools that are not
participating in the boycott will be conducting a
letter writing campaign aimed at Governor Hugh
Carey. SASU delegates will also be lobbying at the

State

Legislature in Albany.
Allinger felt confident that the students would
win the battle. “The way to fight a grievance is to
stick it out and clean it up,” he said.

The original complaint was

Ribler brought their complaint to

It’s not in the best interests of

can veto or approve.
Gott said that she still hasn’t
been able to have her pay raised

even though all of her supervisors

believes that the reason she did
not receive a raise is because of
her role in bringing the original

“I feel that the program has been

which to deal. Student loans are

�Bill would provide for
TAP coverage of fee
Legislation that
(SASU News Service/Albany Student Press)
would provide TAP coverage of $35 SUNY university fee has a better
chance of moving during the 1978-79 session of the State Legislature,
according to an Assembly spokesperson.
The mandatory fee was instituted in the early 1960’s to cover
construction costs of student union buildings on SUNY campuses.
According to a State University spokesperson, there was concern
within the SUNY sector that the college fee was actually serving the
same funding purpose as a tuition charge, but was not being covered by
TAP because of its status as a fee.
The proposal, which would raise the TAP award ceiling for SUNY
students from $750 to $775 for freshmen and sophomores and from
$900 to $925 for juniors and seniors, was sponsored by the State
Senate and Assembly last session. Neither bill was moved out of
committee.
Deputy Chancellor for Governmental Relations Herbert Gordon
said, “The New York State Dormitory Authority floated bonds to
cover the cost of the student union facilities. The college fee is a
revenue mechanism that will allow the finance agency to meet its
contract obligations with its bondholders.
“Such funding preceded Governor Nelson Rockefeller’s program
of captial construction payment through long-term financing which
now uses tuition as its source of revenue,” said Gordon.
The Assembly spokesperson said, “Last year there was concern
about the cost of such a program expansion $1.5 million for the first
year. This year is more likely to be a year of opportunity for TAP,
because of the improved fiscal environment and because it is an
election year. The State Legislature can take a more comprehensive
point of view on TAP proposals.”
Governor Hugh Carey may include the proposal in his budget
message to be delivered to the State Legislature in January, according
to the Assistant Secretary to the Governor on Education and the Arts
Henrik Dullea. “The proposal is an item the Governor is aware of,” said
Dullea.
Governor Carey recently announced his support of a $300 increase
in the TAP ceding that would affect students attending the state’s
private sector proposal at over $70 million over a period of four years.
SASU Legislative Director David Coyne said, “The SUNY students
who qualify for the maximum award would benefit from the college
fee proposd, since the $25 fee would be incorporated into the tuition
scale. CUNY’s college fee was included in the City University’s tuition
charge when tuition was imposed in 1976, so those entitled to the
ceiling award are already receiving TAP aid.”
Vice Chairman of the SUNY Board of Trustees James Warren said,
the
“If
TAP program is enriched this year, we hope that the public
university students will not be ignored or hurt. Costs are escalating for
the public college student as well as the private sector student.”

Retumables-only for IRCB
Last year, the Inter Residence Council Business, Inc.
(IRCB), which runs the Ellicottessen, the Grub in Governors
and the Underground in Goodyear and is the largest
distributor of canned beverages on campus, balked at a
proposal by NVPIRG to exclusively sell returnable bottles at
those three facilities. IRCB officials then cited lack of space
and an apparent lack of student interest in banning
non-retumables as reasons for not taking the initiative in
implementing such a praiseworthy system.
Indeed, it is projects such as these that illustrate why
NYPIRG is definitely one of the most important
organizations on this campus. The public interest group is
currently in the process of once again petitioning IRCB to
ban non-retumables and once again, that largest distributor
of cans and bottles on campus is refusing, still citing lack of
space at any one of its three facilities as the reason.
That space must be found, or made by IRCB officials.
They must find, within themselves, enough imagination to
revamp their retail outlets within their present confines. This
process specifically entails a shift in stock priorities and
space, a slight change in accounting procedures and the
creation of a new department for one of the memory banks
(one of the keys) of the cash register, the telephoning of
distributors to arrange quicker or more efficient deliveries so
as to prevent bottles from accumulating and creating
additional space problems and possible health hazards, and,
most importantly, the explanation to student customers that
for a few weeks, mixups and shortages in cold beverages
could occur because a new, progressive system of
returnables-only is being instituted, which will decrease
beverage-related litter, generally help clean up the
environment, and if used properly as an example, by a group
such as NYPIRG, lead to legislation making returnables-only
a state law.
Food Service, very rarely commended in this column,
must be praised in this instance because last year, at
NYPIRG's insistence, it implemented a returnable-only
policy on an experimental basis in the Rathskellar, which,
when proved successful, was expanded to all Food Service
retail operations including the Student Club, the Norton
Spine area. Governors and Porter Quad.
Assistant Director of Food Service Donald Bozek has
commented that inconveniences with bookkeeping and space
allocation did exist for a couple of weeks, but that a special
committee ironed out all the problems and now the
retumables-only policy is a very successful operation with
“no complaints at all" from anyone. If Food Service can do
it then so can I RGB. albeit its heavier volume of beverage
sales.
Legislation to ban non-returnables statewide is not idle
talk. Laws requiring mandatory deposit on all beverage
containers have been passed in Michigan, Oregon, South
Dakota and Vermont, in spite of many protests of lack of
space by retailers.
So, pressure is hereby put on I RGB to make whatever
changes are necessary in its operations to make welcome
room for returnables-only while continuing to satisfy its

My heart bleeds
To the Editor

I read with disgust managing editor Jay Rosen’s
article calling the death penalty “absurd” (The
Sftectrum , Move 23). His arguments are totally
irrational, and the entire article smells of the
bleeding heart liberalism which has choked the
quality of The Spectrum for as long as 1 can
remem ber.
I for one, Mr Rosen, am sick of America’s so
called system of “justice” which coddles our
criminals and sends our convicted murderers and
robbers back into the streets. Because of intense
pressure from liberals like you who constantly blame
society for the criminals’ wrongdoings, it is less safe
to walk the streets now than it ever was before.
In the Town of Cheektowaga, two police
officers, Robert A Burgess, and David J. Tolsma,
were murdered in cold blood while on duty: officer
Burgess on July 1 in a drugstore, and officer Tolsma,
on October 20 in a motel lobby. The Spectrum
hardly even mentioned these two shocking events in
their publication. Yet if history had been different,
if officer Burgess had managed to subdue the suspect
and haul him in, then The Spectrum would be
screaming “police brutality!” in their editorials and
their headlines.
Yes, Mr. Rosen, you liberals know all the
answers. So let’s hear it from all you bleeding hearts!
What do we do with suspect Harold Pointer from the
Burgess murder and Dwight Battles, suspect in the
Tolsma killing? Why of course! Let’s send them for
30 days of psychiatric treatment, then release them,
so they’ll be eligible for all sorts of giveaway welfare
programs which give them free apartments, food
stamps, a nice job, and a free college education.
Then they’ll be reformed, and they’ll be productive
members of society, right? Poppycock ! Although
liberals aren’t willing to admit it, it just never works
out that way. “People” like Pointer and Battles will
just rob and murder again and again. The only
solution to such cases is the electric chair. This

�Undeveloped crunch
To the Editor.

The Nestles Crunch bar you munch on is related
the problems of hunger and malnutrition in
developing countries. The purchase of that Crunch
bar, or of a jar of Nescafe coffee, contributes to the
enormous profits of the second largest food
corporation in the world, a corporation whose sales
practices have lead to protein-deficiency diseases and
death for thousands of Third World infants. When
you buy Souptime or Nesltes Quik or anything with
Libby’s on the label, you’re helping the Nestle
company maintain its annual turnover of five billion
dollars, more than the gross national product of
many underdeveloped nations.
How do Nestles profits directly relate to
malnutrition and death? The Swiss multinational
company produces baby food and posdered infant
milk formula. Nestle has vigorously promoted these
to

products (Lactogen, Nan) to hospitals and clinics in
Asia, Africa and Latin America. Nestle claims that

their artificial milk formulas are nutritious and
beneficial and are a healthy substitute for, or
supplement to, human breast milk. And they are.
When properly prepared, formula milk provides the
protein, vitamins and minerals a baby needs to
maintain health. When a mother has access to clean
water, fuel to sterilize utensils, and enough money to
buy the proper quantity, infant milk formula will
provide adequate nutrition for the first year of life.
These conditions often do not exist in poor
communities, however. Because of Western pressures
to bottle-feed, because of mass-media advertising
which establishes that “modern is best,” many
women who do not have clean water or enough
money succumb to the plea in Nestle’s radio jingles:
“Give your baby Lactogen; Lactogen will make him
grow . . .” Billboards picturing a smiling baby and a
milk project a powerful
can of powdered
psychological image; bottle feeding is on the increase
because it is a Western symbol of status and
affluence.
The result of Nestle’s promotional campaign,
coupled with a ceneral increased attraction to
Western ways, has been widespread malnutrition and
sometimes death. Research in Kenya, Venezuela,

Chile and Nigeria has shown a higher incidence of
sickness among bottle-fed babies than those who are

families. According to the Saturday Review of the
Sciences, “a laborer in Uganda may need to spend as
much as 33% of his daily wage for baby’s milk; in
Chile, 20%;

50%.”

in
Nestle continues to maintain that it cannot be
responsible for formula misuse Because of a strong
anti-bottle-feeding campaign, Nestle now uses less
severe methods of promotion. Recent policy changes
place an emphasis on the superiority of breast milk;
educational and instructional materials clearly
explain proper use of the formula; Nestle no longer
uses saleswomen in nurse’s uniforms to promote
radio
mass-media
jingles and
bottle-feeding;
advertising have been discontinued. All of these
changes are a significant step. The fact remains,
however, that poor mothers still have dirty water,
still cannot sterilize their utensils, still cannot afford
the proper amount of powdered milk. Nestle
continues to promote its baby foods to hospitals and
clinics, often donating posters and formula samples
under the guise of "nutritional education.” Nestle
continues to amass enormous profits from its

industry.

The production of artificial formula is based in
Vevey, Switzerland; Nestle USA is a subsidiary of
that company. Refusing to buy Taster’s Choice and
Nestea and Stouffer’s and all other Nestle products
made in the U.S. makes a financial impact on the
Swiss mother company. Writing letters of complaint
to the Nestle company in White Plains, N Y. will
undoubtedly have an effect othe company in
Switzerland. If enough people voice their opposition
to the continued practice of putting profits before
human beings, possibly Nestle will see their present
sales policy as the unethical and immoral practice
that it is. Possibly this multinational company, and
others like it, will reverse their trend toward greed
and self-interest to one of compassion and
responsibility.

Quick UFO demise
To the Editor

I would like to respond to an article written by
C. Chips on his appraisal of the rock band UFO. Last
week I attended a concert at the Century Theater
where I was able to get a first-hand look at this so
called “great” band. Appearing with UFO were two
of Canada’s better hard rock bands, Max Webster
and Rush. Max Webster, Canada’s answer to Frank
Zappa, was extremely impressive. Put into this
category, UFO was definitely outclassed.
Getting back to the article. Chips states that.
“UFO has probably one of the most low keyed
positions in the rock press.” I can clearly understand
why after listening to their drawn out, lackadaisical
performance at the Century. Chips also says, “There
are no long enduring drum, bass, or guitar solos, just
a pure and enthusiastic barrage of sound.” In other

words, UFO doesn’t employ the musicians with the
capabilities or skill to perform a half way decent
solo.
Later in the article, Chips lauds Paul Raymond
on his adaptability to switch from keyboards to
rhythm guitar. In concert, however, Raymond’s
guitar playing barely could be heard: his versatility
went unnoticed
I agree with one point Chips makes in his
review. He says of UFO’s bassist Pete Way, “All he
does is jump from stage left to right.” That’s about
all Pete can do because he can’t play bass worth shit!
In conclusion, “The future of UFO will
definitely soar to higher tangents,” is a very biased
appraisal on Chips’ part. Personally, I can't find a
single good point about this band and 1 see a quick
demise to their future.

FEEDBACK
Unstable male sexuality
To the Editor
While i cannot respond in sufficient detail to all
six responses to my letter on gay rights, kindly allow
me a few paragraphs in which to deal with three of
the issues they raised.
A controversy arose over the extent of
homosexual behavior in America. 1 was challenged to
“refute” Kinsey’s statistics. The truth is that there is
nothing to refute, and their repeated claim that the
Kinsey Report “proved” that 16% of American
males are gay makes me wonder if any of them have
ever even glanced at the book. First of all, Kinsey
rejects the use of the label “homosexual”; he refers
varying
instead
to persons
with
degrees of
homosexual experience. He establishes six categories,
ranging from a single episode to a lifetime of
exclusively homosexual practice (Kinsey et.
Sexual Behavior in the American Male, p, 617).

al..

Second, his definition of homosexual behavior
itself varies. Sometimes, he uses as his criteria
“homosexual experiences or reactions'' which would
include the entertainment of erotic thoughts about
men in the absence of any contact (p. 650). Other
times, he says that he confines his data to “those
who were brought to orgasm as a result of (physical
contact with other males].” (p. 623)
Third, as a rsult of these vagaries in criteria and

Fifth, Kinsey’s data are confined entirely to
Whites. Those using the Kinsey Report to prove the
wide extent of homosexuality have been neither
honest nor thorough in their research. The typical
estimate, seen time and again both before and after
Kinsey’s data were published, is about 5 percent tcf.
One in Twenty , Bryan Magee, p 43). If this figure be
inaccurate, let us have proof, but not from the
Kinsey Report.

Implicit in every letter was the assumption that
homosexual relationships are simply an alternative
form of human love, with the same potential for
fulfillment as the love of a man and a woman. Most
gay relationships are shallow and transitory, as
figures supplied by former Kinsey associate William
Simon illustrate. In a study of 550 white gay men,
50 percent indicated that most of their sexual
partners were one-night stands; 10-20 percent said
that they frequently had sex in public toilets; and
many more made contacts in other public places,
about 30 percent had been robbed by a sexual
partner. 40 percent had never had an affa.r lasting as
long as twelve months (The Sensuous Society,

�Fraudulent lawsuit

Still raining, still burning
To the Editor
The students have had to contend with quite a
few problems at this University in the past several
years; the 1970 riots were only the beginning. We
have had an unresponsive administration, a divided
campus, rotten weather, and living conditions which
prohibit any expression of humanity (viz. Ellicott).
The one hassle that we don’t need is from our own
ranks, and yet this is precisely where a lot of
uncomfortably bad vibrations are coming from. To
be specific, I believe that Sub-Board has reached a
point in its organizational development where it

dominates student life and student government,
rather than acting as simply an administrative servant
of the students.
The Billy Joel concert tickets is only the latest
in a growing line of Sub-Board abuses of the student
interest. Remember the pay-offs to “hard workers”
last winter? Did you know that Sub-Board has its
own computer! This, in a University strapped for
funds. And now the latest insult to our intelligence,
we are told that we can’t know how much our
employees make at Sub-Board because we couldn’t
understand the figures. My God, old Bob Haldeman
couldn’t have come up with a better line.
Well, if Sub-Board won’t tell you how much
Tom Van Nortwick makes, I’ll give you a ballpark
figure . . $20,000 a year. Yep, that’s what we the
students pay; remember, he’s only the top cookie.
I’ll tell you one thing; I don’t care how much that
damn bureaucrat works, it’ll be a cold day in hell
that he or any of our “elected” Sub-Board members
can justify that waste to me. Student government
and entertainment is properly a volunteer or at most
a non-profit effort; at the pSy Mr. Van Nortwick is

getting, 1 believe that both ideals are being violated.
As much as I am outraged at the salary of Mr
Van Nortwick, I cannot really blame him; there are
few students in this world who would turn down the
opportunity to do what he’s doing for the money he
makes. What really gets me angry is the attitude and

actions of the Sub-Board student

representatives;

they are the people who voted the salaries and
okayed the computer. 1 am ashamed to be a graduate

student who has served as a Graduate Student
Senator, when 1 realize that Mitch Zoler, a fellow
graduate student, heads up the representatives. 1 am
sure that Mr. Nagarajan, GSA president, feels more
than a little embarassed by Zoler’s activity; the GSA
president was advised not to nominate Mr. Zoler
because Mitch was a little “too close” to the
Sub-Board bureaucracy.
I know that Mr. Nagarajan has since fought,
with some other student associations, the wasteful
spending patterns of Sub-Board; Mr. Sartisky, the
current GSA representative, was the person who

efforts have been in vain, because the smaller student
associations do not have equal voice on the
Sub-Board Council. The Student Association (SA),
by virtue of their overwhelming contribution to the
Sub-Board operating budget, has the dominant say in
Sub-Board affairs. I have no quarrel with this

Place yourself in the following situation. Your
son has run in between two parked cars, into the
path of another, sustaining only a few minor cuts
and bruises, nothing serious. The driver, even though
not at fault, offers to pay the medical expenses as a
friendly gesture. A year later, your son breaks his leg
falling off a bike. You think to yourself, “the broken
leg was damaged in the accident, thereby causing it
to break easily when your son fell off his bike.”
Your lawyer advises this argument may hold up in

arrangement.
I do get very upset when 1 find that the
dominant group of the Sub-Board Council are the
people who buy every piece of propagandic bull
given out by the Sub-Board management. Of course,
every bureaucracy will ask for increased budgets
every year; nature and bureaucracies seem to fill
vacuums very well
even when artificially
constructed. But for a student representative body
to give in to such demands is acting in bad faith,
with respect to their constituents; it’s either that or

the courtroom. Even though you fully realize the
traffic accident had no bearing on your son breaking
his leg, you figure this is a chance to make some big,
easy money. You sue the driver of the car for
$30,000.
The preceding situation is real, not fictional. It
is extremely real to my sister. She is the driver being
sued for $30,000. What would have been your
actions in the same situation? To those of you who
would not even think of suing, I commend you on
your honesty and moral values. To those of you who
would take the “grab all you can” attitude, I’d say
you have a few screws loose upstairs concerning the
treatment of your fellow man. Maybe this is the
basis for some of today’s social problems? There are
too many people in today’s society with the “take
care of yourself, screw the other guy” philosophy.
Keep this in mind if you ever have the chance to
sue under false conditions with the possibility of
making a few, quick bucks. You just could be the
next person with the $30,000 lawsuit shoved in your
face.

-

they’re just plain dumb.

So what’s new with all this criticism? Is it just
more articulation of what’s wrong with this
place? No, because I’m going to tell students what
can be done. Sub-Board is in need of an independent
management work audit, to see if the job it does is
done effectively, not just efficiently. And this audit
can be done by hiring students from management at
one

both the undergraduate and graduate levels to do
this job. Further, I recommend to those student
associations who are justly critical of the Sub-Board
activities to pull out people who don’t need to bang
their heads against walls when no one is listening.
Find out what accounting firms in the area are
competitive with Sub-Board’s accounting charges.
Work out your own schedule of activities using the
resource which is most valuable and least tapped on
this campus, The Students
It has been done in the
past, and still is done on spme campuses. Make
Sub-Board be competitive and effective as an agency
for students. Right now, the undergraduates are
being ripped off from the benefits of their 67 dollar
student fee. So are the graduate and professional
students who pay to almighty God of Sub-Board.
Any future referendum on fees should be closely
examined, and better alternative made available to
student voters than simply an up or down vote.
Future representatives to Sub-Board should be
screened by voters in order to find out their views on
the activities of that bureaucratic disaster.
In the end, it comes down to the student voter;
this is where the minions of Van Nortwick, and the
representatives on the council are placing their bets.
They know how to manipulate student apathy. They
know that they have the upper hand in the voting
booth, because we, the students, never say
no more waste! Before we go hit the
effectively
streets in protest to the latest administrative outrage,
maybe we ought to clean our own dirty linen -nowI

KMT propaganda
To the k'ditor.

1 wrote a letter to you last week I did not see il
in The Spectrum, just like several other letters about
spying, written by other Chinese students. I don’t
think it’s quite fair
not only to us, but also to all
UB students, because you are providing an image
which only represents one side of the story. But I
still want to try it, for the last time.
1. It’s a typical story happening around this
country, in other universities, supported by some
organizations, in a systematic way. First, one or two
pro-C'ommunist present a false charge about “KMT
without proof and without result. Second,
spying”
the US—China People Friendship Association” or
similar organizations use it as propaganda, and for
slander against a government they don’t like.
2. One of the reasons they are doing such things
is that your country is now in a situation to make
decisions about “China,” and they are trying to keep
you from making a rational decision.
3. Anyone who really believes that there are
spies in our University should go to the F.B.l.
Obviously, no one did that nor will they do it,
because this is not what they really believed, and
that is not their real purpose.
4. I did not try to do propaganda work for my
country. I did not attack the Chinese Communist
Government. All I want is to let the students know
some of the facts here in our University. But I am
very sorry to see the unfair attitude of our student

provide care for his animal during
a vacation and be prepared at all
times for medical emergencies.
‘Don’t over-dog’
Roger Caras, an ABC -TV
correspondent assigned full-time
to animal coverage, says the first
rule in becoming an owner
(especially the first time) is “don’t
over-dog yourself.” In other
words do not get more dog than
you can handle. He asserts that
with over a hundred pure breeds,
and an infinite number of
variations in random-bred dogs,
there are no simple rules. A dog’s
size, coat, activity needs and
aggressive tendencies are all
factors that must be considered
when buying Caras says. Another

important consideration is where
you and your dog will live.
Apartments, for instance, are not
ideal for breeds who need a great
deal of exercise, such as Irish
Setters or Old English Sheepdogs.
A dog is going to cost money.
The initial purchase price depends
on the kind of dog you want.
Show quality dogs usually start at
the $400 mark while the average
pure-bred, pet quality dog runs
between 75 and 250 dollars. Dogs
at animal shelters, like the Erie
County SPCA, are available at a
very modest adoption fee.
People purchasing dogs should
make sure to check things out
before making a mistake for
which they will be sorry. And as
any experienced dog-owner will
say, upon acquiring a puppy, the
key word is “patience.

Biology Department
studied to find areas
needing improvement
An evaluation of this University’s Biology Department took place
in October to determine what improvements, if any, are needed to
upgrade the Department’s programs. The evaluation, the results of
which have not yet been disclosed, was conducted by professors from
various universities including Cornell,
Harvard, Vanderbilt, and
Rockefeller Institute.
The purpose of the review, according to Biology Department
Chairman Om P. Bahl, is “to point out strengths and weaknesses in the
Department.’’ He added that the major weakness now is in the
guidance for future directions of the Department. “We want to find
out where to focus our attnetion to strengthen weak areas. It would be
premature to suggest what areas need strengthening before the results
are received,” said Bahl.
Professors on the Committee were provided with documents
related to biology programs, including research faculty records, one
month prior to the review. Committee members then met with faculty
members to gain information necessary to make an accurate evaluation.
All Department activities were evaluated under Bahl’s initiation.
The Biology Department has not been singled out for evaluation.
“Graduate and undergraduate school programs are periodically
reviewed at this University,” stated Associate Vice President of
Academic Affairs Claude Welch.
The results of the review will probably go to the Vice President of
Academic Affairs Ronald Bunn, according to Bahl. The results were
expected three weeks after the review took place and have not yet been
received.

its
remarks
concerning
and

international
reputation as an institute for
higher
learning. Its cultural
programs and economic benefits
to the community have also been
noted, with favor.
One major reason for the
change in community opinion is
that many local residents are
connected to the university in
some way. Hundreds of them
work there or have children who
have attended. Stony Brook has
not only been accepted by the
community, it has, in fact,
become a large part of it. Some
900 faculty and staff members
live within a five mile radius.
About three-quarters of Stony
Brook’s graduates have settled on
Long Island, many in close
proximity to the school. The
university presently pumps about

$150 million into the Long Island

annually.
The college opened in 1957 in
temporary quarters in Oyster Bay.
It was named the State University
College on Long Island and
designed to be a small institution
for preparing math and science
teachers on the high school and
college level. The school was to
move in 1962 to a 480 acre site in
Stony Brook donated by Ward
Melville. However, between the
planning and the execution, the
SUNY board changed its master
plan and made Stony Brook one
of the four university centers. It
was also picked to house a
medical school and a teaching
hospital. Many residents felt
“tricked” by the imposition of a
multiuniversity where they had
been expecting a small school.
Campus-community relations
hit a low in the late 1960’s. In
1968 police raided the campus
and arrested more than 30
students on drug charges. This led
many community residents to
refer to Stony Brook as the “Drug
Store.” A year later students
stoned and burned campus police
cars when more drug arrests were
made. In 1970, students blocked
traffic in the community in an
anti-war protest in front of the
draft board office. Student
demonstrations

housing, and any administrative

Asked why he thought so, he
replied. “Mainly because of the
money it brings local businesses
and because as the area has grown,
many of the new people have a
husband or wife who works
there.”
Since there is no local shopping
area within walking distance of
the campus, the college does not
have a community with which it
can identify. As one administrator
noted, “We need some kind of
business zone near the campus. I
see the development as inevitable.

At any price
you can afford to be choosy.
Because the value of every diamond is
determined by four characteristics (cut, color
clarity and carat weight), you can always use
these qualities to your best advantage.
Perhaps you’re attracted by the grandeur
of a large diamond. Well sometimes a large
stone can cost the same as a smaller one.
Simply because it has a little more color. Or a
delicate birthmark hidden inside.
On the other hand, you may feel size isn’t
the most important quality. Then you could
choose a diamond that’s small, but perfectly
cut to sparkle with an icy-white elegance.
In any case, you’ll be able to find one to
suit your personality. Because each one
is an individual, with its own combination of
characteristics. And you can use these
qualities any way you wish, to help you decide
what’s precisely right for you.
But the important thing to remember is to
buy a diamond engagement ring you’ll be
happiest with. You’ll be sharing it for a lifetime
with someone you love.
And for that reason alone, you should
be choosy.

A diamond is forever.

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;

Transitioned aid

Mayor orders full reports
by division heads for Griffin
by Richard Floersch
Spectrum Staff Writer
Mayor Stanley Makowski last
week ordered his department and
division heads to assist the

Mayor-elect, James Griffin, by
submitting a “full report” on city
operations and projects in which
fourteen departments will be

did not know offhand of any city
administration that had prepared

any transition documents.
“I believe this is a generous
gesture on the part of Mayor
Makowski. With the pressing
problems that this city faces at
this moment, Mr. Griffin cannot
afford a month layoff to learn,”
commmented
Rosenow.
The
Director was apprehensive about
Griffin’s campaign pledge to clean
house in City Hall “because it
takes time to get acquainted with
the problems properly.”

Debt and taxes
One of the problems Griffin
will have to deal with in respect to
finance is
the issue of the
Occupancy Tax Refund. This tax
was levied last year on all tenants
in the city of Buffalo requiring a
payment of eight to ten dollars, to
be collected by the landlords.
However, the City Council wishes

Another financial issue is the
school board deficit. Currently,
the school board is overspending
to the tune of $11.1 million for
this fiscal year (’77-’78). “We are
accustomed to mild overspending
but this is quite a figure to deal
with,” said Rose now, who sees
layoffs, closing the schools down
for a period, and federal aid as
possibilities.

Egyptian President Anwar el-Sadat delivered an eloquent plea for
peace and a blunt reminder of the deep differences separating his
nation and Israel Sunday. He appeared before the Israeli Parliament,
fulfilling his promise of a week ago, speaking in Arabic to the hushed
chamber and beginning what many hope to be the end of 29 years of
hostility.
Sadat made it clear that he accepted the existence of Israel, but
repeated his belief that lasting peace in the Mideast depends on Israeli
withdrawal from occupied Arab lands and the recognition of

Palestinian rights.
Sadat declared that he had not undertaken this historic journey to
Israel to conclude a peace agreement, to end the state of belligerence or
to arrange a new disengagement of troops.
“1 have come to deliver a message,” he said, to insist upon a
peace with justice.”

Right to exist
Sadat pledged

to the Israeli audience that a peace settlement
would include the recognition of Israel’s right to exist within secure
boundaries. “If you want to live with us in this part of the world . . .
we welcome you among us with all security and safety,” the Egyptian
President said
However, Sadat continued, “I tell you that you have to give up
once and for all the dreams of conquest and to give up the belief that
force is the best method in dealing with the Arabs.”
Prime Minister Menahem Begin replied in his speech, “We do not
believe in might and we have never put our trust in might in dealing
with an Arab country.” Referring to the return of territories occupied
in the 1967 war. Begin said that Jews “well not be put within range of
fire for annihilation
He ignored the Palestinian issue entirely. Begin
praised Sadat for his “courage” in making his trek, which has prompted
expressions of outrage across the Arab world.
”

Proposed more visits
The Prime Minister tried

to draw his visitor into considering

two-nation peace arrangements, which Sadat had

Egyptian would be free to come to Israel.

leaders he would avoid

Begin also proposed that leaders of other Arab “confrontation”
states, such as Jordan, Syria and Lebanon, should follow Sadat’s
example and come for talks in Israel
President Carter saw the proclamations of the two leaders as “a
contribution to the cause of peace

the Administration seemed to be uncertainty, coupled with concern
that Sadat’s visit might simply end, leaving no visible change in either

to appear supportive of the Egyptian leader’s bold move in visiting

advancing chances for peace, the high-risk trip might increase tensions

�Emergency medical services at the EUicott Complex and
Governor’s Residence Halls are defective, according to Emergency
Medical Technician (EMT) organizer. Bob Smilling.
The Health Service satellite unit in Porter Quad of the EUicott
Complex g staffed by only one Registered Nurse who may be either
out to lunch or already helping someone when an emergency arises,
SmOling said, and there may be problems responding to a second call.
These factors, according to Smilling, add up to a delay in first
response personnel arriving to aid and render care. In most cases this is
not of critical importance, but in the very least, it is uncomfortable for
the injured person, he said.
Smilling’s proposal to change the system by starting an emergency
medical team would employ students who meet the requirements of
the. American Red Cross Advanced First Aid Care Level and who
currently live on the Amherst Campus to supply first responder
emergency care.
Those students, who must also be certified in Basic Life Support
Level, such as cardiac pulmonary resuscitation, automobile extrication,
stabilization of fractures, emergency childbirth, alcohol and drug
poisoning and treatment of severe bums and frostbite, will be equipped
with a pager so that they can be reached by University Police when
needed.
The College H First Aid Coordinator and his assistants will take
care of the coordination of services and other administrative tasks,
Smilling explained. For three years, Coordinator Wayne Hettich and
Smilling have been trying to organize a team of First Aid Technicians
with current advanced training in emergency certification from Red
Cross and basic life support certification from the Red Cross or Heart
Association. There would be a technician staffed at both Governors
and Ellicott, whose purpose would be to “cut down on response time
and make the patient feel more comfortable until more" help can
arrive,” Smilling elaborated.
The advantage of having First Aid Technicians on campus would
be a more efficient use of health service personnel, he continued. The

The presentation was the first
of this year’s lecture series
sponsored by the William H.
Fitzpatrick Chair of Political
Science at Canisius College. At the
beginning of the talk, Lindsay
described his deep “roots” with
Buffalo, mentioning his strong
alliance with Democratic Party
Chairman Joseph Crangle. He
described political life as an art
rather than a science, said “there

are no fixed rules” and claimed all
“are meant to be broken at
some time.” Lindsay described
the U.S. House of Representatives
as a “house that is not always a
home” and as a very good club.

Obligations ofSA
senators in writing
The Student Association (SA) has resolved to take definite steps in
dealing with all the major problems facing students at this University
through the formation of Task Forces, according to SA President
Dennis Delia. The job of each task force is to define problems in their
designated areas and suggest viable solutions to each. Delia said, “We
want to solve all our problems in one fell swoop, or at least, to start
working on them.”
The formation of task forces represents the first time in SA history
that the obligations of the senators have been so clearly elocidated in
writing, according to Delia. Vice President of Sub Board I, Jeffrey
lessoff, commented, “In the past there was a feeling that the Executive
Committee knew what was going on, but the senators didn’t. Now the
senators will be expected to work and give direction to us [the
Executive Committee] the same way we have been supplying it to
them.”
There have been attempts in the past at forming committees,
according to Delia, but people didn’t sign up and little was ever
accomplished. Now SA has provided itself with three Task Forces and
each has been assigned specific areas of interest to cover. The Academic
Affairs Task Force, under the leadership of Bob Sinkewicz, will deal
with library problems, SUNY planning, “R” date, credit/contact hours
and academic advisement.
The Student Affairs Task Force, headed by Paul Glauber, Will
cover campus and off-campus housing, transition problems, the
possibility of an Amherst Bike Compound, dorm problems, and an
anti-rape escort system. The third group, the Student Activities and
Services Task Force, under the direction of Pat Lovejoy, as of yet has
not been assigned any particular areas of interest, but as Lovejoy put it,
“We’re looking.”
As to why the motion was passed, Delia stated, “We want to be
more efficient. We want the entire Senate to be involved Lessoff
mentioned the possibility of disciplinary action being taken should the
senators not carry out their part of the newly implemented duties and
responsibilities, and added “This is telling them they’ve got to do it!”
The Senate plans to hold session within the month at which time
the new task-force system will meet its first test.

To the Editor

I have been a student at U.B. for three years.
During this time many an issue of The Spectrum has

passed through my hands. Through the auspices of
the aforementioned tabloid I have been subjected to

a modicum of objective journalism and an unduly
large amount of allegations, accusations and other
types of biased nonsense.
Much of the latter has been directed at our own

country, the United States, with respect to its
intercourse with underdeveloped nations
When I picked up Wednesday’s (Nov. 16) copy
of The Spectrum, 1 was particularly offended by an
editorial entitled “Third World WeekIt was a very

not been entirely evenhanded either economically or
politically, nevertheless a lot of good has been done
by the U S. in the Third World. It consists of foreign
aid grants, loans by the private sector and the World
Bank (which we support heavily), relief in times of
natural disasters, and the Peace Corps, just to cite a
few examples. Therefore when 1 come across such
naive “holier than thou” viewpoints such as the sort

propounded in The Spectrum often are,

In the future I would like to suggest that The
Spectrum examine all issues in an objective manner
more suited to the journalistic endeavor Finally,
hope that from now on The Spectrum will make an
effort to inform itself about the topics it reports on
(e g. in this case a few economics, history and poly
sci cou ;es would help).

However, I think it at least qualifies me to talk about

Commentary

Assertion of Co-op
support and criticism
of buying at Cavages
by John H. Reiss
Managing

Editor

The two page Cavages advertisement that appeared in Wednesday’s
edition of The Spectrum evoked a considerable amount of
consternation and shocked dismay on the part of the student

here. It seems people felt that The Spectrum the
self-proclaimed defender of student rights and bastion of bleeding heart
liberalism, committed a heinous act in helping to promote the
capitalistic endeavors of one Carl Cavage, the Lord of Buffalo record
sales who, for two years, has savagely engaged the University in a law
suit aimed at closing the student Record Co-op.
population

,

And why shouldn’t these students be mad?
The Spectrum has been one of the most fervent backers of the
Co-op’s plight since Cavage undertook his actions in the name of free
enterprise. It’s editorials in November of 1975, when the problem first
arose, severely castigated the University administration for acquiescing
to Cavage’s monopolistic demands and shutting down the student run
organization when Cavage voiced his disapproval and threatened to
take action. Spearheading that decision was University Vice President
for Finance and Management Edward Doty, whose- resignation we
called for only days later.

University President Robert Ketter approved plans for a student

13, 1971, claiming “the end result
could be termed cultural.” Ketter incurred certain guidelines on the
organization to which the Co-op was to strictly adhere under Doty’s
watchful eye. For whatever reason, whether due to Doty’s
incompetence, the Co-op’s negligence or a combination of the two, the
Co-op did not foDow the guidelines, providing the administration a
convenient excuse to close the store.

run Record Co-op on September

Upon its creation, Doty had termed the Co-op’s legality “marginal
best,” but when Cavage lodged his protest, Doty turned his back on
the students, calling the store “an illegal enterprise.” We question
today, as we did two years ago, “why was it legal then, and illegal

at

now?”

What is maddeningly obvious to all observers is that the
administration was perfectly willing to supply its students with a
“beneficial” and “cultural” service as long as it did not interfere with
the University’s outside business interests. When the administration was
forced to make a decision whether to serve the students or the business
community, it stepped on the students. When adversity knocked, so
did the administration’s knees.
When Ketter finally overruled Doty and reopened the Co-op, he
placed it under such restrictive measures
regulating its inventory,
sales and hence, hours
that its utility to students is questionable

So why does The Spectrum now display two pages of precious
space advertising the evil man’s wares? Because, as explained in
Friday’s editorial, Sir Cavage has us by the discs. He advertises through
the National Educational Advertising Service (NBAS), an organization
which, we are told, supplies us with a considerable portion of our
annual revenue. If we were not to accept Cavages ads, and the Editorial
Board is united in its opposition to their appearance in our publication,
we would run the risk of NBAS cancelling its account with us. Should
that occur, The Spectrum could be forced to reduce the size and
frequency of its issues, and would be placed on much shakier financial
ground.

Nevertheless, many of those who are cognizant of The Spectrum's
predicament insist that there is something that can be done. Get more
ads, print shorter papers, do something, they say. However, if students
are indeed sincere in their desire never to see a Cavages ad in their
newspaper, they can do something.
The Spectrum is funded by student mandatory fees, receiving
$35,000 from Sub Board I. Students who object to the display of
Cavages ads should implore their government, the Student Association
(SA), to reimburse The Spectrum for the losses it would incur by losing
the NEAS account. SA is financially troubled as is, but a number of its
officials told The Spectrum that they objected to the ad, and said
something should be done about it immediately.

Barring rampant hypocracy, students should find an open ear at
SA. Failing that, students could take it upon themselves to organize a
The Spectrum/Cavages fund to make up the difference in revenue. If
every undergraduate here donated just over one dollar to the drive,
Cavages ads would be kept out of the paper. Most practical of all,
however, is for students to use their own discretion while purchasing
records. Cavage engaged in the lawsuit against the C’o-op in order to
compel captively bound students to frequent his store. But nobody is
forcing students to go to Cavages, and sympathy and commitment to
the Coop’s cause should provide the impetus to purchase records
elswhere. The burden of fighting Cavage’s reaping of financial benefits
from the closing of the Coop lies with the students.

Temporary Health Service

University Health Services will soon add a new

Director of University Health Services Dr. M Luther
Musselman, the projected operation will he “sloppy
at best.”
The new unit will be located in two rooms on
the ground floor of the Porter Quad. Vice President
for Facilities Planning, John Telfer commented that
the delay in expansion is due to lack of available
space. Telfer stated that whichever group is currently
occupying the needed offices will be asked to

of the addition of a doctor for consultation two
hours a day Lab testing and prescriptions will still
have to be obtained, at the Michael Hall unit on the
Main Street Campus.
Musselman explained
that the proposed
expansion will be temporary at best. “Eventually
there will be one Health Service unit, located at the
Amherst Campus,” he said. When asked why
relocation to Amherst has been slow, when the great
majority of the University population and activities
are already located there, Musselman replied, “No
unit

building out there has been designated for Health
Services, nor are we iri the building schedule.”

Half baked
Musselman added that after the expansion there
will be “one half-baked and one really good service.”
He said that this compromise is insufficient because
labs and the pharmacy will remain on Main Street.
The necessity of adequate health care on
Amherst was exemplified by an Ellicott resident,
who was recently ill. “1 had to take a bus and walk
in the blustery, snowy, cold weather to Michael Hall
just to see the doctor,” she said. “If tests were
deemed necessary, I would have had to return the
next day for the results and possibly a prescription. I
know of one student who passed out on the bus
while travelling to obtain her test results,” she
added.
One Ellicott Resident Advisor commented:
“With more residents here and over 50 percent of
the classes on this campus, the extent of Health
Services located on Main Street as opposed to here is
ridiculous. During last year’s blizzard there was a
great fear of someone being hurt because there were
no doctors here,” he stated.

U. S. relations and the world bridge to somewhere

Foreign Policy Symposium

by Terry Martin
Spectrum

Staff Writer

There has been no fundamental change of
foreign policy since Carter has been President,
according to panelists Ronald Meltzer of the Political
Science Department, Michael Pyne of the Economics
Department, and Clifton Yearley of the History
Department who spoke before an informal audience
in a symposium held last Tuesday in the Ellicott
Complex.

Meltzer, who spoke first on “The United States
and the Less Developed World,” began by describing
the background of relations between the U.S. and
the Third World in a simplistic view. According to
Meltzer, the Third World occupies a position of
increasing importance in the world political arena.
“No longer can the world be politically divided by
the traditional east-west boundary of the
superpowers,” he said. “Now a north-south
boundary exists between the rich, industrialized
countries and those that are beginning to develop, in
other words, the haves and the have-nots.” A process
of decolopialization has been occurring since the
early 1960s, and the Third World is calling for a new
international economic order, a redistribution of
wealth and power to replace the old order that was
created after World War II, according to Meltzer,
Meltzer continued, “In the earlier period of
Kissinger-Nixon foreign relations, our foreign policy
was marked by a blatant disregard for the developing
countries, and tended to focus instead on the
existing power relationships and the attending of
detente.” This began to change in 1973, according to
Meltzer, with the confrontation between the U.S.
and the Organization of Petroleum Exporting
Countries (OPEC) over oil. It was then that the U.S.
first felt OPEC’s economic prowess.
There followed in the years 1973-76, a period
of significant strife between the industrialized
nations and the emerging Third World with intense
confrontation in the United Nations.

Change in tone
“The more demands they made, the more
resistant became the White House, and vice versa,”
Meltzer said. “Beginning with Carter, there has been
a change of tone (though not necessarily of

substance) and a feeling that it is a legitimate foreign
policy concern to deal with their economic
development,” he said. “The Carter administration
has been more sensitive and both we and they are
moderating demands as a result. Also, the
appointment of Young as ambassador to the U.N.
has helped to change the tone,” Meltzer concluded.
Meltzpr asserted that the U.S. has a great deal of
economic interest in the Third World. He contended

that the American government can’t ignore them
anymore because of a number of factors: its strong
reliance on their raw materials, the fact that 30
percent of our imported oil comes from the Third
World, and approximately one third of American
trade exports will go there (this will grow as they
continue to develop) which, translated into financial
data, is $28 billion, a number,which is expected to
double in the next ten years and create two million
more jobs for Americans. American corporations
have investments worth over $60 billion at market
value in the developing countries.
Significant differences exist
“There is now a trend toward an involving
trade-off,” said Meltzer. “The industrialized
countries want increased access to oil and raw
materials, and the Third World wants increased
access to capital, markets, and technology to escape
their traditional dependence on the former.”

In his closing remarks, Meltzer stressed that
there are still very significant differences that will
probably take a long time to iron out. “The focus of
the Third World will be on changing the structural
relationship with the industrialized countries, and
case-by-case basis
the focus of the U.S. will be on
of individual countries and their problems,” he
concluded. There will be fundamental changes in the
nature and quality of political relationships, and an
inclination toward interdependence where each
country must deal with others in joint policy-making
ventures, Meltzer added.
Pyne followed next with “The Causes of
International Crises.” In his opening remark, he
made known that he disagreed with Meltzer on one
point, and that is that he believes the world was
»

always interdependent.

No workable theory
According to Pyne, in 1971 Joan Robinson, an
economics expert, pointed to a bankruptcy of
economic theory saying that present theory takes no
account of societal structure. Pyne stressed that
there is presently no workable theory that exists to
completely explain the causes of international crises
and worldwide economics, and that the complexities

Pyne stated that Carter’s foreign policy did not

machinery, and Carter cannot govern the direction
that they will take.”
Yearley was the final panelist of the symposium,
and he spoke on "Perceptions of Domestic Policies
as Determinants of American Foreign Policy.”
Yearley said, “We have had many years of
bi-polarity, but this period has passed away except

for the continued existence of a nuclear balance. We
how live in a world of pluralism.” According to
Yearley, our resultant diminution of power is being
made up for by Carter’s moralism.

The era of the nation sovereign to itself is over,
according to Yearley. “In fact, it is almost ridiculous
to speak in terms of foreign policy,” he said. “Two
hundred ten million people move back and forth
between

different countries every year. Political

states are entwined with multinational corporations
and their borders are becoming vague because of

Domestic concerns
In terms of foreign policy the U.S. is more

concerns, according to Yearley. “Our foreign policy
will reflect this. The Carter administration has to pay
attention to matters of moral rectitude since that is
of concern here.” But he also warned that “they

Just as inevitably, some began to view the Bridge as a sexual
symbol, representing the frustrations of a collegiate sex life, since it did
not connect with anything. More importantly, the Bridge betokened
the bureaucratic blundering and ineptitude of the State, a perfect
monument to all the scourges of attending a public university.

The

Balloons and beer

In 1974, plans were unveiled to complete the Bridge to Nowhere,
which proposed extending it to a new Fine Arts center. In order to
accomplish this architectural improvisation, the Bridge would have to
make several right angle turns.
The turns were made, the structure by-passing the library
altogether, and today the Bridge no longer leads to Nowhere. On
November II, the completed Bridge was officially opened amidst
dedication ceremonies and the release of thousands of colored
balloons. The pageantry was followed by a beer blast. The student
newspaper, Statesman, termed the opening “symbolic of nothing"
since much of the campus remains unbuilt. Apparently someone
agreed. The President of the school was hit in the face with a pie at the
ceremonies. Fittingly, the pie missed its mark, striking a glancing blow
to the administrator
Student attitudes towards the bridge varied widely. To many, The
Bridge to Nowhere became the essence of Stony Brook. "It’s like the
whole campus is looking for completion but never finding it,” said one
student. Others were more ambivalent. “I never walked on it, I’ll never
walk on it It’s a waste of money,” went one comment.
Over the years, synthesizing absurd theories concerning the Bridge
became a campus pasttime. It was suggested that the bridge was really a
giant diving board for the University President’s personal swimming

said President was unable to swim. Some looked to put the Bridge to
practical use, perhaps as a giant book drop slanted to the library, or as
a practice stretch for the track team’s 100-yard dash men. Since the
bridge is only 87 yards long, it was proposed that the runners turn
around and run back thirteen yards. One unabashed student suggested
that the bridge be connected to his dorm room.

One of the more intriguing revelations about the Bridge to
Nowhere was recently unearthed by Statesman It seems that a memo
dating back to 1967, sent from the Director of Facilities Planning at
Stony Brook to the Stale University Architect, warned of the
embarassing implications of an incomplete bridge, “The bridge, a
dramatic structure leading nowhere, would stand for several years as a
constant reminder to our students that their convenient use of the
existing campus is a casualty of future needs,” the memo said
Hence the Bridge was on its way to Nowhere ten years ago. The
memo suggested that “every factor argues for delay in building the
bridge.” That suggestion was not heeded. Another memo, this one
addressed to the University President, hinted that the Bridge’s
rendezvous with Nowheresville was the result of errors in the original

�Food Service forfeits
over $23,000 on
broken or stolen goods
Food Service has spent
$23,8000 on the replacement of
glass and flatware due to theft and
breakage, according to Food
Service Director Donald Hosie.
“Only 10—15 percent of the
replacement cost was due to
breakage. The other 85-90
percent w-as due to people taking
the glass and flatware for their
own personal use,” Hosie claimed.
When asked if there were any
ways to prevent people from
taking things, Hosie explained,
“Many ideas have been considered
but none are very efficient. One
idea was offering knives, spoons,
and forks for sale. There are
people who like to keep knives
and forks handy in their rooms,
and if available, some students

were willing to pay for them.

Unfortunately, not many.”
Hosie
explained,
“Twenty
thousand dollars is about .7
percent of our operating budget
for contract service, and it costs
the contract students about $3.00
a year each for replacements; a
little more or less depending on
which meal plan they are on. Still
$23,8000 is a lot of money.”
Hosie explained that $23,000
would have bought each contract
student seven steak dinners. Hosie
stated
that
the
Governors’
weekend
service
was closed
because it was losing $25,000 per
year. He added that the $23,8000
could have helped recuop that
loss. Remember, these are only
examples of how that money
could have been spent if nothing
had been stolen or broken,” Hosie
said, “but it’s very unlikely
nothing is going to be stolen or
broken.”
One Food Service employee
remarked,
“The
amount
of
utensils taken from the cafeteria
ia amazing. We never have enough
of anything anymore."
Many

The reasons for such a U.S. policy towards
Vorster regime are not hard to see. Some 400 U.S.
corporations
operate in South Africa with
investments totally more than two billion dollars.

Special to The Spectrum

,

President Carter pledged recently to support an
international arms embargo against South Africa for
the next six months. And just before that, in a
diplomatic move supposedly designed to show its
displeasure with South Africa, the U.S. recalled its
ambassador from Pretoria. Do these moves imply
that
is ending its military backing for the
Vorster regime? If one would remember that the
U.S. has supplied the very bullets used by Vorster’s
regime against the Azania people, then the utter
hypocrisy of Carter’s stands become obvious.
|, The tottering regime of Vorster faced with a
storm of mass struggles at home has resorted to a
new series of repressive measures designed to halt
even the minimal critism of it. On October 19, the
Black daily newspaper The World was shut down and
its editor was arrested. The white editor of The
Dispatch Was banned from political activity for five
years. Some 19 political organizations were banned
completely including those associated with the Black
Consciousness Movement (whose leader Steven Biko
was murdered in his jail cell by the authorities of the
racist regime). In the first days of this new repression
more than 200 people were arrested and thrown in
prisons, hundreds of others were subjected to house

These investments cover a wide spectrum of South
African economy with primary concentration in the
most important sectors; automanufacturing, metal
mining and extraction and petoleum refining. The
profits on these investments average 20 percent or
about 2.5 times the average return on investments in
the U.S. And it is no wonder that IBM has designed

Kennecott Copper is spending $300 million for new

with South Africa accounts for 45 percent of the

relations between the universities and apartheid by

taking the example of Stanford. Officials at Stanford

Sub Board Board of Directors discuss

Sub Board votes not
to publish salaries
The Sub Board 1 Board of Directors voted last Thursday night not
to include an itemized list of the salaries of ten non-student employees
in the soon to be published Sub Board Budget Summary. An emotional
appeal by Executive Director of the Board, Tom Van Nortwick,
supporting the move not to include the salaries resulted in a 3-0-2 vote
against their being printed. Two

Board members were not present for

the vote.

During the debate, Van Nortwick charged that divulging
non-student salaries would be “damaging” to Sub Board. If published,
he claimed that employees, such as himself, would be “insulted.” He
stated that a possible result would be “employees leaving at 4;30,
rather than staying to help.” He termed the printing of salaries
“unrealistic” and "idealistic,” and added that he saw “no benefits to be
gained by this action.”
Graduate Student Association’s (GSA) representative to the Board,
Michael Sartisky, who porposed the motion to publish salaries, was
unable to attend the meeting, but was outraged at the vote. “It (the
printing of the salaries! was a unanimous decision at the last meeting,”
he charged. He crisply stated that the decision was “typical of the
cavalier attitude of Sub Board,” and vowed to bring up the motion
again “at the next meeting, if not sooner.”

Would not understand
Sartisky called the decision “ihe withholding of what should be
At the meeting. Sub Board Chairman Mitch Zoler
denied that the Board was withholding anything, but refused to define
the Board’s motives in not publishing the salaries. Vice President of
Sub Board, Jeff Lessoff expressed his belief that ‘'students were better
off not knowing the salaries because they would not understand them.
They’re hard to understand,” he claimed. “When I first saw what Van
Nortwick made, I was really mad, but now that I know how much he
does, I see why.”
Views on the purpose of publishing the Budget vary Sub Board
Treasurer Dennis Black stated that the printing was to show the
student how his money was spent on activities. “We want him to see
that, sure he pays one dollar on the movies, but it still costs us another
75 cents to a dollar per person, per movie,” said Black. Sartisky
reaffirmed that it was his and GSA’s intent to show students “exactly
where money goes, including salaries.”
When published, it will mark the first time Sub Board’s budget has
been reported in any publication. Though this is the Budget’s premier
printing, the Budget is a matter of public record, and according to
Black, copies are and will continue to be available in Sub Board's
offices in Talbert Hall on the Amherst Campus. When asked why the
budget has not been published previously, Black answered, “Nobody

Billy Joel concert

by Leah B. Levine
Spectrum

switched to the And
by Joel Mayersohn
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Disgust, annoyance and the concern of being ripped-off by
big time concert promoters ran through the minds of Buffalo’s music
fans last Thursday night and Friday morning, due to a shift in the Billy
Joel concert location from the Century Theatre to Buffalo’s music
dungeon, the “Aud.” Joel, whose best performances have been heard in
small and intimate halls, has disappointed many fans with the move.
However, Billy Joel fans should not give up hope. A spokesman for
Harvey and Corky Productions, Phil Rosen, commented, “We are very
concerned with the treatment of our customers.” Harvey and Corky
are attempting to transform the Aud into a better building for music
by improving sight lines and using special sound devices.
The promoters, in conjunction with Joel’s sound engineers, have
decided to curtain off the Aud behind the stage spanning the Aud’s
width. According to Rosen, this system, known-as a Concert Bowl, will
throw the sound out front, reducing many of the auditory deficiencies
of the building.
Flying speakers
“There will not be a bad seat iq the house,” Rosen commented
The speakers, which are normally on stage will be “flown" above the
floor in a special arrangement. Rosen said This will enable every
spectator a good view of the stage
Students who are concerned with ticket exchange need not worry.
All tickets purchased at the Squire Ticket Office will either be
exchanged or refunded beginning Monday. UUAB spokesman Steve
Pena said, “Although the seat switch will not be exact we are doing our
best to correspond seats. Pena added that “a front row seat in the
Century will be a front row seat in the Aud."
Students won’t have to spend long hours on line to exchange their
tickets. “The exchange will take place up to the day of the concert,"
said Pena. Pena however, was concerned that the late concert date
change from November 30 to the 29 would inconvenience many
students. Pena said “Refunds will be issued this Monday and Tuesday."
UUAB muddle resolved
The controversy concerning the preferential seals given to UUAB
employees has also been resolved by the change in locations “The
special seats, commented Pena, “will be exchanged for balcony seals .”
This hopefully will appease those who spent long hours on line wailing
to get a good

seat.

An advantage ol the change is that more people will gel to witness
the dynamic performance of Joel. “The And has been scaled to ‘&gt;200
people while the Century could only accommodate 2600 fans,”
commented Rosen. Rosen was also quick to point out that what might
have been a balcony seat in the Century might be on the floor of the

John MacKenzie, Supreme Court Reporter for the Washington
Post

Mackenzie speaks on
high court reporting
The United States Supreme Court seems to have a
kind of inlaid
fear of representatives of the press, according to John Mackenzie,
former reporter for the Washington Post , who spoke in O’Brian Hall
Monday. Mackenzie, who covered the high court for three years, said
that the justices are worried about anything that might be printed in a
newspaper because of a fear of misrepresentation
The job of a reporter covering the Supreme Court has become
difficult than during the 19th century, according &lt;o Mackenzie
The number of information leaks coming from the Court, coming
from
law clerks or the justices, has been reduced considerably compared to a
century ago when it was quite easy for information to find its way out,
stated Mackenzie.
more

Mackenzie praised the responsiveness of the Court to the needs of
the press. He described how the press is capable of creating a “certain
air” about a case, therefore having a slight influence on the outcome
“However, with good reporting, the influence of the press on any one
case is difficult to pinpoint,” said Mackenzie
Some background
Mackenzie said that many newspapers

are employing legal council
to advise them on what and what not to print when covering
court
proceedings, in order to avoid misrepresentations.
Before covering any story, a reporter must have some background
on the subject about which he is reporting, Mackenzie explained.
The Supreme Court has been making decisions on a greater
number of cases Mackenzie cited the trend of states to petition more
cases to the Court for its decision, with Pennsylvania and California
leading the charge He stated this has led to the belief that the Court is
spending too much time deciding whether or not to hear a case, rather
than ruling on any case that comes before it
Mackenzie commented on the Consumer Agency Bill now before
the Court, stating that the chances of it passing soon are dwindling. “It
will probably need to be submitted again in a different form," he

claimed.

Everyone, or at least the men in my family,

Sadat Shalom
That President Anwar el-Sadat of Egypt is currently paying a visit
Israeli Prime Minister Menahem Begin, the leader of a country that
has met Egypt in war four times in the last 29 years, has been very well
described in the world press as astounding. The pomp and circumstance
surrounding the event, especially the circumstance(s), are truly
dizzying, from the playing of the Egyptian National Anthem by an
Isareli military band to the flying of miniature Egyptian flags by taxi

and Begin responding, "It's wonderful to have you."
to

The presence of an Arab leader on Israeli soil should not detract
with possible false hope from the reality of Arab-lsraeli relations, at
best antagonistic and at worst openly aggressive. The reaction of Arab
K ing Hasaan of Morocco has endorsed his
leaders to Sadat's visit
move, but all others except the rulers of Omen and the Sudan have
more accurately reflects the nature of those
publicly condemned it
relations than does the visit itself.
-

—

Speculation about a just Middle East peace solution stemming
from this historic visit can be, at best, totally unfounded, since no
agenda for discussion has been released to the press or even mentioned
by either leader, a highly unusual procedure where diplomatic talks are

concerned. Sadat will address the Israeli parliament and wit! speak with
Begin privately and has already made the usual tourist trip of the Old
City of Jerusalem, but just what substance will fill the space of those
talks, and which side will walk away more satisfied, if satisfied at all, is
unknown.
The Palestinians are not the main obstacle to peace, as the New
York Times would have it, but are the people who, as a group, will
continue to suffer the most if a peace settlement is not reached. They
are, in any case, the crucial point around which most Middle East
discussion has been revolving for a long time.
President Carter has mentioned the possibility of establishing a
Palestinian homeland on the occupied West Bank of the Jordan River,
Israel seized during the Six Day V\ar in 1967 and which

land which
Begin considers his by biblical right. Begin has, in fact, refused to
discuss the possibility of that homeland, or the representation of
Palestinians in the peace talks in Geneva, both of which he considers
concessions to the Arabs. These decisions are two, though not the only
two, real obstacles to peace.
The Palestinians, Syrians and Libyans have condemned Sadat's
visit, calling it a betrayal of the Palestinian people, because it implicitly
acknowledges Israel’s existence as a nation, a fact that most Arab
countries have diplomatically refused to recognize. Vet, if the
Palestinian, Syrian and Libyan leaders are sincerely interested in peace
in the Middle East, they must recognize that the psychological
atmosphere of the attempted peace talks and thus the circumstances
that could lead to major concessions on both sides have changed. At
this point, any change in the diplomatic structure of the entire Middle
East situation, even at the risk of fragmenting the unity of the Arab
world (which has never been as stable as the name implies) is welcome.
Sadat's visit to Israel, therefore, should be welcomed but any
predicted outcome of it should be taken with a grain of salt.

As a shopkeeper in the open air market section of Old Cairo said
"If Sadat's trip means a true peace, then it is worth it."

Alright, what do we, the students of this alleged
University, have to be thankful for?
We
should be thankful that somebody
discovered the color yellow, and thus brought forth
school buses, so that we, the students, would not
have to walk between three campuses. Thanks.
We should be thankful to that all-knowing
governmental patriarch, the State of New York, for
not buying the Ridge Lea Campus with less than the
money it shelled out in rent (and thus moving out of
the facility starting this year) so that we, the
students, would no longer have to endure emotional
agony of referring to those warm, comforting
buildings by such cold and impersonal names as
“Fourty-two Fourty,” because it really broke our
hearts to do so. Thanks.
We should be thankful to the very same State of
New York for, as part of its concern for the health
of its students, providing us with wholly inadequate
physical education facilities so that we, the students,
would not have to run the risk of falling victim to
the inconquerable and usually terminal deseases of
athlete’s foot and jock itch. Thanks.
We should be thankful to the garbage men of
New York City who graciously accepted a king’s
ransom each year to pick up refuse and thus drained
that fair City’s financial resources and caused a panic
that nearly led to the pecuniary collapse of the state
that answers to the same name and did in fact, lead
to the halting of construction on our Amherst
Campus, so that we, the students would not have our
scrabble games interrupted by the disconcerting roar
of dump trucks and earth movers that, were it not
for those garbage men, would be building a campus
that was supposed to be finished long ago. So, to
you, humble New York City Sanitation Engineers
Thanks.
We should be thankful for that glacier that
relieved itself in the shallow waters of the Atlantic
Ocean thus creating-Long Island and providing us,
the students, with 90 percent of our ranks, or
seemingly so. Thanks.
We should be thankful for Moses and his partner

upstairs for exactly the same

Jam

reason. Thanks.
We should be thankful for last year’s ID
committee for giving birth to a horse that The
Spectrum could subsequently beat to death so that
we, the students, would have something to read
other than Plato. Thanks.
We should be thankful for the planners of the
Amherst tampus who are building us a 10,000 seat
field house (before a gymnasium that we need only
desperately) so that even more of us, the students,
can attend our Division 111 basketball team’s home
games cleverly disguised as empty seats. Thanks.
We should be thankful for those same planners
who appeared, it seems, at numerous planning
sessions cleverly disguised as empty seats. Thanks.
We should be thankful, now that I think about
it, to the parents of those New York City garbage
men for creating such gracious souls who accepted a
king's ransom and so on . . . Thanks.
We should be thankful for the very same
planners of the Amherst Campus who did not
provide us with any lecture halls so that we, the
students, could be entertained by others of our fate
swinging from the rafters while trying to take notes
thus
in the overcrowded lecture halls that do exist
relieving us from the boredom of listening to
professors who really have no interest in teaching us
anyway, but would just like to see their theories in
the Journal of You Name It, and thus be a success
Thanks.
We should thank Carl Cavage for filing suit
against the University over the Recrod Co-op so that
we, the students, can satisfy our lust for adventure
by gambling huge amounts of not-so-hard earned
money on games of Guess When the Co-op’s Gonna
Be Open and also so that we, the students, could be
provided an easy and effective method losing weight
since we must do so to be able to walk through the
aisles of said Co-op. Thanks.
We should be thankful for our senses of humor,
which allow us, the students, to laugh at the little
inconviences and minor deficiencies of this alleged
University. Thanks.
Incidentally, Happy Thanksgiving from the
Exile.

Protest U.S. —Iranian ties
To the Editor.

The steering committee of the Western New
York Peace Center sent President Carter the
following telegram on November 17.
Dear President Carter
We are particularly offended by your actions on
Tuesday night (Nov. 15) which made a mockery of
the protests of Iranian human rights activists. We
completely reject the assumption that America has
an “unshakeable military alliance” with Iran. We
condemn the gross violations of human rights in Iran
and the imprisonment of thousands of political
prisoners by the Shah’s brutal regime. We protest the

SAVAK, inside and outside of Iran. We also protest
continuing U.S. support for the Shah’s dictatorship.

Stifled

As an expression of our commitment to human

rights everywhere, the Center’s steering committee
also resolved to send letters to Rep. Jack Kemp and
to Soviet Leader Leonid Brezhnev. We will call upon
Rep, Kemp to join his congressional colleagues in
condemning the South African apartheid and the
recent repressive acts that the White-minority
Vorster government has earned out. Our letter to

Recently, The Spectrum has printed a series of
concerned with alleged KMT spying and
covert activities. Indeed, the KMT has resorted to
this. Fver since Nixon’s visit to the People’s Republic
of China in 1971 when he signed the Shanghai
Commmique, and Taiwan’s expulsion from the U N ,
Americans and overseas Chinese in the U.S. have
learned of the tremendous accomplishments of the

Chinese revolution and efforts to build socialism.
They’ve been putting the lie to the KMT’s picture to
“tyranny under Mao” and rendering ludicrous its
claim to represent all the Chinese people both in
Taiwan and on the mainland.
With the ever-approaching possibility of the U.S,
pulling out and the reunification of Taiwan with the

People’s Republic, Taiwanese businessmen and their
KMT ties are both going all out to block

heading for the U.S. or
1-urope for long-range safety.
In an article in the August 8th The Village Voice
entitled “Nationalist Chinese Agents Are Taking
Over Chinatown,” the authors stated, “The KMT is
currently making a desperate play to dominate, as
never before, both the economic and political life of
New York City’s Chinatown. Since the early ’70s,
the Nationalists have poured millions of dollars into
this Lower Fast Side Community. They have set up
KMT banks, sponsored KMT newspapers, supplied
capital to KMT import-export companies. They have
organized KMT political goon-squads to disrupt any
activity deemed “leftist” and opposed to their
interests.” This, a whole new situation in
Chinatowns and on college campuses has developed
The intimidation tactics of the KMT of the last few
years must be seen in this light

Taiwan, and the Ghost Shadows (the top youth gang
in New York’s Chinatown).
The New York Chinatown gangs have been
terrorizing merchants by trying to get them to pay
for protection by a certain security agency.
C onsequently, there have been many shootings and
beatings due to people fighting against this. The
agency has been using the gangs (the very people
they’re supposed to be protecting against) to extort
large amounts of money and power from these
people. In one instance, the Ghost Shadows gang
even robbed a store on two consecutive Sundays to
get the owner to sign. The first shop to display the
slicker claiming protection is well known for being
the gangs hideout and it is also half owned by the

The KMT is directly involved in this. It was the
consul general of Taiwan, Konsm Shah, who
suggested this operation of “protection.” And the

The KMT used to only have agents working in
the U.S., but now are taking matters into their own
hands. They’ve organized their own goon-squad to
do their dirty work. The same article in The Village
Voice reported, “The Ju-Kwang, a Chinatown

police, was founded at a party at the Peking Park

fraternal group, the Ju-Kwang consists of about 20

tongs often threatened the youth gangs with
Ju-Kwang intervention to settle disputes) whose first

“leftist” activity. While attempting this task, during

Columbia University last summer eight
Ju-K wangs were arrested by New York cops for
fighting with students. The Ju-Kwangs were released
in the custody of KMT Deputy Consul-General
Chang Shih-Cheng.” There have been many other
instances of spying reported at other universities
such as Cornell, MIT, Berkeley, University of Florida
and the University of Minnesota.
What is the history of this situation and why is
the KMT so desperate?
The situation of the KMT in Taiwan came from
the civil war in China after the Japanese invasion was
defeated in the 1940s. As Mao Tse-tung’s Red Army
consolidated its victory in Northern China, Chiang
Kai-shek’s KMT forces fled the mainland to the
island province of Taiwan (Taiwan has been a
province of China since the 1800s.) As tension in
Korea mounted in 1950 the U.S intervened in the
Chinese civil war, backing the Chiang regime to
isolate the People’s Republic, and make Taiwan, in
General MacArthur’s words, America’s “unsmkable
aircraft carrier” in the Pacific.
Despite a U.S.-imposed economic blockade, the
People’s Republic of China has developed itself, and
the KMT’s only claim to life has come from its U.S.
backing. The vast majority of nations now recognize
the People’s Republic as the sole legitimate
government, and only the U.S., Israel, South Africa,
and a handful of South American and other
countires back Taiwan (the Republic of China).
When Nixon visited China in 1972 he signed the
Shanghai Communique. This document recognized
that “all Chinese on either side of the Taiwan Strait
maintain that there is but one China and that Taiwan
is part of China. The United States government does
not challenge that position,” and affirmed the
“ultimate objective of the withdrawal of all U.S
forces and military installations from Taiwan.” But
instead of implementing the spirit of this agreement,
the U.S. has actually expanded activities with
Taiwan
The U S. keeps the Taiwan government going in
many ways. It has troops stationed there, sells arms
and war ships cheap to them, trades substantially,
and American businesses have numerous investments
there And since the Shanghai Communique, the
investments and trade have grown, and five new
consulates in Atlanta, Portland, Kansas City, Guam,
and American Samoa have opened up Taiwan has
more consulates in the U.S than any other foreign

Defense Treaty, and Recognition of the People's
Republic of China as China’s sole legitimate

What would U.S. withdrawal from Taiwan (and
most likely normalization of relations between the
U.S and China) mean? One important result will be
a further relaxation of tension in Asia, reducing the
danger of
military conflict
international
and
contributing to a world situation in which any one
country cannot dominate others or maintain spheres
of influence
There are also many economic,
cultural, and educational benefits for the American
and Chinese people The Americans would benefit
by increased commerce, increased cultural exchanges
and more American visits to the People’s Republic.
The Chinese would gain opportunities to share U.S.
technological expertise, expanded foreign exchange
earnings, and increased visits to the U.S
Because of all the beneficial things, specifically
for the American and Chinese people, but also for
the people of the world, the U.S. China Peoples
Friendship Association is working towards the
reunification of Taiwan with the People’s Republic
and the normalization of relations between the U.S
and China. And therefore, we denounce the recent
activities of the KMT here in the U.S., and support
those who fight against them.

Shevlin.
Oswego was provided with another opportunity to score when the
officials awarded the Lakers a penalty shot after a Buffalo player used
his hands to cover up the puck in the crease. Ray Seeback’s attempt
was smothered by the Bulls’ goalie Bill Kaminska. “I wanted to make
the shooter make the first move,” said the young netminder, who
turned away 41 Oswego shots.
Oswego scored another power play goal just 15 seconds after the
penalty shot was taken. Again, it was Graf who provided Oswego with
the one goal advantage. And again, the Bulls retaliated, with not one,
but three goals, in less than five minutes. The quick-skating line of
Chns Bonn, Anzalone, and Bnen Grow was involved in all three goals.
Grow stored two goals within 21 seconds to give Buffalo a 3 —2 lead
after 12:47. Then Bonn scored at 17 16 and the period ended with the
Bulls out in front 4-2.

Lakers come back
The Great Lakers wasted little time in coming back as they scored
the first goal of the second period at the 2:52 mark. Greg Wittman
took a pass from Kevin Hlynn and beat Kaminska with a quick wrist
shot to the goalie’s gloveside to cut the margin to 4 -3.
Both teams kept on plugging away but could not score as
Kaminska and Shevlm both made some excellent saves. Then, at 8:34,
Buffalo’s Tom Wilde picked up a loose puck at center ice. Wilde then
skated past the two Oswego defensemen and sent a high backhand-shot
into the upper left comer of the net. At that point, the Bulls led 5 3.
The Buffalo forwards kept on forechecking and the defense kept
the puck in the Oswego end of the rink; their combined efforts resulted
Buffalo score. Danny Gemmer’s shot was blocked by
in another
Shevlm who could not maintain control of the puck. Bonn picked up
the rebound and sent a quick shot into the Oswego goal. The Lakers
came right back down the ice and sent three shots at Kaminska who
managed to stop the attempts.
Oswego played the last 3 57 of the period with a one-man
advantage as Grow was given a two-minute penalty for tripping and
then another two-minute penalty for delay of game when he contested
the call Bui the Bulls’ penalty killers did an outstanding job as the
Lakers got only four shots at the net and Kaminska stopped them all.
“It was a team effort,” said Anzalone. “The defense played well, they
cleared away the rebounds and blocked quite a few shots,” added
—

The Bulls pressured Shevlin with 18 shots in the period, but he
came up with big saves on Bonn, Anzalone, and Keith Sawyer to keep
Buffalo from scoring. The Bulls found themselves with a two-man
disadvantage after penalties to Ed Patterson and Mike Caruana. The
Lakers responded with a flurry of shots, and Bob Olsen’s blast went
over the right shoulder of Kaminska to put Oswego only one point
behind the Bulls.
Buffalo had difficulty moving the puck out of their own end and
the hardworking Oswego team capitalized by tying the score at IS: 54.
Graf passed the puck out to John Silver who sent a heavy blast into the
Buffalo net setting the stage for AnzaloneV overtime goal
With Silver in the penalty box serving a too-many-men-on-the-ice
penalty, Buffalo’s power play went to work. Carl Koeppel sent a rink
wide pass to fellow defenseman Rick MacLean. MacLean passed to
Anzalone who took the quick low shot that beat Shevlin and Oswego
at 4:57 of overtime. If was MacLean’s third assist of the game

First star Anzalone
“The goal was scored on a broken play,” explained Anzalone.
was covered so I decided to take the slap shot and it went
in. Everything worked. The feeling after scoring the goal is just
unbelievable.” Anzalone was given the game’s first star award. ‘Tin just
happy that the team won, it was a real team effort The fans were
great, they kept us going,” he added.
Assistant coach Ben Madonia agreed, “We had 10) percent team
effort tonight 1 used 19 players and they all gave me a great effort
Mead coach Id Wright had to mtss the game and Madonia took over the
job of directing the team in his absence.
Madonia felt that the team played well except for a few mental
lapses in the third period
“These lapses accounted for their
(Oswego’s) goals,” he noted. “If we had converted some chances, we
could have had eight or nine goals.”
According to rookie goalie Kaminska, the game’s second star, “It’s
really great to get that first win under our belts
He noted that the
defense of MacLean, Koeppel, Caruana, Gemmer and freshman Jeff
I ddy was a big factor in helping him register his first victory as a
collegian “The defense played really well, they took a lot of pressure
off me,” he said.

glorious high school days as a
State record holder.

I even had the first lines of my
expose about losing mentally
written and edited in my head.
Yet, I knew that the female
competition would be less than
stiff and that I might have a
chance. Looking at my two gold
medals late that night, visions of
turkeys danced in my head.

The cross country squad wrapped up its season with a pair of tenth
place finishes in the New York State and 1.C.4A. Championship races.
The Bulls were left with a meet record of 6—10, but the future holds
promise for the young team.
On Saturday, November 5, the Bulls competed in the New York
State Championships ai the University of Rochester’s 5.13-mile course
at the Genesee Valley Park. John Ryerson led the charges with the
22nd place, 27:10 performance. Mike Fischer was 45th in 27:43 and
he was followed by Tim Sheehan (60th) in 28:01, Gene Schwall (69th)
in 28:21 and Tony Markut (70th) in 28:22 to round out the scoring.
Greg Freitag (83rd) in 28:45 and Tom Pitchford (99th) in 29:53 were
the sixth and seventh men, respectively.
The scoring left the Bulls with 266 points, only six points behind
ninth place. The tenth place performance is noteworthy, since the Bulls
were predicted to finish 13th. The harriers were also running without
the services of Brian Goldberg and Barney Schinter, usually the second
and fourth men.

The Bulls traveled to Van Cortlandt Park in New York City for the
69th Annual I.C.A.A A.A. Cross Country Championships on Monday,
November 14. The Bulls scored 282 points and managed to outrun
LeMoyne (11th) and St. Bonaventure (14th) teams which had
defeated the Bulls in dual meets earlier this season.
It was a fitting finish to a cross country season for Ryerson as he
finished 20th in 26:45 for the five-mile race. John was plagued by an
injury this summer which hampered his training and he really came on
strong towards the end of the season. The rest of the Bulls scoring
came from Schwall (54th; 27:38), Tony Markut (62nd; 27:50),
Sheehan (70th; 28:06), and Freitag (75th; 28:17). Goldberg was 97th
in 28:52 and ace Fischer fell and was unable to finish.
Gantz satisfied
In retrospect, it appears that the Bulls did not have a very
successful season, but coach Waller Gant/, was pleased with his team’s
performance. “Given the injuries and illnesses and the fact that most of
the squad were freshmen, I am satisfied,” he said. “We had a losing
record, though, and 1 can never be fully satisfied with that
Gant/,
noted that the Bulls will be losing only one runner (John Ryerson) and
thus should be a better team next year. “All our runners improved on
their times throughout the courses of the season, and that shows
growth,” he commented. “We grew as runners, and that will be
reflected in next year’s performances.”
Although! cross country season is over now, the Buffalo harriers
are looking forward to the indoor and outdoor track seasons. The team
is hoping to repeat their Big Four Championship of a year ago. If there
is anyone interested in competing in either track or field, please
contact coach Gantz at 636-2141, or attend the meeting soon to be
announced.

“Hospitals are within a five or

Mann.

&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;

Seven city polipemen
tied to Long coverup

Seven Buffalo police officers, who have testified before the special
grand jury looking into the June 2Sth murder of Richard Long, have
been linked to the alleged coverup that occurred the night of the
murder, sources have indicated.
The seven officers, Joseph Riga, Robert Grisanti, Leonard Socha,

Peter Brunetto, Charles Williams, Robert Chella and Lawrence Pierce,
have all been previously identified as those whose testimony before the
grand jury the city had sought to have released to the Police
Department for departmental hearings.
On Wednesday, the Courier-Express reported that the seven
officers suspected of being involved in the alleged coverup all worked
out of Precinct 5 or Precinct 6. Calls to each precinct by The Spectrum
revealed that each officer previously named in connection with the
grand jury testimony, was also assigned to Precinct 5 or Precinct 6.
Police request testimony
The Spectrum has learned that the testimony is being sought by
the office of the Corporation Counsel to determine if the officers were
actually involved in the alleged coverup of the Long murder.
Assistant Corporation Counsel, Margaret Anderson, confirmed that
the testimony was being sought to determine “if a coverup occurred
and if so, who was involved.” She added that the Police
Commissioner’s Office had requested her to obtain the testimony to
aid in the police departmental investigation of certain officers’ actions
the night of the murder. The fate of the testimony has not yet been
determined. Anderson is awaiting word on the DA’s appeal of Justice
Norman Stiller’s decision to have the minutes of the grand jury
released.

The Erie County District Attorney’s Office has continued to
follow D.A. Edward Cosgrove’s policy of refusing to comment on any
facet of the case.

Unauthorized duties

The alleged coverup involves certain violations of police procedure
by the officers. It has been reported that on duty officers left their
posts to perform unauthorized duties. The Courier-Express had
reported that police lieutenants had testified before the grand jury in
connection with the actions of officers under their command.
The alleged coverup deals with actions that occurred the night of
the murder. The Buffalo Homicide Squad, which took over the
investigation the day after the crime, is not involved in the possible
coverup.

One of the seven officers, Robert Grisanti, has been indicted on

perjury charges stemming from his July appearance before the grand
jury. Officers Gary Atti and Phillip Gramaglia have been indicted on
manslaughter charges directly related to the beating death. Another
officer, Samuel Fusco, has not been indicted but his car has been
placed at the scene of the crime by some witnesses. All four policemen

Illegal health fee?

Gathering support for boycott
boycott,”

by Brad Bermudez
Staff Writer

Spectrum

A
campus-wide
effort by the Student
Association of the State University (SASU) to
boycott the SI 7 student mandatory health fee will
be implemented in the coming weeks.
SASU will be distributing literature and posters,
urging students to boycott the fee next semester,
according to Buffalo SASU delegate Allen Clifford.
An open meeting on the issue will be held on
Monday in Haas Lounge for all students.
SASU has claimed the fee is illegal because
monies collected will not be used for improving
health services, but will be placed in a general fund,
according to Clifford.
Clifford claimed that Director of Health
Services, M. Luther Musselman, “has admitted that
money from the health fee will be placed in the
general fund of unallocated monies and will not be
used to improve health services.” The SUNY Board
of Trustees has requested the repeal of the fee and
its fate now lies in the hands of the New York State

Legislature.
A committee has been formed to investigate the
possible consequences of a boycott, according to
Clifford. “We don’t want to tell the students not to
pay until they have all the information necessary to

make a decision,” he stated.
Statewide ban

A meeting of SASU officials from most of the
SUNY schools took place at Geneseo State College
on November 4th and Sth. SASU delegates met with
members of the Midwest Organizing Academy to
discuss strategies for organizing and plans for the
boycott. Five colleges
Geneseo, Brockport, New
Paltz, Oswego, and SUNY at Buffalo will attempt
a boycott. Geneseo and Brockport, the two schools
that have been instrumental in organizing the
boycott, will distribute pledge cards to both students
and parents. ‘The cards will show how much student
support we have and will give added impetus to the

stated Rick Krenzer, a Genesco SA
Official.
‘There is a lot of student support at
Brockport,” said Bill Waxman, the school’s SASU
delegate. “People are enthusiastic. They’re actually

he
’’

added.

Other schools, including New Paltz, Oneonta,
Binghamton,
Potsdam,
and
have
initiated
letter-writing campaigns, directed at the State
Legislators and Governor Carey. However, the SASU
delegates of Oneonta, Binghamton and Potsdam are
hesitant to implement a boycott. Rick Stember,
SASU co-ordinator from Oneonta stated, ‘*We have
formed an advisory board to investigate the
consequences of a boycott. We just don’t have
enough information.”

Majority Leader ■ key
Chairman of the Health Services Committee at
Binghamton, William Barsky, holds the same view.
‘The cost of staging an unsuccessful boycott would
be more than if we channeled our efforts to a more
useful campaign,” he said. Binghamton has
implemented a letter-writing campaign directed at
Carey to repeal the health fee and SASU delegates
plan to lobby at the State Legislature in Albany.
Binghamton’s prime target in lobbying will be Senate
Majority Leader Warren Anderson, according to
Barsky. “Anderson is the most important man in
New York politics behind Carey. If we can win
Anderson, there’s a good chance we can beat the
fee,” Barsky said.
Persuading Anderson may be a difficult task,
however. Barsky added that in previous encounters,
Anderson termed SASU premature in coming 10
him, since matters such as this go to the Governor
first. “Anderson also stated that he would rather
remain impartial to the entire affair,” Barsky said.
SASU’s main goal at this point is to provide
information to all SUNY students and gather their
support.

The 1978 edition of this University’s yearbook The Buffalonian
will focus on the history of this University, specifically “the riots in the
late 60’s and the coming of Amherst,” Editor-m-Chief Libby Post said.
“We’re doing a historical perspective of how UB has changed.”
The 1978 Buffalonian will have the standard senior pictures, Post
claimed, but it is also going to be a fun book. “We’re going to have a
centerfold, like a Penthouse magazine, of a Bluebird Bus,” she
illustrated.

In addition to the changing concept of the book, the physical
appearance will also be altered, Post explained. Instead of being bound
on the I 2 inch vertical side as in past yearbooks, the binding will be on
the 9 inch horizontal side, she said.
Today is the last day for Seniors to get their pictures taken for the
yearbook. Post added that many University clubs are not taking The
Buffalonian seriously this year. “They are not bothering to get their
pictures taken because of the poor performance of the yearbook in the
past. But all that is going to change this year,” she enthused.
Post, a sophomore, has been working on the book since August
and said, “We have some reliable people on our staff this year and it
looks like we’ll be coming out with a truely great yearbook.”
Yearbook officials expect to sell over 1000 copies this year
compared to approximately 300 last year. “We’ve sold 150 books
already, one Buffalonian worker stated. The publication will be made
available to students in late April or early May.

�Layoff procedure improper
Hosie explained that layoffs occur when hiring
in excess of the labor budget. He said that there
was over-hiring that varied from two to five percent
by unit, and that if cutbacks had not been made,
Food Service stood to lose a minimum of two
percent of its $3,200,000 labor budget. When
students are hired, said Hosie, they are given a two
page brochure called General Information and Policy
Requirement
for Student Employees. “This
brochure states that some positions may have to be
eliminated,” said Hosie.
Hosie stated that Food Service had an unwritten
policy of giving a one week notice to all employees
that are laid off and that all of the Food Service
units, except for Squire Hall, adhered to this policy.
He added that in the future, he will publish a written
procedure that will recommend a one week notice.
Lalonde, who had worked in the student club
for three years, said that people’s hours were
regularly cut without prior notification. He said that

Director of Food Service Donald Hosie has
admitted that the Squire Hall unit of Food Service
acted improperly in laying off employees without
prior notice.
A letter sent to Hosie by Student Association
(SA) Executive Vice-President Andrew Lalonde
stated, “This type of approach by Food Service to
their employees is completely unjustifiable and
deserves an immediate response.”
Hosie

countered

is

by stating that

this claim

Lalonde is “not being fair” because only “one unit
out of the fourteen Food Service units acted
'

improperly.”

Stewart Cutler, a former student employee,
related that he “walked in on a Monday, the
supervisor came up and explained that he was being
laid off and that he would not have a job after that
day.”

Overhiring

employees were not technically laid off, but that
they were given no hours to work.
Hosie said that there will be no more layoffs in
the month of November and that if Food Service
sales equal their historically based projections, there
will be none in the month of December. Hosie said,
“If we do not meet the budget, layoffs will occur.”

Lalonde, in his letter, pointed to a “complete
lack of courtesy and respect” shown by Food
Service to the individuals who were laid off. Lalonde
claimed he was told that employees showed up for
work on time “only to be told to go home, that they
were no longer employed, and that they could pick
up their check sometime in the near future.”

NYPIRG seeks ban
on non-retumahles
by Thomas Rosamiia
Spectrum Staff Writer
The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) is
circulating a petition through the dormitories here at Buffalo in an
effort to ban non-returnable bottles from this campus. NYPIRG
Student Project Co-ordinator Larry Schillinger said that a goal of 2500
signatures has been set and estimates that 1800 signatures have already
been collected. A group of seven students is currently working on this
project and they have found encouraging response from dorm
residents, according to Schillinger.
These petitions will be presented by NYP1RG to the
Inter-Residence Council (IRC) in an effort to obtain their endorsement
of the non-returnable bottle ban. NYPIRG hopes that a declaration
non-retumables will be made this December by IRCB (IRC
Business). Schillinger advised that these petitions constitute sufficient
student support to warrant an IRCB endorsement.

Voice of the people

Imperialism in Arab world
by Jim Safee
Spectrum Staff Writer
“Imperialism and Peoples’ Struggles in the
Middle East” was the topic of a discussion by Fawuz
Turki, at a lecture on Tuesday night in Wendy Hall.
Turki, an authority on peoples problems in the
Middle East, was the first speaker in a series of three
lectures on Third World problems sponsored by The
Third World Student Association.
Turki spoke of imperialism as a “living and
breathing reality in the Arab world.” Said Turki: “If
you recall from the 1940’s when the British allowed
India her independence, up to the 1960’s when the
U.S. was desperately trying to hold on to Vietnam,
you can clearly see the colonial, imperialistic, racist
attitude that has come down from the West and is
still very much alive today.”
Turki attributed the current class struggle in the
Middle East to “the devistation of a divided Arab

Turki stated, “Before the British left the Arab world

they created the state of Jordan and grafted on to it
a Saudi Arabian King.” He claimed the Arab world is
nothing more than a conglomeration of artificial
states.

These overlords created artificial borders and set up

Turki grew up in Beruit and has written a
number of poems illustrating the grief of the
Palestinian people living under occupation. “When I
grew up in the streets of Beruit 1 didn’t have to read
about the class struggle. It was staring me in the
face,” Turki said. He has also written a book entitled
The Disinhereted which speaks of Palestinians as
homeless people.
In reference to the ruling families in the Arab
world, Turki said, “They are nothing more than
indigeonous overlords underwritten by western
imperialism.” He believes American imperialism,
over the last ten years, has gained a strong foothold
in the Palestinian world. “Israel, Jordan, Iran, Syria,
Egypt and Saudi Arabia act as agents for American
imperialism,” said Turki. “These countries are to
protect the status quo and to guard against the
emergence of a progressive Arab state.”

The goal of the Palestinian revolution is a united

“Arthur Eve lost the election for
because the people of
Buffalo voted out of fear,” according to fillicott District Councilman
George K. Arthur (D-L), one of Buffalo’s most powerful and
well-respected black politicians. Arthur elaborated on State Senator
James Griffin’s stunning triumph in the Mayoral election and its
prospective effect on the political future of Buffalo.
There has been speculation that Griffin owes his victory
specifically to widespread fear of electing a black mayor on the part of
Buffalo’s white majority population.
Arthur felt the voter rejection of State Assemblyman Arthur O,
Eve was not necessarily an anti-black vote. Rather, he felt, it was a vote
based upon erroneous fears. He stated,, ‘The Larry Campbell issue
(Griffin raised the question of Eve’s involvement in the release of
Campbell from prison, who allegedly nulrdered two Buffalo State
students) and Art’s (Eve) involvement witli Attica caused many people
who would have voted for E-ve, to change tjheir minds.”

The Crangle angle
Many political observers felt that one of Griffin’s biggest
advantages during the campaign was the fact that he was perceived to
be more independent from Erie County Democratic Chairman Joe
Crangle than was Eve. This was, in a sense, ironic because Eve had been
a longtime foe of Crangle’s and stressed his independence during the
Primary election. Councilman Arthur did not agree with the notion
that Eve lost because Eve became too closely aligned with Crangle after
he won the Democratic nomination “Eve’s record on bossism is clear,”
Arthur asserted. “He has been totally independent from Crangle
throughout his whole political career. I do not believe that Crangle was

factor in the election
It has been said that Griffin won the election
because he
successfully divided the city along racial lilies. Arthur now hopes that
Griffin will “bring as many diverse people into City Hall as possible.”
He stressed that, “Buffalo right now is a fragmented city, and if we are
to move forward, the city must be united.” In spite of Griffin’s
previous campaign rhetoric, Arthur is looking for the new
Mayor to
unite the different ethnic groups of the city. He predicted that, “The
only way Griffin will be a successful mayor is if he unites the city.
Griffin Ls no dummy; he knows what must be done.”

a

Griffin’s election may afford Crangle a difficult time gaining
re-election to his post as county chairman next year. Griffin made it
widely known that if he was elected mayor, he would try to topple
Crangle from his throne. This is why Crangle first supported
Corporation Counsel Leslie G, Foschio, then, Eve, to win the mayoral
race. Arthur did not believe that Griffin’s election raised a death-knell
to Crangle’s political career. He predicted that “Joe Crangle will remain
as county chairman.’ To support his claim, the Councilman pointed to
the tact that a high percentage of the County’s committeemen (who
elect the county chairman) will be from outside the city and beyond
Griffin s control, f onsequently, it will be difficult for anyone to defeat
Crangle.

The mayor elect’s proposal

Eve for Congress?
Eve has previously stated that he did not want to spend the rest of
his political career in the State Assembly. But, since the mayoral
election, it appears that he may have to do so. Unless he is appointed
to a higher position, the only way Eve could move up would be to run
for Congress. Since Councilman Arthur is one of Eve’s closest political
associates in Buffalo, he would learn of Eve’s future plans as quickly as
anyone else. He stated that "It is too early to tell what Art (Eve) is
going to do. He could run for Congress or maybe even mayor again, but
no matter what he does, he has a great future.”
Buffalo’s biggest problem is economic depression. The exodus of
industry and people from the area has shaken the confidence of many
Buffalonians
for no one wants to be the last rat on a sinking ship
Arthur felt that it will be difficult for Griffin to turn the situation
around

how can a newspaper that has heavily supported the Record
Co-op in its fight against the lawsuit filed by Carl Cavage and
against subsequent restrictions imposed by the Ketter
administration run a two page Cavage's ad for records on

sale?
The answer is not so simple; yes, as anyone vaguely
familiar with newspapers could guess, it involves money
That ad does not need rationalizing, but it does deserve an
explanation, as has been demanded by so many students
As with all business, a "middleman” is involved. The

"middleman'' in this case is the National Educational
Advertising Service (NEAS),. The major portion of the
it placed the
advertisement was paid for by CBS Records
ad in many college newspapers around the country, using
NBAS as its agent. NBAS in turn, sold local “tie-ins" to
various record stores in the areas of the papers the
advertisement appeared in. NBAS distributes many ads, the
full page Miller Beer ads, for example, and of course makes
money doing it. Such is the nature of its business.
If The Spectrum were to say, please don't send any more
ads that involve records and Cavages because editorial policy
is dead set against the owner and his attempted and
somewhat successful distruction of the Record Co op, NBAS

might just respond, how about we don't send you any ads

�FEEDBACK
There seems to be a big controversy about how late in the
students at this University should be able to resign from a
course without academic penalty The Faculty Senate wants the
deadline to be early in the semester, while the Student Association
wants to push the date back so that students have more time to
decide.
This is a sticky question, so I decided to quiz an expert on the
subject. I contacted my friend, I liner Smedlofl, a physicist at a
Midwestern university. His specialty is faculty/administralion
adhesion, and he’s now embroiled in the "R" controversy at his
own school.
“Flmer, why do you think it's a bad idea to let students resign
from courses whenever they want to?”
"If we let students have their way. they'd all be getting A's!”
Smedloff laughed. “Without an early deadline, students would wait
until the end of the semester and then drop all the courses they
were going to get less than an A in. Grade inflation would
skyrocket! Can you imagine what that would do to the price of a
loaf of bread?”
“Are you saying that if everybody had A’s, then those grades
would be worthless?”
“Yes, that’s right.” he replied. “Prospective employers and
graduate school admissions offices wouldn’t even care about them.”
“But wouldn’t each A grade still stand for excellent work 1
After all, even though students resigned from certain courses to
avoid getting B’s and C’s, the A’s they did earn would still require A
work.”
“You don’t understand! Stop trying to be logical about this!”
the physicist shot back. “If students could control what went on
their transcripts, where do you think we’d be? What kind of a
university would we have?”
“I don’t understand.”
Elmer Smedloff paused thoughtfully, and then continued.
“Simpson, it’s no wonder you didn’t make it as a scientist. You
philosophers can’t see the obvious! Look around you, boy! What do
you see? Students hurriedly running from class to class, burying
their heads in books, frantically studying difficult subjects even if
they aren’t especially relevant or interesting . . . What do you think
makes all that happen!”
“A desire to learn more about one’s self and the universe, I
suppose 1 ’
“Wrong, Simpson' Wrong! They do it because they’re scared to
death! And it’s the university’s job to keep them hopping by
keeping them afnad Afraid of those B’s and C’s. Afraid of not
making the grade. Afraid of failing and spending the rest of their
lives sweeping floors or serving up hamburgers at McDonalds.”
My friend’s apparent endorsement of this reign of terror upset
me. I informed him that “students are human beings.”
Smedloff blurted back; “Not if I can help it!” Calming slightly,
he continued. “Son, we have a business to operate here, and we
can’t let people get in the way. On with the show! Keep those
conveyor bells rolling!”
“Elmer,” I said, “don’t you see what you’ve done to the
process of education 9 The system you favor Is turning students into
grade-hunting monsters. They don’t care about expanding
themselves or learning about the world They only care about
grades. It’s a damn shame.”
Shaking his head sadly. Dr. Smedloff told me, “You’re looking
at it the wrong way. There’s nothing wrong with seeking grades
instead of truth and knowledge. That’s how society runs, and it’s
our job at the university to prepare students for society. Right?”

appealing
the
Administration
to
reconsider
and
seriously
(hopefully) reinstate an English requirement. I
implore concerned undergraduates, graduates and
faculty members to join together in an effort to
alleviate a serious crisis in undergraduate courses
My motives for seeking the reinstatement of the
English requirement are, at one and the same time,
both selfish and altruistic. As a teaching assistant
with the responsibility of instructing undergraduates
I frequently assign papers and administer essay
examinations as a primary means of evaluating my
students. Although I have only taught three courses I
have accumulated sufficient evidence which confirms
(in my own mind at least) the fears of many who
claim that today’s undergraduates are desperately in
need of instruction in their own language. A great
many students are unable to devise an adequate
essay, irrespective of the subject under discussion.
Paragraphs and sentences are haphazardly set forth,
often without adequate
transitions among the
thoughts expressed. General organization around
and minor themes is, in many cases,
major
completely lacking. Spelling errors, although they
can be frequently overlooked due to typing mistakes
or failure to have a dictionary on hand, can render a
paper almost totally unintelligible if they are present
in abundance. Such grammatical and structural
mistakes clearly make my task as an instructor that
much more difficult since I must also assume the
role of an English teacher. But what should be of
much more importance to the student is the
recognition that his inability to write in a coherent
and intelligible manner presents a serious obstacle to
his comprehension and utilization of class material.
There are many students who would agree that
good writing skills are necessary but would claim
that these skills are only important if one is entering
It

is

field requiring a proficiency in them (eg the
humanities or the social sciences) Why should a
person majoring in the natural sciences be concerned
about sharpening his ability to express himself in
writing 7 I will readily concede that each seperate
area (i.e. biology, chemistry, physics, etc.) tends to
have its own peculiar vocabulary and accepted
procedures for organizing its technical material. To
my knowledge, however, none of these disciplines
has claimed to reject the accepted rules for writing
the Fnglish language in its customary form.
A general understanding of basic grammar and
composition (both of which could be taught in one
or two semesters of freshman Fnglish) would provide
the student with the means by which he could
organize his thoughts, develop them in a coherent
and cogent fashion, and possibly obtain a great deal
more from the courses he enrolls in. In many ways
an ability to write can make all the difference
research becomes much simpler, time spent on
composing papers will often decrease, new insights
into stylistic changes may be discovered, notes taken
in class start making a bit more sense, and both
learning and enjoyment in one’s courses may
increase because there is a little less effort spent
obtaining the same amount of material
I am much impressed and encouraged by the
“Writing Place” and its efforts to assist students in
their plight. 1 fear, however, that this alone is not
enough. There are far too many students who do not
yet recognize the great need they have for such a
facility I wish I could say that simply reinstating the
English requirement would solve these problems but
that would be expecting too much. A large portion
of the responsibility must be placed squarely upon
each individual student to take the initiative in the
fight to overcome his difficulties when expressing
himself in writing Nevertheless, mandatory Fnglish
courses (in both grammar and composition) would
certainly go a long way toward alleviating an ever
worsening crisis in the classroom

To the Editor
This is in response to a letter in the November
14th issue of The Spectrum by Mr Shabat Moshe
I would like to comment on two points made by
Mr Shabad Moshe First of all, Mr Moshe is to be
commended on his realization that the Palestinians
are indeed humans and as such they have an
inalienable right to their homeland Mr Moshe, all
that you have to do now is to convince Menahem
Begin, the illustrious Prime Minister and the virtuous
Israeli Parliament!
Secondly, Mr Moshe, your denumcation of the

However, there is a slight oversight on your part,
which must be unintentional
As you probably
know, last week Israeli jets crossed the Lebanese
border and bombed a Palestinian settlement killing
more than 100 people in what the Israelis call
“retaliatory raids This was the retribution paid to
the Palestinians in response to a few rockets fired
across the border. Note that the recepients of this
retribution were not Palestinian buerrillas but

1 agreed reluctantly.
“When students graduate, they must go out into the real
world,” Smedloff went on. “People out there are running scared.
And with good reason. It’s dog-eat-dog. There’s cut-throat
competition. In order to succeed in that world our students have to
narrow their sights and concentrate on those A s
the paychecks,
the advancements, the bonuses, and the extra vacation days. It’s out
job to prepare them for that difficult task ahead.”
“So it’s not important
the university to provide an
education for students?”
Elmer Smedloff seemed to ponder my question He finally
replied “Yes, it’s important that the university provide an
education, but not the way you think. Society does not reward
people because they live by ideals or seek truth and knowledge
Even great scientists like myself have to go for the A's, the research
grants, even if that means working for the military.”
But
“Some of my colleagues are working on the neutron bomb.
Ghastly work, but that's where the money is these days And that’s
what university education is all about We tram people to shut up
and mind their own business, play the game, and get those A’s!
That way they can make it in society. Now do you understand 9
I shook my head in disbelief.
My friend Elmei Smedloff, mad scientist, evil genius, and
academic hard-guy, completed his thought. “To keep society going,
we have to keep grades valuable. That’s why we have to restrict the
ability of students to resign from courses A liberal policy would
make good grades too easy. The whole damned thing would fall

So students must learn to adapt 9

�Pfeifer: 'Are You Now or Have You Ever Been
by Sandy Miller
Spectrum Arts

Staff

And now for the $64,000 question: Are you now or have you ever
been a member of the Communist Party? This was the querie posed to
many witnesses who went before the House Un American Activities
Committee (HUAC) in the 1940's and 1950's. Eric Bentley's play , Are
You Now or Have You Ever Been endeavours to recapture the essence
of the infamous HUAC investigation into the movie industry during
that period.
To refresh the memories of those who would ask: "What in hell
would the House Un-American Acitivities Committee (now, by the
way, extinct

it developed a bad public image) be investigating the
movie industry for?" The answer is, they were attempting to determine
the extent of Communist influence and infiltration into the film
business.
—

Startling and dramatic testimony
To a large degree the play is a success. Bentley who also directed
the work was selected from the HUAC Hearings of those years some of
the most startling, absorbing, and dramatic testimony given before the
Committee, and edited that testimony to form the core of the play.
Still photos of the actors, directors, and screenwriters, who originally
went before the HUAC, are projected onto a screen when actors
portraying these individuals are testifying. To provide a frame of
reference, other relevant pieces of information are read to the audience
(with proper impartiality by Valerie Harris and Joanne Loomer).
Juxtaposed, these three media combine and compliment each other
well.
Are You Now or Have You Ever Been succeeds quite nicely in
capturing the hypocrisy of the hearings. A great many careers were
ruined by them
merely to have been summoned before the HUAC
was enough, in some cases, to result in the blacklisting of the witnesses.
Yet, at one point, the Chairman of the HUAC (played by Marc J.
Donahue) announced, "No one on this Committee has any desire to
smear anyone's name." Nevertheless, the simple implication, in the

James P. McGuire as the Investigator in Are You Now Or Have You Ewer Been

—

minds of many Americans at that time was that any witness was a
"pinko Commie". This, at a time when the U.S. was agasp at the
Communist menace to its way of life.

Irony too
The play also conveys an interesting bit of irony. Ring Lardner, Jr.
(Kneland L. Stickles) was convicted and spent some time in prison for
Contempt of Congress (for not answering the $64,000 question). The
Chairman of the HUAC at the time of Lardner's testimony landed in
the same prison (for tax evasion), we are told.

At issue with Lardner's and others' refusal

to

answer certain

questions were; the right to freedom of belief; invasion of privacy: 5th
Amendment rights; and other substantive issues too numerous to treat
here. Both sides of these issues are accurately presented by the play.
The Committee felt the above rights were necessarily subordinated by
America's need to purge the Bed menace. As Lionel Stander (Ray
Munro) put it, "This Committee is like the Spanish Inquisition: You
may not be burned but you can't help coming away a little singed".
Are You Now or Have You Ever Been moves from witness to witness
with sufficient alacnty to avoid being dull. This very fact presents an

interesting dilemna with regard to the attempt towards realism.
Comprised of excerpts from the HUAC Hearings, one would expect the
play to be representative of them. In this one arena it is not Hearings
are inherently dull affairs. The audience is, however, spared most, if
not all, of the monotonous, pressing, and mundane procedings that
characterize Congressional Hearings. It is a method artifact. That is, for
the play to be any good at all it had to sacrifice something
what goes
(and it is the right decision) is the tedium of Committe work.
—

Lesson here

The acting is another of the play's positive attributes. Frank J.
Robinson, in the role of Paul Robeson, and Ray Munro as Lionel
Slander are particularly good. Plaudits must also go to the two
Committe members, played by Mark J. Donahue and Richard
McDonald. On the whole, the cast is credible.
Although one of America's less pelasant episodes, the memory of
the HUAC should not die. The lessons learned there, like those of the
Japanese internment during World War II, the McCarthy Hearings and
and for that reason, worthy of
Watergate, are self-evident
remembrance.
Presented by the Center for Theater Research, at the Pfeifer
Theater (305 Lafayette St., corner of Hoyt St., Buffalo). Are You Now
Or Have You Ever Benn will run through November 20. It begins each
evening except Monday at 8:00 pm. At $1.50, the show is a bargain for
students. It should also be noted that the Pfeifer Theater has no
telephone. Tickets are available at Squire Hall.

Fortune's elastically volatile alto, among other things) to the
eclectic bump of bessviolinist Buster Williams (Pinnacle on Muse).
In an even more expansive vein, there is his brief but potent
presence on Charles Mingus' new classic Three Or Four Shades Of

Some of the finest Miles Davis of the 70's (Get Up With It,
Columbia) features Sonny. "Calypso Frelimo'' showed his flute in
bird flight to the chunga de chugwa of the percussive theme. His
own LP's (Strata-East A&amp;M, and the latest on Atlantic) showcase a
gauntlet ranging from strong mainstream to Latin-Bop

Neil Young is an almost-lost hero. The
simultaneously celebrated and maligned
personal achievement in Tonight's the
Night, Young's dark excursion into the
seamy side of what may appear to some as
gift-wrapped in glassine bags and tin foil
for the fortunate's consumption, is the
perfect example of how Young's grasp of
what urgent rock and roll can be when
combined with a lyrical understanding of
the psychodrama revolving around bands
decimated by everything from deportation
through heroin. Distilled from Crosby,
Stills and Nash, and always playing with
hot and charged rock and rollers (Nils
being the perfect example), the strained
drama and unsympathetic kind of pathos
Young invokes in his best songs ("Hold
Back the Tears" being the latest example),
screams deafeningly the idea of Neil Young
being one of the only true rock and roll
hearts remaining after nearly a decade of
rocky country and falling rocks.

American Stars and Bars still has my vote

Neil Young has a self-serving musical
insufficiency paranoia. His first published
songs were more often than not sung by

Richie Furay, leaving Young with the more
anonymous burden of lead guitar. Sure, it's
an important capacity, but if you ever saw
CSNY in concert, you can see how Young
is more at home stalking the wild amp than

string, center stage. His playing
developed a manic ferocity driving closer
to the edge with each release. There is
tension in his voice (and don't say you

Stevie Nicks and Dylan (one of Young's
early idols) are equally, if not surpassinly,

the loner. He left the Buffalo Springfield in

creative maelstrom that produced "Down

—Duke Ellington,
Music Is My Mistress

The 40's. Era of a war whose violence,
later, would be romanticized by those who
never fought yet will urge conflict. The
Music known as Jazz would become
unpopular and unsocial (with but a few
exceptions) save for watered down format
(this, of course, was happening already)
When the progressions now called Bop
came along (being out . of general media
range for over a year due to a recording
ban), it was too easily dismissed or passed
over by critics and others who already
wanted an excuse to kill Jazz, either with
kindness ("It must always stay simple"
usually meaning simple-minded, which it

never was), or foolishness.
Benny Goodman shook the scene more
than mildly when his versatile band (with
Lionel Hampton, Fletcher Henderson, etc.)
became the first Jazz act to dare the
classical bastions of NYC's Carnegie Hall.
This was 1938, and it seemed to be, to
most, one exception to a general rule
which would never really be broken.
The time is 1948. The Duke's Men by
this time, were world-renowned. In The
Mood is fine, indeed, but only Duke
Ellington could color the mood in sky-blue
indigo. While they performed for listeners
in Europe, however, they were still
categorized, generally, as a "dance band"
(nice, of course) to ignore once you
established a rhythm. A more than
momentary awareness was growing to the
truth.

The Duke's first Carnegie Hall concert,
first in a series of concerts, finally has been
released, bridging a gulf of 30 years that
people only now begin to feel. Prestige
Records, in co-operation with Mercer
Ellington, extend this, first of four sets, to
you. A three record volume of the
Ellington splendor, this release, at last, the
original version of "Black, Brown, and
Beige," first of the Duke's extended suites
The length of "Black, Brown, and
Beige," as well as its spiritual flow of
continuity, opened a range of potentiality
for improvisational Music that, only in the
last decade, has begun to be appreciated
(Consider, please, the Coltrane saga, along
with the Duke's own Sacred Concerts, or
the Sun Ra symphonies, the Braxton
concertos, the Gunter Hampel-Jeanne Lee
rhapsodies . . . suffice it to say, there are,
now, cases in focal point.)
The tone (parallel to the history of the
American Negro) insistently marches a
solemnly buoyant walk. Sonny Greer's

Pilobolus

Experiments in movement
by Tom Dooney

With every appearance they make, Pilobolus
gains enthusiastic fans to add to their existing ranks
of loyal afficianados. Their show at Shea's Buffalo
Center for the Performing Arts, a stopover before a
Broadway run and a world tour that has them
booked solid through 1979, was no different. Their
two idyllic performances and their Buffalo debut
took audiences by storm.

wrap themselves around his arms, slither across his
chest, and attempt to strangle him. This piece is
performed without music
certainly a startling
innovation in itself. There is sound from the bells
though, as they swing through the air, jingling and
rattling quite menacingly.
The company assembles again for the finals.
This untitled piece is the only Rilobolus work having
any suggestion of a plot line. Most of their dances
are free form and lyrical, but this narrative piece is a
stunning exception to the rule. Two sisters, loving
and loyal, groomed in the style of the nineteenth
century New Englanders, run and play in the fields.
They fantasize about love and growing up. And,
miraculously, as they dream of being older they
grow in size. They become lovely giants. Their floor
length gowns become shortened skirts as their legs
appear from under the layers of petticoats. The
sisters are courted by dandies in morning suits and
the women give birth to six-foot-tall infante The

The Pilobolus Dance Theatre in Buffalo ? A rising young dance
company appearing in a city which is perhaps best known for its being
on the way out? No, it's not cruel irony. It is merely an indication that
if Buffali is indeed a dying city, the artists, at least, are still breathing
new life into it.
Let's see. In the last two weeks, the Studio Arena Theatre has
premiered Semmetweiss, written by Pulitzer Prize winner Howard
Sackler. The Pfeifer Theatre opened a two week production of Are
You Now Or Have Yor Ever Been, written and directed by noted
theatre critic (and instructor at this University) Erie Bentley. Serge
Daney, editor of the French film magazine Cahiers do Cinema was dn
campus for two days last week screening six new European films
(among them, two by internationally acclaimed filmmaker Jean-Luc
Goddard). Pilobolus was at Shea's Buffalo Theatre last weekend. And
Jackie Raynal was at the Albright-Knox Art Gallery last night, in
conjunction with the Evenings For New Film series.
That's not to mention the foreign film series which has been going
on for the last six weeks at the Valu Cinema. Or the fact that, for the
most part, major commercial films which have been released this Fall
have opened in Buffalo on the same day or in the same week that they
have opened in New York City.
My point here is not to argue a comparison between New York
and Buffalo: there is none. But just as Buffalo cannot compete
culturally with New York, neither can Cleveland, San Francisco,
Boston, etc. What I am saying, simply, is that, whatever your pleasure,
there is enough happening all over this city to keep even the most
ardent of arts fans busy. Let me flatly state right now that these
unsatisfiable cynics who proclaim that Buffalo is artistically deprived
just haven't been looking very hard.
Indications are, in fact, that the situation is still improving. Next
Spring, Studio Arena will move to an improved facility at the old
Palace Theatre, thanks to a $940,000 grant from the Economic
Development Administration. According to an S.A.T. pamphlet, the
advantages of the new theatre will be "increased audience comfort and,
through
design and technology, enriched artistic quality of
productions." Money is also being spent on renovations at Shea's
Buffalo Theatre, which has been officially declared a city landmark.
As for the productions themselves, the Friends Of The Buffalo
Theater, as well as this University's Office of Cultural Affairs, are to be
commended for their efforts in bringing the Pilobolus company to
town. The people of the Center for Theatre Research also deserve
credit for their work on Are You Now
as do the Center for Media
Study and Value Cinema people for their continuing efforts towards
keeping foreign and experimental films alive and flourishing.
But let us not fool ourselves; there is much yet to be done.
Currently in the works are plans to move the Center For Theatre
Research into the old Studio Arena Theatre when the new S.A.T. is
completed. The profits to be gained from such a move, if it happens,
are numerous. Certainly, the C.F.T.R. would benefit. Conditions at the

feel a cadence of fading war leaving behind
a greater turbulence freedom. At points,
the train comes to mind powerfully. A
rushing exuberance is checked by the
witzend whisper of Carney in duet with
Ben Webster’s tenor. The thought is one
that should have been considered more in
those post Civil War days (and now); What
are we free to do? "T’ain't Nothin Like
Nothin’ I Know" replies with the sad,
thoughtful night's sigh of singer Betty
Roche, evoking the tear-veiled intensity of
the Blues.
Opening into the "Beige" section, we
find, again, a syncopated maelstrom
conjured by the Duke’s Men, as if to show
the unchained power of the tom-toms
calling for the cleansing rain. Duke's
following statement on piano seems, by
nature, a sarcastic smile that knows "You
want crops you'd better take the props."
As ever, the Duke's stride sprinkles stoic
seeds, as evidenced by the solemn waltz of

canyons and naked cities, and Carney s

enclosures. Do we simply strip away the

negative attitudes or do we clothe with a
pervasive clarity? Whatever, the wisdom of
nourishment, as always is essential.

Greer's chimes, followed by Duke (long

leaves us with more than a warm subject to

in order to perform and

was stifled by Gregg Allman's and
Dickey Betts' writing styles.
Because many of their songs were
written in the same key, Leaved
was forced into overplaying
certain piano riffs.
As expected. Sea Level's set
consisted of a mixture of original
jazz influenced pieces and some
boogeying numbers. Leaved and
Nads are undoubtedly the group's
featured musicians, but the
format of the jazzier songs are
loose enough to allow each
musician to experiment and
improvise. It's this progression
into the realms of jazz that
separates Sea Level from the other
Southern groups. Leaved's songs
are similar to Belt's songs such as
“Jessica", but they are basically
more sophisticated and electric
than Betts' tunes. Leaved plays
piano, electric piano, organ and

Besides the jazz oriented songs,
the group performed rhythm and

On these numbers Leavell always
delivered strong vocals and the
group's rythms were always

their more innovative material.

album, Midnight Wind.

and

"Uneasy

live "Uneasy Rider", was fast

the studio version in which the

banjo pickin'.
During the song right before
the encore, "Red Neck Fiddlin'

fiddle. During the number, four
pairs of square dancers sauntered
out and did a little "Tonawanda

for a reckless and energetic
version of that song. The bands
anthem, "The South's Gonna Do

to the late "Southern gladiators"
was an appropos and effective
encore

Charlie's show was good but it
started to become tedious near
the end when the band went into
some extended jams. Charlie
Daniels is a good band but
unfortunately they are not as
talented as the original Allman's
whose collective genius became
salient during their jams. Charlie

lyrics. Lofgrin, aside from being an accomplished
guitarist that was once asked by The Rolling Stones
to replace Mick Taylor and has played with Neil
Young and Crazy Horse, can also write some pretty,

pretty decent pop songs. "Take You to the Movies"
is my favority. "I'll take you to see Star Wars.
You've probably gathered by now that Night

you can take it or leave it. Essentially what you're
getting on Night After Night is a greatest hits LP,
cheaply rehashed as a live rock and roll concert type
record. That's alright but it’s nowhere near as fresh
as any of the earlier efforts. Try Cry Tough; it has a
studio sound which in comparison to this, enhances
the feedback 100%. The only difference here is that

you get a few extra guitar solos and that's not so
necessary. Of course if you've ever been to a Nils

NYPIRG is focusing on both Buffalo campuses in its
bottle-banning efforts before venturing out into the community,
Schillinger claimed. NYPIRG hopes that efforts on campus will be
successful enough to initiate community involvement in January.
“The University should serve as a model to the community,”
Schillinger said, “We logically must start here.”
IRCB not cooperating
The Ellicottessen and the Grub, operated by IRCB still sell
beverages in non-returnable containers. Last year NYPIRG pressure
resulted in cooperation by FSA in getting the Rathskeller to sell only
returnable containers. IRCB Business Manager, Harvey Reiss, claimed
that a lack of space makes it difficult to store returnable bottles
Schillinger refutes this by saying that returnables require no extra space
at all and suggests that this is a “cop-out” by IRCB in dealing with the
problem.
NYPIRG hopes that the Student Association (SA) Senate will also
endorse the non-returnable bottle ban.
The only ways of successfully accomplishing the ban, said
Schillinger, are by either working on a cooperative basis with the stores
selling non-retumables or by requesting and receiving an administrative
ban on non-returnable bottles. NYPIRG however, prefers the former
method.
NYPIRG is launching this bottle ban as another measure to protect
the environment, save energy, and jobs. According to Schillinger, a
severe shortage of land fill space in Erie County for solid wastes is
projected within the next decade. Returnable containers can by
recycled, he said, and need not take up land fill space. Beverage
containers are a significant component of roadside litter, and “because
of the S.OS deposit people are less prone to litter with returnables.”
Returnables save energy, Schillinger explained, because fewer bottles
need to be manufactured. According to the State Task Force on
Critical Problems (which did the definitive study on this problem)
mandatory deposit legislation would result in a net gain in employment
of some 5,200 jobs.

in the Arab world, claiming “the situation in the
Arab world is unnatural. It is unnatural to have all

subservient to imperialism and not the people.”

�CFC Follies: high on Asian, African change
talent and excitement
According to its charter, the purpose of Clifford Furnas College
(CFC I. located in Fargo Quad of the Fdlicott Complex, is “to bridge
the communications gap between the sciences and the humanities."
One of these bridges is the “Furnas Follies,” a talent show held
annually in the Katharine Cornell Theater.
This year’s version of the Follies was held last Saturday.
Fxcitement had been running high for a week before the show, with
people involved in the production finding odd places all over the
College to rehearse. Banners announcing “Furnas Follies Fever" were
everywhere. When the big night finally arrived, some 220 people
attended, including an estimated 70 percent of the college’s
membership The performers were all members of CFC, with the
exception of one former member who arrived from Geneseo State to
take part in the show
Finding that sweet spot
Music was provided by bands with names like “The Wi/ Kids" and
“The Mind-Bending, Sweet Spot Finding, Money Jingling’. Fast Talking
Sweet Walking All-American Grinder Band The acts included comedy
skits, a slightly unorthodox choir, a simulated assassination of CFC
dance group known as the
president Bob Rose, and a male
“Fargoettcs" who have graced the production for the three years of its
existence, and never fail to bring down the house. There was also a
slide show immortalizing high moments in CFC social life Alter the
show there was a reception in Fargo Cafeteria
The show is pul on entirely by students alhtough the Master ol

were afnad of him They were
surprised to find they were living
with a magician, two doves and a
tarantula. Steicr’s roommates no
longer have any fears of being
turned into frogs, but they refuse
to play cards with him.
Steier makes cards appear and
disappear, and throws them onto
the floor from a seemingly
unending deck. He also eats fire
and allows his tarantula, Boris, to
commemorate the

Instead

To help himself achieve this
goal, Steier is seeking a speical
major in “performing arts and
magic.” He feels that he is getting
more out of his education than
are other students, because of the
practical experience he gets from
classes. “Acting is vital to a
magician,” he says, “because you
can only go so far with magic;
how you present it makes the
difference

Steier has great plans for
himself and magic. He says magic
has always been restricted to small
audiences because it is only
effective when seen close up.
Through the use of technology,
Sleier would like to bring his
mime and magic show to large
audiences. He feels the effect
would be totally different from
that ot small shows, and he hopes
to bring such a show on campus

crosstown rival Buffalo State 0-0

Saturday, in its last game of the
season. Although rugby is not
usually a winter sport, the game
was played with four inches of
snow on the field, prompting one
rugger to quip, “Now I know how
the Vikings feel in Bloomington.”
The hardy souls showing support
from the sidelines, certainly
weren’t disappointed as the Bulls
played in tournament style.
The Bulls were definitely “up”
for the last home game of the
season, and showed the Bengals
what is to be expected of them in
seasons to come. Tooth-jarring
tackles by the Bulls sapped up any

No wonder you’d never consider any other form of feminine
protection. And no wonder
you’re in such wonderful shape.

The Intramural Football League Championship
game was disbanded during the second half, when a
series of fights broke out between the two
contestants, The Bionic Men and Franny’s Beaver
Patrol. Because both teams were at fault, officials in
charge of Intramurals have decided that there will be
no intramural champion this fall.
“It’s very unfortunate, because it has been a
successful program, but due to the circumstances, it
was the only move,” stated Director of Intramurals

drive that Buffalo State mustered.
With both their forwards and
backs playing an excellent game
the Bulls dominated the Bengals
for most of the afternoon. A host
Buffalo blocked a number of
Bengal kicks and thus were able to
move deep into Bengal territory
on several occasions. But the
greater experience of the Bengals
proved invaluable as their defense
managed to fight off UB’s drives
before any damage had been
done.

‘

Bill Monkarsh.
Monkarsh said that the intramural program was
set up for fun and clean competition, and that
although he’s glad that the competition is taken
seriously, fighting under any circumstances will not
be tolerated. “We took a stand against fighting,
which is more important than deciding a champion,”
added Assistant Director Steve Allen, who was also
the head referee in the game.

Penalty kicks

The Bulls were awarded two
penalty kicks at the 25 yard mark,
but both were missed, largely
because of the snowy landscape.
The penalty kicks were awarded
at the points of infraction, which
were about 10 yards from the
sideline (line of touch), making
the kicking angle an extremely
difficult one. Buffalo State did
move into LIB territory toward
the end of the match, but the
whistle blew to end the game
before any drive was initiated.
With its 14-0 win over Niagara
and 0-0 lie to the Bengals, UB is
slowly emerging as a ranking
power among Western New York
schools, according to coach Mike
Regan. He said that things are
definitely looking up for the
young UB team.
With UB set to play a full
spring schedule, Regan suggested
that rugby would be an excellent
way for fail sports enthusaists to
stay in shape over the spring.
Besides being an excellent sport,
there is always a party afterwards,
he said. The party, or third half as
it is often called, features beer
drinking, rowdy songs and a
chance for previous 80 minutes.
The UB Semi-annual Rugby
Queen pageant was held at last
Saturday’s party. Jamie Roach
was picked from a field of 20
women. The club hopes for a
better turnout of both spectators
and players for the spring season.

controversial calls, but they went both ways,” he
said.
Allen felt that the Intramural Department has
set a precedent by taking this action. “It’s a warning
for all students that this type of unsportsmanlike
conduct will not be tolerated,” he said. This is the
first time in UB intramural history that this form of
discipline was taken. Both Monkarsh and Alien were
especially worried about any serious injuries that
fighting could cause.

&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;

Nearly all parking lots on the
three U$vernty campuses were
dogged with,'snow and ice
Mdnday evening, three days after
the season’s first snowfall dumped
up to six inches of the white stuff
on the University area.
The Maintenance Department’s
inadequate
performance,
particularly on the Main Street
Campus, was blamed on a host of
factors by a number of sources
including the Veteran’s Day
holiday, poor timing, and a lack
of money.
Assistant Vice President for
Physical Facilities, Burr Folts,
offered no comfort to the dozens
of students seen spinning their
wheels over the weekend in the
unplowed lots. “There will be ice
in those lots all winter,” he said.
However, most of the officials in
touch with the situation seemed
to feel the problem was a result of
a series of unusual circumstances.

Program Coordinator Ray Reinig,

on a holiday. “We were working
with a skeleton crew,” he said.
Folts concurred, saying, “We try
to work with skeleton crews on

holidays.”

Go to Albany
Overtime money must be paid
to people working on holidays,
and, said Reinig, “We didn’t want
to expend too much overtime

money.” Reinig added that “we

don’t have much overtime money
left.” There is no money
specifically set aside for overtime
for snow removal.
payment
Overtime pay comes out of a
general fund for emergencies. If
an unusually heavjr winter occurs,
and the Maintenance Department
runs out of those funds, the
school will “have to go to
Albany” for more, according to
James Sarra, Director of Physical
Plant for Main Street. However,
Reinig feels that “if we are
prudent with the money we have
we will make it through the
winter.”
The gradual shift of the
University to Amherst is depleting
the manpower reserves on the
Main
Street Campus. The

Snow dogged Mein Street lots three deyt after the first winter storm.
Maintenance Department has lost
100 people in the last two years,
many of them to the new facilities
at Amherst. Where each building
on Main Street once had its own
custodian, a custodian might now
be responsible for two or more
buildings.
Yet another reason

for the

depleted manpower situation at
Main Street on Friday was the
dedication of Capen Hall on the
Amherst Campus. “At about 11
ajn. on Friday we had to send
plows out to Amherst for the
Capen dedication,” reported Mr.
Sarra. However, the Amherst
parking lots, with few exceptions,
were no clearer than Main

Street’s.
The fact that the snow didn’t
start to accumulate until so late
also contributed to the problem
of removal. Also, snow was not
falling all over the city, but only
in certain areas, leaving those
responsible for initiating removal
unaware of the snowfall here. “I

explained Denise Stumpo, a

neck was a plastic six-pack ring. It
was cutting into the mouth all the
way back to its neck. We found a
fisherman who had a knife and
cut it off. The bird was really
weak. It didn’t even resist us and
when it was released, couldn’t fly.
It swam away.”

Plastic six-pack rings and
aluminum tabs cause the death of
thousands of animals each year.
Many cases have been reported
where animals, especially birds
and fish have died because
six-pack rings were not disposed
of properly, according to Mark
Ginsberg, head of the Buffalo
Animal Rights Committee here.
“Cats may find these rings and

Meanwhile, in another facet of the case, the

Academic Affairs, Claude Welch, the SUNY Faculty
Senate urged the Board of Trustees to eliminate the
Jewish holidays for next year because of the tight
fall semester. Fall semesters at this University
traditionally begin after Labor Day and end several
days before Christmas, leaving little scheduling
slack.
Dremuk attributes the addition of the Jewish
holidays to the calendar to the “traditional
amount
of pressure on campus.”

Holidays cause confusion
Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia
confirmed Dremuk’s attitude and added that
the
addition of the holidays “lead to a
tremendous
amount of initial confusion at the start of
the
semester.” Delia explained that students

holidays break
and are interrupted, making it difficult to “get into
the swing of things again.”
Delia added that scheduling around the holidays
was thought to be a good idea at first,

campus, everyone must have off. The/foly holidays

asked about the

starting school earlier is the

-

Sped*! to The Spectrum

In aearching to become more knowledgable on
the issue of nuclear power, I dove into studying the
disposal of high-level radioactive waste. 1 am by no
means a specialist in atomic energy. 1 am more the
modern day male counterpart of the Greek’s
Pandora: though the box I opened did not release
troubles into the wrikid, 1 have seen troubles for the
world in that -box. Troubles that have so shocked
me. my conscience compels this writing.
In recent times our minds have been bombarded
by the fossil fuel shortage. The shortage and oil
embargo of 1973 served the proponents of nudeSr
power well We are told that we need a new reliable
source of energy. And we do. The catch is, we’ve
been conditioned toe believe that the only viable
source is nuclear. This is where the “current’’
deception begins: solar energy u viable now.
Marshall Ausuebei, former Alternative Energy
Laboratory Coordinator to Rachel Carson College
and New York Public Interest Research Group, had
this to say: “Photovoltaic solar cells take light and
convert it into electricity. According to Dr. Barry
Commoner, the Federal Energy Administration
suppressed studies that showed that photovoltaic
solar cells
would be almost immediately
cost-competitive with conventional energy
If the
defense department was to put in an order for the
cells with one of the major companies, it would have
the effect of creating an industry. The industry
would mass produce the cells and the economies of
scale would almost immediately drive the cost of
production right down. After a brief period of time
photovoltaic cells would be cost-competitive.”
Concerning the nonexistence of a photovoltaic
cefl industry, a source from within the nuclear power
community said: “The only problem keeping the
industry is money.”
...

Now that the contention “nuclear power is the
only viable energy” has been determined a
deception, we should examine why this fraud was

perpetrated.
The deceit helps the nuclear proponents by
getting us “with them." The expression “with them”
is used by salesmen to describe human behavior,
when people want to buy the product being sold, in
this case “with them” is particularly appropriate.
For, ih essence, it has been inscribed in our brains to
associate the fact that we need a new source of
energy with the deception that nuclear is the only
viable source. Therefore we are almost sold on
nuclear power; we’re “with them" from the start.
But jre need to know one thing before we’re

power is the only way, really pays off, for it
predispositions us to readily believe that nuclear
power is safe. Our minds have been placed in a
highly susceptible state, resulting in our acceptance
as fact, unsubstantiated claims that nuclear power is
safe.
To find out if nuclear power is safe, does the
American public tun to the libraries, or write to the
Environmental Protection Agency or Nuclear
Regulatory Commission? No! Does this nation’s
most concerned and best informed individuals,
college students, make their own investigation of
nuclear power? No! Then how is it that the
American public and the college students know that
nuclear power is safe?
Quite simply, you don’t know that nuclear
power is safe. However, you have been conditioned
to think that it’s safe. So every time you hear an
advertisement promoting nuclear power and your
public utility, stop! You are being conditioned.
Perceive the reality. Some 200 million people
have been spoon-fed an education in nuclear power
by an advertising firm. Does this spoon-fed
education consist of any hard facts and figures? No!
The education via the media is kept simple to serve
the best interest of the nuclear power community.
The voice of the advertising firm gently insists
“nuclear power is safe and clean energy.” And that’s
all. Then we’re returned to our program (ing).

Protection Agency (EPA).

Dr. Joseph Highland, director of EDPs Toxic

Chemicals Program, stated, “The EPA’s findings

are

precisely what we predicted in Troubled Waters. The
EPA has verified our main conclusion that the
Hudson is extremely contaminated with a spectrum
of hazardous substances, many previously
undetected.”
Thy Hudson River provides drinking water for
150,000 people. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers
hss proposed to supply 10 million people in the New
York metropolitan area with water from the river.
Many toxic chemical pollutants identified in
contaminated industrial wastewaters were also
identified by the EPA study far downriver from their
discharge points.
Dibutyl phthalate,
1.2
dlchloroethane, chloroform, and toluene were
found. “The EPA’s study, which was much more
extensive than ours, uncovered even more toxic
poflutants than we were able to find,” said Walter
Hang. NYPfRG staff scientist and coordinator of the
Hudson River Project.

So, some of the facts and figures that are so
absent
in the nuclear power
commercials must be explored. It must be
remembered that the following instances and
statistics do tend to be conservative; many of them
originate from the federal bureaucracy and nuclear
power industry that hired the advertising firm to
keep you ignorant and brainwashed.
The generation of electricity by nuclear power
results in the formation of high-level readioactive
waste. The 1970 physics Nobel Laureate, Hans
Alfven, concisely evaluates the present and future
dilemna posed by atomic energy: ‘The problem is
how to keep radioactive wdata in storage until it
decays after hundreds of thousands of years. The
deposit must be absolutely reliable as the quantities
of poison are tremendous. It is very difficult to
satisfy these requirements for the simple reason that
we have had no practical experience with such a long
term project.” If Nobel Laureates are questioning
the possibility of safely storing the radioactive waste,
shouldn’t you?

The EPA study, entitled Monitoring to Detect
Previously Unrecognized Pollutants in Surface Water,
was recently completed after two years of work, at a
cost of $450,000. More than 200 water samples
from major rivers across the nation were collected
and examined by a team of scientists from the
University of Illinois. Twenty-eight samples were
collected fm IS sites along the Hudson River.
Nationwide, hundreds of exotic chemicals 'were
identified. Many were known or suspected
carcinogens (cancer-causing agents), teratogens
(causing birth defects), or otherwise hazardous.
Donald Ross, director of NYPIRG, stated, “We
hope this new evidence wdl at last force the EPA and
New York State’s environmental and health agencies
into immediate action. It’s been perfectly obvious
the Hudson is extremely contaminated with
life-threatening pollutants.”
Troubled Waters, a 210-page study released in
late September, was the result of a 20 month study
of the Hudson River. Its major findings detailed the
inability of New York State’s Pure Waters Program
to come to grips with toxic chemicals contaminating
the Hudson. It also outlined potential health hazards
associated with carcinogens polluting water supplies.
Epidemiologic studies conducted by EDF and other
researchers in New Orleans and Cincinnati have
associated consumption of trace carcinogens in
drinking water with increased cancer mortality rates.

became the movement of the entire Greek
population. The oppressed Greeks identified with
the students, who were more than “a few trouble
makers” as the military government called them. The
Polytechnic school had become the heart of free
Greece and rallies started from it headed towards
different ministries. At that point the government
could no longer dismiss the rally as unimportant.
The police force was on the alert. The army was
put in a state of readiness for action. The crowds in
and around the school were so huge that no vehicles
could pass through the surrounding streets.
On the 17th of the month, despite radio and
television messages relayed over government
controlled stations to the effect that everything was
settled, the junta decided to put an end to a
situation which was more than uncomfortable for
them. The army was commanded to “restore order.”
A state of emergency was declared and the chief of
staff took control of the situation. Trained
commandoes were sent to aid the police. It was
decided to break the university sanctuary, always
respected in the past, despite the university senate’s
objection to any interference on the part of the
army or police.
At two a.m. in the morning, on the 18th of
November, the first armored tank entered the

Students holding flags and singing the national
anthem stood in the main gate of the school as the
tanks crashed through, heading against them. After
the troops entered the police followed. Many people
were killed and injured,nd many more were arrested.
Once more the blood of students became a sacrifice
to the altar of freedom. The next morning the
sunlight showed the toll of seven days of freedom.
Broken flags, posters, and printed matter that came
from the students' hearts lay on the ground under
the boots of the police who were designated to
“clean up” the place occupied by “a few students.”
The student radio station remained silent now. The
cold and darkness of the militarism was back. But
the seed had fallen. The students' voice of the
Polytechnic school will always reamin alive in the
hearts of all of us, a voice of freedom and
non-compromise. This is why we commemorate this
event each November.

In connection with Mr. Harvey Shapiro’s articles appearing in
The Spectrum October 28 through November 2, and the responses
from Mr. Ronney Chih (November 2) and Mr. Dick Yeh (November
4), as a Taiwanese, 1 feel obliged to bring out the following points.

/

KMT has been ruling Taiwan since 1945 at the end of WW1I. In
1949, Chiang Kai-Shek, the leader of KMT, and his followers took
refuge in Taiwan, and immediately proclaimed a state of siege and
imposed martial law upon the people of Taiwan. All constitutional
guarantees of civil liberties have been virtually abrogated. The abuse
of human rights by KMT regime has been well documented. In its
recent report (paper No. 6, Oct. 1976), Amnesty International
stated that, “violation of human rights has been the prevailing
practices in Taiwan,” also “political prisoners have been subjected
to various forms of mental and physical torture.”
On February 28, 1947 and the following weeks, the people in
Taiwan throughout the island rebelled to voice their grievances
against the brutality and maladministration of the regime and to
demand the political reforms. Their voices were silenced by the
KMT army with a massacre of more than 20,000 Taiwanese leaders.

Not a snow plow
To the Editor

I am a fully registered student at this University
and being such, have received and have fully paid my
tuition along with the various assortment of
additional fees. I am, however, a commuting student.
I realize that this last fact does not grant me any
special privileges. However, I do feel that since I do
not participate in the assortment of school funded
activities because of their inconvenience, my share of
fees (along with the other commuters) should be

applied to something that will facilitate us.

My suggestion involves the plowing of the
parking lots. All I ask of this University are a half
way decent education and a clean place to park my
car while I am getting it. It snowed (heavily?) on
Friday and I can understand why they were clogged
then However, it is Monday and I have not only not
seen a now plow, but not any salt either. Three days
and still no action for their cleanup? Am 1 and other
commuters really asking for too much?
'em Hall

No snow removal (too much work?)
To the Editor
On Friday evening, November I 1th, while
exiting from the Mam stairway of Farher Hall, we
noticed large accumulations of snow and ice. This ice
resulted from the snowfall earlier in the day which
was not removed, hut instead left to melt and later
freeze. The accumulated snow froze into a mound
on the stairs which caused people to loose a solid
footing.
This condition was not limited to Farher, but
also to constantly used entrances and exits of the
dorm buildings.
The steps are enough of a challenge to the blind
and handicapped normally, without adding on such
slippery and icy conditions. These conditions are not
only hazardous to the handicapped, but to all people
entering and leaving buildings.

In this day and age of enormous lawsuits, we do
not feel that this University is in such a position to
absorb the tremendous losses which may occur. Nor
do we feel tha the administrators want to have such
an accident(s) on their conscience forever.
What would happen in the case of a fire where
people would be hurried out of a building? It
appears that the University is waiting for a serious
perhaps fatal accident to occur for them to take
proper measures to prevent further casualties. Is this
the only way to get action? We find this quite
unexoisable in a university of this size. We hope that
such a situation will never occur at this university.
We look forward to a speedy reply on this
matter by (he administration within the next couple
of issues of The Spectrum.

1. What is KMT?

people in Taiwan are still forbidden to converse or discuss anything
relating to this “February 28 incident.”
“Recovering the mainland China” has been the national policy
of the KMT regime. To carry out, or to pretend to carry out, this
fantastic policy, the regime had to put Taiwan and its people under
tight control, instead of gaining their support. Besides the armed
forces, the most important tactic from KMT to tightly control
Taiwan is “thought indoctrination.” In Taiwan, posession of any
anti-KMT material is subjected to the most severe penalty. When
students go abroad, they are “advised” by the regime, at annual
“overseas study training class,” to keep away from any “wrong”
information, such as the propaganda of communist and Taiwan
independence movements. Mr. Chih said, “Our government does
not forbid us to read communist propaganda
on the contrary,
we are encouraged to do so, to compare and to think.” I believe
either Mr. Chih is not from Taiwan, or “he went wild for a while.”
Apparently, KMT in Taiwan and the Democratic or Republican
Party of this country have nothing in common. The comparison as
done by Mr. Chih is farfetched, if not ridiculous.
2. Spying!!!
Knowing the nature of their ruling in Taiwan, one would not
be surprised to learn about spying activities of KMT in the U.S. In
...

fact, most of the Taiwanese/Chinese students know that there is a
KMT unit on every major university campus, including UB, in the
U.S

The incidents of KMT spying reported in Shapiro’s articles and
in other newspapers are the only incidents which have drawn
attention. There are many others that have not been, or could not
have been, brought into light.
in 1973, a former faculty member of the U.B. Civil Kngineering
Department, was denied the renewal of his passport by the
consulate of KMT regime in New York, because of his alleged
pro-communist attitude. He reportedly compalined that he was the
victim of “small report” filed by the U.B. KMT unit.
In a recent U.B. KMT Unit meeting, it was reportedly decided
that KMT would attempt to take control of Chinese Students
Association and Taiwanese Club of (l.S.A. The head of the U.B.
unit effectively put pressure on students from Taiwan by charging
in the meeting that the existence of Taiwanese Club symbolized the
anti-government activities of overseas Taiwanese.
3. It’s a crime!!
Shapiro said, “Although there is much evidence to support the
claim that a KMT surveillance network exists, it is hard to pinpoint
the identities of alleged agents.” Perhaps while it is important to
pinpoint the alleged agents or to find out how many Taiwanese
students are actually spied on. it is more important to understand a
fact that all non-KMT Taiwanese students are constantly conscious
of the omnipresence surveillance network of KMT.
Besides the educational interests, one of the reasons foreign
students come here is that America is a free country so that we can
pursue our beliefs freely. We cun express our political views without
fear. Unfortunately, that has not been the case for students from
Taiwan. That so many overseas Taiwanese feel and believe they are
being observed by their own government agents and they are under
the threat that their actions may be reported back home is itself a
serious problem. To me, it is a crime
4, Future of Taiwan.
While the KMT regime has been denying the fundamental rights
of Taiwanese people, it is inhumane that the People’s Republic of
China takes Taiwan for granted, that Taiwan is an integral part of
China, and that China has every right to liberate Taiwan, without
ever ascertaining what Taiwanese people really want
16 million people in Taiwan, like other people anywhere in the
world, deserve the right to decide their own fate. Neither KMT nor
Communist China can deprive Taiwanese people of their rights.

We condemn the gross violation of human rights
in Iran and the imprisonment of 100,000 political
prisoners by the Shah’s brutal regime.
We protest the suppression of Iranian people by
SAVAK, inside and outside of Iran.

We also protest continuing U.S. support for the
Shah and the Shah’s visit to the United States at the
invitation of the Carter administration.
It is not the American people who will greet the
Shah when he arrives at the White House.

Soul searching

dedicated in ceremony A single person's alternative

The dedication of Samuel P. Capen Hall on Friday, November
marked
the ceremonial opening of the largest structure on the
11
Amherst Campus. Centrally located, the three-building complex
(Norton,; Capen, Talbert) houses three major libraries, University
Administration, and various student services. Dr. Capen, who
bequeathed funds for the building, was honored for his
unprecedented academic leadership as the first full-time Chancellor
of this University.
Held at Norton Theater in the east wing of Capen Hall, the
dedication ceremony was presided over by University Council
Chairman William C. Baird. Remarks were given by Mortimer
Havlin, Chancellor of Clark University where Capen started his
career, and University President Dr. Robert Ketter who reiterated
the words of Capen at his dedication of Foster Hall in 1922
“they (the buildings) express the University.” The unveiling of the
plaque was performed dually by Baird and Ketter, followed by the
dedication address of Dr. Seymour Upset, author and sociologist at
Stanford University, who discussed the Bakke case and minority
trends in education. The invocation and Benediction were rendered
by Reverend John'K. Hammon of the Unitarian Universalist Church
in Buffalo. Musical fanfare by University Brass accompanied the
ceremonial procession.

A grant from the NEH has enabled the Graduate

this year to participate in the Interdepartmental
Seminars organized by the Graduate Group.
On Tuesday. November 22 at 7:45 p.m.,
Professor Peter Gay of Yale University will meet
with Peter Heller and Georg Iggers’ seminar on the
“Problematics of Modem Civilization.” Professor
Gay will not give a formal lecture but lead a
discussion based on his recent book, Art andAct. On

the role of psycho-history in historical explanation.
Professor Gay wishes to explore a number of ideas
regarding alternatives to the prevailing biographically
oriented forms of psycho-history.
We wish to keep the group small enough to be
conducive to discussion. However, in addition to the
regular members of the seminar, we can admit a

Hockey home opener
is tonigfit vs. Oswego
by Michael Rudny
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The hockey Bulls play their home opener tonight against number
one antagonist Oswego State, in what promises to be a very important
and exciting game. “Oswego is still our biggest rival, even though Union
College and Buffalo have developed a strong rivalry with us too,” said
Buffalo coach Ed Wright. “You just never know what will happen
during a typical UB-Oswego contest.”
Oswego has lost several of their top players to graduation, but
Wright expects the Great Lakers to be as tough a team as they have
been in the past. “Oavcgo has always been physical,” said the Buffalo
coach. ‘They have always tried to slow us down by playing the body
and confusing us with their slow-down tactics. They want to wait and
play for breaks. I expect the same type of play from them this year

emphasized that his team must work and skate hard to keep the puck
in the Oswego end of the rink. “We have always had success when we
forced the puck in their end,” he explained. “We will try to do this
over three periods of hockey in order to beat them.”

Conference nee

The Turkey Trot, one of the most successful
and colorful events of the intramural calendar,
will be held on Thursday. So far, only 65 people
have signed up to compete in the race, so the
competition should be easier than last year’s, in
which 175 people ran.
The prize fo; the winners in each of the eight
categories is a 24 pound turkey. In order to win
those turkeys, contestants will have to race two
and a half miles around Grover Cleveland Golf
Course (on the other side of Bailey) or if that
course is unrunnable, around the Main Street
Campus.

The eight categories are men’s and women’s
faculty or staff singles, men’s and
women’s teams, and faculty and staff teams
(there are four people pet team). Assistant
Director of Recreation and Intramurals Steve
Allen noted that both the staff categories (which
include administrators) and the women’s singles

where he left off last season, as he finished first in
his weight class at the prestigious Colgate Open
tournament on Saturday. Last year, Anderson was
the only Bull to qualify for the NCAA
.

Tonight’s game will also be Buffalo's first in the newly formed
New York Collegiate Hockey Association (NYCHA) which puts added
importance on the matchup. “Games with Oswego loom very
important,” stated Wright, who considers every NYCHA game
important. “In order for us to win the NYCHA championship we will
have to beat them."
Wright feels that Oswego, Elmira, and the Bulls are the teams
which arc favored to win the NYCHA title. “Oswego has to be
considered a contender," he noted. “They have an established team
and have always had an excellent club. Unlike the other clubs in the
league, they have been in existence for over two or three years and this
is to their benefit.”
Tonight’s game is also important to the Bulls’ reputation and
playoff hopes. The sixteen teams which make the Division II
championship tournament in the East are selected by a committee of
officials who select what they consider to be the top teams. “A win
over Oswego is recognized throughout the East,” said Wright. “A
victory over Oswego is a meaningful yardstick by which we will be
evaluated.”

Loss to Saints
The Bulls played their first game of the season Saturday night at
St. Lawrence and dropped a 7-4 decision to the Division I Saints. St.
Lawrence jumped out to a 3-0 lead after 28 minutes and then traded
goals with the Bulls for the remainder of the contest. Buffalo’s goals
were all scored by the same forward line. Tom Wilde scored twice while
Nnemates Ed Patterson and Stu Campbell netted one goal each.
According to coach Wright, “We just were not moving the puck
because we were doing too many individual things. We had many
powerplay opportunities but didn’t capitalize on them because we did
not move the puck the way we should.” Wright was happy with the
overall play of the team even though it lost. “Our team was together
and the enthusiasm was good,” he said.
Tonight’s game with Oswego is scheduled to begin at 7,30 in the
Tonawanda Sports Center.

Championships.
Despite the fact that it was Buffalo’s first
competition of the new season, two other Bulls
finished high in their respective weight classes.
Junior Ed Tyrrell finished second at 134, while Dave

Mitchell finished fourth.

Members of Buffalo’s volleyball team, in the
meantime, were not so successful. They travelled to
the State Championships at Siena College in
Loudonville and lost every match they played.
They began the weekend with a loss to St. John
Fisher 11-15, 7-13, in the first round of pool play on
Friday. Then against Cortland, the winner of last

categories have sparse registration so far.
Contestants should meet in front of Clark
Hall at 4 p.m. tomorrow to get their numbers for
the race. Entries will be accepted until tomorrow
at 3 p.m. in Room 113 Clark Hall.
When asked why the Turkey Trot Is so
popular, Allen replied, “Well, die turkey’s pretty
nice.” This race also gives the joggers of the
University a chance to test their skills. The
Turkey Trot is one of the few events in which
students, faculty and staff can all compete
(although they don’t compete against each
other). The overall winner each of the last taro
years has been Walter Gantz, Assistant Professor
vanity
of Speech
Communication and
cross-country and track and field coach.

Interested runners should sign up in Room
113 Clark Hall today or tomorrow between 12

nearly pulled off an upset
in the first game with a narrow 16-14 loss. In the
second game of that match they turned around and
pulled “a Buffalo Bills,” according to coach Peter
Wcinreich by getting demolished 15-0.
Buffalo completed pool play with an 8-15,
15-13,7-15 loss to Barnard College.
On Saturday, in the single elimination round
Buffalo was quickly eliminated by Potsdam 16-14.
12-15, 7-15. The tournament was eventually won by
Brockport.
Buffalo came away a little battered from the
tournament. Freshman Akemi Tsigi sustained a
finger injury while setter Barb Starbuck got an elbow
in the mouth which split her Kp. Then on Saturday,
Starbuck got hit in the eye by Wanda Mesmer. ON
both days, she continued playing after minor repairs.

Buffalo’s final record is 17-24. Weinreich
blamed the team’s lower winning percentage partly
on its tougher schedule this year. But with the many
freshmen on the squad he is optimistic about next
year. ‘Their (the freshmen’s] experience is really
going to show next year. The team should be really
well seasoned,” he said.

&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;

Lack of space threatens dept.
by Stephanie Weisman
Spectrum

Staff Writer

The Clinical Psychology division of the
Psychology Department here is in critical danger of
losing accreditation because of space shortages at its
Ridge Lea campus base.
The department has been virtually stranded on
the Ridge Lea site, after moving several years ago
from the Main Street Campus amid firm promises of
a new home in a Social Sciences building on the
Amherst Campus. That structure is perhaps 10 to 15
years away, while cramped conditions and the
desolation of Ridge Lea have led to morale problems
in one of the University’s largest and most highly
regarded departments.
week the American Psychological
Last
Association sent an accrediting team to Ridge Lea
&lt;

for a site visit, as part of an evaluation of Clinical
Psychology’s application for an accredidation
renewal. The team said it would be reluctant to
reconsider continued accreditation unless the
facility’s problems are adequately solved.
“There is no academic justification for a lack of
accreditation,” said chairman of the Psychology
Department Kenneth J. Levy. “If we fail to be
accredited, it will only be due to lack of sufficient
resources from the University in terms of our spatial
needs. The team decided to wait two weeks for a
response from the University administrators in hopes
that the facilities problem will be satisfactorily
resolved,” Levy stated.
The October issue of American Psychologist
rated the department here 16th in the nation in
terms of research productivity. “We are not arguing
about a piddling department, said Levy, The
psychology department has a very high national

visibility. If the University rants us to maintain high
quality, we have to have

Somit wants to see what plans are proposed and if
they are reasonable. It seems that there may have
been previous plans that were thrown out.
“If they renew the situation and the alternatives
look reasonable, they will be presented to me this
week.” commented Levy. “If the alternatives don’t
seem reasonable, I don’t know when I will see the
plans. I have no more information now than I had
two months ago,” he continued. “It seems like
there’s been some kind of screw up in plans. I have
appointed a committee to evaluate the plans from
the meeting, so we are ready for them at any time.”
The Psychology Department has waited ten
years for a Social Sciences building which is not even
in the planning stages. Department officials were
told when considering a move to Ridge Lea from
Main Street that they would be one of the first
departments to move to Amherst.
Stranded buildings
The phase out of Ridge Lea began last semester
when the State Division of Budget cut rental monies.
Last summer five buildings were vacated. This year
four more are to be emptied, isolating and stranding
the remaining four, one of which is the Psychology

building, which costs this University over $300,000
per year to rent.

Judge limits ‘News’
Sunday paper plans
by Jay Rosen
Managing Editor

A Federal Judge last Wednesday ordered the Buffalo Evening News

to cut back from five weeks to two weeks an introductory offer for its

new Sunday morning edition. The judge termed the offer “a predatory
action, the purpose and effect of which is to attempt to monopolize.”
Visiting Judge Charles L Brieant, in issuing a preliminary
injunction in a lawsuit filed by the Courier-Express wrote in his
48-page ruling: “There are only two newspapers now. If the plan works
as I find it is intended to work, there will be but one left. This is
apparent on the entire record before me." The News had sought to
distribute without customer consent, the first five issues of its Sunday
paper to all subscribers currently receiving the Saturday evening News.
The $ 1.05 subscription price for the old six day-a-week News would
remain unchanged for the initial five weeks, despite the extra paper on
Sunday. Thereafter, a week’s subscription would be priced at $1.20.
The Courier, in originally filing the suit October 28, called this “giving
away” the Sunday edition, and charged the News with attempting to
monopolize the Western New York newspaper market.
Brieant also ordered the News to inform all advertisers who
cancelled ads in the Sunday Courier that the News is withdrawing its
“guarantee” of a 280.000 circulation for the first Sunday paper
November 13. That guarantee had assumed a proportion of newsstand
sales, which the Judge apparently felt could not be legitimately assured
to advertisers.
*

Jury trial
Judge Brieant refused to bar the News from selling the Sunday
paper at 30 cents, a price the Courier had contended to be
“unreasonably low.” The Courier, and all other comparable Sunday
papers in Upstate New York, charges 50 cents. Brieant wrote; “The
Court cannot say that it is [unreasonably low], at least not on this
record.”
Thus far, News attorneys have not appealed the preliminary
injunction. Brieant has ordered a prompt triad in the suit and directed
attorneys to begin preparing for pre-trial discovery procedings.
The Judge felt the Count i. during the week long preliminary
hearings, had exhibited “a clear probability of success” that it could
prove in a jury trial that the News' intent was to “monopolize and
harm the Courier. Barring appeal, the Courier must now convince a
Western New York jury of the News’ specific intent to monopolize the
Buffalo newspaper market and that damage to the Courier will result.
Brieant was apparently annoyed at News’ attorney Paul Olsen's
insistent contentidn that the News’ introductory offer amounted to
giving away the Saturday morning paper, rather than the Sunday
edition. During closing arguements, the Judge asked Olsen, “Isn’t it
really true that it’s a free Sunday newspaper?” Olsen would not agree
with Brieant’s logic. In his report, the Judge wrote: “At the hearing,
defendant [Olsen] persisted in the quibble that it was the new,
abridged Saturday morning paper [to be given away].”

Chilean student here recounts torture and heating
by Brett Kline
Editor-in-Chie)

Editor’s note: Miguel Perez, currently a student in the
Intensive English Language Institute at this University, was
arrested by agents of the Augusto Pinochet military regime
in his home town of Osorno, Chile one year after the
regime overthrew the democratically elected socialist
government of Salvatore AUende. Miguel had just
completed high school at the time of his arrest; he spent
over two and a half years in various jails until August.
1977, when he was sent to Buffalo.
Miguel Perez is not his real name.
Much thanks to Alvarro Carrasco, a member of the
Third World Student Association, who translated two
lengthy interviews with Miguel and thus made the writing
of his story possible.
The president of the student association at Miguel
Peres’ high school in Osorno, Chile, was murdered on
September II, 1973, by agents of the military regime led
by General Augusto Pinochet. On that day Pinochet’s
army, financed by the American government, ITT, General
Tire, General Motors and Dow Chemical among others,
and trained by the C.I.A., overthrew the socialist
government of Salvadore AUende and established a
military dictatorship. Since that time, sheer terror has been
the way of Ufe in Chile.
Miguel Perez is, in his own words, “too new to form a
concrete opinion” about the city of Buffalo. He misses
very much his family in Chile He'is grateful to his sponsors
here that he is no longer in jail there. Short, thin and very
shy, with straight black hair, and dark skin, Miguel’s
innocent appearance belies the fact that he spent over two
and a half years in Chilean jails, during which time he was
tortured and systematical beaten.
His high school student association under the AUende
government was very active in providing cultural and social
services and, to some extent, in attempting to better the
lives of the peasants in the surrounding countryside.
Miguel was in charge of drawing up a list of poorer
students for whom free hot meals would be allocated
during the school day. He worked to buUd a library in
school and solicited books from the school and
community.

“In the municipal library you could read a book for
half an hour but you couldn’t borrow it,” he explained.
The books the student association collected for its
library included contemporary literature of Latin America,
textbooks and philosophy, general humanities and many
pamphlets from different countries. Especially pertinent to
students were accounts of student activities which
recapitulated organizing efforts and struggles in Chile and
elsewhere.
The Allcnde government studied the areas most
suitable for development and provided the logistics of how
many houses could be built. It left the actual planning to
students and their professors. Miguel helped build
prefabricated {houses for the people who occupied slums
by the river on the outskirts of Osorno. His professors
taught the occupants how to read.
“Much of the work was done during Christmas and

he had left school and didn’t know anything, one man

assasinated, the general secretary and the leader of cultural
affairs were arrested. The majority of the faculty was also
arrested and school was dismissed for a month. One month
later, at a meeting of student representatives, a minute of
silence was observed for the dead student president.
“We were immediately informed by our supervisor
that we had taken a dangerous action,” Miguel said. Later
on that day, military police armed with machine guns
appeared in school and arrested the entire senior class.
Hands clasped behind their heads, the students were taken
in a bus, kneeling down below the level of the windows so
that no one could see, to police headquarters. 'The police
put their guns to our heads to scare us,” said Miguel. “We

His arrest came one year later. Four men in civilian
clothes accosted him on the street, asked him for his name
and for information about others. They did not identify
themselves. Miguel answered, “I don’t know” and prepared
to leave, when they said, “You can’t go.” He was placed in
the back of a car, where he said, 'They began to beat me
up, no questions asked.”
‘‘I was arrested because of my acitivities in the past,”
he said.
Miguel was taken to a military barracks by the men,
who said, “Later on tonight, we will talk again.” “I didn’t
know why I was arrested, nor what the charges were,” he
said. “I knew nothing.”

His pants were opened and he felt two wires inserted
next to his testicles. Cold water was thrown on his groin
area. He was told, “Now it’s going to be hard.”
“I was grabbed by my hair and my head was pulled

�4-course load report
is assailed by DeUa
by Joel Mayersohn
Spectrum Staff Writer

The educational merits and practical value of the Faculty Senate
Committee Report on Curricular Structure is being contested by
Student Association (SA) President Dennis Delia. The Report, released
three weeks ago, reaffirms the three contact hour, three credit hour,
course as the standard module for instruction at this University.
Chairman of the Committee Report Robert Springer believes that
there is a misunderstanding generated by the Report. “We are not
endorsing the three hour, three credit module,” he said, “but instead
we feel that it should be used as a standard benchmark, a point of
reference." Springer believes that the University would not be moving
towards the five-course load if it follows the report’s guidelines.
Delia is not pleased with the Report. He said he is not opposed to
its intent, which is to improve the quality of education here, and
agreed with the report’s suggestion of a core structure for
undergraduates which would increase the breadth of a student’s
education at this University. Delia stated, “It would increase the value
of a degree. A degree is like currency. The more valuable it is, the more
you can get with it.”
Too many problems
Delia’s opposition to the Report lies in what he called “the
impracticably of its implementation.” He sighted numerous examples
which would prevent the plan from becoming a success. These included
split campuses, lack of large lecture halls, and the general physical
make-up of the University. Delia asked the Faculty Senate at its
November 1 meeting “to show the students where everything is: the
increased bus budget, the large lecture halls, and the alleviation of
scheduling problems.”
Members of the Committee refuted Delia’s allegations while
answering other questions generated by the Report. Said Springer, “We
know that sheduling is difficult, but we by no means have attempted to
make light of the problem. By coniplete use of all time periods, earlier
course requests and a better awareness by Deans, Provosts, and
Departments many scheduling problems could be alleviated. Travel
time will be reduced as Ridge Lea is vacated and the University shifts
to a two rather than three campus situation.”

Unrealistic charges

Dean of Undergraduate Education and Committee member Walter
Kunz acknowledged that there will be problems. “The Report was
specific in its recommendations, but not in its method of problem
solving,” he claimed. “The way these problems will be worked out
depends on the implementation of the concepts expressed in the
report.” Kunz called the Report “excellent” and claimed that it dealt
with the situation “completely and competently.” The number of
courses each student takes would vary from semester to semester,
according to Springer.

Professor of Political Science and Committee member Clark
Murdock believes that Delia’s comments concerning class space were
“unrealistic.” “They are overstating an increase in course load and the
request for class space,” said Murdock. “We are not envisioning a major
change in either.
“This is not an isolated issue; it’s a basic issue. We are teaching the
same material, assigning the same work, and demanding the same
requirements. The only difference is that our students get one more
credit. This is not justifiable.”
Fiscal pressure
A major point of discussion concerning the Report has been the
influence of the State Division of Budget (DOB). Springer replied to
questioning concerning DOS’s impact stating, “The Report was not
intended to be fiscal. DOB was used as a matter of background. DOB is
on everyone’s mind. To ignore them would be to simplify the problem,
but it would be imprudent to do so.”
Delia agrees that DOB can’t be ignored, but suggests, “We go to
DOB and say ‘you provide use with the funds for a functional campus
and allow us to complete our facilities and we in turn will adopt the
policies set forth by the Report.’”
Delia echoed a common cry of students, “Life here is miserable
due to the transition and it will be worse than miserable if the changes
are to take effect now.”

Library shifts: an analysis

Special Features Editor

The scheduled move of the
Lockwood and Undergraduate
Libraries to the Amherst Campus
beginning this December threatens
to play havoc with the academic
lives of thousands of students
living on and around the Main
Street Campus.
The move will bring the
elimination of a significant
number of quiet study areas as
various University departments
move into space vacated by the
libraries. As a result, students may

“The move will have an affect

�Job hunting?

Varied services offered
by Josh Werber
Spectrum StaffWriter

You may have a good Grade Point Index, but
will you find a job? With a constantly shifting job
market, opportunities in various fields are
periodically opening and closing. Th«£, b.S.
Department of Labor has offered a projection of
employment expectations through the mid 1980’s.
Prospects in engineering are excellent; the field
is constantly broadening. Accounting also offers a
bright outlook, particularly for those with a CPA
certificate. However, it is difficult to generalize
about opportunities in business, for the field is
extremely diversified. The broad outlook seems
promising. Prospective lawyers can expect keen
competition, since large firms are hiring the top
students from the most prestigous schools.
Education, on both the primary and secondary
levels, is difficult for those who are unwilling to
change residence.
Physical and occupational therapy are two fields
with favorable employment outlooks. Future
pharmacists and licensed practical nurses may expect
a plentiful number of positions, whereas registered
nurses will find the going a bit tougher. There will be
the usual abundance of opportunities open to
doctors. In general, the overall employment picture
for college graduates is not as glib as might be
expected after hearing the many tales of
unemployment woes.

dumped her first pile of white stuff on the area, welcoming the official

Co-op sale a disappointment
in raising student interest
by Bruce Latman
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Student response to the Record Co-Op’s all day
sale last Monday was prolific. Approximately $3,700
were rung up in sales and the Co-Op’s inventory wa*
reduced to a mere skeleton of what it was at the
start of the day. However, workers in the Co-Op
believe that the sale, marking the two-year
anniversary of the forced shut down imposed by
Cavages Record Store, was not as successful as the
large volume of records sold on Monday would
indicate.
One of the relatively unsuccessful ventures of
the day was a Co-Op booth in Squire Hall Center
Lounge set up in conjunction with the sale. The
purpose of the sale, according to Co-Op workers,
“was to raise student consciousness about the issues
surrounding the continued existence of the Co-Op.”
As it turned wit, students flocked to the Co-Op to
buy albums, but few were interested enough to
speak with the representatives at the booth. This was
a source of considerable disappointment for Co-Op
workers, who view its function as more than just
providing students with inexpensive record albums.

student service.
-

Shutdown in 1975
The Co-Op was originally shut down on
November 7, 1975 by Vice President for Finance
and Management, Edward Doty, because of a lawsuit
filed by Carl Cgvage, who contended that the Co-Op
was competing unfairly with the Cavage Record
/Store in University Plaza.
One month later. University President Robert
Ketter overruled Doty’s decision and allowed the
Co-Op to re-open under new guidelines: it was
limited to, a gross sale of $10,000 per month, an
inventory of $22,000, and monthly income
statements had to be issued to Ketter and the
Director of Norton (now Squire) Hall, James Gruber.

Aside from the on-campus interviews, UPACG
offers many other career oriented services. Helping
students in the career decision making process is the
office’s initial objective. In the past year, the Office
has been reaching out to freshmen and sophomores
through seminars, workshops, and individual
inspire
order to
in

career
consideration.
Once a student has arrived at a career decision
and is ready to make attempts at employment or
graduate school applications, the UPACG can
provide a varied form of assistance, including a
bi-monthly bulletin containing information on
professional tests, the on-campus interviews,
workshops, and seminars. UPACG also assists in the
development of resumes, which the office will
forward to graduate schools and potential employers
upon request.
Perhaps one of the most valuable assets of the
UPACG is the Career-Occupational Reading Rooms.
Located at 16 Capen Hall on the Amherst Campus
and 3 Hayes C on the Main Street Campus, the
reading rooms provide extensive collections of
occupational literature and resources, of use to
students with both sketchy and firm career plans.
Director of the UPACG, E.J. Martell, said that
the Office’s chief preoccupation is to aid in job
hunting strategies. Whether the student is decided or
undecided as to his or her eventual career, Martell
felt a good job searching strategy will yield positive
results for all students, regardless of career choice.
That ‘strategy’ he observed pertains to everything
from poise in interviews to employment geographies.
“By taking advantage of the UPACG services and
individual counseling, the UB student will increase
his or her chances of getting a job,” Martell said.

The inventory and sales ceiling are preventing the
Co-Op from operating to its full capacity.
One questions remains to be answered in light of
the sale. Are students concerned about cheap records
or about the Co-Op status? “It’s apparent that

students are not concerned with retaining their
services, which the Co-Op is one of many,” said
Co-Op worker Larry Schwartz. “It’s the Domino
Theory,” he continued. “When one falls, the rest
fall.” Schwartz elaborated further, proposing that
the Bookstore, campus films, and future rock
concerts in the proposed field house on the Amherst
Campus all are threatened by the outcome of the
Cavage lawsuit.
Poor response
Schwartz explained the poor response to the
first floor booth, saying, “We were set too far back
from the main flow. It was a combination of poor
visibility and general student apathy.” Schwartz
spoke of the need to educate students to the reality
of losing student services. “Students have to realize
that it’s just not records, but a)l of student services,"
he said. “Whether they use the Record Co-Op as a
service is irrelevant, for we must try to retain all of
our services with the Co-Op’s existence as a
forefunner.”
Docs student response to the Monday’s
successful sale warrant lifting the ceiling? Co-Op
spokesperson Lisa Nord replied, “Yes, it does,
because we did nine, ten times our daily average (of
album sales).’’ Doty and Assistant to the President
Ron Stein could not be reached for comment.
Co-Op workers expressed dissatisfaction with an
inability to reach the students. They explained that
the Co-Op is unable to advertise in The Spectrum or
any other campus publication, and they are not
permitted to post any signs other than on their own
door. Because of this inability to express their
position, the Co-Op members are relying on input
during Co-Op hours and welcome any discussion by
interested students.

PIRG’s in all states are

computation of the Building

analogous to the miles-per-gallon

number of units of heat (BTU’S)
used in one year in a particular
building to the total usable square
footage of the same building. The

ruling in the Quinlan case poses
the threat of indiscriminate killing

case for "voluntary Euthanasia is

become: how well does TV depict real violence? Gantz
says if one were to sum up all the actual homicides and
compare them to those on television, the latter would be
greater. In a 1964 report, there were 1,215 incidences of
violence on television in the course of one week, and
although in the last few years it has levelled off, today the
count is still high.
George Gerbner, Dean of the Anenberg School of
Communications at the University of Pennsylvania, has
gathered data on TV violence for nearly 10 years and is
publishing it in a "Violence Profile.” To do this, he had to
set limitations, specifically defining what violence is. This
alone is a topic that has been argued. Gerbner’s definition
of violence is “an overt expression of physical force against
one’s will, or pain of being hurt or killed, or actual hurting
or killing.” According to this definition, cartoons are the
most violent of all programming. Ratings are based on data
fed to a computer consisting of a “violence index,” which

number of weapons and participants involved, and their
age, race, sex, and marital status.

ratings were Baretta and Stanley and Hutch.
Networks are definitely feeling the public pressure and
have been cutting back on the amount of violence
Producers have limited Baretta to two violent acts per
show, but star Robert Blake says that violence is needed to
express what he wants to say. The violence that will most
likely remain on TV in the future will be those incidents
that are pertinent to the story in some way.

�Best Billy Joel seats
go to music personnel

LIVE MUSIC

by Lee Scott Perres
Spectrum

7 nights a week!!

Staff Writer

Fifty of the best seats for the November 30 Billy Joel Concert at
the Century Theater were reserved by the University Union Activities
Board (UUAB) for their own personnel.
In a related controversy, Millard Fillmore College students were
angered after waiting in line for hours and being refused the
opportunity to buy student priced tickets at the Sub-Board ticket
office. The MFC government is not a member of Sub-Board, the
student corporation. Thus, night students are not entitled to any
discounts afforded to member governments’ constituents.
According to UUAB Music Committee Chairman, Richard Saltus,
the fifty tickets, located in the orchestra pit area, “Were held for
students on the Committee who attended meetings, ran errands, put up
posters, and many other necessary activities as a fringe benefit for
working and not getting paid.” Saltus stressed that, “Music Committee
personnel paid the same amount for their tickets as did other
students.”

Sold early
When asked why UUAB bought 500 tickets for the highly popular
Joel, UUAB Division Director, Steve Penna, explained, “They were
bought so that students could get the best tickets available at a
discount rate. We sold them a day early to allow our students the
possibility of still getting good seats in the event that they were sold
out at Squire Ticket Office.”
However, the tickets for Music Committee members were in the
orchestra pit, generally considered to be the best seats in the theater,
while the remaining tickets were not. Sub-Board Treasurer, Dennis
Black, was perturbed of the incident; “1 was upset at the fact that the
tickets were not distributed proportionally throughout the theatre. It
was a mistake that will never happen again,” Black said. “From this
point on, tickets will be limited to two per member and the names of
the people having tickets held, the location of the tickets, and the
number of tickets must be submitted to me in advance.” Black believed
that the number held was excessive. “From now on,” he said, ’’they
will not be orchestra pit tickets, and there will not be fifty held.” As
far as the holding of the tickets goes. Black said, “It is a good way of
paying people back for their hard work. We don’t pay their way, we
just insure that they will get tickets.”

MFC problefn
In response to the MFC complaints, Black explained, “Sub-Board
offered these $8.50 tickets at $8.00 to all Sub-Board member students,
which is a $1.00 savings because there is no service charge for these
tickets. Anywhere else, the same tickets would have cost $9.00.”
The Dental School and the MFC Student Association are not
members of Sub-Board and, therefore, are not entitled to any of the
discounts offered to member students. Members of Sub-Board are the
undergraduates, graduates, and Law School and Medical School
students. Black stated, in reference to MFC, “They give no allocation
to Sub-Board so they are not programming members.”
As to what will happen in the future, Saltus said, “It was a mistake
as far as the location of the tickets was concerned, but there was no
policy regarding UUAB and MFC due to the fact that Sub-Board has
just taken over control of the ticket office from The Faculty Student
Association and, as of yet, there is no formal manager.”

Trees at Amherst
dying slow deaths
Suspicions have arisen recently
that the Amherst Campus is not
designed for people. Now it
appears that it isn’t a very good
place for trees, either.
“More than 50 trees have had
to be replaced around the Ellicott

To the Editor.
This letter is being written after I have changed
feelings toward the P.LO,
I thought that the P.L.O. might have a point
that we Israelis couldn’t understand. Maybe Yassir
Arafat could be the Palestinian representative in
Geneva, therefore, my country (ISRAEL) should
accept the P.L.O. as the Palestinian representative.
While serving in the army, I fought for what I
believed was right. I fought to protect my country.
As a soldier, I fought only against other soldiers,
never against unarmed citizens.
I always thought that it was imperitive to help
the Palestinians regain their land. I do believe they
have this right.
I no longer believe that the representative for
these refugees is the P.L.O. How can an organization
which claims to have the interests of a group of
non-military citizens in mind, wage an attack on
other non-military citizens?
Can the gaining of a homeland for their cause be
gotten at the expense of other innocent people?
The P.L.O.’s war has not been waged against the
Israeli' army, but against the innocent people
connected with my country. This was well
demonstrated in 1972 when Itrmeli athletes were
murdered in cold blood in Munich, in Lod Airport
when Japanese from the red army were sent to kill as
many Itraeli citizens as possible, and in their last
famous attempt, the incident in Entebbe 1976 when
they hijacked a plane, holding every Jew hostage.
They released the non-Jews. This is more than
slightly reminiscent of Hitler’s ways of selection.
The P.L.O.’s ways of sending messages, bombs
in markets, schools, and houses of worship, is
anything but an attack on military bases.
I find their accusations of terrorism towards
Israeli soldiers might be better Justified if they were
geared towards themselves.
Since the cease-fire in Leban non, the Israeli
army had withdrawn from this area in order to
regain the peace. The cease-fire was broken by the
P.L.O., who this week attacked an Israeli border
city. They then retreated to a refugee camp to avoid
retaliation. This is their usual technique.
The tactics of the P.L.O. are not an acceptable
way of presenting the problems of Palestinian
refugees. Israel .will not recognize these people under
any circumstances. However, any delegation which
actually represents the Palestinian refugees, will be
more than welcome to aid in the solution of this
problem. Any response to this letter will be
�^welcome.

Bitty Joel manipulation
To the Editor.

Before sunrise Tuesday morning, approximately

twenty people stood eagerly in front of the chained
doors of Squire Hall awaiting admittance in order to
purchase the best available tickets to the Billy Joel
concert which will be held November 30. As the
hours past, the line grew meanderingly through the

Haas Lounge, while Billy’s music played to the tune
of enthused fans, vividly imagining a concert
superior to that of last year’s phenomenal
performance.

Meanwhile, behind the closed doors of the
Squire Ticket Office, UUAB officials were dividing
up the majority of choice seats potentially available
for sale to the weary yet dedicated fans, some of

whom stood in line for seven hours.
The basic point of the aforementioned events is
to express our downright dissatisfaction with the
manipulation by UUAB officials to satisfy their own
personal desire to hoard good seats, when, in

Most people will run out of ink before their

the last page and sign their name. A few misguided

a surplus and abruptly stop. A very few will keep
writing over pages never meant for them, about lands
they never traveled, in times they never lived,
deceiving all the world in finely crafted calligraphy.
And it’s these very few that will always leave

By calling one of their group a ‘Jewish Arab,’

they are as specious as their words.

Picture yourself boarding a train. If you claim a
seat facing the train’s front, you can see where
you’re going. If you claim a seat facing the train’s
rear, you can see where you’ve been. As my career as
a writer steams along, I’ve been switching seats a lot.
And the view from a back-facing seat has always
seemed a’ lot clearer, easier to observe and.
ultimately, easier to write about. The past, history
(specifically the sixties), are easy prey for two-bit
college columnists. The past, because we recall best

essence, members of the group they are obliged to
serve should have been afforded the opportunity to
receive the seats they have been denied. Moreover,
local campus scuttlebutt has it that approximately
ninety of the best tickets were dispersed among
employees of UUAB. We can't seem to rationalize
the fact that paid employees arc given additional
compensation when the members of the student
body themselves pay a mandatory fee to the tune of
$67 to pay their stipend positions.
The student employees have done a fine job at
all past UUAB functions, however, there is little
reason for student employees to dominate the first

So, as it turns out, this column is an amusement
park mirror image of its author, distorted, laughable,
thin and fat in the wrong places. It has to be that
way. If it wasn’t, you’d fall asleep reading it. I have
to admit, I enjoy twisting myself around in print,
and watching people’s faces for a reaction: Every
once in a while, I get the urge to spill the beans, and
write in my own handwriting rather than imitating
this pseudo-intellectual scrawl. So what I’m saying is,
I’ve been forging so many bad checks that everyone
thinks I’m rich. Well, not everyone.
What I’m revealing has more to do with this
column’s path than its destination. It’s the way I’m
getting there that is trickery, not where I’m going.
Whatever portraits I’ve painted were my own, but

the brush strokes were stolen from an artist
infinitely more gifted than I.

The Spectrum has shown just what it really
knows about the City of Buffalo, the people who
live, work, and pay taxes here, and its politics;
absolutely NOTHING! The editorial “Dawn of Eve”
made that perfectly clear. Let that be a lesson to
you, never predict the winner in a contest which you
know very little about. It is obvious you listened to
only one side’s predictions.
Allow me to use the structure of your editorial
for a moment:
At this time, Jimmy Griffin has won the
election and he is carrying in a new era of progressive
change into the office of mayor, the likes of which
Buffalo has never seen before. He is the first minor
party candidate to win the office of mayor. He will
fight the “boss machine.” Jimmy Griffin
has made
known that Joe Crangle will play no part in his
administration. Joe Crangle supported Eve for
mayor.

Perhaps for the first time in a long time,
working people of Buffalo can literally dance in the
streets because our man, a man we can really trust
and fcxpect action from, a man who finds his
roots in
the working class (proletariat, as Karl Marx
would
say) 90immunity is Mayor. Also, Ultra bleading heart
liberals will be forced to admit that a regular hard
working Joe (or should I say ‘Jim’) can take care of
Buffalo’s business and lead this city out of ruin.
You went on to say that if Eve does not bridge
this gap of the divisions of ethnic lines in this city, it

. white elected officials and their
will be because
constituents will not support his programs and City
Hall will become the scene of a political race war.” I
did not know that you had a crystal ball and that
Eve’s programs are all wonderful and if they do not
work it would be because of the white people. Now
that Jimmy Griffin has won, I believe then, that the
shoe is on the other foot.
You were right about race and religion being
influential in American politics. Jimmy Griffin

A huge commercial complex on the Amherst Campus
may
stimulate that area’s economy, but we at this University should stop
and think for a minute
at whose expense is the economy being
stimulated? Answer: at the students’ expense. It’s not the fault
of
the specific commercial enterprises, they are what they
are
intrinsically. In order to derive profits from business, prices must be
jacked up way over cost. The students who buy pay the price
and
take the loss.
The complex as currently envisioned will do nothing to further
the educational aims of this University. Education is, at least it
should be, the primary goal of this school.
At our fingertips is an incredible opportunity to better the
quality of education for every interested student.

To the Editor.

The plans for Parcel B (the proposed commercial mall at the
Amherst Campus) as stated in The Spectrum, November 9, 1977,
appall me, I cannot imagine the justification for placing
a
commercial development on a university campus. It’s done
elsewhere, of course, but that hardly means we have to follow
suit.
Commercial establishments work for profit first and foremost!

received 184 votes in the Masten District. As for the
money part, Jimmy Griffin spent the least compared
to the other major (Eve, Phelan, and Foschio
[in
primary]) candidates. Jimmy Griffin set a $500
limit
on campaign contributions, whereas Eve
received
several in excess of $2,000, some of which were
made by people out in Amherst.
This brings us to another point: Jimmy Griffin
had no big time politicians coming
in from out of
town to endorse him. Liberals like
Mondale,
Costanza, and Carey could not intimidate the voters.
It was made known how easy it would be to get
federal and state money (which Buffalo is rightfully
entitled to, no matter who is mayor) if, and only if,
(as if to literally buy votes) Arthur Eve
would be
mayor.

The people of the City of Buffalo have spoken.
We do not want a city income tax. We do
not want
New York City politics here in our city (note
how
the $500 million bond issue was defeated
as if to tell
Governor Carey we don’t like him or his spending).
We do not need outsiders telling us who to vote for.
I am sure that the bleeding heart liberals

will

now call Buffalo voters prejudiced because Eve was
not elected. Well, note how we (myself included)
voted in George K. Arthur and Herb Bellamy to the

councilman-at-large positions.
If you want to get a candidate elected, you need
the people who campaign for him to be identifiable
with the citizenry. How can a Chevy employee living
in Riverside, a steel worker living in South Park, or a
construction worker living on the West Side identify
with Carey &amp; Co.? They cannot, but they can
identify with a railroad employee living in South
Buffalo!
Jimmy Griffin will be mayor for at least four
years. Arthur Eve will continue to do well in the
State Assembly. And, in January, with a new
Common Council, the City of Buffalo will become a
better place to live.

classroom knowledge would be a much more realistic combination.
Proper, thorough planning, careful supervision by
qualified
faculty and if necessary, outside “experts” and participating
incentives for students including credit and financial
aid could make
it work.

Economics students could prepare detailed analyses of the

complications that would arise
from a student-run bank, so I won’t suggest that. It

However, I’ll settle for student tellers and clerks.)
Nutrition students could fulfill requirements for courses by

CAC —time and compassion
_

The Community Action Corps
(CAC) is a student run volunteer
organization that works in the
Buffalo community and is always
in need of volunteers.
CAC is broken down into eight
areas: Child Care, Drugs &amp; Youth,
Education, Health Care, Legal &amp;
Welfare, Older Adults, Recreation,
and Social Action. Each area has a
Coordinator or Co-coordinator
whose responsibilities are to place
his or her volunteers and check on
the progress of programs in the
area.
The major

great. Now we have to try and
build our numbers.”

Forms not filled
She also attributed the lack of
volunteers to the volunteers
themselves. “Our figures are not
complete because past volunteers
who are still working have not
filled out volunteer forms,” she
said. The volunteer form contains
information regarding where the
student lives and what area they
work with.
Bernstein was also concerned
about the motives of some of the
volunteers. “Teachers of health
related classes are now requiring
students to work up to 25 hours
of volunteer time. Many of these
students join CAC then drop out
of our programs after fulfilling
their requirement, not realizing
they are harming the agency they
are working at. These volunteers
are truly needed and the drop out
rate creates hardships that are
difficult to overcome. Dedicated
volunteers are different. They
participate actively in their
projects, think of new ideas all of
the time. These are the people we
need more of,” Bernstein added.
Visible social group
Director Mark Szupillo has
positive ideas to alleviate these
problems. As he sees it, “Part of
the problem is visibility. We are
now working very hard to increase
our visibility to the student body.
A lot of people see CAC and say,
'What is cack?’ Still other students
hold that CAC volunteers are
do-gooders. We are a club of
students working toward positive
social change.”
Szupillo hopes students will
realize that CAC is a social group.
“Here is a place where students
could do something and have a
good time in the process, instead
of sitting on their behinds,” he
said.
“The volunteers are out there,
now we have to show them that
here,”
we

Szupillo
commented. “We will take anyone
interested in giving some time and

the Creative Learning Projects, all
it takes is four hours a week to
give inner city children some help
their
school
in
projects.
Volunteers get off campus and get
to meet many other students with
similar interests and at the same
time help these children realize a
promising school career, and not
one of dismal failures. You can
see
the excitement on the
children’s faces.”
Optimistic future
Students who do volunteer
work do not have to spend any
money being a volunteer. “We
reimburse students for travel
expenses and any other expenses
necessary to their program,”
Szupillo said. ‘The only thing a
volunteer spends is their time.”
CAC members are very
about
the
optimistic
organization’s future. “We have
outlined our minor problems, and
we are now working toward
implementing the solutions,”
Szupillo said. “It is just a matter
of a few weeks, and we will be
right on target.”

What is Citizen’s Band (CB) radio and why is it so
popular today?

The citizen’s band radio craze steins from publicity
the radios received during the truckers’ strike of 1974.
Concern about the fuel shortage then was at its peak. Lines
to purchase gasoline were of unbelievable length, and it
became increasingly difficult to find gas stations that had
fuel. Also, the 55-mile “double nickels” per hour speed
limit was put into effect. This lower limit and difficulty
finding fuel cost the truckers time and money. By using
the CB, truckers were able to avoid possible “speed traps”
and traffic tie-ups saving precious time.
-

Originally for emergency

Truckers were also able to call ahead to see if there
was a gas station up the road. During the strike, the
truckers attempted to organize themselves through the CB.
Originally, the government made provisions to
establish 23 frequencies for CB use. Recently, the number
of frequencies has been increased to 40, and the Federal
Communications Commission (FCC) plans to increase the
number to 100, possible 115, to reduce the amount of
overcrowding on the existing channels, foreseen if the
demand continues to grow.
At present, because of CB popularity, broadcasting
can be a problem. Some officials worry that the CB will

emergencies, etc. Other people, however, feel that CB’s are
still effective for two-way communication, even though
many use the CB only for a hobby.
Many state police officials advocate the use of CB
radios to help stranded motorists or to quickly report to
the scene of an accident. Many patrol cats are equipped
with CB’s to monitor channel 9, used for emergencies
only.
i
Several volunteer organizations have formed to
monitor CB channels. One of the largest organizations.
Radio Emergency Associated Citizens Teams, has over
70,000 members nationwide. With the use and monitoring
of channel 9, emergency response time can be drastically

Fourteenth Amendment dted
Davey points out that the
Fourteenth Amendment protects
from loss of liberty of life by
legislation. He claims a clear loss
pf liberty and also a loss of life,
based on the statistics.
He concludes
that under
Section One of the Fourteenth
'1 Amendment, every person is

Law enforcement agencies have stated that a large
number of sets are being stolen. University Police reports
that quite a few CB’s were stolen from cars parked on
campus in recent years.
In order to operate a CB legally, it is necessary to

explained.

Energy efficiency was not
incorporated into the design of
the Amherst Campus, according
to David Stieglitz, President of
Environmental Design Associates.
His firm has worked with energy
for the past ten years, designed
the new Channel 7 alternative
energy building, and analyzed the
structure of the buildings on the
Amherst Campus.

“Individual buildings

They had the right ideas in the
firdt place but the political powers
changed that. They decided to
make
it
an
architectural
showpiece. Energy efficiency was
a virtually zero concern in the
master plan for Amherst.”
Both Ellicott and Governors
have single paned windows and
large total surface area allowing
heat to escape easily. The
insulation is poor and the
automatic thermostats are so near
the windows that an interesting

is created, according to
Schwartz. If a window is opened,
the heat goes up. Excess heat
creates the need to open more
windows as the temperature rises
still further. This wasteful cycle
could have been prevented,
Schwartz claimed, by situating die
thermostats in the center of the
rooms where they could more
accurately measure overall room

Stieglitz noted

that if the

The University should have
been the party responsible for the

according to Naffky. “This is
something that the University

said. “The initial cost investment

Naffky. “Right now, we’re feeling

Problems like these within the

Students and faculty
snarling computers
Several students and faculty are avoiding proper programming
procedure while using University computers causing the possibility
of problems in the system, according to Director of University
Computing Sciences, Walter M. Macintyre.
These persons have been avoiding the Indiana Archiving Utility,
which keeps the magnetic discs cleared of unnecessary and unused
programs. The University Computer, a new Cyber 173, stores
programs on magnetic discs. When the discs become full, the
archiving system removes large or seldomly used programs from the
discs and places them on magnetic tapes for storage.
“At the moment, there is not much on the discs since we have
a new computer with a lot of storage,” Macintyre said. “In the end
disc storage would fill and we could buy more discs, but they are
very, very expensive.”
Macintyre insisted that students who think that nothing -will
come of avoiding the archiving system are mistaken. A letter from
Macintyre attached to all programs from the computer states
“Anyone avoiding the archiving system or locking up a terminal
port will be logged off the computer (not allowed to use the
computer) and request for disciplinary action will follow.”
Macintyre said, “The reason I am so hard nosed is because if
everyone evaded the archiving system for a few weeks, it would
hardly be noticed. If, however, we reach a point in the future, say
by the end of the academic year, the disc would fill. Then people
conforming to the rules would have their programs archived much
more often. It would work hardships on someone else and that is
anti-social.”

It s depressing
The morale of the Psychology department is
low, said one professor and there is more talk of
leaving among faculty members than ever before. At
least one faculty member is presently looking for
another job, primarily because of the bad conditions
and low expectations for their improvement.
Psychology professor Jack Meacham feels that
the Ridge Lea location has clearly hurt the quality of
the department. “As soon as prospective faculty
members see the campus, you lose them,” he said,
adding that “no one wants to enter into the present
situation.”
“The quality of university life has been very
much degraded this term relative to previous terms
on the Ridge Lea campus,” Meacham stated firmly.
“First, there are very few students around to talk
with between classes. Students are an important part
of contact with reality for many faculty members.
“Second, one of the interesting aspects of being
a faculty member is stimulating interaction with
colleagues in the other social sciences. But the other
social sciences are no longer on this campus. Third,
primarily the branch of the
the support services
library that was here, and the cafeteria with the
adjoining student lounge r- are no longer here.”
Meacham continued, “the existing mini-cafeteria is
depressing and closes at 1:30 p.m. There is simply no
place left on this campus for people to get together
and talk. It’s depressing.”
Levy went to the office of Academic Affairs
four or five months ago to explain the Psychology
Department’s predicament. Representatives of Vice
President Ronald F Bunn said it would be looked
into. At a more recent meeting, Bunn showed Levy
what had come of this work. All Amherst locations
were ruled out, since this would mean displacing
another department. A Main Street move would
bring advantages of food, libraries and colleagues.
However, the main undergraduate core is to be at
Amherst, so a move to Main Street would still

inevitable fate and departure,
leaving students proverbially “out
in the cold.”
Vasi concluded that, “The
spaces that the Library has
control over are filled up and if
more space is necessary, pressure
should be put on Academic
Affairs and Facility Planning.”
Telfer, when informed of Vasi’s
comment, said, “Everybody likes
to pass the buck.”
Well, the buck must stop
somewhere, and in this case it’s
being stopped at the expense of

Department so low on the University’s list of
priorities? Ridge Lea doesn’t feel or look like a
university. When are we getting out of here?”

According

to Staff

Associate of Facilities
Planning John Warren, Ridge Lea was leased from
Merit Corporations in 1966. When fully occupied
sometime after 196T, it consisted of 14 buildings,
one of which is a small maintenance budding. The
annual rental fee is approximately $1,350,000.
Roughly $10.8 million has been spent on rental fees
since 1966, he estimated. This year the rent will be
approximately $].] million and with the continued
phasing-out of the campus, will decrease to
approximately $575,000 annually. Ridge Lea, once
slated to be a shopping center and later turned into
an interim campus, was only to be rented for five
years. “At the time it offered a solution to a difficult
problem of a university expanding more rapidly than
normal campus construction procedure would
permit,” Warren said. Because of die state fiscal
crisis and the freezing of the bond market, the
money was not available for construction. Thus,
Ridge Lea is still being rented JO years later and its
complete shut-down is not forseen much before
1982.
The four buildings to remain at Ridge Lea house
the departments considered the most difficult to
relocate: the Computing Center (4250), Electrical,
some Civil, and some Chemical Engineering (4232),
Geology (4240), Statistical Science Lab, Survey
Research Center and Psychology (4230).

The Student Directory is expected to be made available to the
University community either late this week or early next week,
according to District Sales Manager of University Directories, Rick
Alperton.
Last year, the Directory came out in late October, and Alperton
hoped that “this year’s Directory would come out atabout the same
time,” he said. “It has spent the last six weeks at the printers, when it
should have taken just three weeks to be printed.” Currently,
University Directories has set no completion date. Merchants were told
that it would be out by Thanksgiving, at the latest, Alperton said.
The Student Directory is a publication of names, addresses, and
phone numbers of students attending this University. Also included are
listings of the organizations on campus and a “yellow page” section of

approximately 150 different local merchants who have been solicited
for advertisements.
In charge of publication of the Directory is University
Publications, a subsidiary of Sub-Board. This company was founded
two years ago by former University student, Mark Teitlebaum.
Through the course of publication this year, over fifty people have
been employed and all, but one, are students at this University. Their
salaries are paid for out of revenues from the advertisements of the
local merchants, which also provides the funding for the entire
publication. Work on the directory started in April of this year.
Any student registered will have his name included in the
Directory because student names are taken directly from the University
registration lists, according to Alperton. “Students were giveil the
chance early this semester to update any information that might have
happened to be incorrect, such as address or phone number.”
The Directory will be distributed in various buildings on campus,
including the- dormitories and major halls where “the most student
traffic is centered,” according to Alperton. Students are asked to pick
up just one copy per person, to ensure that everyone obtains one.

Judge limits .TT™"
great deal or money." bullet insisted that his intent in purchasing the
News was not to monopolize the Buffalo market, and that in making
the shift to Sundays and formulating the introductory offer, he fully
expected the continued survival of the competing Courier.
Brieant apparently felt that Buffet’s purchase of the News for S33
million could not be economically justified unless it expected to lead
to monopoly control.
it seems the acquisition of the Evening
News for this price, all in cash, and in this manner, makes no economic
sense,” he wrote. Brieant contended that if Buffet did not expect to
wield the power of a newspaper monopoly, then the News would have
to double or triple its earnings in order to justify the $33 million price
n
“Can the forseeable future income of the Evening News, while the
Courier yet lives, justify an investment of $33 million?” the judge
asked rhetorically, in his ruling.
“Haply, a Western New York jury will not think so,” he
..

-

answered.
Hence, though he did not succinctly spell it out in his ruling,
Brieant appeared convinced that Buffet fully expected to run the
Courier out of business when he purchased the News for $33 million.
“The deal was made,’* the Judge noted, “without inspecting the
physical plant or conferring with the personnel who would continue
the operations for the new owner.” Brieant contrasted this
informational void with Buffet’s full knowledge of the relative financial
positions of the two papers, and his “acute awareness” of the economic
value of a newspaper monopoly. Buffet had earlier testified that
Other departments unhappy
monopoly papers are generally worth three times their annual gross
Walter MacIntyre, director of the Computing revenues.”

Ce 'ter, explained that this department will not be
affected tremendously because there are four
satellite terminals on the other two campuses, with
trained professional consultants and student
assistants. Even before he knew that Ridge Lea was
to be evacuated, MacIntyre’s major priority was to
improve these satellite sites.
Chester C. Langway, chairman of the Geology
Department, wants it to remain at Ridge Lea until
permanent residence at Amherst has been obtained.
During summer, 1975, the Geology department
moved from the Bell Plant facility because of a
serious drop ,in enrollment caused by its isolated
location. It took a year to set up, and department
officials don’t want to move first to another
temporary location and then to Amherst, said
Lang way. “I’m sorry that the rest of the people are
leaving,” he commented. “Coming to Ridge Lea was
great, the thought of moving again is dismal.”
Geology’s enrollment has increased because of
the move to the then more active campus. However,
geology professor Charles Cazeau felt that isolation
at Ridge Lea may cause another drop in enrollment.
Cazeau requested a small laboratory at Amherst
so that students woqld not have to go to Ridge Lea.
“I made over twenty phone calls. 1 wrote letters and
I got no response to my request,” he related. “When
I went to the administrators they told me Facilities
Planning had a space they could use at their
discretion. Facilities Planning told me that it was a&lt;
myth, and that Physics and Biology had space. They
said they didn’t, but would look into it Well, they
looked as far as their armpits and that was it. I never
heard from them. The loser is the student, as usual.”

priority list. Priorities have since shifted to areas
such as Law, Biology, Pharmacy and English.
Psychology is now ranked so low, that members of
the department are faced with the sobering thought
that the new building may not be completed for
another 10 to IS years. Administrative officials here
cannot speculate on target dates, given the
precarious state of Amherst Campus construction
funds. The department was not even mentioned in
the State lUmdly Trustees priority listing.

Based on hearing testimony, Brieant concluded that the five week
introductory period coincided with the heaviest advertising
concentration of the year, the holiday season, when newspapers make
up losses Incurred during slower months. Taken in this context, he
termed the News' five week plan “clearly unreasonable.” “It would
seem,” the Judge wrote, “that one or two free samplings would
suffice.” He declared the “true purpose” of the five week plan to be
“monopolistic.”
The Judge appeared to have no doubts that the News, if left
unregulated, would eliminate the Courier from competition. After a
briefrecital of the Courier's shaky financial status. Brieant (wrote: “It is
clear that the fall and winter months make the difference between
profit and loss. No business can continue at a loss.” The Judge hinted
that eliminating the Courier would not be a difficult task for the News
under any circumstances: “The entire arsenal of anti-competitive tricks
and devices need not be unlimbered to extinguish the

Thus the Judge felt that the Courier had indeed, shown that a
“dangerous probability” exists that the News’ actions would lead to a

monopoly.
yjL,
H response to other portions of the Courier suit, Brieant
concluded that the News had not published “disparaging remarks”
about the Courier. He ordered the News to inform its employees that it
was not the Newi policy to offer jobs to Courier employees. The
Courier had complained that the News was attempting to lure
paperboys and advertising and circulation employees away by telling
them their paper would soon be going out of business. Testimony
concerning this claim showed that News management neither knew of,
nor ordered such action.

55,752 votes, giving him 42
percent of the votes cast in
Buffalo
A smiling Griffin arrived at the
Peace Bridge Exhibition Center to
greet his supporters soon after the
9 p.m. closing of the polls.
Returns flooded in causing people
to press closer to the platform
where Griffin stood waving and
nodding
as the votes were
tabulated. Anticipation in the
crowd ran high as the first district
returns posted showed Griffin
holding close to 50 percent of the
vote. Cheers filled the dosely
packed, smoke-filled room as each
victory was announced.
Luck of the Irish
Griffin supporters felt the
victory early. Comments from the
pr e d o mina t e 1y-green-apparelled
crowd included, “It’s only a

Albany.

'

Seeingrecords
“All you have to do is look at
our records in Albany,” he said,
“and what little money we’ve
used on the campaign, we’ve used

wisely.”
The election of Griffin to the
post of Mayor of Buffalo means
that his longtime foe, Democratic
Chairman of Erie County, Joseph
Crangle, will have a rough fight
for his already avowed re-election
bid as chairman. Griffin does not
predict the outcome of that
-i
election.
“We’ll have to see what
happens when he runs again,” he
said.
Griffin announced his victory
at 12:36 a.m. He thanked his
supporters for waiting so long,
but, he said, “I want to make sure
what we’re saying hare tonight
will stick.” He related, “We have
fought, a good fight... and have
kept the faith.”
Griffin thanked the people
who supported him, specifically
pointing to the work of Alfrieda

“and we’re going to make it

Spring target date

New ID cards slated to

include

by Danny Parker
Campus Editor

New permanent ID cards should be reissued by
the start of the spring semester containing signature

and birthdate, according to an Ad Hoc ID Card
Committee report. The Committee, comprised of
students and administrators, estimated it will cost
the University approximately $17,000 to issue new
cards. The report is currently in Executive Vice
President Albert Somit’s office awaiting final
approval.

The Committee unanimously approved the
inclusion of a signature on the card. Date of birth,
“which most clearly involves our undergraduate
population who critically need proof of age for
on-campus activities,” according to the report, will
be an optional inclusion at the students’ request.
University Police have volunteered to perform the
validation function of birthdates when ID’s are
issued.
According to Charles Brunskill, the University
Police representative on the Committee, “Students
requesting date of birth will have to establish their
birthdates through legally acceptable documents
such as a driver’s license or birth certificate. It is a
serious addition in that we are legitimizing a
document. I would also like to set up a booth at the
ID line to validate birthdates, where we already issue
parking permits.”
More added
The Committee also voted to identify
professional school students by constituency.
Specifically, “Instead of issuing ‘Pro,’ the card will
show Med., Dent., or Law." Grad, DUE and MFC arc
already identified on the old ID.
Another new inclusion on the back of the card
should be that of important student life telephone
numbers, according to the Report. Telephone
numbers of Sunshine House, Student Association,
Graduate Student Association, University Police,
Law School Government, and Millard Fillmore
College Student Association, arc recommended to be
added.

The report’s final addition for the card is that
should be allocated for a Student
Elections/Activities sticker. This recommendation
space

birthdate, signature

stems from the Committee’s belief that “the ID card
should not be mutilated by punching holes into it.”

Remove info
Some deletions from the current ID will also be
made, according to the Report. The Housing sticker
space and the Food Service sticker space are among
the deletions. The Report stated, “Food Service
sticker space is recommended to be removed as they
presently
(Food
Service)
issue
their own
identification for board contract”
Somit termed the Report quite good, but said,
“The critical question is the practical problem of
implementation. We are studying how rapidly we
could issue a new card, and we are examining the
spring semester target date.” The Report emphasizes
stating, “Due
the problems of
to time constraints, putting the card out for bids
could jeopardize its timely implementation.”
The Committee did entertain discussion on the
permanent nature of the card. “It was pointed out
some controversy could exist f6r those students
whose name changed while enrolled. A majority of
the Committee felt that as long as the student
followed the proper procedures of filing a name
change at A&amp;R (Admissions and Records), the
University should incur the cost of providing a new
ID," according to the Report.
Constant monitoring
Other discussion of a long-term card included
the problem of libraries identifying students. The
Committee discussed the feasibility of using
computer bar-codes for purposes in addition to
Library use. According to the Report, “The
Committee was unable to seek the technical advice
needed to learn whether current computer hardware
would be programmed for such usage.”
The final recommendation by the Committee is
that “the Committee members be advised of any
content or design changes necessitated through
stipulations
either
contract
or production
problems.” The Report stated, “Because of both the
widespread publicity the current ID card received,
and our extensive efforts at involving student input,
we feel obliged to monitor the card’s situation from
the time it is approved by your (Somit’s) office to its
issurance.”

to cl eck medic incom
Supplemental incomes of teaching physicians at this University
may be regulated by the State Audit and Control Department
because of the apparent lax control of these outside earnings by
officials here.
According to Vice President of Health Sciences, Dr. Carter F.
Pannill Jr., the medical faculty’s bargaining agent. United University
Professions (UUP), is currently negotiating with University officials
to draw up guidelines in accordance with the order received last
April to implement tighter controls on private practice incomes.
The controversy over outside incomes began in 1961 when
Medicaid and Medicare were first introduced, according to Pannill.
“The adoption of these health care programs meant that there were
no longer any medically indigent persons, and therefore the
operations that had been previously gratuitous in the teaching
profession now began to generate an income,” he said.
It is the auditor’s current stand that control of outside income
be mandatory where state-owned facilities are used, because the
state must be reimbursed for their use when the physician is not
working on University time. The School of Medicine currently
“does not exercise any control over the private practice of its
faculty,” the auditors have contended.
State facilities used?
The issue is complicated by the fact that, unlike other Medical
Schools, this University has no state-owned teaching hospital. The
faculty use county or private hospitals for teaching and for private
practice. According to Pannill, the medical professors contend that
since they do not use state facilities, they should not have to
reimburse the state.
Other matters could also influence the negotiations now going
on, according to Pannill. The faculty of the Downstate Medical
Center in Brooklyn has brought a lawsuit against the state claiming
that the state has no right to regulate their private incomes. Pa nill
commented, “This will probably be appealed and may take years
before a final decision is reached.”
University physicians receive a maximum of $45,000 in state
salary, and are allowed to earn 75 percent above this,
approximately $35,000, in outside income, according to the
auditors. “This is roughly one third to one half what they would
make in the same position in private practice,” said Pannill. “They
are allowed supplemental income so that the University can bring in
and retain an excellent teaching staff,” he said.
Pannill said, “Since there is no written agreement to date, I do
not have the right to audit their earnings.” He added that the
negotiations were approximately half completed and would
probably be completed by this winter.

�Cudek takes care of
maintenance backlog
Students complaining about sluggish Kindling of maintenance
problems are often unaware that the problem is being appropriately
handled, according to Director of Housing Operations Richard
Cudeck. The amount of time taken for a repair is related to the
complexity of the problem, he said. For example, a broken window
takes longer to fix than a broken lock or a leaky faucet. If a special
part is needed, the repair might take longer.
Cudek noted that work orders may be lost in handling, or there
might be a delay if demand for service is heavy. “With the work
force we have, it’s sometimes difficult to keep up.”
Still, student complaints persist. One angered resident of
Spaulding complained that the bathrooms and lounge areas are not
being cleaned regularly. “The place is disgusting,” he said. “There
are thousands of dead flies in the lights. They’ve probably built up
over the years.”
The Custodial Services staff handles about 3000 problems a
month, Cudek said, including garbage removal and general cleaning.
The staff services the residential areas and all of the Ellicott
Complex. Offices are located in Clement basement, Roosevelt Hall
and Spaulding building four.
Cudek urges students who feel that their complaints are not
being handled quickly enough to inform their resident advisor (RA)
and request that another work order be issued. If Custodial Services
cannot handle the problem, it will be referred to Central
Maintenance, and an appropriate tradesman will be assigned.
Central Maintenance is equipped to handle nearly any problem,
Cudek added.

Tenants and landlords

Responsibility and the law

9

Editor's note: Last spring, in one of the year's more intruiging
developments, self-styled campus prophet Michael Steven Levinson,
known universally as Lev, obtained the required 10 percent of the
undergraduate students signatures on a petition that sought to abolish
the Student Association (SA) and establish a government for course
credit. After amsiderable debate, carried on mostly in The Spectrum
between Lev and newly elected SA President Dennis Delia, the
“Leverendum" came to a vote. Opponents maintained the Leverendum
was possibly illegal and certainly impractical, while Lev claimed that he
would finally bring student government to all the students. The issue
boiled down to an at times ruthless battle of intellects between Lev and
Delia. Although the Leverendum was eventually rejected by a 2 to 1
margin, Delia’s image emerged somewhat tarnished from its first real
test. This was all five months ago.

Midway through an otherwise mundane Student Association (SA)
Senate meeting, the twenty-five senators present turned their attention
to an ordinary pink sheet of paper with the familiar SA logo on the top
and the initials DD on the bottom.
In the middle of the page were the underlined words
It was not a mere technicality
CONSTITUTIONAL AMENDMENT
that was to be amended nor was it wholesale revamping of the student
government. The amendment sought to add to Article VIII of the
Student Association Constitution the following passage:
Section 3: By simple majority the Student Senate has the power to
prevent the initiation of a general referendum by petition of10 percent
of the regularly enrolled undergraduate students when shown the
referendum is unreasonable or cannot be implemented.

This is the time of year that
mice are scurrying about looking
for warm winter homes, Burkard
noted, adding that on recent
house inspection tours he has
witnessed many exterior doors
wide open, welcome mats to the
furry creatures. The tenant is also
accoutable for any property
damages rodents may render.

*

Most of the senators had read the amendment before the
proverbial gavel was pounded to open the meeting. It had been the
general topic of conversation in the small, smoke filled Squire Hall
room as those present waited for enough of their colleagues to appear
so that a quorum could be declared.
The amendment was Number 4 on the meeting’s agenda. Numbers
1 through 3 went fairly quickly. The chairman of the meeting, Jeff
Lessof, turned to SA President Dennis Delia who would introduce
topic Number 4. As Delia carefully picked hisjjjirases in describing the
amendment’s intent, a single monosyllabic word hung in everyone’s
mind and hung in the atmosphere of the room itself.
That word was Lev.
After a brief oration concerning the purpose of the motion, Delia,
following the procedure set down in the SA Constitution, entered a
motion that would bring the amendment before the Senate at the next
meeting The motion was seconded and, technically, no further action
or discussion was required. There was an uneasy tension in the air.

On losing and gaininga leader
by Harold Goldberg

As all undoubtedly know by now, the best
possible candidate is not the new mayor of Buffalo
Unlay. Assemblyman Arthur O. Eve lost the election

Jimmy Griffin is this City’s new mayor. A
conservative, tenacious bulldog will now run City

Griffin’s victory. I wonder if you voted on Election

Buffalo Bog
The Convention Center was smoky, foggy,
choking and everyone seemed to be drinking beer.
Griwin stood on a large, raised podium tucking in
his shirt and pulling up his pants and tightening his
belt. He shook hands with his supporters and smiled.
A few of The Spectrum’s city staff writers stood
on a sort of balcony where there was air instead of
smoke to breathe. A rock band played “Roll Over
Beethoven” which was written by Chuck Berry. We
all stood and muttered about the smoke flowing
from these bastard conservatives’ lungs. Arthur Eve
couldn’t lose, could he? I think I cut myself on the
rusty iron balcony.
Someone shut the doors and we left because we
may have died from the smoke. You have to
understand
we were fearful because we were
unable to see the fire. Yet there was this smoke.
The man who closed the door looked at the
-

college students who were standing on the balcony
and seemed to blame them for letting the air in.
Near the car, I kept yelling “Eve!” on the top of
my lungs. Driving down Niagara Street towards Eve
Headquarters, the car behind us kept sounding its
horn for Jimmy Griffin. So we began to toot ours,
Photographer Dave Coker pulled out an Eve poster
he had taken from one of the polling places. Coker
had wished to produce a picture from an assemblage
of Eve and Griffin posters.
This means war
Instead he rolled down the window. The car
slowed to let the other car near us. As they closed in,
Coker pulled out the Eve poster and waved it at the
Griffin supporters mockingly.
Those in the other car thought we were Griffin
backers since we responded to their toots in kind.
When the viewed the Eve poster they chased us
down Niagara Street and around Niagara Square a
few times.
We began to wonder why Eve was losing. Yeah,
because of the racist vote. Or because the number of
votes tallied by the Republican, John Phelan. Or
because of Griffin’s weekend media blitz which
charged Eve with slanderous activities. Or because
this city of Buffalo was too blue collar conservative
to elect a black, liberal mayor. Or all of these.
S-peaches
Eve’s Headquarters was mobbed by hundreds of
supporters and everyone’s closeness to each other
made the place feel very Equator steamy. Each was
still hopeful. Activist Bruce Beyer was there. So was
former Channel 7 hippie Marty Schorr. Newsweek
was there, as was a little black girl holding Eve
balloons and wearing Eve buttons.
Then Eve conceded the election to Jimmy
Griffin. Someone kept saying, “We ain’t lost yet.”
Yelling; “We ain’t lost yet!”
Hoping: We ain 't lost yet.
Eve soothed us ail with his victory speech. The
speech won everyone. All was deathlike quiet. All
believed in unity and that there would be another
chance for Arthur Eve and for Buffalo somewhere
over the rainbow. Amen. Buffalo still has Eve in
Albany.

Maybe we should give Mayor Griffin a chance.

After the election
John J. Phelan, Republican candidate for
Buffaly mayor, didn’t win the election Tuesday, but
no one at Republican Headquarters in the Statler
Hilton Hotel last night seemed to mind.
Certainly not Thomas MacKinnon, Erie County
Republican boss and Phelan’s political mentor.
MacKinnon sat at the podium at the Statler, with his
wheelchair and ever present smile looking for all the
world like Franklin D. Roosevelt. By 10 o’clock, an
hour after the polls had closed, MacKinnon was
publicly predicting that Conservative James D.
Griffin would win, without a trace of despair in his
voice

He was also publicly confiding that Arthur Eve

At the same time, across the hall in Democratic
Party headquarters, Democratic county boss Joseph
Crangle was insisting that “my figures show Eve

Frank Stans, who ran the proceedings at the
Republican headquarters, was concurrently saying,
“The people who called Arthur Eve a winner are
wrong, Arthur Eve is not a winner.” Stans also felt

obligatory concession speech he was greeted warmly
butVwithout excessive zeal. In his short dignified
speech, which lacked the emotion of Eve’s

workers, thanked MacKinnon and praised him as a
“great man,” said that “The People have spoken”

pledged to “continue to work for Buffalo” and made
a “commitment to continue working as a private

On

Wednesday, possibly the most important mayoral race in

Buffalo’s history was decided. In the old downtown Grant’s store the
crowd “Believed in Eve.” And in the early hours of an unusually warm
November morning, his supporters emerged shocked and disappointed.'
Indications that all was not well started an hour and a half before
the polls closed. At that time, the call went out for volunteers to troop
door-to-door in the Ellicott, Masten, Fillmore and University districts
to get the vote out. Poll watchers were indicating that voter turnout in
these strongly Eve supporting districts was below the 90 percent that

The final hour: no dawn
for liberal Arthur Eve

Charts were set up on the wall, one for each district. The order of
the names on the charts showed the order of importance the Eve
people gave to the candidates. They read Eve . . . Griffin . . Phelan . .

in descending order.
At 9 p.m. the polls closed and the room became a sea of people.
Televisions had been set up, one for each of the local channels and they
all prominently featured President Carter to a crowd that could hardly
be less interested. The sound on these televisions was turned down,
unheard by the crowd throughout the night.

By now the room was filled with the voices of Eve’s supporters.
Some had been working since 5:00 that morning. Some had Spanish
accents, some black and still others proudly displayed Buffalo Teachers
Federation hats. They talked about their day’s work, ate, relaxed and
waited.
At 9:30 p.m.. Reverend L.T. Boyd announced “we are going to
win” to a wildly cheering crowd. What those cheers did not know was
that by this time about a quarter of the votes showed Griffin with a
substantial lead, a lead which he was not to relinquish. Still, the crucial
Ellicott, Masten and Fillmore districts had yet to report. Eve Country.
For the next hour the cheerful atmosphere remained unchanged.
By 1 1 p.m. Phelan had all but conceded the election but even this was
kept from the crowd. The vote charts on the wall remained blank. The
question in the crowd’s mind was plain: Where is Eve? By 1 I 30 p.m.
the University district had been soundly taken by Griffin Cigarette

too often deserted Mam Street was mobbed with people.

Pandemonium
At 12 p m. all hell broke loose. A few people noticed that the
returns from the Ellicott, Masten and Fillmore districts were on the
televisions. The numbers showed that Eve hatf won all three districts.
The crowd went wild as they thought they had won. What they didn't

know was that the votes were not enough. Rev. Boyd’s attempts to
calm the crowd went largely unheard.
Fifteen minutes later Fve appeared before a cheering crowd. The
smile the throng was expecting on his face was noticeably absent. The
news of defeat came in the form of a prayer from Rev, Boyd. The
shocking line was, “We accept God’s will, though we have lost" Moans

Eve’s statement to the crowd was brief. Fie told the crowd not to

this unity and use it to make a new major of Buffalo and be mindful of
their needs.

�Safety questioned

Motorcycle helmets: facts surrounding the myth
Editor's note: This is the second
in a scries of articles questioning
the safety of motorcycle helmets.

by Paul Antonik
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Motorcyclists
are
often
envisioned
without
driving
helmets, ending up with crushed
skulls and scattered brains. Some
studies have been shown that
helmets arc at best worthless and
potentially harmful.
Can the anti-helmet law people

Joseph Goebells was right,” Hulll
said. “Repeat even the most
outlandish lie often enough for

to regard it as the truth.”
Research has yielded some
■, concrete answers as to why
helmets are not as safe as people
think. On top of all this, only
medium size helmets are tested
k and approved.
Ed
Armstrong,
engineer,
ABATE of Illinois, testified
before a Congressional Committee
that helmets are incapable of
withstanding impacts above 3.5
mph. The results of his research
were duplicated in independent
tests done at universities which
found that in order for helmets to

compared to a “hangman’s noose”
in a U.S. Naval study. The report
states death can occur in either
instance in the same manner.
Most riders agree, however,
that the helmet is beneficial in
cold or wet weather. It is also of
benefit in competition where the
rider does not have to hear or
look for traffic and where the
accidents are usually not of direct
impact type (i.e. most mishaps
involve falling off the bike or
colliding with a bike moving in

�EDITORIAL

Thinking on the Eve
To the Editor.

The right direction
It appears that the ID Card Committee has finally
the
jettisonned
seemingly
endless
bickering and
charge/countercharge groveling that preceded its inception
and at times pervaded its procedings, by formulating a viable
solution to the enigmatic ID card problem. By calling for the
inclusion of students' date of birth and signatures on the
card, the Committee has taken two bold steps in the right
direction. Firstly, in recommending changes it has admitted
that decisions made by administrators (last year's
committee) were not infallible. Secondly, it has taken the
necessary actions to make the ID card an item which serves
the students' purposes, as well as the University's.
The Committee, chaired by Director of Orientation Joe
Krakowiak and Student Association Executive Vice
President Andy Lalonde, should be applauded and
commended for its perspicacious decisions and swift action.
Had we been accorded this type of efficiency last year, when
the responsibility for handling the card was being tossed like
an unwanted child from one department in the University to
another, the Committee's actions would certainly not have

been necessary.

'

*

.

The crucial burden of decision now rests in the lap of
University Vice President Albert Somit. Somit does not have
to accept the Committee's recommendations and it is
certainly within the realm of his power to reject or alter the
Committee Report. However, it is evident that the time and
effort that the Committee has put into the problem, has
born fruit. It has considered both the students' needs and
the University's scant resources. We implore Somit to accept
the decisions handed him by the Committee and to
implement them expediously. Only in this manner will the
new cards be made available to students at the beginning of
the Spring semester.

Prove us wrong
Count us among the surprised when James Griffin
captured the Buffalo mayoral race Tuesday. What he can do
to unify the city and reverse its slow slide to an urban
graveyard remains to be seen. We are willing to grant the
conservative Griffin the benefit of the doubt, though we
must admit, we find it hard to dismiss racism as a factor in
his victory. Griffin's triumph can only mean a reaffirming of
the notion that Buffalo is basically a blue-collar working
class town, and a significantly conservative one at that. But
we are not quite prepared to write off the city of Buffalo
because of Griffin's triumph, as many would have it.

So congratulations, Mr. Griffin. We urge you to pull the
many communities of Buffalo together for more than
football games and blizzard heroics. Prove us wrong in not
supporting your election bid, and we'ir welcome you with
open arms.

Arthur Eve, Buffalo embraced you with open
arms, but forgot to vote.
Buffalo had its choice, Mr. Kline, and they
decided it at the polls. Your Editorial (Nov. 9) shows

your lack of experience in elections. The game is
never over to the last out. In Eve’s case, his team
never came out to bat in the bottom of the 9th. The
result, Jimmy Griffin is the new Mayor of Buffalo.

This is being written in regard to the article of
November 7, written by Mike Niman on housing.
The article was inappropriately titled: “Fraternities
dorm-bound? Fear of setting precedent.” Six of the
twelve paragraphs contained in the article mentioned
housing. The other half of the article addressed itself
to the author’s obvious prejudice against the
Fraternities. If an article is to be written on housing
problems, pertinent questions should be asked. Some
examples may be: Which Fraternities are considering
moving into the dorms? Which of the Greeks already
have housing? How many students would it involve?
How do other campuses handle the problems of
Fraternities moving back on campus; in relation to
housing? Who is able to negotiate for dorm space?
Would Fraternities be able to negotiate for housing
as do the colleges? An article written in this vein
would have been much more informative offered
some possible solutions or alternatives rather than
just problems and would have been more relevant to
the title. Mr. Niman should have thoroughly
investigated the problem before writing this article
or redirected his focus through the use of a different
title. . k
In answer to several allegations made by Mff
Niman and his unnamed sources, where did you get
your information? First of all, SUNY trustees made
the decision to allow Greeks back on campus after
extensive studies, one of which was done by SASU, a
student organization represented on this campus.
SUNYAB was allowed to set up their own guidelines
for allowing Greeks to return to this University.
Secondly, the decision to allow Greeks to return was

forces chose Mr. Griffin over Mr. Eve this Tuesday
past, the majority of us danced to the same tired
tune that has ever dictated the actions of this reality,
be it Buffalo, or whatever. Those of you who did it,
did it. Your music. Not of the new day’s hope, but

The disservice (and this disservice is one to Mr
Griffin, as well. In some ways, he is the worst victim)
is that, as it was in the 1972 Presidential election, a
candidate was chosen NOT for his good or bad
actions and potentials, but because one was
projected (whether true or not) as a safe choice,
while the other (again, whether true or not)
represented progressive change.
If there is one undeniable fact, whether talking
of reactions to music or urWff Improvement, it’s
this: Here, people are bred, on the whole, only to
want change. Now, it must be faced.

not made in “great haste.” The Vice President of
Student Affairs, Dr. Siggelkow, set up a committee
headed by Dr. Khairy Kawi to write guidelines for
these organizations to return to campus. The
committee was made up of administrators, faculty
and students. There was a tremendous .amount of
input from all facets of the University in the
formation of these guidelines. Should Mr. Niman
have
questions
concerning
any
admittance
procedures, the guidelines are public documents,
available to any University member that asks. This
would have been a much more appropriate source
for universal admittance procedures, rather than
taking a phrase of one Fraternity member out of

context and making objectional quotes. Thirdly,
hazing is against the law in New York State, hazing is
not permitted by any Nationaf Greek Organization
(As of this date, all of the Greeks here are National )
The wording of that paragraph is extremely slanted
and vague. For all anyone knows, the “one student
that died during hazing” could have died of heart
failure, it could have been in the 1800’s, early
1900’s, or in any part of the nation. Greeks not only
“claim" that they do not haze, they state that they

do not haze.
.Finally, there is a question to be posed to any
organization, on this campiisor hot. Is there any
organization that is in no way discriminatory? Do
you not try to draw your merpbers from certain
interested target populations? Does any organization
hold truly universal appeal? Answer these questions
honestly before you call any other organization
“discriminatory.”

To the Editor

the idea that people behind the Iron Curtain ate not

I would like to respond to Fred Call’s letter,
“End the Arms Race” by stating that although noble
in intention, he has misinterpreted the motives of
the Soviet Union. A quick examination of the U S.
and Soviet armed forces indicates a U.S. inferiority
in just about every area, be it navel, airborne or land
units, except for nuclear weaponery. It is my fervent
belief that the goal of the Soviet Union since 1945
has been physical control of Europe and emminence
as the single most powerful natien on earth. Only a
superiority in military might would suffice to allow
the USSR to do what it wants, when it wants to do
it.
To this end, the motives of Brezhnev’s recent
disarmament are obvious. First, by proposing a limit
on testing nuclear weapons and hinting at a later
disarmament, Brezhnev appears to be a peace loving
“knight in shining armor.” As I see it, the U.S. will
undoubtedly agree to such measures and hasten to
destroy our nuclear arsenal as a result of the pressure
brought by innocent and naive people such as Mr.
Call. The Soviet Union, is not, however, such a
peaceful country as might be presumed. One need
only look at the bloody suppressions of revolts in
Hungary in 1956 and Czechoslovakia in 1968 to get

for freedom for the captive nations such as Estonia,
Latvia, Lithuania, the Ukraine, Poland, Hungary,
Czechoslovakia and others?
Returning to the question of the latest Soviet
proposal, let us suppose that the disarmament which
Mr. Call espouses does occur. Then the Soviet Union
will be capable of dominating Europe with its
superior “conventional” army of tanks and men with
the U.S. unable to lift a finger against Soviet
machinations in Western Europe. The case is simple
Soviet military superiority can carry out its goals
only be eliminating U.S. nuclear capability. Brezhnev
no longer needs his arsenal of atomic weapons and is
willing to trade it off for U.S. nuclear arms.
As a parting shot, to those who criticize Mr
Kulyk, are the first to criticize the governments of
Korea and Chile but never is so much a peep heard
from them on the subject on the captive nations of
Eastern Europe. Maybe these critics should read

A&amp;iV»V

by Terence Kenny
Spectrum Music Staff

Last Saturday, many people trucked a long way to see
iheir cult fab heroes, the Grateful Dead, a very wise move.
But there were the wiser ones, the plagued music lovers
who risked their credibility as lovers of rock and roll, those
that did not let a new wave drown them. These
afficianadoes made the right decision. They trekked over
the West Side to catch something different: Jonathan
Richman and the Modern Lovers. They were not let down.
The majority of the audience was out right surprised. I got
what I expected: this was the best rock concert I have seen
in a long time.
The atmosphere was incredible: people shouting,
bopping in their seats, not wanting to go to the bog in fear
of missing any of the music. The show opened with a
fitting prelude to the Modern Lovers: a juggler from the
streets of San Francisco named Ray Jason. This man
astounded the crowd by doing such bizzare antics as
juggling a sickle, hatchet, and butcher's knife. If that
wasn't enough, this mad man tossed about basketballs with
as much agility as Meadowlark Lemon. Seriously, Ted
Mack would have given his left nut to have a dude like this
on his show.
After this mayhem, the crowd was ready for Jonathan
Richman. Oh, but did the boy change his image, no longer
the semetic wimp from Boston but now the relaxed
crooner complete with football jersey and moustache
(Glenn Frey is the only other performer allowed to appear
in public like this). Jonathan opened his show with "Ice
Cream Man" from his latest album. Rock and Roll with
the Modern Lovers. This juvenile ditty as enhanced by
Jonathan abandoning the microphone and filling Upton
Hall with mesmerizing vocals. Wait a second, before I get
carried away, let me say that there was no safety pins or
pogoing in the aisles. No punk rock, no feeble musicians,

no Ramone-esque power choards. What was played was
just
Rock and Roll in its archetypal form. No gimmicks
music. After numerous commands to the sound man to
turn it down, the band responded to a request

for La

:

Bamba. That's right. La Bamba. Richie Valens would have
shed tears of joy, twenty minutes of his anachronistic
claim to fame and thl crowd went wild. Leroy Radcliffe's
guitar work was flawless, he plucked the right note very
single time. 0. Sharpe's drumming kept the Latin madness
going and with Jonathan on his Sears and Roebuck
Silvertone guitar how could they go wrong? This mayhem
was toned down with a dynamite version of "Caravan"
that would have the Ventures trading in their Mosrites.
Garage band enthusiasm
At this point, the screams for requests had to be
ignored. The crowd realized that the Modern Lovers could
easily play anthing they asked for. It was Junior High
dances revisited; the spirit of every kid that ever jammed
with his neighbors in the local garage hung in the air.
Everyone behaved like a frustrated rock star, except J.R.
and the Modern Lovers; they were the stars. Next came the
single from their second album (Jonathan Richman and
the Modem Lovers ), "New England." Here, Jonathan
expounded his theory of New England being the center of
the universe
"I've seen old Israel's arid plain; it's
magnificent, but so is Maine; oh, I love New England." The
dome de dome de dom de dom day background vocals
sounded like the cone heads on valium. Big Asa Brebner
never missed a cue: he wailed and chirped right on time
without ever giving up his pumping backbeat on bass.
Towards the middle of the show, the tunes became
quite restrained. Jonathan fancied crooning without the
mike while Leroy played very very softly. The audience
was spellbound. Could this band really be serious? Songs
like "My love Is Like a Flower Beginning to Bloom" and
"Angels Watching Over Me" caused more than a few
outbursts of laughter. Jonathan appeared a bit piqued but
understood the laughter. The people were being
entertained and laughter was a means to communicate
their approval. Jonathan came across more humorous than
Loudon Wainwnght but he didn't try to. The setting was
condusive to a minimum of music more like a cabaret
atmosphere. This perplexity served to astound those
unfamiliar with the Modern Lovers music. The level of
....

absurdity anticipated by the crowd was actually more than
they bargained for, when they finally realized how absurd
the music was they couldn't comprehend it.

Richman is the Eddie Haskell of rock and roll; the
image portrayed via the music is nothing tike the image
protrayed by the man himself. The crowd was stunned
that they had actually paid money to see a performer that
really cared about what the audience wanted. Not another
pack of shits that run around the country not knowing
what city they're in, the Modern Lovers were one of the
first sincere rock acts I've ever viewed.
Dinosaur metamorphosis
After responding to a request for more Chuck Beery
tunes Jonathan and Co. stayed the audience with one of
the tightest versions of “Roll Over Beethoven" ever
played. There were no flaws, no mix-ups over whose on
lead, whose on rhythm. No doubt about it. The Modern
Lovers are a very polished yet very spontaneous rock band.
After a wild rave for an encore, Jonathan realized the
crowd was on his level of communication. Mimicking and
writing to the objects he imitated, Jonathan convinced
everyone that he was "a little dinosaur."When he declared
he was a little airplane and outstretched his arms one
thought he could fly away. This number and its
accompanying mime forced The Modern Lovers .to go one
step closer to the edge. D. Sharpe came forward
brandishing a trombone while Jonathan went behind the
drum kit. This was the climax-flat notes oozing from a
dented horn while Jonathan beat the skins with prowess
equal to the great Gary Lewis. The audience was frantic,
clamoring for more and more, Jonathan held them in
suspense before answering the desperate please to hear
Roadrunner. This track, the tour de force from their
halycon days with John Cale as producer, left the hums of
two chord rock and roll ringing in everyone's ear.
After this, the music was over but no one turned out
the lights. Instead, Jonathan came out and sat at the edge
of the stage giving autographs (yes, autographs by the
score) and answering any queries his newly won admirers
had. Jonathan Richman definitely captivated his audience
and gave so much more than expected that the crowd
lingered in the hall well after the show was over. For all
those that missed this event, check out any of the Modern
Lovers' albums (Berserkely Records) then you will realize
that not all of the so-called new wave is punk rock and
that without new bands and new approaches to the art, we
all would still be listening to the same old shit that has
been plaguing the record buying public ever since the
death of Jim Morrison,

'Senuaelweiss' at SAT

Serious drama handled expertly by cast
by Tom Dooney
Spectrum Arts Staff

At one time or another each
of us has met, or will meet, a
person so committed to a cause or
an ideal or a personal discovery
that she/he becomes alienated
from, if not an enemy of, society.
Many historical dramas deal with
this premise. When shall society
recognize,
if not appreciate,
genius? Is persecution of the free
thinking individual necessary?
The months of November and
December offer the Buffalo public
the local premieres of three such
historical plays. Two productions
will be presented by the Center
for Theatre Research at the
Pfeifer Theatre. Are You Now Or
Have You
a study of
the House Un-American Activities
Committee of the 1950's, runs
this month (see calender) and
Bingo, Edward Bond's look at the
last days of William Shakespeare,
opens in December.
The third historical drama that
is avialable is Semmelweiss, the
latest Studio Arena Theatre
production. This play, which
opened last Friday, will run
through November 26, and tickets
are available at the Squire Hall
box office.
Adeptly handled

Semmelweiss
is
Howard
Sackler's dramatic biography of
physician

Hungarian

Ignaz

Semmelweis
a pioneer in the
field of obstetrics. When as many
as twenty-five per cent of the
mothers and infants in European
maternity
wards
died
in
childbirth. Doctor Semmelweis
took it upon himself to look for a
treatment for the disease known
as childbed fever.
Semmelweiss is one of the
most intriguing plays that Studio
Arena has brought to town in
recent years. This play is certainly
on a more elevated level of
entertainment and intellectualism
than the usual Studio Arena fare.
In terms of entertainment,
Semmelweiss is a serious drama
adeptly handled by a large cast
under the direction of Edward
—

Sherin. Worthy of special mention
is Lewis J. Stadlen. Stadlen
portrays Semmelweis from the
time he was a medical student
through his discovery of the
clause of the murderous fever and
including the tragic decline of the
man. Semmelweis found that
doctors, ignorant of the modern
practice of sterilizing instruments
and hands before operations,
carried decaying matter from the
corpses they examined in their
line of work and left this
infectious matter in the exposed
mucous tissue of women's vaginas
and cervixes while delivering
children. Semmelweis' request
that all doctors wash before
entering the delivery rooms,
thereby incurring the wrath and
censure of his superiors and
colleagues. He eventually goes
mad from the action of his fellow

doctors and becomes infected
with the disease he
tried
desperately to prevent. Stadlen
plays
the role of a man
determined to overcome the
narrowmindedness of his peers
nad facing professional loneliness
every day of his life in a manner
that draws audience sympathy.
Hard edged look
Amazingly Staflen took on the
role very shortly before the
opening of Semmelweiss. David
Birney, previously cast in the lead,
left Buffalo because of artistic
differences. Birney is usually cast
in romanticized roles and plays,
and he wortcs fairly well in them.
Stadlen, noted primarily for
comic roles on the Broadway
stage and in film ( Between the
Lines is one of his recent works!
services this unromantic and hard

edged look at a person faced with

defeat so well that it is a wonder
he was not cast as the courageous

Every
fascinating to watch, and all the
-lead actors play their roles
convinvingly.

Political activities
The flaws in Semmelweiss are
the playwrights mistakes. True, in
all plays that are based on real
lives there is a need to compress
the facts for dramatic unicy. I
feel, however, that there was no
need to change the protagonist's
name from Ignaz Semmelweis to
Phillip
(note
Semmelweiss

different Christian name; note
additional V in surname). Ignaz
Semmelweis was very active in the
liberal politics in the Vienna of his
day; Phillip Semmelweiss seems to
have no political inclinations.
Surely, if political activities were
included in the play, the character
would be better defind as a person
who sought alternatives in all
aspects of life rather than a
random victim of the oppressive
medical system.
The last three episodes of
Semmelweis' life as presented by
Sackler
are
melodramatic
representations of madness and
death. It seems a pretty cheap
ending for what is basically a
decent play.
Despite flaws. Studio Arena's
Sem me/weiss is an entertaining
and thought provoking Theater
event.

Holling Thunder'

Movie does not follow through on its potential
by

Michael Silberman

Spectrum Arts Staff

This movie had promise. There is enough tension in
the early scenes of Rolling Thunder to lead one to expect a
close examination of the aftermath of the Vietnam war.
The character of returning ROW Major Charles Rane
(William Oevane) provides an excellent opportunity to
explore the war's public and personal consequences. These
are, indeed issues deserving of a thorough treatment. One
car. only be dismayed and annoyed when they are
abandoned in favor of an emotionless vigilante pursuit a la
that in Death Wish.
The film begins with cross-cuts between the Major's
plane and a group of eagerly awaiting supporters at San
Antonio airport. The crowd teems with images of
boy scouts, majorettes. Little Leaguers. To
American
these people Rane is a hero, a personification of a myth;
the tough, rugged individual who has made this country
(peat. As such, he does not disappoint them. Vietnam, he
explains, was not a tragic mistake, but “made better men
of all of us." The people, in turn, show their appreciation
by giving Rane a Cadillac and one silver dollar for each day
he was held captive, a total of $2500.
-

Prodigal Sun

Nevertheless, Rane is unable to adjust to the small
town like he once knew. The one relationship he attempts
to establish is hindered by his son's inability to relate to a
father he never knew, and he is unaffected by the fact that
his wife is having an affair with the local sheriff. It is
indeed ironic that Rane tells the sheriff "the only way to
survive the beatings is to learn to love them," for it is
apparent in these scenes that he can only feel at ease when
he relives the agonies *bf his captivity.

There are some striking similarities between Rane and
Travis Bickle, main character in. Taxi Driver
both being
the creations of screenwriter Paul Schrader. Like Bickle,
Rane is an obsessed and tortured soul, living in the far and
secret recesses of his mind. He secludes himself in the
backyard shed of his house and puts himself through a
rigorous program of physical training
for vriiat, we aren’t
told. And the explicit and graphic depiction of the final
shoot-out prompts unavoidable associations with Taxi
Driver.
■—

Seeks revenge
But whereas Sickle's character was filled with
amibuities, and one could indeed wonder vdiat his motives
were, the reason for Bane's sudden turn to violence is
clearly understood. With the killing of his wife and child.

and the mutilation of his own hand, Rane becomes
nothing more than a revenge-seeking lunatic. White he had
earlier seemed to drift along in some dense and
impenetrable fog, without direction or purpose. Rane now
has a cause to which he dedicates himself tirelessly. It is at
this point that the film begins its steady decline.
One can't be certain how his experience in Vietnam
contributed to Rane's newfound violent nature because
the issue is suddenly dropped. The film no longer details
the difficulty of his assimilation back into the mainstream
of American life. Rane is conveniently provided with the
script for a reversion back to the relentless and sterile
killer-role he played in Vietnam.

Easy way out
The movie dissolves into a mere glorification of his
vengence and violence. Charles Rane is once again a hero,
able to take matters into his own hands. He is the classic
example of a man who has taken all he can stand, and thus
whose rampage we are thus expected to approve of. But
Rolling Thunder takes the easy way out, failing to probe
its complex main character, and disappointing us with its
cheap conclusion. "Let's go home" Rane says at the end of
the film; one can only wonder if he has finally found his
home.

Nick Garvey and Andy McMasters (who joined them at the second
release) rounded up drummer Ricky Slaughter and guitarist Bert
Tchiakowsky from oblivion and formed The Motors.
Besides having some of the most entertaining and controversial
publicity ads (eg. Jayne Mansfield with balloon: "I Lost My Head Over
The Motors" or Idid Amin: "Amin To De Motors"), they've also struck
with the relentless pursuit of prime, riff-chord r'n'r. Big juicy riffs
propel each track with hurrican-like efficiency. For instance, the
opener, "Dancing The Night Away," slowly draws the listener with a
beautiful McGuin structure, then the cymbals accent some ferocity
before the break, the guitar chords bust-out and speedily the number
peaks with an amphetamine pace. The Motors have reeonstructured
that one chord madness which has instrigued the dole babies and have
given it a total face lift.
These chords can bend to more than one tankage via
"Emergency" which is accompanied by blitzed phasing and triple
layered ax tonnage. Yessir, I can guarantee that if the biker heyday was

artist will release the handy little live album should he take time off
from the studio and the public craves more. The record sells like free

yourself in the arse for not being there.
There was a live album released by Capitol Records of the Beatles
performing at the Hollywood Bowl in 1964 and 1965 containing an
array of oldies but moldies to the accompaniment of pubescent girls in
a frenzy. In return, money came bounding back to the record
company, for the Beatles could sell their belly button lint and make a
.

.

fortune.
What we all need now is another live album, right? From here to
eternity, recordings of artists performing in concert wiH be bombarding
our wavelengths. On the roster for upcoming months will be
documents from Genesis, Crosby and Nash, 10CC, Frank Zappa,
Loggins and Messina (their farewell tour), America, Fleetwood Mac,
Jackson Browne, and Kiss. The past couple of years have given us vast
amounts of taped gigs, the staple of every household being Frampton
ComesAlive !, the obvious example.
This kind of product first became popular in rock music with the
three-album soundtrack to the film; Woodstock. It was a landmark of
the times, showcasing the heyday of 60's drug-culture and the peace
movement exploding in full swing. Some of the top acts of the day,
Jefferson Airplane, Ten Years After, Joe Cocker, John Sebastian,
Santana, and Jimi Hendrrx, played for three days straight and produced
a landmark in recording and a milestone of time. One of the gimmicks
from the album was responding to Sly Stone's beckoning "I want to
take you higher !" Higher!
The beginning of widely-accepted live singles was "A Boy Named
Due," from Johnny Cash at San Quentin. A comic, offbeat cowboy
story, the convicts in the background always made the tone rowdy and
the single and the album were taken to heart by all. My favorite part of
"A Boy Named Sue" was to imitate the censor’s bleep towards the end
of the song. What did he say, anyway?
Pop artists of the late '60's/early '70's accepted this relatively new
policy slowly. While Mom and Dad could have settled for the 5th
Dimension, you were in the red with Chicago at Carnegie Hall, which
came with everything except descriptions of the clothes the group
wore. It was a triple-header and dragged a good deal, for the band was
not too polished and there was too much material on it to maintain
interest.
A better attempt was Four-Way Street from Crosby, Stills, Nash,
and Young. These boys jammed feverishly and had a great spirit with
their observers. The sound quality of the live album was steadily
increasing, but there was still a lot more accuracy to be gained. The
four folk-rockers have kept a large, paying crowd up to the present
time. They certainly haven't lost their flair to burn up a stage.
Get Yer Ya-Yas Out broke loose with the frenzy of the Rolling
Stones in action before the spotlights. Jagger taunted, raved, and
slobbered all over the mike with dancing theatrics. The arrangements
were in a different vein than those from the studio, ones that were
exceedingly exciting no one could call the Stones unappealing.
There was only a handful of concert recordings in the early '70's.
The outstanding sample was from the heartthrobs of the sun-tanned
crowd, the Beach Boys, who releaseed In Concert. It displayed their
ability to reproduce complex harmonies in person while giving us our
money's worth of material to sing along with.
Frampton Comes Alivel, one of the best-selling albums of all time,
was expected by nobody and bought by everybody. There was energy,
good production, and a meaty hook in the audience. Afterwards, Peter
went sauntering off into new wealths, a landslide of live albums
followed, and they're still coming fast and furious.
The ingredients behind a concert set's success are faithful
capturing of the artist, avoiding an excess in material and sparks flying
on stage. The live album usually doubles a greatest hits selection, with
the screaming and shouting a provocation to the listener. A concert
version of a song may also be done differently, with extended soloing
or it may be a duplicate of the studio track with an audience yelping at
the beginning and at the end.
Some people argue that an artist's true worth is the performance
live than in the studio. Recently, Be Bop Deluxe's Live in the Air Age
has been subjected to these views. Many claim Bill Nelson's guitar
spurts and the action of the material can't be truly captured in the
studio and the new live set finally does justice to these flaws. Other
artists who fall into this one-sided category include Harry Chapin, The
Tubes, Bruce Springsteen, Lynryd Skynyrd and the J. Ceils Band.
The final verdict on a live album remains nebulous. An artist will
release one when he feels their virtues in concert should be spread to
the public in a wider sense. This recent habit has proven to be very
profitable to some, while there are those who doubt these products
have any value except to display incompetence and a grab for the green
stuff. It all comes down to the discretion of the buyer and how valid
the music is to him or her.

�Available records of modern Chicago blues
by Ron Weinstock

Spectrum Music Stuff

This is the second in my survey of available blues
recordings. Thl* time I will be focusing on the guitar
dominated modern Chicago blues. One problem I have is
attempting to describe and distinguish the guitar and

Lounge about a half year before Earl's death are included
and are remarkable exercises on the guitar. Earl was
respected by his fellow musicians and B.B. King listed
EAr? as one of his favorites.
Freddy King (King)The late Freddy King was the most direct influence on
the British blues rockers like Eric dapton, Peter Green and
Jeff Beck. Freddy was famous for his crisp, driving guitar
instrumentals and strong vocals. Gusto Records who now
owns the old King Records catalog has recently put out
this 17 track album including most of his best recordings.
Tunes include "Hideaway," "Have You Ever Loved a
Woman" and "See See Baby", and this is the essential
Freddy King. Recordings made for Cotillion, Shelter (with
Leon Russell) or RSO just don't come close to these classic
sides. Absolutely essential.

—

Otis Rush, Right Place, Wrong Time (Bullfrog); Cold Day
in Hell (Delmark)
My personal favorite bluesman. Otis sings and plays
with a chilling intensity. The Bullfrog album was recorded
for Capitol in 1971 but unissued till December 1976. The
arrangement and touches of Otis' guitar recall Albert
King's Stax recordings but Otis makes use of falsetto in hi;
singing and is a more fluid guitarist than Albert. The
Delmark album is more recent showing the incorporation
of heavy chording techniques partially derived from
Jimmy Smith's organ playing and Kenny Burrell's guitar.
"You're Breaking My Heart" is eight minutes of no holds
guiar and agonized singing that just overwhelms. This
album has a feel of a live recording with some rought spots
in the band work, but is that much more effective for it.

effects.
Robert Jr. Lockwood, Contrasts (Trix); Blues Live In

Japan (Advent)
Robert Jr. Lockwood is the stepson of the legendary
Mississippi bluesman Robert Johnson. With Rice Miller
(the 2nd Sonny Boy Williamson) he was on the King
Biscuit Time program in the early forties. In the fifties he
was Little Walter's guitarist and a sessionman for Chess
Records. Lockwood is a tasty, distinctive guitarist with an
impeccable sense of time and a jazzy chord-based guitar
approach. His recent recordings as a leader are as satisfying

...

Buddy Guy, A Man and the Blues (Vanguard)
Still playing today, and popular because of his
partnership with Junior Wells, George 'Buddy' Guy plays
remarkable guitar and sings with a gospel inflected voice.
At times, he gets to hysterical in his singing and playing

as his numerous sessions as a sideman.
Contrasts features some band numbers that range
from combo blues to bebop. Half the album is duets with
his bassist Gene Schwartz (brother of Glenn Schwartz who
was the legendary guitarist on Pacific Gas &amp; Electric's first
records). These duets range from "Little Boy Blue" where
Robert plays slide and the two sound like early Muddy
Waters to numbers where Robert's jazz flavored guitar
cones across very clearly. The live album was recorded
with the Aces in Japan and features enthusiastic readings
of a number of blues standards. The interplay betweens
Lockwood's guitar and the guitar of Louis Myers is a
delight and on "Honky Tonk" they build an amazing
intensity. A completely original guitar solo on the
overrecorded "Stormy Monday" is also noteworthy.

which undercuts his effectiveness. This particular album is
a little unrepresentative of Buddy in that his guitar tone is
much cleaner than on other recordings and his singing
somewhat less flamboyant. B.B. King's influence is very
obvious and Buddy does four slow blues with great beauty.
A treat is Otis Spann's presence on piano and the interplay
between Spann's dark rumblins on the keyboard and Guy's
flurries of notes is magnificent. Another fine album. Hold
That Plane, is also on Vanguard and if you can find /
Walked Through the Woods on Chess in the cutout bins do
pick it up as it includes ome of his fine earliest recordings.

FREDDIE KING

Jimmy Dawkins, Blisterstring (Delmark)
Once known as 'Fastfingers' for obvious reasons,
Jimmy Dawkins is an explosive, everchanging guitarist who
plays using a heavy, dark tone with treble and tremelo
effects. He also develops clusters of short notes and plays
across the melody line. This is his third Delmark album
and reveals his continuing musical growth. Jimmy is a good
singer when he doesn't force his vocals, and an excellent
songwriter. A really good example is "Welfare Line,"
which is the album's closing tune. Jimmy's first album,
Fastfingers, won the Grand Prix du Disque of the Hot Club
of France and his second Delmark album, AH for Business,
included Otis Rush on second guitar and is another fine

Earl Hooker, Two Bugs and a Roach (Arhoolie); His First
and Last Recordings (Arhoolie)

John Lee's cousin was one of the masters of the blues
fluent playing slide guitar or modern guitar
runs. "Anna Lee" on the first album features some really
nice slide guitar patterned after Robert Nighthawk. The
title track is a talking blues duet with Andrew 'B.B. Jr.'
Odom and includes two staggering guitar breaks. Other
tracks find Earl playing jazz, B.B. King style and a couple
show him using the wa-wa pedal to good effect. Muddy
Waters' current pianist 'Pinetop' Perkins is on this album as
well as most of the other album. The First and Last
Recordings includes a couple of instrumentals left over
from sessions for Arhoolie, four 1952-3 sides originally
done for Sun Records Sam Phillips with exciting crisp
guitar. Finally two live improvisations recorded at Pepper's

bar. Sam's death was just after a second Delmark album
had been issued and when his career seemed to be
blossoming. Possessed of a high pitched voice and a
distinctive guitar style based on finger-picked single note
runs combined with rocking chord work, Sam produced
some five blues and his is missed by his fellow musicians,
not merely fans. “All Your Love" was a typical Sam
number combining a melody line from an old Lowell

"Lonely Avenue." Sam's recreation here of his 1956
original is nice as are some nice B.B. King styled numbers.

Iht Atlanta Rhythm Section (MCA)
The Atlanta Rhythm Section's latest release,
actually just a re-release of their first two records,
Atlanta Rhythm Section and Back Up Against The
Wall in a double album set called “Atlanta Rhythm
Section" (what else?) isn't worth double the money.
It's supposed to represent the "Atlanta Sound",
which can best be described as a cross between
mellow and boring with some boggie-rock guitar
licks thrown in here and there. lt\doesn*t qualify as
it lacks the fire, the spunk,
good Southern Rock
and the funk, except for an occassional glimmer of
what it should be now and then. “So Into You",
ARS's sexy Top 40 hit from earlier'this year, bears
little resemblance to their earlier music as found in
this collection.
The most boring work found in the set is from
ARS's first album, recorded with Rodney Justo as
lead vocalist. It's not bad music, just not
distinguished
by
anything
whatsoever. They
improved with the addition of Ronnie Hammond
singing lead, when Justo departed to pursue a solo
career (has he ever been heard of again?), Hammond,
their current vocalist, has a stronger, bluesier voice
that charges the tunes with the energy they lacked
before. "Will I Live On" is a powerful ballad, and
"Back Up Against The Wall" an excellent rocker. Joe
South's "Redneck" gets a familiar rock 'n' roll beat,
the kind you've heard a million times before but just
can't figure out where. Altogether, if you want to
experience the roots of the Atlanta Rhythm Section,
don't bother with this two-record set. Just get "Back
or, if you could easily get
Up Against The Wall"
caught up in some Southern Boogie Tedium,

Vivaldi, The Four Seasons (Angel)
What can be said about six virtuoso Japanese
musicians playing a 250 year old work composed in

musicians play Koto, a 13 and 17-string Eastern*
instrument. Vivaldi's Baroque masterpiece 'The Four
Seasons' was transcribed for the different Koto
instruments. Could this be an acoustic ansyver to Isao

Why can't certain musicians leam that they just
can't make it on vocals alone? Narada Michael

at one time, one of the most promising young jazz
percussionists. On this current release, ! Cry, / Smile.

Merle Haggard. My Farewell To Elvis (MCA)
Arriving during a time when everybody from
"The Fabulous Sound Effects" to Otis Blackwell
seems to be cashing in on Elvis' passing. Merle
Haggard has recorded a memorable tribute album.
Besides for the title song, an overly-corny Merle
Haggard ballad. Haggard performs fairly faithvul
renditions of nine of Elvis' most famous songs.
Haggard has a smooth and mellow Vbice, best are his
treatments of the albums ballads. Versions of "Love
Me Tender", "In The Ghetto", "Blue Christmas",
and "Are You LOnesome Tonight" are performed in
a voice so similiar to the King's that its eerie. Only
on "Jailhouse Rock" and "Blue Suede Shoes" where
Merle talk-sings rather then screams like Elvis does
on those tracks, is the album disappointing. The
musicians are all established Nashville sessionmen.
Often, as on "Jailhouse Tock", they take fine but
short solos. Though some may prefer "the real
thing". Merle Haggard's tribute album is a solid and

faithful one.

Herbie Mann, Fire Island (Atlantic)
On his new album. Fire Islnand Herbie Mann
seems to have forgotten his jazz origins and has
assumed the role of a disco band leader and producer

rather than that of featured musician. Throughout
the album, Mann directs his band of competent Salsa
and Disco musicians through a lineup of streamlined,
very slickly arranged Disco tunes. The songs are
laced with typically sounding horn and string charts
which are metronomed into that familiar Disco beat.
Like most Disco and Salsa music, the sound has a
flowing quality to it; images of stylichly dressed
dancers "Roping" through a strobed lit discoteque
"Hustled" through my head as I listened to this
album. Perhaps the album's biggest flaw is that Disco
as an idiom is too confining for Mr. Mann, he seems
trapped into playing his flute at a level way below

this album should be). Fire Island is a danceable,

�RECORDS
Steve Goodman, Say It In Private (Elektra)
As we head towards the end of the seventies one
can take a musical glance back at this decade and

notice an infinite amount of transfigurations. The
re-entry of jazz, disco, the growth of classical rock,
jazz-rock fusion, the beginning of punk rock and the

emergence of a multi-million dollar industry. Music
is no longer exclusively an art, it is a business; and
many musicians with help from their company
executives, have turned into businessmen. Steve
Goodman has proved he is above assimilation.
The opening two cuts on Say It In Private can
be categorized as love songs. The first, "I'm
Attracted To You" is a mellow tune beginning with
a little quick picking, courtesy of Mr. Goodman.
Steve's quivering voice warns his prey to watch out
as the song progresses into a sweet tenor sax solo by
Scott Hamilton. The next cut, "You're The Girl I
Love," offers great contrast to the preceding tune. It
has an up beat with a piercing baritone sax in the
backround. Ken Ascher offers some fine
boogie-woogie keyboards which eventually fade with
the rest of the song. An interesting note is the fact
that string sections are used on both cuts. It seems
that no type of current music can escape the wrath
of collective violins. Actually, I can't complain. They
are used wisely and never take away from the
compositions. On 'There's A Girl In The Heart of
Maryland", the strings set the mood and are perfect
accompaniment for Jethro Burn's mandolin. "Video
Tape", a sardonic view of the worlds fascination
with electronics, a pedal steel guitar is mixed with

the orchestration. Believe it or not, it sounds good.
On his fifth album, Steve Goodman has kept up
with his past and produced an album with great
diversity. His repertoire ranges from songs by
Smokey Robinson to Hank Williams (and of course
some new originals). Blues, ballads and love songs are
all represented.
Steve Goodman's greatest asset is his ability to
write songs which are relative to our times and make
you think about the world around you (Mr. Dylan).
"Daley's Gone" is an excellent example. But it is
now centered on the late mayor of Chicago;

Tom Waits, Foreign Affairs (Asylum)
Anyone for a few dead creepin' Charlies?
Tom Waits' nearly new Foreign Affairs again defines the
expression “classic burn-out makes good." The vinyl features a variety
of musical styles performed with Waits' unique methodical madness.
Frank Vicari's tenor, Jim Hughart's bass, and Shelley 'Hot Coals'
Manne on drums provide ambrosial background noise for the goon's
piano and vocalized growls.
Is Tom Waits for real? Indubitably. Apart from the music's jazz
feel. Waits' lyrics possess a drunken, incongruous stream of
consciousness aura. His poetry is the product of genius, excessive Old
Golds and whiskey:
"the gas pumps looked like tombstones from here
felt lonlier than a parking lot when the last car pulls away
and the moonlight dressed the double breasted foothills
in the mirror weaving out a negligee and a black brassiere
the mercury was running hot and almost out of gas
just then florence nightingale dropped her drawers and
stuck her fat ass half way out the window with
a Wilson pickett tune
and shouted get a load of this and gave the finger to the moon"

/1 would be

funny if heaven was
just like the eleventh ward
and you had to know the right people
to receive your just award.
Steve collaborated with an old friend, John
Prine, to write 'The Twentieth Century Is Almost
Over". Along with the significant lyrics is a
significant folk musician, Pete Seeger, on banjo. This
song is representative of the second side of the
album. Only one song, "My Old Man," uses a string
section and they are the only instruments besides
Steve's voice and guitar, on the song. I can happily
say that Mr. Goodman has used the business' tools to
better his impressionistic style, not his wallet. When
looking back at the music of the seventies it will be
the craftsmen such as Steve Goodman that will be
worthremembering.
—Peter Gordon

with chariie parker on the bandstand not a worry in the world
a glass of beer in one hand and his arm around a girl
and neat was singin to the nurse
underneath a harlem moon
and somehow you could just tell we'd be in California soon"
This portion from the cut 'Jack and Neal' is a swinging
extrapolation of 'California Here I Come' which is transformed into a
Thompsonesque 'Fear and Loathing on the Road to California.'
Waits' bassy rasping vocals are a trademark. Anyone having heard
him scat the tune 'Step Right Up' from ftis previous album Small
Change would agree that despite his thick growl, he can nimbly squeeze
any words into any melody . . . with feeling.
In the song "Potter's Field," the climate shifts to an eerie drunken
nightmare that happened there one night. Waits growls. Images float in
and out of the fog:

Edward Kennedy Ellington. The Duke. An

blood-pulsing flow of human feeling. A statesman
that spoke to the people in his terms: Music. A
Music that has no time to be diluted. A Music that
has no time for putting people on, because the roots
of the song are people. A relaxation that bears
awareness. An aggressive finger snapping to a sacred
beat.

What the hell is going on here? Briefly returning to reality. Foreign
Affairs does contain a few more conventional efforts. For three and a
half minutes, in "I Never Talk to Strangers," Tom Waits grunts groans
and ultimately growls pick-up lines at Bette Midler, who growls back to
a different tune. At least he picks her up in the end.
"Burma Shave" sounds like Bruce Springsteen and Southside
Johnny, would if they every got good. "Barbarshop" is a superslick
performance, reminiscent of the previously mentioned "Step Right
Up." Mr. Snip Snip Snip relates:

come miraculously to us, decades later, in excellent
fidelity. Merci to the French lyiusidisc and other
foreign labels for preserving and bringing forth such
fine documents of our priceless legacy . . . this one,

The album begins and ends on the entrance of
Billy Strayhorn's "Take The A Train," the surging

Following "Boy Meets Horn" is the Mercer
Ellington showcase "Things Ain't What They Used
To Be" (perhaps the packagers of this album were
slyly honoring the musical transition that Dizzy's
changes would usher in). The phasing accuracy of
the Duke's men is a wonder, from a feather quiet to
a strong cadence in the even flick of a breath (still a
mark to match in this day). Johnny Hodges' alto
fluidity strikes a beauty that only a Charlie Parker or
a Coltrane could build upon (Hodges' comment on

�FeUatious bigotry
To the Editor

In regard to the letter “Justified denial of
rights” in Monday’s edition of The Spectrum, 1
would like to express my thoughts about Mr. Thill’s
fears.

It will be seen that Mr. Thill is concerned with
the “We,” i.e., society, rather than the “I.” He is
afraid that decriminalization of homosexual behavior
will result in restrictions on heterosexual behavior, i
would like to point out that, under the penal code,
sodomy (which includes anal intercourse, fellatio,
cunnilingus and analingus) is against the law. This
applies to heterosexuals and homosexuals alike.

Repeal of the sodomy laws, therefore, would result
in more sexual freedom for everybody, not just gay
people. So, Mr. Thill, the next time you are in bed
with your sex partner, remember that unless you
stick to the missionary position, you too are guilty

of breaking the law.
As far as freedom from homosexuals goes, I
don’t believe that by being gay, 1 am forcing my
values and beliefs on anyone. This is the way 1 am,
and if it doesn’t appeal to you or anyone else, that is
entirely your affair. However, the heterosexual
majority believes that it has the right to force gays to
conform to their standards. This dual standard is
completely illogical. The gay minority (about 16
percent according to Kinsey), in seeking its rights, is
only asking to be accepted as another segment of a

FEEDBACK

large, complex society. We are not, repeat not, trying
to force “society as a whole” to become gay.
Mr. Thill also worries that liberalizing gays will
create sexual identity problems for adolescents.
Doesn’t he realize that these problems already exist,
and will not increase merely because gay people have
been given the right to live as they please? If
anything, these problems should decrease; a young
gay person, just beginning to become aware of his
sexuality would have no reason to feel shame, or to
be afraid of what “society as a whole” would say.
Thus, his sexual identity problems could not be
augmented by his fears of societal disapproval. Mr.
Thill speaks of “socializing the young into
appropriate, comprehensible sex roles.” This is
necessary, he says, to ensure the perpetuation of our

Pristine bigotry
To the Editor

The anti-gay letter of Richard Thill is already
ptetty wel refuted by the apt but inconsistent title,

“Justified denial of rights.” No one has a right to
else, but, on the other hand, such
rights as we do have are, as they say, inalienable. The
usual arguments that homosexuality is harmful arc
based entirely on ignorance. They are transparent
stupidities that no one would think of believing S
applied in different circumstances. They are only
saved from being shown up for what they ate by the
total silence about homosexuality that has, in the
past, always been enforced. Mr. Thill however shows
us their basis in all the beauty of its simple pristine
bigotry. There is no harm done to individual or
society. The only argument is that its practice by
those who are so inclined is offensive to others who
are in no way asked to take part. Anyone has aright
to act (harmlessly) as he is. No one has a right to
deny it to him simply out of bigotry. On the
contrary, one has a duty to mind one’s own business, c
Mr. Thill makes another point equally dear it
less explicit. That is that it is not a case of
homosexuals vs. heterosexuals. It is quite easy to
imagine any of a number of different kinds of
pluralistic societies, including ones in which one
could sleep with the (willing) partner of one's
choice. Mr. Thill evidently finds the fact that
someone else chooses to act differently from the
way he does to be, by itself, threatening. It is this,
rather than the nature of the acts, which makes
pluralism difficult. Coming to terms with one’s
sexuality is difficult whether one is straight or gay. it
is so frightening to some that the only strategy they
can adopt is to ignore it and to make sure everyone
else does the same. This is cowardly and oppresses
gays and straights equally. Gays and straights can
coexist quite nicely; what cannot coexist is
repression and freedom.

culture. In order words, he feels that everyone
should be busily engaged in baby-making. Well, I
think that the 84 percent of our society who,
according to Kinsey, are heterosexual, are perfectly

capable of keeping our society well-populated.
Mr, Thill, if you (singular, second person) wish
to live in a heterosexual society, I can only offer one
piece of advice: don’t associate with gay people. 1
don’t know what your mental picture of a gay
person is, but I’m prepared to bet that it is
inaccurate. So beware, there may be one sitting right
next to you.

Ignorant bigotry
To the Editor

Richard Thill’s letter that appeared in last
Monday’s The Spectrum was obviously a result of
ignorance and lack of reading or experience. It
amazes me that people swallow the statements he
made; the assumptions that they were based on are
false and illogical. Had Thill done his homework, he
would’ve found that Kinsey’s research and the
Wolfenden Report had both treated the effects of
homosexual activity on social norms. The two
sources both answer the questions that Thill raises
and dismisses them as unsubstantiated, invalid and
based upon ignorance and/or religious teachings
My feeling is that Thill needed somehow to lay a

bottom

guilt trip on the gay minority by blaming it for what
he perceives as corruptions of social norms.
Hopefully, he will assume responsibility for his own
sexuality and leave mine to me. He should research
to see why Kinsey and the Wolfenden Report both

recommend the decriminalization of homosexual
activities. It’s hard to keep from laughing at such
illogical and unbased bigotry, so 1 won’t try . . Ha!
As Walt Whitman so eloquently said: “1 hear it

institutions, but really I am neither for nor against

them, or what with the destruction of them?) . . .”

Dramatic bigotry
To the t'ditor

of

this

ad.

There appears

a one-hne

promotion naming a nameless record store known in
some UB circles as “Savage’s Record Store.” A great
pumber of students at this University (and rumor has
it a lot of other folks also!!) seem to have a great
deal of contempt for one Carl Cavage. This infamous
Mr. Cavage has repeatedly tried to screw the
SUNYAB students by attempting to close down our
Record Co-op and therefore force us to walk (or
crawl as the case may be) across the street and pay
too many dollars for too little product, namely tte
almighty ALBUM!!
I feel that this action by The Spectrum staff
totally negates the actions (however questionable
they may be!) of people like Richard Lippes who are
fighting to retain a viable and useful student service
here at UB. The Record Co-op is more than just
what it appears to be
it is a symbol representing all
services of our campus community that offer
reduced costs and beneficial services to the students.
Ordinarily, these services would cost much more
money and some might not even be available if not
offered on a campus basis. After all, by paying our
student activities fee, WE are supporting the Record
Co-op (as well as all the other student services) and 1
urge The Spectrum staff, as well as all the students at
UB, to seriously consider all the facts and and
circumstances before giving money to (and taking
advertising from) such money-hungry, exploitive
retailers like MR. SAVAGE Cavage,

and go to bed early. Be forewarned of the “dagger
that gay liberation points at the institutions of
heterosexuality,' monogamy and the nuclear family."
How dramatic, Richard! A dagger! Please, Mr.
Thill, you must take us for fools Gay liberation
poses no threat to your all-American dream (or your
penis, 1 might add!) It represents a step towards the
liberation of mankind from its self-imposed culture.

“What is good for the society as a whole?” That
was the “most important question” which Mr.
Richard Thill posed in his letter of I 1/7. He also
went on to say that while freedom for gays would
make them happy, it would be imposing on the
heterosexual majority. “Freedom from homosexuals
is what most Americans want.”

To athiests and agnostics
To the TJilor

On October 14 an ad appeared in The Spectrum
an interest teaser for a retreat on personal
hang-ups. Since .reservations were necessary I
received a call from a woman student who asked. "Is
this retreat sponsored by a religious organization?"
(Space and forgetfulness had precluded the inclusion
of that information.) "Yes." I replied. "O.K.,
goodbye," she said. "Wait, wait!" I yelled; “Why are
you so quick to say boodbye?" "I am an atheist and
I don't do anything with any organization that is
church real ted.” I suggested that she might be
interested to know that two or three people already
going &lt;&gt;n the retreat were agnostics, if not atheists.
But that had no afieyt with her.
Some similarwvents have caused me to think
further on this issue. Two major points come to
mind: limiting and corrective.
it seems there was interest present that led this
woman to call about the retreat, but since there was
religious
sponsorship involved that meant an
automatic “no-way" response. Consider how limiting
that is. A person who rejects any contact with a
group because of such a stand limits participation in
some experiences that could prove rewarding,
growing, and nourishing, and which may not demand
a change in that person's belief position. If the
subject (content) fellowship is interesting and
perl intent, should a person so quickly dispense with
it. especially if there are assurances that others of a
similar persuasion have been or arc involved, who
have not dad to compromise who they are in order
to participate, grow, and learn. It might surprise
many atheists and agnostics to learn that some
participants in religious groups share some of your
thoughts and concerns.
The corrective point is that religious groups
as

need atheists and agnostics. Obviously, not all would
welcome them, nor even agree that they need them.
It has been my experience for five years here that
some of the most serious and best thought on

religious issues and experiences has been offered by
those of you who are atheist or agnostic. Why not
get involved and let the churches of religious groups
learn from you? Let your thoughts and ideas serve as
a corrective to the religious group! 1 am convinced
we could all use it, but I especially welcome it,
which means atheists and agnostics are always
welcome at Wesley Foundation functions; as you
are, with no attempt to demand a change of your
belief positions, but an open willingness to dialogue

Smith. This “Japan Inc.” term is
given validity when the teeel firms

interesting races.
Incumbent William Pauly, an
alumnus of this University,
became the first legislator to ever
win re-election in the 14th district
when he defeated Democrat David
Swarts 9,260 votes to 5,655. The
15th district race saw Mary Lou
Rath upset Democratic majority
leader Dan Ward by 1,689 votes.
Another key race was in the
8th district where Michael Alessi
knocked off ousted Democratic
majority leader Jim Arcadi.
Arcadi was running in spite of a
bribery indictment, which did not
directly involve his governmental
position. In this race a third
candidate, Lucian Greco of the
People’s Choice Party pulled
2,553 votes. Alessi, a county
janitor, received 5,043 votes to
Arcadi’s 3,650 to give the

only Division I team on the Bulls’

Wright expects the contest to be a
good test for his charges. “This

indication of the type of team we
have,” he said. “Our freshmen will
get a taste of what college hockey
is really like.”
The Bulls have been practicing

“This is obviously about the Leverendum,” the senator replied,
“and regardless of what you might think, the Leverendum was not as
ridiculous as people say.”
The discussion was out of order. Since no vote was to be taken at
this meeting, parliamentary procedure was being usurped by the debate
concerning the amendment. Chairman Lessof pounded his flst on the
table, “I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to rule this out of order. The
discussion will end.”
The discussion ended.
Topics 5, 6 and 7 were disposed of. The original dissenting senator
spoke up again. “I would like to bring this amendment up for
discussion since 1 feel there is sufficient sentiment in this room to
prevent it from coming tp a vote.”
Onslaught
Chairman Lessof, glancing down the table at Delia, stated he
would have no objections since the agenda had been followed and there
was no other business. Delia sat expressionless, awaiting an onslaught
lie seemed to fully expect. The onslaught came.
A senator charged Delia with not having faith in the student body
to be intelligent enough to vote down a “frivolous” amendment. Delia
said referendums cost money and that it was too easy to bring them up
for a vote. A senator said that gathering petition signatures was no
breeze, that he had done it himself. Delia countered by observing, “It’s
not that hard.” The amendment was called ridiculous. Delia observed
that it was relatively easy tp pass a referendum forcing the executive
board “to wear Mickey Mouse hats” and that that was “ridiculous.”
The amendment was termed “fascist.”
Delia said he did not expect to encounter another referendum
himself, and that his proposal was offered out of concern for future
administrations.
Finally. Delia offered to withdraw his original motion if the senate
was sufficiently opposed to it. Chairman Lessof called for a straw vote.
The tally was about 15 to 10.

‘The answer lies in unity’

Race, rape and injustice: Angela Davis speaks
by Michael Silberman
Spectrum Staff Writer
Davis,
the
Angela
co-chairperson for the National
Alliance Against Racist and
Political Repression (NAARPR),
attempted to dispel the myth of
the black rapist before a near
capacity crowd Monday night in
the Fillmore room. Sponsored by
SA Speakers Bureau and the Black
Student Union. Davis remarked
that this myth developed as a
result of a racist ideology, and is a
fabricated and distorted view that
has become a dominant theme of
American history. “It serves as the
fuel which ignites other racist
arguments,” she said.
The much publicized case in
Buffalo of Kenneth Johnson
served as a focal point from which
Davis initiated her discourse on
these historic circumstances and
misconceptions.
Characterizing
most rapists as being white,
and
wealthy,
politically
influential, she dted numerous
past and current cases in which a
black man has been falsely
convicted and jailed for the crime
of rape.
touched on many
Davis
subjects in her brief historical
account, in an effort to alter the
generally inaccurate portrait of
the black man. She went as far
back as the Civil War, which her
history books described as “the
war for southern independence”
and dealt with such recent works
as Susan Brownmiller’s Against
Our Will , which she called
“pervaded with misconceptions
and racism.”

directed to the women’s anti-rape
movement, Davis siad that it was
essential that women come to the
defense of those men who become
victims of racist rape trials.
Angela Davis was last in
Buffalo to participate in a
demonstration demanding the
“immediate and unconditional
release of the brothers at Attica.”
Once again, Davis stressed Attica,
where four guards and 39 inmates
were killed in the 1971 riot.
Calling John Hill, the lone inmate
still serving time stemming from
the bloody incident, a scapegoat,
she advocated the formation of a
committee to free him. Davis also
labeled former Governor Nelson
Rockefeller
“the
criminal
responsible for the massacre at
Attica,” and continued by stating
that Governor Carey’s amnesty
was directed not at the prisoners
but rather at the guards.

Wilmington Ten trial frightening
Davis, who had spent the
weekend conducting a workshop
on political prisoners imprisoned
on rape charges at the fourth
annual NAARPR conference in
St. Louis, called that movement
“one that transcends political
differences.” The alliance, among
other things, is actively pursuing
the case of Rev. Ben Chavis and
the Wilmington Ten in North
Carolina. The account Davis gave
of that trial was truly frightening
because she outlined specific
fraudulent acts committed by the
prosecutor and judge, such as
presenting false information and
withholding other pertinant facts
and coercing the defendants and
witnesses
into
signing false
statements, all of which are direct

She saw a connection between an

economic status of this country,

“People
Rockefeller must get their profits

people,” she said
Davis stated that the function
of racism is to have people
fighting against one another and
thus lose sight of their real enemy
“The gladiators massacre one
another as Rockefeller is left
laughing,” she intoned softly.

In a specific appeal to white
people, Davis warned, “If you
don’t play a role against racism,
you are only hurting yourselves,
your parents, your children and
your children’s children, for there
will be no hope for any of us.”
She stated firmly that the answer
lies in unity.

PE requirement is altered
again; link to new gym cited
by Harvey Shapiro
Con tribu ting Edi tor

The University’s see-sawing gym requirement
has been altered once more to allow freshmen
four years to complete two credits of physical
education instead of the originally envisioned one
year.
The new policy is, in actuality, a replica of
the traditional requirement, except that any
currently enrolled student with more than 12
credit hours is exempt. Thus the University hopes
to “catch up” with the demand for gym courses,
which has, in the past, overwhelmed the
Department of Recreation, Athletics and Related
Instruction (RARI).
This fall, after freshmen complaints
concerning the unavailability of gym courses, the
department survey revealed that only 1300 of
2350 first year students can be accommodated
with existing facilities and staff.
Hence, the school’s plan to have all freshmen
complete two credits of physical education in
their first year appeared impossible to
implement. Cutting the requirement to one credit
was then actively considered as a solution to the
space problem.
Acting Dean of Undergraduate Education,
Walter Kunz, was quoted in the October 3 issue
of The Spectrum as saying: “The Committee on
Academic Requirements has recommended that
because of the lack of staff and facilities, the
requirement be changed to one semester of gym
for each student.”
Plan reconsidered
The cutting back of the requirement to one
credit, which appeared certain in October, was
reconsidered in the weeks following Kunz’
statement. Based on a study undertaken by
RAR1, which included previously ignored factors,
Kunz has placed his faith in the new plan.
Under this plan, Millard Fillmore College

students and transfer students will remain
exempt from the requirement. Also, the content
of all gym courses will be re-evaluated with the
intent of granting some courses two-credit status.
“There are courses that we give that can be worth
two credits,” Chairman of RARI Sal Esposito
said, “If a student takes one of the two credit
courses he can finish the requirement in one
semester.” In addition, class sizes of various
courses will be increased where feasible to insure
maximum usage of facilities and staff.

According to Esposito, 50 percent of a given
class of freshmen eventually leave the University
before graduation. Esposito feels that, given this
fact, the new policy can be workable. “I know
the numbers look bad now,” he commented,
“but with all factors considered, students should
be able to finish the requirement in four years.”
Conflicting reports
Student Association (SA) President Dennis
Delia said he supports the new policy. “I never
thought the requirement should have been
waived in the first place. If they amended the
requirement again, then the Department would
have lost faculty.” Delia added that funds for the
new Amherst gym would have been cut had the
requirement been altered.
However, Administration officials did not
concur with the gym funding link. Assistant to
the President Ron Stein said the funds for the
new gym were “just one of many factors taken
into consideration.” Vice President for Facilities
Planning John Neal said he doubts whether
Albany would cut the funds for the gym had the
requirements been cut back. “There is
recreational space allotted in the plans for the
gym which would not be affected by a reduction
of the gym course requirement.” Neal concluded
that if a change in the requirement would occur,
“it would be because of a lack of space, thus
showing a need for a new gym facility.”

President Carter rejected a bill Wednesday that would have
authorized $80 million for a controversial nuclear breeder reactor on
the Clinch River in Tennessee. This is the first veto of his
administration.
Carter said approval of the experimental reactor, which would be
fueled by plutonium, would “imperil the Administration’s policy to
curb proliferation of nuclear weapons technology.”
Carter and other critics of the use of breeder reactors have
contended that their world-wide use would result in a steady increase
in the number of nations capable of producing nuclear weapons.
Supporters of the breeder reactor program have argued that there
will ultimately be a shortage of uranium as fuel for conventional
reactors and that new, experimental reactors designs would greatly
increase the period in which atomic power plants could generate
electricity. Carter said the breeder reactor project would be

“technically and economically unnecessary.”
Stuart Eizenstat, Carter’s assistant for domestic policy, said that
the President was confident that his veto would be sustained by
Congress. It takes a two-thirds vote in both the House and Senate to
override a veto.

Endorsed by Nixon
The Clinch River project, strongly endorsed by former President
Nixon as the solution to future energy shortages, was to be built at Oak
Ridge, Tennessee, as a demonstration of the feasibility of breeder

reactor technology.
As such, the project had become a major goal of the nuclear
industry in the United States, which lobbied heavily for it over the last

few months. Because of the concern over the ease with which
plutonium fuel could be made into atomic bombs by underdeveloped
nations and even terrorist groups, many environmental groups and
public affairs lobbying organizations strenuously opposed the plan.
Carter, who was once a nuclear engineer, said that the breeder
project, if completed, “would be a large and unnecessarily expensive
project” and “in no way is necessary to ensure the continued
development of nuclear technologies, including liquid metal fast
breeder technology.” The federal cost of building the breeder project
has now grown to an estimated $2 billion.

Making space for Biology
by Elena Cacavas
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Investigation by The Spectrum has yielded extensive
documentation of 1976 funding and space allocation procedures for
Hochstetter Hall, the new Amherst Campus home of the Department
of Biological Sciences.
Department-wide response resulted from a quote appearing in an
article which detailed disputes between the Cellular Molecular Biology
Division (CMB) and Environmental and Organismal Division (Biology).
A Biology faculty source had been
quoted as saying, “Out of the Street to Hochstetter at Amherst,

“As it stands now, no store can

will have to charge to pay the

Pulli was questioned why the Hospital doesn’t increase its available
parking facilities. He said, ‘They have plans for a parking ramp that
would take years, though.” Pulli also added that “dead land” adjacent
to the Hospital was to be made into a 125 space lot, which students
and VA employees could use, but Councilman William Price defeated
the bill.

Price explained, ‘The bill that came through was a turkey one, and

there were manifold reasons why I was against it. First of all, there
would be no return to the City. Many of the parks have been closed
down, Grover is one of the few left. Third, many of the veterans were
against the lot because they maintained that other people besides
veterans would be using the lot. Fourth, the building of the lot may
run a run on Grover, housing projects may break through.”
'■
Pulli also complained that “from Bailey and South Park Avenue
cars are allowed to park on both sides of the street, but from Winspear
and Bailey to Bailey and Main, the widest stretch of the street, people
are only allowed to park on one side of the street.” Pulli further
complained that the Town of Amherst has shut off parking on Mona
and Jasper Streets, behind the VA Hospital. He pointed out that “2200
students at this University come in for use of VA facilities.”
Pulli was asked if workers were instructed to stay out of the Bailey
Lot because of the parking problem. “Yes, they arc,” he responded. In
the Hospital Reporter they arc notified of the circumstances for

he utilizes a simple repetoire of
props, consisting of rope, balls,
water and his hands and face.
Lehn defines his role of magician
as someone who “manipulates the

them believe something they

Don then attended this University
for eight months prior to
transferring to the University of
Grenoble, in France.
Street-side shows
It was in France that Lehn
helped compile a children’s book
enabling him to graduate from
Buffalo. At this point in time he
realized what his true course in
life should be. After spending the
two years in France, Lehn
returned to the United States,
performing in Boston. Aside from
his traveling street-side shows,
Don was hired by the Boston
Public Schools where he taught
and performed professionally.
Last year he returned to Europe,
where he learned about the
European circus on a first hand
basis.
“The circus in Europe is
different than that of the ones in
the U.S.,” said Lehn, who
observed a
dozen European
drcuses in his travels. While in
Morocco, Lehn was hired for a
brief time as a circus clown. He

said he and his partner attracted

Timeless enthusiasmfor dancing here

“Gotta dance, gotta dance,” so

the
popular
song
Apparently such were the feelings
of 600 people at this University
who signed up for dance classes
last year.
Interest in dancing is timeless
and universal, director of the
Dance Program Linda Swiniuch
informs. “Historically, people
never stopped dancing even when
prohibited; when chased off the
church altar, they moved to the
church steps, and from there to
the theater carts.”
The
number
of dancing
students is especially significant,
Swiniuch notes, in light of the
fact that only about six of them
choose dance as a major. It seems
that students are enrolling in
dance classes out of sheer
enthusiasm.
The dance program here is
sponsored jointly by the Physical
Education and Theatre Arts
Departments, the latter offering a
much greater proportion of dance
courses.
Diverse ‘Zodiague’
“Dance is more interesting as it
is related to the theatre; there’s an
atmosphere of more things going
on,” comments Swiniuch, who

works under the Theatre Arts
umbrella. “Dance never interests
me in isolation,” she says, a
reason why she sees various
possibilities for interdisciplinary
majors in dance. Swiniuch had

and situations as possible. The

her company of dancers, have

The enthusiastic response to
this “tits and teeth dancing”
seems fairly representative. “Even

dancing, dig jazz the most,”
Swiniuch comments. “It seems
they really like the sexy stuff.”
And sexy dance has certainly
been at various times in history.
During the Roman Empire it
became lascivious and lewd.
Perhaps, Swiniuch speculates, it is
this association of dance with
physicality and sensuousness that
has

academically viable subject. But,
she adds, dance certainly is not

Chabad presents
Mid-east folkie
Chabad Student Center will present a concert on November 12
featuring Sephardic Cantor and singer of Middle-eastern folk music
Aharon Ben Shushan.
Shushan was born in Mogvala, Morocco, He is a descendant of a
family of Rabbinical scholars and Kabbalists who were heads of the
Jewish courts dating back to a time prior to the Spanish Inquisition
He has been singing since the age of seven when he sang in his
father’s synagogue. Mr. Shushan is quite proficient at what he does
and often tells stories woven around a song. Whether the listener is
acquainted with his type of music makes no difference, since he is
quite entertaining.
In 1968 Aharon came to the U.S. to pursue his rabbinical
studies at the Mirrer Yeshiva in Brooklyn. He was 14 at that time.
The Shabbatop will begin on November 11 at 5:30 p.m. at the
Chabad Student Center, 3292 Main Street, with services led by
Shushan.
At the Shabbat dinner he will sing some Middle-Eastern and
Sephardic melodies with culinary delights.
On November 12, morning services will begin at 10 a m.
followed by a luncheon at which Shushan will entertain.
On November 12 at 8:30 p.m. in the Chabad Student Center,
2501 North Forest Road (take bridge behind Wilkeson Quad) he
will hold a public concert of Sephardic selections accompanied by
an instrumental ensemble. A festive meal will be served of
Sephardic food, and some vegetarian entrees will be served. All are
welcome!

Food Service complaints

IRC and Hosie discuss gripes
by Brace Latman
Staff Writer

Spectrum

A delegation from the Inter Residence Council
(IRC) met with Director of Food and Vending
Services Donald Hosie Friday to discuss wide-ranging
student grievances concerning Food Service
operations.
Representing the students were SA Vice
President of Sub Board Jeff Lessoff and IRC Vice
President for Activities Planning Barry Rubin.
The first item of controversy was the Wilkeson
Pub. Rubin asked for a price list of all mixed drinks
to make a comparison between Pub prices and the
prices at various local bars. Hosic assured him that
such a list exists and that one would be furnished
immediately. At this point, Lessoff inquired about
the admission charge ($1) to the Pub. “It pays for
the band,” said Hosie. He added, “The admission
charge goes to a band account and we pay the band
from there.” Lessoff pursued the matter further.
“Why can’t we lower the price for students and raise
the price for non-students,” he asked. “Last year the
admission charge was sometimes $.50, $.75 or $1.00.
This year it’s always $1.00.”

malfunctioning, and Hosie responded, “1 want to
know where machines could be used, if there are
machines regularly malfunctioning.”
Governors troubles
Rubin moved on to the results of a poll “of
various floors of Governors” concerning food
service. The feeling among the dorm’s residents was
that the absence of week-end contract meals was an
inconvenience, but that a larger inconvenience was
the hours set for dinner (4:30-6:30 p.m.). Rubin
stated that the students would like to have dinner
extended thirty minutes every night. “An extension
of hours is an expansion of the payroll,” replied
Hosie. A student present at the meeting spoke of the
problem some students had who have classes from
4:30 to 6:20.
Hosie answ red, “If a student has a schedule
problem, there are three things that we can do; we
can save him a hot meal, which is the least desirable;
we can pack a box lunch; or we can give credit for a
cash line.” Hosie did not dismiss extending the hours
7 p.m., saying he would “look into it.” Twenty
percent of the students come in at 4:30. In the
GUicott complex we have two units. We’ll keep one
open until seven on an experimental basis. Then
we’ll see; if we have a small percentage participating,
we’ll move it back.”

Pub lost money

�War Memorial) Stadium

Supporting the rebirth
of an obsolete stadium
by Jim Neill
Spectrum Staff Writer

The structure is located at the
corner of Best
Street and
Jefferson Avenue in the Masten
District of Buffalo, one of the
most depressed areas in the city.
When it was built as a part of the
Works Progress Administration
program in the mid-thirties, the
arena was described by a federal
official as “the shining example of
federal
munificence
and
magnificence in the local works
project.” It is War Memorial
Stadium.
Today, the “old rockpile” is
seldom used, but often abused.
Only the professional Buffalo
Blazers of the North American
Soccer League have found a
purpose for the stadium by
playing their home games within
walls,
the concrete
and as
Masten
outgoing
councilperson
Vincent W. Wilson points out,
“After the Buffalo Bills left at the
end of the 1972 football season
there simply has not been much
use found for the park.” This
same situation existed in the late
fifties when the then Masten
councilperson Cora Maloney made
a proposal to demolish the
stadium. The Board of Education
then asked if it could build a
school there. However, Offerman
Stadium, the home of the Buffalo
Bisons
of the
International
League, was leveled instead. Then
in 1959, the baseball Bisons of the
International League and the
Buffalo Bills of the newly formed
American Football League signed
contracts to play in the stadium
and it had new life.

The W.P.A. stadium project
was opened on October 16, 1937,
when a crowd of 35,000 showed
up to see Colgate nip Tulane
University 7-6 in college football
action. At the time, the stadium
was named after Charles E.
Roesch, who was the mayor of
Buffalo from 1930 to 1934, and
who had recently died. However,
naming the stadium was not easy
for the city council. The common
council even went as far as to
decide to name the stadium after
Grover Cleveland, and then in the
same meeting, changed its mind
and went back to Roesch.
When the council voted to
mount a bronze plaque on the
stadium wall honoring Frank Carr,
a former
Democratic Party
Chairman, Mrs. Roesch asked that
her husband’s name be removed
from any connection with the
sports arena. So in December of
1937 the name was changed to
Buffalo Civic Stadium. Then, in
August of 1960, the stadium was
rededicated as War Memorial
Stadium in honor of all citizens
who served in the armed forces.

�EDITORIAL
Down of Eve
That the mayoral election yesterday was of such
paramount importance to the very survival of this city and
to all those who wish to be numbered among its inhabitants
must be emphasized and re-emphasized, not only as a
prologue to what changes could occur but as subtle pressure
on the new admipistration to act quickly: to fire and hire
the right people quickly, to apply for the right funds for the
right projects quickly and to make sure that Buffalo is
prepared to deal with another Blizzard of 77 without death
or serious loss of work or school time.
It is being assumed at the time of this writing that
Arthur Eve wili/did win the election and that he is carrying
in a new era of progressive change on his shoulders, the likes
of which Buffalo has not witnessed. He will fight the
corruption and deep-rooted ineffectiveness of the "boss
machine," and instill in Buffalonians a certain confidence,
not simply a civic pride, that their elected government
officials will really listen, will ge out into the streets and
demand what must be done, an; will not just wallow away in
City Hall and at luncheons at the Statler Hilton.
Perhaps for the first time ever, black citizens of Buffalo
can literally dance in the streets because their man, a man
they feel they can really trust and from whom they can

expect more than empty promises, a man who finds his
political roots in the black community, is Mayor. Also for
the first time, white citizens here will be forced to admit
that a black man can take care of their business and lead the
city out of min.

Public trust arfd confidence in an elected official is
important and perhaps uncharacteristic of a city divided
along such ethnic lines. Eve will bridge the gap. If he doesn't,
and this city will not reverse its steady decline, it will be
because white elected officials amd their constituents will
not support his programs and City Hall will become the
scene of a political race war.
,

Don't laugh. Every good, American liberal is supposed to
deny it and smoothe it over and not talk to the press about
it, but race and religion are as influential in American
politics as is money.
(You know, his is the only opinion that counts; he's
paying, you're not.) Who said that? Someone in the Record
who cares.
it doesn't really fit, but
Coop yesterday
...

...

So, even if the New York Times does not feel that
Buffalo's mayoral race is important (of approximately an
entire page of mayoral stories, Buffalo received a one-line
notice to the effect that one of the candidates was a black
man), local newspapers know better. The life of the city is at
stake.

So, Arthur 0. Eve, Buffalo embraces you with open
arms. Buffalo is watching your every move, intently. Buffalo
has no choice.

person inexperienced in the music business can feel
the way Mr. Kanal feels. 1 have felt that way myself
before getting involved. But the fact remains that
students want the best concerts available. That
means Artists who are Prima Donnas. Everyone of
them thinks that he’s an Elton John or Stevie
Wonder. So University Union Activities Board has
problems with them. Then there are constantly
problems with the Gym facilities, sound, stage etc.
All of these problems lead to one giant headache on
the day of the show. As for there not being enough
bathroom facilities, this is entirely the fault of an
inadequate Gym. Those in charge of the concerts
realize how bad the Gym is for a concert, but it
happens to be the largest place to show a concert on
Campus. Students last year in the Sub-Board I, Inc.
survey stated that they would rather attend a
concert on Campus compared (41.8 percent) to
(37.1 percent) downtown. I think most people
would rather see a concert in a theater but many of
them are unwilling to travel downtown to see one.

To the Editor.

On Friday, October 28, my letter concerning
Bruce Beyer appeared in The Spectrum. Nowhere in
my letter did I defend the U.S. for their actions in
supporting oppressive regimes. I feel as bad for the

people of Chile as I do for the peoples of Eastern
Europe. However, Ms. Aretaki-Smith is misguided in
her thinking that the U.S. is defending right-wing
dictatorships because of business interests. She states
that wars are fought only so the rich can prosper
even more. This is an outright lie, for all our efforts
overseas, military and non-military have been made
to halt the growth of worldwide Soviet domination;
nothing more, nothing less.
In her letter, she states that we Americans enjoy
only “an illusion of liberty.” If the freedom that the
peoples of the West enjoy is just an illusion, then
why have so many East Germans risked their lives to
try and escape across the Berlin Wall? Why did the
people in South Vietnam cling desperately to the
wings of the last American planes to evacuate Saigon
in 1975? Why did so many Vietnamese beg to be
taken along to America, so they wouldn’t have to

face the Communist “liberators”? Why did the
Hungarians and the Czechs revolt in 1956 and 1968,
respectively? Why do thousands flee the Ugandan
border into Kenya every day? Why have so many
Soviet and Red Chinese pilots and military personnel
defected, to the West? And why do Ukrainian
dissidents such as Valentyn Moroz look towards the
West for help? Somehow, the freedom we have,
which is the source of strength for so many
oppressed people, has to be more than an illusion,
for if we did not have freedom here, than the
Communists would not have barricaded their borders
to stop people from fleeing to the West.
In 1976, I had the priceless opportunity to tour
the Soviet Union. I say “priceless” because 1 stayed
away from the set Intourist itineraries, and went off
on my own to discover how the people really live.
What I saw appalled me. The newspapers carry the
same garbage day after day: “Lenin . . . Glory to the

Party . . Glory to Lenin . . . Glory to the Struggling
Working Class . . .” Churches were boarded shut.
Living conditions were disgusting. Goods we take for
granted such as faded Levis or toilet paper are
precious commodities. Everywhere you look a harsh,
cold, banner of Lenin stares you in the face. The
younger generation is nothing more than an army of
mindless zombies, incapable of individual thought,
dedicated only to the destruction of Capitalism,
America, and the American way of life. And boy, do
they start brainwashing the kids early! I visited a
nursery school in Ternopil (western Ukraine). After
being introduced as “the rich, American capitalist”
(Who, Me?), the children recited a poem for me.
“Lenin gives us bread, Lenin makes the sun shine
and makes the crops grow, Lenin puts a bright smile
on the happy Young Octobrists (Communist youth
league for children 3-6), Lenin . .” These are three
and four year old children, mind you.

One big problem that U.U.A.B. faces is that when
they put on a show downtown, the cost of the show
is increased immensely. Therefore, only a few of the
concerts will be put on downtown and theese should
be even bigger acts than Dave Bromberg.
The main thing that people are forgetting is that
in years past, we never had problems with
overcrowded concerts. Very few of the shows were
financial successes. A lot of credit must be given to
Rich Saltus U.U.A.B. Music Chairman for bringing
back to Buffalo the best in Music.

America must take all steps necessary to prevent
any more nations from having to be subjected to
such a way of life as described above. If it means
uprooting the Allende regime in Chile and jailing all
of Allende’s cronies, then so be it. If it means
supplying military aid to Rhodesia to prevent
another Angola from happening, then so be it. Soviet
domination must be stopped. The Russian, Red
Chinese, and Cuban governments must be &lt;$adi&amp;fed.
Communism must be wiped off the face of this
earth.
America is not a perfect country. We do make
mistakes. We do have some boneheads like Senator
McCarthy, Richard Nixon, or more recently Anita
Bryant, who think it’s their business to suppress
certain people because of their beliefs. But the fact
is, this country is blessed by God. Nowhere in the
world is there a country as wonderful as this one.
The U.S. didn’t send tanks into Budapest in 19S6 or
Prague in 1968. The Russians did. The U.S. didn’t
march into Berlin in 194S and bludgeon thousands
of Germans to death, as the Russians did. The U.S.
did not build a wall across Berlin, as the Russians
did. We didn’t march into Cambodia and turn their
capital into a giant bloodbath, as the Khmer Rouge
did. The CIA isn’t sending intelligence agents into
Uganda to offer courses in terrorism, as the KGB is.
We aren’t taking a 1000-year old Ukrainian nation
and slowly destroying it, as the Russians are. And
why not? Because America stands for freedom and
dignity for all nations. If we aren’t going to save the
world from the horrible disease of Communism, then
who is?
I am not “a good soldier boy.” On the contrary,
I have chosen a career in business administration
over a military life. Also, I am not a person with “no
brains, just a flexible spinal cord” either. I deplore
many things that the government is doing, and I
speak out on various issues quite often, thus I am
not a “vegetating audience.” Thank God we enjoy
and not
life, liberty, and the pursuit of
just an illusion, for otherwise neither you not I
would be around to criticize the government today,
if we were not truly free.
And finally, I am not debating whether Bruce
Beyer is morally right or not. The fact is, we do have
laws in this country, laws which have been good
enough for 200 years to sustain this nation. Mr.
Beyer has broken some of these laws, and was tried,
convicted, and sentenced. Then he jumped bail,
which is also a crime. I see no reason why Mr. Beyer
should not have to pay his debt to society just as any
lawbreaker would have to. Why is he someone
special? Let him go to prison just as any other
criminal would have to. Fortunately all our heroic
fighting men didn’t run away as Bruce Beyer did, for
I am confident that if nobody had been there when
it came time to fight for this country, right at this
moment we’d be learning what the “illusion of
liberty” really means. The Ukrainian people and
other Slavic peoples know that meaning all too well.

Long playing Co-op
To the Editor.
Upon reading last Wednesday’s The Spectrum
article about Cavage’s lawsuit against the Record
Co-op, we were a bit irrate to turn the page and find
a good sized ad for Cavages’ Record sale. We feel it
had no right to be in The Spectrum. Our deep sense
of loyalty towards UB and in particular the Record
Co-op stems from their indirect gift of life to us.
You see, thanks to the money we saved at the Co-op,

we were able to accumulate enough money to
finance a life-saving operation for our mother. We
wonder how prompt Mr. Cavage would have been to
pay for this costly operation.
God only knows how many lives have been
saved by the Co-op’s low prices. Support the Co-op.
Isn’t there someone at home whose life you would
like to be long playing.

FEEDBACK
Zionism is not Judaism

Power to the People,

To the Editor.
Nan A Jan Kaparon

In their Oct. 26 letter to The Spectrum
"A
Jewish Homeland”
Prince and Granot adopt the
usual Zionist approach in attempting to rationalize
the brutal murder of the unarmed Arab inhabitants
of Palestine by Israeli Prime Minister Begin's Zionist
terrorist gangs, the colonialist imperialist usurpation
of Arab land and property, and the eviction of two
million Palestinian Christians and Moslems from
their native country: Palestine. Moreover, they
falsely identify Zionism and Judaism
ignoring the
fact that Judaism is a religion, and that Zionism is an
imperialist, colonialist, and racist political movement
which originated and flourished in Europe and is still
led by Europeans.
We would, therefore, like to call the readers'
attention to a well-known truth
namely, that even
today after 29 years of the State of Israel's
existence, there is a vast majority of Jews in the
Holy Land and in the entire world who are opposed
to Zionism and to the Zionist State.
now
makes
the
Nevertheless,
Zionism
preposterous claim that Zionism is synonymous with
Judaism, and that anti-Zionism is anti-Judaism.
Let us recall that the first objections and
oppositions to the racist objectives, doctrines and
program of Zionism were voiced by Jews
prominent Jewish intellectuals, prominent Jewish
thinkers and prominent Jewish organizations. Long
before Zionism had become a cancerous growth, it
was within the Jewish community that the claim of
Zionism to be coextensive with and identical to
Judaism was refuted. Today, only an infinitesimal
minority of Jews are enrolled in the Zionist
organization and consider themselves card-carrying
active Zionists. Even in this country where the
Zionist organization is as strong as it is anywhere
else, and perhaps much stronger than it is in many
countries,
the membership of the Zionist
organization is a minority membership within the
large body of American Jews.
We too reject the Zionist claim that Zionism is
synonymous with Judaism. We in the Arab World, be
we Jewish Arabs, Christian Arabs, or Moslem Arabs,
have nothing but reverence for Judaism as a faith, as
a holy religion, and as a tradition or religious and
spiritual values. As Jews, we are devoted to our
religion. As Christians, we revere Judaism which
Jesus proclaimed he came to fulfill not to destroy.
We revere Judaism as Moslems whose faith teaches
respect and veneration for all the prophets of
Judaism. We reject the Zionist claim that Zionism is
coextensive with Judaism and the Jewish people.
To refute the Zionist claim, we need only
mention one of the numerous atrocious crimes
perpetrated by the Zionists against the Jewish
people; The London Times reported in its Nov. 25,
1940 issue that the Zionist terrorists blew up the
S.S. Patna in Haifa harbour killing 268 Jewish
immigrants just because they refused to be
“Zionized.”
As Rabbi Elmer Berger, the founder of the
American Council for Judaism and the leading
Jewish anti-Zionist spokesman in the United States
puts it: “Because the facts
and the relevant law
speak for themselves, many of us have long been
anti-Zionists. Articulating our anti-Zionism as
opposition to these Zionist practices, we believe we
are articulating our deepest commitment to
humanistic, liberal, democratic values. The inequities
which Zionism has inflicted on Palestine and
Palestinians and the violence Zionism does to the
moral and ethical values of Judaism and Christianity
continue. We anti-Zionists will therefore continue
our opposition to Zionism. We are neither confused
by the orchestrated husteria nor stampeded.”
Indeed, Zionism is not synonymous with
Judaism; for it can only be synonymous with
RACISM and COLONIALISM in their most savage

‘The Spectrum 9 decaying
To the Editor
After

reading

through

the

Wednesday,

November 2nd issue of The Spectrum, I became
thoroughly disgusted when I found on page 12 a full
page ad declaring this date to be Palestine Day. This
ad has at the top of the page a picture of an Israeli
soldier and a young girl. The picture was evidently
placed in the ad to stir up some emotion for the
Palestinian cause and against Israel. No mention is
made that a) for all we know the young girl could
have attracted the soldier and b) under what
situation the picture was taken.
Being a student at this University for the past
two years, I have seen many an argument made over
a policy that The Spectrum has had about accepting
advertisements. I have seen ads for Oui and Playboy

We do not want to live in a world where
terrorists, criminals and all countries have atomic
weapons. Nor do we want to live in the police state
that would be necessary to guard against the
diversion or theft and misuse of such incredibly
dangerous materials.

and ads for ROTC and the Army being argued over.
In any case, The Spectrum in the past has shown a
little discression in what ads are printed. Therefore I
feel that this ad should never have been printed. It is
both one sided in nature, and against the guidelines
that I have seen used in the past by The Spectrum.
In conclusion 1 would like to say that I
personally feel that The Spectrum is decaying and
rotting under its present leadership. This newspaper
seems to be making a lot of mistakes in terms of its
direction and the purpose that it is here for. It is
time that the leadership, especially Mr. Kline, wake
up and realize who they are serving, what The
Spectrum ’s main reason for existing is, and to use a
little common sense and intelligence in its editorial
direction.

Abortion is murder
To the Editor

caters to those humans. The same treatment should
to unborn humans, otherwise a definite
inconsistency is pointed to. And while most of the
unborn children cannot function physically on their
own, neither can those of us who need iron lungs,
artificial kidneys, etc. The unborn are as human as
we are, because percentage of development does not
determine humanness, at least not in our country’s
be given

Recently I wrote a letter concerning the
Committee to Reverse the Bakke Decision. The
responses 1 got dealt not with the Committee, but
with a section of my letter discussing federally
funded abortions. As abortion seems to be a big
topic, I am requesting space for a letter on it, if The
Spectrum is responsible enough to print something
in contrast to its obvious pro-abortion policy.
I noticed a contradiction between the two
responses to me (The Spectrum, October 19). One
young woman condemned the unavailability of any
free sterilization operations, while another young
woman condemned the federal government’s liberty
in financing them on demand. Of course, such
inconsistencies tend to occur when a people’s
position on an issue is weak.
And to set the record straight, it is silly to
accuse anyone as much against abortion as I am, of
ever taking a chance on fathering an illegitimate
child who may end up being aborted. Accordingly, I
practice the only safe method of birth control, that
of premarital refrainment from sexual pleasure
which can produce unwanted pregnancies. And I DO
remind my male friends that they may pay if they
play. I don’t condemn anyone just for having
premarital sex, but I do condemn those who don’t
accept the responsibilities that go with it.
I will agree that a male is SO percent responsible
for an unwanted pregnancy (although most girls’
fathers give you a much higher percentage).
However, it is the female’s responsibility last, for she
will suffer most. No, it isn’t fair, but I can’t alter the
human anatomy.
Federally funded childbirths may cost us more
than similarly funded abortions (although “ten times
more” is slightly overdoing it). But I’ll pay the
excess, as it’s for a much more constructive cause.
Actually, it’s all irrelevant, because financial
statements do not decide who lives and who gets
murdered.
I question the title, “Right to Abortion,” given
to a letter responding to me. No one has the right to
abortion for the simple reason that our law gives no
one the right to murder.
Anyone who denies the humanness of unborn
children obviously hasn’t seen photos of them. These
photos clearly show the definite human form of
fetuses only three weeks old. Admittedly, they
aren’t fully developed human beings, but neither are
the handicapped, the blind, etc., and our system

written laws.
Walter Simpson’s pro-abortion piece appears to
have been only a front for the centuries-old practice
of denouncing the Catholic Church’s policies. Mr.
Simpson’s friends, who have dug their own holes,
typify his irresponsibility and immaturity.
Perhaps many fetuses will inevitably be better
off dead, but that’s their decision to make and
their’s only. Taking that choice away hardly
constitutes an act of love. Besides, who are any of
these to make their decision for them?????
This world is indeed cruel at times. But killing
people to spare them from it is an irresponsible
action. It seems more responsible to love those
people. And it’s the people like Mr. Simpson, who
will kill before they do everything they can to better
this world, that are the main causes of the troubles
which need to be corrected. Perhaps Mr. Simpson is
jealous of unborn peoples’ potential to love and to
help this world where he has failed to.
There are alternatives to abortion. The best is
adoption, which would satisfy those who want for
children and relieve those who can’t give them
satisfactory upbringing. Another responsible action
would be the channeling of time and money into
pregnancy counseling centers and child abuse centers
instead of abortion clinics.
Mr. Simpson’s “respect for life” would be better
termed “respect for quality of life.” Our local
representatives have “respect for the right of life,”
and our country’s law claims to believe the latter to
be more important.
Perhaps when Mr. Simpson changes his attitude
from “kill, kill” to “work to improve,” I will accept
his opinion as a responsible one. When he has done
all that he can to improve the world and eliminate
the need for the abortion decision, I will listen to
him. Life is more important than a jar of salad
dressing, but you must have the proper attitude to
see why this holds in EVERY case, Mr. Simpson.
People’s lives are only as important as you help make
them.

�Keeping Squire Hall
safe, secure building

fiuiff, nightmare

The reality ofpolice patrol
by Richard Floersch
Spectrum Staff Writer

What happens when a person who is weaned on
suburbia and “educated” at a university that
purposely shelters its students from the hard-core
realities of life, is - suddenly thrust into an
environment which it has been harbored from? He
learns. He learns about race relations. He learns
about loneliness. He learns that knowledge derived
from books is glaringly unlike first-hand information
gathered from the streets.
Recently, a product of archetypal suburban
upbringing had the opportunity to spend a Friday
night patrolling the Buffalo city streets in a police
car. Not just any metropolitan avenues, the streets
were arteries from which the blood had seemingly
been drained.
The police precinct building bombards one’s
senses. The mildew green walls and dimly lit
flourescence coupled with street lights peeking
through the almost fully drawn shades combine to
paint a picture of dreariness. The sterile smell and
dank atmosphere make it difficult to remember that
the building does not house a funeral home.

announced the deep, almost computerized voice over

someone was requiring medical assistance from
within the passenger side of a car. Coupled with the
four people close to the victim were inquisitive
onlookers who watched as the ambulance crew
extracted the elderly woman from the car, lowered
her onto a stretcher, and wheeled her onto the
deeply gouged pavement into the ambulance.
“Who is going to ride in the ambulance car with
her?” shouted the ambulance driver as he hoisted the
stretcher and unconscious woman aboard the
vehidle.
No one answered. The four people who seemed
to be concerned about her were in reality, not.

The last thirty years or so, it is
common to hear of new countries
forming as the antiquated colonial
system collapses. This is true especially
in Asia and Africa where large sectors of
continents have been divided into a
multitude of states.
The rush for nationhood has caused
interests of minorities within these
states to often be neglected. The
majority. is only interested in the
inherent feature that makes the nation a
cohesive unit, be if political, religious or
economic in character.
The plight of Palestinian and other
Arab groups have been well documented
by the news media. But what about the
one and one half million Sephardi

and Asia when these other republics
were formed? It should be noted here

Arabic counterpart and were forced to
flee with relatively few possesions.

In Iraq and Syria many were hung
publically for conspiracy and “Zionist”
sentiments. Between 1948 and 1953 was
the time most of them took flight. Since
they no longer enjoyed the rights and
prosperity the respective governments
had once given them, the Jewish people
from Arab lands had no choice but to
migrate to Israel where today they and
their decendents constitute the majority
of the Jewish population. No attempt
has been made by the governments for
retribution to its previous citizens so
dishonored. Today, there are ghettos in
Damascus and Iraq were the few Jewish
inhabitants are forced to live. They can
not leave and have few priveleges
afforded them.
Since ancient times Jews have lived
and worked in lands that are today Iran
and the Arabic countries. These people
have an unbroken chain of occupation
since this early era.
Aside from being a Hebrew scribe
and Prophet in the Torah (Hebrew

It’s no surprise that building security is very much a concern
for Squire Hall's Acting Director Robert Henderson. Recently,
Henderson outlined some of the areas where he has been working
closely with the University Police force and others to keep Squire
Hall secure.
One method of increasing safety and efficiency in the building
was the acquisition of walkie-talkies by Squire Hall’s night
managers. ‘This is, however, in no way making members of the
student staff campus police officers,” said Henderson. Noting that
some people have misinterpreted the role of night managers,
Henderson cautions that ‘‘night managers and University Police
have separate responsibilities. Walkie-talkies were instituted only as
a means of communication; night managers can now be called in an
area where the PA is not easily heard.”
Another aspect of security is the question of illegal keys. The
Squire Hall staff is making a renewed effort to cut off the
production of illegal keys. By working closely with the University
lock and key crew and the Lock and Key Association of Western
New York, some positive results have been obtained. Nevertheless,
many locksmiths in the area maintain the attitude that if they don’t
make the keys, others will.
Irresponsible students
officers
of
student
Further difficultues arise when
organizations pass keys on from year to year. Those officers who
have legal channels for access are oftimes coerced into allowing
access to others.
“Students are reluctant to stop their buddies; peer pressure
seems to be too strong to fight,” Henderson said. “Students need to
be hard-nosed about letting others in rooms based on their own

legality.”
Night managers and maintenance are usually the ones accused
of thefts, but the same students who complain may be the ones
who allow illegal entry. “Students demand freedom of access, but,”
states Henderson, “they have a remarkable reluctance to take on
responsibility themselves.”

Unlike other student unions across the country, sections of
Squire Hall cannot be closed off. Therefore, whenever anyone is in
the building, all areas are open to vandalism and theft.
The Squire Hall staff is constantly discussing breaches of
security and it would be prudent for all to be alert to strangers in
the Union. The best security measure would be a basic willingness
on the part of students to look out for the interests of other

students.
Until that happens, Henderson warns, “We’ve never hid from
anyone that if you’re in the building with something of value, you
better be responsible for it.”

Bringing back the
IRC radio station
by Daniel Hannafln
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Whatever happened to IRC’s radio station? Anyone tuning their
radio to 640 AM might ask this question. WIRC has not been
broadcasting since it shut down last May for the summer.
Kevin Palmer, the station’s new chief engineer, is trying to get the
run-down equipment operable, on a temporary basis, by next semester.
The station has had no engineer for a few years, and the equipment has
suffered because of this, according to Mike Kuprijanow, general
manager of the station.
Kuprijanow is in the process of seeking a grant from a private
foundation. With the $15,000 that he hopes to receive, Kuprijanow
wants to make WIRC something which he feels it has never been
before, “a real radio station.” He says the equipment the station owns
now is the absolute minimum amount needed to run such an operation.
Palmer claims that his high school radio station was “much.better
equipped than WIRC.”
Governors plugged in
If the station receives the grant, a permanent studio will be built in
the old IRCB offices in Goodyear Hall More equipment, of a higher
quality, will be purchased. Palmer says that much of the equipment
presently owned is not of a commercial caliber, but was intended for
private consuiisers.
Whether or not it receives the grant, Kuprijanow says, the station
will be operating next semester. Its $1000 IRC budget for this year will
be used to set up the temporary studio, and purchase a phone line to

Governors Residence Halls and The Student Club in the Ellicott
Complex. A phone line is a cable system which will allow students in
Governors to receive the station on radios plugged into electrical
outlets. Last year the station broadcasted only to Clement and
Goodyear Halls. WIRC does not broadcast' through the air, says
Kuprijanow, because running the signal through the electrical system is
cheaper.

Stranded airwaves
Because of this carrier current system which is used, only dorm
students can listen to the station. Kuprijanow feels that this is a
disadvant ge, but that he can use this situation to serve the students
better than any other station could. He says that WBFO, which
broadcasts from Squire Hall, “doesn’t pretend to be a student radio
station.”
Kuprijanow says the station will broadcast information important
to students, such as activities on campus and class cancellations. Steve
Chick, the station manager, wants to play the music that students want
to hear. The station will be sending out questionnaires on the subject
of programming format in the near future.
WIRC is planning a promotion program for early next semester,
giving away free albums and bumper stickers to make people aware of
the station’s rebirth. Anyone interested in working on the station is
urged to call Mike Kuprijanow at 831-2398.

‘Transition *77* not a hit
by Karen Major
Spectrum Staff Writer

‘Transition 77” was held last
Thursday at the Eliicott Complex
to help students cope with college
life. Judging by the attendance,
students don’t feel they need any
help in this endeavor.
Although four workshops were
organized, only two were held,
due to lack of participation. “It’s
a shame to put all this work into
the program and only have
show,”
thitteen
people
commented Joseph Krakowiak,
Director of Orientation. “We
spent around five hundred dollars
promoting the program.”
“Struggling with Stress,” one
of the workshops held explained
the importance of dealing with
stress. “People take in stress and
keep it locked inside. What they
have to learn is to let that stress
out,” stated Steve Schanly, a
graduate student in Psychology.
The consequences of not
dealing with stress can be serious.
The most common result is an
ulcer. “I went to a doctor when 1
was sixteen and he told me if I
kept worrying the way 1 was, I

would have an ulcer by the time I
was eighteen,” a participant said.
There are many ways to cope
with stress. “Each of us has our
own ways to cope. It could be by
reaching out to someone, by
or
smoking
by
drinking,”
explained Krakowiak. “Coping is
so individualized.”
Flex and relax
Phsyical activities can be used
to relieve stress. One person said
that he would go to the Bowling
Alley to relieve his tensions.
“Hitting those pins as hard as 1
could helped me,” he stated.
“Coming into a new situation
can produce tremendous stress,”
said Schanly. “People have to
readjust their lives when they
come to the University. Some
may face the loneliness of leaving
their families. They find they have
to grow closer to friends instead
of the family.”
and
Keeping

major source of anxiety for
students at a large competitive

person’s

The workshop demonstrated
an exercise that may help relieve
stress. It consisted of tensing the
muscles of certain parts of the
body (such as the arm) and
holding the tension for five to ten
seconds. “While tense, think of a
happy thought. When you release
the tension, focus on the warm,
relaxed feeling that spreads over

“Repeat this on all the muscles of

“It may take some practice to
do this exercise well. But unlike

do it.” said Krakowiak. ‘That’s
the good thing about it .”

Sunshine House is a part of the University community whose purpose is helping
people deal with problems in everyday life, as well as emergency situations. Some of the
areas we deal with include: problems with family and personal relationships; emotional
difficulties; rape counseling; problems related to drug use; and information about specific
drugs. We also have an extensive referral file listing hundreds of agencies in the Buffalo
area for those seeking additional assistance.

if you are just lonely, give us a call at 831-4046, or drop by Sunshine House at 106

Strong soccer league
in intramural playoffs
The soccer intramural program is about to complete its second
year. Last fall, the league started with ten teams but ended up the
season with only eight. This year, the league has expanded to sixteen
teams and remains strong with the playoffs coming up.
According to Scott Stevens, co-director of Intramural Soccer,
almost 300 men and two women are playing intramural soccer this
year. When asked about the sudden demand for a soccer league on
campus, Stevens replied, “I guess it has a lot to do with the big
upsurgence of soccer throughout the country. People are finding out
that the best way to leam about the sport is to play it and college is
especially conducive to organizing teams and leagues.”
Stevens also said that he was given a lot of help and support in
setting up the league from Assistant Director of Intramural Sports and
Recreational Services Steve Allen. “He was able to get us almost
everything we needed,” said Stevens. “He made the job real easy,”
added Bob Rose, the other director of the league. “We had a conflict
with the Rugby Club about the field we were playing on. Steve solved
the problem almost immediately.”
Rose and Stevens both agreed that for next year it would be
helpful if the University set up another field at Amherst so that the
Rugby Club and soccer league, both established now, would not
compete for the same field.
The soccer playoffs are starting this week but as of now only two
of the four playoff teams have been determined. In the 3:30 league,
the Condors clinched first place with a 5-0 record. The team, which
averaged over five goals a game, is led by captain Clem Henry and
leading scorer Martines Pereira. The second place spot is still up for
grabs between the Kenmore Kickers (3-0-1), last year’s champions, and
The Arab League (3-1). These teams will play each other in their last
regular season game.
In the 4:30 league, the Fargonauts, last year’s runners up, also had
an undefeated season (5-0). The Fargonauts pride themselves on their
defense as they allowed only two goals in the five games. Goalie Tim
Finein and fullback Frank Massaro lead the defensive corps. The
second place battle in the 4:30 league is between Hellas (3-1) and the
Space Cadets (3-1). These two teams will also meet before the playoffs.

Bullsfinish second in district
by Joy Clark
Sports Editor

The volleyball Bulls secured a berth in the State
Championships when they finished second in the
District Tournament at Clark Hall Saturday. In the
final round of that tournament, Buffalo was
demolished by the Blue Devils of Fredonia, 15-7,
15-2. That loss will give Buffalo a lower seeding than
Fredonia and thus weaken their chances at the State
Tournament this weekend at Siena College.
After the first round of play, Buffalo was on the
top of its pool and Fredonia occupied the same spot
in the other pool. Buffalo won five of the six games
it played in that round, their lone loss coming
against Buffalo State. The Blue Devils won all six of
their games.
In the quarterfinals of the tournament, Buffalo
defeated a weak D’Youville team without much
trouble, 15-7, 15-2. The D’Youville squad had most
of their problems with serve reception, which
allowed Buffalo to score six aces in the first game
alone. D’Youville was completely overwhelmed in
the second game when freshman Mary Ellen Weber
began that game with four unreturnable serves.
Buffalo went on to score seven points before
D’Youville could tally.

Big

gime

In the semifinals against Alfred, UB again
overwhelmed its opponent early in the game. With
junior Sue Trabert serving, the Bulls scored nine
quick points to give them an eight point lead, 9-1.
Buffalo was helped by Alfred’s many mistakes,
including two illegal hits. But the Bulls didn’t need
much help with strong serving and spiking.
In the second game against Alfred, it was
freshman Barb Starbuck who was serving when the
Bulls built up an early lead. With the score knotted
at 2-2, Starbuck served up six points, again helped

out by the Saxons' mistakes. The Bulls showed some
excellent blocking in that game, especially by Wanda
Mesmer and Hilary Schlesinger. "We beat them. we
came up for that [the big] one,” commented coach
Peter Weinrcich, about that win. which clinched a
spot in the State Tournament for Buffalo.
Buffalo looked especially strong in both those
games. They took advantage of Alfred’s misques and
while at the same time making very few of their
own. Buffalo’s blocking (which had been their weak
point earlier in the season) was especially good.
In the finals, however, it was Buffalo’s turn to
look bad: The Blue Devils had eleven points on tlic
board after only four players had served, while the
Bulls had only one, on an unretumed serve of
Trabert’s.

UB's turn
Throughout that eleven point onslaught, Buffalo
would look as if it had scored with a powerful spike
or a well-timed block, but then the Blue Devils
would match those plays with equally brilliant saves.
Late in the game, Buffalo rallied to score five points,
but as Fredonia needed only two more to win at that
point, the effort was both too little and too late.
Coach Peter Weinreich explained his team’s
problems as “mental difficulties,” that began about
half way through that first game. “They [Fredonia]
had some good serving and very enthusiastic team
and we let it get to us,” he said.
The second game was even more embarrassing
for the Bulls, as the Blue Devils scored nine posits
with their first server and didn’t even need to go
through a full rotation to defeat Buffalo 15-2.
In spite of the loss in the finals, Weinreich was
pleased with the way his team played, especially
considering that they played 12 games in one day.
Last year, Buffalo won the consolation round in the
State Tournament but this year, Weinreich hopes to
make it to the winner’s bracket.

spirited and competitive squad.
The team, which was demoted last
year to club status, is returning to
varsity level. Plans for a women’s
team are still in the works.
Fencing has often been called
the active man’s game of chess

because it involves a great degree
of calculation and strategy. Yet
anyone can compete successfully
because
speed, timing, and
coordination are the only essential
skills, while sheer brute force is of
little or no use. For this reason,

our country could follow over the next SO years.
One is what he calls the “hard path,” which
resembles current federal policy. The hard path gives
lip service to energy conservation and calls for a
rapid expansion of centralized high technologies
(like nuclear power) to increase energy production,
especially the production of electricity. Lovins
describes the hard path as “brittle.” He says that “it
must fail, with widespread and serious dismption, if
any of its exacting technical and social conditions
are not satisfied continuously and indefinitely.”
Lovins contrasts this with the “soft path” which
he describes as “flexible, resilient, sustainable, and
benign.” The soft path combines a serious and
thorough-going commitment to efficient energy use
with a rapid development of renewable energy
sources (such as solar, wind, biomass conversion)
that are matched in scale and energy quality with the
needs they are to satisfy. Rather than large,
centralized high technologies, Lovins agrees with
economist E.F. Schumacher that “small is
beautiful.” As far as fossil fuels are concerned.

&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;

Benjamin DeMott on experience and imagination
by Richard Korman

As
DeMott wrote in
September’s issue of Psychology
Today
the trouble with big
pictures is that their abstractness
tends to mask the way things
happen
the immediacies, the
surprises, the daily increments,
the feelings engaged.”

In his lecture Thursday night,
Benjamin DeMott swept past the
topic of. “The Changing Student”
by trivializing it.
“In no serious sense do
students ever change,” DeMott
told about 100 people gathered in
O’Brian Hall’s Moot Court,
“because the student is part of
modern culture.”
Talk of the changing student,
of his new conservatism,
careerism, or intellectual decline,
is not a waste of time, but it
misses the real point, he said. The
significance of our preoccupation
with the changing student is that
it is symptomatic of “a
culture-wide suspicion that we are
being prevented from knowing
what has happened to us and
our experience is being ripped
off.”
Modern culture is 'the culture
of experience, he said. Our job,
and the job of the Humanities, in
DeMott’s opinion, is to restore
imagination and imagined
to primacy,
experience
for
“without imagination, there is no
experience worth having.”
DeMott,

a widely published

writer and critic, is currently a
professor of English at Amherst
College and a columnist for the
Atlantic magazine. His appearance
was the University’s prestigious
James Fenton Lecture, this year
made part of the dedicationof the

new Samuel L. Clemens Hall, the

What

.

What does an intellectual mean when he speaks of the
imagination? This bothered me as I was listening to Benjamin
DeMott, for I felt he never adequately explained. He did say, in
answer to a question, that he did not mean the imagination of a
child, but imagination which requires the exercise of the intellect.
But by this does he mean imagination based on experience, or that
independent of experience, if such a thing can exist? Is it important
because of what is being imagined, or because there is value in the
act of imagination itself?
1 cannot settle these questions now, and so only offer this
quote from R.G. Collingwood’s essay, “The Historical
Imagination”;
“The resemblance between the hisotiran and the novelist .. .
here reaches its culmination. Each of them makes it his business to
construct a picture which is partly a narrative of events, partly a
description of situations, exhibition of motives, analysis of
characters. Each aims at making his picture a coherent whole, where
every character and every situation is so bound up with the rest that
this character in this situation cannot but act in this way, and we
cannot imagine him as acting otherwise. The novel and the history
must both of them make sense; nothing is admissible in either
except what is necessary, and judge of this necessity is in both cases
the imagination.’'
-Richard Korman

DeMott told a story about his
young friend, David, whose wife

Faculty upholds R decision Statewide health fee

overwhelmingly rejected a motion Wednesday that

academic standing in each class before the last day to

Association Director of Academic Affairs Bob

Jonathan Reichart.
to
“Reichart suggested that the Senate
might not be responsive to a change in the “R” date,
but it might be receptive to the idea of establishing a

University-wide policy.”
Sinkewicz likened speaking before the Executive
Committee to “talking to a brick wall.” He claimed
he tried to explain to the Committee that “students
were not abusing the R privilege.” He added, “the
majority of complaints I have received were not

from students who hadn’t done the work, but from

and
interpretations
students
whose
expectations were different from the instructor.”

Balancing things?
Reichart said, “There are few faculty members
that give that many shocking exams. It’s a question
of balancing things. The faculty feels that many
students are shopping for classes and by moving up
the “R” date, we will open up important spaces for
students that have been closed out of classes.”
Professor of Psychology, Jack Meachan, a
member of the Committee, said, “The decision to
change the date was not random. This will prevent
students from getting hurt by taking on more work
than they can handle. When a student drops a course
late in the semester, it is just extra work for the

faculty.”

The belief among the Senate is that this policy is
lenient one. Reichart said, “Many universities
throughout the nation have withdrawal dates of two
to three weeks.” Meacham believed that “six weeks
is ample time for students to assess if their level of
preparedness is high enough, and students should not
need to get an idea of where they stand.”
a

Fairness urged
The Spectrum found, however, in a survey of
local colleges (Niagara University, Canisius College,
at Buffalo) that time allotted for
and
withdrawal at those schools exceeded the amount

allowed here by at least two weeks.
Department of Mathematics Professor Nicholas
Kazarinoff, also a Committee member, commented,
“I hope that professors are fair.” Kazarinoff urged
faculty members to give exams before the “R” date.
He also noticed “an insufficient involvement of the
faculty with academic counseling.”
The major complaint of the faculty is that
students are abusing the “R” privilege. Dean of
Undergraduate
Education Walter Kunz said,
“Considering the level of intelligence at this
University, most students should be able to pass
almost any course. Students are concerned npt with

According to Reichart, “students must
to
adapt; the easy way out is to get an “R.” Tfie “R”
system is a flexible system of escape and if the
students find out too late about a problem, that’s
just too bad. Life is not fair.”
Kunz claimed students will adjust. He said,
“Once students learn to assess their standing, the
policy in the long run will be better for both
students and faculty.” Sinkewicz viewed the issue as
“another example of students getting screwed. The
students have no recourse and the Faculty Senate
feels that’s too bad.”

boycott planned by SA
by Bradley Bermudez
Spectrum Staff Writer
A statewide boycott of the controversial SUNY health fee is being
organized by the Student Association of the State Universities (SASU).
The additional $17 health fee was instituted by the SUNY Board of
Trustees this year. The Spectrum disclosed September 16 that revenue
from the fee will not go to health services at all, but to the general
SUNY fund to. offset a $2.3 million cutback in SUNY funding.
A fiscal committee staff of SUNY officials conducted a study last
Spring of colleges throughout the nation and determined that most had
a separate health fee added to tuition. The Board, therefore, decided to
add such a fee to the tuition charges at all State schools. The Board
established three rates, based on the cost per student for health services
at each campus. The yearly rate at this University is $17. University
officials state that the money will be used for improvement of health
facilities.

Services cutback
Members of the Geneseo Student Association have gathered
information showing that health service budgets and personnel have
been cut back by ten percent in the last two years. “Thirty-five
full-time physicians have been dismissed from various State schools
during this two-year period,” according to Geneseo SASU Delegate
Robert Andrews.
SASU officials are also fighting the health fee on grounds that it
goes against SUNY policy. According to the Board of Trustees Uniform
Fee and Tuition Act of 1963, all University costs are to be included in
tuition fees. The Act specifically states that there will be no health fee,
according to Clifford.
In response to the newly initiated fee, SASU members attended an
open meeting of the Board of Trustees of SUNY in New York City on
October 26. SASU delegates presented petitions containing 7,000
signatures “to stir the Board to action,” said Andrews. The Board
requested that the State Legislature appropriate funds to cover the
health fee.

�Judge hears claim
Judge Norman Stiller reserved decision Friday on the claim of
Cavages Record Store owner, Carl Cavage, that the Record Coop is
liable for $100,000 in additional property damages to his store.
Cavage has claimed that the day after the Record Coop was
re-opened in the basement of Squire Hall in 1975, students cut
phone lines to his store across the street in University Plaza,
smashed the storefront window, and harrassed employees and
customers by picketing.
Stib-Board lawyer for the Co-Op, Richard Lippes, expects a
decision on the claim within two to four weeks.
Lippes claims that even if students did damage the University
Plaza store, they were not acting on behalf of the Co-Op. “The
organization didn’t ratify the action,” he said. “Cavage is trying to
amend his amendment by saying ‘students were acting as agents of
the Co-Op.’
According to Lippes, Judge Stiller said that the Cavage theory
was “unique.” He continued that Cavage will try to prove that the
people who caused the damages were students. “They have pictures
of people picketing,” he said. “But pictures are pure speculation.
How do 1 know they were students? Besides, even if they

Fee boycott .rr™
The ultimate goal now, according to Clifford, is to have the fee
repealed before second semester tuition bills are mailed. Clifford said
that he has encountered resistance from University officials. Assistant

Vice President of Finance and Management Len Snyder stated “If the
fee is not paid, the University will refuse to process transcripts for the
students. University policy states that students who have any charge on
their accounts will not be issued a transcript.”
If it comes to that point, Clifford said, “We’re going to call their
bluff. We want to prove that the students are a force to be reckoned
with. We must fight for what we believe in. This is the beginning of
student unionization. Through this boycott, the students and SA can
gain solidarity.”
There will be no rallying, according to Clifford. Forums will be
held, information will be distributed, and posters will be displayed
throughout rile campus, explaining the pros and cons of the boycott.
Clifford is quick to add that last week’s petition drive demanding a
reaeal of that health fee at this University did not fail “600 to 700
signatures were obtained in a very short time with little preparation,”
according to Clifford.
Other SUNY schools are joining in the fight against the fee.
Buffalo State'Student Association officials are calling for students to
boycott the-fee by distributing literature dud displaying posters. An SA

“The day appears to be passing

�Declining membership,

Staff Writer

“It’s an oasis.” So the Director
of Squire Hall, Jim Gruber
describes the new Craft Center on
the Amherst Campus. An an oasis
the Center seems to be, for the
mentally exhausted, dried up
minds of academians.
However, the same description
cannot be used when considering
the financial situation of the Craft
Center. The Center has been
experiencing financial problems,
operating at a deficit since its
inepetion.
One of the few such
organizations in New York that is
not funded directly by the state,
the new craft center’s financial
plight is exacerbated by a marked
decrease in membership which it
experienced in moving to
Amherst. Having 1,100 members
during its final year in Norton,
membership last year totalled
400. The situation seems to be
improving. Director of the Craft

�Fahey favored in
district race here
by ManhaO Adler
Spectrum Staff Writer

Tha contest for University District Councilman may be the most
interesting race in recent Buffalo political history. To say the least, the
contestants vying for the post are anything but conventional
politicians. To illustrate how unusual the situation is, Eugene M. Fahey
(D-L), a twenty-six-year-old political neophyte is the odds-on favorite
to win.
This projection is due to the fact that Fahey is being challenged by
Marcella M. Wisniewski (C), a widowed mother of eight children, and
Dann W. Reece (R), a twenty-one-year-old student at this University.
While Reece and Wisniewski can be admired for their personal
fortitude, they hardly can be considered formidable political
competition. In order to learn more about this political phenomenon,
The Spectrum interviewed all three candidates, as the campaign was
winding down toward election day.

Fahey believes
Althbugh Fahey has never run for public office before, he feels
that he has the experience to be an effective Councilman. (He was an
aide to present University District Councilman William Price.) Fahey
stated that the major problem in the district was the “neighborhood
deterioration” that has resulted in both “physical and social harm.”
The goal of his term as district councilman would be to reverse this
deterioration and to strengthen the area neighborhoods so that
residents can once again be proud of their community. He mentioned
“the many elderly people living on fixed incomes, the shrinking tax
base of the city, and the problems of absentee landlords” as the major
obstacles to be overcome if Buffalo’s blight is to be improved. “The
problems Buffalo had,” Fahey stressed, “arc not unique. The whole
Northeast needs help, but until Buffalo starts helping itself, no outside
aid will help very much.”
Fahey believes that the city presently is at the crossroads in its
history. He asserted that “the neighborhoods of the city are in
transition; they can either be improved or be allowed to decline. It is
now or never for the city, if something is not done now to help
Buffalo, it will be too late.” He admitted that a district councilman
alone could not “solve the many problems Buffalo has,” but he truly
believes “the something” Buffalo needs is his election to the Common
Council.
Wimiewski
Wisniewski believes she would be an excellent councilman because
she truly understands “the hopes, concerns, and fears of the people of
the district.” Asa twenty-three year resident of the University District,
she stated she has “great insight into the community.” She emphasized
that “I have faced many of the same problems that presently concern a
majority of district residents.”
“The way to make Buffalo better is to make Buffalo safer,”
Wisniewski asserted, as she called for an increase in both Fire and
Police services. She stressed that “It is of utmost importance to
increase the manpower in these departments.” She believes that if
Buffalo neighborhoods are made safe, “the people and industries that
now want to leave the area, could be convinced to stay.”
Dann Reece wants to become a “grassroots councilman, who
would be in direct and constant contact with the people of the
University District.” He believes that he could be the most visible
councilman the district ever had. To support this assertion, Reece
pointed out that during the campaign, he attempted to speak with
almost every resident, during walking tours.
He stated that he would not “sit behind some desk in City Hall,”
but that he would “actively try to listen to the people of the district .”
Reece declared his number one priority would be to make Buffalo
an economically attractive city. He predicted that “the exodus of
people and industry from the area could be stopped, if taxes were
lowered, rather than raised. Buffalo can no longer afford to be strapped
with high taxes.”
The future
All three candidates stressed the fact that they are totally
independent from “party politics” which has turned many people
against City Hall. Each candidate has achieved success despite the fact
ttat they have received little or no support from their respective party
organizations. While this might well be an asset during the campaipi,
the eventual winner may have a difficult time receiving support from
the party machines, because of theh independent stance.

Buffalo's Next Mayor?

At Squire rally

Eve calls Buffalo dead
‘

Democratic candidate for Mayor, Arthur O.
Eve, referred to Buffalo as a “dead city” in a
rally held in the Squire Hall fountain area last
Thursday afternoon. His five-minute appearance
to drum up student support in tomorrow’s
election was sparsely attended and lacked any
new twists to his standard campaign procedure.
Eve. extolled the virtues of his “positive
approach campaign,” while criticizing his
opponents, James D. Griffin and Robert W.
Phelan, for instigating fear in the voting public
with their mudslinging tactics.
Eve’s bid
On a more personal level. Eve declared that
if his bid for election failed, it was not his loss,
but Buffalo’s. He made references to his

DeMott.

in-house team,” or a committee to
form “global perspectives.” “The

call goes out to “beef up the

high school and continue into the
first year of post-graduate life, are
installed. The idea is to “change

keep the pressure on the poor

then called Buffalo a dead city, but followed by
saying that his responsibility as mayor was to

Late for an appointment downtown, Eve
gave hurried answers to the few questions that
were posed after his prepared statement. In
replying to a query concerning gay rights. Eve
stated that he favored equal rights for everyone.
Eve was also in favor of the investigation
being conducted by the District Attorney’s office
regarding irregularities in the mayoral primary
race. However, he did avoid commenting on the
alleged presence of Democratic boss Joseph
Crangje’s lieutenants in his campaign.

Although SUNY-entral officials claim that fee monies,
which range from $12 to $20 on various campuses, will be
used to improve health facilities statewide, they and the
legislators fully admit that the fee has been implemented to
offset a $2.3 million cutback in the State University budget.

All students must be made aware that the fee is not
covered by any available financial aid, including the Tuition
Assistance Program (TAP). Therefore, funding that should
be guaranteed by the State Legislature but for some
political turn is not, is instead being pulled from
students' pockets, or from the pockets of their parents.
Students and their parents, as residents of this state, pay
taxes to fill budgets such as SUNY's. Now they are being
taxed twice to fill a funding gap created when some other
organization's lobby in Albany was effective enough to draw
$2.3 million from SUNY. (This is commonly termed a
cutback in funding due to insufficient revenues, but the real
story is...)

United Nations resolution that would have restricted
trade with South Africa. The substance of this
resolution if approved would have been the
unification of world response to the brutality
inflicted by the white minority toward the black
majority in South Africa.
Considering the noise we have been subjected to
lately concerning human rights, one might express
skepticism about this action by the United States
(life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness). There is,
however, the matter of billions of dollars of
American (In God We Trust) investments in South
Africa, which deal with the exportation of such
commodities as chromium, diamonds, and assorted
chemicals. The obvious conflict that emerges is the
conflict that exists between economic interests and
human interests. In the case of South Africa, the

Promoting prejudice
To the Editor

I’ve always considered myself to be a relatively
open minded and liberal individual. I’ve accepted the
minor flaws of The Spectrum as a part of the
learning rocess. Nevertheless, it seems to me that you
should be especially wary of what outsiders submit
for copy.
Specifically, I refer to the advertisement placed
by the Organization of Arab Students. 1 cannot
condemn anyone for their beliefs to do so is to be
—

The new, so-called "student health fee" is really a tuition
increase. For SUNY and legislative officials to label the
increase a "health fee" and then admit that the anticipated
revenue will not be used to augment health services is only
to place the rubber stamp of officialdom on a blatant lie.

United States (We, the people) decided in favor of
the economic interests involved at the expense of the
human interests, which are namely, the well being of
the black majority in South Africa.
So what does this mean? This is what this
decision means to me:
1. We arc the home of exploiters and cowards
2. We accept death, apartheid, and the pursuit
of suffering
3. We trust only money
4. We, the people, are those who maintain a
financial strangle hold on the rest of the world
For those who remain convinced of the validity
of my four propositions, they only need to ask any

matter. Assuredly, they will concur with my
assessment of the guiding principles of our nation.

classified as a fascist. However, to publish an ad that
features a soldier harassing a little girl with the idea
in mind to prejudice the reader against the sober’s
nationality (and, therefore, religion) is to be guilty
of the same offense. You are allowing an unfair and
unreasonable representation of a people to be

presented to the public.
The goal, as I understand it, of the Palestinians

is to attain a homeland in the Middle East. I cannot
disagree with that aim. However, to represent the
Israelis as child-beaters is a poor representation of
the facts. The Arab nations have initiated surprise

attacks on Israel on four occasions within the last 29
years (indeed, one was less than 24 hours after
Israel’s creation and one was on Judaism’s holiest
holiday). The Arab’s militant wing, the PLO, gloats
in pride over their “success” with terrorism (witness
Munich 1972, assorted hijackings, etc.). No one is
without guilt, but who has committed the more
heinous crimes?

I can condone their aims, but 1 condemn their
tactics. I see no reason to disallow their publishing of
advertisement to seek support. It is, however,
the better interst of the University to
promote the prejudice of a group, any group, with
the use of sensationalism.

It is hard to see the light at the end of this semester,
never mind the beginning of next semester. Nevertheless, a
well organized boycott against the fee on the spring tuition
bill by 350,000 students on 64 different campuses in the
SUNY system might force SUNY and legislative officials to
at least reconsider the "health fee" and hopefully to do
away with it all together (maybe to replace it with another
gimmick, but that remains to be seen).
The Student Association (SA) here can vigorously
support the proposed boycott by helping to organize the
forums planned by SASU delegates here, by distributing
information about the origins of the fee and why it must be
opposed, by making public statements and by pressuring
Ketter administration officials into doing the same.
This is not to take the pressure off the SASU delegates
who are currently mobilizing for a spring boycott. On the
contrary, only if SASU prods SA officials and student
newspaper editors across the state for commitment and
publicity will enough general student support be drummed
up for it to be successful.

The Story

of O

almost got confiscated by the

Buffalo Police Department Salacious Literature
Squad. Really. The movie is about this kinky letter
O who has alphabetical intercourse with three
different letters at once, like R, D and U. But when
M and W tried to get into the scene like the O
couldn’t dig it, so she like freaked out and they
ended up gang raping the O while the R was having
equipment problems and began looking like a P. It’s
really intense there for a while but the O mellows
out and soon all these characters are getting it on,
and nine months later a lower case o is born and she
like follows in the footsteps of her old lady and
everything.

So this Lieutenant Puritanski of the Smut Squad
hears about this Offensive flick and like gives UUAB
a hassle about the entire scene, but UUAB says, like
cool your Concords there, Lieutenant, our initials
are like getting off with this letter O.
And this Puritanski guy just happens to have O
as a middle initial so he can like see where UUAB is
coming from and everything’s definitely cool and the
flick gets flicked in Squire Hall. It was a real turn-on
for the cats there and everyone goes home and twists
their bodies into various letters. So this one
Goldberg dude, who was like heavily into the
Judaism scene, tries to twist himself into a Hebrew
letter and like gets stuck and they ended up calling
911 to get him out of it.
And it’s like Saturday, so a bunch of freaks
decided to get into the A mericanaviolencefootball
type scene so they checked out the game at Rotary
Field. Arid there was these rah-rah parents of the
Coast Guard Academy team there cheering their sons
onto the Victory trip. So these Capitalist Chain Saw
types were rootin’ really loud for their boys while
the Bolshevik freaks from UB were like altering their
consciousness and gettin’ into relating to the actual
leather of the football. So the freaks are rappin’
about what it would be like to be thrown and
punted around by these athletic supporter type
behemoths while these Imperialist Chevrolet type
dudes were digging the scoreboard, which was into
the Coast Guard 41, UB 14 trip. So the freaks were
like not relating to these Coast Guard rooters at all. I
mean they just couldn’t get inside their Apple-Pie
heads man. So they started getting on ’em about the

Military Industrial Regime, and the whole Ho Chi
Minh orbit. Well, the Buzz-Saw from the Academy
like brought back the Why-Don’t-You-Cut-Your-Hair
rap and the freaks really dug this one, 1 mean this
was like the sixties and the collective consciousness
route. So the Coast Guard J. Edgar Hoover types
definitely started with “I’ll alter your consciousness”
rap and were diggin’ the clenched fist scene, while
the
checking
freaks
were
out
the
“Whole-World’s-Watching” trip.

So like neither side knew that the whole world
was really like cruisin’ with the scoreboard scene,
which was now really getting into the Coast Guard
91, UB 19 trip, either that or getting it on with the
snack bar type orbit, which was clearly into the
barbeque potato chip trip.
So meanwhile the Campus Security dudes, who
were once really into the Joe Mannix consciousness,
but got too fat, so they had to start checkin’ out the
Night Watchman circuit, well anyways, these two
Quick Frozen Cops were like definitely eyeing the
Freaks vs. The Crew Cuts up in the stands. So they
decided they really ought to check out the
confrontation, ’cause these two were really into the
Proving-They-Have-A-Function-In-Life trip.
So, of course, they entered the walkie-talkie
orbit and began diggin’ the headquarters scene, and
the Broderick Crawford types at HQ were like really
into the Handle-Cold-Three rap cause they were also

involved in the Proving-I-Got-A-Function-In-Life
trip. Yeah, so these two Mattel-Toy-Type Policemen
the
definitely
decided
to
check
out
Wait-For-Reinforcemcnts circuit.
Meanwhile the Scoreboard was heavily into the
blown fuse trip ’cause the Coast Guard team was
seriously checking out the Over-A-Hundred scene,
while the UB players were considering the
Maybe-It-Doesn ’t-Lead-To-Harder-Drugs rap.
Anyways, these Ready to Heat Coppers were all
set to march en masse up to the bleachers to check
out the Dispersing-a-Riot trip. So hundreds f these
Plastic-Coated policemen types started climbing the
stands. But the bleachers were definitely not into
supporting all this weight, so they decided to check
out the collapsing scene, which they definitely did.
And, as it turned out, the Freaks, the Cops and
the Buzz Saw were all checking out the fractured
limb trip at once, while an innocent bystander type
really got intc,the 911 rap.

FEEDBACK

of CAC movie

To the Editor.

I am responding to the undue Feedback letter in
The Spectrum on November 4, 1977 entitled “CAC
Movie Refund." First, the reason for canceling the
10 p.m. showing of Don't Look Now was because
the sound was incoherent and many people were
leaving as a result of it. Second, anyone that came to
the CAC Office for a refund was given the option of
obtaining a free pass to another Friends of CAC
movie or receiving a monetary refund. If I was not
available, their names were taken, and I contacted
them as soon as possible.
In regards to the midnight showing of Andy
Warhol’s Frankenstein, people were told before hand

to call or check back at the Squire Hall Ticket Office
to see if the movie was to be shown.
The doors of Farber 150 were not locked and in
fact at least one set of doors cannot be locked. If the
doors to the building were locked, then I apologize,
however, at least 250 were capable of finding a

I would like to comment on the view of

Wednesday’s The Spectrum. All of the arguments in
favor of decriminalizing homosexual behavior and
banning discrimination against it focus on the rights
of the individual. Why can’t I do what I want in my

I have the right to select my own form of sexual
behavior? Where does society get off imposing its
sexual standards on me?
Completely absent from consideration is the
most important question of all: What is good for the
society as a whole? While freedom for homosexuals
certainly would be good for them, enabling gays to
live more freely and happily, it surely would make
life less free and happy for the heterosexual
majority. Freedom from homosexuals is what most

Americans want.
Every culture demands conformity in areas of
behavior and belief that are crucial to its survival and
perpetuation. For instance, can you imagine a
society in which half the population abhorred incest
as a monstrous crime, while the other half practiced
it ardently; or one in which half the people believed

believed in helping themselves to whatever they
needed? Such groups would tear themselves apart.
One critical area in which every culture limits
individual choice is sexual behavior and family
structure, for the sexual constitution is the very
center of social life. In our culture the accepted
norms are heterosexuality, monogamy and the
nuclear family. Does anyone doubt that gay
liberation directs a dagger at these institutions,
which are the heart of Western society? The chaos

He said, “It is a reality through

the individual and the community,
the University has the option to
grant disability leave or allow early

Kunz further explained, “We

and the Faculty Senate was doing
this.” He felt, however, that DUE

Intramural football
heads to playoffs
by Marshall Rosenthal
Special Features Editor
The Intramural Football Program enjoyed another successful
season this year, culminating with the playoffs which begin today.
Fierce competition is expected on the part of the 18 surviving teams
that remain out of the original 64 entrants, who will be vying for the
coveted Intramural Championship Trophy.
After the long grueling season, nine teams remained undefeated,
earning them the right to immediately qualify for the playoffs. Those
notables include: The Bionic Men, Holy Cow, The Goods, Helter
Skelter, Pigs on the Wing, Bugouts, Y
Franny’s Beaver
Patsol. Division runners-up qualifyers arc The Bad News Bulls, Chem
Stars, GMA’s, Panama Redskins, and the Coneheads.
This past weekend, six teams tasted a bit of the playoff fever when
they competed int a do-or-die situation where the winners advanced to
today’s opening round of the playoffs. The losers will watch from a
distance. The six participants included Egan’s Eagles, Super Bowl,
Smegma, Fighting 6th, Harold and the Molars, and Tolchok.

'Thanks a lot, Mike

All 18 contending squads appear U) be tough, but many observers
conclude that there will be a dog-fight between five of the undefeated,
untied division winners, all of whom sport phenomenal points scored
and points allowed totals. Led by quarterback Doug Schram, The
Bionic Men (6-0) head the list of possible winners. Last year’s
Intramural Champs, -the Bionics returned for another season virtually
unchanged. The acquisation of Mike Dixon could be the most
important move the team has made if they intend to claim their second
straight championship. Other vital Bionics include Mike Groh, Mike
Betz, and Gary Schwartzenholzer The Bionic Men have scored a total
,of 212 points, while giving up 12 this season.
Another contending threat is Pigs on the Wing (6-0). The nucleus
of this fine intramural squad is comprised of three members of last
year’s runners-up, The Clits. Leading the Pigs will be their
multi-talented quarterback, Bob Johansen, who possesses an
outstanding arm, and whose broken field running is considered to be
the finest in the entire intramural league. His favorite target is fleety
receiver Jim Dale. Defensively, the Pigs are led by Pual Gould and Joe
Mackajanian and, thus far, they’ve scored 156 points and yielded 9.
Y, why not?

Relying strongly on a superb defense, Y Greundel (6-0) figures to
be one of those qualified teams to dethrown the Bionic Men. The big Y
possess an awesome looking defensive line sparked by John Darling,
Brian Walsh, and Rob Widiker.Offensively, quarterback Kevin Cooney
commands the strongest arm in the league. Receivers Kevin Lynch and
Phil VeCicca helped account for the Vs total offense of 123 points,
while the defense yielded 24.
A virtually unknown entity is Governors League Champions,
Franny’s Beaver Patrol (6-0). The Patrol has amassed 191 points during
the season, while giving up just one touchdown to date. Led by their
gifted running and passing quarterback, Mike Abatemarco, the Patrol
certainly will be in the thick of things. Receivers Amic Drucker and
Vic Nole could be big factors, but the defense of Steve Hackling, Alan
Rabinowitz, and Steve (Stud) Saltzman could be the real key to their
possible success.
Holy Cow
The last of the possible strong contenders is Phil Rizzuto’s Law
School team. Holy Cow (60-1). The Cows are generally considered to
be the darkhorse team (no pun intended), mainly because their starting
quarterback Bob Kamm was forced out of action recently with an
injury. But in his place, Bob Flemming has done a remarkably good
job. Flemming is a former collegiate gridiron standout who competed
for Cornell University. He will be relying quite heavily on his receivers,
Gary Peters and Richie Epstein and Mike Tallon, for support, while the
line play of John Arpey and Ron Hager can only help. The Cows have
struck for 122 points and have yielded 18.
Today’s opening round of the playoffs will be held at the Ellicott
Fields at 3:00 and 4:00 p.m. Tomorrow the scene will shift to Main
Street where the quarter-finals will be held. Tentatively, the semi-finals
and championship games are slated to b held on Rotary Field. All are
welcome to attend the contests involving the Pitgs, Cows, Beavers,
Men, and the Y’s, as well as the other competing teams.

Bulls beaten by Coast Guard;
firstfootball seasonends
by Marshall Rosenthal
Special Featuret Editor

The Coast Guard Academy Cadets, ignited by
four second half touchdowns, convincingly trounced
the
Bulls 41-14 in the season finale giving
Buffalo an overall record of 0-3-1 for 1977.
Small both in size and numbers, but not in
spirit, the Coast Guard squad effectively marched in,
around and through the Buffalo defense so often
during the final two periods, that only their own
mistakes prevented them from scoring further.
If the game had ended at halftime, the Bulls
might have qualified for the Buffalo upset of the
Year Award, but it didn’t. During the initial half, the
Bulls played their best football this year, with a crisp
offense and a staunch defense.
Late in the first quarter, the Bulls took control
of the ball at the Coast Guard 42 yard line.
Quarterback Paul DiMiero unloaded a beautifully
thrown pass which split end Tony Formato turned
into a leaping 28 yard gain. Halfback Mark Gabriel
maneuvered his way to the nine yard line and then
DiMiero was halted at the two yard line as the
quarter ended.

Seasaw battle
Confronted with a fourth and two situation,
DiMiero rolled to his left and found Formato in the
end zone for the score. Down by seven points, the
Cadets wasted no time in scoring. After recovering a
Buffalo fumble at the Bulls’ 30 yard line, the
Seamen tied the score five plays later with the help
of a Buffalo facemasking penalty. Scoring the Cadet
TD was co-captain Mickey Butler who, prior to the
game, was the nation’s fifth leading collegiate scorer.
The Seamen went ahead 14-7 after picking off a
DiMiero pass. Quarterback Mark Feldman hit
receiver Ed Richards for the go-ahead tally, as
Feldman eluded a UB tackier on the scramble. The
Feldman-Richards combination continually stung
the Bulls, as Richards accounted for three

touchdowns with five receptions for 140 yards on
the afternoon.
With two minutes remaining in the half, the
young, inexperienced Bulls did the impossible. With
the aid of Coast Guard penalties, they marched 76
yards in two minutes to tie the score at 14 apiece.
Unable to advance the ball on the first two
plays, the Bulls breathed new life after pass
interference call bailed them out. Passes to Gabriel
and Formato brought the crowd of 3,200 partisan
UB fans to their feet, roaring for the Bulls to march
onward. But the Buffalo drive stalled at their own 48
yard line, and with a fourth down situation and 28
seconds remaining in the half, the Bulls lined up in
punt formation.

Go Gabe, Go
Instead of punting, Gabryel pulled off one of
the prettiest and most remarkable runs witnessed at
Rotary Field this season. Standing three yards to the
side, behind center Jim Reger, the short snap went
to Gabryel who stayed low without moving for three
seconds. With the Cadet defenders rushing behind
and to the side of him, Gabryel tucked the ball
under his arm and sprinted to the Coast Guard 33
yard line for a 19 yard gain. DiMicro then threw to
Tony Grisanti who was interfered with inside the
five yard line. With one second remaining, DiMiero
bootlegged it in for the tying halftime score of

14-14.

The second half was, of course, another story.
On the second play of the half, Feldman threw a
quick slant in pass to Richards, who beat the Buffalo
secondary in a foot race to the endzone. While the
UB offense remained dormant, the Cadet attack
surged forward with Butler, Richards, and halfback
Alex Simonka each scoring touchdowns to secure
the victory.

The Cadets could have run up the score even
more if it hadn’t been for their own turnovers. They
were intercepted once while on the Buffalo seven
yard line and fumbled the ball three times at the
Buffalo nine, eleven and twelve yard lines.

&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;

years of cheap discs

The Record Coop will sell all albums at cost on Monday,
November 7, to mark the two year anniversary of Hie closing of the
Coop by University officials, according to Coop spokesperson Richard
Floersch. The Co&lt;ip was temporarily closed by Vice President for
Finance and Management Edward Doty on November 7, 1975 because
of a lawsuit brought forth by Carl Cavage, owner of Cavage’s Record
Store, which contended the Coop was competing unfairly with the
j.
Cavage Store in the University Plaza.
One month later, University President Robert Ketter overruled
Doty’s decision and allowed the Coop to re-open under new guidelines:
the Coop was limited to a gross sale of $10,000 per month; it had to
issue monthly income statements to Ketter and the Director of Norton
(now Squire) Hall, James Gruber.
In an effort to “keep the public aware,” said Floersch, all “F”
albums will be sold at the cost price of $3.55. Tables will also be set up
in Squire Hall which will distribute information regarding the current
status of the Coop/Cavage lawsuit.
The Coop is also planning to redecorate. It has received paint from
the Maintenance Department and it is planning to enlist the support of
Art majors in painting the Coop’s walls.
Floersch said, “It’s a bad situation and a lot of people don’t know
about it. 1 hope this sale will help keep people aware of the Coop’s
situation.”

York.
The suit, filed by the Courier in Federal Disctrict Court one week
ago, alleges that the News is violating federal anti-trust laws and the
State Penal Code in an attempt to “eliminate the Courier-Express as a
competitor” in the Buffalo area newspaper market.
The Courier's contention’s center around the pricing and
marketing plans for the News Sunday edition, which is slated to
premier on November 13. Since the Courier draws most of its revenue
from its Sunday morning edition, the News may siphon off enough
advertising income and subscribers to force the financially unstable
Courier out of business.
Buffalo would then become a “one newspaper city,” the suit
alleges.

The Courier is specifically seeking to end what it feels are unfair
buisness practices by the News, including: distributing any edition of
the News at no charge, setting advertising rates at an unreasonably low
level, encouraging “either implicitly or explicitly” paperboys, district
managers or distributors of the Courier from quitting the Courier in
favor of the News, publishing “disparaging” remarks about the Courier,
sponsoring any contest in violation of the New York State law
(specifically the “Scoreball” contest), and taking, any action to
“eliminate the Courier-Express" as a competitor.

fticing arguements
Federal District Judge John T. Curtin last Monday referred initial
hearings in the case to Federal Judge Charles L. Brieant of New York
City, who flew in to begin jury selection in another case.
In an appearance before Judge Curtin Monday, News attorney
Manly Fleischmahn 'ottttined his defense to the Courier's allegations.
One of the backbones of the News defense will be the arguement that
the . News is simply attempting to end what has been a Courier
monopoly of the Sunday morning market. Fleischmann, in his._
statement to Judge Curtin, called the absence of a News Sunday paper
a “hsitorical anachronism” which limits the News' ability “to serve its
readers.”
“News happens seven days a week, and the defendant wants to
report the news to its readers seven days a week,” the statement reads.
The “irony” of the Courier's charging an attempt to monopolize while
itself owning a monopoly for decades “would appear obvious to even
the most casual observer,” the statement said.
Profit expected
Much of the Courier’s case rests on the News’ pricing of its Sunday
edition at $.30 while the Courier sells at $.50, and the News’ recent
announcement that the present $1.05 a week charge for the
Monday—Saturday News would remain unchanged for a five week
“introductory” period, despite the addition of an extra paper on
Sunday.

“We

don’t want to

prohibit

them from having a Sunday

newspaper,” said Courier attorney Frederick P. Furth, ‘They’re free to
have a Sunday paper if they want, but they are not free to have a
newspaper that they’re giving away; they’re not free to have a'
newspaper that would be sold below cost.”
The News countered by claiming in the statement to Curtin that

the $.30 price was set with full intention to turn a profit at that price.
The fact that the Courier charges $.50 is testament to its monopolistic
position on Sundays, the News charged.

The late T960’s and early
1970’s were a time of trouble for
this University. But' the seventies,
far from being their antithesis, are
in some respects a continuation.
During the campus unrest of
1970, local newspapers were filled
with tales of terror; fire bombings,
sit-ins,- confrontations and riots
were splashed across their front
pages. Many angered citizens from
the community cried out in
unison: “Shut the University
down.” Today some hostility

remains, but the University on the
whole has changed dramatically.
SUNY at Buffalo embarked
upon the seventies with a shortage
of money caused by a shortage of
public confidence. During the
political
turmoil of 1970, a
legislative assistant to Governor

Rockefeller said, “The governor is

�A million books move

Libraries are branching out
by Paul Bollmeyer
Spectrum Staff Writer

Various departments of the University’s
Libraries will be Involved in massive relocation and
consolidation during the next two semesters. With
the moving of Lockwood Library to Baldy Hall and
the opening of the Capen Hall Library, Director of
University Libraries Saktidas Roy anticipates more
efficient services and facilities when the move is
completed.

The Lockwood Library, on the North Campus,
will house a collection of one million volumes from
the old Lockwood building, along with many from
the Art Library in the Ellicott Complex. The Capen
Hall Library, also on the North Campus, will consist
of four floors. The ground and first floors will house
the books previously kept at the Undergraduate
Library (UGL), while the second and third floors
will contain the Science and Engineering collection.
The fourth floor will be the new location of the
Director’s office, rare books, the University Archives
and a poetry section.
New services available
Roy was anxious to bring forward the many
new services available at the new branches. “Most
importantly, the consolidation of books once
scattered over three campuses will lead to greater
efficiency in obtaining the books students need,”
said Roy. Consistent throughout the new libraries
will be the following improvements: there will be
more hours, approximately 104 hours weekly of
supervised library service with 24 hour a day service
in some unsupervised areas; microfilm will be readily
available in both buildings; space will be expanded

four times in terms ot the Lockwood Library’s
seating capacity; computer service will be more
widespread leading to increased efficiency and ease
in controlling data linked with the over two million
books and periodicals; interlibrary services and loans
will be extended to students as part of this new
program.

Because the Ellicott Complex will be deprived
of both the Hall and Art Libraries, there is a plan to
have trucks run books over to that campus. These
books would be requested by students and supplied
by bookmobiles.

Library move dates
The following dates have been set for Library
moves. From November 7—11, the Director’s office
will be moved to the fourth floor of Capen. For two
v'eeks starting on the first of December, the
University Archives will be moving to the same floor
of that building. From December 27—January 16,
the Undergraduate Library will move to the first
floors of Capen. The Bell Storage materials, now in
the Capen Hall basement will be moved to the new
Lockwood as soon as the Undergraduate Library
(UGL) move is facilitated. On April 17, the Poetry
collection will join the Director’s office and Archives
in the fourth floor of Capen.
On May 19, the Hall Library will move to it’s
new Lockwood location followed by a major move
on the 22nd of that month. This large undertaking
consists of transferring the one million books in the
old Lockwood to their new branch. Summer
students will be deprived of this collection until July
19. Between August 15-September 15, all Science
and Engineering books will be permanently lodged at
Capen, completing the transition in time for the Fall
semester of 1978.

severely curtail use of the facility

Student reaction to the move

“1 can’t believe it,” responded
Paula Armesto, a senior who has
grown accustomed to dropping

“The location of the library is so

“The move is unfair to people

then. two libraries would be

Second, the moves would take

NYPIRG wins big
in state bond issue
by Daniel I. Isaacs
Spectrum

Stuff Writer

The New York State Court of Appeals remained undecided
Tuesday as to the constitutionality of Governor Hugh Carey’s bond
proposal to spend $750 million for statewide comprehensive economic
development in transportation, tourism, environmental conservation
and industrial development.
The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) has
charged that the proposal violates a state constitutional requirement
stating that all state bond issuances must be approved by the New York
State voters and be for “some single work or purpose.” The enormity
of the expenditure also influenced NYPIRG to take its action.
Thus far, the courts have agreed with NYPIRG. In a four-to-one
decision handed down on October 27, Associate Justice J.L. Larkin
wrote that the State’s assertion that “comprehensive economic
development” was a single purpose would “render the phrase
meaningless” and allow the state legislature to group many diverse and
unrelated issues under one issue “and gain support of proponents from
each cause.” The State immediately appealed this decision and the
Court of Appeals scheduled the current special session.
On the ballot
Tuesday, the justices brought up many new issues. The Court of
Appeals, consisting of seven judges, headed by Chief Justice Breitel,
held differing opinions about whether or not the case could be
considered. One justice felt the case may have been brought up too
late. Even if the Court upholds the lower court decisions. State
representatives claimed there is no way they can physically remove the
issue from the voting ballots by election time. This means that either
the votes on the issue will not be counted or not considered.
Another agreed with the dissenting opinion of the Appelate
Division’s ruling which, Associate Justice A.F. Mahoney claimed, called
for waiting until after the vote before deciding upon the
constitutionality of the issuance. After the decision was rendered.
Associate Judge Mahoney said, “Judicial action at this point is not only
prudent but warranted,” because of the magnitude of the issue and
great public interest it has created. NYPIRG attorney Dennis A.
Kaufman commented that it was “difficult to see if the court will judge

on the merits of the case.”

Bi-partisan support
Whether or not the proposal is constitutional, the possible benefits
from the sale of $750 million in bonds are still in question. Executive
Director of NYPIRG Donald Ross called the legal action “an attempt
to prevent a huge debt that would burden future generations” and felt
the bond is “little more than a way to amass a huge war chest for pork
barrel politics in the 1978 gubernatorial election year.” He claimed,
however, that NYPIRG was not opposed to the issuance of bonds for
local projects.
Republican Senator Jacob K. Javits claimed he endorsed the bond
issue even though he felt it may have been put forth to further Carey’s

York State its first problem,” said Javits, “and 1 don’t see any other

Renovations in Kimball Tower, which will
eventually house the School of Health Related
Professions, are currently underway and “should be
completed by the end of the calendar year."
Assistant Vice President of Facilities Planning. John
Neal, said.
Approximately one quarter of a million dollars
has been appropriated by the state for the
renovations, which affect the fifth, sixth and seventh
floors of Kimball Tower, Neal elaborated. Plans for
the Main Street Campus include the accommodation
of all the Health Sciences Schools, in addition to the
conversion of Foster Hall into a “Wet Lab” Facility.
A “Wet Lab” is a laboratory with gas and water
fixtures. The design for this project has not yet been
started although funds have been appropriated. Neal
explained that projects take approximately two
years to design, two years for construction and one
year to “work out the bugs.” Another project slated
to being soon is the evacuation of the rented Bell
Plant facility, whose workers will be temporarily
housed in Cary Hall.

buildings on the Main Street campus are pending
until new buildings are constructed at Amherst.
“You can't go into a building and start tearing it up
until you've moved the people in them out,’’ Neal
said.
Three buildings, the reactor building, Clark Hall
and Parker Hall, will remain the same on the Main
Street Campus.
Future projects indude moving the Health
Sciences Library from Kimball Tower into Abbott
Library. Neal said. This will necessitate building an
extension onto Abbott since it is not big enough to
hold the Health Sciences Library at the present time,
explained Neal. Money is expected to be
appropriated for this project in the near future
according to Neal. Other renovations include the
movement of the Science Departments into the
Cary-Farber-Sherman complex and the dental clinics
into Squire Hall, Neal elaborated.
Student organizations currently in Squire Hall
have not yet been allocated offices at Amherst. They
have been guaranteed space in Squire for two years,
and after that, their status is uncertain.

President Carter signed legislation increasing the
minimum wage 45 percent by 1981. Hi called it “a
step in the right direction” and said it would pump
an additional $9 billion into the economy. Under the
legislation, the minimum wage will rise from the
current $2.30 an hour to $2.65 on January 1, 1978.
It will go to $2.90 on January 1, 1979, and to $3.10
on January 1, 1980, before reaching its final step of
$3.35 on January 1, 1981, a total increase of $1.05.

According to a New York Times CBS News poll,
the American people appear to be losing confidence
in President Carter’s ability to restore trust in
government. His promise to restore that trust was
the keystone of his successful Presidential campaign,
but one out of every six Americans who believed this
in the early summer, no longer thinks he can. Mr.
Carter’s overall approval rating slipped from 66
percent in January to 62 percent in July and to 55
percent in October. However, that decline is
comparable to that experienced by other recent
Presidents after nine months in office.

The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) is
offering a wide selection of Spring Internship programs for
students at this University. The internships are designed to
“provide an educational experience for students who want to take
a semester off from formal classroom work or who wish to spend
part time working with NYPIRG while attending class.”
NYPIRG is one of the nation’s largest advocacy organizations
and is' located in various schools from Brooklyn to Buffalo.
According to the flyer, “NYPIRG trains students in citizenship
through a broad range of consumer, environmental, and
government reform issues.”
The internship programs range from full-time jobs in Albany
and New York City to part-time jobs in Buffalo. Available in
Albany are ten legislative internships, five legislative researcher
jobs, and fourteen positions with New York State Agencies.
Jobs in Buffalo include those in local government o(Tices and
experience as Outreach interns. Outreach interns are people “who
reach out into the community to build a coalition supporting
NYPIRG program bills,” according to the information distributed
by NYPIRG.
Other positions available include four positions as Mobile
Teach-In interns, people who travel in a converted school bus
throughout New York State conductg public education campaigns
and New York City based programs as interns to small claims
court. City agencies, and NYPIRC offices.
“Credits will be gjven for the program, but will depend on the
instructor,” said Ron Wainrib, the Legal Coordinator of NYPIRG
at this University. Wainrib claimed. “The programs are valuable
because they give you a chance to work elbow to elbow with
government officials.”
Students wishing to apply for internships should pick up an
application in the NYPIRC Office (Room 311 Squire Hall). The
deadline for applications is Friday. November 11.

�EDITORIAL

Editor's comment

For Mayor
The Spectrum, by nature of its being, so to speak, is not
supposed to endorse Arthur Eve for Mayor of Buffalo. The
Spectrum is not supposed to endorse anyone for anything,
almost, but this year, the election facing the people of this
dty on Tuesday is the most Important one in Buffalo's
racerit history, and therefore. It would be a journalistic
blunder to not pass judgement on it and by doing so, not try
to affect its outcome.
The problem at this desk is how to convey to students at
this University the vital importance of this election to the
very survival of Buffalo. There is presently a good chance to
overhaul the aging, worn and bitterly resolute political
machine that has long controlled City Hall from the first
floor to the 100th. Regardless of who gets elected Mayor,
many people in and about foe city government are about to
lose their jobs. And they know it.
When Arthur Eve won the Democratic primary race, Les
Foachio decided not to run as an independent. And so,
Joseph Crangle announced in the Courier-Express and in the
Buffalo Evening News that he would throw his support to
Eve In his bid over John Phelan, James Griffin and Richard
Turchiarelli. Who knows what that means? If he is
supporting Eve, he certainly hasn't been very vociferous
about it, probably to Eve's benefit. Joseph Crangle is
supposed to be "the machine."
Exactly how much the Mayor of Buffalo can do for this
University as a functioning whole is difficult to say.
University officials generally correspond more with people in
Albany than they do with officials In City Hall, Funding
money comes from Albany, SUN Y-CentraI decisions are
made in Albany and politically appointed jobs also come
from Albany.
But a Mayor can do much for individual groups with
different vested interests within the University community.
Eve has talked about involving University professors in
making decisions about the rapid transit system, for which
contractors are currently taking soil samples on the front
lawn next to Main Street.
He hat talked of restructuring the Community Block
Grant Program. Last Saturday, he met with a group of
people in the Greenfield Street restaurant where he
expressed interest in supporting more Block Grants to the
Buffalo Co-op Council, in which many students are involved.
Eve has insured the success of more minority students at
this University by getting increased funding for EOF, BUILD
and other aff irmative action related programs.
How about this. Eve emphatically supported the
decriminalization of marijuana when he spoke in Haas
Lounge in a mayoral forum sponsored by NYPIRG .on
September 19. Griffin and Phelan did not.
Yes, it is a complex job Eve has undertaken; yes, the
student vote could be a decisive factor in the election, as
could any other block of votes so large in a city that is not
so large.

To the Editor.

I would like to answer the chaises of Ronney
which appeared in Wednesday’s Guest

rt»ih

Opinion.

.

Pint, Mr. Chich charges one with writing an
impossible headline. “It is amazing that Shapiro, as a
*taff writer of The Spectrum could use that title for
his article ...” he wrote. If Mr. Chich had known
anything about journalism, he would know that The
Spectrum staff writers do not write headlines. In
fact, they are not even consulted.
Second, Mr. Chlh is wrong in assuming that two
people, namely, Tan and Yuen, are the basis of the
charge. This is not true. Since Tan and Yuen are
politically motivated in their reasons for making the
charge, I required further proof before printing. It
was only after denying all the previous “well

—

developed” arguments. Within a span the charges (In
fact, some informants, who will remain nameless
despite KMT attempts to have me name them, were
KMT supporters and members.)
Further, is Mr. Chih to deny investigations by
MIT and NAFSA which showed that a nationwide
KMT surveillance network exists.
Finally, Mr. Chib charges that it was
“ridiculous” that I should believe that surveillance
existed “here in this free country.” May I point out
that in recent years, information has been uncovered
which shows that the RBI and CIA surveilled
American citizens. Even in a country as free as the
U.S. (which, incidentally, might be the freest in the
world), surveillance has gone on. Therefore, it is not
ridiculous to assume that the Taiwan government,
which is not as free as America, surveills its citizens.
Harvey Shapiro

KMT false charges
To the Editor.
/ Referring to the article, “KMT Spying” on the
front page of the October 28, 1977 issue of The
Spectrum. Harvey Shapiro, the writer of the article,
did not actually understand what I said when he
interviewed me on the phone. I would like to point
out a few points pn which the writer was misled by a
handful of self-interested individuals.
1. I hereby strongly protest that what Yuen
and Tan said is completely untrue. The article was
not very precise in quoting me. Of course, I do not
agree with Yuen and Tan’s philosophy. My point a
that it is all right for every one to share different
opinions, political or otherwise, but that does not
give them the right to accuse me of “KMT Spying.”
There is no “surveillance” in this
2.
University. Peter Yuen and Mong-heng Tan just
made it up. They work in the way like the
Communists do. They lie and lie until they make the
Americans believe.
3.
The paragraph, “Several sources have
pointed the finger at Dick Ych,” is very ambigious.
It is full of vague, baseless implications. I urge the
writer to specify thoee sources and hope to dear up
all the unnecessary misunderstanding.
With regards to the paragraph which
4.
describes how an agent/student writes down names
and then has them “sent to the ROC consulate in
New Yotk City.” I do not know how Yuen could
make up such a fancy story. It h apparent that he
feels very guilty in his conscious. He went wild for a
while and dreamed of different kinds of fairy tales.
Probably he always adopts this way to send his

5. 1 strongly accuse that the behavior of Yuen
and Tan is completely illegal, and unfair to the
interests of the students who come from Taiwan.
The following is what I feel toward this article
1. What are Yuen and Tan trying to do to me?
They want to scare me away, to make me transfer to
another university? No way!
2. These two “special” students invent some
sort of logic. Whenever some student tries to do
something for Taiway, they get so nervous they start
calling them “KMT.” If this logic is applicable to its
furthest extremity, they give me no choice other
than to call them “Communists.” I must make a
personal remark here that I am not in the habit of
making charges against anybody. 1 just believe in
equal opportunity. They started first. We are entitled
to do the same.
3. I wonder how they can have the time to
criticize others. Is it that that is what they have
come here for? Can it be possible that they are sent
by somebody? I doubt it. 1 could not care less.
4. This article did a lot of damage to me,
mostly mentally. I am sure The Spectrum owes me
an apology. The writer owes me an apology because
I prohibited him from using my name, but he
printed it anyway. As for Yuen and Tan, they should
be sent to the student court and sentenced to
confinements to their quarters for at least the next
ten years. The reason is they bite whenever they
meet the opponent.
S.
All kidding aside, given the very real
damage done to me by this baseless article, I am
afraid that a recurrence of this sort of slander will
force me to take legal action.

KMT story facts

to less than 400 words and, if it is necessary to
hand print them, make them distinctly legible. If
all letters of all lengths were printed, The
Spectrum editors and staff would be forced to
Kmit the number of news and feature stories and
just think, what a loss that would be.
In addition, those students who wish their
names to be printed with letters will always be
given precedence over those who request that
their names be withheld. As always, unsigned
letters will never be printed.
Thank you very much.

rial policy to determined by the Editor-kvChief.

Many students have written to The Spectrum to
complain about the conduct of the University Police,
saying that the officers harass students and gays,
issue tickets for parking violations, etc. I would like
to break from this tradition and laud two of these
fine people. On the night of Oct 24, as I was
proceeding home bom the UGL, I espied a man
sitting in a car, a seemingly innocuous situation. I,
however, tend to notice such things, especially since
1 have been annoyed by an exhibitionist already this
semester. (I am not paranoid; everyone really is out
to get me.) Anyway, having passed by the said man,
I heard him leave his car, but was not too concerned,
as I was walking along a road on which several other
people were traveling. Some moments later, a man (I
was not certain until later that it was the same one)
drove up beside me and inquired whether I would
like a ride. I responded in the negative, and he left,
followed by a University Police car. Many would
suppose that this person was merely acting out of
kindness or some other rot, but as a female who has
been offered “aid” by innumerable such good
Samaritans, I can say that these strangers who accost
me can at best do me no good and at worst do a
good deal of harm. Moreover, having been refused,

they often do not disappear “into the heart of an
impenetrable darkness;” rather they turn back and
drive past again and again, a thing which leaves me
moat uneasy, as the path to my home is deserted in

places.
As 1 continued on my way, the University Police
vehicle stopped near me, and the officers asked if 1
was acquainted with the mysterious man. They
explained that another woman had complained
about someone following her, and they offered me a
ride home “just in case,” which I accepted. I feel this
is an excellent example of how the University Police
serve the students, and I hope that anyone who
doubts that they do would consider what would
happen to many people on campus, especially to
females, if these officers did not protect us. This
incident may prove not only that they have “better
things to do” than issue summonses, but also that
they attend to those better things. I would like to
add that at no time did the officers request any
proof of my status as a student, nor did they
admonish me on the dangers of walking alone at
night, realizing, no doubt, that students must often
live at the library. Finally, I would like to publicly
thank these two, whose names I know not, for their
concern and assistance.

'Myths: The Tapestry'

Some loose threads

The great fascination of myths
is that they bring us close as

From the Homeric ballads to
Tolkein's SUmari/lion, art is full of
persuasive illusions of the face of
the world beyond our own, even
if that illusion is only really the
dazzle of genius. Man cannot
conceive of gods in other than
human terms reassuringly and
art cannot measure them by any
rule other than those it measures
this world with.
But these myths are also great
stories. By their nature they must
deal with the classic absolutes
life and death, love and hatred,
justice and vengeance. And so

Ronstadt playing it

status for singing homecoming weekend at Cornell University is loaded
with entendre.

Imagine coming all the way out to Ithaca to sing "Love Me
Tender" in Barton Hall, the glorifed airplane hangar that serves as
Cornell’s basketball statium. It's almost as good as torching in the
spotlight of Dodger Stadium; almost as apple pie. But it ain't apple pie

'cause it ain't real, folks. Her voice is real, sure. No doubt that
Ronstadt belts 'em out to break yore pore lit hahrt. But nothing can
free here from that ball and chain, the ball being her rock and the chain
being the one towards the trend.
Time was when Linda Ronstadt would play five sets at the
Troubadour, singing Hank Williams' "I Fall To Pieces” and Buddy
Holly's "That'll Be the Day" free enough to know that she wasn't just
polishing up her overall record star spangles. But on the stage at
Cornell, the show was clearly calculated in every way from the ballads
to the specified points of abandon. Aside from "Desperado" (which
she should leave to the Eagles, anyway) and "Silver Threads and
Golden Needles" (which was the evening's unexpected pleasure),
everything came from the last four albums. And following "Heart Like
a Wheel," there is almost a prescription for material on every other
album. And as for the Ronstadt freaks, who go as young as eleven (you
should a seen the kid trying to buy a ticket offa me in the street!), the
concert was just what the doc ordered: a heavy, heavy dose of the
latest album with concentration on the efforts that are the most similar
tolt.
Ballad, rocker, ballad
On the positive side of her slate, Ronstadt sang for almost two
hours, maybe more, which was better than expected. It was more than
when I saw her three years ago, so that seems like an optimizing point.
As an opener, Karla Bonoff's song, "Lose Again," sets the mood for
both the audience and the performer. Save her from her heart this
time, but she'll inevitably love us and lose again. From this she jumps
into "That'll Be The Day." It's a great rocker, something Ronstadt is
good at and should do an album's worth of. Then "Willin'", Lowell
George's truckdriving tune. It's a ballad. Then another rocker. Then a
Ballad. Rocker. Ballad. Get the idea? The only time she broke from
this was to sing four ballads, inlcuding "Love Me Tender" and the
dolorous (what else) "Sorrow Lives Here" by Eric Kaz. And here she
almost lost the audience.
Well, what's a rock 'n roll mama to do? It would be terrific for
Ronstadt to wander through the two hours, pulling a Patsy Kline here,
a Louvin Brothers there, torchin' 'em like she knows how to do; play
"Different Drum," sing like there wasn’t a plan what to do. That would
be a vocal showcase, the thing that Ronstadt is supposed to be doing
better than any female singer. Be electrifying, which she really only

was on "You're No Good."
Or, maybe in a girl group. Linda, Bonnie Raitt, Wendy Waldman,
Tonj Brown. It would be inspiring to have Ronstadt as a pioneer, not a
pie-face. I'll wait for the next pennant.

�Crusaders'strength lies in each members talent
by Bobby
Spectrum

Johansen

Music Staff

The Crusaders first came to my attention about four
years ago whilst on my Second Crusade. These guys can
cook and the sound they generate is the Crusaders. Call it

jazz, jazz-rock, funk, or what you will. The fact is that
over the years the Crusaders have developed a cohesive
instrumental sound that goes anywhere. From the LeParis
Club to the Tralf and even to the Mush room (If you go
there . . please), their sound can be heard, and why not?
.

Individually, their talents are enormous, and you can
find any number of them on herds of albums ranging from
Steely Dan to Jdhn Klemmer. This for me was where the
strength of the Crusaders lie, in the individual energy and
talent that makes up the group. O.K., they were really
tight, but didn't those solos generate energy!

Each Crusader received great reception for their solo
efforts. "Stlx" Hooper changed the mood of the concert
with an excellent fifteen minute solo on his tuned drums.
As he started, the shifting beat brought visions of Krakatoa
East of Java to the top, and he made the place shake. I
turned to a fiend-ah, friend whose eyes were closed, and
asked if he was crashing. He said he only had to feel the
music. Many numbers passed as "Stix" switched to the
—

cymbals and earned a standing ovation. Robert "Pops"
Popwell, bassist for the Crusaders, played one of the most
impressive bass solos that I’ve ever seen or heard, bar none
(sorry. Jack). Not only is Popwell as big as a house and as
bright as a dayglo tennis ball, but quick too! He flailed at
the bass for ten minutes to the total delight of the
audience and they showed it too. As Wilton Feld r,
saxaphonist, so appropriately said, "He plays our brand of
music."

Plucking fine riffs
The band opened up with a few good mellow
numbers, with Joe Sample, keyboardman extraordinaire,
showing why many people call him the mainstay of the
Crusaders. The sound was tight and clean and really came
through on David "Fathead" Nemwan's cut, "Hard
Times." Sample started "Hard Times" with an excellent
solo on the organ. With Felder's sax wired through a
synthesizer and Billy Rogers plucking fine riffs, the
Crusaders made "Hard Times" one of the highlights of the
evening.
After the Stix solo session, the band went into "Chain
Reaction," the title cut from their album released in 1975.
This was the Crusaders at their collective best as they
played one of their most popular tunes. The Crusaders

(Wayne is in the studios now). Something must also be said
for Billy Roger's guitar. Honestly, I was a bit disappointed
that Larry Carlton wouldn't be playing lead. This quickly
changed as Rogers deomonstrated an ability to play his

own synthesis of jazz- rock guitar.
All in all, the Crusaders were excellent, the crowd was
receptive, the smoke tasty, and the seats left a little to be
desired. The opening act was Gary Bartz, who has a thing
for macaroni. The lead-off number was severely
unimpressive. This initially detracted from his set which
wasn't all that bad. Bartz played a decent sax but that was
about it. His back up band wasn't exactly precise, but they
tried hard; give 'em two points for effort. The female
vocalist could really rip off those Minnie highs. The
endurance was worth it. The Crusaders made it so.

BetsyRose and Cathy

UUAB Coffeehouse
Women making music . . the songs and voices of Betsy Rose and
Cathy Winter are spotlighted at the UUAB Coffeehouse, tonight and
tomorrow night at 8:30 p.m. in Squire Hall's First Floor Cafeteria.
Both based in the Boston/Cambndge area, Betsy and Cathy
represent two different faces of the emergence of what's been called
"woman song" — women forking within and without various musical
traditions and styles. It embraces as wide a range as any musical idea.
Rosalie Sorrels (here last week) exemplifies the idea as much as more
conscious and obvious activists like Holly Near (one of the field's most
militant exponents) and England's Fiankie Armstrong.
Betsy writes and sings her own music with skill that Rock

magazine has called “so perfect it seems easy,"

on piano and guitar. Two of her songs, "Glad to Be a Woman" and
"Neglect" have been released as a single by Philo Records.
accompanying

Blue Winter

Cathy came from the blues and ragtime tradition, and is an
unusually skilled guitarist (as any blues/ragtime player of any worth
must be) Her own songs stray at times out of the strict folk idiom, as
in the impressionistic, almost soft jazz moods of "Black Magic Dancer”
and "Bitterwood."

Besides a great deal of club work around Boston and elsewhere,
both Betsy and Cathy participated in the Boston Women’s Music
Weekend of 1975, which has become something of a legend in musical
and womanly circles.
Betsy Rose and Cathy Winter, tonight and tomorrow night at the
UUAB Coffeehouse in Squire Hall's 1st Floor Cafeteria, starting at
8;30 p.m. Tickets available at the Squire Ticket Office.

the transition from book to

This is not a question of
interpretation, for one expects
that the art pf one medium will,
when presented in another, be
expressed
differently.
The
problem with Goodbar is that it is
not expressed differently, it is just

�Nefertiti: of Dark &amp; Comely
by Michael F. Hopkins
Spectrum Music Staff

Once, up on a crusty

hill called Time

(or a timeless

pie, to square neatly), there is a wizard. Now, mind you.

to the Dread Green Gilded Man (who, thru buying and

suggested by Mojo K'bwa: "magic is to be purchased and
made available by binding deeds
Ah, well. As I said, in the beginning or pre-ever, ther is
a wizard. His name is Wayne Shorter. He is the I ska man,
for Iska is the Wind, and he lives to breathe the swifting,
open air into the lands. Perhaps, overlooking the
powerfully tranquil deep of the Pacific Ocean, Wayne drew
a picture upon a powerful sigh of beauty that his wife
Anna Maria gave freely. Prelude for a Native Dancer (an
album on Columbia). Or did he take a drop of the sea and
ixoduce, from the life within, a watercolor staircase?
Whatever the origin, Nefertiti, clearly, is an organic
monument. To be organic is to grow.

Change.

We shall sum up this movement of "Nefertiti" shortly,
but it would be appropriate, first, to speak on the present
whereabouts of the members of Circle. Corea after Circle,
did other productive things for ECM and Polydor
(including the first Return To Forever) which we will
eventually discuss. His present location is unknown. The
other three are often together; Braxton whom we discuss
often (really?) is on Arista Records, getting finer all the
time. Holland brought the oceanic Sam Rivers to flow with
Braxton's sorcerous lore and Altschul augmentative wit to
surge and emerge in the classic Conference Of The Birds
(ECM). A freedom in song to gather on the "Four Winds"
of the World, they gathered to smile that day, extending
new, familiar ways. In this evergreen vein Altschul,
recently, emerged with his premiere LP, You Can't Name
Your Own Tune (Muse). With the smoking piano of Muhal
Richard Abrams (AACM's founder), the tuba clarity and
French horn depth of trombonist George Lewis, and once
more, Sam and Dave, this Music dances yvith a hurricane
step, ranging from Busby Berkley Betty Booping Ain't She
Sweet on a star ("Natal Chart") to buoyant ballet.
Emerging magically like forest shadows, Altschul leads us
thru cosmic wonderlands of high witticism and potent
commentary.

As we have seen, "Nefertiti" has continuously grown:
the sweetness furthe; gaining the assured flamboyance of
the searcher, the poet. A finger writing on a never ending
curve of bioodboiling beauty.
Now, it is the burning bush of desire melting like the
heart -throb of cosmic giants' romantic play. African

members, trading crucifixes and statues of Mary for
whatever relics and artifacts they can lay their hands
on.

Black and White in Color, the recipient of last
year's Academy Award for Best Foreign Film, is set
in a French outpost in remote West Africa. Director
Jean-Jacques Annaud, in an impressive debut,
chronicles the daily existence of several characters in
this farcical film. The often used theme that war is a
senseless and futile endeavor is evoked in a subtle
and understated manner, as Annaud focuses on the
individuals whom he implies are to be held
accountable for their own misfortunes.
There are two neighboring settlements of
Germans and French which exist amiably, if for no
other reason than basic economic need. Both
colonies exploit and manipulate the Black natives.
Secluded from the outside world, both the French
and the Germans are unaware that World War I has
erupted, and that they are now supposed to be
enemies. The French learn of this situation first and
launch a surprise attack, which is conveniently
fought on both sides by the natives.

An unlikely hero
Annaud accentuates the folly in a humoristic
manner, ridiculing human action while maintaining
serious overtones. When the French begin their
ill-prepared attach on the Germans, the scene is
portrayed in a height of absurdity. Both the men and
the women are dressed in their best attire, enjoying a
picnic lunch of fruits and wine while the natives go
forth to fight their battle. The women consider the
war to be even more exciting than New Year's Eve.
Annaud captures the banality of these people as his
camera surveys the feast while, in the distance, one
hears the sounds of the battle. Lunch is interrupted
as the Germans, militarily surperior, repel the attack
and send the French fleeing.
The French seem to welcome the news of the
war as a means of relief from their boring and stifling
existence, but soon come to realize the dangers they
face. An unlikely hero appears as Hubert Fresnoy, a
young geographer, assumes command of the French
"army." Fresnoy, who previously opposed the
attack and had been criticized as merely being an
"intellect," proves to be a brillant and ruthless
stratigan. He becomes quietly infatuated with his
power and soon appears as a dictator.
Noble pretensions
Under close scrutiny, none of the characters of
Black and White in Color sustain any sense of moral
integrity. The French priests barter with tribe
•

•

•

They seek to show the natives the strength of
the White man's god by miraculously riding a
bicycle. Annaud also depicts the natives as having
their share of prejudices. They believe that the
Whites attract flies, and they sing songs calling
attention to their master's smelly feet as the
unsuspecting enjoy the sweetness of their voices.
Even the noble pretensions of Hubert Fresnoy do
not stand up to close inspection. He admits in a
letter that he is impressed by the natives and feels
they can almost be called men. Vet, in the same
scene, he carefully wipes cleqn a glass his Black
servant hands him.

The war is seen by almost everyone as an
occasion from which to profit. Feigned pride and
honor serve as masks for such self-concerns as
prestige and wealth. The merchants, who initially
aCkocated the war, soon do an about face when they
have to provide the natives with proper supplies.
Ironically, the one person who opposed the war,
Fresnoy, is the one most altered by it. His
transformation lends creedence to the notion that
heroes are created by need and aren't sprung
superior from birth.
Unobtrusive intent
Annaud's vision of humanity is far from being
optimistic or flattering, yet he depicts man's faults in
a manner that isn't offensive. His style is one of
unobtrusive intentions. Annaud allows his camera to
articulate his vision rather than burden us with
ponderous verbal exposition. A simple shot of a
native going into battle carrying his gun atop his
head concisely, and without straining, reinforces the
notion of exploitation. Annaud also utilizes Pierre
Bachelot's score in an effective way, as the misplaced
grandeur of the music often ridicules the happenings
on the screen. The director shoots many scenes from
long range, depicting the beauty and promise of a
land which remains neglected by man. The cast of
mostly unknown French actors are all fine in their
respective roles, providing enough comedy without
appearing to be downs.

Absorbing and intense

Marthe Keller is convincing as the tantalizingly teasing free spirit
who must come to grips with her fate. She remains distant for most of
the film, inviting the viewer to cpme along and explore the depths of
her mystifiying and flakey personality. This is especially evident in her
alternately strange and thoughtful lines like: “Bobby, are there homos
in Newark?" and "When you don't believe in destiny, everything

becomes dangerous, doesn't it?" In one scene, she leaves Bobby in bed
to go off "ballooning." One experiences here life's joy as she becomes a
dot amongst the multitudinous colors of the balloon regatta, wafting
over toothpick trees and the deep recesses of the meandering river
below. (On the subject of scenery, this movie has it: Europe from
below, above and beyond, all in rich and impressive hues. A travelogue

Back to Pacino. The viewer sees things through his eyes, and one
reacts to the crowd's applause, Lillian's riddles, and marvelous race
scenes along with him. At the beginning of the film, he is dull
and
the movie is subsequently slow-moving. Yet, little by little, his depth
unfurls, and the viewer is enclosed, mesmerized. The character becomes
so absorbing and intense that finally every glance, hand motion, and
whisper becomes an explosion of profound inner movement.
The cinematography is correspondingly precise. Each object, from
Pacino's watch to the very wine he drinks, has a definite reason for its
being there. And the movie's frequent long takes invite analysis and

But, on the whole, Bobby Deerfield is not the kind of film you

Any viewer going to see a movie with Al Pacino in it should expect
an intense and forceful character study. Well, Bobby Deerfield is no

Lillian Morelli, played by Marthe Keller. She finds him interesting and
decides to hitch a ride with him through the splendid scenery of
Mediterranean Europe. When she later decides that she likes him, she
says, "Hold me," and, in her hotel room, he begins to oblige, only to
find that she has fallen asleep.

by Dimitri Papdopoulos
Spectrum Music Editor

Some POWER POP for PURE PEOPLE
I'd "tike to mention that the Ramone's single
entitled "Sheena Is A Punk Rocker" (Sire; SA 746)
has been added to both The Ramones Leave Home
and their important new LP Rocket to Russia. The
Ramone's logo is not exactly a recent conception in
the music industry. Nevertheless, the Ramones
remain an underground phenomenom that deserves
more than just visual fanfare. No doubt with the
proper airplay, it could make the group just as
popular as Kiss and twice as dangerous as anything
with a safety pin through it. Hopefully the inclusion
of this track on these two albums, plus the recent
endorsement from Warner Brothers will do the trick.
Clocking in at a mere 2:45, "Sheena" is as
bouncy as anything the Beachboys have created this
decade and twice as pertinent. Ramone's fans of the
past will find that the added textured harmonies and
percussive frills supply an extra dimension that the
group needs if it is to carry its sounds into the
future. The flip side, "I Don't Care" is equally as
catchy but with a sound that closer approximates
their first LP rather than their newer refined sex.
If you liked the Box Tops (remember that
chartbuster "The Letter") or Big Star, then you'll
more than appreciate Singer Not The Song by Alex
Chiltom (Ork 81978). Thanks should be directed
towards label owner Terry Ork for helping poor little
Alex up from the skids and returning him into his
natural habitat, the recording studio. While Singer
Not The Song has it's tattered moments, the material
and arrangement match his earlier works making this
a very enjoyable EP (extended Player). Tracks
include "Free Again", 'The Singer Not The Song",
"Take Me Home and Make Me Like It", "All The
Time”, and a rave-up version of "Summertime
Blues". Sound Good? Hop on down to Play It Again

ItfCfcS
From England comes a group of banshees with
an average in age of about Brian Chevettem and last
but not least a drummer who goes by the name of
Dee Generate. Their game? Recording for the Label
(TLR 003) and playing hard driving rock and punk
roll ala Sex Pistols. Yet while the Sex Pistols have
only advanced to the point where they have the
problem analyzed (with theTf "no future" rap), Eater
has found the solution across the seas in "Thinkin’
of the U.S.A.," and so the maxim is reinforced:
McDonald's is for everyone. The B-side, "Space
Dreamin'" happens to be the first fairy tale set to
the punk stance. Check out Record Theater or Play
It Again, Sam for this one.
Record Theater also has the new and first single
by Radio Stars, one of the more subliminal bands to
storm out from the U K. And when you hear the
A-side "Dirty Pictures", and after you do the jerk to
the great picture sleeve, you'll understand what I'm
talking about. Andy Ellson, Ian Macleod and Martin
Gordon are the three gents behind this masterpiece
(Chiswick 9-A).

Imagine the musical point

counter point to

the singed sights of Buffalo's Bethlehem Steel
Corporation, that gargantuan gargantuate of molten
mass desolation. What you's probably come up with
is the most menacing tonalities this side of Hell. In
other words you'd have the music of Pere Ubu, one
of Clevelands' premier bands. Consisting of Tom

Herman, Scott Krauss, Allem Ravenstine. Tony
Maimone and a mountain of a metal man Crocus
Behemoth, Pere Ubu is as bleak as a fifties apartment
and an old world war movie combines; a band that
can honestly interpret the sonic qualities of
deprevation and industrial death. To say the least
(why stop here) "Street Waves" and "My Dark
Ages", the two songs featured on the single, would
make for the ultimo soundtrack for a documentary
on Cleveland. House of Guitars has this, but if
Rochester is too far, you can write to Crocus himself
at: 2314 Bellfield Ave., Cleveland Heights, Ohio,

Pearl, (London)
The debut album by Resile and Debbie Pearl, imaginatively
entitled "Pearl," doesn’t quite shine. However, it does glow a little.
Leslie composes, arranges, produces, plays all keyboards, and sings.
Sister Debbie sings lead. Since their voices are similar, Leslie's a bit
mellower and more pleasing, one wonders why Les bothers with
Debbie. Lots of sisterly devotion there. Anyway, the album is good
Top-40 type stuff, especially the catchy "Two is a Party" (I can dance
I'll give it an 85) and "Everybldy Needs Somebody", which
to it
would make a perfect AM hit. The rest is rather undistinguished, your
basic average tunes, good background music. (Backround to what?)
Nothing to get excited about, but watch out Pearl kinda grows on

Keith Jarret, The Survivor's Suite (ECM)
This is the hot Jarret. It's about time.
For a gentleman who periodically makes self-damaging gestures
and statements like the one Keith made in Newsweek a short while
back, he can, at times, contradict himself with a rare beauty that he
seems reluctant to reveal. As this album shows, Keith can ingeniously
unveil deep feelings singing.
A sweeping tour de force whose mood fluctuates from Africa to
Arabia to Austria and more, the colors of this flamingo's ballet spin
hand-in-hand, creating a serene warmth and vibrant splendor that has
been sorely missing from many of his more praised works of the last
few years. Originality does speak for itself, after all, and most superbly.
Charlie Haden's bass rings at times like a bass marimba, especially
when floating with Keith's bass recorder, and riding the raindrops of
Keith's celeste work. Paul Motian's drums swing with the sweet last of
persimmons, while Dewey Redman's tenor mastery speaks most
eloquently, as always, with surging might. Together, the group paints
(as the brief notes poignantly suggest) a legacy that rises above the
stagnantcy of Man's self-made despair.
The Survivor’s Suite points to more than survival, and it shows, in
Keith, a love that transcends cold, repititious arrogance. May he (and
M.F.H.
we) continue on this wise.

Lee Konitz, Paul Bley, Bill Connors, Pyramid (Improvising Artists)
It may Be said that a certain discipline is involved in freedom. In
improvisational music, this discipline manifests itself in communication
between the players involved. The ear must be aware, the mind presage,
the spirit unify and emerge. The emergence animates the form,
expansionally becoming the form. Such is the case with Pryamid, a
session done in June, 1977. The trio date features Lee Konitz on alto
and soprano saxophone, Paul Bley at the Rhodes and acoustic piano,
and Bill Connors on electric and acoustic guitar.
It is interesting to note the diverse backgrounds of the artists
involved. Konitz is perhaps best-known through his association with
pianist Lenny Tristano in the development of a post-bop expansion
school of thought. Connors, on the other hand, first appeared on the
media scene as the emotionally energetic guitarist with Chick Corea's
first all electric Return to Forever.
On the title track, Bley's piano infers both motific clock and
timeless life-sky. Connors waits, senses, searches, through the mist. The
alto sun colours an eastern sky, penetrates the mist. Pensive rejoice
resolves to the reality of day.
"Out there," the most extensive piece on the date, wanders
through the forest of Musical/Emotional moods. Sensitive ears are
beautifully apparent.
"Talk to Me."

Minds

through a diversity of harmonic and

mechanical textures.

A guitar-soprano duet, "Tavia," reveals a quiet pensive side. The
dry Konitz tone flows meditatively over Connors' accoustic contours.
Connors' aside brings Joe Pass to mind with its chordal and single line
colours.

Klaatu, Hope (Capitol)
If they ever make a movie about a land called
Politzania, Hope will surely be the soundtrack. For
in fact, Hope is a soundtrack, a conceptual excursion
to a land unseen, that heavily relies on full
orchestration to complete this psuedo-Beades motif.

program director in Washington, D.C., the names
registered under Klaatu in the copyright office in
Washington are John Woloschuk, Terry Draper,
David Long, and Dino Tome. The case is closed.
As for Klaatu’s Hope, it is an album that

introduces the components of classical and rock, but
separately rather than fusing the two. Pieces such as
the chaotic "Madman" carries steady rock strains
that interweave with distorting sound effects while
compositions such as "Prelude" lend themselves to
heavy orchestral fills. Themes run through space and
time, evoking extraterrestrial images ("Around the
Universe in Eighty Days," "The Loniiest of
Creatures"). The album itself never pauses, parts tied
together with narration, and it is these qualities that
make this soundtrack sound like an old movie.
Hope is an optimistic wish for all life; a wish
that doesn't limit itself to narrow earthly views.
Inspecting the continuum of Klaatu's music shows
that Hope picks up where the first album, Klaatu,
with its recognized anthem of world contact day,
"Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft," left
off; in hope of other life.
Forget the hoaxes that lead to material gains.

Gentle Giant, The Missing Piece (Capitol)
Gentle Giant's eighth studio album to date
cannot be called a classic like Three friends or The
Power and the Glory, but it is truly a better effort
than its predecessor. Interview.
Where Interview seemed beaten to death by
what could be called the Gentle Giant formula. The
Missing Piece gives us more of a potpourri, like the
earlier albums did. The nine songs give us a taste of
classical, jazz, a touch of Latin rhythm "Winning,"
and, of course, rock 'n roll which most people seem
to ignore in their music, but, of course, has always
been there in one form or another. All of the above
categories being used in the context of Giant's music
with their use of syncopation (stressing the off beat).
What The Missing Piece has going for it, unlike
Interview, is diversity and direction, which they
seem to have lost. The diversity already mentioned
wasn't really gone but certain motifs recently were
being driven to the ground while the direction once
again is fresh with the return of humor, joy, clearer
melodies, which in turn have made The Missing Piece
a moving and enjoyable disc.

SOUTHERN COMFORT CORPORATION. TOO PROOF LIQUEUR, ST LOUIS. MO 63137

Songs like "O'm Turning Around," "As.Old As
You're Young" and "Memories of Old Qjays" are
definitely gpirig to be Giant standards as they remind
me very much of their musical period of about five
years ago. "Betcha thought we couldn't do it" is
Giant's way of saying "We can and have always
rocked
and
rolled." This song particularly
demonstrates the use of their fine rhythm section of
Ray Shulman (bass, etc.) and John Weathers (drums,
etc.) with Gary Green sounding like hft's been
listening to Led Zep. Maybe "Winning" sounds out
of place at first, but it is definitely Giant doing some

�KKK peaceful assembly
To the Editor

In response to the letter on ‘The Age of

Paranoia,” I feel it necessary to offer a rebuttal and

then bury the issue. To begin with, I am very
suspicious of unsigned letters to me, they indicate a
sense of shame on the part of the anonymous
author. It is an unprincipled practice to say the least.
I must agree with the author’s fust sentence. Indeed
the person was so mad they could hardly see. They
could not see their irrational statements. Irrational
comments such as the lumping of all sorts of
divergent terms into one statement. A word of
advice
do not use terms sinless you are absolutely
certain of their meaning. Of course our
constitutional guarantees an supreme and that is
why I oppose any attack on them.
I hardly think the American Nazi party is an
example of peaceful assembly, for that matter is any
fascist organization. Ask the parents of the four
children who were murdered in the racist bombing
of a school in Birmingham, Alabama by the Ku Klux
-

Klan on Sept. 15, 1963 if the KKK was just
exercising their constitutional guarantee of speech
and assembly.
Up until 1954 and the Supreme Court decision
making segregation illegal and unconstitutional, the
14th Amendment was the sleeping giant of America.
Abraham Lincoln knew that the rich and powerful
had no real need of guarantees. He summed this up
in the statement “The freedom of the wolf is the
death of the sheep.” Today the situation is still the
same. Our Constitutional guarantees were fought for
by mass struggles of people. The 14th Amendment
was the end result of the Civil War a war in which
the inalienable rights of all people were put to the
-

test.

rie

I for one take the Constitutional guarantees
seriously and because of that, I will resist with ell my
strength any fascist attempt to deny or construe
these rights of which people have fought so hard to

To the Editor.

In the October 21 issue of The Spectrum, a
letter appeared from two inmates of the Attica
Correctional Facility, asking for what can only be
termed as pen-pals. They are bored and lonely.
I have never been so appalled with anything The
Spectrum has ever printed as I am now. These two
men are convicted criminals, yet they write to a
University newspaper and succeed in getting thenletter printed! What have they done to merit such
attention? The worst of it h, I know they will get
letters, for, from what I have seen, I know this
institution to be full of misguided, soft,
“humanitarian,” fools who will write them. Attica is
a high security correctional facility. These two men
are not there for stealing a loaf of bread.
Yet, why should I be surprised? 1 live in a nation
that honors its criminals, the Gary Gilmores, the
suffering Attica inmates, the thieves, murderers and
rapists. Their victims are the forgotten men, women
and children who end up terrified, deranged from
shock and grjef, or even dead.-Convicted killers stroll
unmolested across college campuses in some cities,
going to school and being model citizens until they
kill again. A woman employee of Squire Hall was
recently attacked there. What will be done with her
attackers? They will more than likely be put in
comfortable cells complete with daily recreation,
schooling if they so desire, and perhaps even a color
television set (or do they only have black and white
at Attica?) and will be on the streets sgain in six
months or so. They will have been fed, watched
over, taken care of. Their only'complaint will be lack
of “freedom.”
What about the freedom of the individual to
walk the streets without fear? Today’s criminal has

self defense, die is tormented by the courts, and, in
some cases, may even be charged with murder. If he
succeeds in raping her, the law often finds a any to

The situation is painfully dear. I am only
nineteen now, and I am faced with the prospect of
living the rest of my life in dread while we pamper
our criminals and totally ignore their innocent
victims. Never mind the men Gary Gilmore

Perhaps I should rephrase that; after having been

and one appeal only, should be taken away. I hope
that I live to see the day when we treat our criminals

�Workshop designed

for beginning sewers

i

A sewing workshop will be held to teach the basic concepts of
making simple garments and altering store bought clothes. The
workshop, jointly sponsored by Cora P. Maloney College and the
Creative Craft Center, will start today.
Infilled Creative Designing and Sewing of Clothes for
Pveryday Use. the workshop is aimed towards those whose
knowledge of the craft is limited. “It is basically a course for those
who don't know how to sew,” said instructor Norma Rizzo, whose
permission is the only prerequisite for registration. The cost of the
workshop, payable to the Craft Center, is fifteen dollars for fifteen
sessions. The class will meet every Monday and Friday night from
7:30 to 9:30 in 361 Fargo and will be limited to ten people.
Although sewing machines and cutting tables are provided, those
participating must supply their own scissors, thread and materials.
Open to all students at this University, registration for the
Workshop is being held every Monday through Friday from I to S
p.m.

in Room 120 Millard Fillmore.

Making sense of a
national health plan
“All Americans should be protected from today's extraordinary
costs ul' medical care through a national system of health

insurance,”

urged New York Governor Hugh L. Carey last month.
The adoption of a national health insurance (NH1) would prevent
further abuses already apparent in Medicaid, hospitals, private practices
and other liealth agencies.
At a hearing chaired by Joseph A. Califano, Secretary of the
Department of Health, Education and Welfare (HEW), Carey intimated
that national health insurance would “first insure pregnant women and
young children without regard to financial need.” Older children,
young adults and adults up to age sixty-four would then be added to
the program.
Senator Edward M. Kennedy (D.-Mass.) felt, “Unless a national
liealth insurance program is enacted, health costs are going to bankrupt
the American people.”
According to Califano, hospital costs are on the rise at fifteen
percent a year. However, President Carter proposed to limit these
increases to nine percent in 1978. This spending ceiling is considered a
prerequisite to national health insurance according to the
administration.
Local support
The Erie County Medical Society said it supports a “privately
operated system of national health insurance.” At a hearing in the
auditorium of the Buffalo and Erie County Public Library, the society
said it favored a system which “preserves the integrity of the
physician-patient relationship.” This system would be run by a board
of doctors and consumers and the states would be regulated by
national guidelines. The society felt that this proposal should be added
on to the present system.
Dean of the Medical School here. John Naughton, said, “For the
catastrophic inflationary effects of medical care, probably some form
of national health insurance will be developed.” He added, however,
we’re far away
that the government has “no real formulative plan
from large scale health insurance.” Naughton suggested that one
problem facing NHI is “costs fur care are greater than government
...

“There is no way of saying as yet how national health insurance
would affect the health policies (such as student health insurance) at
this University." said Naughton. “Discussions are in the formulative
stages which are often complex and contradictory.”
On the national level. Naughton conceded, “I think we are
struggling with it (NHI) and will be fur a very lung time.”

Velasco, director in charge of Administration. “In the morning the
dogs get a chance to exercise; also it’s when they get fed."
Stop bounding me
Velasco estimates that the Department has between 50-60 dogs.
He says that sometimes people come in demanding to know if Animal
Facilities has grabbed their lost dog or cat off the streets. Animal
Facilities obtains dogs that are about to be put to deep from the dog
pound. Other animals used for research are bought from companies
that breed specifically for research.
Primarily, the Department of Animal Facilities serves the Health
Sciences, including the Schools of Medicine, Pharmacy, Dentistry and
Nursing. For example, Dentistry students practice tooth extraction on
the dogs. Any department has access to the animals for research
purposes, provided Animal Facilities gives its approval. Students are
supervised by trained personnel and if anything goes wrong with the
procedure they can terminate it if they choose to. Animal Facilities has
two veterinarians and eight veterinary technicians along with a number
of supervisory and animal care personnel who are well trained in their
field, says Velasco, who would not elaborate on specific experiments.

Deans, Provosts and Chairpersons
represent another side of the
school Administration. “From my
vantage point, one out of three
faculty should be Department
Chairpersons,” he said. “Time is a
desire on the part of the graduate
students to be involved in
conjunction with faculty, which
we should definitely have.”
He said, “We can go a very long
way in affecting conditions of
when people become
GA/TAs
conscious of what they can do,
they will work harder.”
...

Performing experiments on animals is a very touchy issue. Many
think it is morally wrong to use dogs for research purposes.
“Antivivisectionists” comprise a nationwide movement against
experiments on animals. Most students realize that research trials are
part'of the training and don’t object to it, Velasco says. The
Department has had very little trouble with people refusing to do the
experiments on the grounds that it is inhumane, he adds.
When an animal is used, say for a tooth extraction, it can be used
again for a different type of experiment. Sometimes an animal can only
be used once in an experiment, other times it can be used two or three
times before being put to sleep; “sacrificed in the most humane way
possible,” says Velasco. When asked if animals have ever been
mistreated by students, Velasco claims, “In the six years I’ve been here,
there have never been any problems.’*
The Department of Animal Facilities operates under very strict
guidelines, reports Velasco. The care of the animals is regulated by the
Guide for the and Use ofLaboratory Animals as authorized by the U.S.
Department of Health, Education and Welfare. Inspectors make
periodic checks to make sure these guidelines are followed. Also every
three years they come up for re-accreditation by the American
Association for Laboratory Animal Care.

Evolution.

Self-actualization, the highest goal
of ail, represents a sort of
all-e ncompassing self-fulfillment.
If there is a breakdown in one
of the more basic needs of
Maslow’s pyramid, the others that
follow will also break down, or in
extreme cases, dissolve totally.
“Individuals on the Amherst
Campus have a
hard time
or conceptualizing
recognizing
architectural structures,” says
Danford. “The buildings seem to
have no distinct shapes or
boundaries
their internal
structures
are unclear. The
EUicott Complex especially is so
complex that students feel lost,
alienated, disoriented
all of
which can lead to psychological
depression.” Danford claims that
the architecture at Amherst can
frustrate the safety and security
level of Maslow’s pyramid to the
degree that causes a deterioration
in the individual’s overall social
fabric.
The Campus Plan, in reference
to the EUicott Complex, reads,

“The
clusters are
arranged to give an individual
identity
to each residential
college.” Danford denounced the
validity of this statement, saying,
“A major reason that students,
and even faculty, feel disoriented
and alienated by the complex is
that you can't distinguish one
building from the next. It’s bard
to identify with any one structure

Football

Bulls set to close season
against Coast Guard Cadets
by Marshall Rosenthal
Special Features Editor

The football season comes to a close tomorrow
when the Coast Guard Academy invades Rotary
Field at 1:30 p.m.
The Cadets, based in New London, Connecticut,
will be bringing a new dimension to the game when
they meet the Bulls. Offensively, they will be
showing Buffalo a multitude of formations. Lately,
they have had tremendous success with the standard
Wing T offense. Academy coach Bill Hickey says
that his young team will be mixing a combination of
running and passing, but the Cadets are more
threatening on the ground.
Halfback, co-captain Mickey Butler, will be the
individual the Bulls must contend with most. Butler
has been the workhorse of the Cadet attack this
season, amassing the majority of the Coast Guard’s
total yardage to date. In addition, Butler enters the
game as the fifth leading scorer in the nation with a
total of 13 touchdowns. At 5-10, 170 pounds,
Hickey termed Butler “one of the finest athletes we
have.”
Service teams run
Anticipating the contest, Buffalo coach Bill
Dando said, “They (Coast Guard] are very quick
and well conditioned. They’re not the biggest team
we’ve played, but they are the fastest.” Dando added
kiddingly that military schools are faster than most
teams because they are constantly on the run, and
Coast Guard mentor Hickey agreed. “1 guess that’s
true,” stated Hickey.
The Cadets will be entering the game with two
consecutive high scoring victories and Dando knows

that the momentum will be in the Academy’s favor.
“We’ll have to have a great effort to stay with
them ... and our week layoff won’t help,” stated
Dando. But nevertheless, Dando is optimistic and
expects a good game from his young Bulls.

Defensively, the Cadets will be led by co-captain
Mike Gardner, Bob Reynolds and Paul DeStefano
all of whom have played brilliantly this season.
Hickey said he plans to institute a multiple defense
“where there will be a lot of jumping around.” In
response, Dando asserted that the Cadet defense
“stings you all the time; they’re always around the
football.” Dando added that his team’s attitude and
practice of late “has been great.” He also plans to let
all squad members participate in the Bulls finale.
—

Big team
Like Dando, Hickey anticipates an interesting
ballgame. He expressed his pleasure for the contest
because his Cadet squad will be playing in a different
area and because of the unique atmosphere
surrounding the Bulls in their first season of football
since its reinstatement. “Buffalo is an entirely new
opponent for us. We are not familiar with upstate
New York teams,” said Hickey, adding, “they are a
well coached team, fundamentally sound and one of
the biggest teams we’ve faced. They run a multitude
of offenses and their defense is quite good.”

In actuality, the Bulls are no larger than their
Cadet counterparts in size. The Coast Guard squad’s
record thus far is an even 4-4, while the Bulls stand
at 0-2-1. Regardless, the game should prove to be
one of the most exciting contests the Bulls have
played this season. Dando agrees, “A class ball club
will be coming to town.”

Doyrow

This Saturday, the football Bulls will host the Cadets of the Coast
Guard Academy in their season finale at 1:30 on Rotary Field. The
Bulls enter the game with a record of 0-2-1 wrtiiie the Cadets mark is
4-4 thus far. Remember, this will be your last chance to see Buffalo
football in 1977, so don't miss it.

Support your local Brave:
thefuture of our home team

The city of Buffalo presently has many
problems. The exodus of business and people from
the area has left this city economically depressed.
The Blizzard of ’77 aggravated Buffalo’s already
poor national reputation and one of the most
controversial trials (the Long murder case) in the
city’s history is about to begin.
Against this backdrop, the question of whether
or not the Buffalo Braves basketball team will move
to another city seems minor in comparison. Braves
President Norm Sonju called the Braves “vitally
important to the city.”
Sonju asserted that the economic and emotional
well-being of the city would be adversely affected if
the Braves were to move. Since Buffalo currently has
so many problems, Sonju felt the Braves play an
important role in uplifting the spirits of the city’s
people. He stated, “Nothing gives the average
blue-collar worker more satisfaction than to come
down to the Aud and see a hustling Braves team
knock off a National Basketball Association (NBA)
power like the Celtics or the Knicks.”

Lousy images
Sonju also declared that the national image of
the city is determined by the area’s professional
sports franchises. He claimed, “People around the
that Bethlehem Steel laid off
3500 workers. All they know about Buffalo is what
they read in their sports pages.” He said professional
sports franchises are the best public relations a city
can have. Losing such franchises, he explained,
severely damages a city's national reputation.
According to Sonju, the people of Buffalo
should support the Braves, not only for enjoyment,
but because it is in the city’s economic best interest.
To substantiate this claim, he used a Chamber of
Commerce report that the Braves are worth S5.3
million to the Buffalo economy.
In spite of all the reasons Sonju discussed in

Last Saturday, during the Big Four volleyball tournament it was time
for the Hilary Schlesinger Show. Against Niagara, she scored nine
points in that game, and made five defensive spikes that returned the

her team capture its third straight Big Four tide. Schlesinger is this
week's Athlete of the Week.

favor of supporting the Braves, Buffalo sport fans are
not running over each other to buy tickets. To put it
mildly, the reaction to the Braves this year has been
anything but enthusiastic. The opening night crowd

of 4300 was the smallest in the N.B.A. this year and
in the Braves’ history. Owner John Y. Brown has
hinted that if Buffalo fans do not support the
Braves, he may move the team, possibly to his

hometown. Louisville. By examining the history of
the Braves, however, the fans' reaction is not at all
surprising.

Hesitation
The majority

of Braves' fans are taking a
“wail and see" attitude concerning this
year’s team for three basic reasons. I-irstly. the antics
of former owner Haul Snyder, has alienated many
Buffalo basketball fans against their own team.
Among other abuses Snyder heaped upon the Braves
fans were his firing of a coach only one game into
the season, his fraudulent claim of not raising ticket
prices while the seating arrangement m the And was
changed to make the same seal more expensive than
it was the previous year, and his outright selling of
two of the most popular players in the franchise's
history (Bob McAdoo and Jim McMillian) lor his
own profit.
The second reason is that many people believe
owner John Y. Brown wants to move the team at the
first opportunity. The Braves present lease with the
city stipulates that the team cannot move if the
season ticket level is over 4500. Brown uses this fact
to support his claim that Buffalo is the only city in
the league that can determine its own future
cautious

Stranger in the Knight
f inally, last year the Braves were one ol the
worst teams in the league Only one member ( Randy
Smith) of the starting five that began the season two
years ago, still remains. This year’s team has many

By virtue of the admirable man be is, Sonju has
achieved this candor. What he has not achieved is an
increase in Braves attendance. The Braves owner
confessed that this fact has left him “extremely
frustrated” and he feels “personally rejected.” He
thought that he could at least gain the “conditional
support” of the fans, by having them attend the
early season games and judging for themselves if they
should return.

.

&gt;

ALL ARE WELCOME
Sonju asserted that he will continue to
vigorously promote the Braves until the people of
Buffalo are “won over." He stated that he does not
“know what will turn the people on to the Braves,”
but he will continue to try until this happens.
What could bring the fans back to the Aud is the
Braves performance on the court. The Philadelphia
76ers had some of the most imaginative promotions
M the league (including a singing pig), but they did
not start selling out until they acquired players

George McGinnis and Julius Ervin*.
In spite of Sonju’s enthusiasm and honesty, the
fan reaction to the Braves will be determined by
circumstances beyond his control. Paul Snyder’s past
and John Y. Brown’s future actions will have a much
greater effect on the Braves attendance than any
promotional gimmick Sonju could conjure up.
Unfortunately for him, Sonju must pay for debts he
has never truly owed. The Braves are definitely an
asset to the city and Norm Sonju is definitely an
asset to the Braves, but because of past and possible
future controversies, the Buffalo sports fans will be a
tough lot to win over.

the NBA’s second leading scorer last year, it will take
time for him to win over the Buffalo fans.
Since Sonju took over the job as President of
the Braves, he has made an extraordinary effort to
promote the Braves; He has personally answered over
300 letters of complaints, spoken to over 80 local
civic organizations, and greatly improved the image
of the team. Compared to the Snyder regime, Sonju
seems to be a breath of freah air. He stated that he
wants to be as “open, honest, and straightforward'
with the Buffalo fans as possible.”

&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;

Students who have toiled on the ID card line
this semester have not received any paychecks for
services rendered.
The students, hired by the Office of Admissions
and Records (AAR), took photographs and
laminated the ID’s. When their paychecks failed to
arrive, the students collectively wrote a letter to The
Spectrum complaining of the delay.
According to Assistant Director for Systems
Management Richard Canale, the delay in processing
of the payroll checks can be blamed on the large
number of students who quit after working for a
short period of time. Cr lie noted that while in past
years his office has hired between 15-20 students,
“there has been a vast turnover of student
employees,” forcing AAR to hire 35 students this
year.
The

turnover rate
caused administrative
problems and a backlog of required paperwork.
Before a timesheet is sent to the payroll office, the
hours worked by the student have to be verified. The
delay caused by the required verification of an
unusually large number of timesheets, coupled with
cutbacks in office personnel at AAR, snarled the

said.

, Canale reported that the delays have now been
overcome and “the timesheets have been sent to the
payroll office.” This, however, will not bring
immediate financial relief to the ID workers.
If all goes according to plan the time sheets will
spend “about a week in the payroll office,”
according to Supervisor Joyce Bernhard. The
information on the timesheets is transferred to the
necessary forms, balanced and the correct amount
that the student should receive is entered on the
forms. These forms are sent by mail to the Office of
Audit and Control in Albany.
It is the Office of Audit and Control that
actually prints the paychecks. “That process takes
less than a week In some cases,” stated Mr. John
Fadica, chief audit clerk. “If, for example, payroll

(November 4), then conceivably the checks could be

Battle of the Record Co-op: possible cover-up of
Cavages voices new charges the Long murder case
by Ann Bryan
Spectrum Staff Writer

Carl Cavage, owner of Cavage’s Record Store,
has added charges of property and financial damages
to his two-year-old suit against the Record Coop at
this University.
Association (SA)
Undergraduate Student
Attorney Richard Lippes said he will argue for a
motion to strike the amended material in court on
Friday. The case is currently in the State Supreme
Court.
In October of 1975, Cavage complained that the
Record Coop was competing unfairly with the
Cavages store on Main Street (in the University
Plaza). Cavage felt the Coop was able to charge lower
prices, due to the fact that it was on state property
and aided by taxes, and hence, it was illegitimately
drawing business away from his Main Street store.
Cavage claimed that, in effect, he was funding his
competition.

As a result of this complaint. Vice President for
Finance and Management Edward Doty issued a
memorandum in October of 1975 to the President of
SA, Michelle Smith, ordering the Coop to close its
doors and shut down operations within two weeks.
This memo asserted that the Coop was an illegal
commercial enterprise undfer its present conditions.
Moves?
At this time, the University administration
suggested that the Coop move to a location
off-campus or resettle under the direction of the
Faculty-Student Association (FSA). The members of
the Coop were opposed to this suggestion, saying it
would be too difficult and expensive, and that it
would be defeating the purpose of a non-profit
student coop to move off-campus. There was also
reluctance in joining with the FSA, due to its
“profitmaking urges,” according to Coop President
Lenny Rollins.
One month later, University President Robert
Ketter overruled Doty’s resolution and allowed the
Coop to reopen under new guidelines: the Coop was
limited to a gross sale of $10,000 per month; it had
to maintain an inventory of not more than
approximately $20-22,000; and it had to issue
monthly income statements to Ketter and the
director of Norton (now Squire) Hall, James Gruber.
Two lawsuits were then filed by Cavage, the first
one charging Ketter with illegally reopening the

Coop after limiting its sales to $10,000, and the
second charging the Coop with unfair competition.

Coop stays
SA was named co-defendant in the lawsuit.
Today, the Coop remains open under the guidance
of SA while legal problems are being resolved.
The attorneys handling the Coop-Cavage lawsuit
are Lippes, who is defending SA, the State Attorney
General defending Ketter, and Charles Sandler
representing Carl Cavage. When asked about legal
proceedings, Rollins stated, “They’re not doing too
much as far as I’m concerned.”
Rollins complained that the restriction of gross
sales has forced the Coop to remain open for only a
few short hours a day. He especially lamented the
reduced selection of albums, resulting from the
limitations on the inventory and the increasing costs
of albums. The Coop is also presented from
advertising. He claimed that several other state
universities are awaiting decisions to open new
coops, and acknowledged the possibility that this
University’s trouble is having an adverse effect on
those decisions.
Lowest prices
Rollins pointed out the advantages of using the
Coop, claiming: the Coop is restricted to students of
this University; all the workers in the Coop are
volunteers; there is only an approximate 5 percent
markup on albums; and the Coop has lower prices
than any other record store in Buffalo.
Student opinions of the Coop vary
The low prices were praised, and several
students strongly urged students here to boycott all
Cavages stores. One student claimed he doesn’t go to
the Coop anymore because “I just spend too much
Most students
money in there. I’d go broke.”
however expressed annoyance at the short hours.
One student also complained the help was very slow
and that “It gets annoying when you’re in a hurry to
get to class.” But he attributed the slowness to “the
attempts of the staff to prevent thefts.” Other
students said that although the Coop has lower
prices than any record store in Buffalo, they could
still pick up albums at a cheaper price at a record
sale in a large department store.
The Record Coop is open Monday-Friday
(except Wednesday) from 12:15 to 2:30 p.m., and
on Tuesday and Wednesday nights from 6:30 to
8:30 p.m.

John Ludtka, the Buffalo homicide detective in charge of
presenting the Police Department’s evidence to a Grand Jury
investigating the Richard Long murder case, withheld his knowledge of
two potential witnesses to the car chase which proceeded the June 25
murder, according to Stanley A. Morse, the principle eyewitness in the
The potential witnesses, two women, were in the same car as Louis
Adagio, a witness who has testified before the Grand Jury. The Courier
Express reported on October 13 that the two women “were known to
a detective at the onset of the investigation, but he was overtired and
neglected to initially file a report on them.”
That detective has since been identified by Buffalo Homicide Chief
Leo J. Donovan, and by Asst. District Attorney Timothy J. Drury as
Ludtka.
Asst. DA Drury did not learn of the two potential witnesses until
Morse, acting on his own, contacted him by phone. The two women
were known to Adagio, and Detective Ludtka for three months before
the District Attorney’s office was informed that they were in the same
auto from which Adagio witnessed the chase at Kenmore and Starin
Avenues.
Drury, when asked if he found it unusual that Ludtka told Morse
before telling his boss in homicide (Donovan), replied: “I’m not sure if
Ludtka told him, but then again, a lot of people learn things ahead of
the Police Department.”
Morse charged that “This evidence concealed by Detective Ludtka
is just a tip of an iceberg of facts in the investigation that they don’t
want to become public knowledge.”
Ludtka has not been reprimanded for having withheld his
knowledge of the potential witnesses for three months.
Adagio himself is a former police officer and was employed five
years ago on the same floor of police headquarters as Gary Atti, a
defendant in the beating death of Long. Adagio worked in the
Homicide Division under Ludtka and Atti was a member of the
Narcotics Division.

‘I asked him’
That Patrolman Gary Atti, accused of participating in the beating
death of Richard Long, Detective John Ludtka, and witness Louis
Adagio, who formerly worked in Homicide under Ludtka knew each
other before Long was killed n July is public information, but how
far their relationship extended is not known.
Donovan said, “They were in the cadet program at the same time.”
Upon being asked if they were friends, he responded, “I doubt it. They
were from two different ethnic groups. Adagio is a Puerto Rican from
the East Side and Atti is a West Side Italian. They might have known
each other, but I’m not positive.”
Assistant DA Drury said that they knew each other “in passing'

but that “they weren’t friends.” When asked how he knew, Drury
responded, “I asked him [Adagio].”
Withholding witnesses detrimental
According to Donovan, no action was taken “mainly because we
weren’t aware of it. He [Adagio] is married, he had a company car and
wasn’t supposed to have tootsie with him.” Donovan continued that
while he recently discovered that Ludtka knew of the two women who
accompanied Louis Adagio that night, “1 took his word that he asked
Adagio. He [Adagio] said that they saw and heard nothing.”
Drury said that he knew nothing of the two women with Adagio
the night of the chase until told by Morse three ahd a half weeks ago,
but that once he found out, he also “took the word of Adagio that
they knew nothing.” Drury thought that the withholding of witnesses
was detriment'll to the investigation, saying “1 think it was a mistake.”
He continued, “Homicide is given leeway in any shift, morning,
afternoon, evening
the men in homicide arc able to conduct the
investigation entirely on their own.”
...

Information damaging
According to Morse, the two women were concealed by Ludtka
because “the information they potentially carried was in his mind more
damaging to one of the policemen involved in the case.” He went on,
“I found out that there were two more young women in the car of
Louis Adagio, the witness at Kenmore and Starin. When it was reported
to Ludtka, he said he was aware there was at least one other young
woman who was a witness and didn’t bother to inverview her because
he was told by another person that she didn’t see anything. Ludtka
dropped it at that.”
Ludtka was unavailable for comment on his handling of the
investigation. Drury felt that key witness Morse has geen “very
accurate and very helpful” in supplying police with information about
the case.

�Professional writer
in the White House
by Terry Martin
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Presidential spcechwriter Griffin Smith claimed, in an informal
gathering here, Saturday, that people in his profession must choose

their words very carefully.
Said Griffin, “People and reporters can take just a slice of what
you say and attach too much significance to what is, ultimately, only
your opinion or impression.”
Smith, one of President Carter’s five speechwriters, is a lawyer.
After being Editor of his college newspaper, he tried his hand at
professional writing, working for Texas Monthly, eventually landing a
job iti the White House. “It’s just a matter of luck to be chosen a
speechwriter,” said Smith. “The best education is a liberal arts
background, but it’s not a goal that you can really work towards.”

Different issues
Smith said the writers are “conscious, when writing, of hearing

Carter speak it but it’s impossible to write like him. We do change the
style, to fit Carter’s speech, and purposefully avoid the rhetoric that
marked the Kennedy years. We are mainly concerned with style.”
Writers also work on messages to Congress, which, Smith said, he likes
better than apeechwriting because “they can be written the way they
are supposed to be.”
Smith stated that he enjoys his working for the President, claiming
“there’s a lot
variety in the material we work on. We move through
different international issues every week. Sometimes I may disagree
ethically with the stand that Carter is taking, but I get a personal
satisfaction frdm seeing the way his policies are arrived at.”

Campus Editor

The Ellicott Complex is being occupied by
unwanted furry, gray guests, namely mice. This is
the first time that mice, which have been spotted
scurrying through student dorm rooms, have posed a
problem according; to Director of Campus Police,
Lee Griffin.
Griffin, who said complaints about the mice are
minimal, believed the mice are seeking shelter in the
dorms because their homes have been distrubed by
campus construction. “It’s not unusual for mice to
seek shelter from the cold,” he said.
Mouse traps and poison have been planted in
strategic areas to combat the problem, according to
Director of Environmental Health and Safety,
Robert Hunt.'Hunt, who also agrees that the
problem is new, said, “We have an exterminator
who’s on Call, and when we have a complaint, we call
him.”
Although Hunt agreed that the use of poisons
may cause mice to die while they are inside walls or
other crawlspaces, he maintained that “the little
carcases decompose and dehydrate in no time,” and
that the odor would only be unpleasant for a couple
of days. Hunt claimed (hat workers from the
Environmental Health and Safety office are “putting
out poison and toxic powder, but, we don’t seem to
be winning the battle.”

According to Smith, several of the speechwriters often collaborate
on writing the speeches. They are usually given a 2-3 week advance
notices to write a speech, although they may be given as little as two
days warning. Smith said it is their job to write up drafts from which
Carter makes last-minute revisions. “It is not unusual,” Smith stated,
“to end up making 10-12 drafts. No matter how early you begin
preparing these, they are never done until the last minute when Carter
reviews them.” He explained that, “None of the speechwriters has
more importance or weight than the others; if a dispute arises, we send
in different drafts to the President, and he chooses from among them.”
How does one actually go about writing a speech? According to
Smith, the writers must speak to the specialists on party line and to
members of each of the departments after being given some idea of
what the speech Will entail. “Each department has its own peculiar
style of jargon which you begin to recognize,” Smith said. “Sometimes
though, 1 cannot for the life of me figure out what they mean.” Writers
are advised of the demographics of the population that will constitute
the audience Carter is to address. “Nixon had an ideological array of
speechwriters,” Smith said. “He would assign a certain speech to a
writer of that background, but that is no longer done.”

the

enlarged rodent

which has affected both campuses, is a
result of the cutback in rodent control by Erie
County, and that many rodents are fleeing from the
city. Last year, the Erie County Rodent Control
problem,

was a result *of manjifebpen entranceways through
which mice and other,fcp'dents crawled. “From time
to time,” Cudeck

long-term rodent treatment,
as opposed to
widespread use of traps and poisons, is not feasible.
“The problem won’t big; corrected once and for all.
It’s the kind of problem we can’t really solve,” he
said.

Cudeck, whose office is in the Spaulding Quad
of the Ellicotf Comply, claimed he has.seen “larger

“They’re a drag. I can hear them at night scurrying
through the heaters, and I think we’re going to have
this problem all year.v-Paxson, who lives in a triple
room in Wilkeson Quad of the Ellicott Complex,
described her first -experience with mice as

Paxson said that she is supplied with mouse
traps by the hnvironmental Health and Safety Office

neighbor of hers, who “won’t kill a mouse for no

“didn’t look like a field, mouse. It was gray and furry
with little pink ears and so cute I didn’t want to kill
it.” Paxson feels something more could be done
about the situation. “They (Housing) don’t have to

According to Director of Housing Maintenance,
Cudeck, the infestation of mice in the
Ellicott Complex “started during the summer,” and

Many students are amazed at the way mice are

DeMott lectures in Moot
It must seem at times that the writers whose
work appears in these pages are obsessed with the
preceding generation of college students and with
comparing yesterday’s activism with today’s
complacency. Tomorrow at 8 p.m. in the Law
School’s Moot Court, the cultural question of
students in the ’60’s and ’70’s will be raised once
more by noted writer and critic Benjamin
DeMott. His presentation is the James Fenton
Lecture, usually the University’s most prestigious
intellectual event.
DeMott brings with him a long list of

credentials. Currently a professor of English at
Amherst College, DeMott writes a regular column
in the Atlantic and has contributed articles,
columns, essays and book reviews to Harper's ,
the New Republic , the New York Review the
New York Times Book Review, among other
journals. He has published two novels and four
collections of essays, the most recent of which is
Surviving in the Seventies. The title of DeMotl’s
lecture (in O’Brian Hall at Amherst) is “The
Changing Student.” We strongly suggest you

�Summer study in Quebec
by Cindy Dietz

Spectrum

Staff Writer

A summer study program at Laval University,
designed to teach I Tench and French culture, is
being sponsored by
UB’s French Department
Director of Undergraduate Studies, Pierre Aubery.
(.aval, the oldest French speaking university in
North America, is located in Quebec City and offers
a program which consists of five hours of daily
instruction, including one hour of lab a day, and
field trips to areas of interest in and around Quebec.
According to Aubery. no prerequisites are required
for participation in the program. “A student can go

there cold,” he said.
Tests are administered to students in an attempt
to determine which of eight levels (ranging from
beginner to advanced) of study would best serve the
individual. According to Aubery, the six week “total
immersion” program is unique because it not only
offers students a chance to leant French but
enlightens them to one of the most exciting places in
Canada and North America today, Quebec.
The cost of spending a summer which combines
travel with academics is cheaper in comparison to a
trip to Europe, Aubery said. He claimed there is less
chance of experiencing a cultural shock, since home
is only a few hours away and phone calls are

said.
Martin described some of the highlights of her
summer. "On weekends we went to places like
Montreal and saw ‘Man and His World,’ which was
part of Expo ’67,” she said. “We walked down St.
Catherines Street where there were movie houses and
shops and saw Vieux Montreal (Old Montreal) which
is like Greenwich Village.” She said the sights were
beautiful and she was impressed with the modern
metro system and a playground called “Le Ronde.”
At St. Jean Port Joli the home of a Maritime
Museum, she saw scale model ships and a movie on
the Arctic. There, she stopped to watch woodcarvers
whittle animal figurines in one of the many shops
which are noted for work of this kind. Martin
explained that she also attended picnics and a party
at her -instructor’s farm at the end of her six week
.

stay.

Unpressured and informal
Martin was one of about 280 students
participating in the Laval program from the United
States and said she had a “great time” learning about
the culture of Quebec and visiting patisseries
(bakeries) and brasseries (bars) where folk songs
were sung and spoons were played. In describing
Laval she said, “The campus was gorgeous, with
tunnels built under it because of the snow they get.”
She remarked that her class was small and her
instructor was enjoyable. “He didn’t make you feel
dumb if you didnlt know a word,” she said. “It was
very unpressured and informal.”
At first, she had difficulty understanding the
French accent because it differed from the accent
she was used to in college, but she claimed she now
likes the French Canadian accent better than the
Parisian accent. Aubery admitted the accent is a
little different from that heard in France,

relatively cheap.
Aubery, who taught summer school at Laval in
I960, said he is looking forward to organizing a
group to go to Quebec. He plans to hire a Resident
Director to assist students during their stay and help
integrate what they learn in French Quebec by
offering weekly seminars.
Last year, this University cancelled the proposed
summer program due to budgetary problems. “Vice
President Bunn cancelled the program along with
other new and untested programs,” Aubery said.
This year the program has the support of the Faculty
of Arts and Letters and the French Department.

Pinball illegal in city
by Daniel Hannafin
Spectrum Staff Writer
This

summer,

the

Buffalo

Police Department’s Vice Squad
seized two pinball machines from
Wings and Things, a sub shop on
Heath Street. Since 1951 pinball
has been illegal in the City of
Buffalo.
A pinball scandal occurred in
1951 and prompted the City
Council to outlaw the game. In
that year, thirteen people were
indicted on charges of conspiracy,
extortion, bribery and taking of
unlawful fees, stemming from
their involvement with pinball.
Among the thirteeen indicted
were four City Councilmen, the
Deputy Police Commissioner and
three
Police Captains. Since
shortly after the indictments, the
City’s regulatory ordinances have
defined a pinball machine as “a
gambling device.”

Alan Dreuder,
one of the
owners of Wings and Things, said
he didn’t think the law would be
enforced. He didn’t receive any
public
complaints about the
machines, but a local woman

complained
to
the
police.
According to Kreuder, he was told
to remove the machines, and was
ready to do so, when the vice
squad came, the same day the
warning was issued.

�As a

i*

To the Editor.
Is it possible to appeal to the faculties of this
med-student, Richard Grazi, to explore,the reality of
the oppression I experience as a woman? Here are
some of the facts: if one manages to escape role
casting in the home, the first thing our education
system does is clarify the proper place of the
respective sexes, if not directly through the
instructors, via textbooks. The majority of women
are prepared from infancy to become mothers. The
majority of men are prepared to become bread
winners. Next, the media depicts women as joyful
attenders to their mundane job, i.e., singing, “Wake
up your wood” while you dust.
Dick Grazi states in his letter, “The historically
‘’"ferior status’ of women was imposed by women
on themselves as much as it was imposed by men.” I
just don’t know about that, and wonder how Dick
found out. Women are not given any historical
models from which we might begin to understand
the plight of women in society. All accounts of
history I’ve ever read have only presented the male
prospective of what came down. They all left women
out. Sure, we all learn about a few famous women,
but what were the masses doing? To find out I’m
told I should take a “special” history course. Just as
men neglected to put us in the books, there is now
no sign of the administration recognizing the need to
integrate our existence into every course.
A few things 1 did manage to pick up; the
“divine right” of kings in fuedal times was not
imposed by the queen. Also, the male-dominated
medical profession has often mysticized and mislead
women about their own bodies. At the same time
black women were slaving in the fields and giving
birth without missing a stroke of the hoe, upper-class
white women were being pampered, treated as
sickly, and assured of the need for them to stay in
bed while pregnant by their well-paid doctors.
Women have often been presented with fragile
doll-like images to model their behavior after. We are

constantly being assured of our need for protection.
Meanwhile, the fashion world continually provides
us with clothes that minimize our ability to defend
ourselves and maximize our need for protection.
Mr. Dick also makes reference to the following
insight of. his, “women, discrimination aside, have
always enjoyed the same benefits
as their male
counterparts.” The casualness with which he drops
...

those

words, “discrimination aside”

leaves me

wondering why he wrote the letter. I love a little
idealism myself, but affirmative action is only a
token of the realistic steps which must be taken to
repair the damage of that discrimination. If he is
referring to the land of equal opportunity we find at
college, there isn’t much point speaking to him.
Fortunately, there are a few women with the
strength to pursue a profession despite the social
stigmatisms. But this is not enough. Our lack of
understanding alleviating the pressures on us to
accept our traditional role is not due to lack of
intelligence or need. It is a result of too few places to
look for encouragement and too little practice in
trusting the validity of our own feelings.
Grazi makes some nebulous implication that
women have an equal share in university faculty
positions. I can only suggest that the heavy load on
this med-student limits his interactions with reality.
The statistics for this University according to the fall
1976 EE06 report are: 8.25 percent female tenure
faculty; 7.14 percent female on-track non-tenure
faculty; 3.64 percent non-tenure female faculty.

That leaves us with a total of 19.03 percent female
faculty.
Finally, I would like to say that it is unfortunate
that Dick’s particular case may be representative of a
widespread neurosis. I hope it is not of an
unalterable sort. As women are refusing, in
increasing numbers, to ignore our inferior position,
Dick will also have to face the fact that change and
its administrative facilitation are imminent.

has read something about
I am~a “KMT"

by Ronney Chih
A Graduate Student
On Friday, October 28, there was an article in The Spectrum,
“Chinese Student Association Charges KMT Spying" written by
Harvey Shapiro. I and most other Chinese students felt that it is a
big irresponsible lie. Besides taking legal actions, 1 believe that this
is time for me to defend ourselves publicly. The reason why I have
to speak out is not just to defend “KMT,” but to clarify the
reputation of all Chinese students, i don’t want people to think
that “Chinese students are spying, fighting each other, causing
troubles. . etc., just because one or two of us want to make it
sound so.
y
The points I want to make are:
.

1. CSA did not charge “KMT”
It is amazing that Shapiro, as a staff writer of The Spectrum,
could use that title for his article, just because two students said so
with nothing to back it up. It is not forgiveable. Certainly, the
President of CSA denied this charge at once. The charge has
nothing to do with CSA. (CSA has about 400 members.)
-

2. What is “KMT
It is essential to know what is “KMT” and who are the
“KMT’s before we can clarify those charges. (I will try to make it
is simple and as subjective as possible.) KuoMinTang
The
Chinese Nationalist Party, Kuo means nation, Min means people,
and Tang means party. It is a political party for China and the
Chinese. It is equivalent to the Democratic or the Republican party
here. “KMT” was usually by Communist
to erase and then to
distort the meaning and purposes of this party. Some of the
students from Taiwan, the Republic of China are members of the
Nationist party. We have no missions here
in a foreign country.
Like most other Chinese students, we just want to learn some new
knowledge, to have friends and to know this country. We are

To the Editor

Why don’t you be a nurse? Why don’t you be a
secretary? Or how about becoming an elementary
schoolteacher? Yes, these questions sound familiar if
you are a woman. Yet, if these same questions are
put to a man seeking career guidance, then they pose
a threat to the man’s virility, his “male status.” The
only roles that are frequently afforded to women
place them into passive and, sometimes, sexually
dominated positions. This mentality runs through
every aspect of our male dominated culture.
In The Spectrum of 10/26, Richard Grazi, med.
’81, states that while blacks have been the victims of
“erstwhile injustice,” “the same cannot be said when
the issue turns to women.” Mr. Grazi, does a human
have to be subjugated to slavery for his or her
existence to be deemed “erstwhile injustice?” Or is it
true that the oppression that is dealt to one group of
people by another becomes any less real when there

exists another minority whose oppression has been
more “erstwhile?” Does the genocide committed by
the U.S. on the Indian population make the black
experience in America any less unimportant?
Mr. Grazi says that women themselves have
imposed an “historically inferior statiis” upon

themselves and that they therefore are as much to
blame for their discrimination as the men are. Does
this mean that women had to fight themselves to
gain the right to vote? Or does this mean that
women have maintained their own “inferior status”
in order to pay themselves lower wages than a man is
paid? Because all this can mean is that poor women
undoubtedly do not want the right to have free
abortions. It all seems to point to some sort of fetish
for self-discrimination.
But the crux of Mr. Grazi’s argument seems to
rest on the assertion that reverse discrimination does
actually exist. For he says that even if an institution
must impose a policy of reverse discrimination in
order to do away with discrimination of a minority
then the institution is justified in doing so. But the
truth is that affirmative action programs do not
discriminate against the majority. The well-to-do
white male is still the majority in our society, as well
as in our professional schools. To believe that Mr.
Grazi and his attack on Ms. Lapidus are correct is to
fail to see the facts and conditions that exist in this
country.

Extremely had taste
To the Editor

Your Halloween front page design left much to
be desired
tact! To degrade an individual, be he
the President of the United States or not, in such a
fashion is to give vent to your prejudices.
If a picture had appeared on campus, exposing
the stereotyped Jews or the stereotyped blacks
supposed “characteristics,” however true or false,
they might be in that specific case. The Spectrum
would rightly have been one of the first in the
-

vanguard to decry this act of stupidity.
Yet you yourselves are guilty of reducing a
respectable,
nationally-known
figure
to the

‘Southern White’ stereotype.
I repeat, to poke fun at a person because of his
facial features or patterns of speech is derogatory,
naive, and in extremely bad taste.
I suggest that The Spectrum revalue its position
or become more consistent in its present policies.

Suuuch garbage
To the Editor

I was very annoyed when on Friday, October
28th, 1 opened the copy of The Spectrum and saw
the “nonsense” written underneath the ad for
Tuesday’s Chicago concert. Since the Prodigal Sun
comes out only once a week, 1 would think they
would have the intelligence not to print such

garbage.

The author of the advertisement made a vicious
attack on the group for no reason. First the
comment was made that if you want good jazz/rock
you should get the first Blood, Sweat and Tears
album? Why is this Ms. Komansky and staff
because it doesn’t have any well known 45’s (a
definite no-no for “cool” record reviewers) and
-

because it's supposedly progressive?? Why not B.S A
T, 2,3, or 4?? Too commercial for ya??
Also, the caption stated that at $6.50 and $7.50
the tickets were too expensive. I’d like you to show
me one group today who doesn’t charge those prices.
The only exceptions are the people like David
and if
Bromberg, who get booked into Clark Gym
Chicago can sell out the Memorial Aud, how could
they possibly play Clark Gym?? This was just a
vicious attack, plain and simple, and I don’t even
know why it was printed. As editor for music, Ms.
Komansky should use more taste. If Chicago is “too
tenny-bopper” for college crowds
why even print
the picture to begin with??

ordinary students.

3. Who are the ones who charge us
Mong-Heng Tan and Peter Tuen, they are two very “active”
students. One of them was the President of CSA, who just resigned
because people wanted to pitch him out for his dictatorship. The
other one left a CSA meeting last Saturday, because of interrupting
the meeting procedure. (Calling the police was mentioned by one
of the CSA executives before he left.)
They wrote articles in The Spectrum before, charging the same
thing. They are very active in Mao-Tse-Tung’s Thought studies, in
bringing lecturers talking about Communism, and also in China
Study Group (Communist China’s propaganda
as I understand).
They are students with unusually strong political stands. They
cannot
in any way - represent Chinese students.
-

-

4. Who are we (Chinese students)
I, like most other Chinese students, came here to study, not
for political reasons. We never thought about writing anything
here. You might never have heard of our names unless knowing us
even in many cases with
personally. We can get along very well
different political beliefs. We care and talk about politics, but not
in a crazy way. We do not want to cause troubles. We are not
‘spying’ upon each other. That is us. Please don’t be confused.
-

5. Yes ‘Communist literature available'
This is the last paragraph of Shapiro’s article.
Isn’t it a wise way for propaganda? When students go abroad
to study from the Republic of China, our government does not
forbid us to read Communist propaganda, nor to watch their
movies. It would be foolish to forbid anything. On the contrary,
we are encouraged to do so, to compare and to think. Because our
government believes that we are mature human beings, who could
and should make our own choices about anything. Every Chinese
student I know has read something about “Communist literature.”
We discuss it freely. Don’t you think it is ridiculous that Shapiro
could believe people are spying other’s reading material, here in
this free country?

6. Ask somebody
There are students from the Republic of China, who are
permanent residents or citizens of U.S.A. At least, they can “talk
freely.” So ask somebody! Please!
There is nothing more to say, except
demanded from those would should.

The program will begin with a

the four workshops being offered.
Students will have the chance to
attend any two of the Workshops
which are entitled Coping with
Commuting,

and
Vegetate
Grievances,

Stress. “Hopefully, these four
workshops will cover
any
problems that a freshman at this
University is faced with,” said one
of the orientation workers.

Orientation ’77 is sponsoring a
one night program, Thursday,
entitled Transition ’77. The
program,
geered
towards
freshmen, is a part of ongoing
orientation.
The orientation staff views
orientation as an ongoing process,
rather than as an event, according
to a spokesman. The staff also
believes that the freshmen now
have a better idea of what they
want
and

University than they did during Coping with Commuting

will be representatives from

Association (SA), and Sub Board.
After a ten minute introductory
session, everyone will split up and
get a chance to meet with a
student representative, and find
out about a specific activity.
Struggling with Stress
is
designed as a stress management
workshop. Program Consultant
for Orientation Roxy Pomeroy
said, “Since most people do not

Switchingfrom gas to coal
by Dave Andrews
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Since 1932, the Gerald F.
McKay Power Plant at this
University has had an intricate
heating system capable of running
on gas, oil or coal. “It’s probably
the only institution in New York
State that has this capacity,” said
David Thoads, Assistant to the
Director of the Power Plant.
“Before Ford’s proposal to cut
gas consumption last year we
burned gas, oil and mainly, coal,
said Rhoads. “In the third week
of January, Jerry Miller, an
official at National Fuel Gas
called us and requested an
immediate halt to any gas usuage,
so they wouldn’t be forced to
reduce the amount of fuel piped
into city customers.”
“We said we’d switch fuels the
next day,” recalled Rhoads, “but
they said to do it that night. It
was late on a Sunday.” He added,
“We’ve decided to desist most of
our gas consumption this year,
and burn coal almost entirely.
Coal is definitely cheaper in the
cold winter months, but gas is

The coal is dumped through holes

Underground heat
A coal “larry” transfers the
coal from the bunker to one of
the four coal-burning boilers. Coal
enters through the front of the
boiler on a grate situated on a
conveyor belt, moving “to the
rear of the bus.” Even if gas is
strictly used, “there must always
be coal on the grate, so that it
doesn’t burn up,” said Thoads,
red-faced from the boiler heat.
Coal is burned to supply
energy for heating water. The
water is then converted to steam
by a steam header pipe and sent
to the basement, and finally
underground to all of the
buildings. The system is quite
similar to the digestive process.
After coal is burned, it is
converted into ashes which are
hauled away, and used for road

125 pounds of pressue are
continuously distributed through

buildings require only 15 to 20
pounds, reducing valves are
required in each building to lower

“over 2,000,000 pounds of steam

matter.”
Drastic money savings are
realized with return lines that
send steam in the form of resuable
water, from campus buildings
back to a tank in the heating

9:30 a.m.

Residents of Goodyear Hall were forced to evacuate their
rooms and remain outside of the building for over twenty minutes
due to a false fire alarm on Friday, October 28. This Is just one
incident of many that are plaguing the University.
Of the 45 fire alarms that were turned in between January and
September of this year, 39 were false, according to Director of
University Police, Lee Griffin.
All of the fire alarms on campus are connected to the
University Police Headquarters on Millersport Highway. If the alarm
is from the Main Street Campus, the Buffalo Fire Department will
respond immediately. If the alarm is called in from the Amherst
Campus, University Police will verify the alarm before calling in the
Fire Department. If there is a fire in a residence area, the Resident
Advisors can also call in the Fire Department. The reason for this,
said Griffin, is ‘The Amherst Campus is served by the all-volunteer
Getzville Fire Department. The frequency of false alarms on the
Amherst Campus is so great that they cannot respond to every call
that they receive.” Griffin said that there was a period when there
were over 70 false alarms in one month.
A new fire alarm system was installed in all of the Main Street
dormitory buildings according to Director of Environmental Health
and Safety, Bob Hunt. The new system was installed because old
systems “did not conform with State codes,” said Hunt. Some of
the changes made included the addition of more heat detectors,
smoke detectors, and pull stations. In order to conform with the
present State codes, “Smoke barrier doors, standpine sytems, and
sprinkler systems have been installed,” according to Hunt. Another
addition to the fire alarm system is the installation of enunciator
panels. These panels will indicate exactly where in a building a fire
alarm was turned in.
The new system, which was being tested during the week of
October 17, is, according to Hunt, “almost operational.”

remains barefoot during the
meeting.
Sets of postures called Kriyas

Teacher of the class Sat Kaur
Khalsa expresses that through the
use of these elements ofKundalini
Yoga, one is able to “channel the
infinite energy that surrounds us
order to expand one’s

to full human potential.”
Kundalini is but one form of
Yoga. Yogi Nitin Kumar, in his
book Aerobics and Yoga describes
other types of Yoga: Hatha,
Kharma, Gnana, Bhakti and Raja
as stages of achieving control of
mind and body in order to pin a

level
of
superconsciousness.
Khalsa states that in comparison,
Kundalini is a more intense Yoga.
“It works more quickly physically
and in expansion of awareness.”
But she stresses that no one
except the individual can raise the
consciousness for himself.

This is done by changes and
rapidity of breath alternating right

through right and left sides of the
nose," she explains.
Khalsa teaches three classes
here, two classes at Buffalo State
College and two at Canisius
College. In the Spring, she will
teach a course offered by
Women’s Studies College dealing
with such topics as healing, herbs
and acupuncture. Four nights a
week, instruction is given at the

Brockport heats UB,
Harriers improving

m:
■k,

On Wednesday, October 26, the cross country Bulls hosted a
determined Brockport squad, and came away with av2?-32 loss.
Brockport placed its runners in the 1-2-4-7-9 positions to come away
with the victory. UB, however, was able to place its scorers in the
3-5-6-8-19 spots to make it a close race.
Mike Fischer, once again, was first in for the Bulls with a time of
25:34. He was followed by John Ryerson (fifth) at 25:59, and Bruce
Goldstein (sixth) at 26:08. Tim Sheehan was eighth in 26:25 and Tony
Markut closed the scoring with a tenth place, 26:30 performance.
Overall, the Bulls placed their scorers within 56 seconds of one
another, and that is an improvement. According to coach Walter Gantz,
“Success depends on a team’s ability to get its runners inqUiokly, and
close to one another. Although we lost, I am still pleased with the
performance of the team.”

Adverse effect
.tr'r
This meet closed out the Bulls’ dual meet schedule and left the
harriers with a 4-9 mark. Several factors adversely affected the Bulls’
performance this year. The team is young, with two or threie freshman
in the five top scorers for most meets. The team was also plagued by
injuries and illness, most notably to/vcterans John Ryerson and Tom
Pitchford. Abo, several meets were decided by a few pdthtsC The team
hopes that the 4-9 record will be improved next year, as the team WTO
have more experience.
On Saturday, the Bulb ran in Delaware Park at the Ganisius
Invitational. In the junior varsity race, the Bulls were led by Gene
Schwall (24:30), Tom Pitchford (25:17), Paul Allaire (23:27), Joe
O’Connell (26:33) and John Ward (27:35). They were quickly
followed by Rbb Schaefer (27:43) and Glen Heany (28:03j). The Bulb
fared well in this race, but wxj£ overshadowed by an amazing show of
depth by Allegheny
College, which captured the team

Niagara could muster and it
became increasingly difficult for

Niagara to advance the ball past
their own 2S-yard line. The Bulls
then gained possession of the ball
and initiated a drive which was to
last up to the second half.
It seemed there was little the
defending Niagara side could do
to thwart the UB attack. Several
times the Bulls marched to within
five yards of scoring but were
pushed back by a desperation
goal-line stance. Buffalo’s efforts
finally paid off when fly-half
Brian Frazier passed the ball out
to forward Bernie Schmieder, who
ran in for UB’s first try of the
day. The conversion kick was
missed and UB went ahead 4-0 at

the half.

In the varsity division, Allegheny scored a perfect 15 points, and
UB had to settle for seventh place. They were led by Fischer, who
toured the 4.6 mile course in 23:16. .Goldstein was next in for the
Bulls, as he displayed a devastating kick to place him at 23:49. Ryerson
(24:01), Barry Schindler (24:10) and Markut (24:27) closed out the
scoring. Greg Freitag (24:29) and Sheehan (24:34) were the sixth and
seventh men.
The Bulls have two more meets this season, and both are
championship races. November 5th is the New York State
Championship meet in Rochester, where the Bulls will be shooting for
a solid team performance. The final meet will be the IC4A meet in New
York City on November 12.

&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;

Campus reaction to

fraternity comeback
by Neil E. Seiden
Spectrum Staff Writer

The Greek System is not a new birth control method marketed by
Trojan, but rather a system or organizations (fraternities and sororities)
which has its origin in the spirit of ancient Greece. The Greeks are
currently reappearing on this University’s campuses.
Recognition of the Greek organizations here ended in 1971 as a
result of a ban decreed by the SUNY Board of Trustees, and later
enforced by University officials. However, late last year the ban was
lifted, like football, the Greeks are returning.
The essential elements involved in a successful return of the Greeks
are twofold. First, the student body must understand, and want them,
and second, the University administration must aprove of each
fraternity and sorority as they seek access on campus. Fvidence of
interest and enthusiasm in Greeks was displayed when, by invitation,
some 26 fraternities and sororities came on campus September 9, and
spent the entire day discussing their return.
According to Assistant to the Vice President for Student Affairs,
Khairy Kawi, who is charged with the task of coordinating and
representing this Uninversity’s efforts, the conference was broken into
two segments: the first part served as an information session, during
components of the University spoke to the
which
various
representatives and described what type of services are available to
them (i.e., food service, housing); the second session consisted of the
representative meeting with University officials where it was explained
what the University could expect of frats, how they will be reviewed
for approval, and what goals, purposes, and objectives the University

Pledging is the process by which one becomes a member of a
fraternity or sorority. Pledging methods of old have been sharply
criticized due to the physical nature of some of the requirements.

At a recent alumni meeting of Tau Kappa Ppsilon, Kawi reviewed
the University criteria that must be met by Greek groups seeking
approval. Kawi said there is evidence of a social void on campus which
could possibly be filled by the Greeks, but added that should not be
their only function. In addition, he said the Greek groups should
pursue an educational and civic mission as well, By achieving this, Kawi
explained, the University feels that people become part of a tight knit
group and tend to help each other. To this end, Kawi said, he felt each
member would benefit academically. With respect to the civic duties,
Kawi felt the groups should attempt to act responsibly because these
type of projects get good press for the group and indirectly for the
University and its community image.

the Greeks can bring to campus. He mentioned the “quality of life,”

improve. Contrary to expectations, Ketter remained for approximately
an hour and a half after delivering his remarks, taking an active role in

Among the topics discussed was the need for education of the
University body concerning Greek rejuvination. One example of this

A boycott against J.1’ Stevens &amp; Co.. Inc., the
nation's second largest textile thin, has begun in
almost all the major U.S. cities, in which Buffalo is

urged students at this University to help with the
Buffalo boycott of J.P. Stevens' products.
Stevens' conduct has won it a reputation as the

�Promoting equality

OUW aids SUN Y women
by Karen Major
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The
For
Organization
University Women (OUW). Have
vou heard of it?
Two years ago, the Faculty
Women’s Organization merged
with the Caucus for Women’s
Rights at the State University of
New York (SUNY). OUW now has
chapters at most SUNY schools.
The
Buffalo
membership
includes about three hundred
women. “We're made up of
faculty, professional staff, and
civil service workers,” said Ellen
McNamara. “We’re also open to
students, but right now, there arc
none involved.”
Currently, the organization is
involved in Title 9, a part of the
civil rights act “which basically
states that there shall be no
discrimination on the basis of sex
in the educational system,"
explained McNamara. “Whether
or not there is discrimination at
this University depends on which
way you look at it." she felt.
Lisa Snowden. Vice President
of OUW. believes there is
discrimination here. “There are no
women in upper management
levels, except in the fields that

were traditionally tor women."
she said. “The Nursing program
has a female dean, hut there are
no females in high positions in
fields such as Engineering or
Medicine."

added McNamara
The
of
the
purpose
organization is to represent all
women, provide a vehicle for
different issues and promote the
equality of women, according to
Snowden.
OUW also provides other
services. If someone has a specific
issue they would like discussed,
they can contact the group to
sponsor a forum. The organization
has already sponsored programs
on
the metric system and
retirement and held a workshop
on preparing for job interviews.
"We try to have other University
people who arc experts in their
fields speak at each program."
explained McNamara.

“Also, it seemed that when
acting positions opened in the
academic level, the jobs were
offered to men," continued
Snowden. This summer, when the
group met with President Ketter,
they found that a woman was
asked to lake over a top position
but declined. The next person in
line for that job was a man, Ketter
at the lime.

Complying with Title 9
The women also discussed Title
with Kctter. “One of his
responses was to allow us to have
access to the Vice President's
Reports,”
Annual
explained
McNamara. “Keller also requested
that
each
vice
department
president report on what had been
done to comply with Title 9."
OUW will begin reviewing these
reports

�Prudential building kept
alive by Buffalo community
by Bobbie Denne
Staff Writer

Spectrum

Through the preservation efforts of State
Assemblyman William B. Hoyt, numerous other
public officials and concerned citizens, famous
architect Louis Sullivan’s Prudential Building will
probably admit state tennants and attract bank
capital necessary for the structure's renovation.
Although the renovation movement originated
in early 1975 when the Prudential Building was
expected to go on the auction block in a foreclosure
sale, it was not until this year that a coalition led by
Assemblyman Hoyt and Buffalo Mayor Stanley M.
Makowski produced favorable results.
Letters from Hoyt to New York Governor Hugh
Carey cleared up an earlier misunderstanding and left
Hoyt confident of Carey’s attention and support. It
seems that previously the Governor was operating
under the assumption that the state was being asked
to finance the renovation project itself. Hoyt is
actually seeking “secure state tenancy of up to
30,000 square feet of office space to attract the
necessary investment capital to make further
improvements and to restore the building."

Reach for the sky
However, this is only the first step in the right
direction. Further funding for renovation of one of
the world’s first skyscrapers and a masterwork of
American
architect
Louis Sullivan
would be
collected from various other sources including the
U S. Department of the Interior, National HistoricBuilding grants, and Common Development grants.
But the bulk of funds would necessarily come from
bank loans which in turn require financial security.
Carey is ncbt the only official that Hoyt has
appealed to in his drive to save the Prudential
Building. On being invited to visit Buffalo and tour

the building, Senator Daniel Moynihan’s interest was
aroused. Architecturally in the know, Moymhan has
not only promised to move his own district office
into the Prudential Building, but had personally
urged Vice President Mondale to pledge his support
to the project as he did yesterday in his visit to
Buffalo.

More help
Last
Wednesday,
Fgan,
Deputy
John
Commissioner of the State Office of General Services
(OGS), joined the list of national figures to visit the
city with special regard to the plight of the
Prudential Building. While here, Lgan was quoted as
saying that “the state would play its part.” When
questioned further, he clarified that remark. “My
personal presence in Buffalo indicates the governor’s
interest in the building. The state’s part would be the
rental of the building to house state agencies. And
although the matter is still under review, I’m very

optimistic.”

If an affirmative decision to occupy the
Prudential Building is made as expected this week,
the fate of one of Buffalo’s many fine architectural
structures will be a happy one. The precedent set
may portend the same good fortune for other
famous buildings in Buffalo facing a similar fate.
Among other threatened landmarks, the Buffalo
Post Office and the Darwm-Martin Complex are
currently existing in a limbo of uncertainty. This
University is playing its own part in the sage. The
school is the present owner of the larger Martin
house, designed by f rank Lloyd Wright. According
to I da Louise lluxtable, a writer for the New York
Times, SUNY at Buffalo is ambivalent to its position
regarding
this
historic
earlier
“An
building.
(SUNYAB) president lived there and cherished it.
the current president will have nothing to do with

SA and administration

battle over ‘R’ deadline
by Joel Meyersohn
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The Student Association (SA) is urging the Administration to
re-evaluate its decision to allow students four weeks less time to
officially drop

courses.

Last summer’s mandate, changing the date to withdraw from
courses without academic penalty from ten weeks after the beginning
of the semester to six weeks, was apparently reached without any
student input.
“Students were forced into accepting this new policy despite the
fact that we thought it was ridiculous,” said SA Lxecutive Vice
President, Andy Lalonde. An R grade (officially withdrew) was given
to students who dropped courses up to October 14 this semester. Atier
that date, students must either continue in unwanted courses or risk a
falling grade. SA Director of Academic Affairs, Bob Sinkewicz, is now
in the process of composing a letter which will be sent to the (-'acuity
Senate, concerning the R date.
Sinkewicz, however, is not optimistic about changes in the
University policy. He said, “This letter presents no guarantee of success
and the taks will not be easy.” Whether or not action will be taken on
and the task will not be easy.” Whether or not action will be taken on
The Senate, in its study, cited three reasons for the policy change
last spring: Academic Planning, General Planning, and the idea that an
“R” gives a negative appearance on a student’s record when applying
for graduate school.

Faculty-Senate confusion
Sinkewicz feels, “The Faculty Senate has gotten the wrong
impression of the student’s use of the R That is why we are attempting

said that the office of the Vice President (or Academic Alfairs has
apparently become a “rubber stamp" for the Senate, in the past few
months. “The only way to prevent this problem is to make sure that
students are informed early in the decision-making process of key
itmes,” said Lalonde.

Assistant to the President, Ron Stein, did not feel the Senate was
operating without adequate overview “No one is unaccountable,"
Stein said, “by law of nature of reality.”

Bruce Beyer has just completed a seven and a half year

Committee.

In our view, a state of disorder has characterized
the administration of TA/GAs at this University. In
particular, we refer to the almost total lack of

departmental policies concerning appointments,
funding, work assignments, class size, renewals, etc.;
non-compliance of departments with the existing
University-wide policies; and, the absence of any

mechanism to alter
Consequently, we viewed the formation of the
TA/GA Advisory Committee, though a much belated
move, as the first step in the process of beginning to
deal with the problems affecting TA/GAs. And since
any real solution to TA/GA problems, in our view, is
not possible without far reaching changes within the
University, we chose to limit ourselves to creating
the necessary conditions for such changes.
The perspective of GSA becomes evident if the
proposals we placed before the committee are
examined. We sought the creation of the concept of
a minimum assistantship level necessary to live and
to pursue with full vigor one’s own academic
program; but the minimum level of $3200 that we
recommended is obviously far less than what one
would need for acceptable living standards. We
sought the formulation of defined departmental
policies; but these were required of the departments
by the Graduate School, even as early as in 1 973. We
sought a formal role for graduate students in the
and

processes; which any department or university that
holds even a semblance of regard for students as an
important entity within it would have instituted.

recommendations, it becomes important that all
conclusions of the TA/GA Advisory Committee be
accepted by the University administration, and steps
be taken to implement the same beginning Spring
1978. In order to facilitate this we ask that the
University-wide Standing Advisory Committee be
constituted immediately.
Concerning this Standing Committee, I would
like to make two points: one, on the nature and

If you so decide that his case is within your jurisdiction,
please set Bruce free. Your action would enable him to
pursue a life interrupted nine years ago and would perhaps
set a precedent for other men facing resistance related
charges who turn themselves in in the future.
Thank you very much.

administration.
A crucial issue that has surfaced up in the
process of functioning of our committee is that ot
the academic plan of the University. You are very
well aware of the problems that existed within the
Advisory Committee on the question of allocation
and reallocation of resources
in this case, the
TA/GA lines, to various academic units. Obviously
TA/GA allocations and reallocations cannot be
inconsistent with the overall resource allocation
based on the academic plan of the University, So,
what is clearly recognized by all is the need lor an
academic plan of the University, which only can
adequately deal with the issue at hand. But the
questions are, what is the University’s academic plan
if there exists one, now. Or, whose academic plan
will it be, if one is going to be formulated in the
future? And what is the role of students and faculty
in the creation of any such academic plan? The
report of the President’s Committee on Academic
Planning (better known as llull-Yearley Report I
triggered off a vast amount of varied responses What
have been the resultant conclusions? I think it is
necessary that these issues are clarified and an
acceptable academic plan for the University be
publicly adopted at the earliest.

undoubtably most of the crowd gathered there that night, to
write letters to Federal District Court Judge John Curtin and
to send them through the Bruce Beyer Defense Committee

Bruce's lawyer, former attorney general Ramsey Clark,
learned just Saturday that the hearing before Curtin to

�A day without smoke
To ///&lt;■ Editor

This letter is to praise the editorial staff of The
Speetrum for the fine job it is doing this year. For
the first time in four years at this University, The
Speetrum is functioning as a relevant political voice
here. Yet one problem persists. To do such a good
job. the editors must forego all marijuana smoking
during the day to meet their deadlines. Which brings
me to another problem; the apparant lack of good

places to smoke pot on the new Amherst Campus.
Now is the time to plan good locations to get high
during the day! Perhaps if everyone were high there
would be no hassles on campus, it is obvious they
planned the Amherst Campus to eliminate pot
smoking. This conspiracy is more than the pot
smokers of SUNYAB will stand for. Bony shelters

Guest Opinion

Si'll wall

//

The Guest Opinion that appeared in the Wednesday. Oet. 5 issue
of The S/H-ctrum presented an argument of a particularly repugnant
variety. It concerns the Committee to Reverse the Bakke Decision, and
their method of argumentation. They invoke the warcry of racism and
use emotionalist tactics to support their stands.
By emotionalist tactics I mean a strategy that preys on the hatreds
and fears of the reader, rather than discussing the facts in a reasonable
manner. For instance. The Committee opens its argument with "The
racist mentality . . ." and proceeds to draw a faulty analogs between
the case at hand and the American Na/i Parly and the Klit klux klan.
Is it possible that the issue concerns itself not with racism, but with the
belief that an individual is evaluated according to personal merit? Or
can’t the Committee resist an opportunity It) distort the facts and
assume that if you support Bakke you are attending the next
cross-burning ceremony? The if-you-donT-agree-wiih-me-you're-a-racist
ideology is an extremely fallacious attempt at justifying oneself.
The Committee's position about the revision of our educational
system was absolutely correct
true equality can exist only when we
all get the same start. But even if Inequality rears its ugly head today, is
it really in the interest of Fqualily to accept a black person ahead of a
white person just by virtue of his color'.’ I ven if they both come from
the same school anti neighborhood? Vour primitive eye-for-an-eye
philosophy of egalitarianism seems quite inconsistent.
The Committee's contention that quotas arc "necessary devices
"necessary devices?"! I
that we must defend" left me fuming.
question your concept of necessity. Wouldn't it be a far more
worthwhile investment of your lime if you promoted application of
minority students to professional schools'’ Perhaps there has developed
in minority groups a defeatist attitude, spurred on by bellyaching
pseudo-liberals who dwell on the difficulties themselves, and not on
rational ways to overcome those difficulties. In other words, it you
drum the existence of inequalities into the ears of a minority group,
they feel that further education Ls futile, and never bother applying to
medical or law schools. If the Committee were to embark on a
full-scale program that encouraged minority students to apply to
professional schools, a larger pool of minority applicants would be
available, and the number of i/ualitieJ minority applicants would be
greater. No one can complain if a qualified minority student is
accepted in med school; the problem arises when a group of applicants
is small, and admissions committees must choose people from that
small group even if they aren't all qualified. So why doesn't the
Committee get off its soapbox and start doing something meaningful
for the community as a whole, and not just a particular segment ol it?
Another constructive tactic would he to lobby or in some w.iy
(say, through publicity) put pressure on professional schools to
increase the number of places available in their classes. I hose additional

In response to Mr Lessoff's letter concerning
The Spectrum s “reporting or lack of it,” I suggest
that he make an earnest attempt at editorializing, if
he finds it necessary to criticize the nature of the
paper s reporting.
/
1 have read several of Mr. Lessolt's letters to the
editor in past issues of The Spectrum, and I am
particularly amused at his peculiar fetish tor
demeaning everything and anything tie can put his
egotistical mind to. I am further dismayed at his

Truth about IRCB

To the Editor.

To Ike Editor:

Thin it in response to The Spectrum editorial
"Mtsghringt About IRC.** To clarify an important
point, the Inter-Residence Council Businesses
(IRCB) is responsible for refrigerator rentals and
travel service. The Inter-Residence Council (IRC) has
nothing to do with these services.
The Spectrum it correct in assuming “that
uncertainty over privately owned refrigerators in
dorms might induce some residents to rent from
yet.” (IRCB). Many students did not want to put in
(he time and money to fix their refrigerator so it
could pass inspection. Subsequently, many of these
students decided to rent a refrigerator from IRCB.
The IRCB refrigerator program (“official”
refrigerators according to The Spectrum ) has grown
from 100 units to over 7S0 units. This increase is not
due to a refrigerator inspection program! IRCB has
met the needs of the residents population with larger
refrigerators at reasonable prices.
The refrigerator inspection program was
designed to insure the health and safety of all dorm
residents. The program was in conjunction with IRC,
IRCB. SA. FSA and Custodial Services. Do you see a
conflict of interest with all of these organizations?
The Spectrum wished to know if IRC’s(actually
IRCB) reaction was on time regarding flights. The
answer to this is yes!
IRCB books alf of its group ten flights five
months in advance of the holiday period. IRCB
requested over 500 seats for the Thanksgiving
Holiday in May. The Airlines (American and
Alleghany) granted IRCB 330 seats, which is a
substantial reduction. IRCB tried to gain access to
more seats, but to no avail The airlines know they
arc gaing to be booked to capacity during the
Thanksgiving Holiday and would rather have
passengers pay full price instead of the discounted
group ten fare.
IRCB realized that there would be a problem
and instituted a discounted round trip bus service to
the New York City area. IRCB policy is that no
student should be stranded in Buffalo due to IRCB
error. IRCB will run half empty bases if needed
because we are a service to the students.
IRCB has grown to a half million dollar
corporation in a matter of years. If IRCB was not
responsive
to students needs in serving our
population with high standards and low prices, we
would have never readied that plateau.
I would like to request that The Spectrum call
IRCB to get the facts and alternatives before printing
their opinions. The Spectrum does carry a lot of
weight and misleading editorials can induce negative
connotations about IRCB.

Hoist a round to Bob
To the Editor:
Did you ever wake up in the morning, a grin
spread across your face, with that suspicious gleam
in your eyes, chock full of energy and more than just
passingly curious about your fine, oh so fine mood
(like maybe perhaps, just perhaps, that wasn’t all
fantasy the nite before)? I mean did you ever or is
this simply a novelty. Well such was me upon my
waking moments this Monday past and maybe in
that good American tradition, I should have been
somewhat skeptical if not downright paranoid. But
really, I was cooking
I mean my shoes were soft,
so soft 1 could feel the vague rumblings of a Fred
Astaire number coming up as I passed the brown and
grey grudgingly opening to the prying, childish
maliciousness of that early morning sun as it spilled
itself like a gassolous lush at a Sunday dinner. This
was a Monday unlike any other Monday; after all
how often does one get the opportunity to dance
cheek to cheek with Ginger Rogers while making
one’s way through the abyss. Not very often that’s
how often. As I said, should have, because the catch
became apparent as soon as Monday's The Spectrum
was cracked
the catch, the godawful catch on
pages six and seven. The incipient butts.
Since when has good ole Bob taken to pen
names to further his somewhat less than honorable
cause. Racoon coats and spats, and perhaps a snoof
from a well stocked flagon hidden beneath the layers
of striped wool. Hoist ground or two, boys, to a very
fine lad just one of the boys here. That’s right, just
me there boys, just good ole Bob here to spend a
why that’s just down
little time with ma friends
right neighborly of the chap. Who was that that said
all those terrible nasties, good ole Bob, yeah, he’ll be
remembered simply as a friend of mine. Yeah, let’s
hoist another round to good ole Bob.

Who would have suspected that any remote
semblance to culture was possible in the land of
Amherst, outside of the theaters purportedly located
in that plush concentration camp, better known as
the bllicott Complex? Certainly not Jay Rosen, the
unfortunate exile on Main Street. Probably not the
one hundred or so students grovelling about in the
pits (that's the cafeteria) of the concrete castle
known as Norton (Capen-Talbert) Hall. Yet barbaric
as the setting may be someone saw fit to impose
education in the simple form of entertainment.
(Slowly but surely we will advance our minds.) Yes.
I was there last Friday when the UUAB Cultural
Committee presented some dance and classical
guitar. I don’t remember the names, but it was good.
They'll be back with something different every
Friday at eleven-thirty. If you're there some Friday

maybe you could descend those stairs at Norton
instead of hustling to get back to civilization in
Buffalo. Just a suggestion.
I enjoy the variety and the best of two worlds. I
like it at Amherst. I am a freshman and have classes
at both campi. (IMural of campus.) When I walk
through Squire Hall I don't have ah awareness of
everything that has gone before me but I am willing
to give what is yet to come a chance. The University
doesn't owe me anything tyet). Rahter. I owe “it”
and myself an open mind, a willingness to experience
all it offers. It's only fair. / chose this University, not
to get away from home, not to get a valid ID card
and not to gel lost in the crowd. I came to learn and
I'm glad to say I am learning. I care about what
happens here and I wish that the Amherst Campus
wasn't painted as a last resort. We, the students, can
make it work. We have to make it work.

Truth about America

To the Editor

Mr. Aaron Fishbein (The Spectrum October 26)
that America is struggling for world
following facts suggest the opposite:
The
freedom.
1. U.S. helped the Shah of Iran to the throne
and is apparently overlooking the Shah's tyrannical
methods, such as the torture of political prisoners.
2. The CIA's track record in Latin America.
C.reece, Turkey and Cyprus has been totally opposed
to the freedom of the people of these areas. 3.
American oil companies cooperate with reactionary
middle-eastern rulers. This combination gets richer at
the expense of all the world, but the Arab people as
a whole end up being called pirates.
4. U.S. corporations benefit out of the apartheid
in Southern Africa and continue to help suppress
non-whites, while the fallacious Anglo-American
peace-plan is overly concerned about the welfare ol
the "displaced whites."

tremendous powers, the U.S. has

not made a constructive move towards helping the

Age

of paranoia

To the Editor.

I am so mad, I can hardly see. This is in
reference to the Guest Opinion by the Committee to
Reverse the Bakke Decision. Somehow, I suspect the
Committee is a group of neo-fascist left-wing
reactionaries whose only aim is to get things their
way so they can gain control of the country and
wipe out the bourgois capitalist pig dogs who breed
discrimination (and supply money to The Spectrum
so they can afford to print such inane garbage as that
Guest Opinion). How can a group that states its
purpose in preventing discrimination and repression
of rights be up in arms about an Illinois court
allowing the American Nazi Party to march through
Skokie, 111 ?
Isn’t the right of peaceful demonstration
guaranteed in the Bill of Rights? And why is it so
bad for.the Ku Klux Klan to organize? Granted,
harassment of non-whites by these groups is wrong,
but they can print or say anything they damn well
please and it’s okay with me because it is their right
as Americans. They may be ignorant fools, but its
their right. And 1 hardly think that stopping
federally funded “optional” (they left out that key
word) abortions is sexist. Does it make me a male
chauvanist to refuse to finance something for
someone that isn’t necessary? Actually we men
should be angry. We can’t have abortions, get
pregnant or make the centerfold of Hustler. Maybe I
should take God to the Supreme Court. I’ve been
discriminated against!
I guess I’m being silly, but it is to illustrate a
point. Whereas the sixties were termed the “age of
enlightenment,” the seventies should be called the
“age of paranoia.” It seems everytime a decision is

laid down, no matter how fair, if someone feels
cheated, they cry “racist” or “fascist.” (Looking
back upon the beginning of this letter, 1 guess I, too,
am guilty of such rhetoric.) As a specific example, I
refer to an article in Time magazine entitled,
“Goodbye to the Rubber Diploma” (September 27,
1977). It refers to the Greenville County, Va. school
system and its new policy of only passing students
who can pass standardized tests.
The NAACP has claimed that this new policy is
used to segregate the classrooms since the majority
of the students held back were black (students held
back receive remedial help in classes of their own). I
find this argument rather weak. I’ll bet my life that
blacks can, and do, take the same courses as whites.
If the blacks can be held back so easily, this implies
two things to me: 1) whites must be smarter than
blacks, or 2) blacks aren’t trying hard enough.
Somehow I doubt the first is true, and as for the
second, if they aren’t trying, they deserve to be held
back, forever, if necessary. Affirmative Action
should be used to give everyone an even break, not
to put the minorities at the finish line at the start of
the race. The Constitution guarantees us equal
protection under the law. QUOTAS ARE NOT
EQUAL PROTECTION UNDER THE LAW,
Refusing to let the KKK organize is not EQUAL
PROTECTION UNDER THE LAW. When are we
going to learn to live by the rules we hold so sacred?
The saddest part about our society is that laws must
be written to make people be fair to one another.
Why can’t we learn to live together without them?
Laws erode the freedom you and I hold so dear.
Remember, 1984 is less than seven years away.

The Celtic Festival of Samhain

more than 2.000 years ago in

Great Britain,
Ireland, and Northern France.

I A festival that began the
evening
honored
previous
Samhain. the Celtic lord of death.
On this day, Samhain called
together the souls of the wicked
who had died during the past year
and allowed them to roam the
earth. The date was connected
with the return of herds from
pasture and laws and land tenures
were renewed.
Halloween was
thought to be the most favorable
time for devinations concerning
marriage, luck, health, and death
It was the only day on which the
help of the devil was invoked for
such purposes.
On the evening of the festival,
the Druids, who were the priests
and teachers of the C elts, ordered
the people to put out their hearth
fires. The Druids built a huge new

Shakespeare’s wonderful creation - the bearded Beulahs who uttered
the famous line, “Double, bubble, toil and trouble”? Who are they Why, witches, of course.
There’s no such thing, you say? Try telling that to the authors of
such books as Everyday Witchcraft, Charms, Spells, and Curses.
Helping Yourself with White Witchcraft, and Magick in Theory and

witchcraft supplies. The fact is. witchcraft is alive and growing in
Europe as well as in the United States. Even more startling, witchcraft
is growing as a religion.

Eye of new
Though witchcraft was around before Christianity, the movement
gained popularity in this country along with hippies, drug cults, flower
children, and satanism, which is fundamentally different from
witchcraft, in the 1960’s. Young people saw witchcraft as something
new, yet basic and very definitely anti-establishment.
So, what is witchcraft? To some, it’s a handy combination of
herbal knowledge and incantations, used to quiet a gossipy neighbor or
gel nd of a cold. For others, it’s a way of plugging into the universe
and understanding the nature of things. Contrary to popular belief, you
don’t have to be born a witch or female to really be one The term
“witch” applies to both men and women practitioners

Some people, of course, don’t even acknowledge its existence. Witches
say it works, when done properly. Others say it’s nonsense. Those who
say it does work sometimes aren’t sure whs Not many believe they re
actually calling up demons, but some believe they’re focusing on some
kind of “force,” whether it’s from themselves or some external source.
Others say it’s psychology; if you cast a good luck spell, you're more
likely to notice the good things that happen to you. Maybe it’s all these
things, some people say it’s a fact that witchcraft has been around a
long tune, if it didn’t work, it wouldn't have lasted so long.

Spectrum Copy Editor

It’s hard to believe, but playing for this
University is the best player in the nation in a
particular sport.
Notice what I said there. The best. No
qualifying adjectives, like the best college player, or
as in the case of basketball center Sam Pellom, the
best rebounder. Simply the best.
Those of you who read The Spectrum from
cover to cover and remember everything already
know about whom I’m talking. And some of you
may already know for other reasons. But for the rest
the
of you, I’ll keep you in suspense no longer
sport is women’s bowling and the player is Cindy
-

Coburn.
Cobum led the nation with a 211 average last
year, topping over four million other bowlers. Four
million. That’s nothing to sneeze at. Her mother,
Doris, is already in the Bowling Hall of Fame, and
her sister, Kathy, is a bowler of some note.
Remain at victory stand
Cindy spurned a scholarship from Indiana
University to come here, and she has already made
her presence felt, by helping UB deominate a
tournament last weekend in West Virginia. In fact,
Cindy was so strong at West Virginia that she was
asked to remain at the victory stand, rather than
march up to receive each award.
The women’s athletic department recently has
been trying to upgrade their program, and Cindy’s
arrival could just push Buffalo bowlers into national
prominence. UB’s women’s bowlers have several
state championships to their credit in the last few
years. Now, they can realistically set their sights
higher, and 1 hope they can go all way. UB could use
a national championship.

Winter sports
Buffalo’s winter teams have begun practice, and
here are some capsule comments on some of them.
Hockey: Coach Ed Wright has several huge holes
to fill, including goaltender and the team’s top two
scorers, and he has a load of freshmen to fill those
spots. Wright hopes to use two freshmen lines this
year, and has been particularly impressed with the
line of right wing Pete Sawyer, left wing Donny
Osborn, and center Timmy Igo.

incidentally, former Buffalo goalie John Moore
out for the Chicago Black Hawks of the

tried

National Hockey League, but didn’t make it. He is
not even playing in the minors right now.
In basketball, coach Leo Richardson is almost
down to his final cut. Three starters return from last
year, and Richardson reports that he has several
promising newcomers. Gone from last year’s team
are guards Dana Mitchell and Donald Scott, both of
whom left school.
Richardson also reports that assistant coach
Kenny Pope has returned for another year, and that
he has three new student assistants to help him:
George Cooper, Verncll Washington, and Bobby
Pellman.
Two teams, Holy Cross and Fairleigh Dickinson,
have dropped UB from their schedule this year. Both
moves were related to the fact th»t UB is now
Division III. That leaves Buffalo with only 23 games
on their schedule, while most teams play 26 or more
games per year.

Heavy wrestling
Wrestling coach Ed Michael has a new
heavyweight this year. He is Paul Curka, a 6-1, 270
pound transfer. Curkas was a two time third-place
finisher
the
New

Jersey
high
school
championships, and competed in the junior Pan
American championships.
Other promising
newcomers include Tom
Jacoutot. whose brothers wrestled for UB, and Dave
Tundo, whose brother Gene also wrestles for UB.
The annual Alumni-Varsity wrestling match has been

canceled.

The field hockey team finished their season with
1-0 victory over Buffalo State and a 6-0 loss to
Syracuse. Buffalo’s only goal in the Buffalo State
game was tallied by Sophomore Lynn Walker who
was also the team’s leading scorer.
a

Although the team finished only 2-7-1, coach
Betty Dimmick feels that the attitude on the team
has greatly improved from last year, when Buffalo
only had a part-time coach.

Dimmick noted that only three team members
are graduating, and that she will try to send the team
to field hockey camp this summer, so that next
year’s team should be in much better shape.
I agree to a certain extent with several letters in
The Spectrum that professional sports do not belong
in a college newspaper. I think that the story on Lou
Piccone in Friday's issue didn’t belong, and I also
think that the Wizard of Odds is a waste of space the
way it is presently being written.

&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;

Reverting to three-credit
courses still a possibility
by Danny Parker
Campus Editor

A Faculty Senate Committee
on Curricular Structure report
outlining the future of the four
Course load at this University
recommends that “no particular
number of courses per semester be
designated as a desired norm” and
that “the University reaffirm the
three credit/three contact hour
course as the standard module for
instruction in the lecture or
seminar mode.”
The four course load dilemma
deals with the number of contact
hours in the classroom and the
respective number of credits
awarded in the course. The
Report centers on curricular
structure, program review and
administrative implications.
The Committee is not trying to
seek a “four course load or a five
course load,” said chairman of the
Comjnittee
Robert
Springer,
to
the Report, “In a
According

or

laboratory-type work,
the number of courses per
semester could easily vary from
three to six."
The Report stated, “There
does not appear to be a general
improvement in education here
since
the
1969-70 change
(changing the course load from

five to. four). Although the
Committee feels the University’s
curricular structure should not be
based on a designated number of
courses per student per semester,
some basic cornerstone does seem
desirable.” The three credit/three
contact hour module is the
cornerstone that Committee felt
was necessary.
Doubts more work
The Committee felt that three
crcdit/three contact hour course
“has proven to be an effective
module of instruction” and
“doubts that there is a full
one-third more content in a four
credit/four contact hour course.”
the
Springer
emphasized
“the
recommendation
that
Committee recognizes that the
three for three unit is not
necessarily the most effective in
every circumstance and that
departures from it should be
undertaken for specific purposes.”
Specifically, “The Committee
recommends that the University
undertake a systematic review of
the curricular structure of all
undergraduate degrees granting
units and programs. This review
should focus on departures from
the basic module of a three credit
hour/three contact hour course.”

felt that “in many cases this
requirement has been met by the
addition of extra sssignments to
existing courses which it feels may
be inadequate in some cases as a
permanent solution. Therefore,
the Committee recommended that
“unless the additional work cited

results from the basic purpose and

bodies should insist on a literal
equivalence of credit hours and

hours.”

Carefully documented
Associate Vice President for
Academic Affairs Dr. Claude
Welch termed the Report as
documented and
“carefully
important in its emphasis of
increasing the breadth of an
education.” Welch stated, “The
changeover in 1969 was primarily
a cosmetic one and this report
reaffirms the Carnegie Unit.”
Implications of this report are

and Springer agreed that if credit

courses must be offered, then
class size may rise as much as 25
percent in the affected area.

Chinese Student Association charges KMT spying
by Harvey Shapiro
Spectrum Staff Writer

F.dito-’s note: This is the first in a series of articles dealing
with alleged spying by agents of the government of Taiwan
on Chinese Students at this University.

“Agents” of the Republic of China’s (ROC) ruling
party, the Kuomintang (KMT), observe and file reports on
Taiwanese students at this University who come in contact
with “Communist literature,” Chinese students have
claimed in interviews in recent weeks.
Mong-Heng Tan and Peter Yuen, members of the
Chinese Student Association (CSA), have named Shang-Hsi
(Dick) Yeh, a graduate student in the Electrical
Engineering Department, as a leader of the KMT faction
on this campus. Yeh has vehemently denied the charge,
claiming, “I am a KMT supporter, but 1 am not actively
involved in the party.”
Anonymity requested
Since Tan is from Hong Kong, and cannot be touched
by the KMT, he has talked freely, accusing Yeh of
conducting surveillance of Taiwanese students here.
However, some students from Taiwan have refused to
comment on any political matter, because they fear
reprisals. All Taiwanese students who agreed to be
interviewed did so only after a guarantee of anonymity.
Taiwan, or the Republic of China, is a small island off
mainland China. Since the Communist takeover of the
mainland in 1949, the island has been home for those who
oppose the mainland regime.
The ROC government still claims that a state of siege
still exists with the mainland. According to Amnesty
International, the government believes itself the true
government of mainland China, and is very fearful of a
Communist takeover of Taiwan. Thus, Taiwan does not
realistically portray the mainland government and tries to
keep all Taiwanese away from Communist literature.

A student here who is a KMT sympathizer, stated that
surveillance has occurred in the Chinese Student
Association (CSA) office. According to this student, “they
watch you to see if you will pick up and read any of the
pro-Communist literature that is around. If you do they
will write down your name.”
Several sources have pointed the finger at Dick Yeh.
They claim that Yeh sat in the CSA office to watch who
reads pro-Communist literature. Yeh, however, denies this.
‘There are certain people,” he said, “who are spreading
rumors about the Taiwanese government and myself.
These students are out to make trouble. They are
spreading rumors about me because I oppose their political
position.” Yeh declined to mention the people by name
but did say they were from Hong Kong.
Yuen and Tan are members of the Graduate Student
Association, an organization whose recent leaders have
been increasingly radical. The two lean politically toward
Communism.

Reports allegedly filed

According to Yuen, an agent/student writes down the
a student who reads Communist literature, “a
report is made on that student and sent to the ROC
consulate in New York City.” Yuen added that this report

name of

includes “who is the President of the local CSA, the

political leanings of both the CSA and the student on
whom the report is based, the student’s contact with the

‘Bandits’ (Communists) and their propaganda, and other
questions on thp-extra-curricular activities of the student.”
The Vice-Counsel of the ROC Consulate in New York,
denied these assertions. “No such
George Chen,
he said. “If students belong to the
surveillance
KMT and they have trouble, they can come to us, but no
such agent network exists.”
At one point Chen interrupted the interview and
declined to answer more questions. He referred further
questions to the Consul-General, Kung-Chuan Hsia. After

repeated attempts,

Documentation of reports
Several sources aid that once a report is made “the
government can make it difficult for you if you decide to
return to Taiwan.” The student said that if people apply
for government jobs, their political backgrounds are
checked. “If a report has been made on them,” the student
continued, “they will not get that job.”
Yuen claimed that more can, and has, been done to
students. “If you continually associate with alleged
Communist propaganda and you return to Taiwan, you
can be arrested and jailed.” Several Taiwanese students,
both KMT and non-KMT, have denied that the ROC
Nationalist government jails alleged Communists.
However, the New York Times has documented the
case of Ch’en Yu-Hui, who supports Yuen’s accusation.
Hui, a former student at the University of Hawaii, was
found in Japan by KMT agents and brought back to
Taiwan. He was tried and sentenced to seven years in
prison. The Times reported that he was arrested for
reading mainland Chinese publications while at the
University of Hawaii.
Communist literature available
While other campuses have reported widespread
surveillance, the situation here as been relatively quiet.
Aside from the alleged observation in the CSA office, not
much else has occurred. One student said that the passive
nature of the Taiwanese students here accounts for the
quiet atmosphere.
Despite the relative political inactivity of students
here, the presence of Chinese students may lead to KMT

surveillance. “Since America is freer. Communist literature
is available. Thus, students from Taiwan come in contact
with favorable literature about Communist China, for the
first time.” Tan maintained that many deem surveillance
necessary
to prevent contact with pro-Communist
literature.

New Chancellor
of SUNY named

Clifton R. Wharton, currently the President of Mulng-m St.ue
University, was selected Wednesday the new Chancellor of the State
University of New York (SUNY). the nation's larges] iitmvnsm
system.
Wharton, 51, will become the first bkiek'to head the Sl'W
system, which enrolls 350,000 students on b4 different campuses
across the state.
Acting SUNY chancellor, James Kelley, was widely rumored to
be In line for the permanent post. However. Kelley suffered a heart
attack last month which may have dropped him from the list of
candidates. Wharton will replace Ernest Boyer, who resigned as
chief of SUNY after being tapped by President Jimmy Carter for
die position of U.S. Commissioner of Education.
Wharton has served as President of Michigan State since I ‘&gt;70,
A native of Boston, he entered Harvard University at the age of I
Wharton owns degrees from Harvard, Johns Hopkins and Chicago
University. His academic specialty is economics with emphasis on
agricultural development of third world nations.
The new Chancellor will face several immediate and crucial
concerns. After twenty years of meteoric growth, SUNY expansion
has slowed to a crawl. Enrollment projections have been slashed and
construction is virtually at a standstill, leaving many units across the
state inoompleted. SUNY at Buffalo’* Amherst Campus is furthest
from Completion, with $300 million in construction still needed to
make the system’s largest unit functional.
The budget crunch has forced the trimming of faculty payrolls,
and morale is rumored to be low at several campuses across the
state. Wharton will also have to negotiate with New York City on a
possible takeover of the City Unhrcnity of New York (CUNY) by
the state. New York City can no longer afford to maintain CUNY,
the nation’s second largest university system. SUNY officials have
attempted to cool talks on a state takeover.
SUNY Trustees approved a $775 million proposed budget for
next year and officials of the University are waiting with baited
breath as the request approaches review by budget officials in
Albany. It must also be approved by the State Legislature.
The SUNY Chancellor is paid $57,650 a year and enjoy* a state
home, a state car, and other expense allowances.

�Signature drive fails
to repedl health fee
Last week’s Student Association of the Staty University
(SASU) attempts to gather signatures on petitions to repeal the
controversial student health fee were unsuccessful, according to
Buffalo SASU representative Allen Ckfford. SASU succeeded in

accumulating only five hundred to six hundred signatures.
Clifford stated he felt many students were hesitant to sign
because Si^SU; failed to provide enough factual information to
substantiate their claims. Consequently, skeptical students turned
away unwilling to leave their signatures in support of an issue they
X
considered nebulous.
X
The health fee, which will amount to $17 a year for students at
this University, was established by the SUNY Board of
May ,in response to a $2.3 million cutback in SUNY revenues.
Although officially listed as a health fee, that money will be
contributed towards the SUNY general (und. Thus far, no
indications of plans fbr standardization and improvement of health
care have been devised, according to SASU delegate Clare Riorday.
In addition, SASU Vice President Arthur Hildaigo, who attended
the Health Service Fee Task Force claimed the Board of Trustees
felt students should be paying more fees for the services provided
them and arbitrarily chose to implement one for health services. “It
was just dreamt up out of a clear blue sky,” Clifford said.
Therefore SASU is planning a new drive for signatures
beginning on Monday in Squire and Capen Halls. “We will have
more information this week including, hopefully, minutes of the
legislative session during which the fee was implemented,” stated
Qifford. “We’re hoping for more support this time.” If the fee can
not be abolished by next semester, he added, SASU will attempt to
have the fee costs covered by student aid.

I wish to express my opinion that your article of
October 19 does a disservice to readers, who should
expect more from a City Editor than slleging
political “rhetoric” with his own hyperbole. The
fault, I think, is a nihilist attitude which makes no
effort to treat seriously an important dty election.
The article I mean was “Substantial Platforms

Lacking in Present Mayoral...” My objection

Everyone has his favorite way of politely
expressing disgust. My colleague John Reiss usually
says, “It’s not Tops.” Well, this column has not been
‘Tops” of late and I’ve been mulling over the
reasons why, running various reels through my mind
in alow motion, fooling around with the focus and.
looking to catch something in between the frames.
My dimattsfaction with this corner is either part
of or because of a larger ill feeling I’ve been wrestling
with concerning the paper as a whole, specifically
the issues we’ve put out the last couple of weeks.
Underneath the embarrassing mistakes, poorly
handled stories and the thinness of the list few
issues, runs a deeper current of my discontent with
the course this ship is sailing.
My complaints are teeming with contradictions.
The papers are going faster than Elvis Presley
albums, by most people’s observations. It’s hard to
get a copy of The Spectrum after noon. So it would
appear that the paper is more popular. While I do
oat attribute this to a slashing of the bathroom
tissue budget here, neither do I accept it as an
indication that we’re putting out superior

hc less than adequate. I feel extremely sorry for

You know, it’s true, what you’ve been bitching
about (privately or publicly). TheSpectrum has been
beating several almost dead horses. lt,’s Important to
understand that they seem, to us, to be important
bones, thoroughbreds if you wiB, and if we appear
insistent upon getting out last licks in, itb only
because we’re listening to the little voices in our
heads that claim to know what is vital reading to the
students of tins University.
These little voices have been ending their
relevatkms lately with, “This is a recording.” Therein
lies the problem. For we haven’t the insight to
change the tape or the initiative to stop tuning in.
So perhaps it’s time for a rewinding of our
thinking. This, however, is no push button task. You
see, we have virtually no concrete conceptions of
either the range or the depth of student interests, we
really don’t. All we have are these little voices
hinting at where student interests should he. So
we’re confronted with these two circles of thought.
One may be larger than the other, though we would
certainly not know which one. The circles may be
concentric, they may not intersect at ML They may
not even be round for all we know.
Yet every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, The
Spectrum is there, waiting for you to pick up and
read. Or not read.
Why are we so uninformed? Perhaps because
we’ve put no effort into accurately gauging your
interests. Or perhaps you've put no effort into
informing us. Or perhaps we realty are informed and
don’t know it. Or is it that student interests are so
varied and undefined that our guesses as reasonably
intelligeitrand experienced journalists are as accurate
gauge as any. So could it be that we are really not
uninformed but that there is nothing to be informed
about? Somehow, I don’t think so.
We have no difficulty convincing ourselves what
a splendid job we’re going. Glancing through
newspapers from other universities. The Spectrum’s
technical and literary qualities appear unequalled.
(I’d ask you to come up and convince yourself, hilt
I’ve been through all that.) We have our specific
stories and editorial stands to be proud of. We have
printed more pages than at this time last year and we
are doing it on a smaller slice of your activity fees.
So are yon getting more for your money? Well, in
terms of pulp and ink, undeniably yea.
Then why am I writing this column? Because
this paper is not cutting it as I know it can cut it,

that’s basically why.

So even when we know students are getting
screwed, we are often powerless to writ* responsibly
about it. This translates Into boring articles in which
an administrator makes a secy impressive defense of
his policies, backed up by very official sounding
figures. The same article may offer subjective and
accusatory gripes by students, or unimpressive
of “our side." And
wailings by

We’re Getting Screwed But We Don'tKnow Exactly
How attitude. Or maybe you don’t know what the
hell I’m talking about.
And then there are the student leaders, who are
not exactly inundating this office with hot news tips.
We ate fighting the same battles; it’s just that they
are alternately oar allies and enemies. Of course,
their unwillingness to due os in on certain issues
could be either a reflection of our irresponsibility as
journalists or their irresponsibility as student leaders.
And floating over the whole issue is the feeling that
students in general neither know nor care about
what their student government does. If you came up
here and told me you were sick and tired of stories
and cohuns about hacks and hack organizations, I
could offer you no argument. None.
This returns us to the conflict between What
you are interested in reading and what you should be
interested in, i,c., what’s important. Do we
concentrate only on the former? That kind of
journalistic thinking has brought us the New York
Poet and Eyewitness News amazingly popular, and
intellectually vacuous. So do we aim our efforts at
the latter? That requires injection of our personal
prejudices and this implicit “holier than: thou”
attitude toward our readers. The issues are what we
make them has been heard around this office more
than once. Though I see the danger in this, I’m
certainly not dear on what to do with it.
And always, hanging over our heads, are the
prize winning bound volumes of 1969 and 1970
lying silently on the shelves of this office, signifying
the long-gone glory days of this newspaper.

A untying affair
To the Editor-

I am glad to see that students are Anally
showing their discontent with the articles that
recently have been printed in The Spectrum, our
student newspaper.
Recently Mr. Steiniger (October 26) stated that
articles on professional baseball (N.Y. Yankees) has
no place, in a college newspaper. I agree. I also feel
that article? on professional journalism (something
The Spectrum obviously does not possess) does not
haye its place in a college newspaper. I am referring
to. the series of articles printed on the dominance of
the Sunday edition qf the city newspapers.
I would never have written this letter except
that, there was an issue that should have received
frqnt page precedence for weeks. That is the return
of football to the UB community.
Bruce Beyer, a fugitive, returned to Buffalo
after seven years of exile. The Spectrum printed a
series of articles, mostly front page, on this man.

The week before the first game in seven years, there
were only a few articles buried inside the Friday
issue. Poorly written at that, may I add. I was truly
expecting a three-inch banner headline on the front
page. Of course, I must be naive. The Spectrum only
gave that sort of headline to Charles Pernaslese when
convicted of murder. Or one small listing about the
pep rally before the Canisius game. Rapist “Kenny”
Johnson gets many listings throughout the paper for
his pep rallies.
This past week we played Brockport, an
important game to the football team. Not one article
was printed on Friday.

There, has been considerable discussion in recent
weeks about the Faculty Student Association (FSA),
the University services corporation. This installment
of SA PROFILES will focus on the structure of FSA
and some recent changes in the organization, rather
than the controversies.
FSA operates various University services,
including the Food and Vending Service, the
Bookstore, Check Cashing, the Ticket Office in
Squire Hall and linen services in the dormitories.
i FSA receives no outside funding, relying only
on income generated by its own services. Hence,
estimates must be made to maintain operating
guidelines. For instance, Food Service operates on a
ten percent “missed meal” estimate in order to keep
costs down. This usually accurate system, however,
was upset by last winter’s blizzard when the normal

ten percent margin was dramatically reduced causing
a shortage. Last summer, the Board of Directors or
FSA was restructured to include more student
participation. Six students now sit on the Board.
Previously, the Board included only two student
representatives. The only other sources of student
input were in the form of two advisory committees
on the Bookstore and Food Service. Four
representatives from the Student Association (SA),
Dennis Black, Andy Lalonde, Dan Kinley and
Alexandra Kukan, one from the Graduate Student
Association and one from the Millard Fillmore
College Student Association are the student
members of the Board. SA Executive Vice-President
Andy Lalonde is Chairman of the Board.
Board meetings are held monthly and are open
to the public.

Give IRC a chance
To the Editor:
As much as IRC has been the source of heated
controversy of late including enough fruitless
exchanges, 1 now feel inclined to break my silence.
UhtO now. I’ve maintained the Harpo role since the
thing I detest second most, besides politics (in the
petty sense), is senseless bickering. Both sides are
equally guilty of ensueing with an entourage of
destructive criticism, negative results accomplished. I
emphasize this so that the tone of my comments
should be interpreted constructively.
Firstly, we do not pretend to maintain total
innocence. We admittedly make, and have made.
mistakes. We are only human, and all busy students
besides, and we try not to take exception to anyone
pointing out our error if presented fairly. Better yet.
if related in a constructive sense, perhaps then we
can learn and benefit from it. It is discouraging that
The Spectrum has chosen to print whatever it feels
like printing without adequate attention and with
insigfatrveness lacking; once printed there is no
erasing of the impression left on the reader’s mind.
Refuting is futile and unnecessary if journalism has
been performed responsibly, including a proper
determination of the facts and situation beforehand.

totality, with last minute phone calls or abrupt
comment not being conducive to fair representation.
Utilization of proper channels for information is

even pretend that this has been the total case so far,
but that is the direction we are striving to attain and
we have made considerable gains along these lines.

was considerable mention made of our budget yet it
simply is not deserving of such attention, it really is
of secondary importance. We offer a package of
entertainment and tangibles to the students to elicit
membership that provides us with two things; (a)
less importantly, funds to provide the entertainment
promised; (b) most importantly, members, students,
the greatest majority and representation possible.
That way we can respond to, involve and work with,
and represent a majority faction to attain a
bargaining

situations. Thus, our funds lead to entertainment
which in itself is a means to the end. Our funds are
adequate, we have had and co-sponsored events, will
continue to do so plus coffeehouses, etc.
ah
besides top rate movie presentation. But The
Spectrum echoes my sentiments that the main order
of business is students and dorm problems;
involvement here is cheap. One does not need a
walloping budget to accomplish what the objectives
of IRC are, we can accomplish something, yet still
have fun and amuse ourselves besides. If you chastise
us for our failures, it is because as of yet we have not
had the involvement and student action needed; our
objective is to achieve this and channel it
constructively. We totally invite student response,
but we need it before the fact; we ask for action and
involvement, not belated criticism. Great energy
certainly has been expanded in admonishment via
literary features, had half that total effort been
expended at the onset we all may have reaped the
rewards. A mutual relationship based on cooperative
use, not abuse, will be beneficial to all and a far cry
from the mistrust and hard feelings already wrought.

OFFICE OF CULTURAL AFFAIRS

Amidst all the bickering currently in progress on

campus, one fact remains inarguably clear: The
Spectrum is serving a very useful purpose as a forum
for the exchange of ideas. From Pat C, Roman to
IHC, The Spectrum has allowed many fascinating
opinions to surface. Thank you!

presents

The first topic I’d like to bring up should cause
no argument: the curtailment of hours at the
University libraries. Specifically, I’m upset with the
cutbacks at the Science and Engineering Library.
Tuesdays and Fridays, the SEL closes at 5 p.m. I was
hoping to do some research for a lab report this
evening (Tuesday, 10/25) at the SEL, but arrived
there at 8 p.m. to find it was closed. I’ll be able to
rearrange my plans, but that surprise I didn’t need.
The long-range plans for SUNYAB published
tet year call for a greater emphasis on graduate-level
research. It seems to me that an efficient,
wp.U-stocked library system is mandatory for the
nurturing of a high-quality research reputation. This
curtailment jeopardizes that potential reputation,
and increases the level of inconvenience on already
beleagured students.
I have one suggestion for the University
libraries. It may be unpopular, but at least it’s a
start. The late-night function of the UGL seems to
be a “cram” center for forthcoming tests (usually
the next day). Are library facilities necessary for this
purpose? Why not open Diefendorf Hall (or
Diefendorf Annex) for late night studying, staffed
by one person whose purpose is to baby-sit the
hi.iMing- to make sure no one sets fire to it, for
instance. The leftover funds could then be used to
restore early evening hours at least to the SEL.
It seems the Erie County sherriff’s department (
Buffalo Evening News, 10/25) is having trouble
spending its budgetary allowance. SUNYAB should
offer to remove the burden of spending that money
from the county.
Topic two concerns Rick Eddy’s letter (“Happy
To Be Alive.” 10/24) to The Spectrum. Rick, you
share ray sentiments 200 percent! What a refreshing
letter. I’d like to add one point: AO the current
crises (ID cards, IRC, the Olympics) seem to have
one common denominator; lack of communication.
Administration with students, students with
I think a lot of the current
students, whatever
problems could have been rendered less painful by
an attempt by every person associated with
SUNYAB to communicate better. When you see a
problem developing, speak up! Left untreated, a
little problem can turn into an unsolvable, no-win

The element that I've always appreciated the

most in both David Bromberg's music and in the

man himself, or at least (n the man as he appears
thiough his music, is the humor. Listen to his
blues-talk, his ad-libs; qftsdngs.like "Bullfrog Blues"
and "Will Not Be Your Fool", both Bromberg
compositions, and you can't help shrieking at least
once or twice. He is also, without a doubt, a very
serious and talented musician and songwriter, but his
humor always seems to remain uppermost in my

mini.

*.

V-*C*ts �'OTt?#

•With this impression, therefore, I went to
interview David Bromberg Friday night before he
appeared at Clark Hall to a capacity (to say the least)
crowd. I wasn't quite prepared for the man I met.
Bromberg was quite, polite, serious, and, if it's at all
possible, a bit nervous? Come on, somebody who's
(My lifetime!),
been playing guitar for nineteen
has had "stars" like Dylan and the Dead play with
him](Not to mention Chubby Checker), and has a
firrq following of fans who know good
folk-bluegrass-bluesboogie when they hear, it/
(though he's never hit the Top 40 paydirt and won
those multitudes) couldn't be at all apprehensive.
Not: about playing for a crowd that would most
likely be recptive to him and his show (Why else
would they be there? They knew what they were
gettihg into, I'm sure). And it couldn't have been me
I may be many things,, but frightening. I'm not.
Well, I must have imagined it. Right?
-

Fame not mine
One thing I know I didn't imagine was%
Bromberg's modesty and the acceptance of himself
and -his -place in the cnusjeworldthat yyent along
with ft. As he put it, ''‘Fame is a rather peculiar goal,
and it's not mine. I've known people who've always
wanted to be famous, that's what they've strived for,
and they're not happy with it. Some people are. But
fame's not what I'm striving for." So whatt irOavW”
Bromberg's goal? 'To play really well, and by doing
that, have a good time."
Another element of Bromberg's music that
makes it satisfying to varied tastes it its' diversity, "f.
try to keep it interesting," he commented. 'This is
not very calculated, what I do, at all. We're very
diverse; we have a repetoire of 100-200 songs. They
drop in and out once in awhile." Where does he get
all this material from? "I listen to a lot of records."
He keeps his listening varied, also: “I'd hesitate to
name favorites.'' From being a Greenwich Village
folkie in the sixties, Bromberg has met many people
("A lot of them, Dylan for instance, came and saw
me play") and come a long way. To hear him talk,
though, you'd think he was still a veritable nothing.
The recognition that he has earned hasn't made him
into anything near an "unreachable star".
The Jane Olderman Band began the evening at
10:30
not bad. Jane has a pleasant, folky voice,
and performs pleasant, forgettable, original songs.
She has a tendency to run her words together,
making a good deal of her lyrics unintelligible. Her
band provided adequate backup and some good
harmony on a couple of tunes, the most interesting
(but odd) of which was the acappeila "Rice Crispies"
jingle, followed by "All Over Now", with a bit of
staged movement a la the Temptation. They ended
their 45-minute set without an encore
—

Divine reckless abendon
David Bromberg and his band took the stage at
11:40. They began with a bluegrass-flavored "Six
Days On The Road" that digressed into a jam, with
Bromberg, Dick Fegy and George Kindler all playing
fiddles. John Firmin added some woodwinds and
suddenly changed the tune into an Irish jig. Kindler
changed the acoustic fiddle for an electric one, and
the band jumped into a fine boogie tune. Curt
Linberg's trombone and Firmin's fine sax adding
depth. Bromberg announced the arrival of his new
L.P., RacMu Abandon "that's all I'm going to say
about it because plugging records is obnoxious.
However, buying them is divine."
Next came "Steelin'," a tune from that most
recent album, complete with horns, mandolin, and

everything! The extreme talent of the musicians and
the variety of things each could do was impressive.
Fegy played mandolin, fiddle, banjo and guitar,
Firmin a variety of woodwinds and sax, and
Bromberg himself acoustic and electric guitars as
a fiddle and mandolin. The rythm section,
featuring Lance Dickerson on drums and an
unidentified bass player, added background vocals,

Bromberg explained why he became a musicain
with the catchy "I Like To Sleep Late In The
Morning". An excellent, camped-up version of the
old Leiber-Stoller rocker, "Idol With the Golden
Head", followed. Changing styles again, Bromberg,
McDonald and Dickerson sang acappella "The Battle
of Bull Run", which became a fiddle-ridden
instrumental. I could have listened to them pick all
night and jam sessions usually bore the hell out of
me. Bromberg's were unusually short, and
undeniably sweet.
The most mellow song of the evening was
"Dehlia" about a "special" prostitute murdered by
her pimp. Bromberg performed it alone on the

acoustic guitar, and one could see how drilled he was
truly a "musician's musician". He had a light
and loving touch that made his playing seem almost
effortless. It appeared impossible that he could ever
play a wrong note. Ha explained the song, adding
jokes, bdt remaining sensitive to its sad story. His
—

vocals were effective, and I don't tee how anyone
could really criticize them. Granted, his voice leaves
something to be desired, but it fits his music and
himself.
Play to enjoy
The concert continued on in a similar, excellent
vein, highlighted by the spirited (You've Got to)
"Suffer to Sing the Blues" and the georgeous Ian

Tyson tune, "Summer Wages," until 1:11. That's
and hour and a half, which he considered a long time
to play: "We usually do 'bout an hour and fifteen
minutes. Two hours is a long time! You try standing
underneath the lights for two hours, and that's a
long time, never mind singing ..." Every time a
song ended I had a sinking feeling that it was the
last, particulary because Bromberg was always taking
off one guitar to switch to another instrument.
The David Bromberg Band performed "Sweet
Home Chicago", a Robert Johnson boogie-blues
number, for their first encore. They were called back
again by the dancing crowd, most of whom had been
on their feet awhile now. They did "What a Town",
from the latest album, and Mac Rebennack's "Such
A Night" getting everyone to dap and ting alont.

received for "Lady Be Good," Terry started to sing the blues. Wailing
on the words from My Gal, with the rhythm section periodically
howling in the back, Terry started toying with the audience. While
talking to the crowd about hi* reckless women, bassist Victor Scolls
goosed Terry from behind with his bow.
The crowd roared, the quartet cracked up, and the vibe meter hit
capacity. Terry left the stage allowing the remaining three to take off.
Ronnie Matthews rolled up and down the blues scales while Victor
SoolH handed out the Head on baas. The group has been playing on and
off for the past five years, and it is obvious, from all the key and tempo
changes, that they are consummated musicians. Terry came beck on
stage playing a mouthpiece. Wa-waing along with some simple blues
riffs, he brought the tune to a screeching climax by reverberating his
processed air through the three inches of brass.
Clark Tarry is a facile, driving trumpeter. He used half-valve
effects, mixed with double-time passages (ala Gillespe) producing a
unique style, distinctly his own. On the "Grand Canyon Suite/' after
trading licks with Victor Scolls, Terry picked up his fiuglehorn, along
with his milled trumpet, and began a question and answer period with
the two instruments.
The key to Terry's competence as a performer is his diversity. The
songs are usually standards or bop (Billie Holiday's "God Blass the
Child," Duke Ellington's 'Take the A Train"), and played In a manner
which distrupts monotony; some fluglehorn, mumbles, muted trumpet,
sing the blues, etc. Many jazz musicians don't extrapolate on that one
key instrument, but Clark Terry (and Rahsan Roland Kirk, among
others) are constantly changing the mode of presentation, keeping the
audience on its toes. The crowd was relaxed and attentive, an aura
directly precipitated by the Downtown Room itself. Terry's fabulous
rapport with the audience is due to his easy going style and the
enjoyment he derives from his work. The man is a pro, and it radiates
throughout the performance. All one has to do is see him in action.

�idicule on thi

Harriman Studio

Moreau, an universally acclaimed actress, wrote and directed
Lumiere
based on her own life as an actress. Touted as a film "by
women, about women, and for women," Moreau misses terribly with
the script and the direction. Her characters are lifeless, android. The
film is devoid of character development, and while character
development is not always necessary (based upon what the director is
trying to accomplish), it is essential when characters are introspective
and revealing, as they are in Lumiere. That is, there must be depth of
"persona" before we can view ''meaning" with respect to characters
and have that conveyed to us. As if Moreau does not trust her viewers
to think, she clubs us with important statements on existence and life
without putting the emphasis where it would have mattered and should
have been her characters.

blues pianist Sumyiand Slim.
Slim, whose real name is Albert
Luandrew, has played a major role
in the development of the Chicago
blues. He has recorded with many
of the greats, including Muddy
Waters, J.B. Lenoir, Robert Jr.
Lockwood, and Howlin' WoH. In
fact, Sunnyland Slim was on the
very first recordings that Muddy
made for Leonard Chess and the
Aristocrat (later Chess) Records.
Slim, who plays with a firm left
hand and a rag-flavored right, has
been laying down sides on his own
since he recorded as Dr. Clayton's
Buddy for RCA-Victor, and is one
of the most respected members of
the Chicago Mum community.
Sunnyland Slim's fans include the
members of Canned Heat, who
used Slim on some of their
sessions and who backed Slim on
port of an album that was
recorded
for
World Pacific
Records. Another sideman on that
album was one Mick Taylor, who
was still with John Mayall at the
time. Blues piano is an art which,
like much Hues, seems so simple
to do, but perhaps because of its
simplicity is rarely done well.

albums,

On Thursday evening, October 20,
1977, four members of the Lynyrd
Skynyrd organization; lead singer Ronnie
Van Zandt, guitarist Steve, Gaines, his
sister, vocalist Cassie Gaines, and road
manager Dean Kilpatrick were killed when
their twin engine plane crashed just outside
of Gillsburg, Mississippi. This incident
marks the fifth time in the history of rock
music that musicians of the genre were
killed in plane crashes. The deaths of the
three members of Lynyrd Skynyrd also
brings the total of rock musicians to die in
the past two months to five.
It's been barely a month since a London
car crash took the life of British rock singer
Marc Bolan on September 16. Born Mark
Feld, Bolan fjrst became recognized as half
of an acoustic duet called Tyrannosaurus
Rex. Teamed with a percussionist named
Steve Peregrine Took, Tyrannosaurus Rex
issued two acoustic albums that were
based upon Bolan's private
heavily
mythologies. The later substitution of
Mickey Fin for Took eventually lead to the
electric transition from gentle folkiness to
a rock, bop, and roll excitement,
appropriately abbreviated T. Rex. In just
over three years, Bolan and T. Rex sold
over 37,000,000 records, mostly in Britain,
Scandanavia, the Far East, and Australia.
Although he recently launched a hit
television series in Britain, indicative of his
productivity in Europe, Bolan's death
gained little attention in the United States.
Just as they did during Bolan's highpoint,
T. Rex albums remain perspective cut-out
buys in this country.
A month before this, the world virtually
exploded when a,Mississippi boy named
Elvis Presley passed away on August 16 of
"cardia arrythmia," an irregular heartbeat.
Extensive media coverage followed the

•

-

The King was dead, and the attention he
received was fit for one, eclipsing the
deaths of all who passed before him.
The death of the members of Lynyrd
Skynyrd in a plane crash force ominous
flashbacks to parallel incidents that have
previously taken the lives of past rock
musicians. On February 2, 1959, Buddy
Holly and Big Bopper, and 17-year-old
Richie Valens were killed when their plane
crashed minutes after take-off from Mason
City Airport in North Carolina. On
December 10, 1967, Otis Redding and four
members of the Barkays that were touring
with him were killed as they crashed onto
an icy lake near Madison, Wisconsin. Other
air tragedies have taken the lives of Bill
Chase, and most of the members of his
group Chase (remember the hit "Get It
On") as well as that of song/poet Jim
Croce.
Add to this list (which includes all of
the more noted mishaps; Jim Morrison,
heart attack, 1971; Janis Joplin, heroin
overdose, 1970; Jimi Hendrix, inhalation
of vomit following barbituate intoxication,
1970; Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones,
"misadventure," found in swimming pool),
some of the lesser publicized deaths, and
you find the rock music industry to have
been extemely hard hit in its brief 20
years.

What we have been (and will be) discussing here,
obviously, is cross-currents. From relatively small but
securing record labels to overseas companies unveiling long
lost and unknown classics, it is a world venture, this
spreading, surveying Music.

Among the many epochs of his career is a recent wind
timbred movement released thru the Italian label.
Timeless. Icih-Bsn is a fleet ballet stepping with the blood
of multi-cultural veins in ritual. Featuring a fine rendition
of Woody's "Moontrane" (written for John Coltrane, it
bears equally strong affinities to 'Take The A Train" of
Strayhorn/EHington fame), it highlights the empathy that
the Music produces/is produced from. From Ronnie
Matthews' classically sensitive touch purs Mackvelvet piano
(and the title tune). Stafford James, a bassist who once
played with Sun Ra, sends sheer electric streams via
acoustic expertise. Junior Cook burns on tenor with
assured sonority, while Louis Hayes' drums are as a million
explosions laced for your release. Completing
this ensemble is Guilherme Franco, maestro of the
Percussion of the Ages. McCoy Tyner knows. Musk forms
resurgent, integral waters.

Here we are.

1960. A sweet tone of trumpet purges the harshness
like a kiss, blowing the winds of coy affection whose core
is bolder that momentary distraction. With an affinity to
Miles' tone and a boilingly articulate approach that could
even make Clifford Brown pause, Booker Little's brief but
potent legacy becomes even more permanent thru the
courtesy of the British Island Records. The Legendary
Quartet Album unveils the balladeer's depth that his
artistry brought to jjs, an ability to make us cry in shame

gathered to produce the hauntingly beautiful rendition of
"Who Can I Turn To," while the bright opening of "Life's
A Little Blue" finds Booker and Scott steering the Music
straight ahead for the frontiers. Warm journey awaits you.
The trails and trails that people like Booker took and
underwent are appreciated, perhaps, strongest by those
who continued his work. One gentleman whose approach

Prodigal Sun

A strong gathering place of th Music is the Creative
Music Studio in Woodstock, N.Y. A center to develop an
all-around aptitude of the Creative Musicks and the World
it comes from (or has to deal with: see The Spectrum,
10/14, pg.17), its potency can be viewed by way of its
instructive exponents: Anthony Braxton, Sam Rivers, Don
Cherry, Lao Smith, and many more. (Contributions are
welcome. Write CMS, ROB 671, Woodstock, N.Y. 12498).
A prime document of the virtuosity and color of this
Foundation is The Peace Church Concerts (available thru
India Navigation, a fast growing record prominence in
yriiat is the coming Musk).. A Muun (Music Universe) of
earth and wind chambered acstacy, the ringing units of this
movement run from the Studio's Originator, vibeswizard

Karl Berger, to his highly vocal lady Ing Rid, the
electracoustic synthsizer of Richard Teitlebaum, the
bossviolin caress of David Holland, the trombonic Tam of
Garrett List and so much more. Channeled via Ing RM's
high word poetics, these natural springs bubble
effervescency with a life that no artificial powder can dust
away. Labeled
Volume 1 el the Creative Music
Communication series (CMC), we can only hope for
extreme continuation.
India Navigation, meanwhile, is placing more and
more of the rarely recorded•Masters to work on their label.
From David Murray, whose tenor linguistics roar with a
dear insistency once thought to be an Albert Ayler
monopoly (Note: His album is entitled Flowers For
Albert) to the baritone fire twirl of Hamiet Bluiett
(Endangered Species), or the elastic wide-ranged alto of
Arthur Blythe (whose superb LP, The Grip, indudes the
Sun Ra trumpet shine of Ahmed Abdullah), IN Is fast
matching the recording artistry that such as the
now-departed ESP label possessed.

Among the latest from IN is the Leroy Jenkins Solo
Concert. A masterwork of the AACM violinist's gentleness
and pyrotechnic skill, Leroy (vdto also instructs at the
CMS) brings all the romantic play of the archetypal
Fiddler to bear. From the fiercely refined voyages of
"Lush Life" to the ins|0it (like Booker on "Who Can I
Ti urn To") of "Nobody Knows De Trouble I Seen", it is an
intensely personal warmth that plucks and plays on your
heartstrings. Why you are here.

One For Lady. One Catalyst for die Lady Day of the
blues bouquet and lovers'sway. Billie Holiday.
One for Lady Kiniko Kasai, a rich vocal blossom of
the Rising Sun (Japan). She caresses each tune with a
sweet, seductive energy that tendon. Innocence Rowing in
fertility. Nature. I believe, is the plane. A hint of Sarah
Vaulin touches from her lips, as well as Billie, yet the
Mai Waldron, the pianist who accompanied Billie in
the late 60s, plays grand scheme in the enactment of this
musical dream. His playing with Eric Oolphy and Booker
Little shows
at key points, making one suddenly
think of a faraway horn whose play drifts on the
moonlight The shine is dramatically engaged as well by
the rich fingerpainting of bassviolinist Yoshio Suguki and
the sand tapestries of drummer Hiroshi Murakami.
The empathy these four share produces a warmth and
searching strength that only true balladeers may dare.
They play the Music, and not a toyed-with notion that
ballads are stagnant or are only to be done boringly. TTtat't
a lie, like the one that the blues am only a sod tong.
Listen. The Words contain more voice than even they
know, and, if depicting a factual plight may convey a
means to end it and grow right if only by the surging smile
and full-bodied charm, suggestive thru a tome prevalent in
�his Music and the people.
Love
One for the lady. Now. Later.

�CMS: diversity in
a unique program
by Mitch Cross

Paying for gimmicks

The high price of insurance
by Tony Ample
Staff Writer

Spectrum Staff Writer

Spectrum

On the screen, a naked man is jumping over a brass bed in the
middle of an open field. The audience isn’t very surprised, they’re used
to the ‘‘avant garde” films shown by the Center for Media Study
(CMS), Started in 1972 under the direction of Gerald O’Grady, the
center is one of the most progressive in the country. The New York
Tlmei Hitcher Education Supplement said, “Film needs to be grasped
within the framework of media centers, able to join creative and
theoretical work in a fluid and ceaselessly responsive way; the widely
acclaimed model of such a center is the one set up by Gerald O’Grady
at the State University of New York at Buffalo.”
CMS is unlike any other department at this school, dealing with
the technical study and production of film and video as well as theory,
history and psychic and social effects of media. Director Gerald
O'Grady sees the diversity of this school as an advantage to the
department. “We're anxious for our students to take courses in other
ureas and we welcome students from other departments,” he stated.
O’Grudy's belief in the importance of media people pursuing other
studies is reflected in the Media Center’s faculty.
Highly acclaimed artists
Tony Conrad, a filmmaker now teaching several courses with CMS,
hold* a math degree and is an accomplished musician and composer.
Brian Henderson, another film teacher, has studied Philosophy, Law
and Psychology, Prize video teacher Woody Vasulka is also an electrical
engineer. His wife, Steina teaches video and is a concert violinist.
Johana Gill, in the Rockefeller Foundation Working Papers wrote; “He
(Gerald O’Grady) has assembled a faculty that includes some of the
most interesting people working in film and video today.” CMS has
about ten full-time faculty members and hosts frequent visiting artists.
Gerald O’Grady stated that at CMS, a student not only has a
chance to become versed in technical know-how important in
Job-getting, he can also develop himself as an artist. In defense of this
position, O’Grady pointed out the uncanny ability of media students
to get jobs and have their work viewed publicly. Scott Nygren, now
completing his doctorate degree in the English Department, has
accepted a position to direct the film program at the Universty of
Toledo. Alan Williams, holding a French department doctorate, has
accepted a teaching position at the University of Iowa.
Many students who have had training at the Media Center,
receiving undergraduate degrees in 1976 are now enjoying international
recognition. Andrej Zdravic’s work is being shown at the Canyorl
Cinema in California. Gail Camhi’s “Coffee Break,” a film shot in this
University’s payroll office is being shown at the Collective for Living
Cinema in New York City. Glen Muschio won a “Best Documentary
Video" award at the Athens International Film Festival. The Cracow,
Poland International Film Festival will include a film by David
Steward, another 1976 graduate.

Talent, not equipment

('MS Is considered a “program,” not a department. To be able to
give degrees, the center must first get permission from the Board of
Regents, the State University System and this school. Although the
Center has already applied for the power to give BA, MA, PhD and
MIA degrees, approval will take time. The Center’s inability to give
degrees has not slowed enrollments. 335 undergraduates and 170
graduates were enrolled during the two 76-77 semesters and the
summer sessions. About 25 undergraduates who wanted to major in
CMS courses became Special Interdisciplinary Majors.

�JJ Murphy and the Best infolk music at Squire

art

of avant-garde

*

by Gerard Stemesky
Arts Editor
There are any number of seemingly reasonable explanations as to
why throughout the history of the art world, the avant-garde
movement has been the most difficult to understand and accept.
Certainly the definition of the term: “The leaders in new movements,”
does little to broaden the avant-garde’s appeal. One is very often easily
intimidated by these leaders, for they operate on the fringes of
accepted artistic expression. Admittedly, their art is not directed at a
mass audience; in both method and subject, it is a more personal and,
at times, more intentionally obscure form than, say, commercial film
or theater.
Understandably, then, one approaches avant-garde art with a
certain amount of hesitancy, and is indeed relieved to meet someone
like JJ. Murphy. Murphy, a young filmmaker, was on hand last
Thursday at the Albright-Knox Gallery in the second event in the
Evenings For New Film series.
Accurate yet unreal
He is a quiet, engaging person, seeming to be out of place leading a
discussion, yet more than willing to explain the ideas on which his
films are based. “There is no message in my films,” he said, “insofar as
something which could be stated.” His first film. Sky Blue Water Light
Sign, seemed to bear this out. It is, quite literally, a color film of a
“light sign,” an advertising display which, in this case, was used to
promote a mid-western beer. “From The Land of Sky Blue Water,” the
slogan goes, and, indeed, for nine minutes one watches a long, slow pan
along the banks of a stream. The color and movement of the water in
the stream has an eerie, unsettling quality to it. Although the setting is
a calm one, the image appears to be accurate, yet unreal.
The second film of the evening. Print Generation is a further
attempt at what Murphy called “a different kind of film experience.”
The movie, which was awarded the Centre Experimental du Cinema
Prize in 1975, is comprised of 60 images, each lasting one second, and
undergoing fifty consecutive “generations,” that is, a reproduction of
the image in whcih each consecutive image is used as the negative for
the next. As the number of prints increases, the quality of the image
deteriorates, resulting in a picture wherein only the points of greatest
light reflection are seen.
“The film is about perception,” Murphy said afterwards, “and the
thing? we have been programmed to expect from a film.” Once again,
there is no message. Instead different emotions are evoked. The
distorted images at the beginning of the film are both threatening and
beautiful.“As they become dearer, and we begin to recognize the things
we are looking at, their beauty fades, and is replaced by a feeling of
calm reassurance. The second half of the film is a repetition of the first
half, this time run in reverse. Thus, we already know how the movie
will progress, and we must view the images with, as Murphy puts it; “A
concern for a metapoetry engaging cognition and memory.”

Great historical bum
As Clark Kent i to Superman, Bruce Phillips is
to “U. Utah Phillips, the Golden Voice of the Great
Southwest.” Bruce Phillips spent a good part of his
life hopping trains from one end of the country to
t’other, helping build a railroad, washing dishes in
Yellowstone, organizing for the Wobblics
the
International workers of the World, Joe Hill’s union
and, yes, “running either for or from the Senate
on the Peace and Freedom Party ticket, all the while
singing and playing my guitar as a kind of
diversionary activity.”
Phillips was probably pinned best by one of his
buddies, singer Luke Baldwin: “Utah is the guy who
has lied and punned his way through an unending
string of festivals, coffeehouses and bars. But Bruce
has done the real bumming, organizing, gandy
dancing and dishwashing. Utah drinks the whiskey.
Bruce has the ulcer.” And maybe the most
important distinction: “Bruce writes the songs.”
The songs
“I sing songs about bums, trains,
unions, politicians, the old and new West, and all the
different things that happen to you when you’re in
love.” His songs are direct and honest, and they set
before you the places and the people he sings of;
cowboys too old to do anything but cook (‘The
Goodnight Loving Trail”), memories of old love (“I
Remember Loving You”), the faded glories of the
railroads (“Daddy, What’s a Train?”). They’re
reminiscent of the songs of another union man,
Woody

Guthrie. But Utah Phillips, Bruce Phillips, whoever

he is, is his own man

Another scion of Salt Lake City pot started
musically about the same time as Utah: Rosalie
Sorrels, who left the straight life
that of a
housewife, in her case
back in Idaho, ("but." she
says, “I discovered Malcolm Lowry, Wild Turkey,
and Routes 80 and 90.”) She also discovered music,

Many musicians are liked, admired, or praised
Rosalie is all of these, and more; she is loved by
those who hear her, and I don't know of any
musician any other artist at all
who inspires that
kind of devotion. Rosalie has earned that devotion.
Commitment is an easy word to bandy around,
but Rosalie is one of the exceptions that disprove;:

and hearing it is a glory.) She can also come up
with something as tuneless as her baby-rocking
songs, ‘The Baby Tree,” and ‘This Is The Day Wc
Give Babies Away” (the latter for hostile moods).
They speak deeply of her heart, and the hearts of
many others.
Rosalie Sorrels and Utah Phillips gave each other
a lot of the encouragement that a musician needs to
find his own voice. They’ve come from many of the
same places, seen many of the same things. (They
even record for the same label, Philo Records.) They
usually have a hell of a good time when their paths
cross and the feeling goes around for everyone to
sample, like the bottle of Jack Daniels that passed

Movie* and stiDs
Movie Stills is Murphy’s newest film, and Evenings For New Film
marked its premiere. The movie is an attempt to show the relation
between the “still’* and “moving” picture media. Through some
technical reworking, Murphy has succeeded in using “still” unages as
movie footage, and movie footage as “still” images. There is no real
“motion” in the film. The only “motion” that occurs is the deepening
in tone of a series of movie frames which have been photographed with
an instant developing camera. Unfortunately, though, the images he has
chosen to present lack any intrinsic interest. Thus, Movie Stills is a film
which is more attractive in theory than it is in practice.

football at West Liberty State, in
Wheeling, West Virginia. Lou led
West Liberty State to the National
of Intercollegiate
Association
Athletics championship in 1971,
starring as an all purpose running
back. “I never thought about
professional football while in
college. The pro scouts were not
very high on a 170 pound small
running back,” said Piccone.
The former New York Jet
graduated with a speech degree
and began teaching in Vineland,
New Jersey. Piccone taught sixth
and seventh grade in a school
where the total enrollment was
about 200 kids.
One half year later Piccone was
contacted to try out for a
semi-pro team from Youngstown,
Ohio, which played , in the
Midwest Football Conference.
Youngstown
The
coach
approached Piccone and asked if
he wanted to play pro football.
Piccone corrected him. “You
mean semi pro ball.” The idea of
returning
to football thrilled
Piccone. When he asked the coach
“

what they were going to pay, the
coach replied, $50 to start and
$30 if you don’t play a game.” At
first, Lou felt it was ridiculous to
give up a secure teaching position
for one last gasp of football. ‘The
turning point in my decision to
play for Youngstown was because

Piccone returned for his second
season as a starter. During the off
season he taught school and
worked out four to five hours a
day. “1 basically worked on my
speed, and improved to get it
under 4.5,” added Piccone.

Maximum potential
Lou was driven to find out his
maximum athletic potential. “I
want to see how far I can go, and
at the same time try to compete
against the best,” said Piccone.
Piccone began to work out for
four to five hours a day. “It was a

Piccone later received free
agent tryout offers from the
Philadelphia
Eagles
and
the
Washington Redskins, following a
solid second season. “In both

one field. It was a public relations
ploy to give anyone a chance. It
was a one day affair, with many
free agent hopefuls coming from
all parts
of the country,”
explained Piccone.
“Only two per cent of an NFL
team is made up of free agents, so
my chances were slim. In both
Philadelphia and Washington 1 was
told 1 was a good athlete, but
wasn’t offered a contract. Speed
was my asset, and 1 was searching
for the truth. 1 was looking for an
answer to the question: can 1 play
football professionally?” said
Piccone.
Lou continued his
conditioning program, hoping for
a chance to find the answer about

Piccone played three years in
Youngstown. Piccone was used
both as a running back and a
receiver. His speed was clocked at
4.5 in the 40 yard dash, which is
similar to many NFL receivers’
speed.

“In Youngstown, there were
quality athletes, but little quality
in the coaching department. Many
players were pro cuts but the
system we played under wasn’t
very sophisticated,” said Piccone.

Rookie coach finds
season memorable
The UB women’s tennis team concluded its 1977 season Tuesday
with a 5-2 loss to Syracuse University. The defeat surprised no one.
Actually, Buffalo was delighted to win two matches from Syracuse, the
number two ranked team in the state.
The two wins were particularly significant for the Bulls. Senior
Sharon Ackerman ended her collegiate career by beating Orangeworn an
Conny Ball 6-1, 6-4. The win also evened Ackerman’s personal record
3-3.
For second doubles players Lynda Stidham and Lynne Kirchmaier,
it was an incredible year. The two freshmen sealed their undefeated
season with a marvelously played 6-1,6-2 win over SlTs Nancy Packer
and Sheri Ross, their tenth consecutive victory. Stidham, the
playmaker of the duo, was nearly perfect in placing her shots.
Kirchmaier, too, had a fine day. “I’ve never played that well,” she said.
‘They were really good competition.”

Syracuse kicks Rugby club
by Paul C. Kruger

Meyer then completed the conversion kick and put

UB ahead 6-0.
But this sudden score didn’t take any steam out
of the Syracuse drive. After kicking off to the Bulls,
the Orangemen forced a penalty deep in UB
territory. A penalty kick was awarded, and Syracuse
easily converted it to shorten the Bulls’ lead to 6-3 at
the half.

Spectrum Staff Writer

Last Saturday, playing against one of the finest
teams in the state, the UB Rugby Club suffered a
loss of 15-6 to Syracuse University.
With Buffalo kicking off, the Orangemen found
themselves in trouble early in the game. Due to the
hard hitting of the much improved UB backfield, the
Syracuse ruggers found it extremely difficult to Quiet second half

The second half didn’t open quite as explosively

Brian Prayer pop-kicked the ball to the defending
Syracuse team.
In rugby, the pop-kick is an extremely potent
offensive play. By kicking the ball extremely high,
the forwards can race down the field to either gang
tackle the defending player, or catch the ball
themselves.
In this manner, UB regained possession and
passed the ball out to strong-side wing Sean Duffy.
Duffy then slipped through the Orangemen and
scored Buffalo’s first and only try. Fullback Scott

lead and never looked back.
The Bulls were awarded two more penalty kicks
at goal but missed both. The game ended with
Syracuse scoring another try to make the final score
of 15-6.
Coach Mike Regan attributed the loss to the
discipline of the Syracuse side. He indicated that a
major weakness in Saturday's game was the scrum.
The Bulls’ recent acquisition of a scrum coach
should improve their game trerpendously.
The rugby team kicks off this Saturday at
Niagara University at 1 p.m. The club is still looking
for new members; no experience is required.
Practices are Monday through Friday (except
Tuesday) at 4:30 p.m. at the Ellicott field.

Memorable moments
Mimi Weiss finished her first season at UB with a 9-3 record, losing
to Betsey Gottleib, winner of the New York State Championship, 6-0,
6-2. Co-captain April Zolczer, who climbed from fourth singles on
opening day to second singles, also logged a 9-3 mark, and number one
doubles players Kris Schum and Judy Wisniewski were 8-3 on the year.
For rookie coach Connie Camnitz, there were several memorable
moments during the year. Camnitz felt the win against cross town rival
Buffalo State was especially enjoyable. The Big Four Championship,
also over Buffalo State, was another big win.
The trouble with this season lay in the fact that the Bulls rarelyhad a close match. “Either they wecc realty strong or too
inexperienced,’’ explained freshman Barb Zdybowicz. The Bulls won
four matches by shutouts and two by 6-1 scores. Next season there
may be some tougher foes on the schedule.

State University of New York at Buffalo

roster Hall

State holds up remodeling
by Brian Lipman
Spectrum Staff Writer

The inability to obtain funding for the
remodeling program for Foster Hal) may have a
serious and profound effect on both the Medical
School and the School of Health Related
Professions.
Projected to be transformed into wet lab
facilities for the Medical School, Foster Hall has
gained additional significance in that it has become a
symbol of the entire rehabilitation project planned
for the Main Street Campus, and the Medical School
in particular. According to Associate Vice President
of the Faculty of Health Sciences, Dr. Donald R.
Larson, the state's attitude toward the Foster Hall
remodeling program may well be indicative of its
posture towards the whole rehabilitation project.
Funding for the project has been approved by
the State Legislature, but has been tied up in the
offices of the Division of the Budget (DOB) in
Albany for more than two years with no
entanglement in sight. Meanwhile, the Medical
School and the School of Health Related Professions
have been experiencing a critical lack of both
facilities and space.
The Medical School's problems have been
compounded by the fact that an Accreditation
Committee, which, visited the school last year,
recognized the severity of the problem and urged
that immediate steps be taken to rectify the
situation. The Committee, which is not due back
until 1980, has aked that a report be filed with them
this year informing them of the progress being made
in alleviating the situation.
“Foster Hah play* an integral part in the
ultimate solution to this space problem," said
Larson. In addition to providing additional wet lab
space for faculty and students, it will diminish some
of the pressure involved in transferring people from
building to building as other structures are
rennovated.

hven if the monies for renovation were released
today, the transformation of Foster Hall into a
laboratory facility would still be years away. Vice
President for Facilities and Planning, Dr. John
Telfer, points out, the actual design of the building
by an architect has not even been started yet, as the
architect cannot be hired until the mones is released.
The design process would probably take close to a
year to complete, and it would be a minimum of two
years before the contractor completed the physical
labor. This means that it will be at least three years
before the building would be ready for use.
“The Health Sciences Library, which is of
critical importance to the future of the School of
Health Related Professions, is also undergoing a
severe space problem,” said Larson. Originally placed
in Kimball Tower for a maximum period of five
years to allow other rennovation projects to be
completed, the library is in its fourth year at
Kimball. According to Larson, the library is
presently inadequate for student-faculty needs in
that there simply isn’t enough available space to
house all of its collections. A comprehensive
Bio-Mcdical information center, which would
encompass the Health Sciences Library, is on the
drawing board but since it, too, would require
funding from the state, its future is also inextricably

bound with that of Foster Hall.
There are some'Vennovations in progress on the
Main Street Campus. Presently, half of the fourth,
and all of the fifth, sixth, and seventh floors of
Kimball Tower are being refurbished for the School
of Health Related Professions. The money for this
project, however, was obtained not from the state,
but through one of the few federal grants obtained
by the School.
No definitive reason for the delay in the
disbursement of the monies for Foster Hall has been
given by the State. Although bureaucratic red tape is
often suggested as the reason behind tangles, Larson
points out the present financial condition of the
State is probably the real culprit.

Non-profit FSA shows gain
by Joel Mayersohn
Staff Writer

Spectrum

The non-profit Faculty-Student Association
(FSA), showed a profit of $66,000 for the 1976-77
fiscal year, according to Assistant Vice President for
Housing and Auxiliary enterprises Len Snyder, an

influencial board member.

Despite the gain, Snyder, said he saw no
irregularities in the corporation’s finances. “We
(FSA) need a cushion sufficiently large to support a
corporation of this size,” Snyder said, “FSA
operates under the-guidelines for capital set forth by
the State of New York.

”

Student Association (SA) F xe cut ive Vice
President Andy Lalonde claimed, “In theory, FSA is
a non-profit corporation of the State University.”
The corporation is
with the means to serve
the students and its official responsibility is to
maintain the facilities and provide
for their
replacement. FSA provides essential services to the
students, faculty and the Administration, including
Food Service, campus bookstores and recreation
activities.”
A difference of opinion exists among the FSA
Board members concerning whose interests the
corporation serves, and to what extent students are
being served. Snyder feels that “in the 5 years I have
been with FSA, the corporation has been open to
anyone interested in finding out about FSA. We try
to make ourselves aware of student needs. We read
The S/H'ctrum and constantly seek out student
opinions. We serve the students as best as we can
within our financial constraints.
“Lots of our policies are the result of student
inputs,” said Snyder. He pointed to the voluntary

beard contract and the use of recyclable materials in
Food Service areas as examples.
Lalonde felt the corporation could de better
“FSA is a business and in that sense they had to
serve the people in the corporation, but FSA could
definitely be more receptive to student needs,” he
said. Both SA President Dennis Delia and Lalonde

that all the units in FSA are basically
autonomous. Delia state that “the board is a facade.
There are no students in units to make decisions.”
Delia accused the board of hearing controversial
items only "after action has been taken." Delia
referred, in particular, to the “surcharge” placed on
board contract students at the end of last semester.
FSA Board Member and Treasurer Fdward Doty

details of each unit.”
Food Service, one of the units of FSA, showed a
profit of 544,000. When asked to justify this year’s
contract and cash price increases, given last year’s
profits, Director of Food Service Don Hosie replied,
“We have to respond to price increases. The cost of
many of our products have risen substanially.” Hosie
also pointed out that “about half our profit
($22,500) came from our Ridge Lea facility which is
now being phased out.”
FSA’s major debit has been the Norton (Stjuire)
Hall Division. Last year it showed a net loss of
$15,446, with the Creative Craft Center losing
$27,000. “Norton has undergone numerous changes
and their operation has been tailored.” Snyder said,
“The craft center must become less of a financial
burden to the Norton Hall Division if they are to
continuCto exist in the present state.”
The future of FSA at present is in a state of
flux, Snyder claimed, “FSA is doing its best to
respond to student needs while students are
commuting between three campuses. Our whole
operation is made more complex by split services
and as that decreases we will be more responsible to
student needs. The fewer disruptions, the greater the

service.”
Lalonde agreed that the transition state of the
University has hindered FSA’s operations. He also
felt that as “Albany puts more constraints on FSA,
they will be forced to cut back more and offer less

services.” The best thing for FSA, said Lalonde,
“would be the development of some competition.”
The corporation currently owns a monopoly on the
services it provides.

Mass radiation screenings by the American Cancer Society (ACS)
were causing more breast cancer than they were helping to cure,
according to a Roswell Park cancer expert's testimony before a Senate
committee last June.
The expert, Irwin Brass, Director of Biostatistics at Roswell,
announced his findings almost two years ago. This spring, "instead of
being awarded the Nobel Prize for research,” Brass said his research
grant from the National Cancer Institute was cancelled. Brass had been
funded for eight straight years.
The mass radiation screenings were done on over a quarter of a
million women and consisted of a mammogram in order to determine
whether or not she had breast cancer. The advantage of the
mammograms is that by detecting the breast cancer early, the woman
has an 80 percent chance of being cured.
There are, however, several other ways of detecting breast cancer.
One of the signs of breast cancer is the appearance of a lump on the
breast, easily detectable upon self-examination. Another method of
detecting breast cancer is to have a biopsy performed which, as Dr.
Brass stated, “when done by a good surgeon is just as reliable, as any
mammogram.”

Radiation and breast cancer
Brass went on to say that the mass screening procedure benefits
approximately three women out of every ten thousand whereas the
number of women getting cancer as a result of the exposure to this
radiation could be as many as 100 per ten thousand women. If the

three women who did benefit from the mammograms had waited
another year until the tumor was palpable, their chances of being cured
would have been reduced by 30 percent, he theorized. The problem
with the mammograms, as already noted, is that theradiation received
by the woman is enough to cause cancer.

Unfortunately, cancer of this sort cannot be detected until about
years after the initial exposure. Because of this, there is no way
of telling which of the women who received the ACS screening have
cancer and which do not.

fifteen

Glamour tech
Since the program was initiated, serious objections have been
raised at the same time 250 women were participating. “America has a
hopeless infatuation with the glamour of technology,” Bross said in
explaining the popularity of such a program. He warned that, “You
can't play with technology when hazard is involved, which it always
is.”
According to Bross, “The whole problem boils down to the
if the woman has more to lose by
weighing of cost against benefit
-

being exposed to the radiation than she has to gain, then she should
not receive a mammogram.”
Apparently, most women do indeed have much more to lose than
to gain. In 1972, the National Academy of Sciences released a report
entitled, “Biological Hffects of Ionizing Radiation.” The report studied
the effects of high levels of radiation exposure used for therapeutic
purposes. By means of linear extrapolation (a statistical method used
to theoretically determine the effects of low level radiation from higher
levels) the report stated that the mammograms were relatively safe:
Magazine advertisements followed in which a radiologist boasted that
the benefit-cost ratio of mammography was one hundred and
twenty-five to one.

Bad mammograms
In 1975, a member of the National Cancer Institute (NCI), John
Bailer, announced that the actual benefit-cost ratio was one to one.
Shortly afterward, Bross produced concrete evidence that the
benefit-cost ratio was at least one to four and called for drastic revision
of the ACS program, restricting the mammograms to women of age
fifty or older.
Needless to say, his announcement did not go unnoticed The
ACS, NCI, and the Knergy Research Development Administration,
the ACS being the worst of
among others, raised vehement protest
the lot because in Bross’ words, "they set up the mammography
program in order to capitalize on it. "

Repercussions
Today, nearly two years later, Bross is still feeling the
repercussions of his announcement. This spring, after eight straight
years of funding, Bross’ research grant from the NCI, which included
studies of the effects of radiation, was denied Bross feels that there is a
direct relationship between his findingswand the denial of his grant by
the NCI, A spokesman from the NCI was even quoted as stating that
the denial of Bross’ grant was a result ol his findings on the effects of
radiation. The entire matter is currently being investigated by several
Congressional committees.
Bross, himself, feels that the denial of his grant was no outrage and
stated simply, “1 don’t feel personally affected by the NCI decision
the real crime is that the public was denied the truth. My duty is to the

public good first and to science second,”

�Alleviating the floods A different way to warm up

S/H'drum Staff Writer
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Hydraulic Department has
instituted an Hllicott Creek Flood Control Project, which will divert
water from the Amherst Campus site to prevent future flooding.
According to Section Chief of the Project Kesavarao Yala man chili,
“help is on the way” to alleviate flooding aL the Hllicott Complex.
He reported that the first phase of the project, extending from
Tonawanda Creek to Pfohl Park, will begin in the summer of 1979. The
entire project is hoped to be completed in 1982.
The project will extend from Ellicott Creek Park to Maple Road.
Some of the water in Hllicott Creek Park will be diverted into
Tonawanda Creek. Yalamanchili said that a diversion channel will also
be built at Pfohl Park, downstream from the campus, and that the
Corps is also proposing to enlarge the creek through the campus.
Another diversion channel project is being planned upstream at Maple
Road and Millersport Highway.
He continued that the project will protect the area all along
Hllicott Creek from flooding.
Yalamanchili stressed that the control project is a top priority job
and that several meetings have already been held by the Corps of
Engineers to specify the plans.
Construction not hampered
Despite the flooding, construction at the Amherst Campus has not
been seriously hampered, according to Vice President of Facilities
Planning John Telfer. The construction schedule is proceeding as
planned, with no serious setbacks, due to the fact that “the schedules
anticipate weather problems.” Because the construction workers only
get paid for the days they work, no money is lost on days when
construction is halted, said Telfer.
On the construction site, a spokesman for Sasaki Associates, the
construction compan, agreed that building construction has not been
hampered, but that road construction has. He stated that there is
“slowed construction with no earth work possible." estimating that the
road work has been set back a month. He claimed that there has been
some financial loss but could not give a definite figure. The spokesman
also stated that it had been necessary to "knock some crews off" of the
project because t&gt;f the heavy rain (5.74 inches in September, 2 inches
above normal, according to the National Weather Service).

Independents seek recognition

Awareness program to

aid the handicapped
An organization called the “Independents," composed of
handicapped and non-handicapped people has filed for official
recognition by the Student Association (SA). The recognition decision
will be made at the next Student Senate meeting on Oct. 27.
The group, whose state goal is to “create an awareness of the
capabilities and strengths of handicapped persons on this campus” and
to further the “human and legal rights of handicapped members of the
University,” has been operating in an unofficial capacity since last year.
According to Secretary Cunthia Sitcov-Mermelstein, the group met ten
times last year and three times so far this semester. The last meeting
attracted 18 people and significantly, Sitcov-Mermelstein revealed, half
of those people weren’t handicapped.
Awareness program
According to Sitcov-Mermelstein, “The Independents are
undertaking a program to pursue their rights under state and federal
law. The President of the group, Wanda Miller, added that the
Independents will approach the problem from two ends, one being a
“legal viewpoint,” and the other creating an awareness among the
non-handicapped.
The awareness program will include an “Awareness Week.” during
which workshops will be set up, guest speakers will be invited, and an
attempt will be made to teach the non-handicapped community about
the handicapped.
According to Sitcov-Mermelstein, “We are going to become visible.
We are going to take some positive action in terms of making sure that
section 504 is abided by.” 504 is the section of federal law that
requires this university to make itself accessible to the handicapped
within three years. The administration has been cooperating to some
extent, reported Sitcov-Mermelstein. “The Office of Services to the
Handicapped has been fantastic, but Facilities Planning have been
dragging their feet.”
Unidentified handicapped
There are at least 325 handicapped people in this university, year.
According to Secretary CynUiia Sitcov-Mermelstein, the group but
there are more who have goneunidentified, according to Miller. At this
time, the Independents have “25
members, maybe less,”
Sitcov-Mermelstein claimed.
The Student Senate meeting was to have been held in Squire Hall,
but was moved to Talbert Hall in order to make the meeting accessible
to the handicapped. The Independents will hold their next meeting in
Capen Hall on Tuesday, October 25, at 7 p.m.

�Penn tax settlement

Registers over 2500

delayedby Council Registration drive succeeds
by David Levy
Spectrum Staff Writer

In an expected move, the Buffalo Common Council has delayed a
decision oft whether to accept a Penn Central Railroad offer calling for
a settlement of 50 per cent of the amount of the defunct corporation’s

delinquent taxes.
Mayor Makowski and City Comptroller Robert Whelan liavc
recommended to the Common Council that it accept the offer which
would mean $1.8 million for the city coffers. The original deadline for
accepting the settlement had been October 19 but in a recent court
decision that deadline was extended to December 15.
According to Whelan, the offer would improve the city’s financial
picture by enabling it to write off in its balance sheets (which list the
city’s assets and liabilities) large amounts of reserves that it now must
carry. State finance laws require the city to carry as reserves two thirds
of the amount of delinquent taxes outstanding. This means $10 million
in Buffalo’s case.

Penn and ink
The almost $4 million owed in taxes by Penn Central dates back' to
June 20, 1970. At that time, the entire Penn Central Railroads system
filed for bankruptcy in Philadelphia’s U.S. Bankruptcy Court. The
petition effectively insulated the railroad from any debts that it owed
including property taxes.
In addition to Penn, Whelan noted another $10 to $12 million
owed the city in delinquent taxes, almost half of which by bankrupt
grain mills andxdher railroads.
The “net liquidation value” of Penn Central has bpen set at $685
million by the U.S. Railway Association. This is the amount creditors
could have realized in the market by liquidating and selling its assets
-

either for continued rail use or for scrap.

Pending money
The three judge federal bankruptcy court in Philadelphia will
decide how to apportion the money after the liquidation has taken
place. Buffalo could accept “certificates of value” based on this
anticipated revenue as payment for Penn's delinquent taxes. These
“certificates of value" arc guaranteed by the U.S. government which
assures payment of whatever minimum amount the creditors are
deemed to be constitutionally entitled to receive. Nevertheless, Whelan
feels that the eventual payment to the city will be less than the present
offer of 1.8 million.
$

In a realted development, the Common Council voted last
Wednesday to refund the controversial occupancy tax with the money
expected from the Penn Central tax payment. With the decision to
accept that settlement, now delayed until December, and the
possibility existing that the refund may he illegal, city residents are not

for refunds.

Occupancy tax
The occupancy tux was adopted in l l*7h us u way of raising: SI.5
million 'needed to underwrite a Buffalo Housing Authority deficit. At
the time of its adoption, the tax raised a storm of protest. I uthermorc,
the revenue projection was never met.
The refund resolution, which was sponsored by Council person
Shirley Stolarski and Cieorge K. Arthur was mainly opposed by
administration officials. They are hoping to keep proposed S873.000
refund to help the city financially.
In any case, the litigation involving Penn Central’s lii|uidation
could drag through the courts for years. City officials would like to get
as much money as they can now and keep it.

The New York Public Interest Research Group
has helped register over 2,500
(NYPIRG)
undergraduate students to vote, encompassing 1.232
in person voters and 1,300absentee ballots.
Staff Project Coordinator for NYPIRG at this
University, Ron Wainrib, is very pleased over what
he called “the phenomenal success’” that this year's
voter registration drive, is experiencing in light of a
post-presidential election “off year.”
NVPIRG hasn’t limited itself to this University,
though. As its name suggests, the New York Public
Interest Research Group is at work all over the stale.
Ail told, Wainrib estimates that at least 10.000
students have been registered statewide including
2,300' at State University of New York at Albany
(23 percent of the undergraduate student body).
Fewer problems are expected this year than last,
when many students received their absentee ballots
late because of the massive number of students
registered. The ballots are expected on time this
*

year.

One major problem has arisen for many of the
local (Erie County) students who wished to register
by mail. Registration by mail had to be received at
the Office of the Board of Elections (BOE) by
October 11. Many registrations were received at the
BOE on October 12 and were rejected.

Depreived right to vote
The people who were rejected still had the
option of registering in person up till October 15,
hut the BOE didn't send out the rejection slips until
the fifteenth. Thus, many of our local students were
deprived of their right to vote, noted Wainrib.
At the time of the interview with Wainrib, one
local resident, Dave Koenig, was on hand for
comment: “I tried (to register). I called the BOE,
but they said they couldn't help me. If they mailed

il a day earlier. I could have registered to vote in
person.”
Wljile Koenig was complaining of the inefficient
procedure. Wainrib was on the phone to the BOE in
an attempt to find another student's registration
card. After being directed from one office to another
and being informed that ncitlier Commissioner was
in that day. he finally wound up speaking to

Lucille
Becker.
Becker claimed il would be
secretary,
very difficult to locate the card because

the BOE is about 10.000 behind in logging and and
coding the cards. Becker admitted that the Board is
severely understaffed.

Heavy impact
When asked what impace the massive student
registration would have on the elections. Wainrib
stated. “The student vote promises to have
enormous impact on all races in the slate. Elections
have been won and lost by a thousand votes. We
have enabled 2,500 people to vole here 10.000
statewide. This will definitely have a significant
impact on many elections.”
Wainrib gave much of the credit for the
enormous success of the registration drive to Ester
Ni/.rachi, the local project coordinator.
if you still haven't registered but wish to do so,
there’s still time, but you’ll have to act quickly.
First, you must mail out your request for an
absentee ballot application (residents of Nassau
County are in luck; NYPIRG has a supply of
absentee application forms). Once you’ve received
the application, it must be filled out and received by
the area Board of Elections by 5 p.m. November 1.

Retraining grant to
develop new courses
Last year, a program of retraining tenured professors was started
with a SUNY Central grant from the Lund for the Improvement of
Post Secondary Kducation. The retraining program is designed to create
new courses that will be interesting and practical for today’s students.
Retraining will afford the University the opportunity to offer new
courses that are in greater student demand.
It is hoped that this program will enhance the educational
environment of the SUNY system by satisfying the needs of both
professors and students. “Many professors might find a class of three or
four unexciting. This is one of several steps being considered for future
faculty development,” said Assistant Vice President for Academic
Affairs, Dr. Calude Welch.
Professors will be chosen for the program according to the
following criteria. First: the candidate must be tenured; second, he
must be a member of any department or program with declining
enrollment; third, a candidate must retrain in a closely related field
with increased enrollment and unsatisfactory staffing; fourth, a
carefully planned program must be developmed in consultation with
members of the candidates future department.

Twelve campuses participating
There are now twelve participating SUNY campuses. Those
campuses being utilized for retraining are responsible for assisting the
trainee and providing an evaluative report on the success of the
trainee’s program.
The trainee’s home campus is expected to provide a full salary
during the retraining period. The maximum grant assistence that a
trainee is eligible for is 55,336.
As of now, there are no specific procedures governing the selection
of candidates for retraining. A memorandum from this University
suggests that a four to six member screening committee be set up. One
half of the committee would be selected by the faculty, and the other
half by the Administration, with a final recommendation made by the
President. Formal structures, however, are likely to vary from onecampus to another.
During the spring of 1978, there will be approximately six
available- grants. The application deadline to SUNY Central is
November I.
For the 1978
79 semester, fifteen grants will be available. Deadlinedate for these applications is February I. 1978.

O.K. A few quick points about the proceedings at the
Inter-Residence Council (IRC), not exactly the most important issue
facing this University, but certainly a subject about which bitter words
have been written in this newspaper, both justified and based on facts
which were not facts.
The foremost and stupidest mistake to be printed was that Scott
Chemick ran for Ellicott Area Council President against Steve Urdegar,
who is Barry Rubin's roommate. Based on that wrong assumption, it
was suggested here that Rubin resign his post on IRC's Elections and
Credentials committee because of an inevitable conflict of interest.
Fact is, Chemick did not run against Urdegar; he ran against David
Hartzband, while Urdegar ran unopposed. Adequate reason, therfore,
was not given to call fdr Rubin's resignation. He admits that he was
wrong to rip down even one campaign poster, and so criticism of him
on that point is justified, but he and IRC Vice-President, Stephanie To the Editor

Anyway, hacks account for a disproportionate
amount of incompletes, dropped courses, cut classes,
lonely roommates, estranged lovers, jobs that have
been quit and a disproportionate amount of concern

Which is not to suggest that hacks are the noble
creatures they might like you to think they are.
Hacks are devious, scheming, vengeful and have been
known to test the truth’s elasticity at times. They
occasionally revert to hack-stabbing. And it is
undeniably true that most hacks want to go to law

�"Serious 7 problems

Guest Opinion
by Arthur O. Eve
I.dilor's noli’: Arthur live is Democratic candidate
for mayor oj HuJJalo.
I offer an invitation and a challenge to the
and universities of Buffalo to form a
meaningful relationship
with Buffalo’s city
government. At the national elvel of government
this country’s colleges and universities have played
a significant role in shaping both domestic and
foreign policy. Harvard, MIT, Columbia and other
Institutions of higher learning have played
significant roles in shaping national policy and
programs. ACthp state level, institutions of higher
education, such as the Maxwell School of Public
Administration, have undertaken basic research
which has provided the basis for policy formation.
Historically in Buffalo this area's colleges and
universities have made an important contribution
to the education of this city’s young people. Now I
ask you to involve yourselves in solving the
problems of Buffalo and Western New York.
Universities and colleges often are hesitant to
become involved in large scale service projects
because they fear they will compromise their
institutional autonomy. However, as institutional
citizens of our city, colleges and universities have
responsibilities which require their involvement. I
would argue that if this area's institutions of higher
education work diligently with my administration
in helping solve this area's severe problems, this
could provide an opportunity to develop a model
of local government and university cooperation
which could have national significance.
In order to encourage the universities and
colleges in this area and their faculties and students
to become involved with the Eve administration, I
shall undertake the following steps:
I) Delegate to a member of my staff the
responsibility to create a talent bank which will
maintain a current inventory of the expertise
available in our local institutions of higher
education. This individual will have the assignment
of actively organizing this area’s faculty as well as
other local experts to assist city staff persons. For
example, each Commissioner in my administration
will be encouraged to have available a list of
faculty members to whom he or she could turn
when questions arise. This network of faculty
advisors throughout the city government could
provide
invaluable
resources to the city
government.
For example, I can foresee faculty members of
the
School of Management assisting my
administration in developing a better budgeting
process. I can see members of the School of
Engineering assisting my staff to examine traffic
patterns and
faculty from the School of
Architecture and Environmental Design working
with my administration to develop neighborhood
planning studies.
2) Explore the feasibility of using the above
talent bank to prepare a series of alternative
futures for the City of Buffalo in a number of areas
ranging from energy problems and economic
colleges

To the Editor:

development to a strategy for improving the
quality of our public schools. These alternative
futures will be offered to me and the public at
large for general debate in order to establish an
agenda for action by my administration.
3) Explore the feasibility of this area’s colleges
and universities undertaking specific research
projects which will furnish hard data to my

administration so that decisions made can be ones
based oh fact and not on intuition or guess.
For example, I might need to have hard data
on the skills of the unemployed before an
appropriate job training strategy can be developed.
Or I might need to know what the effect of various
fiscal policies and programs might be on the city’s
tax base before I decide upon a specific course of
action. To get answers to these kinds of questions I
will look first to this area’s institutions of higher
education. Individuals with special expertise who
teach in our local colleges and universities will be
used as much as possible as consultants or advisors.
Our public dollars should not be used to support
New York City or Washington, D.C. experts if
talent exists here in Buffalo.
4) Explore the feasibility of using the
universities and colleges to develop in-service
training programs for city employees in order to
improve worker productivity and skills. The
implementation of better management techniques
for city employees who are in supervisory positions

means of instituting better
management techniques.

S) Explore the feasibility of establishing a
for Student Interns sponsored by a
consortium of the area's colleges and universities.
This Center could be modeled after the Peace
Corps where selection and training of interns
would be supervised and guided. Too often intern
programs do not have adequate supervision and
there is too little communication among the
student, the faculty advisor and the city
department. This program, properly structured and
operated, could be an asset to our city government
without using the dty taxpayer’s money. It could
serve as a model for all cities who are fortunate
enough to have major colleges and universities like
those in Buffalo within their borders.

Center

Universities and colleges constitute the second
largest industry in Buffalo and Western New York
State. Their faculty and staff represent a
tremendous resource and one whose potential has
yet to be fully tapped. The effective use of this
local talent is of key concern to me. On my part. I
will continue to lobby both in Albany and
Washington to assure that we in Western New York
get our fair share to aid to higher education. I will
go one step further and encourage the development
of an effective coalition of talent from all
institutions of higher education in Western New
York to work with my administration in any way
possible to solve our problems. The total resources
of this city and region must be mobilized and
united in Buffalo and Erie County to rebuild their
economic base and become viable and exciting
places in which to live and work.

For Eve
To the Editor
This letter is in response to the commentary
written by Harold Cold berg, which appeared in The
Spectrum Oct, 19, 1877.
,

Rhetoric is present in this year’s general mayoral
campaign, but it is not to be found in the Eve
campaign. This year’s mayoral election is perhaps the
most critical in Buffalo’s history. For the first time
in years, the Arthur O. Eve campaign affords the

citizens of Buffalo a clear choice.
More than any other candidate. Eve’s legislative
record speaks louder than the mere “rhetoric” that
city editor Harold Goldberg attributes to Eve. Eve’s
proposed policy toward this city’s universities are

readers decide for themselves.
Arthur O. Eve has fought harder than any other
politician in recent Buffalo history to push thru

progressive programs to aid the public schools,
minority groups,
higher education, and the
economically disadvantaged, as well as smashing the
restrictive political machine of Joe Crangle.
Yes, people do make a difference. Eve’s
platform is people. It is truly a vast and beautiful
grass roots organization that everyone is welcome to
join.

Misrepresenting the facts
To the KJitor

I am totally disgusted with The Spectrum's
so-called presentation of the facts of the I.R.C. Area
Council Klections. To begin with, I think The
Spectrum ought to get its facts straight. Scott
Chernick did not run against Steve (Jrdegar, Barry
Rubin's roommate, but rather against David
llartzband. Rubin's roommate ran unopposed.
Therefore, there was no conflict of interest and it
did not violate the spirit of the rules.
The horrendous thing Barry Rubin did was
transfer one poster from an illegal area, a white wall
(according to housing rules, nothing is to be hung on
a white wall), to a legal area, a brick wall. If Scott
Chernick were at the mandatory candidates meeting,
or read the rules for that matter, he would know
that it was illegal in the first place. The transferring
of this poster, in my opinion as K &amp; C Chairperson,
could not alter the results of an area council election
in which he lost by one-third of these votes. It also
amazes me that The Spectrum does not include all
the facts of the election, such as Chemick's
inexcusable behavior in response to the transfer of
his poster. Threatening to “beat the head in” of a
member of the K
C Committee, to me. shows the
mentality of the person we’re dealing with.
To set the record straight, I never told Chernick
in public or private that he deserved another
election. He must have dreamt this. The Spectrum
also claimed I required only one housing list. In fact.
I required three. The S/tectrum's lack of fact and its
innuendos are inexcusable for any kind of
newspaper. I call it libel. What do you call it? Just

I am responding to the letter which appeared in
the October 19th issue of The Spectrum written by
David Lubiner.
Talking in the U.G.L. has caused serious
problems for me, as well as many other students of
this University. For example, last week in the U.G.L.
I was trying to listen to the Yankee game on the
radio. (The reception there is excellent because the
radio waves pass through the detector near the front
doors and filter out the voice of Howard Cossell.)
But it seemed that every time the Yankees were
threatening to score, the din of inconsiderate
students drowned out the radio. Students were
voicing things like, “Who's winning the game?” or
“How’s Jackson doing?” or “What’s the count?” or
“Who stole my shaving cream from the bathroom?”
Needless to say, the game was ruined.
I know of several similar experiences which have
befallen students. A friend of mine was trying to
train his dog in the U.G.L. and because of all the
chatter, the dog became confused. Now the dog will
only come to his master when he says, “How do you

fetch a stick if he says, “What went on in class

�Harriers runners up
in Big Four contest

Soccer

Bulls overtake Bonnies, 6 —2
by Michael Rudny
Staff Writer

by Gene Schwall
Spectrum Staff Writer

Spectrum

Niagara University captured its third straight Big Four Cross
Country Championship last Wednesday with a near perfect score of 18
points. Niagara took the first six places to give them an easy victory
over second-place UB'with 51 points. Buffalo State was third with 71
points and Canisius was last with 80.
The Bulls placed their first four runners .within 42 seconds of one
another and came up with the eighth through the eleventh places.
Bruce Goldstein led the charge with his eighth place finish in 29:08.
John Rycrson was ninth in 29:17. captain Mike Fischer was tenth in
2‘&gt;:22, and Barry Schindler was eleventh in 29:50.
The harriers needed one more scorer, and after a twelfth place
finish for Canisus, Tim Sheehan of UB came across the line in 30:16,
good for thirteenth place. He was quickly followed by Tony Markut
(fourteenth in 30:17). and Greg Freitag (fifteenth in 30:23).
Improvement

The race was held at Niagara University's home course, and the
distance was 5.4 miles. “It was a really hard course. I didn’t get any
chances to rest on a downhill; I had to work the entire race,” said
Buffalo’s Schindler.
Ull’s second-place finish is a big improvement over last year’s
ihird-placc finish. The Bulls are a very young team, and may capture
first in the Big Four meet next year. The Bulls will be losing John
Kyerson. but Niagara will be faced with the loss of three big men.
Coach Waller Gant/, said this about the team’s future: “The winner of
(he race. Jeff Kunn, ran about 5:10 per mile, and that’s really not that
good. We have lire talent here to run that kind of time, and 1 will
institute a tougher summer running program to insure a winning
performance from our guys."
Championship meet
The job for the UB squad will not be any easier in the coming
weeks. The Bulls have a home meet against a perennially tough
Brockporl team this Wednesday at the Amherst Campus. The Canisus
Invitational is slated for October 29 at Delaware Park. The Canisus
meet will feature both a varsity and a junior varsity race. Prizes will be
awarded to the top runners.
The New York State Championship meet is scheduled for
November 5 in Rochester. The Bulls will send a seven-man team to the
17-school race. The final meet will be the IC4A Championship meet at
Van Courtlandt Park in New York City on Monday, November 14. The
IC4A meet will feature such cross-country powerhouses as the
University of Massachusetts and Villanova. vying for the Fast Coast
Cross-Country bragging rights.

Wednesday. Buffalo sooted four
times during the
thirty
minutes of the game and then
breezed to its sixth will in nine
games.
The Bulls came out charging
and scored after only 1:09 had
elapsed in the first half. Striker
Danny Bilka’s low kick bounced
by St. Bonavemure goalie Ross
Bernstein, who had made a tough
stop on a shot by Mark Karrer.
During the next few hiinutes of
play, the Bulls kept the pressure
on. but did not score, as their
attempts were off target. But the
Bulls did not slay off target for
long as pin-point passing and
heads-up play
combined to
produce another goal. Fullback
Mike Allan sent a long head pass
to Karrer at midfield. Karrer then
spotted winger Jim Rudolph
racing downfield and fed him a
perfect pass. Rudolph forwarded a
pass to Bilka along the right
sideline and Bilka sent a long, low
shot past Bernsetin to give Buffalo
a 2 -0 edge.

Buffalo scored again at 29:47
when Bilka received Feeney’s

into the Bonnies’ goal to give the
Bulls a 4-0 advantage.
St. Bonaventure did not seem
to be dismayed and managed to
slip the ball past the Buffalo goal
to cut the margin to 4—1. The
score, which ended Buffalo goalie
Mark Celeste’s bid for shutout
number three of the season, came
just 42 seconds before the end of
the period.
“We started to settle sown and
play the soccer we know how to

Buffalo’s strong showing in the
first half. He attributed his
hat-trick to being in the right

It was Feeney who was at the
right place at the right time during
the second half of play as he

BROCKI’ORT
The consensus seems lo he that
the football Bulls are a young anil inexperienced
team, prone to costly mistakes The Bulls committed
several such mistakes here Saturday, as they
succumbed to Brock port, 17 7. Buffalo's record is
now 0 2 I.
Buffalo's first such costly mistake came late in
the first quarter. A Brockport punt had give Buffalo

then fumbled on his own 16 yard line, and Ihe

pushed Brockport back to the 21 yard line, fullback
Jackie Smith found a gaping hole in the Buffalo
defense and scooted in for six points. Tom C.rable
added the extra point to give Brockport a 7 0 lead.

Brockport scored again in the second quarter,

Later in the second period, Bulls’ defensive end
Jim Granchelli recovered a fumble at the Broekport

Broekport's Joe Molisani moved the ball to the ten
yard line, and then Buffalo halfback Mark Gabryel
scampered around left end for a touchdown. Rich
Phillips kicked the extra point, making the score
15 7.
Buffalo started the second half looking like a
much improved team. Linebacker Gene Maracle
made two key tackles and broke up a third down
pass, forcing Broekport tp punt.
Buffalo took the ball at their 23 yard line and
then put together their best offensive drive of the
year. Passing on almost every play, Buffalo marched
down to the Broekport 12 yard line, as quarterback
Paul DiMiero connected on five out of six passes,
including a 30 yard completion to tight end Tim

How would you like to win a dinner for two at Foil’s, 2443
Niagara Falls Boulevard, worth $35? Or maybe three records from the

Record Theatre?

The Women’s Athletic Department is running a contest, sponsored
by the volleyball team, to find a new nickname for its teams. All you
have to do is think up an appropriate name, fill out the coupon, bring
of mail it to Karen Olsen. 200 Clark Hall by 4:30 p.m. on Thursday,
October 27. and you could be the big winner. Only UB students may
enter, so entries without a student number will nut be considered. In
case of duplicate entries, the one received earliest will be considered
the winner.
it seems that the women don’t like the nickname “Bulls.”
Officially, that nickname only applies to the men’s teams
press
releases regarding women’s spurts never refer to the women as Bulls.
Only The Spectrum referred to them as Bulls, for lack of a better term.
So now the women arc going to have a nickname of their own.
Separate nicknames just for women’s teams are not without precedent:
there are the Cougarettes at Genesee Community, the Orangewomen at
Syracuse, the Lady Macs at Immaculata and a peculiar combination of
gender known as the Lady Statesman at Delta State in Mississippi.
-

Creative titles
There is no need for the new nickname to be connected to the
men’s name (e.g. Orangemen and Orangewomen) as the above
nicknames are. In that case “Bullettes” would win easily. (And for all
you male chauvinists, don’t bother to say ”lf the men are bulls, then
the women must be Cows,” because such humor will not be
appreciated.)
Contests to name things have been particularly successful on
campus. In the spring of 1975, there was a contest to name the Bubble,
Among the many creative entries were The Amherst Igloo, the
Bubble
Hall.
The
Blimp.
Goodrich
Dead
Zeppelin.
l-can’t-believe-it's-a-bubblc Bubble. The War Memorial Bubble. The
Inability Facility and Ralph. The name Ketterpillar was eventually

Creighton and Rose Bowden; and volleyball captain Barbara Staebell.
The winning name and runner-up will be announced Saturday at
the Kg Four volleyball championships, which will begin at Clark Hall
at I p.m.
Here’s your chance to leave your mark on this University. Here's
your chance to do something creative, for a change. And. here’s your
chance to win a dinner for two at a fancy restaurant (I’m not quite sure
if they’ll allow one person to eat both meals, but you can ask). Don’t
blow it. It may be your last chance.
Miscellaneous: I don’t think that O.J. Simpson deserves the
publicity he has been getting for attending the UB-Canisius football
game. Tbere are other valid reasons why the papers should write about
O.J., but this is not one of them. Instead they are taking away space
that might have gone to the two football teams.
I particularly object to a front page story in Thursday’s Reporter
which made it seem as if OJ.’s arrival was the main event and the
football game was merely incidental.
Other than that one story, however, the Reporter’s increased
coverage of camlpus sports and of students in general has been highly
commendable. The change is due primarily to the new leaders at the
Reporter. Jim DeSantis and Bob Marlett. In previous years, one could
read the Reporter without ever getting the impression that there were
students at this university.

PUTTVCAT
LIFE was never meant
to be easy, cool, or classy. One was
meant to learn from experiences; many
of which are negative. We will reap
only long-term benefits from them. No
short-term benefits are forseeable. It
would be easy to say
Life Sucks!,
but I prefer not to. Situations develop
for a reason. Call it fate if you please.
If we view it as a learning experience It
will indeed evolve Into one. Never
should we forget the memories or the
friendship It gave birth to. If our
respective
stars cross similar paths
again In the future this would be nice.
If not, cherish the memories in heart
and mind which we both share;
whether consciously or 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;

The Amherst Campus was
apparently built in violation of
State building code amendments
dealing with facilities for the

The
construction also violated the
spirit of a 1966 announcement by

“Facilities for the Physically

deals generally with plumbing,
electrical wiring, ventilation, air

“other

Violations at Amherst include
ramps, elevators, curbs, water

Bruce Lindsay Beyer, 29 year old Buffalo draft resister and human

Canada just after noon yesterday, Thursday, October 20, and
surrendered quietly to federal authorities at the Peace Bridge. With him

Ford press conference held
by Harold Goldberg
City Editor

a
conference
In
press
conducted Wednesday evening in
the Georgia Room of the Statler
Hilton, former President Gerald
R. Ford announced that he would
endorse Republican candidate
John Phelan for the November
Buffalo mayoral election.
Ford, who was in town to
address the Buffalo Council on
World Affairs, related that in light
of
recent
layoffs in the
Northeastern steel industry he is
in favor of “temporary quotas on

imported steel.” The former
President decried the policies of
foreign steel dumping in the
United States, laying part of the
blame on the country of Japan.
Regarding
President Carter,
recently
who
chastised
oil
companies when his energy bill
was renounced, calling U.S. oil
monopolies “the world’s greatest
ripoffs,” Ford commented that
“Carter’s relations with the Senate
are in a shambles. 1 don’t know
how he got himself into that
position.”

Ford stipulated that he does not
believe arbitrary quotas are the
answer to the equality question.
“I’ve read Mr. Cox’ brief which is
now before the Supreme Court
and he seems to come out in the
middle
of
the
issue. But
throughout my administration, I
had
strongly
supported
the
concept of affirmative action.”

�Correction
A regrettable typographical error appeared in Part II of the
series on Bruce Beyer’s exile, written by Contributing Editor
Corydon Ireland (The Spectrum, Wednesday, October 17). The
clause midway down the second column (“they’re hostile to
males”) should be a phrase which reads, “there hostile to males”
a reference to the character of the women’s movement in Sweden in
the spring of 1972. The version which appeared transforms a simple
historical reference into a vulgar, wrongheaded opinion. The
Spectrum staff apologizes.

Barry Commoner, a nationally-known biologist
and ecologist, presented two lectures dealing with
the energy problem and environmental carcinogens
(cancer-causing agents), on Wednesday.
The first lecture, sponsored by the New York
Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) and the
Student Association (SA) Speakers Bureau, dealt
with the economic and environmental feasibility of
the Carter Energy Plan. Commoner, best known for
his books, “Science and Survival,” “The Closing
Circle,” and “Poverty of Power,” proposed several
innovative methods to the Carter Plan for dealing
with the energy crisis.
The second lecture, sponsored by Rachel Carson
College and the Division of Environmental and Manufacturing carcinogens

a crime is it to lose onelThe other day, I was at this corner
grocery store. As I was waiting to be checked out, I saw a
fellow human being murdered all because of a lost jar of
salad dressing.
Can you imagine this little guy. maybe six years old,

father is huge; he corners his son, blocking the door.
Across the counter slouches the storeowner who keeps

The father interrogates his son, repeatedly asking him.
“Are you sure you returned itIWhat did you do with it?”
The little kid is confused; he can’t even defend himself
with a coherent sentence. As he shrinks smaller and
smaller, his father looms larger. This small boy stands there
trembling. Can you see the sweat on his forehead?
At last, the scene ends... but in violence. Father
becomes executioner. Thebig man pulls out his ring of
keys and flashes it like a blackjack, smashing his son's
forehead three or four times. He hits him hard, too. Take
that! Take that! Take that for losing my salad dressing!
Oddly enough, the kid’s face is expressionless, his eyes
empty, dead but not yet glazed over. This has happened to
him before; he is used to it! As for me, my forehead is
stinging and I am wondering: what will happen to this
little guy when his father gets him horaeWhat kind of life
does this kid have?

The Natural Science and Technology Facility
Nuclear Reactor Shutdown was closed because of
potentially leaky radiation piping, according to
Associate Director of the facility Martin Haas.
The reactor, closed on October 7, will remain
shut down for approximately three months while the
piping is being replaced, and the facility is
replenishing its exhausted fuel supply.
Haas explained that although the piping is being
replaced, the leaking radiation posed no threat to
anyone. “The radiation,” he said, “was well below
standards set for radiation in drinking water.” Haas
explained that the new piping was also implemented
to assure that the facility would be able to fulfill its
“long-range commitments,” which include an
on-going experiment for the Nuclear Regulatory
Commission (NRC).
Haas said the refueling aspect of the shutdown
was necessitated because “we haven’t needed any
fuel since 1963.” He added that the new supply is
expected to last “at least until 1993.”
The fuel that is used for the reactor is Uranium
Dioxide, a radio-active substance which, in its
delivered state, is neither harmful nor easily turned
into something destructive, such as a bomb. ‘The
stories you hear about that,” stated Haas, “are using
poetic license (rather than scientific fact). It just
isn’t that easy.” Even though building a bomb isn’t
easy, the fuel is secretly stored and kept under heavy

'Best time for shutdown.’
Haas termed the possibility of the reactor
exploding “impossible” and,said it was as probable
as “a plastic toy exploding.” “Just like a toy and
plastic, explosives are made out of basically the same
material, (so are the reactor and the atomic
weapons) it takes a whole lot more to make an
explosion. If it wasn’t safe they wouldn’t have let us
have it.”
Haas termed the shutdown as coming at “the
best possible time," since the facility usage is now at
its low point of the year and the experimentation for
the NRC has not started.
“The reactor, which supplies nuclear isotopes
for this University and others, is among the top ten
university based nuclear facilities in the nation,” said
Haas. Among its long-ranged projects, Haas
explained, is an experiment which tests the
possibility of restoring vessels for atomic power
plants through a process called “annealing.” Each
vessel costs upwards of $100 million, and advances
which have occurred or could occur could save
billions in the long run, he said. The facility is also
used as i touring site by many elementary and high
school students.
Haas expressed hope that the reactor would be
operable again in three months. “We have to live up
to our license,” Haas said.

West German commandos, hurling special flash grenades, rescued
86 hostages taken by Arab terrorists who hijacked a Lufthansa plane
shortly after its takeoff from Palma de Majorca, forcing it to land in
Mogadishu, Somalia. In the melee, the German commandos killed three
of the four hijackers. Hours after the rescue, three of the eleven
imprisoned West German terrorists whose releases had been demanded
by the four hijackers in exchange for the lives of the passengers and
crew, reportedly committed suicide in their prison cells.

“Citizens of what country?”
“How long will you be in Canada?”
These are familiar questions to anyone who has driven to visit
America’s northern neighbor over the Peace Bridge. The 5,800 foot
span, connecting Buffalo with Fort Erie, Ontario, is the largest single
crossing point between the United States and Canada.
This year marks the 50th year of the Bridge’s existence. It opened
for public traffic back on June 1st, 1927 and dedication ceremonies
were held two months later on August 7th. It was no small event
many internationally known dignitaries were on hand to officially open
the bridge. Approximately 20,000 Buffalonians came to see His Royal
Highness Prince Edward of Wales, his brother Prince George, Charles C
Dawes, Vice President of the United States, Stanley Baldwin, Prime
Minister of Great Britian, Secretary of State Frank B. Kellog, W.l

Coast to coast
The event was covered by the media throughout the world and the
first international coast-to-coast radio broadcast was sent to an
estimated 50 million listeners. Graham McNamee, the leading
announcer of the time, handled the coverage for the National
Broadcasting Company. It also reached distant points in Europe via
General Electric’s short wave length stations at Schenectady.
Simple ceremonies on the Canadian Plaza and at the center of the
Bridge were followed by the large one o.n the U.S. Plaza. The
happening marked the first time a prime minister of Great Britian had
visited the United States during his tenure in officfe. AJso„it was the
first official visit to America of the Prince of Wales representing the
British crown.
This past summer, on August 7th, to celebrate the
anniversary, the bridge was rededicated with the presentation of
placques on both sides. A long line of antique cars also crossed over the
bridge to commemorate the occasion.
Peaces

Today’s bridge is basically the same as it was when first completed.
The builders were not only wise, they were also lucky. They could not
have predicted the population and economic growth of the two
countries, and especially the increase in tourism and commercial trafficover the years. The bridge is still capable of handling the tremendous
flows of traffic; over 170 million crosses since 1927.

Blitz is on
Most of the time, it is up to the individual guard to decide whether
or not a vehicle should be allowed to pass. This is true unless there is a
“blitz” on, which occurs when cars are pulled over for inspection more
frequently for some reason, like an informant tipping border officials
off of a “smuggler” who might be coming through during a certain
period of time.
So, when coming back from Canada it is smart not to upset the
guard. He doesn’t know about all those cases of Molson’s stashed in the
trunk, so play it cool and don’t make yourself seem too suspicious.
Don’t cross the border “under the influence” and if you have relatively
long hair, either comb it neatly or, better yet, tuck it under a hat. And
when you’re asked the two questions at the beginning of this article,
don’t answer, “I’m from Argentina and have been living in Canada for
thirty-five years.” Remember, border inspectors at the Peace Bridge
have over 50 years of history to fall back on.

A person visiting Canada usually has to return. When he does he
faces questions by either a United States Customs or Immigration
official. Both departments have staffs operating at or near the bridge.
By the way, before being questioned, one has to pay a toll. In 1927,
tolls for an automobile was 25 cents. It was increased to 35 cents in
1970, as it stands today.

Consequently, the academic world feels that the

reaction of the candidates for Mayor, however,
shows that this belief is not universally shared.

No Bakke blast

The Conservative Party candidate, State Senator
James D. Griffin, refused to make any comment on
this case. At first, he refused to discuss any aspect of
the case because he felt he “couldn’t give an
adequate answer over the phone.” He then
responded to an offer to rectify the situation by

being interviewed in person, at his convenience, by
hanging up the phone.
Donald L. Turchiarelli, the Liberal Party
candidate for Mayor, was more honest and sincere in
his comments. He stated that he had “never heard of
the case before and, consequently, could not
comment on

it.”

Faculty responds to
issues in Bakke case
by Jim Safee
Spectrum Staff Writer

The case of Alan Bakke vs. The
Board
the
of Regents of
University of California, which is
now being decided in the U.S.
Supreme Court, has been the
subject of considerable debate and
controversy. Just about everyone
from the American Federation of
Teachers to the Sons of Italy has
given their views on the case. We
decided to let some administrators
and faculty mefhbers here at the
University air their own personal
opinions on
the matter. The
following people were asked their
views on the Bakke case and
affirmative action programs in
action
general.
Affirmative
programs make adjustments in
regard to criteria related to the
curriculum of certain programs in
order to give minorities and other
disadvantaged groups a fair chance
to achieve the education they
desire.
Dean for Minority
Assistant
Affairs &lt;S Financial Aid for the
School
of Medicine, Rudy
Williams:

“The big thing that I would
like to say about the Bakkc case is

that it is a bad case to be before
Supreme Court. I know
the
preferential admissions is nothing
new. In fact, in the Hipocratic
Oath, which medical students take
upon graduation, in its pure form,
indicates that physicians will
their own sons and
educate
daughters firstly, which in itself is
preferential treatment.

It, is about as realistic to
believe as it is to believe that
minorities will catch up to the
main

without something extra. There is
no way to bring an individual to
the starting line, unbuckle his

Associate Dean for the School of
Dentistry Dr. Richard Powell.
“The Bakke case is a no-win,

situation.

Whatever the

decision, it will be wrong for some
segments of our total society.”
Acting Dean of the School of
Pharmacy Dr. Daniel Murray:

that criteria for
“1
admissions into such academic
programs, especially professional
programs, need broadening. Other
criteria based on societies’ needs
must also be considered. The
affirmative
program is
action
toward that goal.”

History Department Chairman Dr.
Clifton Yearley:
“My first impression is that
this case is not likely to be a
landmark decision. I suspect that
the Court will be prudent, that it

would follow a conservative line
in the sense that it will judge this

case on a restricted legalistic basis.
“The reason that I suspect this
to be true is that this is a highly
charged political issue which the
Court, at this point, does not have
to address. Probably the Court
to leave such a
will prefer
troubled
set
of
issues
to
legislatures: probably the Court
will therefore take a longer view

■'

The response (or lackof it) of these men to the
Bakke case indicates a number of things. Firstly, the
candidates feel that there is not much interest in
Bakke outside qf the University community. If they
believed otherwise, the politicians could be expected
to see the opportunity to score political points and
be more than willing to dismiss it.
It can be, assumed that had the candidates
obtained sufficient knowledge of the case, they may
have been still, unwilling to comment on it. In
case, is a “no-win”
politics, an issue like
proposition. Any comment a candidate would
attempt to make would Ipse as many votes as it
would gain, and could' conceivably give his
opposition valuable ammunition.
Finally, the passive reaction of the candidates to
the Bakke case can be attributed to the fact that the
controversy is presently a judicial, not political one.
Since the case is now before the Supreme Court, any
comment that any political figure would make, of
course, would be irrelevant to the outcome of the
case
Should they comment?
While all these implications tend to support the
non-reaction of the candidates, there is one aspect of
the case that would seem to make a political
comment appropriate. If the court decides to
determine the case on broad Constitutional grounds,
the effect would reach beyond the boundaries of the
universities of the nation. Affirmative action
programs in employment, delegate selection and
other non-academic fields would also be affected.
Whether the Mayoral candidates know this or not,
the Supreme Court ruling in this case will probably
have an effect on city government.
If the Bakke case does not turn out to be a
definitive decision, similar cases (such as the Clanly
case) will follow until this controversy is settled. It is
the issue at stake, not the particulars of the case that
is important. Unfortunately, the candidates for the
office of Mayor do not seem to realize this.

Look who's to blame

A considerable amount of consternation exists over
exactly what transpired at the 10 Card Committee meetings
of the last year and a half. All we are sure of is that 25,000
ID cards without signatures, without dates of birth, without
addresses were distributed to students at this University.
Cards not containing these pertinent items of information
are a waste of precious University funds, and are useless.
The reason it is difficult, almost impossible, for us to
discern the intentions of the Committee is because no one,
neither administrators nor students, seems capable or willing
to divulge the whole truth. Three administrators who
participated in the decision explain that everyone on the
Committee agreed that students' signatures would appear on
the card while the Chairman of the Committee, Director of
Admissions and Records (A&amp;R) Richard Dremuk proffers
that the body decided "by vote" not to include said
information. Top officials from the Student Association
(SA) pledged their innocence of the matter, yet now admit
that a member of the present administration was indeed
present at the final meeting, knew what the card would look
like, ahd said nothing to the student press in an effort to
affect change.
§o who's guilty? It would seem, when first considered,
that students are, for participating in a committee decision
that rendered useless cards. However, students who attended
the meetings have steadfastly maintained that upon voicing
their protest concerning the card's proposed design, they
were told either that they had no say in the matter or that
the decisions had previously been made by other students. If
this is true, there would seem no doubt but that students
were forced to take or leave a useless card.
Administrators on the Committee denied students'
charges, claiming that students had the power to make
changes yet were satisfied with the design. However, this
contention was undermined when a representative from
A&amp;R maintained Wednesday that when alterations in the
card's design were necessitated in the summer, "no one was
there to approve the changes:"
Nothing could be further from the truth. No less than six
committee members were in Buffalo at the time and hence
were available to ratify the changes. So it now appears that
students were indeed truthful in their claims that they were
held powerless to affect changes and that A&amp;R took it upon
itself to assume responsibility for alterations in the card's
design without bothering to inform Committee members of
the changes. If such is the case, and there is compelling
evidence to substantiate that possibility, then students and
administrators alike need look no further than Annex C,
where A&amp;R resides, to find the culprits who wasted
thousands of University dollars, caused incessant bickering,
and brought us essentially useless cards.

We are presently inmates at the Attica

this letter and hoping that you will choose to publish
it in your campus paper.
To an inmate, receiving correspondence plays a
vital role in helping to relieve the monotony and
boredom of being incarcerated. However, to inmates

such as ourselves with no family or close relatives,
the
letters that mean so much are almost
non-existent. In an effort to change this we are

IRC facts ail wrong
To the Editor.

In opening Wednesday’s The Spectrum,
immediately I turned to the editorial section as I
always do. I’ve found that Brett Kline and I agree on
many things, and I usually find his editorials
interesting and to the point. This is why I was
shocked in reading the “Resign” section of this
editorial. It was in Brett’s usual to the point style

but the facts were all wrong.
The thing that immediately struck me as strange
was the statement that Scott Chernick ran against
Barry Rubin’s roommate. Since Barry Rubin lives in
Wilkeson, and I live in Richmond, and I was the only
person running against Scott, this does not seem
possible. Barry Rubin’s roommate ran for treasurer
and was unopposed.
Immediately I called Brett and asked him why
he wrote that. He replied that he got his information
from Harvey Shaprio’s article, which was in the same
issue.
The editorial also asks the question: “What right
did Barry Rubin have to tear down Scott’s posterT
At the time it seemed pretty clear that Scott was
putting up his posters illegally, and as an E&amp;C
official Barry simply instructed Scott where he could
legally put up his posters, to this Scott replied
something like, “Shut the fuck up or I’ll beat the

shit our of you,” and then Scott went on to
challenge Barry to disqualify him. Given the fact
that this was about 2:30 a.m. the night before the
election, Barry felt he had every right to move the
poster,

and

the time so did everyone else,

at

including E&amp;C chairperson Stephanie Freund, who
made the only logical ruling.
After reading the editorial I went on to read the
article by Harvey Shapiro to which Brett had
referred earlier. Once again the article began with the

allegation that “Steve Urdager” ran against Chernick
1 cannot understand how a reporter can base an
article of this caliber, on a totally false statement. If
a resignation is called for here it should be Harvey
Shapiro’s.
Later in the article Mr, Shapiro went on to
quote Stephanie falsely, which she confirmed to me
Stephanie never said that “Chernick may have been
wronged” and she never said that he deserved a new
election.

The truth is that Scott Chernick should never
have been alloweo to run, not because he couldn’t
attend the mandatory meeting, but because he never
informed anyone that he wasn’t coming.
I would just like to conclude by saying that
these people are students. They do their job the best
they can, and they shouldn’t be criticized every time
their is a slight discrepancy in their statements, and
their every move should not be analyzed. Barry
Rubin has received a lot of heat, and it all stems
from his spending a lot of money on IRC weekend
movies which he did in the best interest of the IRC
feepayer. Barry was forced to estimate what IRC’s
budget would be. At that time he thought money
was coming in from IRCB, which surprisingly is not
the case. I could sympathize with him because I do
programming for SA and I know it has to be done
way in advance. So let’s stop knocking Barry, in the
same right we should stop knocking Stephanie; she
has been doing her best all along, and she did what
she thought best with the Sheriff’s ID’s and that’s all
we could ask of anyone. Anytime you have an
organization that looses one third of its budget there
are bound to be problems; let’s not add to them.

Student Association

The semester’s first Student Association (SA)
Senate meeting was held Thursday, October 13. The
meeting opened with a report from SA President
Dennis Delia that addressed several areas of SA
involvement. Delia first cited a guarantee from the
University Central Administration about room space
in Squire Hall for student organizations. It stipulates
that the present occupants of Squire cannot be
relocated to the Amherst campus unless room is
available in Talbert Hall, the student activity and
academic complex. However, it is likely that student
dubs will remain in Squire for at least two more
years.

stressed that if the Housing office can break
students’ contracts by placing extra persons in dorm
rooms, students should be allowed the option to
leave the dormitory without financial penalty.
Along with the Student Association of the State
University (SASU) delegates on this campus, Delia
said SA is working to repeal the recently
implemented twelve dollar Health Fee. He concluded
with a report on SA’s attempt to extend the
“Resigned (R)” deadline. The Academic Affairs Task
Force will be meeting with the Division on
Undergraduate Advisement on the matter.
SA Executive Vice-president and chairman of

�Suicide responsibility

Self inflicted Amherst

To the Editor.
My sister attends the School of Nursing at UB
and was greatly distraught at the tragic suicide of
one of her fellow nursing students. Though it is
being played down by the administration, the blame
can rest on the conscience of the faculry.
This year, due to a new curriculum change,
students are being subjected to undue excessive
stress and mental anguish. The faculty appears to be
oblivious to the fact that the spirits of these students
are being broken by the tremendous workload.
Though the young woman who committed
suicide may have had other personal problems, not
apparent to fellow classmates or faculty, it is the
belief of many of her peers that the stress placed
upon her by the curriculum attributed to her death.
If changes are to be made, it is very sad that it took
the death of such a young person to open the eyes of
such “highly educated and professional people.”

The result is easy to forsee
new forms of
discrimination and a two standard faculty: those who have
made it strictly on their own, selected by their professional
peers in open competition, and those who have made it by
virtue of membership in some group. (Hook, Sidney, ‘The
Bias in Anti-Bias Regulations”)
There are several assumptions in this argument that
merit examination. ‘Those who have made it strictly on
their own” are predominantly white men. Therefore, so
are their professional peers. We can assume that the author
is not suggesting that there is anything inherent in being
white and male that qualifies a person for academic
excellence. It is essential to ask how many of these people
would have achieved this standard of performance had
they been black and/or female. It is then, at least partially
because of their sex and race that these people are where
they are. So the argument that they have made it “strictly
on their own” is false.
It is necessary to examine the seemingly objective v
criterion of academic excellence. “The distance between
where a minority student started and where he or she is
today is more significant than a comparison with others
who had no headwind to'overcome.” (O’Neil, R.M., ‘The
Case for Preferential Admissions”) For example, take a
black student who grew up in the ghetto and attended
inferior schools and managed to graduate from college
with a 3.5 cumulative average. In comparing that student
to a white student whose father is a lawyer and who
attended expensive prep schools and graduates from
Harvard College with a 3.7. who shows more academic
promise? This poses the question of whether equal
opportunity itself is discriminatory under circumstances in
which the effects of past discrimination are incorporated
in the current capabilities of individuals.
Archibald Cox argues that intellectual ability is but
one of several criterion used to determine admissions. Cox
states that a diverse student body is essential to maintain
academic excellence and that a black student can usually
bring something a white student cannot offer. Thus, it is
not because minorities and women are lacking in
something that they are offered preferential admissions;
rather, this is done on the basis of what they can
contribute.
A qualified white student is denied admission to a law
school because a lesser qualified minority student is
admitted - at least so goes the argument. There'are at least
two other possible explanations for this denial. One is that
the people doing the hiring (probably white men, since, as
Hooks tells us, only one percent of faculty is black) can
see government pressure as the only legitimate reason to
hire a woman or a black over a white man. The other
possible explanation is that affirmative action programs are
being used to hide retrenchment; rather than say there is
insufficient money to hire, university officials shift the
blame to minorities and women. After all, the premise of
“reverse discrimination” is wholly based on scarcity; it
would not even be an issue if there was enough money and
and facilities to admit and hire all qualified people.
In summary, those opposing affirmative action
programs argue that the programs are unjustified because
they adversely affect white men, they use sex and race as
criteria, and the best qualified people are not selected for
positions. All of this when only one percent of university
faculties are black. It is difficult to accept the argument
that affirmative action programs have been abused, that is,
have discriminated against white males, when there is little
evidence of increased numbers of minorities and women in

”

On February 22, 1977 the Supreme Court agreed to
review the case of Alan Bakke, a student who was denied
admission to the University of California at Davis Medical
School. Bakke claimed that he was a victim of “reverse
discrimination,” arguing that students with averages and
test scores lower than his were admitted to the school
because of a minority admissions program. Bakke states
that his race
denied him admission, i.e. “reverse

discrimination.”

Although the Supreme Court began hearing the case
October 12, 1977, lengthy debate has surrounded this
issue in other quarters. The debate has centered around
whether affirmative action programs are unfair in their
treatment of majority students and applicants. Affirmative
action is the plan for rectifying past discrimination against
minorites and women. This usually takes the form of some
kind of preferential treat nent or special consideration due
to a person’s life experiences. The focus has been on
admissions and luring pojicies in higher education although
tbe ramifications extend beyond this area.
The concept of “reverse discrimination” assumes that
if preferential treatment is afforded minorities and women,
it must be done at the expense of white men. White men
become victims of “discrimination” since, because of their
sex and race, they are not treated in an equal manner with
minorities and women.
The question becomes: Are we perpetuating the same
thing we are trying to eliminate by having affirmative
action programs?
Those claiming “discrimination” against white males
by affirmative action programs argue that it is false to
assume that we can end past discrimination by instituting
new policies that also “discriminate,” i.e. give preferential
treatment to minorities and women.
The critics of affirmative action who argue that it
perpetuates the very practice that we are trying to
eliminate claim that it is wrong both constitutionally and
morally. The fourteenth amendment to the Constitution
guarantees equal protection under the law. This means,
according to these critics, that no one may be denied
access to opportunity in this society because of his or her
race. This stems from the belief that all forms of
discrimination are equally wrong.
If we are to extend this line 'of thought to its
conclusion, we must then assume that the answer lies in a
benign neutrality, never taking sex and race into account
as factors. Yet, as Taylor argues: “Being black was made a
morally relevant characteristic by those who used it to
discriminate against black people,” (Taylor, Paul W.,
“Reverse Discrimination and Compensatory Justice,”
Analysis, June 1973) Certainly it was not black people or
women who argued for differentiation on the basis of race
and sex. By saying that these factors are now irrelevant,
the proponents of this argument are in effect calling for
the maintenance of the status quo. The inequalities are
already there; people have always been classified by sex
and race.
Another crucial assumption is that employers are able
and willing to use objective standards for determining
relevant qualifications - that they have access to and can
follow non-sexist and non-racist criteria . . . Blacks and
females may feel, quite understandably, that in order for
them not to be discriminated against, they must be
discriminatingly

favored.

“The fact that only one percent of university faculties
and five point four percent of four year college faculties
are black is no evidence that today active discrimination
against qualified blacks exists, and that it is five times as
strong in the universities as in the colleges.” (Hook,
Sidney, “The Bias in Anti-Bias Regulations”)

social phenomenon,
discrimination be defined.
“Reverse discrimination” as a concept negates the
institutionalized oppresssion of women, third world,
working class and gay people. It implies that our society
allows for equal and quality access for women socially,
economically and politically, but that sometimes it makes
a few mistakes.
Discrimination is an historical and systematic practice
by those with power against those without it. In order for
one group, A, to be able to discriminate against another
group, B, A must have the ability to make decisions
adversely affecting B and the means to enforce those
decisions. In America today, and throughout our history,
it is white men who have had that power. It is absurd,
therefore, under our present social system, to think that
minorities and women can make decisions and enforce
them against white mfen.
Separating discrimination fromoppression leads to a
whole set of misleading arguments. For example. Hooks
states: “Over representation of a certain group is by itself
not proof of favorable discrimination: no one would
seriously accuse the Metropolitan Opera of past
discrimination in favor of tenor singers from the
Mediterrean area. (Hook, Sidney, ‘The Bias in Anti-Bias
Regulations”) The methodology of this sort of social
science assumes that we are all equal competitors in a free
and open market. It denies the existence of social systems
that operate to benefit one group over another. By taking
discrimination out of the context of social reality, social
scientists are able to ignore the oppression of Third World
people and women in America. It is abstracted to a point
where the concept becomes meaningless.
This problem of not looking at what has happened to
lead to the present inequalities is rampant in the arguments
against affirmative action. Hook quotes from a 1965 study
of women who received Ph.D.’s in 1957-58. The study
asked women what they saw as major career obstacles.
Twelve percent listed employer discrimination, 18 percent
the inability to find adequate help at home, 12 percent
husband’s job mobility, and 4 percent husband’s attitude.
Hook concludes from this information that since 88
percent cited factors other than employer discrimination it
is wrong to place the burden on universities to rectify this
situation. It is agreed that more than fair employment
practices are necessary to remedy this situation. However,
Hook is using these statistics to prove that discrimination
does not exist; he sees them as personal problems. Yet,
those very circumstances define exactly what the
oppression
of women
means. This inability or
unwillingness to place people’s lives in a social context is
central to the position that “reverse discrimination” exists.
If we continue to follow Hooks’ argument, we can
assume one ot three things: that blacks are innately
incapable of being university faculty; that there are not
sufficient numbers qualified or that there still exists active
discrimination. The first not being worthy of comment,
the second two can only be explained by recognition of
the historic and systematic oppression that has led to the
present situation.
When a minority student or a woman is admitted to a
university or a graduate is hired under an affirmative
action program, the quality of the class or faculty is
lowered because the best qualified person was not chosen.
Aside from “discrimination” against white men, this is the

faculties.

Not one person who pointed out what she or he saw
as weaknesses in affirmative action programs offered
another solution to the problem of the oppression of Third
World People and women arid the ensuing discrimination
in our universities. Unless of course we consider the

do-nothing-and-keep-your-fingers-crossed-approach

as

a

solution. It is necessary to conclude therefore that these
objections are a smoke screen for other issues. It is true
that those who are the beneficiaries of an unjust social
order will consider its alteration to be yet another injustice
from the personal point of view, but this cannot be helped.
The process of changing our society to a more egalitarian
one does challenge male and white privilege. This is not
“discrimination,” however, it is justice.

Racist rape charge
To the Editor:

%
1 am writing this letter to you from within the
confines of the Erie County Correctional Facility at
Alden, just outside of Buffalo, N.Y. As the enclosed
fact states, I was sentenced to a term of seven
months for an alleged violation of probation.
For nearly two years I have been struggling to
vindicate myself of the false charges perpetuated by
.

_

.

racist and reactionary! forces here in Buffalo.
Throughout the course of this struggle I have been
very fortunate in -being able to enlist the aid of
progressive people from &gt;across the country. I feel
this is because of the obvious implications that my
particular case has in relation to all poor and
v

oppressed people everywhere.

There can be no diminishing the traumatic and
devastating effect that rape has on women who
become victims. I share the serious concerns of
women and other people of conscience over this
violent and heinous crime. However, none of us
should diminish the significance of the historical
tradition of the racist use of the rape charge to
oppress black men either. My case along with such
cases as that of the Scottsboro nine, Thomas
Wansley and Delbert Tibbs are all classic examples of
rape and racism.
The problem with the phenomenal rise in the
number in rapes occurring is bad enough, especially
since the rate at which rapist are apprehended and
convicted has decreased. Yet there has always been a
most serious problem, when interracial rape is the

as is my own. ■ The problem being that
interracial rape, in the event that the victim is white
and the alleged assailant is black, incites the most
vicious racist attitudes in our society. Hence the
situation often develops that police set out to get a
convenient scapegoat to answer for the crime. The
only requirement is that he is black.
It is in this type of atmosphere that I was
framed and railroaded. Not because I committed the
crimes, the authorities here are well aware that I
didn’t. It is because I am a black man, who like
most, is poor and oppressed. Being such, it is usually
easy for them to carry out a frameup. It is easy
because of the collusion which exists between the
police, the courts, the DA and much of the news
media. Consequently many innocent black men have
been lynched, murdered, incarcerated and forgotten
about. Fortunately, through the dedicated work of
my defense committee and my other supporters, 1
have not been forgotten. I have not been forgotten
because my struggle is part of the continuous
struggle for freedom, justice and equality for all poor
and oppressed people.
People have not been deceived by the
smokescreen of racism used to cloud the real issues
in my case. From the outset the political overtones
of my arrest and the events that followed have been
met with the political answer of the people, “BY
DEFENDING KENNETH JOHNSON. WE ARE
DEFENDING OURSELVES!!!"
As a result I have become a political threat. A
thorn in the side of various officials here, making my
removal from the streets a political necessity. They
have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars to
perpetuate their frameup with hopes that my
incarceration would destroy my spirit and break the
back of the movement.
Instead my incarceration has served to
strengthen me physically, mentally and spirituallly. I
am relentless in my determination to be free, and to
expose those who have conspired against me. As for
the movement, it grows in its intensity daily, as more
and more people learn of the outrageous injustices I
have suffered.
I said this letter with hopes that it will enlist
your aid in my struggle. I am in the process of
appealing the convictions, which will mean more
time, energy and moiiey. Already my legal expenses
exceed $25,000, and a new trial could add as much
at $10,000 to that figure. I am in urgent need of
your financial support to help defray these
exhorbitant legal costs. Your support is also needed
in whatever you can do to help me to bring pressure
and to inform other people and organizations which
might help.
My confinement in this institution has only
remforced my firm belief that there is very little
difference in here, than out there. The bars and the
walls which hold me prisoner merely take different
forms on the outside. They take the form of welfare,
unemployment, poor housing and others. I will never
be really free nor will any oppressed person, until
the bars are removed completely. This can only
happen through a united and determined effort on
the part of people of conscience everywhere.
I sincerely hope that you will lend your support
to this struggle and I am confident that we will be
victorious in the end. In unity, solidarity and the
spirit of struggle,

always attributed these changes to the 1970 Carnegie
Commission report which predicted an acute
shortage of doctors, and not to the militant black
struggles that challenged those ruling powers. It
turned out that the concessions that were wrested by
the black struggles began to add on to the wealth of
the elitist medical profession. For example, Medicare
and Medicaid went to serve not the elderly and the
poor but to the already soaring doctor and hospital
fees.

Now in the seventies, the government has been
trying to reverse even the minor concessions that
were extracted of it by the ghetto rebellions of the

sixties. We should see the role of AM A as part of this
trend. Once again, the basis of AMA’s actions is
another Carnegie Commission report issued in 1976,
that has proclaimed the existence of a surplus of
doctors: “In the face of rapid expansion in the
supply of physicians graduating from existing
schools, we are in serious danger of developing too
many medical schools.” So in 1970 there was a
shortage and in 1976 it hasJbecome a surplus! It is
instructive to see how the Carnegie Commission
determines the shortages and surpluses of doctors.

underlines the bankruptcy of the elitist policies of
the American Medical Association fAMAf and more
irhporiantly of the American capitalist system which
determines the character of the present situation.
History of AMA's elitist policies: The tendencies
towards professionalism in medicine, or more
appropriately, towards medical monopoly got a firm
foundation in 1910, when the Carnegie Foundation
came up with the Flexner Report. Abraham Flexner
and Dr. Nathan Colwell (of the AMA’s newly formed
Council on Education) inspected every medical
scHbol in 1910; the result was that 92 schools either
merged or went out of business and most of the
others raised their entrance requirements. The
upgrading of medical science was probably the less
important consequence of Flexner Report. But the
more decisive consequence was the tighter control of
AMA-AAMC leading to training of fewer and fewer
physicians for the future American society. As a
result, starting from 150 doctors per 100,000 people
in 1900, the country’s available doctors declined to
128 per 100,000 in 1930. Medical profession became
medical monopoly and consequently a seller’s
market in healthcare.
In 1932, another AMA appointed Commission
on Medical Education with Harvard President Lowell
as its chairman claimed that the profession was
suffering from an oversupply of doctors. The only
problem, according to this report, was a geographical
maldistribution of doctors and a tendency towards
specialization. For three decades, till the late sixties,
AMA used the viewpoint to prevent all efforts to
increase the supply of doctors.
The ghetto rebellions in the sixties, in Harlem,
Chicago, Detroit, East Los Angeles, etc., against
racist oppression were the main factor that forced
the government to open up more jobs and
educational opportunities for minorities. Hospitals
were built, Medicare and Medicaid programs were
instituted, and minorities were admitted into
medical schools. As mentioned in the first part of
the article, the non-minorities benefited more by
these changes. The total number of medical schools
grew from 88 in 1960 to 117, while the available
first year openings increased from 9000 to 16,000. It
may be noted here that the U.S. ruling powers have

incomes the highest. Only when the people struggled
demanding changes, particularly the blacks, did these
policies change at least temporarily. So it is not the
inferior minorities who are crowding Bakke out of
the American medical schools. But it is the elitist
policies of the AMA that re denying Bakke and
thousands of others, non-minority and minority,
male and female, all adequately qualified students,
the possibility of becoming doctors.

Now it becomes imperative to understand the
significance of the cries of reverse discrimination
that have been generated in support of Bakke. The
meek defense in the courts put up by U.C. at Davis
and the U.S. Government in support of the principle
of affirmative action, should be making it clear to
everyone that neither of them have any real stakes if
the “Bakke” decision of the lower court is to be
upheld. But to most of us the impact of such an
eventuality is obvious. A decision in favor of Bakke
would result in the reversal of every small gain
achieved through the persistent struggles of the last
twenty years by the minorities and women in
particular, and American people in general. It is this
new reality which the U.S. ruling powers want to
create, which is being hidden under the smokescreen
of reverse discrimination.
Compounding this crisis of U.S. economy and
intensifying it, is the phenomena of emerging

etc.

a

crucial fact. If was not the god-given wisdom of the
Supreme Court or of the Republican/Democratic
governments, that opened up for the people socially
profitable opportunities such as in education, health
care, etc. It was the mass struggles of the American
people, blacks in particular, that compelled the U.S.
ruling powers to make these concessions. Now it is
the same mass actions that can prevent the Supreme
Court from sanctifying the argument of reverse
discrimination. And if the Supreme Court should
uphold the “Bakke” decision, it is the same mass
struggles of the people that can ultimately reverse it
too.

To the Editor

I strongly disagree with Jay Rosen’s requiem for

Mr. Rosen believes “the entire Main Street
Campus is on its way to becoming meaningless.”
Since when does change automatically eliminate the

of a
transformations the Main Street Campus is currently
undergoing will result in a more community-oriented
campus. The expansion of health science facilities
scheduled for Farber, Cary and Squire Halls will
immensely benefit both the students of SUNYAB
and the citizens of Buffalo.
The spirit missing at Amherst is still alive at
Main Street and will be for some time to come. That
architecture students now inhabit the corners of
Hayes Hall formerly reserved for administration
bigshots is a refreshing development, infusing staid
old Hayes with new life. Witness Rotary Field on a
football Saturday, jammed with thousands of Bulls’
fans. The Main Street Campus dorms, libraries and
athletic fields still hum with activity and, with the
exception of Abbott Library, they have been
bypassed in all modification plans.
I feel confident that Hayes Hall and all the other
buildings on the Main Street Campus will continue
to be centers of learning and student interaction in
the years to come.

The majestic Hayes Hall Tower oversees a Main
Street Campus still very much alive and meaningful.

Last year an Obscure Californian named Bakke was denied
,d mission to medical school. Finding that minority group members
with grades lower than his were admitted under the school’s affirmative
action program, Bakke brought suit against the school. The case, now
before the Supreme Court, may change American history, for if Bakke
succeeds all affirmative action programs will be jeopardized an
insurmountable defeat will have been dealt to those women and
minority group members struggling for equality.

A number of letters have appeared recently in The Spectrum
defending Bakke and attacking the concept of affirmative action in
higher education. I feel that many Students, including the authors of
some of the letters, are ignorant of the history, purposes and goals of
affirmative action and the facts concerning its present implementation.
Affirmative action, by way of general definition, is the taking of
positive action to assure that current practices are designed to
effectuate the advancement of a particular protected class or group in
order to remedy the continifing effects of past discrimination. The goal
of affirmative action is equal opportunity.
Throughout American history. Blacks, women and other groups of
people have been denied their rights, both legally and socially.
Discrimination has become so ingrained in American society that as
late as 1969 fewer than 1,-4 percept of those in Medical school were
minority group members. Assuming that no race or sex is naturally
inferior one must conclude that the low proportion of women and
minorities in colleges and professional schools is directly attributable to
discrimination. Clearly some form of remedial action has been
necessary to correct the abuses of the past and alleviate present
institutionalized racism /sexism. That remedial action is now under
„v
attack.
■
In the Bakke case a white male charges that he was denied his
rights under the fourteenth Amendment to equal protection under the
law. It is strange that the enemies of affirmative action should invoke
the amendment for it was with the Fourteenth Amendment that this
history of affirmative action began. The Fourteenth Amendment,
passed during the Reconstruction period, was used to validate the
activities of the Freedman's Bureau, a governmental body which gave
educational and job opportunities to former slaves, at the time called
“reverse discrimination,’ yet the Congress obviously saw differently for
it was the same Congress that passed the Fourteenth Amendment
prohibiting racial discrimination that established the Freedman’s
Bureau to rectify some of the inequities caused by past injustice.

Schools have always exhibited a willingness to consider factors
other than pure academic achievement in choosing students from this

catagory of potentially successful applicants. The social invovlement of
the student might be a factor (hence the concern of the pre-law student
for a “good” resume). (If it were not for this factor in law school
admissions perhaps we would not find such dedicated public servants as
Mr. Jeff Lessoff in student government... see Lessoff’s letter
attacking Bakke Committee from two weeks back.) Schools also
consider athletic ability in admissions yet no one cries “discrimination
when a fullback with mediocre grates is admitted to Penn State over a
non-athlete with grades ever so slightly less than mediocre. Confronted
with the admirable desire to in some way reduce inequality in society,
colleges decided to set aside some places for members of minority
groups, women, and the economically deprived. Let me reiterate that
those admitted under affirmative action quotas ase .expected by the
schools to succeed and that they are drawn from the same general
academic category as the majority of non-minority candidates.
Affirmative action quotas were set up in order to compensate for
the intentional denial to women and minorities the chance to acquire
the skills needed to compete with white males on the basis of academic
merit alone. As Lyndon Johnson said at Howard University in 196S:
“Freedom is not enough. You do not wipe out scars of centuries by
saying ‘now you’re free’..’. and justly believe you have been fair.’’

.is,..

The next major development in the history of affirmative action
was the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 which prohibited
discrimination based on an individual’s “race, color, religion, sex or
national origin." The Equal Employment Opportunity Act of 1972
went a step further and authorized the courts to enjoin unlawful
practices under the Civil Rights Act and order affirmative relief in such
cases.
Although not covered Under the Federal laws, many colleges and
universities, prodded by student activists and civil rights leaders, began
their own affirmative action programs. At first most of these programs
consisted of little more than the placing of ads for the schools in Black
oriented newspapers. After attempting numerous other recruiting
techniques, all of which failed to a greater or lesser degree in the
campaign to boost minority and women applicants, some schools
adopted the quota system as the Only effective affirmative action
program.
Colleges and professional schools, as you probably know, receive
many more applicants than they can possibly admit. It is normal
college policy, therefore, to divide applicants into three groups. The
first group consists of those with grades so superior as to gain them
automatic admittance. The second, of those with grades indicating no
chance of success in the school’s curriculum. The third and largest
group of applicants is made up of those lacking extraordinary grades,
but sufficiently intelligent to succeed in the school’s program of study.
This large group is called to fill the remaining places in the entering
class.

Bing Crosby remembered,even if only vaguely
by Gerard Sternesky
Arts Editor

Most of us know him as the man who
sang "White Christmas." If we are fans of
the old Hollywood, we may know that the
movie was called Holiday Inn. Beyond
that, the details are somewhat sketchy.
Some of us, when we were young, may
have sat with out parents and listened to
his records or seen him on television
dancing and singing his way through High
Society, or Mr. Music, or any one of the
innumerable films in which he appeared
with Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour. But
to the rest of us, Bing Crosby was, simply,
a celebrity.
I hesitate here, because the images
which inevitably come to mind when one
uses the word "celebrity" are of the people
apparent
with
talent
little
"entertainers," we sometimes call them
who are famous merely for being famous.

With Crosby, the association is not so
much qualitative as it is quantitative; he
was our parents' idol, just as Elvis Presley
was the idol of our older brothers and
sisters. The intervening years have given us
our own heroes now. and it is easy to
forget the old ones.
Then too, Crosby wasn't known for any
one thing in particular. Beginning with The
King of Jazz in 1930, he appeared in
something like fifty movies, though often
he was singing, not acting. Then again, his
movies were very often a collection of
songs arranged within the framework of a
story. Or else he was the down-to-earth
straight man for Bob Hope, on The Road
to Singapore, or... Zanzibar, or
Rio.
He won an Academy Award in 1944 for
Going My Way and in 1964 there was a
television series: The Bing Crosby Show.
No, he wasn't really an actor, not in
today's sense of the term. We look for
different qualities in our films and film
...

stars now: realism, credibility, a world we
can relate to. New York. New York, while
a recant film, is a salute to the age of the
musical comedies, not a reestablishment of
it. In the 30's and 40's, when most of

Crosby's films were made, movies had no
real message, or, if they did, it was very
often found in the song or joke. And if one
could sing or tell jokes in movies, one
could surely do the same on records or in
front of a live audience.
Such was the nature of "stardom" then
that "stars" were even less restricted in
their movements between media than they
are today, and their audience was
correspondingly larger. In his book. The
Fifty Yeer Decline And Fell of Hollywood,
Ezra Goodman writes that the United
Nations had a Press Agent in Hollywood.
"The U.N. has come to Hollywoood," a
spokesman explains, "because when Bing
Crosby speaks, many more people listen

than would listen to a United Nations
spokesman."

The Road to
But I am perhaps hedging on my own
impressions of what Crosby was. He had, I
believe, a closer relation to today's young
people than most of the stars of his
generation have. As an individual, he was
both quiet and humble, and he maintained
that he had done nothing to deserve the
"legend" status to which he was so often
assigned. Perhaps more than anyone, he
fulfilled
the
definition of
what
entertainment was 30 and 40 years ago.
And if he remains somewhat vague to our
younger generation, indeed, if he remains
only a "celebrity," it is because of
precisely that
we are too young. Of
course, his movies can still be seen on
television, and his records can still be
found in stores, but if we want the real
story, maybe we should ask our parents.

�money and television. Now if it can be
factors
assumed that the media is money and money is the
media then a good portion of the responsibility for
the changes has to belong to the Great Equalizer.
Baseball before television was identified with
Humanitarian home run hitters, dean*living and
good old modest American rugged individualism.
The media, at that time comprised of newspapers,
radio and newsreels, portrayed happy, hot dog eating
home-town boys who loved the game and their
mothers and only slept with their baseball mitts on.
With the onset of massive television audiences came
contracts,
multi-million dollar
commercial
endorsements and fancy uniforms. Things had
changed. Players swapped wives, injured autograph
seeking fans, said they ware only in it for the money
and wrote books saying nasty things about Micky
Mantle. Television, the mbst effective means of
communication yet created, had not only altered the
attitude of the baseball industry, but had become
vital to its economic survival, insuring a hand in its
future.
Music, the FM pop in particular, has also flown
into this guilded cage. The growth of mainstream
rock programming on all networks has served to
homogenize popular music, automatically limiting it,
so as not to alienate too much of the viewing
audience. Rock performers attempt to reach a more
broadly based audience than could possibly have
been envisioned when Linda Ronstadt, then a long
haired hippie vocalist with the Stpne Ponies, sang
about the "sound of a different drum." A different
—

drum is dearly heard when ex-revolutionaries appear
on the Mike Douglas show and tell housewives across
the nation that Strawberry Fields is not about drugs.
Or Dinah Shore flirting with David Bowie. Or Frank
Sinatra, despite his comments on how rock music is
hazardous to the health of American youth, singing
'Tea for Two" with earthy John Denver. By
elevating popular music into the mainstream of daily
culture and pacifying its performers with fat
contracts and the promise of the almighty one hour
special, television is helping to drain the batteries of
rock 'n roll, an art form whose energy is directly
obtained from rebellion against conspiracies like
television. It is easily, understood when observing
mainstream rock on a Sony Trinitron how musical
critics in the New Wave or Punk movements can
dismiss much of what is popular today.
It is not important that it was Linda Ronstadt
who ran off into the Dodger dugout. What is
important is that so many other musical artists who
were once exciting and innovative could also be
considered safe enough by the networks to appear In
a similar situation. For this reason it was somewhat
fitting that the National Anthem would be followed
by a moment of silence to commemorate the passing
of one of the vanguards of the previous generation of
musical personalities, Bing Crosby. Steely Dan, a
band that has the ability to touch that heart of
American culture, may have said it best i their first
LP, “If you live in this world, you're feeling the
change of the guard."

Russell's 'Valentino':
biography filled with
fantasies and myths
by Gerard Stemeaky
Spectrum Arts Editor

There is a scene in Valentino in which Rudolph Nureyev is
attempting to seduce his young silent film co-star. As she sits over him,
the woman says that she has been looking forward to the time when
she might make love to the great Valentino. Indeed, she has fantasized
about it "Don't be gentle." she moans, "hurt me, hurt me," and as
Nureyev idly watches from beneath her. the woman reaches climax.. I
mention this scene because of all the characters in Valentino, this one
seems to best accomplish what director Ken Russell was trying to
achieve with the film: she gets off on her own fantasy.

While most biographies set out to wipe some of the glitter away
from the "stars" they are dealing with, to go beneath the surface and
offer a more revealing, intimate protrait of the real person, there
little of that here. What is more apparent throughout the fHm is that
Russell has even less concern for the real Valentino than we do. True,
the details of Valentino's life are somewhat hazy. Nevertheless, one
can't help but feel cheated by the film, as if, instead of breaking down
the myths surrounding Valentino, it has supported them, and perhaps
even added a few of its own.
Lacks depth
It is difficult to pinpoint where the failure in Valentino begins.
Besides directing the film, Russell co-wrote the screenplay with Mardik
Martin. I can only wonder how much of an effect editor Stuart Baird
had on the final product, but it appears to have been very little,
because the film reeks of overproduction. Admittedly, Rudolph
Nureyev (in his first screen acting role) was an excellent choice to play
Valentino. Vet even his dancing cannot make up for a script in which
his character goes from arrogant to compassionate to greedy to
innocent to just plain stupid. Valentino doesn't develop as a character,
he just shifts emphasis from one scene to the next.
The narrative structure of the film contributes to this lack of
depth. The movie begins with Valentino already dead and lying,
somewhat placidly, in a casket. Gradually, those people who were in
some way connected with Valentino enter to pay their respects. As
they do, each one in turn offers themselves as a reference point against
which the film then cuts back to the past. What we end up with
through this framing technique is a neatly-tied package of the life of
Valentino as seen through the eyes of those around him. How strange
that the characters are able to recall events so chronologically.

As perverts as a neon meat dream
of an octafish, the music of
Captain Beefheart is a diverse
whatever of blues, jazz, rock and
roll and the special scent of
Zappa's B.O. There couldn’t be a
better band to supply music for
Your Halloween costume party.
You're even invited to His
Halloween party, at the Moot Hall
Nitedub. YOWSUHI Gat you tix
today!

Thin and stiff

Apart from Nureyev, the acting is no help either. Leslie Caron,
Michelle Phillips, Carol Kane, and even Huntz Hall of the old "Dead
End Kids" provide some of the thinnest, most stiffly acted supporting
roles I've ever seen. But again, is it them, or is it the script?

If the film is at ail bearable, it is on account of the camera work:
This was especially evident at the beginning of the film, when the large,
elegant dance hall which Valentino worked in was nicely contrasted
with his small, dingy apartment One irritating feature, though, was the
centering of so many images on the screen, as if Russell were trying to
present such an orderly world. Why, then. I wonder, does Valentino so
often manage to go out of control?

The death of one local band and the subsequent birth of another
highlight a year in Buffalo music that Will not soon be forgotten.
The first came with the final performance of Buffalo's premiere
progressive vehicle, Rodan, on the first of October. Rodan was one of
the few bands in the area that was promoting "Progressive" sounds,
both cover material and original compositions (the other group being
Pegasus, hard workers exercising a strictly original format). The group’s
decision to dissolve came with the departure of key components of the
Rodan organization.
Guitarist Bruce Brucato decided to leave the group for reasons that
were "partly financial," centered around differences over decision
making within the group; feeling that he couldn't agree with the way
the group was going about getting into the business. Although Brucato
felt a great deal of respect for what he considered some of the finest
musicians in the area, he also felt a need for change in his attitude
towards performing; a change which culminated a long hard decision

You have just seen the film. The Spy Who Loved Me you're
driving on the highway home and out of the radio, "Nobody Does it
Better" jangles your senses. Hell, you think, wasn't that the song just
heard in the movie? Stay tuned because radio stations are becoming
more like soundtrack records than ever before. The mediums of pop
music and the cinema are now kindred, a quick inspection of Billboard
will verify this.
What's being bought at the record stores lately are movie
soundtracks from the popular flicks around town. Trekking into the
past, we see that the first rock music act to record for a film was Simon
and Garfunkel and their memorable accompaniment for The Graduate
Since then, and especially within the past few years, the way to cash in
on both vinyl and celluloid is to create a hit song to play over the title
sequence and the closing credits. The catch is that the public will either
see the movie if they've heard the song or buy the soundtrack album
(or single) after they’ve seen the movie.
After The Graduate, the trend got onto its feet gradually. At the
fade-out of the Ws, the seething classic drama, Midnight Cowboy,
produced two offspring singles. "Everybody's Talkin'," half-whined by
Nilsson, was the perfect device to evoke the decrepit Tatso Rizzo
bustling along side Joe Buck on a New York City street. Riding on this
appeal, the schmaltz team of Ferrante and Teicher had their cover of
"Theme from Midnight Cowboy" high on the charts.
Curtis Mayfield followed suit a couple of years later with the
well-known score of Super Fly. A tasty mix of, soul/rock tunes
depicting the life of the down-and-out ghetto drug scene, the album
sold extemely well. The title cut and "Freddie's Dead" were spawned
onto the record buyers and they bought it relentlessly.
At the same time, Burt Bacharach Fever hit the screens and
turntables with Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid. The
phenomenally-selling catchy pop tune, "Raindrops Keep Failin' On My
Head," was subsequently recorded by many male and female vocalists
after B.J. Thomas had his original soundtrack version immortalized

A musical interlude

Towards the end on his hour and twenty minute
show, Klein, in an effort to display some of his
musical chops, brought out Raymond Johnson, (a
musician affiliated with a New York club), to
accompany him on piano while he played the blues
harmonica and sang. Klein parodied Morris Albert's
hit song "Feelings" overemphasizing the crooning
and false emotion, of that song. Klein concluded
with an improvised song whose title was chosen from
audience catcalls. "Okay, 'Hot Tuna and Buffalo
Drive-in.' it'll be a ballad." It wasn't just die clever
lyrics that made the song funny; delivery and
spontaneity were also important factora which

In the early times of the 1970's, there were more songs culled
from films which reached mass taste. The Sting moved into Academy

Marvin Hamlisch, MCA released "The Entertainer" as a single and

A whole series of films, the very profitable James Bond collection,
contained an assortment of songs which the public ate up along with
the improbable stunts onscreen. Other than the current Carly Simon
song, the first few Bondies had sleek, MOR title compositions
(Goldfinger, From Russia With Love, You Only Live Twice, and
Thunderball) . Rock entered the picture (literally) with help from Paul
McCartney and Wings' title track for Live and Let Die. It was very
spectacular listening, for the blaring horns and the sly melody gave one
a preview for the film's activities.

box-office blast, A Star Is Born, with Paul Williams, entitled
"Evergreen" and it garnered her an Academy Award. The single was a

8-track units to play when one wishes to go into "hyperspace" down
the near-by thoroughfare.
As long as money exists the association between pop music and
the film industry is likely to be a long-lasting bond. You may question
if this is an example of the artist selling out to the popularity quota,

Dance Band On the Titanic (Elektra)
If you thought a single Chapin album was enough, imagine the
tolerance of listening to a double set? Dance Band On the Titanic is as
inconsistent and bland as alt of the previous Chapin albums released in
the past few years. Harry needs a producer other than his brother,
Stephen, and a concentration on shorter, better-written songs. I can't
take too much of his simplistic moralizing. His tales which are told in
each song are quite boring and non-dramatic. The offbeat love song is
the material I have come to appreciate in the past from Chapin and I
don't find it anymore on the newer albums. Perhaps the sagging sales of
his records .will give him the message he is wandering around in
unproductive territory.

Sun rises (or does it just materialize?) for the
one who dares to care. Come the Second Salience,
the next step, a new day, how shall our shadows
reflect the growth of the mountain? Is our sense of a
common deep, or have we cast ourselves a Shallow
tide? The darkness and the daylight knows. Only our
being shows.
With the power and the majesty, sensitive
tapestries cluster like nova's aftermath, a new life in
the sky, shedding more explosive subjects than any
death can object to. Let us encounter some stars.
The Great Concert of Cecil Taylor (Prestige) is
but one of a lifetime of masterpieces from the
pianistic lord of Luyah. From the classic Nuitsde la
Fondation Maeght series (originally on the French
table Shandar), this trilogy (a single tune of six
scenes) is entitled "Second Act of A," and the
formulative turbulence to be foundtherein speaks
strongly of a world spiritual.
Guided by Mantu, billowing as Tolkien himself
would have upon playing the Music of his Creation's

you're ready, with The Silmaril/ion) the bond

collective unity, the Music leaps and sings suites that
even the most thorough of Masters will find pleasant
surprise in. To say Andrew Cyrille is one of the most
musical of drummers would be superfluous. He shifts
and sways and instigates percussive fluidity. Jimmy

Lyons’ volatile alto bounds jauntily (as ever) to the
task, as Sam Rivers' plasmatic contours flow as a
cornucopia yields fine fruit. His roaringly tenor
saxophone often couples with Jimmy to produce a
solar storm of harmony, while his helix-like soprano
enhances the hypnotic flavor of Taylor's chant at the
beginning of Scene 4. Almost an entity itself at
times, the chant, at once very Harlem and
Afro-Eastern oriented, presents a further build-up of
calming forces. Let this Concert become a feeling of
ageless potential in your hands, waiting to become a
beautifying reality for the world.

The poetry grows from the foundation of
human lifelines, telling us the worst that we have
done, and the best that we can be. It extends the
reach of insight, reaching into the deep brightness of
myth and reality sciences that Africa's civilizations
have given the world from the Dawn of Time (the
stage wardrobes, very Egyptian, as, of course, the
sunny side of the name Ra). The reach looms for the
future with the optimism that only a knowledge of
Earth's pragmatic history can bring, pointing to the
outer reaches of other planets and the inner reaches
of Man's soul.

with his hot band arrangements, and between his

commercially compelling but certainly intriguing enough to hear him

Instead of following the composer variation of Endless Flight

The dynamic singing of Leo still never fails to startle. With the
masses of consumers in mind and perhaps a hungry wallet, Leo's words
have lowered down to pedestrian love ballads which are far from his
potential. Unique, autobiographical vignettes is what Leo stood out for
to me and unless he reverts back to fromer attitudes, which I guess is
unlikely, he will be gone from my admiration, as another artist is shot

�Buff State theater is
disappointingly flat
by Tom Dooney

LTt

Spectrum Music Staff

The theater scene at Buffalo State College always puzzles.
Dramatic events there are produced by a student run, college funded,
organization known as Casting Hall. Casting Hall presents works by
guest artists the likes of The Theatre Labortoire Vicinal of Belgium,
and The Performance Group (under the direction of Richard
Schechner) of New York City, to the school and to the city of Buffalo.
Such unique and exciting companies have given dazzling performances
at State that were well attended and well received.
Casting Hall also produces plays directed by Buff State theater
faculty and enacted by Buff State students. Arthur Schnitzler's La
Ronde, directed by Donald Savage and running now until October 22
at Upton Hall, is such a production. This is where my puzzlement
comes in. After being exposed to some of the most inventive work in
modern world theater, why do the people at Buff State produce some
of the most lackluster and uninteresting work possible for a college
Jy
theater?
La Ronde, written in 1896, is certainly Schnitzler's best known
work. It is a highly literate, yet realistic, comedy about ten
heterosexual relationships: a whore and a soldier have a casual fling by
a bridge; the soldier and a parlormaid rendezvous in the park; the maid
is seduced by her employer; on and on the liasons overlap. and the
characters presented include an adulterous married couple, a name
young woman, a poet, an actress, a Count and. finally, bade to the
whore. A complete circle is made; la ronde.
There are differences in texture and mood and attitude mitten
into each of the ten scenes by Schnitzler. Each couple is portrayed
before and after intercourse, however their interactions ieadmg up to
and following sex differ.

French theater company to
present lonescu in Buffalo
The Treteau de Paris is coming to Buffalo!
Have you ever had the vague impression that,
despite the Albright- Knox-Gallery, Kleinhans Music
Hall, and various vestiges of by-gone Queen City
grandeur, Buffalo is lacking in cultural events? Well
here is an announcement that might change your
mind; the Treteau de Paris is coming to Buffalo! In
defiance of an article on Buffalo which appeared
some time ago in the New York Times Sunday
Supplement and which ended with the categorical
statement that "people with genius leave Buffalo and
never come back," this courageous French theater
company is indeed returning to this area.
To honor the 20th anniversary of the longest
running production In history of the Parisian theater,.
Le Treteau de Paris under the leadership of Jean de
Rigault with their world-famous performance of
Eugene Ionesco's La Cantatrice Chauve (The Bald
Soprano).

the original
production in 1950 at the Theatre des Noctambules
(literally: Theater of the Nightwalkers) will head the
cast in the role of Mr. Martin. La Cantatrice chauve
has been performed at La Huchette well over 6000
times and has been acclaimed by the most
prestigious critics during its tour through Europe,
Isreal, and Japan.
The evening’s progran will open with a selction
of songs and sketches by Jacques Prevert, gaily and
tenderly evocative of the streets and squares of the
other queen city, Paris, "la reime du monde." This
part, entitled Larimaquoi? Larimarienl is a timely
tribute to the memory of the author of the
melancholic and haunting song "Les Feuilles
mortes," and of Les Enfants du paradis (Children of
Paradise) whose filmed version by Marcel Came may
be known to most of us.
Ionesco's anti-play in eleven absurd scenes is an
attack on all the sacred cows of our culture;
marriage, individuality, social decorum, logical
thought, our notions of time and space, and language
as a means of communication. In this play Ionesco

deprives language of its semantic function; verbal
signs become mere noise filling an even more

burdensome silence. The student of French may take
heart; repetitions of repetitions and sentences for
sentences' sake are familiar to him; the next time
around he'll

surely

catch on.

The final scene coversation on stage consists of a
series
of
worn-out
nonsense-sentences,
commonplaces, and pseudo-proverbs of which 'Take
a circle, caress it, and it will become vicious" belongs
to those which seem to have a hidden truth-content.
Finally, this conversation turns from a play on words
into a play on sounds, gorgeous tongue breakers that
should drive any amateur of the French language
into a frenzy. Needless to add, there are also those
puns which only a native or near-native speaker is
able to pick up.

In short, this play should delight, disturb, or
infuriate its audience. Not only do we leave the
theater wondering why the play is entitled La
Cantatrice Chauve but also because we sense vaguely
that we as theater goers have been made fun of. And
this is precisely why we dare call this ev6nt a truely
cultural event. Only "culture vultures" do not realize
that culture has to continously put itself into
question.

The performance of Le Treteau de Paris are
sponsored by the Association Francaise daction

Victorian sexuality
Savage and his company have played upon die most surface
character traits of the lovers. In one episode, a husband is a tdkabwe,
boring philosopher trying to explain to his wife why he hat only made
love to her a few times during their five year marraige. In the next
scene he should be a physically hungry man on the make iter a
nineteen year-old in a private room of a restaurant. The actor plays Itae
two contrasting scenes with the same dull, tired expression.
The company has mistaken sexual politics and love gams for turn
of the century prudery. A woman might put off her lower before
yielding for a number of reasons: displeasure, a subtle power play, fear,
a tease. In the Buff State production a woman hesitates only to find
out if the man is sincere and truly loves her. It seems as if they bairn
any depictions of Victorian sexuality must be puritanied.
Schnitzler's script is a fresh and honest study on mde/femde
so dosed
relations in the bedroom. This production, however,
minded that Schnitzler comes off as a virgin who teds dirtily duty

jokes.

The evening at Upton Hall Auditorium was all the more unpleasant
because of a small but rude audience that tried to humiliate the house
manager and called out to friends acting on the stage.
Casting Hall is to be admired for their activity (presenting local
and visiting talent and exposing the community to foreign and exciting
theater), however. Casting Hall makes no attempt to monitor their own
work. By the impressive guests that they invite to their campus, tfiey

process within the performer. A change, that he is striving to
successfully complete by his collaboration with bassist Bill Sheehan is
the formation of Light Years. The decision of Bmcato's to split from
Rodan was not the total reason for disbandment, however. With the
plans of Litftt Years underway, sound engineer Tim Rinkerman
decided to also leave Rodan to apply his technical ability to the new
youp. Rinkerman owned the majority of Roden's sound amplification
system (mixing board, PA system) and with his leaving, the group was
not only faced with finding substitute instrumentation but was hard
pressed to reproduce thousands of dollars of sound quality
immediately. Rodan's style wasn't exactly packing the clubs and their
weak finances just made the split inevitable.
Roden's remains
So the next question asks what will happen to the remainder of
the members of Rodan. Starting immediately will be the addition of
percussive giant Tad Reinhardt to the jazz fusion group Spyro Gyra.
Keyboardist Rick McGirr is planning to launch a classically influenced
rock group with such area musicians as drummer Eddie Folger and
bassist Greg Piantek while the remaining members isinger Tom
Reinhardt and bassist Bill Ludwig) are unanchored, although they both
wish to pursue careers in the jazz field. Meanwhile, Light Years prepare
their debut.
Bassist Bill Sheehan's availability may be puzzling to those that
presently find him playing out with Talas. What happened is that
Sheehan was asked to leave the group by the other members, causing
the opportunity for Light Years, but h currently finishing up an agreed
commitment. Sheehan cited a number of reasons for his being asked to
leave, the majot ones stemming from feelings of jealousy and
overshadowment that the other members of Talas, drummer Paul Varga
and guitarist Dave Constatino, expressed. Sheehan pointed out that
many of the technical aspects of Talas were his respondsibility; that
included the majority of arrangements and decisions on cover material.
Sheehan feds that aspects of public rdations that concerned Talas
tended to surround him (photographers, fans wearing Bill Sheehan
buttons) and that this had a direct effect in his expulsion from the
group. Sheehan has cast aside any hard fedings, however, and is intent
on the new |poup: a group he feds will fufill his professional interests
and achieve the technical elevation that he could never find in Talas.
Wail bassist Dale Croston is the projected replacement for Talas.
Four LH0it Years
Years will surface as a four man group featuring Brucato and
Sheehan as wdl as a drummer from Rochester named Mark Miller
(once with the group Aurora, and is presently doing session work for
various artists in Rochester). The singer remains a surprise for now, but
■Sheehan promises that the position will be fufilled by someone who
can contribute as a fourth member rather than just a singer.
The intentions of the group will be to perform an intelligent brand
rock
music that will sustain an energy level high enough to allow
of
physical involvement: Liflht Years will prove to be more than just head
music. Cover material will encompass everything, from Be-Bop Deluxe
and Cheap Trick to King Crimson and Genisis. Added instrumentation
will enhance Light Years' audio/visual stage presence; Sheehan
expanding to a new design of a bass pedals ( a unit consisting of fifty
pedals) while Brucato will play a device called an orchestron, a
laser-operated meHotron-like ensemble that uses laser beams and
recorded cfiscs at opposed to tapes.
The people of Buffalo should anticipate the coining of Light
Yean, they will provide tome needed hope for this tragic city and its
depressed musical exposure. The people should also fear the break-up
of Rodan; the ultimate reason for their finish reflects back to this same
depression. Watch for these excellent musicians, not just Light Yean
but the dispatched ex-Rodants as well. Most of aH, understand this

Ul Hi

Warren Buffet, the owner of the Buffalo Evening News goes
way back in the newspaper business. As a boy, Buffet delivered the
Washington Post. Today he owns 10.5 percent of the Post
non-voting stock and wields power in that and other publications,
including the Boston Globe.
Buffet, described as an “investment wizard” is listed by
Standard A Poor’s Register of Directors and Executives as being the
chairman of eight different corporations and a member of the
Board of Directors of eight others.
Buffet is the major stockholder in Blue Chip Stamps Inc., a Los
Angeles based company which purchased the News last spring for
$33 million. The paper was published by Edward Butler from 1880
until his death in 1914. Butler left the paper to his son Edward H.
Butler who passed away in 1956. His widow served as President
until her death in 1974.
Time magazine reported that Buffet had considerable influence
over Katherine Graham, the publisher of the Washington Post. The
magazine describes Buffet as “virtually an unpaid Washington Post
Co. executive.”
Courier’s own employees.
“What I’m afraid is going to
happen,” one News staff member
observed, “Is that the Courier will
go out of business and the News
will get blamed.” This attitude
was reaffirmed by other people at
the News. “No newspaperman
wants to see the Courier fold,”
said another staffer, “1 have a lot
of friends down there.”
The News’ concern for the
Courier is understandable. Most
obvious is the fact that without a

Also, individual

“threaten” management with
jumping to the Courier. There is a
feeling among all
genuine
reporters that the Courier makes

the News a better paper and vice
versa. The competitive drive
within a reporter, the intrinsic
staisfaction in beating a rival to a
stray, would be lost should the
Courier eventually fold.
Pretty ptaKd off
Staff members at the Courier
were very straightforward in their
attitudes towards the News’
Sunday morning motives. “I really

don’t think there is any question
they’re trying to put us out of
business,”
a Courier staffer
commented. Another employee
termed the News’ action “a direct
threat” and an attempt to “take
over the entire market.” Despite
this sobering view, Courier people
simply would not express any
fears about their paper folding.
There was a general feeling that
the City of Buffalo is on the
Courier’s side, as the paper
assumes the “underdog local
company battling out of town
millionaire” role.
"Buffalo is a very provincial
place,” said a Courier reporter, “1
think people are pretty pissed off
at the News for starting this.”
This “the-people-are-on-our-side”
attitude has been backed up by a
mysterious bumper sticker that is
popping up on cars all over town.
The sticker, for which Courier
denies
all

responsibility, reads: “Send your
money west
Buy the Buffalo
Evening News." A Courier staff
member said in response to the
stickers, “I don’t know where
those bumper stickers came from,
but I think it's pretty indicative of
the kind of place Buffalo is.”

Buffalo taskforce
plans for the winter
by Bobbie Demme

Spectrum

Staff Writer

Despite continuing efforts on the part of the city, the Army and
the National Guard, the solution to snow removal problem in Buffalo
in the event of a recurrence of last year’s snovv emergencies has yet to
be found, according to Deputy Director of Street Sanitation George
Pierakows. He emphasizes, however, that the National Weather Service
(NWS) estimates the chances of such a recurrence at one in 30. And the
Buffalo snow removal task force is geared up and ready to tackle
anything that the remaining 29 chances may bring.
A large influx of new equipment is a primary reason for this
preparedness. Buffalo now has devices known as “unimogs.” There are
a trio of these four-wheel drive vehicles, all equipped with snow
blower, deep plow and a straight edge. Highly maneuverable, these
"unimogs” will be invaluable in Buffalo’s residential areas and on the
narrower streets.
Soon to join the “unimog” force are ten heavy-duty trucks,
including six single axle trucks and four tandem axle trucks, all
variously equipped with front plows, wing plows and salt spreader
bodies. Along with the tons of salt they will be spreading on the wintry
streets of Buffalo, a spray substance called calcium chloride will be
introduced.
Snow and streets
According to Pierakows, calcium chloride sp'ray, used in
conjunction with salt at temperatures around 20’F and below, hastens
the melting process. He claimed that the process is instantaneous.”
When questioned about using calcium chloride exclusively to avoid
salt corrosion, he replied, “It’s just too expensive.” Department of
Transportation official Steve Schwartz concurs. “There’s an investment
problem . . . along with it being a more technically-oriented
substance.” Sand or abrasives used on the country roads were ruled out
entirely because of possible damage to the sewer system.
Snow task force
The revamping in the Streets Department was not solely restricted
to the equipment. A Snow Task Force Report was prepared under City
Corporation Counsel Les Foschio, and already changes are being made
in the force structure. The Department itself has been beefed up with
more manpower. And instead of the three eight-hour shifts with which
they operated last year, two 12-hour shifts will be implemented. While
this entails a longer stretch on the road for the men, it also gives them
adequate time to rest, recuperate and therefore be more prepared for
the duties of the next shift.
Along with less wear and tear on the men, upkeep of the
equipment will be facilitated. There will hopefully be enough trucks on
the road to allow a few to remain behind for maintenance purposes.
Last year’s fleet.was decimated by the combined effects of 71,000
continuous miles and little or no time for checkups and repairs.

90 inohc*
In addition to efforts being made by the city, a contract bid was
opened this past Monday, to bring private contractors into Buffalo’s
snow removal scene. With more manpower and a teaming up of city
and private forces, Pierakows says the Department of Street Sanitation
is prepared to take care of Buffalo’s average 85-90 inch snowfall this
winter. To prepare themselves for another Winter of ’77 is unfeasible.
‘That’s an expenditure of two thirds of a million dollars on an ‘if basis
the city can’t afford,” maintained Pierakows. “If there’s another such
emergency, we’ll need the help of the Army and the National Guard
again.”
What remains to be seen is just what type of winter is in store for
the Western New York area. The Farmer’s Almanac predicts another
winter of blizzards for Buffalo, while, as reported earlier, the NWS are
giving the odds at 30:1.
Deputy Director Pierakows reports that other national weather
services, National Accuweather among them, say they have the
information to predict the weather up to December, although they
have not disclosed their findings. A call to the National Acuweather
Service failed to support this claim. In fact, the Acuweather official
unequivocally denied it as false.
So it seems you need more than a weatherman to tell which way
the winter winds \fcill blow.

Experience helps

University maintenance gets
ready for one more winter
by Lee Scott Perres
Spectrum Staff Writer
The Farmer’s Almanac predicts a Buffalo winter
at least as bad as last year’s and the University is

planning for heavy snow this year.
Vice President for Finance and Management
Edward Doty outlined the policy for winter school
closings. “When weather conditions become so bad
as to prevent adequate bus service between the
campuses, prevent campus roads and especially
parking lots from being kept clear, the University
will announce school is closed by 6 a.m. over local
radio stations. If the decision cannot be made by 6
a.m., it will be made as soon as the decision to close
occurs. In the event of school closing, everyone
except essential pefsonnelis asked to stay away from

campus.”
Personnel essential for the functioning of the
University include Security, Food Service persons,

maintenance, powerhouse workers and animal care
persons.

If the snows do come, there are problems that
even the essential personnel are faced with. With
wind sometimes whipping around at 60 miles per
hour, there are “whiteouts,” snow blowing so hard
that it causes near zero visibility. There are
Maintenance people out in large machinery, and
while they have never been called off the streets,
their movement can be restricted for safety reasons.
New Equipment will help
Physical Plant Director of the Amherst Campus
Dean Frederics has some new equipment to make
general snow removal easier. The equipment includes
a new plow and plowing vehicle. This machinery will
supplement the current inventory of two all-wheel
drive front loaders, two tractor loaders, three big
tfuck plows, plus an army of jeeps and tractors and
will help make Amherst snow removal easier.
According to Frederics, “The Main Street
Campus uses smaller machinery to remove the snow.
We did shuttle equipment back and forth between
Main Street and here There was a great cooperative
effort this past winter.” According to Frederics, the
biggest problem seemed to be equipment
breakdown. “When you plow 24 hours a day, seven
days a week, it’s bound to take its toll,” Frederics
commented.
Supervisor of Grounds Dick Bohn explained the
problem with the North Campus terrain. “We put up
about a mile of snow fence but due to the terrain we
can’t put them all over.” He further explained that
for snow fences to be effective, they have to be at
least 100 feet away from the road or pathway it’s
protecting. The fences cause the snow to swirl, piling

it up against the fence to make a snow wall. Sinoe
many roads on campus have only 30-foot shoulders,
snow fences would cause the roads to be buriad.
“Once a fence is covered by snow. It is no good
anyway,” Bohn commented, ‘Whoever expected
that much snow last year?”
Cold causes chagrin
Problems were also caused by the freezing cdU
temperatures as well as the heavy snowfalllast yaw.
“Many people were out joy riding to see what the
campus looked like and this earned us seac
problems,” Bohn explained. “Even with core
stranded all over the roads, there was no damage
done to any vehicles during the removal process.'
Another problem caused by the cold was the gelhqg
of the diesel fuel used in many of the vehicles This
made refuelling the machines very -difficult. Thane
was minor damage done to lawns, street light poles,
fire hydrants and signs. They were baried by snow
and just couldn’t be seen.
-

“We are always looking for new methods,”
Bohn said. “Rock salt was always usd on the roads
but at IS degrees, it’s ineffective unless there is
heavy traffic or sun on it." Maintenance is now
investigating the use of other abrasives sudh as grit.,
sand and cinders. “The ice conditions when the*
was no snow were much worse than when there w
snow. Wc hope to get a larger salt spreader to help us
with this problem,” Frederics added.
Cooperation is key
Frederics later said. “Success depends on
cooperation between us, the Town of Amherst,
students and faculty. Our primary objective is tn
keep roads open for emergency equipment. Then we
try to clear the roads and parking lots for the
morning classes.”
One possible problem forseen by Maintenance
was the clearing of parking lots. Since they a»e
utilized much more this year, the added cars make
removal difficult. "We can’t put snow on Ike
shrubbery,” said Dick Bohn, “It would kill then.
The islands in the lots make removal hard too. If
they weren’t there, we could dean them easily.
There just isn’t anywhere to put the snow.”

All things considered, Maintenance was not
fearful of the coming winter. Equipment is already
being readied for the first snowfall. “We have the
horses,” Frederics commented, “It just depends on
how things come We are more optimistic than
pessimistic.’
Students and faculty were requested to utilize
the already cleared areas so the coveted ones can be
cleared. This may mean a bit more walking, but it
will make life and snow removal much easier.

It becomes clear upon entering
that this is not just
another supermarket, it is the
store of the future.
“Superstores” have existed on
the west
for about 10 years,
but Wegmans is the first to bring
this concept to New York State.
This type of store makes it
possible for one-stop shopping.
Found within Wegmans is a drug
store with two pharmacists on
staff, a fabric and clothing center,
a plant shop, imported items, and
just about every type of food
imaginable. “Most supermarkets
have 15,000 items on their
shelves. We have over 60,000,”
said Anne Verbeck, Wegmans’
Customer Representative at the
Albert Road store, next to the
Boulevard Mall.
shoppers
“Most
are
enthusiastic over the idea of
one-stop shopping. It saves them
time because a lot of little things
making shoppers go to another
store for, will be right here,” said
Verbeck, adding, “Some people
have told us they don’t like the
store because it’s too big.”

Tip for Tops
Wegmans is privately owned
and has been in business for over
30 years. The operation originated
in Rochester, where it started as a
small gorcery store owned by
Robert Wegman. The business was

“Many people may have gotten

Verbeck.

good.”
A management employee said
that there is a strong rivalry

between

stores.

“Wegmans will send people into
Tops to check the displays and
find out how well they are
doing.”
Many customers think that a
lot of heat is wasted through the
wide, open air entrance. However,
Wegmans seems to be very

conscious of energy conservation.
“Seventy five percent of the
store's energy is recycled,”
clarified Verbeck. “We have
equipment on the roof that
reclaims lost energy which we
then re-use.”

a computerized system which
records the item and its price in a

has the price of each item stored

At the same moment, a small
screen over the counter flashes the
name of the item and its price, for
the convenience of the customer.
Each scanner unit costs in the
neighborhood of $20,000.

team begins season
by loydark
Sportt Editor

When the women’s bowling
team opens its season in West
Virginia this weekend, there will
be four new bowlers in the first
team lineup.'Two of those are
promising freshmen, one is a
transfer who turned down a
bowling scholarship from Indiana
to attend UB and the fourth had
the highest average of any woman'
in the United States last year.
Cindy Cobum, who averaged
211 last year to lead the nation,
had also planned to attend
Indiana University, which had
offered her a scholarship. But she
wasn’t impressed by either the
location or the curriculum, and so
she changed her plans to come to
Buffalo. Junior Cobum, the
daughter of professional bowler
Doris Cobum, lives in the Buffalo
area and transferred here from
Erie Community.
Sue Fulton had the same

scholarship offer that Cobom did
and she, too, came to UB for the
same reasons. Coburn and Fulton
have something else in common
they were both members of the
ECC team that traveled to the
collegiate nationals last year.
-

Record setter
ECC placed fourth in the
women’s
of
that
division
tournament and Coburn led the
pack with a 652 series. She also
set a single game record in the
tournament with a 269. In the
district tournament that was the
first step to the nationals. UB
finished third behind ECC and
Brock port (the first two finishers
went on to the sectionals). This
year, with two of ECC best
bowlers,
coach Jane Poland
expects UB to go further. “We
hope to win the ACUI (the
district tournament),” she said.
The two freshmen on the first
team are Mary Lee Braniecki and
Terry Strassel. Both average about
I7S per game. Rounding out the
first team is senior Patti Schafer.
Poland emphasized that the
starting lineup is not set. She will
determine the lineup for each
tournament
by the howlers’
performances in practice.

Buffalo’s first match is the
Virginia
University
West
invitational this weekend. This is
the first time UB has gone to this
prestigious tournament and they
willhave some tough competition
(West Virginia finished third in
the women's division of the
nationals last year). According to
Poland, this tournament will he a
testing ground for her team.

Bowling problems
In addition to the five starters,
there are also seven other women
“We’ve got a lot of

of steady howlers,”

Cohum. “We have twelve
people to choose from, instead of
seven or eight like some other

said

teams.”
Two of those bowlers were on
last year’s first team, seniors Jane
Nowaczyk and Minna Could
Lombardi. Senior Liz Wolszczak
and junior Chris Clemente were'
on the Buffalo squad last
year. Clemente is trying to change
her throw from a back-up ball to a
more effective throw.

                    <text>Registration problems

MFC loses students
by Elena Cacavas
Spectrum Staff Writer
A huge drop in Millard Fillmore College (MFC) enrollment has
been blamed on communication gaps and inconvenient registration
procedures. Night students, apparently frustrated in their attempts to
register, simply giave up, resulting in a 35 percent decrease in the
school’s enrollment figures.
5100 students were enrolled prior to 1975, 4660 as of that year
and 3450 as of this fall. Until about 1973 the College handled its own
registration. However, the University Administration felt this system
was not “cost effective” since it duplicated efforts already taken on by
the University’s Office of Admissions and Records (AAR). Thus,
changes were implemented and MFC relinquished control of its

registration.
This year’s problems were due to a large backlog of admission’s
material including data forms and applications. According to Assistant
Dean of Admissions for MFC Eric Streiff, “Although students
registered for courses in July, their data forms were not processed until
after the course request forms.” Consequently, when students showed
up, expecting to receive schedule cards, they left empty handed.
'

.

Lack of
The confusion surrounding the admission’s procedure led to
communicative problems. While the group of people responsible for the
confusion knew the situation first hand, an entirely different group of
people had contact with the students. The latter group, unable to
explain and adequately direct students, simply told the unregistered
students to come back. When the forms were finally processed, the
courses were already closed.
Another problem associated with registration was the lack of night
registration hours for night students. Initially, there were no evening
hours scheduled. A&amp;R was open until 6:30 p.m. two nights a week. As
Streiff pointed out, “This posed an extremely difficult problem for
people who worked until 5:30.” Hours were eventually extended in
response to demands, but at no point were the times stable or fixed.
Streiff stated, “One cannot say that registration is 'entirely to
blame for the drop in enrollment. There were this year, however, many
students who simply felt ‘forget it’.”
Immediate results needed
“When MFC swtiched from handling its own registration no one
analyzed the ‘cost effective’ situation,” Streiff said. He felt that, had
this issue really been considered, “someone would have realized that
with MFC’s being open every night, costs would have been lower than
to extend hours for the University’s Office of Admissions and Records.
Streiff concluded that a registration system is needed which
produced immediate results. He added that this would mean vast
changes that have been promised by the
changes within the system
University Administration. The registration prqcess may eventually go
back to being centrally controlled by MFC itself.

Resister’s return:
the opinions vary
On Thursday, October 20, 1977, a Buffalo draft resister will end
his seven year exile when at 12 noon he crosses the Peace Bridge and
enters the United States.
Bruce Beyer has been the subject of various articles in The
Spectrum, and has been featured in columns of both the Courier
Express and the Buffalo Evening News. Beyer’s controvertial story
involves his resistance to the Vietnam war, the symbolic sanctuary he
took in the Unitarian Universalist Church on West Ferry, and his
consequent exile, after trials and sentencings, to Sweden and Canada.
This past week WKBW-TV held an interview with Beyer, the last before
his return home.
On Thursday at 12 noon, a large congregation of reporters and
interested persons, many of whom are members of concerned local
organizations, will assemble at the American side of the Peace Bridge to
witness his return. Ironically, Beyer will be accompanied by his defense
attorney Ramsey Clark, who was, nine years ago, the Attorney General
to whom he originally returned his draft card.
In concurrence with their feelings about the Vietnam War and
resistance to it, some people are sympathetic to Beyer’s case and others
oppose his actions and beliefs. According to Ramsey Clark, who has
been an advocate of amnesty for all Vietnam-era draft resisters,
deserters and people who received less than honorable discharges, the
real issue is overcoming the emotionalism of the sixties and doing the

Administration insists that
students okayed ID card
by John H. Reiss
Managing Editor

Director of Admissions and Records (A&amp;R)
Richard Dremuk has answered charges that students
were not involved in the ID card decision by naming
Student Association (SA) Director of Student
Affairs Paul Glauber and Director of Student
Activities Pat Lovejoy as two of the student officials
who approved the design.
He also asserted that at least one member of the
present
Council (IRC)

administration was also involved in that decision.
Dremuk explained that the decision not to
include students’ date of birth, address or signature
was reached by the committee, comprised of both
students and administrators, by the Spring of 1976.
He said the committee agreed to these conditions

He added that he, occupied with the Leverendum,

When informed of Dremuk’s claim that a
member of IRC participated in the decision, IRC
Vice President Stephanie Freund admitted to having

claims that administrators did not allow students to
affect changes in the card’s design. Freund
maintained that she explained to the committee’s
administrators what she felt to be shortcomings of
the card’s design, only to be told that decisions made
in the past could not be amended. “When I brought
up the question of date of birth,” Freund said, “they
told me there was nothing they could do about it.
They told me if I wanted a card with a date of birth,
I should try to get sherriffs cards on campus.”

seven-andone-halfyear exile.

Beyer was elected to the sole paying position at
The Center, an accomplishment he still speaks of as
the highest honor possible from the American
community there. For the equivalent of one hundred
American dollars a month (in addition to supplements
from the Swedish government), Bruce ran The Center
for 1V4 years, becoming a kind of spokesman for
American resisters in Sweden. Eventually he was
interviewed by television crews from the United States
(ABC, NBC and CBS), and by Russian, Italian and
Roumanian journalists.
Life in Sweden, no doubt, had its satisfactions:
Beyer still speaks of Sweden as one of his “three
countries.” But pressures from several unrelated
sources began to build until he was looking for ways to
return to Canada.
■
There were, for instance, regular and fearful
“interviews” with INTERPOL, the European police
who were, in effect, “NATO cops.” Relations with the
Swedes, for Americans at large, began to degenerate as
more Americans arrived. Finally, according to Beyer,
Swedes blamed either Americans or southern
Europeans for the increasing social allienation of
Swedish youth, for growing drug abuse, and even,
incredibly, for an outbreak of dysentery.
At the same time, Bruce decided it was time to

Canada might shake things back together in their

him.

“My intention at that point,” Beyer said, “was to
become a Swede, not to come back to the States, not
even to have any contact with Americans.
"I immediately enrolled in language school,
where I stayed for six months supported by the
Swedish government.”
For a time Beyer managed to stay exclusively in
the company of his Swedish-born roommates who
would purposefully speak only Swedish. “They
clearly wanted me to become part of the Swedish
Left,” he said. It helped that Martin’s father was a
“middleclass Swedish Marxist,” a doctor at the
Karilinska Institut (for cancer research), and an
influential man.

It is for his reporting of the Vietnam war that Burchett is most
famous. He has traveled in Vietnam extensively interviewing people
from the moat humble villagers and guerilla fighters to the top
leadership of the revolutionary movement. In 1963, he was the first
western reporter to travel through the liberated zones of South
Vietnam as a guest of the National Liberation Front. GabrielKolko has

campaign budget. When leaders and bureaucrats come
together to talk, discussions seem to become chaotic.
Such is the inherent nature of the bureaucrat and the
politician. Whatever pain that results from the
haranguing can be remedied with a bottle of Maalox.
The politician’s stomach is rarely sour. And journalists
and public interest groups can do little when they
don’t know what bureaucrats are saying. That lack of
communication results more often than journalists or
public interest groups would ever care to admit.
Meanwhile, lonely oldsters go lumpy, have their heat
turned off, and become ill. And everyone feels sorry
after the fact.
What Eve has proposed regarding the role of
colleges and universities is more rhetoric. It keeps
piling up and piling up. Because what Eve cares to
initiate already has been done.And pretty well at that.
Students are assigned to roles in city government
through this University’s College of Urban Studies.
They do what are basically “crap jobs.”But this work
helps the city go ’round. And the bureaucrats keep

FVS cutbacks keep

‘Rat’ closed Sundays
The Rathskellar in Squire Hall has been dosed on Sundays
after operating the fall semester at a loss, according to Director of
Food and Vending Service Donald Hosie.
The Rat, as many students call it, needed a staff of five people
to operate on Sundays, including four students. Payroll costs for
the five approximated $105 while sales were only about $110.
Sparse use of the Rat was not a new situation. During the last
two fiscal years. Food and Vending Services operated at losses of
between $7,000 and $18,000 “because of rising costs," said Hosie.
Labor costs have risen 8 percent and food costs have gone up 11.6
percent. This year’s Food Service budget earmarks only $1.3
million for labor costs, $42,000 less than what was spent last year.
“The Rat has always been a nice place to go for friendship; to
do homework or just drop in for a glass of beer,” said one student.
With the Sunday cutback students must find an alternate place.
Most students expressed feelings like, “It’s a shame,’* and “I don’t
come here on Sundays, anyway,” when asked for their comment.
Many felt that it should remain open for those students who
wanted to take advantage of its services cm Sundays.

To the Editor.

Welcome home
Bruce Beyer is coming home tomorrow. He has been in Swedish
and Canadian exile for seven and one half years. He will be arrested as
soon as he crosses the Peace Bridge. Ramsey Clark says so. He knows.
Whan Beyer turned his draft card in to the federal government in 1967,
Ramsey Clark was the U.S. Attorney General; now, he is Bayer's
defense attorney. He received word late Monday night (and quickly
telephoned Bill Berry, another of the original Buffalo Nine, who
quickly telephoned another concerned individual who relayed the
message to The Spectrum) that Beyer will be arrested on charges of
bailiumping and additional charges of illegal flight to avoid
prosecution, two federal offenses.
No charges should greet Bruce Beyer upon his re-entry into the
United States. And now that two exist, they should be dropped,
immediately

Welcome Bruce Beyer home tomorrow on the American side of
the Peace Bridge at noon. He fought against an unjust war so that we
wouldn't have to fight in it. Never forget that.

Resign
Who is this Barry Rubin and what gives him the right to run
around Ellicott and rip down campaign posters of one Scott Chernick,
who ran for Ellicott Area Council IRC President and lost? Rubin, IRC
Vice-President for Activities, did not resign his post on the IRC
Election and Credentials Committee when his roommate ran against
Chernick. Because he didn't resign then and because he went around
ripping down Chernick's posters, Rubin should resign now and save
everyone involved in the proceedings at IRC the trouble of dealing with
him in the future. Rubin has denied all the allegations against him, even
though there are witnesses who have confirmed the charges in print. He
it not telling the truth. He must be kidding.
The strange and terrible saga of internal bickering at IRC continues
with IRC Vice-President Stephanie Freund, who says, 'The committee
decided that since Barry thought he was doing the right thing, nothing
serious had occurred." Then she admits that Chernick may have been
wronged. Then she says, according to today's front page, that Rubin
was directed to write an apology to Chernick and that he did receive a
fair shake. Then she says that IRC did not have a housing list with
which to check votes, when the Housing Office claims that such a list
did exist by September 25.
Sound wishy-washy? It reminds one of another elected public
official whose namesake made cars. He, too, pardoned a buddy of his.
She is not telling the truth. She, too. must be kidding.

A new ID
We were privately hoping that administration officials had actually
slipped by Student Association (SA) representatives the design for the
ID card without the date of birth and signature. What a story it would
have made!
Alas. SA representatives currently in office actually okayed the
card, minus the date of birth and signature. Whether they were not
briefed well enough before the meeting or whether they were simply
overwhelmed by the administrational scenario unfolding before them,
they blew it.
However, the issue is far from dead. Now that all officials in Capen
and in Talbert have virtually agreed that a new ID card with date of
birth and signature will be designed and issued, the question becomes
when, or more pointedly, how soon?
To hasten the procedure, knowing how slowly things move and
knowing how some decisions are made behind very closed doors
(although The Spectrum has been invited to the next meeting}, it is
hereby recommended that “someone" sponsor a massive ID card
burning in the fountain area in back of Squire Hall. The stench of
25.000 plastic coated ID cards burning in the wind would definitely
reach Capen Hall on the Amherst Campus.
The tactic is simply. If no one on this campus has an ID card, new
ones would have to be issued immediately. Then there would be no
more nonsense about sheriff's cards on campus and we would all live
happily ever after.

opinion on#' few statements he made in his letter.
1 can understand why Mr. Senefelder III would
“wholeheartedly support the decision to stop
federally funded abortions... of society's most
innocent human beings.” However, if we consider
only tax dollars in this situation, it would cost the
government a much greater sum to support all the
children bom in the U.S. This is assuming a poor
woman who would not have a federally funded
abortion would bear the child, as opposed to
attempting to induce an abortion. In any event, I do
not support abortions, but at the same time I would
not deny .any woman the right to have one. You
might ask why. Birth control and/or sterilization is
not free upon demand in this country. Although
there arc many clinics which provide birth control,
they are hot always administered under the best
medical conditions. Furthermore, where in the book
of life does it say that birth control is the sole
responsibility of the woman?

When birth control and/or sterilization become free

in birth control, abortions might become

Confining interview locations

Welcome Bruce Beyer home

To the Editor.

To the Editor:

Last-week along with a few hundred other UB
students 1 had a job interview arranged through the
Placement Office in Hayes B.
Large companies from around the country send
out recruiters to college campuses. Many of these
recruiters are on the road months at a time. They
visit a number of cities every week, living out of
suitcases in motels. They fly to their home city on
weekends to check in with their companies and wash
their clothes only to take off to another city in a
couple of days.
The mood of the interviewer and interviewee are
of prime importance. I was waiting for my interview
in a large hallway in Hayes B. The interviewer called

my name and led me through a door that led to what
seemed like a 5 x 6 foot closet with a desk and two
chairs. This is what UB makes these interviewers sit
in hours a day for a few days. Imagine what it would
be like to spend a few days in a closet talking to
people. Anyone in his right mind would be adversely
affected by this. I believe in the long run this is only
hurting the chances of UB students in getting these
Jobs. The recruiters might also be hesitant about
. coming back to UB because of the conditions they
are forced to work under.
There must be some better system that could be
set up to relieve this crowding problem. This should
be looked into for the sake of our jobs and the
sanity of company recruiters.

Bruce Beyer is coming home tomorrow. Though
because of my heavy personal and emotional
involvement in the situation, I may tend to
exaggerate the immediate effects of his return, it is
probably not possible to over-estimate its historical
significance. It is of extreme importance that all his
friends and supporters gather to welcome him back
at the Buffalo side of the Peace Bridge on Thursday,
October 20 at 12 noon.
What Bruce is talking about is the battle for
history the prevention of future Vietnam*. In the
United States, the war on Vietnam has come
generally to be regarded (if it is regarded at all) as a
well-intentioned mistake. The reality of the war as a
well-planned, cynical, and racist attempt at capitalist
world domination has become shrouded in a
mindless belief that it can’t happen again.
Bruce is coming back to destroy this myth, tq.

jail because of it, and he needs all the help he can
get. Please come down to the Peace Bridge tomorrow

Arab refugees
To the Editor.
Around the world we hear about Arab refugees.
Who caused these problems'! would like to give you
a short briefing in Israel history.
On November 29, 1947, the General Assembly
of the U.N. adopted a resolution declaring the
partition of mandated Palestine into an Arab and a
Jewish state. The following morning the Arab
League announced its plan for “the occupation of
Palestine by the armies of the League’s member
states and
the forcible prevention of \tat
establishment of the Jewish state” (New York
Times, November 30, 1947). On April 10, 1948, the
U.N. Palestine commission reported to the Security
Council; “Armed Arab bands from neighboring Arab
states have infiltrated into the territory of Palestine
and together with local Arab forces are defeating the
purpose of the partition by acts of violence.” The
responsibility for the launching of hostilities has
never been denied by the Arab states. Mr. Jamal
Husseini, in charge of the Palestine Arab Higher
Committee, told the Security Council on April 23,
“We have never concealed the fact that we began the
fighting.”

Local skirmishes were followed on May IS,
1948 by a full-scale invasion of Israel by the regular
forces of Egypt, Jordan, Syria, Lebanon and Iraq,
with contingents from Saudi Arabia and Yemen. The
same day the Egyptian foreign minister cabled the
Security Council; ‘The Royal Egyptian government
declared that
the Egyptian armed forces have
started to enter Palestine.” Thus was set in motion
the events that subsequently created the Arab
...

refugee problem.
Finally, from the Jordan daily newspaper,
Falastin February 19, 1949: “The Arab states which
had encouraged the Palestine Arabs to leave their
homes temporarily in order to be out of the way of
the Arab invasion armies, have failed to keep their
promise to help these refugees. I hope we all can
help them soon.”

Peace and land
To the Editor:

Mr. Schiller’s Oct. 7 letter to The Spectrum
“Arab Peace Initiatives” and Mr. Prince’s Oct. 14
“The Modern State”
letter to The Spectrum
follow the Zionist media’s usual approach in
distorting historical facts, and evading the real issue
namely, Israel’s premeditated aggression and
Nazi-like crimes. Hence, it becomes necessary to
provide the readers with the following facts:
1. Israel was, in fact, the first to reject the United
Stations’ 1947 Partition Resolution. As proof. The
New York Time* reported the story of Arab villages
and towns which were savagely ravaged and occupied
by the Zionists loi« before the 1948 war broke out
Gazaza on Dec. 21, 1947; Haifa on Feb. 21. 1948;
Deir Yassin on April 10, 1948; Jaffa on April 26,
1948; Acre on April 27, 1948; and Safad on May 7,
1948. Not even Mr. Begin, the Israeli Prime Minister
Irgun
could deny that his terrorist organization
deliberately massacred thousands of
Zvai Leumi
unarmed Palestinian Arabs, butchered and mutilated
old men, women and children, and raped and
disembowfed young girls and pregnant women? It
was in this Nazi-like manner that the Israeli
succeeded in forcibly evicting more than a million of
the actual owners of Palestine long before the 1948
war.
2. On the other hand, the Arabs objected to the
1948 Partition Resolution on sound legal grounds as
any impartial observer would attest. They rightly
stilted that:
a. The U.N. had no jurisdiction according to
its Charter to partition any land or country;
b. The ovation of the Zionist State would
lead to the displacement of the Arab Palestinians as
was illustrated by the U.S. Special Committee on
Palestine’s report which was published in September
1947;
Although the Jewish community in
c.
Palestine constituted in 1948 only 33 percent of the
population, the Partition Resolution accorded to the
Zionist State 54 percent of Palestine, while the

terrorism, and expansionist aggression. Ben Gurion,
the founder of Israel, said to the Israelis in 19S0:
“This is not the real map of Israel You have to
strive by conquest or by diplomacy to establish the
Israeli empire which must cover the while territory
from the Nile to Euphrates."
Moshe Dayan, the present Israeli Foreign
Minister, declared on Feb. 12, 1952:
“It lies upon the Israeli Army to carry out the
fight with the ultimate object of erecting the Israeli
—

-

empire.”

-

Menaham Begin, Israel’s Prime Minister, stated
on Oct. 12, 1955 that he deeply believed in
launching preventive war against the Arab States to
achieve two targets: the annihilation of the Arab
power, and the expansion of the Israeli territory.
More recently, the Israeli Government has
authorized the establishment of new settlements in
the occupied territories. This move has been widely
condemned by the peace-loving people of the world
as an act of overt expansionist aggression. President
Carter has bravely denounced Israel’s illegal action
describing it as an obstacle to peace. He has also
called upon Israel to recognize the legitimate rights
of the Palestinian people.
The U.N. General Assembly and Security
4.
-

Council issued numerous resolutions condemning
Israel for its violations of the U.N. Charter and the
Geneva Convention on Human Rights. In a Feb.,
1976 resolution, the U.N.’s Commission on Human
Rights condemned Israel for having committed war
crimes against the Arab civilians. In Sept., 1977, the
U.N. denounced Israel for its torture of the Arabs in
the occupied territories.
Norman Dacey cites numerous examples of
Israel’s violation of human rights: the destruction of
property, the collective penalty, and the forcible
transfer and deportation of the native Arab
inhabitants.
Furthermore, the Israeli League for Human and
Civil Rights has accused Israel of ill-treating its own
Arab citizens as well as the inhabitants of the
occupied territories in flagrant violation of the
Geneva Convention. Dr. Israel Shahak, Chairman of
that League and Professor at the Hebrew University
of Jerusalem, declared in 1976:
“The Israeli occupation regime in the conquered
territories is one of the most cruel and repressive

Dr. Shahak has also condemned the silence of
the Nazi-like crimes
many Israelis concerning

5. In 1967, Israel occupied Egyptian, Syrian, and
Palestinian land by force of aggression. Despite six
years of continuous U.S. mediation and U.N.
initiatives, the Israelis refused to rclingquiah the land
they usurped. Hence, the Arabs
having exhausted
all peaceful means of regaining their legitimate rights
had no alternative but to wage war for the sake of
realizing a just peace. Today, Israel’s accelerated
coloniaUzation of the Golan Heights, Sinai, and the
West Bank (six settlements last week!) poses a
definite threat to world peace.
Israel will have to choose between peace and
Arab land. She could have one or the other, but not
both. Land no longer provedes security. The 1973
War proved that.
The Arabs are striving for a just peace. They
have repeatedly stated, in their peace initiatives, that
they are willing to sign a peace treaty with Israel if it
would relinquish the occupied Arab territories and
restore the legitimate rights of the Palestinian

Finally, it is quite inbelievable that anyone
should be proud of being a fascist Zionist. We need
only quote Mr. Nathan Chofshi, an early Jewish
settler of Palestine, who had the courage to admit
openly:

“We came and turned the native Arabs into

tragic refugees. And still we dare to slander and
malign them, to besmirch their name. Instaed of

in your editorial “Support WBFO” I wasn’t offended,
at first.
I agree very much with your position that weneed
WBFO and our support is necessary I also wouldurgs
all students to give their support. For a minute I was
thinking The Spectrum had potential, until I got to the
part about WBAI.
Why did you feel it necessary to ruin a perfectly
good editorial by mentioning a subject you know
nothing about WBAI.
To begin with, WBFO as you mentioned is part of
National Public Radio. WBAI is part of PACIFICA.
There’s a big difference.
Second, WDYC, WFUV and WNCN are New York
City radio stations that are not commercial and would
serve as a better comparison with WBFO because they
are more similar.
Third, to reduce the unfortunate situation of
WBAI to a support too diverse is like saying “New
York City almost went bankrupt because sanitation
worken are overpaid.” The many problems at WBAI
are complex and have a long history behind them.
Sir, I recommend that in the future you limit your
writing to subjects you know something about. Don’t
live up to my expectations.

Trivial UGL talk
To the Editor.

I submit this letter in response to the letter
“Too much talk” of Friday, October 7, 1977, by
William Henry Jones and Daniel F. Maker regarding
the noisiness in UGL. I would like for this letter to
be more or less addressed to these gentlemen.
The UGL as any library is primarily a place for
study, and not for socializing, as I have seen it being
used on several occasions. Of course, the
conversation that went on, if loud, would be
annoying and distracting to me in my efforts to
accomplish work. By principle and theory you
Jones A Maker) are
(addressing Messers.
unquestionably in the right, but let us look at a little
common sense.
First of all, everyone knows that UGL by nature
is not the quietest library on campus. If you prefer
much quiet, I guarantee that you will find
Lockwood (now Abbott) a place of strict quiet while
UGL is a place where studying is done in a less rigid
manner.
to the particular library
Everyone
goes
depending upon the mood they are in so that they
may study most effectively. If UGL is too noisy,
there is Lockwood, Health Sciences, SEL, and
several other places, or just some empty classroom
somewhere. Everyone experiences this same problem
but for a person who really wants to study there is
always a place to be found. You just seek it out.
I have been studying in UGL since it first
opened in January 1974. If one spot was too moisy
for me, there was always another quieter area to be
found, especially now since the extra rooms of
Diefendorf Annex have been added to the library.
It’s so terrible?
Secondly, and every importantly, your other
fellow students are not “selfish inconsiderate
bastards” but they are human beings with human
frailties such as talking when they should not. Where
there are people there will be some degree of noise
or conversation. That is human nature, but human
nature also provides for people to adapt to their
environment and act accordingly. In Lockwood
Library the rule of nature is quiet and I And that this
rule has always been respected even by our fellow
students who are talkative in UGL.
Thirdly, and most importantly, I agree that
talking in UGL becomes a problem at times but is it
such a serious one that we would have “police
patrols” to enforce quiet? I would rather have the
UGL be a noisy discoteque packed with people
dancing on the tables than see “fascism!” As it
stands UGL is still far from, being such a roudy place
as that. For the most part, with the little noise that
does occur there you should really And little trouble
in phasing out that distraction and accomplishing
your work properly, provided you really are
concentrating and into your work as “serious”
minded students to begin with. I do feel that most
students there arc serious in their own way, othewisc
they wouldn’t be there.
Fourthly, I felt that some response was due
because your letter happens every year, but with all
the other important issues going on now, t never
intended to write so lengthy on such trivial bullshit
as talking in UGL.

In reply to these suggestions I would first like to

As I write this now I hope more than anything
else that the editors erf this paper are kind enough to
print my letter as a caution to all SUNY students
against taking jobs with the Universities unless they
lave i healthy cache of money to pad them for a

I was hired by UB this past September 7th to
as a lab assistant here in n&lt;« i»ngn«g»
laboratories on an hourly bash. The following day I
signed all the papers necessary to finalize my
employment (to which funds had previously been
approved through the correct channels, etc.) and put
me on the payroll. I had been told by my supervisor
when I was hired that it could be from four to six
weeks before my first paycheck was to arrive, and 1
agreed to these terms knowing that my financial
situation would get “tight” for me but that it would
suffice. As of this writing I am in my sixth week of
work and in severe financial straights, but
“something has happened;” people got misinformed,
accounts got confused, papers got mislaid, and I got
the brunt of H. In any event, my paycheck has not
arrived. Fortunately, I had heard of an organization
of the University through which I could borrow up
to seventy-five percent of the amount due
interest-free. I investigated (with a great deal of ehlp
from Richard Loew, for which I am grateful), and
found this to be true. However, because of SUNY’s
payroll system, I was only permitted to borrow
seventy-five percent of whatever amount that first
check would have been. Therefore, tough as of this
moment that I write these words Oust completing
my third bi-monthly pay period) 1 have EARNED
over $200 working for this University, I have to
show for it a check in the amount of $40 which is in
fact NOT my pay check but payment for a loan
AGAINST it. Furthermore, I have been informed by
the payroll department that my first check will not
arrive until some time in the second week in
November.
This means that in two weeks I will again be
forced to borrow money against my paycheck in
order to function somewhat normally. This also
means that, because I am an independent student
responsible for my own education and maintenance,
and because I will not receive my total earings foj
this semester until late next January due to the
payroll backlog, I will be unable to register for my
spring semester courses until after I have actually
begun to ATTEND them because I will, until that
time, NOT HAVE ENOUGH MONEY TO PAY THIS
SEMESTER’S BILL!
Among the suggestions for a solution made to
me by some friends and employees of the University
work

were:
1) That I take out a loan from a bank to meet
expenses until such time as I may be able to repay it;
2) That I ask my parents to forward temporary
financial assistance; and
3) That I ask the University to extend my (Fall
’77) tuition payment date to February of next year

(1978).

thank those who offend their ideas and ay:
1) Why should I have to pay interest on money
that, but to an error of file University, I would have
otherwise collected interest-free? (And I mean ALL
OF IT!);
2) Why should my PARENTS, who are still
supporting several siblings, be asked to compensate
for that error? Also, since an “independent” status is
damned close to impossible to gain and keep in the
eyes of this institution, I HAVE not, DO not. and
WILL not accept any monetary assistance in any
tom under any conditions from any private outside
source to avoid jeopardizing that status; and
3) God couldn’t bend the rules of this place.
So here 1 am, with my blessed precious forty
dollars of BORROWED money, anxiously awaiting
that November day when, after I have worked well
over six hundred dollars’ worth of time to this
school, I win receive my first paycheck (minus the
money I will have borrowed against it and minus
taxes), in the amount of maybe eight dollars.
Meanwhile, I now have a telephone bill for $41.56, a
pharmacist’s biU for $12.00, a doctor’s bill for
$32.00, my tuition and room bill in the horizon, no
food in my refrigerator, piles upon piles of laundry
to do and no soap with which to do it, not to
mention LITTLE things like no occasional drinks
with friends, no weekend excursions home or
elsewhere, nothing like a pizza with my roommate
just because I feel like it, NOTHING
PERIOD.
Finally I would like to do a little wrist-slapping.
If I had the money, time, energy, desire, or sense of
humor to do it, I would bring suit against this system
for whatever credit damages this mess will incur to
me. But I haven’t any of these things. I only have the
material. According to the New York State Labor
Laws, I, being of the labor division “Clerical A
other,” and other University employees like me,
have been SHAT upon. I realize that delays in
payroll processing are caused by administrative
technicalities, but in an institution of this magnitude
cases like mine are disgraceful and inexcusable. Upon
inquiring of the Buffalo branch of the United States
Department of Labor’s legal information center how
illegal it is to withhold a person’s (of my tabor class)

like to make sure that the aforementioned, Donna,
Sharon, Mrs. Reed, and Paulette in Payroll and Mrs.

One of the mott important aspects of the cate is
the defendants’ backgrounds. Gramaglia, Gary Atti
and Grisanti are all Buffalo Police Officers. Both Atti
and Gramaglia were suspended after refusing to
appear in a line-up before witnesses to the murder.
Grisanti was suspended shortly after the
arraignment. Richard Turchiarelli is the brother of
liberal mayoral cnadidate Conald Turchiarelli.
The grand jury’s report implies a specific
sequence of events. All of the suspects were together
because they had been attending a stag party for
Richard Atti. Shortly after 2 ajn., Long and the
suspects were apparently involved hi a traffic
incident at the comer of Kenmore and Starin. At
2:20 a.m. Long was dragged from his Porsche just
outside his North Drive apartment and severely
beaten. About 10 minutes later, the seven
manslaughter suspects allegedly discussed the beating
with Grisanti at Mulligan’s Night dub on Bertel Ave.
and later at the Three Coins Restaurant in
Tonawanda. There were witnesses to the traffic
accident and to the murder itself.
Judge Stiller has given the defense counsels until
November 28 to file pre-trial motions. The special
grand jury will reconvene on October 24 to continue
the investigation.

briefly taught at the University of

moved West to San Jose State
College where he taught basic
biology for 13 years.
No federal aid
In 1967, Smith left the
confines of Northern California
for the bright sunshine of Buffalo.
He accepted a position teaching
introductory freshman biology
courses; a move he has spent the
past ten years regretting. His
reasons are clear and distinct. He
had originally hoped to get federal
dollars to finance a research
project, knowing full well that the
University could not guarantee
him anything.
In his first two years at
Buffalo, Smith clung to the belief
that it was still possible for him to
receive the grant he dreamed of.
But in 1969, his dreams were
shattered when the Washington
dollars ran out, due to the
collapse of federal grants in
biology. The net result was that
Smith became stuck in a job he
shouldn’t have taken. “I came

many other professors facing
similar circumstances don’t belong
at Buffalo. “I’m one of those
useless people,” he said.
Why, you might ask, hasn’t
Smith tried to escape the rut he is
in? The answer is honest and to
the point. “It’s the only job I
have,” he related. “The U.S.
market is knee-deep in Biology
PhD’s and I’m too old to compete
with 25-year-olds who are willing
to work for half my salary.”
Because
of the unfortunate
situation Smith has put himself
into, he believes that he has been
treated as a “second class citizen
by the University.”

Despite Smith’s displeasure, he
maintains that his teaching
performance has been unaffected
and that he has made the best of
the situation. From
former
students, Smith has learned about
and corrected the mistakes in his
curriculum. He has tailored his
course of study to parallel the
major medical exams which many
of his students plan to take.
“Former students of mine in

Off-Campus Housing
Office still closed

The Off-Campus Housing Office (OCH) remains closed due to
problems experienced in its funding, establishing a location, and
obtaining phone service.
Although it was expected to open in late September, difficulties
have arisen according to Sub Board 1 Treasurer Dennis Black, in trying
to design and run a system using a fraction of the money that was
available last year. “It is not firing to be the kind of operation it has
resources just aren’t
been in the pest,” Black noted,
available.” Black further indicated that Sub Board had allocated all
their monies in August and as a result the Sub Board Board of
Directors will not be donating any additional funds towards the
establishment of the OCH. The only money obtained thus far has come
from the combined budgets of the three Division directors of Squire
HaO. That money will be used to pay the salary of a secretary who will
be working for both Off-Campus Housing and the Division directors.
“Innovative Programming for Squire Union” is expected to contribute
money needed for advertising, but the amount is presently unknown. It
is questionable how further expenses incurred by the office will be
paid.

Squire hjwe also contributed to the delay. After first getting the
approval of the Squire House Council and Squire Hall Board of
Directors to share the same headquarters, OCH, the Division Directors
of Squire Hall, and Health Care and Publications have had to
coordinate the combination of three offices into one. In addition, it
was necessary to obtain the services of Maintenance to facilitate the
actual moving process. Having overcome these hurdles, however, OCH
is presently awaiting the installation of phone service requested a
month ago. According to Hack this should take at least a week to ten
days to be accomplished, placing the official opening date still further
into the future.
For those students beginning their search for off-campus housing,
help is available by calling the OCH office at 831-SS34. A visit to the
office will produce a brochure listing average rents, utilities, major
landlords as well as descriptions of various housing areas in the
University vicinity. Updated listings have been placed in the Browsing
Library and on the OCH bulletin board in front of Group Legal
Services.

Seldman said that many

to establish
awarded
recycling centers. The National
Black Veterans Association, for
instance, received $300,000 from
the Department ofCommerce.
Cities,
states
and
towns
throughout the nation are also
participating in the recycling effort
on a growing scale, according to
Seldman. He enumerated an
impressive list of cities which have
home pick-up on a regular
city-wide basis. This method,
termed “separation recycling” has
been gaining popularity. Portland,
Oregon; Tallahassee, Florida; New
Massachusetts;
and
Oxford,
Newark, New Jersey are just four
examples from the ever-growing
list.
(Colorado,
Five
states
Massachusetts, California, Oregon
and Washington) have state-wide
recycling centers. These centers,
along with many others, are taking
sides in the controversies currently
flaring in the recycling camps. Not
many people are opposed to
recycling: as someone said, ‘That’s
a
little like being against
motherhood.” However, there are
disagreements as to how it should
be done .Many centers are in favor
of source separation or low
technology recycling.
The principle behind low
technology recycling is individual
awareness and responsibility. If
consumers take responsibility for
separating their own garbage, they
will necessarily become more
conscious of its contents, and

expensive and kinks in the systems
have yet to be ironed out. “Most of
the high technology recycling
places are failing. The technology is
not really developed yet,” said
Stumm. “The problem with
garbage is that it varies. Lots of
unexpected things can happen.”
High technology systems do not
underscore the need for individual
responsibility and conservation. In
fact they eliminate it.This is one of
the major reasons the systems have
drawn such opposition. Though
many corporate giants and the
federal government support high
technology, the systems are seen as

encouraging the continuation of a
wasteful and irresponsible mode of

consumerism which will,, in the
end, again place environmental
consciousness in the backs of

American ilninds.

Responsibility fo; recycling and
conservation cannot be placed
solely
on the shoulders of
technology and industry; People
can participate in the recycling
process in many ways. Offering
time, money or vehicles to a nearby
recycling center is one way, buying
beverages in returnable bottles,

�National Fuel Gas turns off the heatfor winter

Editor’s note: The following report on the shut-off of gas
service by National Fuel Gas was compiled by the staffof
the Peoples Power Coalition of Western New York.
The denial of access to space heat and hot water is the
denial of the right to Ufa liberty and the pursuit of
happiness. The denial of this basic right, which is assumed
by all Americans, is a step which can be taken after only
the most serious consideration and the most rigorous due
process.
In Western New York today, we have a situation
where 81,491 people are faced with the denial of this
right. These 81,000 people are more than 60 days in
arrears on their National Fuel Gas bills, and are threatened
with a shut-off of their gas service. This is what we mean
when we refer to the shut-off crisis.
Because no amount of hearings will guarantee due
process to these people before the freezing weather sets in,
the Peoples Power Coalition is calling for an immediate
moratorium on gas shut-offs, followed by an extensive,
independent investigation of the shut-off crisis.
Why we need an immediate cessation of gas shut-offs,
followed by a complete, thorough investigation of the
utility shut-off crisis, and why the investigation should be
carried out by an independent team made up of federal,
state and local officials, as well as PSC consumer group
representatives:
,

1. The Problem is Unique
The crisis is directly related to National Fuel’s
protracted work stoppage during the first half of 1977. An
immediate ban on shut-offs would help and could be lifted
after the investigation is completed and the problem is
somewhat cleared up. We project April 15th as the date to
lift the ban. However, as a matter of policy, no shut offs
between October and April should be allowed, and we will
continue to push for concrete laws which will enact such a
policy.
A) What problems were caused by the strike?
The billing process hgs been in a shambles, and the
consumer has not been receiving a semblance of due
process. The consumer’s right to a regular meter reading
has been negated!
1) At the September 20th PSC hearings it was alleged

that even when consumers read their own meters, NFG
dumped the cards in the trash and sent out estimated

readings, since then were too few employees to process
them.
2) Many people, faced with hopelessly high gas bills
following the blizzard, and a company which provided no
service during the strike, decided to apply their meager
fundp . to other bills. A person getting a $13 welfare
allotment for fuel can’t get any satisfaction from applying
that $13 to an average winter’s fuel bill. NPG’s hard line,
all or nothing payment policy is a crucial element in the
hopelessness which causes many arrears.

Social Service workers that NFC would no longer accept
partial payments made in compliance with section 12 of

Social Services stopped using this option, and consumers

situation will be rectified.
However, these procedural abuRi are common and

�Binghamton downs
Muddyfield endsfive game
UB rugby team, 11-0 win streakfor soccer BuUs
Saturday, the UB Rugby team was defeated by the Binghamton
Barbarians, ll-O. Playing before a crowd of hundreds, the young,
inexperienced UB team went into Saturday’s match hoping for its first
win of the season.
The first half opened with the Barbarians in total control. Spurred
by an excellent kicking game, the Barbarian backs advanced in the ball
easily into Buffalo territory. The Barbarians scored a try for 4 points,
missing the conversion. Binghamton then drove forward once more and
scored a 3-point penalty kick to make the score 74) at the half.
The second half began differently. Pue to the 1hard hitting of the
scrum, led by Bemie “Mad Dog” Schneider, the Barbarian backs found
it increasingly difficult to strike into UB turf. Then the UB backs came
to life. Clean passes and strong running, led by strong side wing Sean
Duffy enabled the Bulls to repeatedly advance the ball deep into
Binghamton territory. On one occasion, the UB scrum carried Tom
Saitta into the Binghamton goal area where he touched the ball down
for an apparent score. However, the referee blew the whistle before the
ball was touched down because he lost sight of the ball.
Good half
The Bulls nearly scored on two more occasions but the final
whistle blew and the game ended with Binghamton winning 11-0.
Buffalo coach Mike Regan commented; “It took the whole first half
for us to get our act together, but after we did, it was our game.”
The Bulls take to the road Saturday against a tough, experienced
Syracuse team. They have four more matches this fall and an eight
game schedule this spring.
The team is always looking for new players and no experience is
necessary. It practices at 4:30 Monday through Friday (except

The soccer Bulls give-game unbeaten streak has
ended. Geneseo defeated Buffalo 2-0 in what Coach
Sal Esposito described as “... one of the worst
games I’ve seen my teams play.” The defeat ’dropped
Buffalo’s record to 5-3-1 while Geneseo improved its
mark to 6-1-2.
Both teams had difficulty getting started on the
wet, muddy Rotary practice field. First half play was
marred by poor passing and the general inability of
eithet team to set up a consistent offensive attack.
The Bulls could muster only six shots on goal while
the Knights sent five shots at Buffalo goalie Mark
Celeste. Both goaltenders played well as they picked
up, and held onto, any balls that were sent in the
vicinity of their respective nets. As a result, the first
half ended with neither dub on the scoreboard. “We
should have had some goals,” said Buffalo fullback
Mike Allan. “We had some good chances.”
Stopped cold
Hard pressing Genesco put the pressure on in the
early moments of the second half. But the UB
defense and Celeste stopped them cold. Celeste was
particularly effective as he made a diving stop on a
shot by Kevin Senft that was “labled” for the top
right corner of the goal.
The Bulls were unable to get past midfield in the
early stages of the period as the Knights constantly
broke up the Buffalo attack. “We were outhustled
and weren’t helping each other out,” explained Bull
winger Jim Rudolph. “We didn’t seem to be working
together as a unit, they were beating us to the ball
especially at midfield,” added Allan.
Buffalo did put on a somewhat better offensive
show as it started to work together during the
middle part of period. The Bulls buzzed around the
Geneseo goal but just couldn’t put the ball in their
opponents’ net. Consecutive shots by Rudolph and
Barry Kleeman were blocked by the Knights’ Mark
McNiven, who played a strong game in goal for
Geneseo.

remaining minutes of the match as they tried In

to score and so went down to their third loss of the
season.
Some of the Buffalo players felt that the fielfl
conditions had a lot to do with the game’s outcome.
But the displeased Esposito disagreed. “They had fe
play on the same field too,” he said. He was
especially unhappy about his team’s play, whichfee
termed ‘lackadaisical.’ ‘The two goals were fee

mistake.” Rudolph agreed with fee coach, ‘fee

Editor's note: This is the second in a pair of'articles
previewing the National Basketball Association. This
one outlines the Midwest end Pacific Division races.

1. Denser Nuggets The Nuggets have, by their
performance of last year, erased any doubts about
their being a top-flight team in either league. Their
front court of flamboyant David Thompson,
high-scoring Dan Isael, and defensive specialist
Bobby Jones, is one of the best in the game. Their
one weakness last year was the lack of s top-flight
guard. The Nuggets feel they have rectified the
situation with the acquisition of ea-Set, Brian
Taylor (from Kansas City).

The Pistons ham the
unusual problem of pomming too mueft talent.
They not only have one legitimate mperatar at
center, Buffalo Bob Lanier, they have several players
who believe that they are superstars, and want to be
treated accordingly. Guards Ralph Simpson, Kevin
Porte. Chris Ford, and Eric Money fought with
beleaguered Coach Herb Brown, all year Jong over

they have too much dissension and inner turmoil to

The Lakers had the

Most Valuable Player Karen* Abdul labbar. Daring
the off-season, the Lakers acquired a supporting cast.

Bill Walton, Maurice Lucas, Bab Gross, Johnny Daws
and Lionel HolUns returning in tact, they remain a
mild threat to repeat. Laatgear, they sustained no
maior injuries; even BiD.J£alton missed only a
handful of games. This is- nnt likely to happen two
years in a row. Consequently, the Blazers, while still
a strong team, will be an unffiely champion.

After their initial five-point surge, the Lakers slowly chipped away
at the Bulls’ defense, scoring a point here and two points there, pdiile
effectively stymying Buffalo’s offense. Oswego won the game 15-10 to
even the match score.
In the third game, the Lakers didn’t score the first five points
because Buffalo managed totally first. But they did the next best thing
when they pulled off those five tallies after the Bulls had scored once.
The Lakers, who were led by hard-spiking Debbie Adams, held the
Bulls to just three points in that game.
At this point, the Bulls developed another problem, according to
Weinreich. “We were havmg the most trouble with the mental part of
the game,” he said. ‘The confusion lead to a mental letdown and that
brings on disorganization and poor play .”
UB started out the last game much like the others confused and
disorganized, and it didn’t take long for Oswego to build up a 13-5
leadT. But then server Scfalesinger found a .weak spot in the Lakers
lineup and concentrated on it to give the Bulb six straight points. But
when the Oswego coach substituted for the useless player, Schlestnger’s
strategy was foiled and Buffalo soon lost the game and the match.
Weinreich emphasized that the Bulk’ are headed for improvement.
“The bask offense is alright; it’s the mental part of the game that we
have to go after,” he said.

The Great Lakers ran off five straight points in the second game
before the Balls even had a chance to serve. During that game, the Bulls
were often out of position or they failed to call for a ball. Some of that
confusion was due to the inexperience of the setters, freshmen Barb
Starbuck and Mary Ellen Weber. However, Weinreich was pleased with
their performances. "They overplayed their positions a little, but we
should be able to work that out,” he said. “They played a good game,

The volleyball Bulls continued to struggle with two new setters
and an unfamiliar offense during a 3-1 loss to the Oswego Great Lakers
Friday. But despite the team’s poor showing thus far this year, coach
Peter Weinreich expects his players to improve as soon as they adjust to
their new circumstances
Buffalo’s play was characterized by disorganization. Oswego
scored point after point by hitting the ball to a place where a Bull
should have been. “The players weren’t sure of their positions,”
explained Weinreich. “They tended to overplay their positions, which
caused some confusion.”
Buffalo picked up its only win of the day in the first game. The
Lakers lead early, but with the score 9-4, Buffalo’s Sue Trabert served
up
points to put the Bulls ahead by three. Oswego came back to
tie the score, but then Buffalo’s Hilary Schlesinger got the serve hit an
overpowering spike to the Lakers which got the serve back for UB.
Backed by a noisy crowd of football players, Buffalo went on to win
that game 16-14.

University. In last year’s meet, the Bulls managed
only a third place finish, behind Niagara and Buffalo
State. However, things may be different this year.
At this point, Niagara remains the team to beat.
The Purple Eagles defeated the Bulls handily in the
beginning of the season, and have the potential to
win today. But the Bulls have beaten both Buffalo
State and Canisius in previous races this year, and are
looking to repeat those performances.
Coach Walter Gantz knew in the beginning of
the season that his team would have to rely on
younger runners to carry the team through, and they
certainly have done just that. Three of the top seven
runners ate freshmen and two others are competing
at UB for the first time. In spite of its inexperience,
the team has not been unsuccessful.

first Bull in at 2S:4S and he captured second place.
The other scorers were Bruce Goldstein third, Barry
Schindler (sixth), John Ryerson (seventh) and Gene
Schwall (tenth). Places 11 through 1S were taken by
Tim Sheehan, Tony Markut, Greg Freitag, Ken Dole,
and Raul Allaire, all UB runners.
In a four school meet at RIT, the Bulls were
defeated by LeMoync, but picked up wins over RIT
and Clarkson. Mike Fischer was the fastest Bull
again, touring the 10,000 meter (6% miles) course in
32:32, which was good enough for second place.
Fischer’s time was the ninth best time ever recorded
on the RIT course. John Ryerson and Bruce
Goldstein finished eleventh and twelfth respectively
with times of 33:46 and 34:02. Barry Schindler was
14th in 34:08, and Gene Schwall was 20th in 34:43.

UB got off to a shaky start, dropping the first round to Buffalo
State, a team they had beaten just two days earlier. Several players
would have preferred not to play the Bengals in the first round before
they were fully warmed up, but UB Coach Connie Camnitz thought it
might help get the players on their toes right away. Only co-captain

Last round drama
The UB women watched nervously, breathing a collective sigh of
relief when Rogers and Richerson pulled out the victory for Canisius.
With defeat insured, State lost the subsequent final match.
Camnitz was proud of her squad. “Everybody played under
pressure,” she said. “It was a good playing experience.” Camnitz likes
the idea of the Big Four, with each player playing a eight game pro set
against three different opponents with three different styles.
According to Camnitz the strength of this year’s team lies in its
overall depth. Few teams are as good at fourth and fifth singles and at
second doubles as the Bulls are. Camnitz would like to play young Barb
Zdybowicz more, but just can’t find the room. Zdybowicz and fellow
freshman Sharon Walsky filled in splendidly at second doubles in the

tournament champion.
With UB leading Niagara S-l, the entire team gathered around to
cheer on senior Sharon Ackerman. Playing under enormous pressure
with everything on the line, Ackerman crushed Marge Carlino 8-2.
“You can’t worry about the team in that situation,” said Ackerman.
“You’ve got to care about your score or it wrecks your concentration.”
Ahead 16-14, the UB team turned their attention to the remaining
two matches between Canisius and Buffalo State. If it came down to a
tiebreaker, UB had 145 games won and State had 128 with two
matches to play. It seemed as if UB had the win locked up since two
wins for State would create a 16-16 tie and UB would win the
tiebreaker 145-144. However, Canisius’ Jean Rogers and Sandy
Richerson forced the State second doubles team into a tiebreaker,
giving State an opportunity to win an extra game and tie UB at 145.

The truth is a lot of compact stereo systems
really are not worth buying. So no matter
how cheap the system is, it often is just
that, cheap! That's why we have put together this quality Stereo Component
System for $349.00. This system features
a Garrard 440M with a Shure Cartridge
turntable, a Technics by Panasonic FM/AM
Stereo Receiver and two Genesis Model 6
Loudspeakers. Now there's a lot of technical reasons why these components work
well together but what's important is how
it Sounds to you. So go to your depart

ment store, listen to their systems, then
remember, at Transcendental Audio we
don't sell a less expensive system but at
this price there’s nothing better.

&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 EUicott Complex

An administrator’s nightmare’
by Robert Herb in
Spectrum Staff Writer
Vice President for Facilities Planning, John Telfer, said
at a symposium Wednesday that he does not think the
EUicott Complex was desinged to control students. He

claimed, however, that such a possibility does exist,
although he sated he has “found no evidence to prove it
Telfer, along with Assistant Dean of the School of
Architecture and Design, A1 Price, Chairman of Design
Studies Department, Reyner Banham, and Architecture

Professor, Mike Brill, participated in a symposium entitled,
Megastructure: The Design and Development of the EUicott
Complex. The symposium, sponsored by the College of
Urban Studies, well held in 167 Fillmore in the EUicott
Complex.
The symposium was held, according to Brill, to “help

students understand how and why this place (EUicott) is.”
Eight years elapsed from the time the building was
planned and the time “the water was turned on and the first
toilet was flushed,” Brill joked. This explains many of the
problems associated with the Complex.
The present functions of the Complex differ from the
original plans BriU said. For example, 167 Fillmore was
originally designed to be a library, but now houses the
Division of Student Affairs.
Price said EUicott is a megastructure which is a
“building or complex that provides all of the services which
people require organized in a frameworkd.” It is designed,
according to Brill, to “bring a lot of people together.” The
spread-out design of the complex defeats this function, he
said.
Price pointed out that one loses his orientation when in

Hie EUicott nightmare
Banham said,there is a conceptual mistake in the design
of the complex. He explained its creation was based on the
“idea of a self-contained, self-supporting community” but
claimed the designers did not take into account that the
complex is open to the outside community as well. He
maintained, “The public and private parts of EUicott are
totally distinguishable.”
EUicott is “an administrator’s nightmare,” according to
Telfer. He said the complex, funded by the State University
Construction Fund and the State University Dormitory
Fund, was built by two general contractors. The plan of the
complex, he explained, was drastically changed from its
original conception because of tremendous budget cuts
before construction.
One audience member complained that “everything is
the same” in EUicott and that he has “no irritative to move
around.” Some audience members grumbled that the tower
buildings shake in the wind. Other grievances were aired
concerning the number of four and six person rooms. The
reason for this was “budgetary,” according to Telfer.

Underneath

the
visible
restructuring
of the Buffalo
News
and
the

beats
a

quickening pulse of change in the
hearts of both newsrooms as the

November 13 christening of the
News’ Sunday morning edition

draws near.
After
sluggish
years
of
the
inactivity at

financial trauma at the Courier,

employees of both publications
are suiting up for the head-to-head
weekend competition with new
leadership and clear objectives on
one
side,
facing
firm
commitments and high morale on
the other.
When

Warren
millionaire
Buffet purchased the News last
April, he brought to Buffalo a
fervent desire to transform the
into
a
"national"
paper
publication.
The decision to
abandon

Saturday

evenings

and

contest the Courier on Saturday
and Sunday mornings is only part
of Buffet’s effort to pull the News
out of its near dormancy as a
newspaper.

Although many changes at the
Courier were initiated long before
Buffet sounded his trumpets, the
underdog paper responded to the
News’ fanfare with aggressive
policies on several fronts. Staff
members picked up the pace set

by the management’s determined
desire to keep the Courier alive as
a local, family-owned newspaper
and, although competition was

newsroom morale.

Buffet’s arrival prompted the
top editors
who had been with the News for
decades. The men were “eased”
into retirement and replaced with
younger people.
One editor, described as a “real

retirement to make room for a
36-year old replacement. Others
were urged to resign farly (before

movement,” along with

the hiring of seven new reporters,
and the influence of Buffet, will,
in the hopes of some of the
younger reporters, bring an end to
the inveterate smugness that has
led rivals to term the paper the

Buffalo Evening Snooze.
The News,
considered a

though

always

successful and
professional paper, has never had
a reputation of being a journalistic
beehive of activity over the years
“The News has always been the
easiest place to work in town,”
said one staff member, “In terms
of workload, it’s just never been a
demanding place.”
“The number of bodies they
have sitting around never ceases to
amaze me,” related a Courier staff
“We’ve

Buffet’s influence seems to
have had some effect on the
somnolent atmosphere. “In the

reporter, “Now, there seems to be
a move afoot to put people to
work.” Others at the News
noticed the same trend. “People
aren’t sitting around nearly as
much as they used to,” said one
writer. Although the new Sunday
and Saturday morning editions
will mean extra work for the staff,
the increase will be partially offset
by the hiring of the seven new
reporters.
Union consulted
When the Sunday edition was

first proposed, the management of

the

reporters’ union with a desire to
bring off the new editions without
an increase in staff. According to
a staff reporter, union officials
reportedly said something like,

Emotional mom
The focus of the seminar and a main concern of the film is the
exploration of people’s various responses to death. The movie informed
the audience that, intellectually, people retain ideas about death. These
mental conceptions, however, create problems because they disgiisc
genuine emotional responses. Death will always be an abstraction and
people will never know how to relate to the dead.
But we inevitably relate, in a variety of ways, to the dying and the
dead. Usually our relationship with death takes on the form of denial, a
shielding of aB that suggests death: the dying are removed to hospitals
and rest homes out of sight of family, the dead are dressed and made
up to look alive sleeping peacefully in eternal beds.
The elaborate cosmetic ritual is the most conventional way
Westerners handle their dead. Unfortunately, as the movie taught us,
our rituals, loaded with pretentions, push the bereaved into
prophylactic isolation: genuine grief is impeded, emotional catharsis

What follows is the first part 'of a three-part series based on
interviews with Bruce Beyer, a war resister from the Buffalo area who
has been in exile in Sweden apd Canada for the past Vh years.
The reader must excuse any apparent excess of familiarity in this
story . Bruce Beyer and I grew up together in Buffalo. His house was a

brilliant blue expanse of Lajte Ontario framing the right horizon at

If you’re happy and you know it, clap your hands . . .
The children at the Early Childhood Research Center (ECRC),
located at 15 Baldy Hall, have plenty to clap about. Infants and
toddlers there discover themselves and their environment and have a
good time doing it.
in existence for forty years, the center was originally patternedd
after the Ruggles Street Nursery School in Boston. The faculty at that
school hired extra teachers and assumed position as assistant
professors. This core of people developed what is known today as a
vital unit in education. Today, students in all areas, including teaching,
physical education, and psychology, use the Ruggles model of
observation.
Ruth McGrath, Director of ECRC, says, ‘The program has
changed to meet the changing needs of children. The thinking of the
times has also changed,” she adds. “Parents today are more concerned
with the emotional well being of the child.” She feels that “parents
realize their child is more stimulated by being with other children as
opposed to around the house.”
The center enrolls seventy children, from infants to four-year-old
toddlers. It is not a babysitting agency or a day care center facility.
“We are not a service center,” McGrath says, “our objectives are
research and study.”

Mirror study
Research is aimed at synthesizing theories about early childhood
interaction and development, concentrating on personality growth and
individual expression. The center’s own teaching methods emphasize
language comprehension, learning to have a positive attitude toward
kindness, sharing, and life.
The facilities are desinged to accommodate the needs of children.
In three rooms designated for different age groups, kid-sized tables and
chairs enhance an atmosphere of exploration and learning. Behind a
one-way mirror, college students study the children’s psychological and

sociological behavior without interacting with them. Most graduate
students earn their credit through independent study programs.
Volunteers and students in other areas such as nursing and sociology
assist in supervision and research.

Tutoring available

freefrom CMS

The College of Mathematical Science (CMS) offers free tutoring
in Mechanics, Thermodynamics, Math Statistics, Computer Science,
Physics, Engineering and Chemistry to University students.
Under the supervision of CMS faculty advisor Richard Orr,
eleven undergraduate and graduate students tutor individuals and
groups of students. “We can handle problems on any 300 or lower
level course,” Orr said. “There’s always someone here who can
explain a problem a student doesn’t understand.”
One student explained, “Because you’re working with someone
on a one-to-one basis, you can ask more questions and receive more
attention than you ever could in a class of 400. It’s a big help.”
The students who tutor for CMS are volunteers. Orr said that
some tutor because they receive college credits and others because
they receive CMS housing points which affect room priority
rankings. But most of the students genuinely enjoy tutoring and
find it a rewarding experience, Orr commented. “We didn’t have
trouble getting students to be tutors, but we can always use more
volunteers.”
One math tutor said, “It’s fun, and you meet a lot of different
people. Besides, I like helping kids understand what they’re doing.”
Richard Marshall, one of the math, physics and engineering tutors,
stated. “It’s a good experience. The constant review keeps you
sharp.”
Tutoring services are offered Monday-Thursday, 3-10 p.m. and
on Friday from 3-8 p.m. in Rooms 108 and 109 Wilkenson in the
Ellicott Complex. According to Orr, the best time to go for tutoring
and avoid crowds is during the dinner hour from 4:30-6:30 p.m.
The busiest times are weekday evenings and prior to exams.
Students interested in tutoring can contact Orr at the CMS office
(636-2235) for more information.

A day later, on the evening of March }5, 1970, he and four friends
piled into an early-model car, determined to escape into Canada.
“We were so paranoid,’’ he recalls, “we couldn’t find our way out
of Buffalo. When we finally did, we headed in the wrong direction and
had to turn around somewhere in Niagara Falls.”
They drove all night “on an old New York State highway,” past
Albany, up to Watertown and Plattsburg. Fifteen miles outside
Messina, New York, near the Canadian border, Bruce and his five
companions were stopped by the ,Ncw York State Police for a routine

“Everybody hunched oyer in the car, like this,” Beyer said, as he

Beyer flashed what was in his wallet. That gesture, as it turned out,

Friday evening, three of us who put out this
paper viewed a spectacular sunset from our third
floor offices in Squire Hall. It was more than your
typical red rubber ball affair. This one was a
veritable waterfall of color, with streams of blue and
green running diagonally across the sky in between
the crimson and gold, all framed by a misty violet
haze. Basically, the kind of sunset you can’t describe
in a column written on Saturday monring.
Through it all, we kept looking up from our
typewriters to go running toward the window for
another look, as we continually stared out with our
big mouths agape, as we took turns saying, “God,
stood the tower of Hayes Hall,
that’s gorgeous”

And I’ll nearly freeze to death at Amherst
Main Street was a campus, or at least close to
being a campus. Amherst will never be. They can
plant all the sickly trees in the world, and the place
will just never qualify as a campus. So, as all the
symbolism and charm is stripped from Main Street
with its conversion to whatever they’re going to
convert it to, none of it will be transferred to

—

silhouetted against this princess of a sunset, rising
from the campus below as if to lay claim to the
the
dusk with its
portrait above, piercing
Philadelphian charm and Anglican manner.
And though the tower certainly had no place in
that sunset, no one seemed to mind. It was sort of a
comfort tp see the four faced clock glowing in the
&amp;
distance.
There’s no need to symbolize Hayes Hall
anymore, it’s gone. Yeah, the School of Architecture
has taken it over, I know, but the only real
contribution the century-old building will continue
to make to this University will be in the history

books.

There’s gonna be a point in here somewhere,
have no fear. You see, the entire Main Street campus
is on its way to becoming meaningless. Various
departments will move in, knock down a few walls,
people will confuse the new names with the old, the
buildings will cease to be identifiable with whatever
they always have been identifiable with, but the
actual stone and brick will remain standing The
intangibles that made a collection of buildings a
campus will be gone, vanished, thrown to the
Buffalo winds.
The classic college campuses are infinitely
greater than the sum of their parts. Main Street used
to be that way, if you were able to look past the
washboard walled Annexes. In places on the old
campus, you can hear faint whispers of Ivy League.
You know what I mean, chestnut littered walkways
and everything. And, when the December gales
arrive, I’ll feel warmer walking near Hayes, Crosby
•&gt;,

Amherst.

What I’m talking about goes beyond the long
walks to Ellicott, beyond the buses, beyond the
windswept parking lots and frozen fields of Amherst.
The fact that there is no center to the campus is a
little closer to the point, but not quite there.
beyond
It
what
goes
I’m capable of
transforming into print. There’s something missing at
Amherst that is, or was, present at Main Street and
thus present in its students. And, whatever it is, it’s
missing in you right now.
People who work in Squire have observed a
significant decrease in student traffic through the
building. People who work in Talbert-Capen-Norton
at Amherst have expressed surprise at how empty
the place is.
So where are the students? They’re everywhere,
on
three different campuses in 98 different
buildings. And they’re nowhere, in dozens of buses
and cars, and 198 different walkways and footpaths.
But, as 1 say, this missing ingredient that will
forever keep Amherst from becoming a campus, runs
deeper than this, deeper than additional droning on
about de-centralization, 1 guess.
I am not usually this evasive in my writing,
which can only mean that Whoever extracted this
secret ingredient knew what the hell they were
doing. They’ve got me spinning.
So that sunset I was gloating about wasn’t seen
at Amherst. They have the same sky and everything,
1 know. It’s the atmosphere that’s different. The
strange magnetism that kept drawing us to the
window that night is not out there in the wilderness.
The sun sets differently when looking through
the windows of the past. And as we stared out of the

decaying symbol of the students toward the vacated
symbol of the administration, the crimson and gold
was almost all that was left to rejoice in.

Guest Opinion
1 want to explain why 1 am supporting
Arthur Eve for Mayor of Buffalo; why I believe
the University will benefit from his election in
November, and I also want to reply to a letter
from the “Left” which argues: “Don’t vote
—

Organize.”

I have lived in Buffalo for eight years during
which time the city has been run by a consortium
of Democratic Party politicians along with the
banks, Joe Crangle being the mouthpiece. During
this time, life in this city has gotten worse and
worse. The leftist letter writers remind us that
this is a “working class city” now facing massive
because
unemployment
profit-hungry
corporations, specifically Bethlehem Steel, find it
easier to move their plant elsewhere than pay
decent wages, stop pollution, and pay their fair
share of the state taxes.
I am not one to argue that Arthur' Eve will
stem this tide any more than any other mayor
could. There is only one way we can keep
industry in this city, barring a working class
revolution, and that is “kissing ass”
paying the
-

corporations back their tax money, allowing
them to continue polluting the air we breath, and
accepting wage cuts
none of which anyone
wants to do.
When I was in Portugal in the winter of
1975-76, the revolutionaries there faced the same
situation: they could take over any plants they

who fought for those EOF grants. This has
changed the class composition of undergraduates

with what they desire: namely, that the working
class unite and seize control of industry and run
it for the benefit of all. This has been said for
centuries. And, yet, it hasn’t happened in
years
America. Workers haven’t been able to unit for
their own interests. What has happened in this
country is that the ruling class, the owners of
major corporations, has managed to play off each
new immigrant population coming to the big
cities seeking jobs against those who are already
here and who have jobs. Divide and conquer, that
has been their rule. As a result, the white working
class on the whole sees its interests threatened by
blacks, without jobs, who come to Buffalo. The
powerful in Buffalo play on that threat for all it
is worth. It is the job of leftists
those who
desire to see working class control over society
to fight that division among working people,
which merely serves to keep them out of power.
This brings me to Arthur Eve.
When 1 first came to Buffalo, 1 was told that
the construction of this new Amherst campus
was held up by a black people’s movement.
Blacks were excluded from construction unions
and were not going to be employed in the
half-billion dollar construction project then
planned. Eve was mentioned to me as the
political leader of the blacks in Buffalo who was
fighting that job discimination. He scared people;
construction was held up for years; finally
concessions were made; not great, but some jobs
were provided. He is a practical fighter. Again,

in Buffalo produce massive quantities of leaflets,

Buffalo, advocating worker’s control, working
class revolution, and slogans. They seem to pass

1 do not intend to back off from my own
leftist dream, when the workers unite all over the
world, and throw off the Capitalist exploiters,
but if ever leftists are going to have anything to
say at all, they are going to have to join with
whatever plans or movements the workers have
already set up, aid them, and also, criticize them
when this is possible. Maybe I would feel
differently if there were some great powerful
workers’ movement, but there surely isn’t, not
now, not in Buffalo. We leftists are marginal,
now. But, as they say, history is on our side.
As I see it, especially in Buffalo, what divides
working class is racism and sexism,
the
deepseated, actively promoted by the media and
the ruling class. This is where the fight is now,
with echoes in America’s foreign policy in South
Africa. It would be absurd for me to advocate
Black Separatism, that is for black people to
decide. What I can do is to aid those efforts of
Blacks (and other exploited minorities, and
women) when my support is called for. It appears
to me, reading the election returns from the
primary, that the city of Buffalo’s black
population overwhelmingly backs Arthur Eve for
mayor. He is a fighter for the blacks, he is open
to some initiatives of the Left to take control out
of the hands of Capitalists, he needs white
support to be elected, he has aided this
University immeasureably through the EOF
grants to bring a new class, new energy into this
place, and 1 believe it will be possible, in some

The purpose of this workshop is to introduce
Mao Tse-tung Thought as a science and philosophy,
showing how it has been applied in today’s China.
Different aspects of Mao Tse-tung Thought will be

To the Editor.

Many students here at Amherst, especially those
from New York, enjoy beautiful Buffalo sunsets
every evening. However, when they’ve ended their
sighs and exclamations. I’ve often heard them
mumbling on their way back to their rooms, “This
sunset was brought to you by Beth Steel, “Beth
Steel strikes again,” or some other equally intelligent
remark. It isn’t enough for these nitpicking nerds to
just sit back and relish the sunsets; no, they’ve got to
slander and libel a fine company which has
contributed taxes and jobs to Western New York for
longer than anyone here can remember.
Slander? Libel? Yes
because those
smokestacks you see outside your window do not
belong to Bethlehem Steel or Republic Steel. If you
had ever ventured out into the community in which
you live, and become acquainted with its beauty,
you’d realize that both those establishments are in
South Buffalo (in Lackawanna and on South Park,
respectively). To the west of Amherst lie the refining
plants of a number of oil companies (Gulf, Texaco,
Sunoco, Atlantic, Humble and Frontier); these
businesses have done a service to the Niagara

‘Rose Garden
to
explore women’sfeelings
by Gerard Stemesky
Spectrum Arts Editor

It is no secret that the lack of
meaningful roles for women has
been one of the most consistent
causes for embarrassment among
contemporary filmmakers. This
drought became perhaps most
obvious a few years ago when
Butch Cassidy And The Sundance
Kid achieved such great success,
paving the way for films like The
Sting, which
starred
Robert
Redford and Paul Newman, and

Scarecrow, with A1 Pacino and
indeed,
Gene
Hackman.
Hollywood seemed for a while to
be operating under some kind of
“buddy system,” with what few
“bankable” (and, coincidentally,
male) stars there were pairing off
and showing us how a couple of
Ture-Blue-Blooded American pals

look after one another.

This situation was without a
doubt furthered by the scarcity of
actresses who were guaranteed to
be box-office drawing cards.
Screenwriters simply would not,
or could not, write scripts with
roles of major importance for
women, and while some of the
“male companionship” movies
were in fact fine films, one
yearned for the day when, movies
would begin to treat modern
women honestly.

The past decade has seen a
dream come true for many of the
city’s planners and businessmen:
the construction and near
completion of Rainbow Center,
an 85 acre urban development
project. Located downtown and
close to the Falls, the complex
Falls
includes Niagara
International Convention Center,
E. Dent Lackey Plaza, Rainbow
Mall, and the Winter Garden.
The idea for the construction
of a convention center in Niagara

Falls was conceived in 1926 by
the current city manager. Almost
SO years later on January 12,
1974, the doors of the Niagara
Falls International Convention
Center opened to the public. The
$35
million rainbow
shaped

building, six stories high at its
center, was designed by architect
Philip Johnson in the late 1960’s.
Public reaction
the
to

construction of the center has
been mixed. Initially viewed as a
“white elephant” and a severe
financial disability, most city
residents now feel that the center
and its events bring increased
economic as well as cultural
revenue to the area.

Events at the center are
diverse, ranging from conventions,
car and home shows, basketball
games, to concerts and circuses.

This summer the center has seen

the O’Jays, James Taylor, Peter
Frampton, and The World of Star
Trek with Gene Roddenberry.
The E. Dent Lackey Plaza,
commemorating a late mayor of
the city who set the construction
wheels in motion, transforming
his dream into reality, is located
directly in front of the convention
center. The plaza design was
chosen from a Canadian-American
Architectural Competition. The
winner, Abraham W. Geller of
New York City, conceived the
plaza with a civic center in mind.
The $8 million project was begun
in Spring 1973, and completed in
May of this year.

�Graphic cooperative
operates in Buffalo
by Btenda Strayhail
Spectrum Staff Writer

When you pull yoij£ t-shirt on in the morning, do you ever stop to
think that it is saying something about you and might be considered a
unique work of art? If you have never thought of this, a group of five
men and their colorful silk-screened shirts might change your mind.
The Great Arrow Graphics Shop is run by Mike Morgulis, his
brother lerry, cousin Ross Reback, and two friends, Willie Ecevarria
and Michael Levinson. In addition to t-shirts, they screenprint signs and
posters.

Mike explained that the history of silk-screen dates back 2000
in China. Human hair was used as a screen, leaves and
flowers for stencils. The designs were rather limited, he said. The
silk-screen process was brought West after almost 2000 more years and
used as an inexpensive form for printing posters. However,
silk-screening on fabric was not yet tried until 30 or 40 years ago.
Today, the process is used for sighs, posters, and shirts and is widely
accepted as a fine art form.
years, originating

No illusions
Margulis began Great Arrow Graphics one year ago. Originally
from Buffalo, he had always been interested in drawing and graphic art
work. While living in California, he learned more about silk-screen and
after returning here, started the shop with another who soon left. To
find out if the shirts would appeal to the public, Mike created a design
and silk-screened it on the front of a t-shirt. The design had a picture of
a buffalo against a colorful background with the caption: “Buffalo
City of No Illusions.” The response to the shirt was very favorable and
shortly thereafter Jerry joined the business. Eccvarria was working in
the production department of a local television station when one day
he came in the shop to visit Mike. He was interested in what was going
on and ended up quitting his TV job so that he could work in graphics
full time. The last two people to join the staff were Reback and
Levinson, both of whom happened to get caught up in the creative
atmosphere and decided they wanted to be a part of it.
Great Arrow Graphics is located at 1685 Elmwood Avenue and
occupied two rooms of the basement. The office is lined wall-to-wall
with samples
a colorful assortment of t-shirts and graphics. Chances
are you have seen some of their posters or t-shirts since they have done
a lot of work for area organizations, restaurants, and bars,
T-shirts have become a very inexpensive and popular way for
places to advertise. Using a system designed by Mike, the genius behind
the designs, each shirt is silk-screened by hand, using a non-toxic, water
based ink. The design will not fade after washing, he says, and is soft to
the touch unbke some other methods where the ink hardens to a rough
-

—

texture.

This silk-screen process is preferred to press machines, which mass
produce t-shirt printing allowing two colors at most. Shirts from Great

Arrow are more colorful because a separate screen is built for each
color in the design, Jerry says. After being screened, the shirts are hung
to dry for about 45 minutes, then heat-set in dryers.
The first Great Arrow shirts are still popular, including “Just
Buffalo,” a sunset scene with a herd of buffalo running across the
landscape. Another you may have seen is the “If you don’t like the
weather in Buffalo
wait a minutes” t-shirt. Shirts of all the Buffalo
co-ops were on display for two months at the Greenfield Street
restaurant and are available at Everyone’s Bookstore, 3102 Main Street.
.

..

Waiting for payment
Since they ran a small personal business, the men often have to
work six days a week, from early morning until late night.

Occasionally, a problem arises, as happened this summer when they
agreed to design and print 800 t-shirts for the mayor’s summer youth
program. Since the shirts were needed immediately, a rush order was
put on them. All five members worked through the night to finish the
order. Due to problems with federal funding, they have not been paid.
Great Arrow has to make an initial investment in buying the t-shirts
When they are not paid, they are taking a great loss, they claim
possibly crippling the business. Great Arrow thinks of itself as a
cooperative. Though Mike started the business, he does not consider

Three plays mark the
fall theatre program

The Center for Theater Research and the Theater Department of
this University promise art exciting year of cultural experience in the
fieldof the performing arts and invite everyone to partake.

The Tapestry," a musical extravaganza written and directed under the
musical genius of Ray Leslie and Steve Porter. “Myths” is scheduled
30), and the first weekend
to run the last weekend of October (J7
of November (3 -6).
Two days later, November 8, one of the most important of the
Center's efforts this semester opens with the play, “Are You Now Or

audience and actors alike, and runs through November 20.
December 6—18 marks the running of “Bingo” under the
direction of Saul Elkin, chairman of the Theater Department, and
James McQuire, a Master’s Candidate full of enthusiasm and workable
ideas, “Bingo” deals with the final days of William Shakespeare’s life.

Dynamics of the stage captured by Theatre Dept.
by Annette Maslowski
Spectrum Staff Writer
Sweat flows freely, frustrations often peak, but
eventually, personal rewards can be rich, and, if the public
eye happens to glance your way, recognition is but fleeting

ecstasy. Theater. We’ve all heard it described as ongoing
and dynamic, but most of us picture it as entertainment,
an escape or just something to do on a Saturday night.
Do we ever stop and consider the years of hard work
and training behind that two-hour long gift presented us
by the actors and technicians? Actors aren’t merely
discovered on the street, to become instant successes. More
often than not, raw talent is cultivated and stardom is laid

in waiting.
All of that training has to start somewhere and that
’’somewhere” is within each person, initiated by a decision
to commit oneself to the art. After that commitment is
made, guidance from an outside source comes into play.
This guidance is offered to prospective “theater
people” here at this University by the Center for Theater
Research and the Theater Department located in Harriman
Library.

referred to exist for three reasons. First, Fellows are
students, experiencing an ongoing educational process in
an advanced sense. Second, they are teachers, lightening
the load of the professors by taking on classes dealing with
more general levels of the art.
Lastly, they are the tangible links between the
undergraduates and the professors. Consequently a type of
functional, necessary hierarchy is formed,. Fellows have
worked hard to get where they are and hence have
established a tenure based on familiarity and “on stage”
experience.

Hudson and Mohawk

Study says toxic chemicals
in two rivers are dangerous
The Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) and
the New York Public Interest Research Group, Inc.
(NYP1RG) today released a massive study detailing
the sources, types and hazardous health effects of
toxic chemicals discharged into the Hudson and

Rivers. The 210-page study, entitled
Troubled Waters: Toxic Chemicals in the Hudson
River, found that:
Hazardous substances such as: benzene,
tetrahydrofuran, polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs),
cyclohexane,
methylbenz(a)anthracene, toluene,
dibutylphthalate, and xylene are present in industrial
and municipal treatment plant wastewater effluents
and the Hudson River itself.
Discharge
Elimination
National Pollutant
System (NYPDES) permits for 254 industrial and
Mohawk

municipal dischargers in the Hudson River Drainage

Basin (HRDB) are totally inadequate to control the
discharge of toxic substances. Consequently, major
industries in the HRDB discharge a complex
spectrum of toxic and carginogenic chemicals.
Hundreds of industries currently avoid direct
regulation under the NPDES permit program by
discharging their contaminated wastewaters through
municipal
collection systems. Inappropriately
designed to treat hazardous industrial wastes, these
facilities allow pollutants to bypass treatment and
flow into the river. The effluents from these sewage
treatment plants are a serious source of toxic
chemical pollution.

These findings are of critical importance because
more than 1 50,000 New Yorkers currently rely on
the Hudson River as their source of drinking water.
Moreover, the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers has
developed a plan to withdraw up to 950 million
gallons per day of Hudson River water to
supplement the present New York Metropolitan
Area’s water supply. If this plan were implemented,
more than 10 million New Yorkers living in New
York City and Long Island would consume drinking
water drawn from the Hudson River.
Because currently practiced drinking water
purification procedures in most cases do not
adequately remove toxic contaminants, and because
chlorination, once thought to insure water purity,
has itself been shown to produce carcinogens
through interaction with water-borne organic
chemicals, the findings in this study raise very
serious questions regarding the use of the Hudson
River as a source of drinking water.

PCB contamination

The study’s findings were termed “alarming” by
Dr. Joseph Highland, the Chairman of EDF’s Toxic
Chemicals Program. Dr. Highland stated that earlier
studies
in New Orleans and
epidemiological
Cincinnati had “substantiated the association
between the ingestion of carcinogens in drinking
water and significantly higher cancer mortality rates
among the affected populations. There is no reason
to suspect a different result in New York.” In the

Looking at the world from a women's perspective and
then translating it into theatrics is the objective behind the
Women’s Collective, a branch of the department. Women's
Collective meetings are open to the public and include
both faculty and student members.
There’s good news trickling through the theater’s
grapevine. Elkin has gotten positive responses from
University administrators concerning possible rental of the
downtown Studio Arena Theater space. The Palace
Theater is being renovated and Studio Arena is planning to
take over that space, leaving its present location vacant.
Downtown Buffalo would once again have the core of
a first Street, The Shea's Buffalo at 646 Man Street, and a
downtown University Street, The Shea's Buffalo at 646
Main Steet, and a downtown University Theater at 681
Main Street. Furthermore, such a move would serve the
urban community in a time when the University is shifting
to the suburbs. The Studio would be receiving regular
rental income on its property, while this University would
be utilizing one of the finest performing spaces in the area.

A toy gun leads to
criminal charges
by Drew Reid Kerr
Spectrum Staff Writer
At this very moment, he may be sitting in your class, copying
fellow to his left. Some consider him a criminal, others
see him as a victim of the truth. His brush with the law prodded him to
tell his story. Not wanting his real name used, he chose the alias of
“Dirk.”
Dirk was traveling this summer on Route 104 in Rochester with
his friend, Steve, to a near-by pinball emporium. Steve was driving the
car at a legal speed and Dirk was sitting in the passenger seat, holding in
his hand a plastic Marx toy gun. in a fit of playfulness, Dirk put the
gun out the car window, pointed it at various cars and pulled the
trigger. A sound was emitted from the gun, which was described by
Dirk as a “rat-tat-tat” noise.
In the humorous melee on the Thruway, Dirk was given a cold
stare by one lady traveling close by. He laughed and didn’t think much
of it. Continuing their journey, “shooting" nonchalantly out the
window, they didn’t realize that the hard-faced woman had copied
down their license plate number and planned to file a complaint.

Missing manhole?
Two days after the “shooting” spree, Dirk was interrupted at
home by a Rochester Police Department detective. Dirk thought the
man was going to inquire about a missing manhole cover on the block.
The detective asked him if he had been fooling around with a play gun
recently. Dirk confessed that he had He was told that the woman had
filed harassment charges against him and his friend. Dirk was told not
to worry about the incident, for this visit would be as far as the
complaint would gel The only thing presented to Dirk was a
handshake.
Dirk received a letter from the Rochester Criminal Court a week
after the detective’s appearance. It ordered him to appear at their
office within 10 days.

�‘KentuckyFried Movie: ninety minutes of laughter
by Michael Silverman
Spectrum

Staff Writer

Kentucky Fried Movie is a

satirical swipe at two mediums
which prove easy targets
television and motion pictures.
The film, which consists of some
-

twenty light-hearted spoofs and
penetrating parodies, is in the
tradition of Tunnel Vision and
Groove Tube. It isn’t high art nor
even high comedy, but it is
generally amusing in its
distortions of an already distorted
“reality.” The creators of the
film, Jerry Zucker, Jim Abrahams,
and David Zucker, have leveled
their blast of hard-hitting,
non-stop, go for broke humor at a
generation that was wet-nursed by
television and
commercial
interruptions.

Perhaps
television’s wdrst
insult
upon its viewers’
intelligence are those thirty
seconds where sponsors attempt
to peddle their wares. Kentucky
Fried Movie ridicules those
endeavors with a fine sense of the
absurd. Imagine a group of
hard-chanting Hare Krishnas, tired
from distributing leaflets and
panhandling, taking a break for
“Wilier Time.” After all, when
you’re only reincarnated six or
seven times you’ve got to grab for
all the gusto. In another, a typical
American homemaker is frying
the cat in pure Nesson Oil. There
is a thin line between parody and
perversion and in the course of
the film it is crossed frequently.
One of the commercials I
found distasteful featured Henry
Gibson (one of the few “names”

in a bit role) as a fund raiser for
the “United Appeal for the
Dead.” He assured that there was
indeed hope for the dead and that
absence of life doesn’t, necessarily
mean absence from everyday life.
A disfigured corpse is then
dragged along on various family
outings, even doing a dead man’s
float in the backyard swimming
pool: Obviously, when your comic
efforts are cither hit or miss, there
are bound to be some misfires.
There is a segment concerning
an “eyewitness” news telecast
which lingers on past its amusing
moments. However, the initial
hilarity of the premise on which
the segment is based compensates
for this excess, as the anchorman,
and eventually his crew, reach
climax while watching the sexual
activities of two home viewers.

Otherwise, most of Kentucky
Fried Movie sparkles with a
and gleeming
perceptive
understanding of its sdbject.
There is the ultimate sensation in
movie viewing, “feel-a-round,”
where each person is provided
with an usher whose actions are

�Season opens tomorrow

Previewing this year in NBA:
will Trailblazers repeat?
_

,

!

#

by Marshall Adler
Spectrum Staff Writer

“Can anyone stop the Portland Trail Blazers
from repeating as N.B.A. champions?” That's what
everyone is asking as the N.B.A. prepares for the
opening of the 1977-78 season tomorrow. Many
basketball experts feel that the Blazers, an extremely
young team (Bill Walton, at 2S, is starter), could
dominate the N.B.A. for years to come.
Anyone who has followed pro basketball,
however, has heard this before. Each time a team
wins a championship, it is supposed to be the
beginning of a new dynasty. These “dynasties”
usually last for only one year, however.
The Trail Blazers are destined to become
another team in the long line of short-lived
dynasties, since it is extremely unlikely they will be
able to repeat. There are just too many other strung
teams in the league that will challenge them. Let us
' now see
if we can determine who this year’s
“dynasty” team will be.
Atlantic Division
The 76ers possess the best
Philadelphia 76m
talent in the game. With three bonaflde superstars in
Julius Ervirfg, George McGinnis, and Doug Collins,
and a fine supporting cast of Steve Mix, Henry
Bibby, and Darryl Dawkins, they definitely have the
potential to win the N.B.A. championship
but
they won’t.
C- ; ‘
Most of the 76er players are too immature and
self-centered to realize that it takes discipline,
self-sacrifice, and team work to succeed in the
N.B.A. Unless the 76ers change their ways. Owner
Fitz Dixon’s dream of an N.B.A. championship will
stay a dream.
New York Knicks
The Knicks, like the 76ers,
have a star-studded line-up. consisting of ex-Brave
Bob McAddo, oft-injured Spencer Haywood, and
magic man Earl Monroe. But, like the 76ers, the
Knicks did not play up to thei; potential last year.
Whereas the old Knick championship teams
exemplified dedication, hard work, and defense last
year’s Knick team exemplified none of these
qualities. The Knicks, with the acquisition of No. 1
draft choice Ray Williams, and ex-Cavaher Jim
Geamons, have perhaps solved their problem of lack
of backcourt speed, but the loss of Coach Red
Hoizman, forward Bill Bradley, and guard Walt
Frazier will create different problems for them now.
This trio had brains and experience two qualities
the Knicks may lack this year.
Boston Celtics The Celtics do not possess the
talent of the Knicks and 76ers, but they more than
make up for it with their hustle, dedication, and
enthusiasm. The nucleus of social recluse, Dave
Co wens, ageless wander, John Haviicek, and
underrated superstar, Jo Jo White, will carry the
Celtics further than their talent really should permit.

To illustrate how badly the Celtics need quality
players, they are willing to take a chance on veteran
guard, Dave Bing. They are also counting heavily on
No. I draft choice, Cedric (Cornbread) Maxwell to
help them in the front court. As you can see, these
are not the same Celtics the rest of the N.B.A. has
learned to fear and respect.
Buffalo Braves Last year was a catastrophic
year for the Braves. Former owner, Paul Snyder,
threatened to move the team, the franchise’s greatest
player, Bob McAdoo, was sold to the Knicks, and
because of this, the majority of Brave fans were
alienated against their own team. Against this
background, it is amazing how quickly the Braves

Central Division
Washington Bullets
Last year, the Bullets
missed winning the Division title by one game. With
this year’s addition of Toward bob Dandridge (from
Milwaukee), they should make it Aging Wes Unseld,
inconsistent Phil Chenier (who never became the
next Walt Frazier), and moody Elvin Hayes, should
finally be able to capture the N B A. championship
that has seemed within their reach in previous years.
Houston Rockets
The most effective weapon
the Rockets had last year was the element of
surprise. No one expected them to win the Division
title, much less take Philadelphia to six games,
before bowing out of the playoffs. Although the
Rockets will be as strong as they were last year, no
one will take them lightly, and, hence, they will
finish in second place. Budding superstar, Moses
Malone, smooth shooting Rudy Tomjanovich, super
quick Calvin Murphy, and tough guy, Mike Newlin,
form one of the most cohesive starting units in the
N.B.A.
Cleveland Cavaliers
The Cavs might have
pulled off one of the best deals in the N B A. this
year with the acquisition of ex-Knick superstar, Walt
Frazier. They play the same type of good defense,
slowdown game that the Knicks used when Frazier
was the best to his previous prominence. If they do,
the Cavs could be the surprise to his previsou
prominence. If they do, the Cavs could be the
surprise team in the N.B.A.
San Antonio Spurs
The Spurs personify the
old A.B.A., as they are all hit and no field. ‘The
Iceman,” George Gervin (probably the most
underrated player in the league), ex-Net, forward
Larry Kenon, and the “Whopper” Billy Paultz, can
all “put the ball in the basket.”
New Orleans Jazz
Pete Maravich is the O.J.
Simpson of the N B A. He is the best there is in the
business, but he has no supporting cast. Last year,
“The Pistol” had 13 games in which he scored 40 or
more points (including 68 points against the Knicks).
Atlanta Hawks
The Hawks are the Southern
version of the Nets. Since last year, they have
managed t6 lose their best guard (Tom Henderson),
their best forward (Len Robinson, whom they
received for Henderson), and their best player in the
history of the franchise (Lou Hudson). If they keep
this up, Roy Boe, the Net owner, might get jealous.

here has been (a) cancelled; (b)
misplaced; (c) rained out; or (d)
sold to the Russians. If you
picked (a) or (c), you’re probably
right. After struggling in with the

rain and soggy fields and
cancellations by Buffalo State and
Canisius, Bulls coach Bill
Monkarsh frustratedly cancelled
the remainder of the Bulls' season.
Buffalo finished
with a
respectable 5-2 season. In the final
game against Canisius at Delaware
Park, three UB pitchers combined
for a one-hit win. Greg Fischer
started for the Bulls, and his final
fall stats show that he did not give
up a hit in the more than ten
innings he pitched this fall.
The

second

game

of

that

scheduled doubleheader was
cancelled because someone else
had reserved the field in Delaware
Park. It’s unfortunate that a
baseball team of UB’s caliber has
to put up with bullshit like this.
Another time, Buffalo State
agreed to play at Peelle Field, and
then cancelled on the day of the
game for no apparent reason.
None of the local schools
(Canisius,
Buffalo State or
Niagara) are of UB’s caliber, and
the nearest Division I school to

Buffalo with a baseball team other
than Canisius or Niagara is
Cornell. Considering that the Bulls
have no scholarships and have to
travel so far for decent
competition, Monkarsh’s record
over the past few years is truly
amazing.

Touche-women to
joinfencing team
For the first time, UB’s varsity fencing team will have both male
and female members. Women’s and Men’s Athletic Coordinators Betty
Dimmick and Ed Muto approached coach Jules Goldstein with the idea
of adding women to the team and Goldstein agreed to coach the
additional players. Both the coach and Dimmick are excited about this
new opportunity for women athletes.
Thus far, about five women have been practicing with the team. If
more women show up, Buffalo will be able to field a separate women’s
team which could compete against other women’s teams in the area,
including Oswego, Brockport, RIT, Colgate and Binghamton. If the
number of women doesn’t increase, women will still be able to
compete against male opponents. “My goal is to have a women’s team
that practices and travels with the men’s team,” said Dimmick.

According to Goldstein, fencing is not a very physical sport and
thus the sex of a player is not important. “It doesn’t make any
difference; if they’re good, they’re good,” he said. “Speed coordination
and timing that’s what does it.” He added that competition between
men and women is not uncommon in fencing.
-

Benefits twofold
Dimmick explained that the benefits of a coed team are twofold
it improves the women’s athletic program without increased
expenditures. “This is an opportunity to get more women involved
without having to hire new coaches,” she said. Both Goldstein and
Dimmick emphasized that a woman need not be an experienced fencer
in order to go out for the team.
The fencers will demonstrate their skills in the three different
styles of fending (foil, saber and epee) in the Fillmore Room of Squire
Hall on Thursday, October 20 from 7 to 9:30 p.m. in the basement of
Clark Hall. The equipment is provided by the Athletic Department. For
more information, contact assistant coach Tom Bremer at 634-7521.

�Bulls’ mistakes help Canisius dominate. 22—8
by Marshall Rosenthal
Special Features Editor

"Our own mistakes beat us. We
beat ourselves.” Those were the
words Buffalo football coach Bill
Dando used to describe how his
young and inexperienced Bulls
lost to the Canisius Griffins,

22-8.

and a porous defensive secondary.

the Bulls made the Griffins look
better than they actually were.
In the first quarter, the Bulls
were forced to punt three times.
In addition, a Paul DiMiero pass
was intercepted at the height of
the Bulls’ only scoring threat of
the quarter, and the offense
coughed the ball up on another
occasion. That fumble proved to
be quite costly since Griffin

quarterback Jerry Mann turned
the Buffalo error into a Canisius
score.

With the Bulls first and ten at
their own 20 yard line, a mixup in
the backfield jarred the ball loose,
but unfortunately into the hands
of Griffin Jim Winkfield. Two
plays later, Mann rolled to his left

and connected with Tom Pciitera

Errant ways
The second quarter

saw the
Bulls continue their errant ways.

Two potential touchdowns for the
Bulls turned into: “Well, maybe if
we . . .” Instead, neither team
scored despite Buffalo’s efforts.
Early in the second period, the
and Gold defensive line
forced Mann to toss a soft short
pass into the arms of Buffalo
linebacker Dan
Vecchies. But
Vecchies seemed to take his eye
off the ball noticing that there
wasn’t a Canisius player between
him and the goal and dropped the
ball.
Blue

The most devastating blow to
the Bulls came just before the
half. The Bulls’ Terry O’Conner
snatched a Mann pass and ran it
back 50 yards to bring life to the
somber crowd of 5,826 at Rotary
Field. On the Canisius 20 yard
line, Tony Formato sliced to his
left for a seven yard pickup. Two
plays later, fullback Gary Feltz
bulled his way to the 4 yard line.
Next, he hurled his body to the
two. But on the following play he
was jolted and fumbled the ball.

This week's Athlete of the Week award goes to another freshman. In
last week's football game against RIT which resulted in a 7-7 tie,

one pass, and caused an RIT fumble stopping the Tigers' drive at the
Bulls' nine yard line.

Robinson held on to the ball this

score 22—8.
The Bulls have not turned into
a winner overnight. It’s going to
take time for Buffalo to develop
into a good football team. No one
knows this better than Canisius
head coach Bill Brooks, who went
through the building process three
years ago when Canisius reinstated

varsity football. “Buffalo has
good football players, but they
lack experience. Dando is an
outstanding coach and as time
goes by, they’ll improve . . . Time
will tell,” said Brooks.

Dando agrees that the Bulls
need experience. He related, “I
just hope that the kids don’t quit
and the fans don’t quit on us
either.” He believes that with
time, Buffalo football will come
around. As far as the game is
concerned,
Buffalo
defensive
coordinator Bruce Fraser stated,
“When Canisius needed a pass,
they got it. Defensively, there was
not enough pressure, but there
was no breakdown . . . they were
just better than us.”

A few days later at the Criminal Court building, Dirk and Steve
were told that they would have to appear before an “arbitration
hearing,” a meeting designed to settle a conflict between two parties.
The woman wanted them to realize the seriousness of their actions and
did not wish to be bothered again, they were told.
‘Kung-fu crazed’
Dirk and Steve appeared September 15, 1977 in Rochester
Criminal Court on charges of pointing a plastic gun at cars. The woman
who brought up the charges, Mrs. Donna Deform, approximately 27
years old, confessed in an emotional speech that she had thought the
gun was real and it had endangered the lives of both herself and her
child in the car at the time. The incident, she claimed, had caused
mental strain at home. Her husband remained silent, staring at the
students in a “kung-fu crazed look,” according to Dirk. The two young
men then recanted their story as fully as they could recall it.
After both sides of the argument were presented, Dirk and Steve
left the room. The prosecuting party discussed a fitting punishment.
The verdict required the two defendants to write letters of apology to
Mrs. Deform stating, Dirk revealed, that they would be “better drivers
in the future.”
Dirk wrote the letter a week later, using lenghy, complex words to
express his apology. He was angry at the time he had wasted because of
this “case.” I think maybe, maybe, I’m not sure, I might have
absent-mindedly drawn a cactus,” Dirk recalled. A cactus?On a letter
which was to go first through the Rochester Criminal CourtWas there
any particular reason for doing this? “Perhaps some subconscious
aggression,” Dirk replied. He drew it with a green Flair pen right in the
middle of the page. “1 don’t think cactuses are a crime, but neither are
toy machine guns,” Dirk stated defiantly.
If someone pointed a plastic gun at Dirk on the highway, what
would be his reaction7“l’d throw him-the bird” or “the finger,” Dirk
answered. He said a slingshot, though, might scare him.
Mrs. Donna Deform left New York State October 3, 1977. Dirk
claimed he had nothing to do with it.

&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 original charges were based on two types of tests. In the first
t, college students were administered electrical impulses
transmitted by a machine which was faulty and could have caused
serious injury or death. The second experiment used as subjects grade
school children, who were given toys to play with, including one which
they desired most but were forbidden to touch.
A specific case involved a SUNYA student who suffered facial
bums and slight retinal damage. She was asked to stare into unusually
bright lights without ever having been told that the research was
potentially harmful.
An amended* list of .charges against the University citfd alleged
vioktions that involved experiments entitled, “Personal Test of Sexual
Behavior,” “Questionnaire of Types and Timing of Past Sexual
Experience,” “Fantasies About Romantic Love in Heterosexuals and
Homosexuals,” and “Variables Relating to the Sexual Behavior of
Couples.”
The State Health Department also questioned the implementation
by SUNYA’s Psychology Department of its own Ethics and Review
Committee. The IlCfeRK Department pointed Suf flfat this committee
consisted solely of psychology professors rather than persons with
varied backgrounds and interests so as to insure a competent and
complete review of the human research activities.
The charges constitute violations of the State Public Health Law.
The punishment for such violations is a fine of up to StOOO for each
instance, along with sanctions against further research activities. The
October 7th hearing to which various SUNYA officials were
subpoenaed has been recessed Until October 26.
Albany officials have ordered all research on human subjects
halted unless first cleared by the University Review-Research
Committee. This action was originally taken in response to a new state
law barring human research without the written consent of test
subjects and clearance by a University panel: This law arose partly in
response to revelations that the Central Intelligence Agency had
conducted drug and other experiments on unknowing subjects.
Written consent required
The state statute covers “any individual who may be exposed to
the possibility of injury, including physical, social or psychological
injury.” All psychological testing that deals with human subjects must
meet requirements set by either the New York State Public Health
Law, or the Department of Health, Education and Welfare’s (HEW)
Code of Federal Regulations. These regulations require that written
consent of the subjects is received prior to the experiment that
complete information as to the nature of the experiments provided,
and that warning of any discomfort or pain to be expected during the
course of the test is issued.
The student newspaper at SUNY Binghampton, The Pipedream,
reported, “Students participated in the psychology experiments as part
or
an introductory course
qf a requirement for Psychology 101
were required to write a research paper in place of the experimental
-

-

participation.”
The policy of the Psychology Department at this University
stipulates that all Psychology 101 students must participate in foulexperiments toreceive credit for the course. However, should a student
sign up for a test and, upon appearing at the meeting place, decide he is
for some reason opposed to the nature of the experiment, he may leave
without participating and still receive credit.
The University also has its own Ethics Committee to review all

sessions.
M
With the current ban on research projects at Albany, It is possible
that psychology testing throughout the SUNY system could be subject
to carejul scrutiny by the State Health Commission. The prevalent
feeling at SUNYA is that because of the current controversy, hundreds
of proposed experiments will soon be snarled, if not by the state, then
by a new University-wide ethics committee.

New card planned

ID committee closes doors

A reporter from The Spectrum
wss apparently illegally barred
from a University ID committee
meeting held Tuesday to discuss
the design of a new card.
According to Director of
Orientation, Joseph Krakaviak,
the committee decided it “could
discuss the issues more freely
without the danger of being
misquoted if the meeting was
closed.” The Spectrum has
received no complaints from any
persons involved in the ID card
controversy
concerning
misquotations.

According to a spokesman for
the state in Albany, Bob Freeman,
the meeting definitely fell under
the state’s Open Meeting, or
“Sunshine Law.” Freeman said
that “Section 95 of the law states

wouldn’t term the action a
“vote.” “It was more of a general
consensus among the committee
members.” He said there was no
formal vote taken to close the
meeting. A formal roll call vote is
required under the Sunshine Law.
The addition of the signature
and date of birth to the ID card
was discussed at the meeting.
According to Krakowiak, the
signature will be added. Regarding
the birth date, the lack of which
has been a major controversy this
semester, “I am sure we can add
it. Right now we have a proposal
that Security will check to make
sure that the correct date of birth
will be on the card.” Acceptable
proof will probably be a driver’s
license, birth certificate or
Sheriffs ID card.
Delia said that the signature
and date of birth will be on the
new card. “Most probably,” he
continued, “they will reissue ID
cards this year." Delia added that
additional meetings will
be
necessary before the final design is
chosen.
The next meeting of the ID
Card Committee is Tuesday and
will be “open,” according to the
co-chairmen. On the agenda for
Tuesday’s meeting are Food
Service stickers and the problem
of punching holes in the card for
elections and athletic events.

�Weekend meals not
served atGovemors
by Thomai Roaunlia
Spectrum Staff Writer

University Food and Vending (FVS) doe* not provide weekend
food service to the Governor* Re*idence Complex according to FVS
Assistant Director Donald Bozek. Bozek said the cost* of the operation
are not justified by the number of people on Board Contracts eating in
Governors.
250 people are required in any one residence unit in order for
Food Service to break even financially, Bozek said. He claimed that last
year an average of 175 Governors’ residents were served per evening
during the first semester and that this figure dropped to 125 by the
second semester. In order to avoid raising prices or losing money.
Director of Food and Vending Service Donald Hosie decided not to
serve complete meals on weekends in Governors, according to Bozek.
Governors’ residents are given the choice of traveling to the Bllicott
Complex for weekend meals or using the Cash Service line in Governors
where students can eat up to $2.50 worth of food with a Food Service
identification (ID) card.

Food amice profits

Because this University has no system of mandatory board
contracts, which would provide a constant source of funds to Food
Service and enable it to improve the quality and variety of its food, it
must rely solely on the number of board contracts it sells. Bozek
estimated that over 60 percent of dorm residents are on board
contracts. Food Service also sub-contracts a few vending machines and
realizes substantial profits from this enterprise, Bozek said.
One reason for eliminating full weekend service in Governors is the
seven percent increase in the cost of labor, according to Bozek.
Manager of the Food Service operation in Governors Thomas Modica
said that the greatest expenses are labor costs. He has a staff of 34
workers of which eight are full time staff and 26 are part-time student
personnel, many of whom work only one day of the week.
-

Dwindling contract members
Many Governors* residents feel it is preferrable to buy and prepare
their own food on weekends in lieu of eating unsatisfying contract
meals. On student said, “The trend seems to be more and more against
board contracts, especially for weekend meals when people have more
time to savor the taste of their food.”

�CARASA: a woman’s choice
Members of the Coalition for Abortion Rights
and Against Sterilization Abuse (CARASA) will
demonstrate to protect what they feel it the freedom
of choice for all women on Friday, October 14, at
4:30 pjn. in Lafayette Square.
This right, the Coalition feels, is threatened by
legislation such as the Hyde Amendment of 1977,
which restricts the use of federal funds to terminate
all but life threatening pregnancies. The central issue
revolves around more than abortion, however. What
lies at stake, spokespeople for Women Studies
College claim, is the ability for poor, young and
minority women to make free and responsible
decisions concerning the use of their own bodies,
“Legislators don’t get raped or pregnant,”
coordinator of Women’s Studies College Sherry
Darrow said. They can’t fully empathize with
women who face such experiences every day.”
Darrow felt that although abortion might not be a
fully satisfactory means 6f birth control, it is a
necessary one, until alternative methods are safer
and more effective.
For those women unwilling to risk the dangers

of the pill or a hysterectomy, it it imperative to keep
this safe, legal means open, member* of CARASA
feel. They cite facts which state that over 70 percent
of the nearly one million women desiring abortions
would turn to illegal abortionists or dangerous
“home remedies," 250 women a year would die
from self-induced abortions and over 300,000
women would resign themselves to having unwanted
children. Many more would enter into pregnancy
related marriages with little chance of success,
statistics say. Sterilization abuses, poor prenatal care
and expensive and scarce childcare are other
problems many women face, according to CARASA
members.
The purpose of the demonstration is to unite
women in the fight for a freedom that will so greatly
affect their lives. It is hoped that with massive
support, the awareness of men and women will be
raised in the realization that abortion remains a very
real issue in today’s society. CARAS’* long-term
goals are directed towards all aspects of freedom for

women.

There are still students remaining in triple rooms which were
intended to be doubles, according to Director of Housing Madison
Boyce. “The only students remaining in triples are those who opted to
do so,” he said.
Many of those who were put in overcrowded rooms were students
who applied for housing late, according to Assistant Director of
Housing; Garry Sbehner. Housing partially alleviated the problem by
moving the extra students into rooms where other students never
showed up, and by opening building 7 of Spaulding Quad in the

Director of Admissions and Records Richard Dremuk said,
“Students are not guaranteed housing and are told to send their
applications in as soon as possible.” He said that “housing was never a
problem in the past,” but that another overcrowding problem is
conceivable.
Create more space
■■%£ ■
Boyce said that if the overcrowding problem rose, again either
students will be put in overcrowded rooms or “turned away.” The
preventive measure would be reconversion of Spaulding offices back
■§
into a dorm space.
The extra students were placed in roonis formerly used to store
furniture and custodial equipment. Residents are unable to reach the
first floor by elevator and must exit qn the second floor and cross the
plat's to* another building in order to gain setts* to the first level. The
elevator has been turned off for a reason ■, explained Soehner. “The
elevator opens on the first floor of the dining area used for Dr. Ketter’s
receptions and award dinners,” he said. “If the elevator was in use,
people would be passing through constantly. The area is always set up
to accommodate the receptions.”
-

Lack of an elevator on the first floor creates an inconvenience for
some students. Andy Soh, a transfer student who applied late and
housed in building 7, said he has a problem moving his bicyde. “When
I take it out, I have to carry it up and down a flight of stairs. It would
be a lot easier and quicker with an elevator.*’
One student who moved from Main Street to Spaulding quad
complained about the absence of mirrors and has been informed that
no mirrors will be available this year. “It’s tike living in the woods,” he
said.

P.S. I’d like to thank The Spectrum for printing Mr.
Herbin’s ill conceived letter. It has given me an
opportunity to state something I’ve wanted to say
i or a long time.

Respect Chabad

It is not unreasonable to conclude that, had The
Spectrum (and thus by proxy, our 15,000 readers) been
present at all the previous meetings of the various ID card
committees, the University would not now be faced with a
useless 10 card and no one to blame.
What is clearly needed is more participation in the
decision making process at this University, not less. Barring

concerning his encounter with Chabad and his
respect fpr “religious” Judiasm: firstly, I am
flattered by your respect, yet I question your
understanding of it. Simchas Torah translated means
rejoicing of the law; the law is the Written and Oral
Torah; the Torah is a body of values and obligations
dealing with the human condition. It is an extensive
work that demands integrity, charity, and
intelligence on the part of man with himself, others
and God. Torah will, not settle for amendments or
deletions and yet it covers every aspect of human
life. The Torah can be interpreted in at least 70

different facets and on four separate levels. On a
very simple level, the festival of Simchas Torah is
meant to be celebrated in song, dance, and very high
spirits. It is one festival that has a custom of getting
“almost completely drunk,” yet never drunk enough
to desecrate the Torah or the holiday. What shall we
celebrate, Mr. Herbin, man’s failures or his gifts?As
far as Chabad is concerned: in a time when many
Jews are ignorant of their Jewish history and of the
Torah and are open game for non-Jewish
missionaries, thank G-d for Chabad which, if you
really want to know the truth, probably respects
your respect much more than you do.

Whenever one begins a diatribe, it is customary
to ridicule the other guy for not getting his facts
straight and then proceed to rewrite the facts. I shall
try, as much as possible, to avoid this practice. The
three authors of Wed. letter, Messrs N.A.Y., have
followed the usual practice.
First, we must understand that National self
determination is not something that is given out like
a birth certificate or a lolly pop. It is something that
is earned and much struggle necessitates its
con tinnance. We, the Jewish people, paid our price
in the blood of our fathers and are still paying it
with thwblood of our children. The Arab conceives
of us as a people, skilled in accounting and other
science* or trades, inferior to the Arab Moslem
because of our beliefs and the fact (Jut we had the
nerve to dismiss their prophet Mohammed as being
not genuine. This relegates us to the position, much
discussed but rarely felt personally by those who
read and write these letters, of second dais. We and
a hundred other minorities in the Middle East are
classified as second-class because we are either not
Arab or not Moslem. Now don’t suppose for a
second that the Arabs are going to let an accusation
like that go free. In subsequent issues you might see
me accused of all sorts of terrible crimes. Unless you
personally have lived under the thumb of
Arab-Mosiem National Chauvinism, you have
nothing to say. Besides, these are not the kind of
things that are supposed to appear in the West when
describing the Arab World.

today and is called Jordan. The fact that it is ruled
by a king who is not Palestinian but rather from
Saudi Arabia/ is a problem for the Palestinians to

cope with. The Jewish area is now called Israel and
as was then defined, included the Gaza strip and the
West Bank of the Jordan. The Arabs could not,
however, cope with such a situation. Place yourself
in their position for a moment. Here you are, on the
brink of controlling, a huge land area
your
ancestors once did, when along comet a small
minority trying to gain its independence. What do
you do? If you are Arab, yoii attempt to
exterminate that minority and silence the rabble so
that none of the other minorities you are suppressing
get any ideas. That is precisely what the Arabs did.
The only problem is, they did not succeed.
Today we have a modern state of Israel. We also
have modem Arab states. The only thing that makes
most Arab states modem is their existence in this
time zone and their armies. Israel, on the other hand,
is a modem DEMOCRATIC country that has been in
a state of war continuously for thirty years. Anyone,
even the Arabs, that exists under such a condition
for such a time is bound to make grave errors.
Compare, though, the judicial processes of the two
sides. Israel has jails full of convicted Arab terrorists,
some who have murdered hundreds of innocent
civilians. Please find me a similar condition in a
single Arab country. If oqe is accused of murder, one
has a variety of choices in the Arab world; death by
torture, death by firing squad, death by hanging,
death by suicide, death, death, death. We heard Mr.
Al Shadi explain away the deaths of 40 people
demonstrating in Egypt as inconsequential. The Arab
world treats all life in opposition to the reigning
political clique as inconsequential. This is precisely
why Israel does not trust them and why the
American people should not trust them. Our
president obviously sees political necessity in
trusting the Arabs. For Israel, political necessity is
no reason to throw away human life.

�Guest Opinion

Because we do not love life:
reflections on the arms race
by Walter Simpson
The neutron bomb? Does it scare you? Does it make
you sick? Or perhaps you just can’t figure out why other
people are worrying about it.
In case you’ve been on the moon, the neutron bomb,
also called “the people killer," is the latest model nuclear
weapon and it has the remarkable ability to kill people
(with a burst of neutrons) while leaving property and
material structures undamaged. A wonder of modern
science. And in a fit of obscenity the U.S. House of
Representatives just voted (297-109) to go ahead with the
productiqn of this nightmarish device.
Yes, some of us have been shocked by the neturon
bomb, but it’s the exception. The cruise missile never
turned out heads: and we were only slightly annoyed by
the B-l bomber. What is it about the nuclear arms race
that leaves us so indifferent? So unmoved? Here we are,
captives of the doctrine of Mututal Assured Destruction
(MAD), and what do we do?
Nothing.
We sit back studying Anglo-American lipistemology
(or some such thing) while a small number of men stand in
charge of vast nuclear arsenals that can make ashes of us
and of every thing else on earth.
You say that nuclear weapons are necessary to protect
democracy? But what’s democratic about Carter and
Brezhnev deciding for everyone whether the world has a
future? In a crisis, see if either one of them takes a vote!

To put it bluptly, we’ve been had. Moreover. We have

acquiesced. We have accepted the fate of hostages of the
nuclear arms race. Though we are not tied and gagged, we
might as welfbe. We are silefit and passive.
But why?
For the answer to this question, we'll have to examine
to
ourselves closely, turning from epistemology
psychology. Psychologists tell us that one way W(i handle
difficult conflicts is by denying them. The suburbanite

says, “Drug addiction? It can’t happen here!” liven though
bis own son is strung out right before his own eyes.
It is the same with nuclear weapons. “They’ll never be
used,’’ we say to comfort ourselves. We conveniently
forget evidence that points to a different conclusion:
Hiroshima and Nagasaki, 1945: the brinkmanship
exemplified by the Cuban Missile Crisis: Nixon’s plans to
use nukes in Vietnam; NATO’s current “possible first-use"
doctrine: the expansion of the “nuclear club” as more
countries obtain the bomb: and, of course, the ever-present
possibility of an ejrror or accidqpt.
In addition, let’s not foist that neutron bomb. One
major objection to it is thar it will lower the nuclear
threshold and make the use of nuclear weapons more
likely. Because the neutron bomb won’t cause the physical
destruction that other nuclear weapons would, the use of
the neutron bomb will be viewed as less unthinkable, or, in
other words, as more acceptable.
But how can the use of
nuclear weapon be
''

-

This makes it all too easy to acquiesce. Nobel laureate
Albert Szent-Gyorgyi explains: “When ray wife tells me,
‘The water is hot.* I am careful; but if I hear that an
atomic explosion has IS million degrees of heat, it means
nothing to me... 1 am deeply moved if I see a man
suffering and 1 would risk my life for him. Then I talk
impersonally about the possible pulverization of our big
jcities. with a hundred million dead. I am unable to
multiply one man’s suffering by a hundred million.”
Indeed, even our terms are misleading and our
thinking is archaic. We speak of something called “national
security,” yet after spending over SI.5 trillion on it since
the end of World War 11. our country has no defense
against missiles and can be destroyed in 30 minutes. We
call it a “nuclear arms race” as though we can win if we
somehow stay ahead, yet if the race continues, everyone
will lose. The warriors clamor for something called
“nuclear superiority.” but do the relative sizes of nuclear
arsenals have any meaning in a world where the
superpowers can already destroy each other niany times
over?
Albert Finstein said: ‘‘The unleashed power of the
atom has changed everything except our ways of thinking.
Thus we are drifting toward a catastrophe beyond
'

comparison.”

Yes, we are locked into old ways of thinking.
When we think of a bomb, we think of a hand grenade or a
stock of dynamite. When we think of a war. we try to
imagine wars that have come before. Recognising this.

Finstein called for “a substantially new manner of thinking
if mankind is to survive.”
Yes, the arms race is scary. And we arc afraid afraid
of atomic bombs and afraid of death and failure and
loneliness and afraid of sex and afraid of love. What often
goes unnoticed, however, is the incapacitating effect of
fear. Fear functions to make us acquiesce. It distorts our
perception and impairs our judgment and ability to reason.
It also paralyzes our actions. In fact, if we are desperate
enough, we will buy anything including the reckless and
blasphemous slogan of the Cold Warriors:' In Arms We
Trust.
As.we hope and pray for a real breakthrough in the
SALT talks, let me leave you with the words of lirich
do not
Fromm: “How can we understand that people

think that a nuclear war can be
contained. That it can be limited to two or three neat,
clean, surgical neutron bomb blasts.
But who knows?
One of our favorite pastimes is passing the buck.
Forgetting that Nixons can be president and that a
generation of well-dressed think tankers brought us the
war in Vietnam, some of us acquiesce to the arms race by
leaving the MIRVs and the MARVs to the president and
his Pentagon and State Department experts.
But can we trust them to care about us?
We also evade responsibility by pleading powerlessness
jn the face of the military-industrial complex. We retreat
into the woodwork. But the feeling of powerlessness js a
self-fulfilling prophesy.
Where are we heading?

‘To the Editor

To the Editor.

I would like to respond to the self-centered
points which have been recently expressed in The
Spectrum by the Committee to Reverse the Bakke
Decision.
How the committee fails to see the REAL beef
behind the opposition to quota laws is beyond me.
The reason for my opposition is one of personal
gain, but everyone else benefits or loses similarly. It
is best explained from the case of quotas among
prospective doctors. I personally don’t care if my
doctor is black, white, green, purple, or whatever
(and 1 don’t think that many others would care,
either). AH I care about is whether or not he gets the
job done, it is more likely to get done by someone
with high grades in med school than by someone
with lower grades who snuck through on a ludicrous
quota law. And with doctors’ fees the way they are
today, I had better get the best people I can. But
with quota laws, my chances of doing so are
diminished. So you see, committee members, my
opposition isn’t one of racism. It’s one of good
health care.
Your guest opinion of October 5 further
convinces me Of the weakness of their position. How
Anita Bryant’s campaign or the Nazi march through
Skoki, Illinois would benefit the well-to-do white
male is beyond me.
Furthermore, 1 wholeheartedly support the
decision to stop federally funded abortions. It’s
about time that tax dollars stopped going toward the
murder of .society’s most innocent Human beings;
the unborn. This is especially true of abortions
committed for “mental health” reasons (who do
those “mosthers” think they’re kidding?. Their only
mental problem is inability to refrain from sexual
pleasures when they know full well of the
consequences beforehand. And it’s a bigger problem
than the financial inabilities which many of them
claim.

I am not a well-to-do white male, although
someday I may be. But I doubt that any of these
decisions could help me more than anyone else.
in conclusion, I am more convinced than ever,
after reading the committee’s comments, that the
Bakke decision was in fact correct. And may I
suggest that instead of channeling their efforts into
maintaining a harmful quota law, they channel them
into obtaining an equal education system which they
correctly claim is needed, and which would eliminate
the need for silly quotas.

While glancing through the “Letters” column on
Friday morning, we came across an obsenity in the
guise of a reply to an article written about the New
York Yankees. We are referring to the vicious attack
made by “Barbarian" against the City of New York

•nd its inhabitants.
Over the past few difficult years of the City’s
history, we have tired of two-legged vermin of
Barbarian’s type who delight in the current plight of
the city. Much like their fellow low-life in New
Jersey who relish their stamped-out houses and
shopping malls, these people do not seem to realize
that New York City is the commercial, political and

entertainment capital of the nation, if not the world.
Any event that, takes place in New York City
directly affects the entire world.
As for his uncalled for volley against the New

York Times, we are sure that Barbarian would be
wiser to read it than the dish-rag that is published in
his home town. New York City incidentally remains
the journalistic capital of the world.
Finally we would like to suggest a visit by
Barbarian to the city before he attempts to slander it
again. Unfortunately we are almost certain that he is

Stealing seats
To the h.Jit or

While waiting for the doors of the Clark Gym to
be opened to the audience of the Sandy Bigtree and
Robert Klein performance, I viewed a great amount
of stealing. When one attends a show or concert in
which there aren’t assigned seats, payment is made in
two ways; both by buying a ticket, and also by
expending time and patience standing in a line.
Those that have the time and desire will often stand
for hours before the beginning of the show suffering
boredom and inconvenience in order to obtain good

People who break into a line instead of going to the
end are robbers. By stealing other people’s lime and
labor they act in an anti-social and selfish manner. I
am angry with the individuals themselves that did

Spanish-American war convinced the U.S. of the
need to build the canal. When Columbia rejected
outrageous U.S. demands, U.S. decided to support
the Independence movement in Panama. With U.S.
troops and warships standing by to thwart any
Columbian attack, Panama became independent in
1903, And within two weeks, Panama was locked
into a treaty even more disadvantageous than the
one the U.S. proposed to Columbia. It was not even
negotiated by the Panamanians. The treaty granted
the U.S. all power and ■ authority “as if it were
sovereign” in the canal zoric, a strip of 500 square
miles and this in perpetuity f

*****

The United Steles has signed a new treaty on
calls for the gradual transfer of
control over the Panama Canal and the Canal Zone
from the U S. to the Panamanian government by the
end of the century. The treaty also gives the U.S. the
permanent right to share the defense of the canal
with Panama even after It. comes under Panamanian
jurisdiction. Sut the struggle the Panamanian people
have been waging for more than 70 years is not to
replace the unequal treaty of 1903 imposed on them
by another unequal treaty. The just demand of the
Panamanian people is ter full sovereignty over their
country and for the complete and immediate
withdrawal of all U.S. military installations, bases
and troops from the Panamanian territory. These
aspirations were best summed up in the statement:
“The Panamanian people can no longer put up with
the existence of a partition wall, a foreign wall, a
foreign cop, a forcefully hoisted flag, or an imposed
judge.” Hence the signing of the new treaty can in
no way signify the end of the struggle of the
made abundantly
Panamanian people. This has
clear, when on the eve of the treaty ceremony, the
Panamanians demonstrated under the banner, “As
long as one American soldier remains oh Panamanian
soil, Panama will not be free.”
Hens in the U.S., in (he course of the current
debate over the ratification of the treaty, an
euphoria has been federated to convince the
American people that the Panama canal is “ours.”
Typical of this imperialist rhetoric is the statement
of Regan and others on the canal: “We bought it. we
built it, we paid for it -V;” But a look at history
exposes these lies and shows that, in fact, the
Panama Canal belongs to the Panamanian people.

construction of the canal itself involved hardly any
U.S. workers; 90 percent of the Workforce was
,:

..

Blacks brought from the West Indies and the rest
were Panamanians and workers from neighboring
countries, who were paid $.10 an hour. In the ten
years of construction, a staggering total of more than
32,000 workers died of disease, accidents and the
generally terrible working conditions..
Since the canal was completed in 1914; it has
served Ao nation as it has served the U.S., and
Panama, the least of all. The Panama ('anal Company
is a state monopoly owned by the U.S. Over 70
percent of the total tonnage that is routed through
the canal annually, h«s either originated in or been
destined for the United States. The toll rates
originally set in 1914. have not been increased until
just over three years ago. This artificial low toll rate
constitutes a massive, disguised subsidy to U.S.
trade. Recent studiei. of the United Nations
Hconomic Commission for Latin America show that
the self-serving U.$. toll policy constitutes a 600-700
mHlion dollar savings per year. This sum dwarfs the
famous ten million dollars paid to Panama for the
. use of the canal zone in 1904. The U.S. pays Panama
a token annuity of about 2 million dollars per year,
while it collects over 100 million dollars annually in
toll alone. And this is in addition to the disguised
profits referred to before. It is to this-reality the
Regans of the United States refer, when they claim:
«We bought it. we paid for it and it is ours!"
Panama as Part o) U.S. Imperialist Policy .The
conditions of the 1903 treaty stipulate that the U.S.
is allowed only such military presence as is
absolutely necessary for the protection and the

defense of the canal. But pne can clearly see today
the relationship between U.S. military presence in
Panama and its imperialist practices throughout
Latin America. The Pentagon has turned 68 percent
of the Canal Zone’s territory into a virtual military
garrison, while the canal operation and the towns
associated with it occupy a meager 3.6 percent of
the land area. It is home for 13 army, marine and air
force bases, 14,000 U.S. troops, a Creen Beret
Training Program, and the headquarters for U.S.
the Southern
military operations in Latin America
Command (SOUTHCOM); The connections between
SOUTHCQM, recently renamed the 193rd Brigade,
and Latin American militarism are obvious. Since the
late 1940s, some 40,000 Latin American military
and special police forces have passed through the
School of the Americas, where the curriculum ranges
from counterinsurgency to an introduction to the
“American way of life." SOUTHCOM also
coordinates the work of U.&amp;. “military groups”
teams of U.S. advisors maintained m 16 Latin
American countires. It is no surprise that countless
U.S. military interventions into Latin American
countries have been launched from the Canal Zone.
Panama Struggles for Sovereignty: Throughout
the last 60 or more years, the Panamanian .people
have been waging relentless struggles to achieve
sovereignty as a nation and as a people, and against,
all modes of domination, control and plunder by
U.S. imperialism. Most recently in 1464. Panamanian
students marched into the Canal Zone and raised the
I’anamanian flag amidst the bullets of the U S. army.
More than 500 Panamanians were wounded and 22
killed. The Panamanian government broke off
diplomatic relations with the U.S. The struggles of
the Panamanian people have won wide support and
sympathy from various countries and people of the
world, particularly those from Latin America.
The United Stales hopes that the new treaty
would he a minor concession to Panama in order to
preserve the hulk of Us control over I.at in America
(including Panama) and to ward off a decisive defeat
hy the Latin American people. But the Panamanian
people who have firmly waged a protracted struggle
are bound to carry through to the end. their struggle
to attain full sovereignty over the canal and uphold
their national independence. The Panama Canal

To the Editor

I would like to congratulate you and your staff,
especially the photographer oh the photograph of

the 1974 Matador on page 4, Oct. 7 The Spectrum.
I am at a loss. Why would you print -such
nonsense and then assert that one of." the autos
belongs to Dr. Ketter?
From your photo, you cannot draw any
conclusions except that there are two autos in-it.
They both appear to be white; both are in violation
of the no-parking ordinance. The overall photo it of
poor quality.
I cannot find any identifying marks
license

plate, name plate, state sticker, etc. on the Matador.
I can't s£e how you expect anyone else to. Your
statement is based on the assumption that everyone
should believe what you are saying because of your
photo. Such an assumption is absurd!
Would it not had been easier to move to the
front of the Matador and taken a photo that
included the license plate? The ownership of that
auto could then be readily verified. But as you have
it, the photo does nothing to support your
statement.
By the way, doesn’t anyone on your sta f
proofread?

Parking tickets
To the Edit(Mr.

Last week I received a $6 parking- ticket issued
the City of Buffalo Police Department. The
violation stated was, "on public or private property
without permission.”
As a commuter, every day I face the problem of
limited parking space. On that day. 1. was parked in a
student lot, not blocking traffic; however, I still
received a ticket.
by

Many others have and still park-where I did;
some receive tickets and others don’t. In all fairness,
a warning would be sufficient for us already
disheartened commuters.
Judith Boland

P.S. Judging from the picture which appeared in the
October 7 The Spectrum, President Ketter is due
about a $12 parking fine.

Relegate the news
To the Editor:

I am amused at your blatant attempts-at.
journalism. First you run two pages on the New
York Yankees, a baseball team not connected with
this University. This created a. furor amopg students
in the editorial pages of the issue of 7 October. Yet,
in the self-same issue the front page concerned itself
with the competition between the "major Buffalo

papers.
Must I remind you of your basic Reading public?
They are University-connected people. A front page
article should concern itself with University events.
What was wrong with putting the article on student
fees which appeared on page four in the same issue
on the front page!! Instead of the article on the
poor, poor Courier getting wiped out by the Buffalo
Evening News which should go in the hditorial

page?
Perhaps you have forgotten this is a University
paper. Or are you trying to .compete with the
financially reeling Courier. Or are you trying to get a
job later on by showing the Courier editors you
understand their total news concept?
The very fact that the Courier is losing half a
million dollars this year alone on their ‘total news
concept' should indicate to you that somethiiig is
not working.
Perhaps both you and the Courier should
abandon yoiir much-flaunted concept. But most of
all you should get back to reporting the news of the
University and leave world news to the major
Buffalo papers or at least relegate such articles as
these to the Inside pages.

Olympic champions
To the Editor:
We are declaring ourselves victors in the UB
Olympics 'Coed Basketball.’ We seemed to be the
only ones who showed up, crawling out of bed early
two mornings because no one could iind ouf the
Olympics’ status. If the people running, the event
decided to postpone or cancel the Olympics,, the
participants should have been informed. A
University this size could easily have an information
phone number or at least give the information to the
radio stations. (This is also true about snow days.f
Who was running this "event,” anyway?Does

the administration deserve the blame or was this
student-run. The Spectrum printed an article titled,
"Olympics Designed to Bring the University
Together.” If the five of us arc the University, fine.
But I do see a lot more people around all the
campuses.
Do they count? We non-apathetic

students would like a chance. Maybe apathetic
students are only created through frustration.

this is not the case at a Zappa show. He

One thing about Frank Zappa
is that tab nut afraid to sp«k hi. mind,
'With this two and a half hour
performance, Zappa gave the audience all
t*’ e*r Phoney's worth. There were the
typical props, including a bicycle horn and
a m°d** of a police car. Zappa made the
audience feel right at home, talking to
them throughout the show. During the
encore he reached out and slapped hands
with the crowd. When a girl was trying to
get on the stage he said "come on up" and
she stayed there, holding on to him, for the
remainder of the song. Most performers
would not allow these things to happen,

The tunes off his new album indicate
that it will be high quality Zappa, covering
a spectrum of styles, from punk rock to
one tune that was very much in the
Weather Report vein. Before his final exit,
F.Z. ulcered what seemed to be hit favorite
words, "Is that a real poncho or is that a
Sears poncho?"

�to its limits: John Fahey, Leo Kottke and Robbie
And tomorrow night, Robbie Basho, who Crawdaddy
placed in such fast company, brings his transcendental guitar to the
UUAB Coffeehouse (tonight at 9:30 p.m. in Spaulding Halt’s 1st. Floor
Cafeteria). Also appearing will be traditional singer. Bill Maraschiello.
For many years, Basho's reputation among guitar fans has been
immense, and has been spreading to other areas of the musical
spectrum as well. His style on 6- and 12-string guitars is a virtuoso
combination of Indian (both Hindu and American), Persian, Chinese,
and folk influences; he calls his fluid, flowing way of playing "the new
Pegasus technique first you ride, then you fly."

Six-string orchestra
"My main concern", Basho has said, "is to establish the steel-string
guitar as a concert instrument in America." Basho has gone further in
this direction than either Fahey or Kottke: many of his compositions
are, in effect, symphonies, for the guitar (such as "Lost Lagoon Suite"
on his Taloma album The Falconer's Arm Vol. I). Others are closer to a
kind of music that expresses America in the same way that the raga
expresses India. Basho has studied with Indian master Ali Akbar Khan.)

His command of the guitar is astounding. In amazing complexity
or striking simplicity, he draws out the colors of a forest or a desert, of
gods or or lovers. His voice is almost as much an instrument as his
guitar, and he often uses it as a wordless counterpoint to his playing.
In over a decade, Basho has recorded for John Fahey's Takoma
The Falconer's Arm, the superb Song of the Stallion. Blue Thumb
Venus in Cancer, whose testeless cover conceals some wonderful music
and Vanguard The Voice of the Eagle. A longtime resident of Berkeley,
he's wanted to play "the Berkeley of the East" (that's Buffalo, believe
it or not) for a long time; his appearance is very welcome to everyone
who enjoys extraordinary guitar.

�RECORDS

■'Life is not so petty as to give you but a single
opportunity.
—Leo Smith
"

Life, as a whole, has given the world several
opportunities to view the creative processes which govern
Nature. From the Oogon art of Africa to the gypsy
rhapsodies of Bartok, from the oceanic philosophies of
Asia to sunrise on a Brazilian guitar (for Marpessa Dawn),
the ages continue. Creation, it is alvyays those who seek to
confine growth that masks the intention amidst a blinding
sea of “safety' or 'conformity.' The ease of labels. Call it
dogma.

But in their room, as they forewarn.
Wolves shall succeed for teachers, grievous wolves,
Who all the sacred mysteries of Heaven
To their own tlile advantages shall turn
Of lucre and ambition, and the truth
With superstitions and traditions taint,
Left only in those writtenrecords pure.
Though not but by the Spirit understood.
-Milton, Paradise Lost XII 507-14

!n the creative musicks spun in the caress and in the
crucible of Black American and other cultures, we find
these varied world cultures in a cross current. Exchange as
a widening of basic identity. From the beginnings in this
country (who can say the exact moment?), it has always
been a question of expression, of utilizing the means in the
immeidate environment to communicate a basic idea; to
make a conversation. Nowadays, the term "immediate
or
environment" becomes as close as one's TV or radio
can be, if creative forces are given equal access to more
than the "equal right to fail," as one irate reviewer
liberalized recently.

often do, with many ignorant of how their days develop
and what their wants (or needs) really are. As Leo points
out in the 11/75 issue of Code, the inescapable reason for
the mass public's onconsistent taste is that the people are
subtlety (subconsciously?) isolated by the media (however

that applies) from certain elements that grow from their
own community, on the grounds of potential salability
(control via monopoly) or their 'difference' from the
‘status quo'; (meaning; refusal to be less than one's self is a

The 1970 concert of the Peace Church (CCC, Vol. 1 &amp;

some hard brilliance is coming
orange hard hat that day
for you). On that day, Leo pulled our a French horn, an
instrument he started on long ago (he says he was terrible),
and the sound is one akin to the first sounding of a royal
quest. His brassy sound on Leroy Jenkins' orchestral
collectif For Players Only and Clifford Thornton's balladic
Gardens Of Harlem (Jazz Composers of America, JCOA
Records) projects the folk sound, soft and assured in
searching strength. His composition of Manhattan Cycles
conveys the need for such strength (this spans an entire
album by The Revolutionary Ensemble on India
Navigation, a classic) in the face of wuthering urban
'heights.' His present locale near New Haven, Connecticut
reflects the pastoral background, ever-present, in all his
endeavors.

will recall the classic march theme and Leo's trumpet
scream exploding like a firecracker, opening even newer
horizons. (Leo also was the conductor for this tune, and
the two Ellington-Gillespie oriented tunes. To Billboard:
Anthony always swings and s/ngs!) Leo is also with
Anthony on Trio and Duet (Toronto's Sackville Records),
along with synthesizer master Richard Teitlbaum (who has
a superb Arista Freedom LP, Time Zones, with Anthony),
and Dave Holland, wizard of the bass. The acoustic power
of electronics merge in a spiraling aurora of dreams'
delight.

Michael Gregory Jackson's Clarity (Bi|a) is the Music
of the Sun pouring thru the mists of fresh fallen raid.
Michael, whose guitar work ranges from flamenco to
soulful folk melodies and more, is joined by Leo, Oliver
Lake, and David Murrary, a tenor master whose sound
brings the heat of newborn volcanoes to bear. The hour of
the communal tribunal is at hand, an exotic familiarity.
Even the fragrancy of WHdtlowers (The Loft Sessions on
Douglas Records) are but a poignant prelude.
Leo also teaches at the Creative Music Studio in
Woodstock. The Studio, the concept of vibesmaster Karl
Berger, is a locale for musicians to gather and exchange
views with each other, as well as a learning center to
develop one's knowledge and skill. A place for free flowing
self-discipline. Enjoyment.

�Talking Hands, Talking Heads: 77 (Sira)

One day I came upon this photog sequence in some rock mag. (last
year's vintage) and scanned it till I noticed three semi-human looking
people playing their instrumnets expressionless and solemn. It seemed
as If these folks were trying to look too normal NO IMAGE ... neat
process. But the aura depicted some sort of innocence about what they
were playing. And I immediately began to grow curious of the musical
attributes that surrounded Talking Heads, (maybe it was just the way
Tina and David would stand toward each other). My curiousity had no
idea that the music could explode so heavily in the form "Loves Goes
Building On Fire," the first single they recorded for Sire. The forty-five

even included that nearly extinct process of a picture sleeve photo
(three normals, clam and cute).
Since that time the forty-five has evolved into a complete thirty
three long player Talking Heads: 77. And what it clearly proves is that
guitarist/composer David Byrne has scaled a new medium form of
intergajactic pop. Tempos rush and bounce in impetuous and fun-like
meters hooking in such odd tonality that the stuff breathes musical life
into eardrums exposed the normally of AM airplay. With this one
release David has come into his own. He's mastered the precision of the
verse in a simple but gloriously effective way that even his fellow
associates, (Ron Mael, lOcc, and Alex Harvey) would highly acclaim.
For openers the group once again displays a fine piece of hit magic

three listenings before I was humming and whistling the tune in my

Jane sincerity with plenty of promiscuous asides and neurotic habits of
self-consciousness. If the Stranglers' leader, Hugh Cornwell, evokes a
world of rejection and sexual frustration, then David is the jester who
would taunt him. One of the best cuts next to the opener; "Don't
Worry About the Government" displays the group at their best

Add David's intonations, (his voice rises and quivers near falsetto
peak when he gets excited or drarhatic). He also has this humoresque
style of impedance, ("psycho killer, qu'est-ce que c'est?, fa fa fa fa")
which is like Willie Wonka bumping heads with Raymond Chandler.
The other element in Talking Heads music include the inventive
formula of calypso plus pop, to x2 plus pop, they definately stretch to
a great degree of variance.
Personnel consists of drummer Chris Frantz, bassist Tina
Weymouth, (married to Chris), who along with David Byrne comprise
the original trio of Talking Heads which met at the Rhode Island
School of Design in 74'. The latest addition is keyboards/guitarist,
Jerry Harrison, formerly of the Modern Lovers nad an invaluable asset
to the rich bulk of the melodies, especially when the group performs
live. So now there are four normal looking people in Talking Heads.

Ron Carter Quartet, Piccolo (Milestone)
When talking bass, the name to remember is
Ron Carter. Voted best acoustic bassist in the
country by Down Boat Critics and Readers Poll for
the past seven years. Carter is by far the
contemporary jazz overlord of the bass. He has
played with a virtually endless list of modern jazz
greats, and has preformed on over 400 albums in the
last ten years. Naturally, when one picks up a new
Ron Carter album, he/she is in for an ecstatic
adventure.
On Piccolo, the Ron Carter Quartet consists of
drums, piano and two basses. Buster Williams plays a
regular, upright acoustic bass, while Carter plays a
custom designed piccolo bass. The piccolo bass is the
size of a cello with the strings tuned upside-down
(C,G,D,A), at on a cello; This is a style rarely
experimented with in jazz, specifically in quartets,
yet it is this which gives the album its exquisite
pre-eminence.

Originally Ron Carter played the ciauical cello,
which he prefers to the bass. He graduated from
Eastman School of Music with a B.A. and received
his masters from the Manhattan School of Music.
However, he had trouble breaking the color barrier
of classical orchestras. It was for this reason, and
because most people are not into classical music,
that Ron made the switch to jazz. He started out
with Chico Hamilton in 1959 and from these went
to freelancing and studio sessions. In 1963 he joined
Miles Davis' famed quintet and the rest is history.
During this summer he toured with Herbie
Hancock's VSOP, for obvious musical reasons, and
for an opportunity to expand his audience. Piccolo
will, no doubt, encourage others to join the already
immense bond of Ron Carter admirers.
Piccolo spans a wide range of the jazz spectrum.
From the blues bop of Thelonius Monk's "Blue

Monk" (and Carter does bop with his lead piccolo
bass),
to the
long, weaving interludes of
"Sunshower" Ron makes a believer out of skeptics
who say a bass player can not lead a group. His bow
allows the auditor to flow along with "Sunshower"

while Buster Williams keeps the pieces together with
a rich bass tine backing Ron's leads. Kenny Berron is
the consummate pianist for the occasion. He is never
overpowering but comes through with the lustihood
that only a craftsman of his ability can attain. Ben
Riley completes the rhythm quartet on drums.
"Saguaro", written by Carter, opens this two
record LP. and enables the listener to umple some
of the most brilliant improvisation around today.
The session was recorded at Sweet Basil's, on 7th
Avenue South in New York City, which provides a
musical atmosphere that can not be rivaled. First
glimpses bring to mind Coltranes "Impressions", but
the quartet springs to the melody of "Suicide is
Painless" (Theme from M*A*S*H). The track swings
for a while with Barron taking charge, leading the
way for a magnificent interlude of piccolo and
standard base. Carter transverses the scales with the
cleanliness only a master can achieve vdiich leaves
the audience, at home and at Sweet Basil's stupefied.
This album is a total musical triumph. I'm afraid
I originally questioned the musical enjoyment I
would receive out of the album, but Carter proved
me wrong, He displays a virtuoso on 'Three Little
Words" that leaves me with a similar jubilant
sensation produced by John Coltrane, on the same
track, from the immortal Bags and Trane album.
Buster Williams says itbest about the duo bass: "It's
a totally unique situation. The contrast between the
two basses is what makes it work so beautifully."
Here is an album with great trend setting qualities
and is a must for any jazz connoisseurs' collection.

Gong Live, Etc. (Virgin)
Pot head pixies rejoice. Planet Gong lives. Flying
teapots are once again being sighted, at least in the
form of this double live import. The number of
double live LP's continue to flow, but here we have
the cream of the crop. At least in terms of the
relatively unknown European groups such as Magma
and Gong.
If you want to compare: the European Mothers
of Invention with composer/poet/humorist/guitarist
Daevid Allen posing as Frank Zappa.
Here we have vintage Gong circa 1973/75 in the
form of Daevid Allen (guitar, vocals), "Bloomdido"
Oidler Malherbe (saxes, flute, percussion), Gilli
Smyth (space whisper), Steve Hillage (guitar, vocals),
Mike Hewlett (bass, vocals), "Moonweed" Tim Blake
(synthesisers, vocals), Pierre Moerlen (drums), Rob
Tate (drums), Di Stewart (vocals and percussion),
Mireille Bauer (percussion), Miquette Giraudy
(voices yonic), and last but not least Patrice Lemoine
(keyboards). This lineup is one which has covered
the lifespan of Gong during the three year period
mentioned earlier, so beware, be aware.
"You can't kill me" from the first LP
"Camembert Electrique" (recorded in 1971) is a
fitting beginning to a great album followed by "Zero
the hero and the witches spell" from "Radio Gnome
Invisible, Part I—The Flying Teapot", which was the
beginning of the the famous Radio Gnome trilogy.
Both songs were recorded in May 1973 at the
Edinburgh Festival, along with the final tune on side
one "Flying teapot". Side two returns t
"Camembert Electique" with "Dynamite/I am your
animal" and "6/8" from the LP "Angels Egg".
"Est-Ce Que Je Suis" an unreleased by Allen
continues and all were recorded at "Club Arc-Enciel,

"Ooby-Scooby Doomsday of The D-Day DJ's Got
The O.O.T. Blues" was recorded at Manor Studio, in
June 1973 a one off attempt at Daevid's idea of a
previously unreleased.
top 40 hit single
"Radio Gnome Invisible" starts off side three.
Daevid Allen leads off with his "pot head pixie"
rhetoric which continues in the form of "Bloomdido
Bad De Grasse" (Malherbe) and a fine soprano sax
intro. "Oily Way" shows how fine a flautist
Malherbe is with Allen and Smyth adding strong
vocals. "Outer Temple" and "Inner Temple" follow
from "Angels Egg" and showcase Tim Blake's
surrealistic synthesiser doodling. These recorded live
at BBC Studios January 1974. Lastly on side three is
another unreleased cut "Where haveall the flowers
gone" another abortive attempt single recorded at
Manor studios.
Side four is the final landing of the flying
teapot. "Isle of Everywhere" from the LP You, (Part
three of the Radio Gnome trilogy) really have
Moerlen (drums) and Malherbe (sax) cooking right
straight thru "Master builder" and ending with
"Flying teapot". The whole side recorded at the
Marquee dub. Sept. 1975 sans Daevid Allen and
most of the Gong Lineup from 1973.
This last side is truly a sad final note to the
classic Gong mythology of the "Pot head pixies".
After Allen had split early in 1975 Steve Hillage
soon followed and what we had known of Gong was
only a memory. This live album, for all you from the
planet Gong, is a must if you can find it. But don't
despair, another live album soon to come, is a
reunion of the original Gong group. It should prove
to be interesting. Good luck in finding both of these.

�Claude Chabrol fans
applaud merits of his
melodramatic movie

off

WM

by Sandy Miller
Spectrum Arts Staff

Just Before Midnight, first released in 1971, is Claude Chabrol at
his finest. It will be showing at the Valu Cinema through Tuesday,
October 18.
Returning to a familiar theme, Director Chabrol weaves a stark,
haunting psychological melodrama around a murder. Charles (Michael
Bouquet) is visiting his mistress, Laura. Her perverse game playing turns
all too real as Charles strangles Laura instead of releasing her neck from
his grasp. Charles, understandably shaken by this chain of events, leaves
the scene of the crime.
Charles’ guilt over his crime begins to gnaw at him. Complicating
matters is his friendship with Francois (Francois Perrier), the dead
woman s husband. An architect who has built Charles’ home in the
suburbs of Paris, Francois is not overly grieved at his wife’s death. He
shares a sedate, almost emotionless character with Charles. The one
exceptiorT to the emdtiotial sterility Charles exhibits is his increasingly
consuming guilt over the murder.
Finding it more and more difficult to sleep, Charles takes larger
and larger doses of laudanum to relieve the insomnia. Finally, Charles
cannot stand being the only one who knows of his deed, and he
confesses everything to his wife Helene (Stephane Audran). Helene
unabashedly says she understands and forgives his transgressions.
Charles is unrelieved by this, as his need is not to be forgiven, but to be
somehow punished.
Seeking solace in further confessions, Charles tells the whole truth
to Francois. Francois shows even less shock than Helene at these
revelations. Indeed, without even batting an eyelash, Francois absolves
Charlfes from all guilt in his eyes with the remark, “No one is guilty of
acts performed in a nightmare.” It is as if their lives have meaning equal
to that of dreams none at all.
-

Social Class Denial

On another level Chabrol explores the intellectual fancies of the
bourgeoise and their seeming denial of their social class as a means of
expurgation. Francoise and Charles are both extremely successful
economically, as evidenced by their material possessions. Charles has
had Francois design and build an ultra-modern home according to a
theory Charles has regarding sclerosis, the bourgeoise, and modernity.
As Francois relates the theory, the interior design of Charles’ home will
keep him from thinking of himself as bourgeoise, and from developing
sclerosis.
Chabrol has provided a subtle but effective critique of the
middle-class. Their simplicity of thought and emotions and commitant
plethora of material possessions is the wrong formula for achieving
happiness, as his characters have plenty of the former and none of the
latter. They are morally decadent, as symbolized by Charles, Francois,
Helene and Laura (during her brief appearance). It is this weakness of
character that would not let Charles extricate himself from his love
affair before it was too late. It is this same weakness that manifests
itself in his overpowering desire to be punished. Charles is a rather poor
murderer.
Few weaknesses
Just Before Midnight has few weaknesses, if any. Chabrol gets a

happiness is not translatable from material goods. Nor
is the middle class an admirable entity. This is no great discovery, but
usually their haplessness is treated with more compassion. I’m not
trying to give the impression that this film is radical chic or simply
radical. I am stressing the importance of much of Chabrol’s social
Edouard
commentary (credit here must also go to the author
Atiyah). There is, as well, a great deal of psychological meaning

This film should be seen by fans of Chabrol, serious students of
film, and anyone else interested in seeing a fine flick.

Buffalo’s Field Hockey team defeated St. Bdnaventure 1*0 for
their first victory of the season with an excellent team effort. UB
played sharply from start to finish and the game was. not as close as the

A penalty shot early in the game by forward Gabby Gray was
stopped by the Bomies’ goalie, who kept the game close despite
constant UB pressure. Cray missed anothersCoring opportunity when a
shot roHedacross the goal crease and'went out of bounds.
The pressure finally paid off for Buffalo with thirty seconds to go
in the first half when Halfback Kerry Halstk put home a rebound shot
off a scramble in front. The goal was especially satisfying because UB
had been shut out for almost five periods of play in previous games.

According to staff members, the

earlier switched to an easier to

Heated controversy over IDs
by John H. Reiss
Managing Editor

The already nebulous question
of student participation in the
approval
of
this
year’s
controversial ID card design was
further clouded Wednesday when
queries to both students and
in
administrators
resulted

contradictory reports.

Administrators continued to
insist that students ratified the
final design of the card despite
student officials’ protests that the
ultimate decision was reached
without their consent.
Scott
Peres,
Lee
a
representative on last year’s ID
card committee, claimed that he
and Student Association (SA)
officials Steve Schwartz and Steve
Spiegel received a “rough draft”
of the proposed card, which they
approved. That card, according to
Perez, contained “all the vital
information one would assume
would appear on an ID card,”
including a computerized strip for
library use, address, date of birth
and signature.
Perez said that he approved the
draft upder the assumption that if
the design were to be altered, he,
or other student officials would
be notified. “We got the card we
wanted, and approved it,” Pern
clrimed. “Then this crap came

out. It’s just a different card. It’s
we
not
the
card
simply
approved.”

‘The best card possible’
What transpired between the
time SA officials ratified the
design and the time the final
decision was made is apparently a
mystery to all, including those
who were present at the final
meeting.

Vice President for
Housing, Student Accounts and
Assistant

and University Police Technical
Assistant Charles Brunskill were at

The library system is preparing to vacate its existing facilities in
anticipation of the eventual relocation to more elaborate quarters at
the Amherst Campus.
.
4' .
This is a task which, according to Lockwood Head Librarian
Madeline Stem, is terribly difficult, important and “a landmark in the
history of the University.”
Following the closing of the Ridge Lea and Bell libraries, the
University now quintains twelve facilities. Of these twelve facilities
“not one is in good shape,” said Director of Libraries Saktidas Roy.
Referring to their fiscal well-being, he.said there has either been a cut
back of services or a reduction in hours at each facility.
System suffering
The system, which now has a collection of 1,743,912 bound
volumes and periodicals, is suffering, as it has in past years, from a
series of budget cuts. Even though the enhancing of the library system
has been a top priority of University President Robert Ketter, fiscal
problems still exist. “The problems lie with the Division of Budget
(DOB),” explained Roy. He emphasized that “DOB has been
interferring too much and is concerned only with dollars, not books."
As of the 1972 fiscal year, the University library system has not
been granted at ‘substantial increase in funds. Since then, the average
price of United states’ periodicals has increased by 41 percent and the
average hard cover U.S. trade book price has risen a substantial 25
percent. The inflationary budget adjustments awarded to cover the
rising cost have proven to be insufficient.
The effects of the stagnating budget are far reaching. In the past
seven years there have been three major cutbacks of journal
subscriptions and, according to Roy, new book acquisitions have been
carefully selected. He claimed, ‘There is an inadequate number of
workers and therefore we have had to limit ourselves on what we want
to do.”
Reductions

FREE IN CAR HEATERS

hnl..'

j*, v
Library hours have also been reduced. For example, Lockwood
Library originally was slated to be open for 105 hours per week, but
has only served the campus community for 95 hours weekly. The
Undergraduate Library (UGL) has also made cutbacks in service due to
money shortages. The Interlibrary Loan System, from which materials
for research may be borrowed or photocopied from sources outside the
SUNY system, has been drastically reduced. The library system has not
received enough gifts according to Roy. These gifts, given by
foundations, businessmen, alumni, etc., have been limited due to a lack
of staff members, which is essential to ensuring increasing donations.
The most crippling of all cuts has been the loss of journals.
According to Roy, “It is imperative that the libraries be able to restore

this service.” He added, “Both the Health Sciences and Science and
Engineering Library must update their periodical collection by
restoring back journal issues lost due to cuts.” If this is not done, he
said, “The Health Science and Engineering students will not be able to
do proper research in their prospective fields of study.”
'One of the top fifty’
What is the total effect of the plagued library budget? Even though
UGL Head Librarian Yoram Szekely called “this University’s system as
definitely one of the top fifty in the nation” and Roy stated ‘The
present system will survive,” Roy believes “a University of this size
deserves better.” This can only be done, claimed Roy, “if DOB
becomes more sensitive to our needs, and faculty and students show
more interest in our struggle.”
A library is an integral part of any University structure. If the
present library system continues to deteriorate due to the enromous
budget cuts that libraries have had to absorb, Roy said, “we’ll lose both
valuable students anil faculty. We have not been able to complete our
mission of providing resources to support the studies, instruction or
research of students and staff at the University.” Research is a
continuing process, and Roy said, “If we don’t continuously expand,
and the materials are not available here, why should people stay here?”
In the midst of these economic shortcomings, the University
library system is searching for a new director. Roy feels that the new
director will face numerous problems including those of staff cuts,
material acquisition and campus shifting. “An individual with strong
leadership qualities and dedication is needed to assume this task,”
commented Roy. “There should be no internal problems caused by a
change in Directors, since most of the moves are done by unit heads
and the system is trying to maintain a form of continuity in appointing
a new leader.” ,

�State regulations require bridges to be
built over trout streams at construction
sites to prevent mud and sludge from
damaging the stream's environment.
NFG claimed there are only two trout
streams in the total twenty thousand
acre construction area. FEDUP has

illustrated a discrepancy concerning the
definition of a trout stream. Ross Scott,
a landowner in Alleghany County
maintains that NFG construction will
damage many trout streams and has
proof that bridges are not being built to

proceedings
by its
owner, law student Ross Scott.
Scott received a phone call concerning
the whereabouts of the briefcase from an
Ellicott resident after an article describing
the importance of the cases contents
appeared on the front page of The
Spectrum Monday.
NFG has requested permission from
FPC to construct and operate massive
underground gas storage facilities in
Alleghany County, N.Y. and Pottery
County, Pennsylvania. The project, which
will cost over $70 million and affect up to
20,000 acres of farm land, is being opposed
by a group of landowners from the
affected area who call themselves Fair
Environmental Deals for United People
(FEDUP). “FEDUP’s position is that an
environmental
statement
is
impact
required,” according to Scott.
Public must contest
The National Environmental Policy Act
of 1969 states, “Government agencies shall
prepare an impact statement for every
major federal action that significantly
affects the quality of the human
environment.”
According to farmer
members of FEDUP, Lester Hess and
Arthur Roeske, an impact statement is
necessary because access roads and
pipelines will have a “serious impact on
agriculture.”
However, many agencies don’t prepare
an impact statement “if they can get away
with it,” Scott claims. He feels it is the
duty of the public to contest any action
which seriously harms the environment
because “if no one contests, the agencies
avoid preparing a statement.”
State regulations mandate that access
roads leading to and from the well sites

should be no more than twelve feet in
diameter. FEDUP claims that NFG has
created access roads which “are up to fifty
feet in diameter.” Moreover, well sites and
rigs have been built in Alleghany and
Potter Counties which are in direct
violation of the law because FPC has not
NFG’s request to begin
approved
construction.
Charges NFG violations
FPC has denied NFG the permission to
begin construction of the storage facility
pending a complaint by FEDUP. The
complaint, on file with the FPC as of
September 2, charges that NFG requested
the commission to “dismiss the application
because the commission lacked jurisdiction
over its proposed activities because the
activities were unrelated to development of
the (storage facility) and were part of its
“normal maintenance program.”
However, FEDUP claims that the new
construction was not part of the
maintenance program and that it is actually
part of the storage project.
FEDUP also charges that NFG began
the proposed construction on 13 well sites,
constructed access roads, cleared well sites
and commenced drilling activities without
conducting environmental studies or
complying
with
the
environmental
guidelines of the commission.
The final decision as to whether or not
NFG can pursue construction of the
storage facility is pending consideration by
FPC. According to an FPC attorney, David
Huard, “NFG’s answer to FEDUFs
complaint was hied Tuesday, and we
haven’t had time to determine whether or
not a hearing will be held.”
Scott, who claims FPC is a hostile
agency against FEDUP because of financial
considerations, said, “FPC staff attorney,
Jane Drennan, has indicated to me that a
hearing will probably be in order within a
week or two.” Scott claims that FPC
doesn’t like to handle environmental
impact statements because “it involves a
great amount of time and money.”

Mandates of the Environmental Policy
Act of 1969 state that access roads
leading to construction sites should
measure no more than twelve feet
across. The top photo illustrates an
access road leading to a well site
pictured in the distant background.
According to Scott, this road it about
fifty feet wide. The greater distance a
road continues from the site, the shorter
the width should be. The center photo

portrays the same road about a mile
from the site, but the width only
decreases by about 10-20 fact. The
bottom photo, picturing the actual site,
shows NFG construction activity before
permission for construction was granted
from FPC. Scott also indicated that a
typical well site should measure about
200 feet in diameter and that this site
extends 200-300 feet in excess.

Evening,

On Buffalo’s east side resides a man who is seemingly ordinary.
Married, a father of five sons, and a local taxicab driver, what makes
this man so different from you and I? Would you agree that his
candidacy for the office of U.S. President in 1976 would be a
distinguishing factor? If so, then we must wonder why he ran and what
he has experienced as a result of his candidacy for the nation’s highest
office. The answer to these and other questions will provide insight
into the man, the election system as it is today, and interestingly
enough, the Federal Bureau of Investigation’s (FBI) activity.
When asked why he wanted to run for President, Reverend
Jackson said, “1 felt it was time that the average person got into
politics,” and get into politics he did. His platform was opposed to
busing for the achievement of forced integration. He also took a stand
against gun control, but countered by stating that he was for law and
order.
An audit of the internal Revenue Service (IRS), an examination of
firms that discriminated against minorities but still took tax
deductions, the institution of a federal loan program, and the securing
of jobs for the poor were Jackson’s answers to the economic problems
of the country. The requirement that you must be a lawyer for some
governmental jobs is unconstitutional, according to Jackson. His intent
was to change these practices.

Reverend Jackson was finished before he started. “Almost all

states require a fee, and sometimes signatures, before the candidate’s
name can be placed on the ballot,” stated Jackson. This procedure he
claims, really boils down to a poll tax which bars poor people from
seeking public office, and thus, is a violation of their civil rights. As a
result. Reverend Jackson sought to run only in primaries in states
which did not requite fees, such as Arizona.
During this time, Rev. Jackson submitted an application for

Federal Matching Funds. When the Federal Election Commission
received his application, they informed Jackson that because an
improper amount of his funds were in cash, he would not qualify. On
April S, 1976 the file on the matter was transferred to the United
States Attorney in Buffalo. This transfer was illegal, contended
Jackson. Subsequent investigation forced Reverend Jackson to
terminate his candidacy. He was indicted in September, 1977 with no

To the Editor:

-Will Rogers
"All I knowis what / read in the papers.
This nation has a tendency to take the news for granted.
Without being heavily conscious of it, Americans fall into
long lapses, assuming all the world is being printed or
broadcast and all that's needed is to pick up a newspaper or
pull a cabinet knob.
We place a lot of faith in our media. Walter Cronkite
remains the most trusted man in American. Since Watergate,
journalists have become folk heroes of sorts and students are
jamming journalism schools to hitch a ride with this new
found valor. Getting and printing the news has gained an
unnatural mystique.
We see a danger in this. And we see an immediate danger
in the threat to the Courier-Express being posed by the
larger local paper, the Buffalo Evening News. This city needs
competing dailies; any city does. It is, in the words of the
News Managing Editor, “a blessing," and one we cannot
afford to lose.
Competition, for all its ruthlessness and commercialism,
remains the watchdog for all journalists. The News and the
Courier correct each other, argue with each other, beat on
each other, but most importantly, enhance each other. They
are better papers for it.
When the direct competition between the two begins on
Sunday, November 16, the reading public will realize an
immediate improvement as the papers strive to outduel each
other. I# the Courier goes under, the public will suffer an
irrevocable loss.
We can't urge Buffalo to support the Courier. All we can
hope for is to point out the consequences if it doesn't.
Cronkite himself once said. "The news is what I say it is,"
and he wasn't far off.
So be careful, Buffalo. You are a city of Will Rogers. All
you know is what you read in the papers. If the papers
become The Paper, the' news will become less and less like

Football? At this University?
This University was supposed to be known for its radical
politics, for the new generation of English professors and
cpltists and for the old generation of engineers who wrote
books and became administrators. But football? Yes, it is
here, the new age. Well, not quite, but coming out to Rotary
Field at 1:30 p.m. tomorrow to see the Buffalo Bulls play
their first football game since 1970 means more than simply
cheering on a collegiate sporting event.
This isn't Ann Arbor. There will be no established
superstars on the field tomorrow. The grunting and sweating
and crunching to be heard will come from students who go
to class, copy notes, fall asleep during lectures and complain
about the location of the Amherst Campus, just as all the
other intelligent people here do. In other words, this football
team is a baby, a monster of sorts.
Students, faculty and administrators should turn out en
masse to witness the birth of that baby tomorrow. Births are
always causes for celebration. Instead of settling down with
the beer and reefer to watch national collegiate football on
television, bring alt the action home. Bring it ail home. The
Bulls might even win.

Editor-in-Chief

We were very disappointed upon reading
Monday’s issue of The Spectrum. We expect to read
about University-related news, and not about the
New York Yankees. Granted, there are many Yankee
fans at U.B., but The Spectrum is not the place for a
two-page article about them. The front page should
certainly be reserved for more relevant information
concerning the University. 1 suggest that if Mr. Reiss
wishes to continue to write about the'Yankees, he
offer his services to other publications such as The
New York Times or The Sporting News, not The

Spectrum.
Not only was this article a waste of valuable

�UUAB mishandle
To the Editor:
UUAB activities are supported by mandatory
student fees. Because of this, mismanagement is a
particularly serious affair. Mismanagement coupled
with rudeness is inexcusable. What makes these
remarks necessary is the handling of the October 2
JeanLuc Ponty concert.
1. The concert was misadvertised as beginning at
six pan., when in fact it was scheduled for eight, v
2. Although the concert was scheduled to begin
at eight, the doors did not open until sometime
between 8: IS and 8:30. It is impossible for us to tell
exactly when as we had been standing behind a
couple thousand othe; people since 7:30 in therain.
3. At approximately 8:50 we finally reached the
door only to discover that the concert bad been
started already. While .we were waiting (fuming} in
the rain because the doors were opened late, we
missed about IS minutes of music. This is
inexcusable. It was inconsiderate of both ourselves
and the others who had also been waiting. It is
furthermore a failure to recognize the ticket is a
contract. The buyer pays so much money in
exchange for certain services (here music). The buyer
has a legal right to the entirety of those servlets
(presuming he/she arrives on time).
4. If all of this was not bad enough, people
already inside were returning to the door
complaining that there were no more places to sit.
, .J
The concert had been oversold.
5. We were fed up and asked to have our money
bimk. We were toh) we had to wait for Stew Fish.
Mr. Fish arrived, agreed to refund our money, took
our tickets, and headed off
God knows where.
Since the scene at the door was semi-chaotic, I told
Mr. Fish 1 would come with him to receive the
money. At that point he got very upset and told us
that we were never to come to another concert that
“bur hind” were not wanted, and so on. Mr. Fish

sad example of the old. ad ate that power corrupts.
Fortunately he has only a little power and is only

capable of making himaelf appear petty and foolish.
Nonetheless, such people should not be managing
mandatory student fees in any capacity.
6. It was fortunate that I did accompany Mr.
Fish as it turned out that the man handling the
money refused to give us our money back. Mr. Fish
attempted to give me back our tickets, telling us to
hawk them. 1 once more told him that we desired a
refund god that he had agreed. If anyone was to
hawk the tickets, he should. He was able to do this
quite easily, as the man handling the money directed
the next two ticket buyers to Mr. Fish. Mr. Fish then
gave me the cash. We have no idea what happened to
the two buyers who were soon to learn of the seating
problem.

7. Rather than ending an unpfeasant incident at
that point. Mr. Fish expounded at length on how we
were never to buy tickets for another concert, bow it
Was none of our business that the concert began
before all the people waiting for over an hour in the
rain had been able to enter the doors, etc. Mr. Fish
then had a policeman escort us from the building.
Mistakes happen. We do not mean to imply that
the miaa&lt;lvcrtisi|ig, the problem with the doors, and
the premature, starting of the concert were
intentional efforts to irritate anyone. Still, they are
inconsiderate and can be easily avoided in the future
by better planning and checking. On the other hand,
Mr. Fish’s conduct cannot be excused. “Our kind”
go to concerts for entertainment and enioyment. If
UUAB’s breach of contract makes that impossible,
then it is our business. Mr. Fish apparently has no
idea of why people buy concert tickets. He clearly
has no idea of what is required of those who would
hold responsible positions in student activities.

Punk masses
Tp the Editor:
The steady decline in attendance of young
people at Catholic masses over the last few years has
been the cause of dismay to many prominent
theologians. The problem here, which hasn’t been
recognized by moat pillars of the Catholic faith is

that “the times they are a-changin’,” in the words of
one popular Jew.
The late sixties marked the appeasement by thfe
powers that be of the Bohemian faction through the
institution of “folk masses.” My proposal, humble as
it is, is that the church offer a modern counterpart

|o account for. changes in attitudes and tastes. “Funk
Masses” would provide a suitable direction for the
church to take. This idea can easily be linked to the
progressive concept of Saturday night masses which
would allow for punk celebrants to experience “last
call” at CBGB’s immediately before attending
religious services. “The crowd ordinarily lost to
Sunday afternoon hangovers would be considerably
reduced, should that idea be instituted,” asserts

Sister Patti Smith, a member of the Ramonian Order

crowd's enjoyment of Ponty
bassist I've seen since Stanley Clarke. Even his

Not since Jean-Luc Ponty appeared at Mulligan's
Night Club in 1974 hit tour itinerary included a
Buffalo date. The response of the packed house at
Clark Gym Sunday night proved not only that it was
well worth the wait, but alto that Ponty is, indeed,
.
the number one fiddle.
The atmosphere was saturated with rain, the
gymnasium was dry with hect and smoke, and the
concert was late in starting. So what else is new? An
eight o'clock starting time, and, after a warm-up act
and sardine-like seating arrangements,

Ponty finally

hit the stage at ten to ten. Par usual.
Trying to forget the previous two hour waste, I
anxiously awaited the newest edition of the JLP
band. The lights glowed, the audience roared, and
the performers began with a new piece, "The
Trans Love Express" preceded by the "Overture"
prelude.

a new six piece band. Daryl
Stuermer and Allan Zavod, on guitars and keytjpards
respectively, are the only Ponty picks kept from trie
last band. Ralphe Armstrong, a former Mahavishnu
enlistee with Ponty,, bellowed out the funky bass,
and a drummer and rhythm guitarist rounded out
the band.
Onstage was

The second number, "Mirage," off the new disc.
Enigmatic Ocean, contained a synthesizer solo by
Zavod. A 17-minutes rendition of "The Struggle of
the Turtle to the Sea," also off the new album, gave
each member a solo spot. Particular applause was
given to Ralphe Armstrong for his bass solo.
Armstrong has a fine, funky sound, but not
overpowering. He's probably the most promising

Wandering voyages

A pair of songs off Imaginary Voyage followed.
"Wandering on the Milky Way," a ten-minute violin
solo, was one of the highlights of the evening. Ponty
put various pedals and special effects to use, and he
commanded the audience throughout this amazing
one man show. "The Gardens of Babylon" had an
excellent Daryl Stuermer guitar spot.
The final song, "Enigmatic Ocean," consisted of
four distinct pieces. Ponty joined Zavod on keys at
first, but then switched back to violin. Rapidfire
licks from the guitars to Ponty to Zavod blazed with
speed, yet each contained himself within the song
structure.

The crowd roared at the close, and Ponty was
vocally dragged back twice for encores. The first,
"New Country," off Imaginary Voyage, whipped the
audience into a hoedown and hustle mood. It's not
too often that fans dance to jazz.

The final encore, "Fight for Life," was off the
album where it all began. Upon the Wings ofMusic.
Ponty's set lasted an ample hour and a half. In fact,
if it had gone longer, my back surely would have
broken from the "luxurious" floor seating
arrangements.

Ponty, with his rainbow of violins, cooked, but
he never left his band behind. They all had the
ability and could not be out-done. The crowd
approved and

UUAB had a success on its hands.

In this Enigmatic Ocean of jazz-rock orchestras,
Jean-Luc Ponty and company have, indeed, taken
the Imaginary Voyage to the top, and are riding high
Upon the Wings of Music.

Ponty finds freedom in not being categorized
by John Hunt
Special to the Spectrum

The following is a condensed
version of an interviewconducted
by John H. Hunt for the Buffalo
Jazz Report and WBFO reprinted
by permission of the Buffalo Jazz
Report. The full interview, that
includes a conversation regarding
Frank Zappa and Ponty's use of
electrified violins, can be found in
the October issue of the Buffalo
Jazz Report
Jean-Luc Ponty's first Atlantic
Recording as a leader had barely
been in existence a week when he
was booked into Mulligan's night
club in Buffalo to a crowd of a
couple of hundred people in
1975. In the two years since then
things have changed greatly for
the-34 year old violinist. He has
won Downbeat magazine's critics'
and readers' polls as the top jazz
violinist and plays to sellout
audiences in concert halls over the
world. His recent Atlantic album
Imaginary Voyage sold more than
200,000 copies and Ponty
,

returned to Buffalo with all of
this success under his belt Sunday
October 2 at 8 p.m. in Clark Gym.
Ponty was born in the small
Normandy town of Avranches in
1942 into a family where both
mother and father were classically
trained musicians. He began
taking violin lessons at age five. At
age 17 he was awarded first prize
by the Conservatoire National
Superieur and then spent three
years
with the Lamoureux
Orchestra.
While maintaining his classical
lessons, the active Paris jazz scene
attracted Ponty's attention and
soon he was jamming regularly
with jazz musicians on clarinet
and violin. Those early jam
sessions in Paris were the
foundation which eventually led
to association with Frank Zappa,
Stephane
John McLaughlin,
Grappelli, Elton John and George
Duke. In a recent interview with
WBFO, he explained that despite
his numerous collaborations with
jazz musicians and winning jazz
awards, he does not consider

himself a jazz musician anymore.
PONTY: I left the jazz world a
few years ago, I always hated
Chicago but once I really was a
pure classical musician, then I was
a pure jazz musician and I have
suffered of that prejudice in the
jazz world. The king instruments
were the wind instruments like
sax and trumpet and I was being
considered to play an odd
instrument. That's not the reason
why I moved to jazz/rock but I
had much more affinity with
progressive rock musicians who
were dealing with respect and
curiosity
with
electric
instruments. I was much more
respected and admitted in their
ranks than by jazz musicians. That
kind of prejudice was always
pretty stupid to me. That's why
now I feel perfectly at ease
because I'm in no category at all
..
and I'm being accepted by
more and more people.
HUNT: How do you feel about
consistently being at the top of
the polls for jazz violin, then?
PONTY; I am voted (highly) in
.

many polls and I don't attach too

much attention to it. Maybe I will
when I disappear from those polls
(laughter). When people tell me,
"Oh, you're again first this year in
Downbeat." I would be a
hypocrite to say I'm not flattered.
It's great to hear you're first
somewhere. What really pleases

me was to incorporate the three

HUNT: Stephane Grappelli is also

Spectrum Arts Staff

The Studio Arena Theater is currently presenting
Sunset, a Broadway bound musical, on its downtown
stage. Despite all the very respectable talent involved with
this production, and some of the Studio's most recent
artistic accomplishments. Sunset was quite disappointing.
Sunset deals with a theme that is found in several
other current dramas: a "modern" look at the world of
show biz. This modern look is only a bit more hard edged
and in-depth than the point of view of frothy backstage
shows of the past, such as Forty-Second Street. The
emphasis of the old shows was on understudies becoming
stars, lavish night dubs and goldiggers getting sugar
daddies. The new shows present the "universal" goals of
the seventies; intense personal relationships, being mellow
and the everpopular idea that show people are getting
better sex and drugs than we mortals even dream of.
What A Chorus Line did for dancers and New York,
New York did for the big bands. Sunset attempts to do for
the people in the Los Angeles recording game.
Comic book image
The play takes place on Sunset Strip, home of the
gold album, platinum selling, hit-with-a-bullet-in-it music
business. The characters that populate this world are a
comic book image of therock industry.
There is an ever-present producer with a voice like an
AM radio disc jockey. Every sentence has three
exclamation points, at least. Sunset City Sound Studios
("Oh, Mary," says the producer, "listen to those S'slll")
has the biggest names of the rock industry in its stables.
Randy Gold is this week's most colossal rock star in the
history of the world. Crystal Newcomb is a tough little
Linda Rondstadt-oid who boozes from a silver hip flask.
Into this whirlwind steps Lila Haltiday. Lila is a
middle-aged actress who played "war brides, WAC's, and
waife on the run" in all those 1940's movie musicals and is
now making a comeback.
This homage to movies of the past is very
characteristic of the new backstage musical. All the
auditioning dancers of A Chorus Line wanted to be Fred
Astaires and Ginger Rogers, while New York, New York
set in the forties and fifties, is one huge glorious nostalgia
trip.

Love conquers all
How does this star of bygone days who loved the

magic of the old Hollywood fit in with the rock world?
Not too well at first, since recording is a fast and furiods
occupation. But she captures the heart of rock and roll,
Randy Gold shows Crystal that there is no need for being
tough when one can be nice. Love conquers all, and
everybody acquires a born-again outlook on life. Vipee.
The simplification of the script may sound silly, but it
is in keeping with the utter ridiculousness of the play.
Aside from the above, the play includes a romance
consisting of Lila and Randy waltzing and a cocaine
addiction with all the subtlety and accuracy.of Reefer
Madness.
The score, composed by Gary William Friedman with
lyrics by Will Holt (the team that created the wonderful
The Me Nobody Knows), could never begin to work for
this play. There is no way that their music, best described
as hard pop, could pass for rock, punk, or even the disco
sounds that a major studio would produce today.
One song. Retreat, sung by Jamie Bradbury, a
character who was a folk-rock idol of the sixties, contains
the lyrics;

career. Due to the poor script, Lila Halliday is somewhat
uninteresting, and Alexis Smith could net get beyond that
hurdle.
fm:
All in all. Sunset is as offensive (or inoffensive) at a
made-for-television movie that has a made-for-television
score.
Sunset runs at the Studio Arena through October 29.

"I see violence red. / turn my head,
see trouble black, I turn my back,
see danger in the street, retreat.

/

"

/

/

Aside from the negative artistic value those lyrics
have, the philosophy presented in them is frightening. It is
insulting to believe that this is the healthy attitude that
saves the characters from ruin and despair.

The Studio Arena Theatre, through the Student
Association (SA), is selling season subscriptions to |his
year's productions. $18.00 will buy tickets to all seven
plays that the Studio wilt present this year. Productions
include the debuts of three plays (Sunset Semmelweiss, a
play by Howard Sackler, author of The Great White Hope,
and Sherlock Holmes, A Further Adventure ), two of
Broadway's current hits (Same Time. Next Year and the
Pulitzer Prize Winning Shadow Box), a musical revival
(George Gershwin's S"Wonderful, formerly entitled Funny
Face), and a soon-to-be announced play that will open
next spring in the new Studio Arena Theater. Besides
seeing the plays for about $2.50 each, subscribers receive
discounts at some of the better city restaurants, and are
entitled to a generous ticket exchange policy. Students
may purchase subscriptions at the Squire Hall Box Office
vtftile they are still available. This will be an eventful
season for the Studio.
P.S.
A friend of mine noticed that all of the plays
by
the Studio began with the letter S. As the
announced
record producers in Sunset said, "Oh, Mary

Imaginative choregraphy
While dealing with the show’s music, commendation
must be given to the women who played the session
singers. Any unashamed back-up singer freak, I am one,
will appreciate their work.
What makes the production bearable and gives it
energy is the direction of Tommy Tune. This is Tune's
second major directorial accomplishment, and like The
Club, his first off-Broadway hit. Sunset has endless energy
and imaginative choreographic work. The opening scene is
a spectacular achievement. Tune makes the small cast seem
like an army of singers and dancers ready to tear the roof
down with their vocal chords and tapshoes.
Regretably, Alexis Smith, a personal favorite of mine,
did a satisfactory job as Lila Halliday. Satisfactory is
regretable in this case, because Smith has done some
dazzling stage and screen work during her illustrious

�'As You Like It'is Stratford's best this season
by Michael Wing
Spectrum Arts Staff

The

two

late-season

productions

of Shakespeare's
great comedies. As You Like it
and Much Ado About Nothing, at
the Stratford (Ont.) Shakespeare
Festival invite comparison. The
former, directed by Robin Phillips
and starring Maggie Smith, has
been giyen a very distinct and in
limiting
some
respects
interpretation; while the latter,
by
Marigold
directed
Charlesworth and starring Alan
Scarfe and Martha Henry, is
presented more or less straight.
Nevertheless, the As You Like It
is first-rate and the Much Ado
flat. Perhaps there is really no
such thing as "doing Shakespeare
&lt;

straight."
In Much Ado, the production
is competent in most respects, yet
the play never fully comes to life.
There is no guiding notion about

what it is supposed to make the
audience think and feel. Director
Charlesworth seems simply to
have handed the actors their parts
and said "Go ahead." With an
established ensemble, the actors
might be able to develop an
interpretation on their own. But

unimaginative production like this
one blurs our vision of the play, as
if we were seeing it though the
wrong glasses. We see the general
outlines, but the foreground has
&lt;

no Crispness or clarity.

Lacks spontaneity
With so much dependent upon
the actors, weaknesses become
obvious. Most of the case, except
for Paul Batten's embarassing
Claudio, is quite adequate, with
Alan Scarfe's Benedick clearly the
stand-out performance.
But

limitations,
Henry's
unfortunately, are fatal to her
protrayal of Beatrice. She never
really engages with other actors
onstage or with the audience,
always remaining controlled and
self-absorbed (and apparently
pained, no matter what role she is
playing).
When the part is right (e.g.,
Isabelle in Phillips' Measure for
Measure or Lady Anne in Richard
III), her standard routines can be
very effective, but here they make
no sense. One never for a moment

feels that she is in love with
Benedick, and her witty banter
completely lacks spontaneity. The
lines about how merry Beatrice is
are wasted; we have never seen the
character they describe. Her
self-containment throws scenes
askew, keeps them from clicking.
At the end, when Beatrice and
Benedick are engaging in their
final battle of wit, Martha Henry
hardly even looks at Alan Scarfe;
she looks instead at Benedick's
unimportant letter. Anything to
avoid direct engagement.
In contrast, Maggie Smith's
performance as Rosalind in /4s
You Like It is the most
convincing stage presentation of
being in love I have ever seen. She
is even better than I had expected
her to be, and she seemed in
advance an ideal Rosalind. She
could have gotten away with
playing this part on style alone.
The high ironic detachment she
has
perfected
as an acting
technique fits splendidly most of
Rosalind's
behavior
when
disguised as “Ganymede."
But, intead of falling back on
her acting tools, on routines she

could do in her sleep, Maggie
Smith has gotten inside the
character, has thought through
Rosalind's inner life so completely
that here (Smith's) patented
double-takes of aesthetic shock
are hardly necessary. This role
presented
must
have
a
considerable temptation to her,
knowing as she must that she
could produce a laugh on virtually
every line, and get nothing but
accolades for doing so. Instead,
she attempts something far more
difficult and pulls
it off

appearance and tone, suggests
so much as Watteau’s
famous painting “Pilgrimage to
Cythera," with its distancing, its
pastoral,
civilized
and
its
sentiment.
In this vision of the play, love
is somewhat more fragile than it is
in Shakespeare. Rosalind's direct

Hanging Loom'

Poetry magazine
irrelevant to life
Hanging Loose is among the most well-established poetry
magazines in Western New York. Over the years, it has abandoned

the unbound format for which it was originally named and hat
gradually improved in quality. The magazine is largely devoted to
discovering new poets. Operating with a large editorial staff, it it
able to give unsolicited manuscripts close attention. When the
editors discover a poet whom they like, they publish him
repeatedly. There is a special section on high school poetry.
Most of the poetry in Hanging Loose is written in a
conversational manner, with rhythms and a vocabulary very close to
those of speech. While I appreciate the friendly tone and admire the
attempt to make poetry more accessible, I feel this style has its
limitations. There is a basic timidness and so much fear of sounding
pompous that it is hard to say anything very important. There is so
much fear of dogmatism that few definite conclusions are drawn.
The poems communicate experience but do not really interpret it.
The magazine contains some lovely poems, but it is not a sort of
poetry that can help us in our lives.

�Records to choose ii

by Ron Weinstock
Spectrum Music

Staff

This will be the first in a series
lists of blues records that
would provide the foundation of a
good blues library. In this list, I
will be focusing on the classic
Chicago blues.
Generally, this
refers to a style of blues prevalent
m the fifties. The use of amplified
harmonica and
slide guitar
characterize much of this music
which is heavily infused with the
Mississippi Delta rural blues.
of

Muddy Waters (Chess)
Howlin' Wolf (Chets)
Sonny Boy Williamson (Chess)
Little Walter

(Chess)

These four albums were issued
last year by All, Platinum Records
of New Jersey who now own the

Chess catalog. I believe they have
been deleted but should be readily

available in cutout bins. They
contain many of the classics of
the style. The Muddy Waters disc
makes all of his recordings of the
past ten years sound weak. Listen
to how strong he sipgs and plays
slide guitar and compare to the
album he did with Johnny Winter.
The Wolf howls and Hubert
Sumlin plays some great guitar.
Little Walter simply shaped the
course of the harmonica by
cupping it 1 over a microphone and
thereby amplifying it. His set
contains some classics as does the
album by Rice Miller, the second
artist to record as Sonny Boy
Williamson. Miller was a wry
lyricist and singer and virtuoso
harmonica player who showed a
better sense of timing and shading
than Walter, if lacking Walter's
incredible saxophone like tone.
Genesis (Chets
English Import)
This is a series of four album
boxes with beautiful booklets
included. If you can find them,
they would be rated over the
-

American issues as they include a
wide variety of artists. Besides,
those listed above, Elmore James,
Jimmy Rogers, and Robert
Nighthawk are featured. Some
sides not available anywhere else
are included. Genesis 3 Sweet

recommended with great sides by

singing

"Smokestack
Lightning"
and
"Little Walter." The Jimmy
Rogers sides on Vol. 1 and 3 give
a sense, better than does Muddy,
of just how good Muddy's band
was in the early fifties.
Sonny Boy Williamson
(Blues Classics)

Vol. 1

John Lee Wiliamson recorded
before the second World War. A
very
influential
and
singer
songwriter,
Williamson's
recordings best anticipate the
music of Muddy, the Wolf, and
others. He was also the first major
harmonica player in the modern
blues and used it to fill between
vocal lines and also solo. His
popularity led Rice Miller to
adopt his name. These three
albums present a good crossection
of his work from early recordings
that were very country ish in
flavor to band blues including
guitar, piano, and
amplified
drums.
Elmore James (Trip)
Elmore is perhaps even more
famous than Muddy Waters as a
slide guitarist. Playing in both fast
and slow tempos, he sang with a
highly impassioned voice which
made good use of various vocal
techniques. Double album sets on
Trip provide some nice samples of
mostly later recordings. Two
albums on Kent (also United)
include his earlier recordings
including a tough band of Little
Johnny Jones on piano and J.T.
Brown on sax. Combining jump

like "Big Boss Man," "Honest I

by the Stones, Blues Project,
Elvis, and coutless others.

This set of three albums

blues with blistering slide and

featured on Vol. 3 doing much
traditionally based material. Big
Walter Horton accompanies on
most tracks with some excellent

players.

Matters of Modern Blues Vol. 1
Johnny Shines
Vol. 2 J.B. Hutto
Vol. 3 Eddie Taylor-Floyd
Jones
Vol. 4 Robert Nighthawk and
Houston Stackhouse (Testament)
These sides were recorded by
Pete Welding for much the same
purpose
as Charters did the
Vanguard series: to document the
blues band tradition. The Shines
album features him in a variety of
settings and shows him to be
Robert Johnson's best disciple
(over Muddy or Elmore). The
Hutto features a variety of
Chicago style blues with both
slide and standard guitar from
Hutto. His raw vocals are very
much in evidence as is Big Walter's
magnificent harmonica.’1 Volume
three features a side each from
Taylor and Jones, both doing
traditional material with more
fine Big Walter harmonica. Robert
Nighthawk is the featured artist
on Vol. 4 and the sides featuring
his use of slide guitar are brilliant
demonstrations of his skills.
Nighthawk combined a clean tone
with

that while Muddy was not making
very many good recordings during
the
sixties (due mostly to
production ideas of Chess Mitch

tried to psychedelize Muddy) his
band did a number of albums, of
which this was one, that were
quite good. The two Johnny
Young albums are solid Chicago
blues with Spann, Cotton and
rhythm join Young on the first
album. Half are nice band sides.
The other half features duets of
Young on mandolin and Spann on
piano. The Young album with Big
Walter features great harp playing
as well as a great band including
Jimmy Dawkins on lead guitar
and Lafayette Leake on piano.
Junior Walls, Hoodoo Man Blues
(Del mark); Blues Hit Big Town
(Del mark)

Hoodoo Man was one of the
first blues albums recorded as an
album and not merely a collection
of singles. With Buddy Guy on
guitar it is perhaps Junior's best
album with great harp and strong
vocals and tight handwork. Blues
Hit Big Town should be out soon
and includes his first recording for
the small States label. With such
persons as Muddy Waters, Elmd|e
James, and the Aces as his
sessionmen.

Your wallet is bound to be hurting as record prices keep getting
jacked up. All new releases, as well as many of the old ones, are now
being marked as series 7.98 (which will drop me at least $4.99 per
record at any local platter place on tale). Where can you retreat for
good ol' "cheapness"? (Don't misjudge the bargain bin because this is
the Golden Alternative.)

of the background scoop. There are some damned good
records in the cutout bins. Low prices do not necessarily indicate poor
sound quality. Most of them are still well preserved within their
jackets. The following are some highly recommended albums you
should check out which are well worth their ankle-high prices:
Marvin Gaye; Primarily an instrumental

soundtrack, this is like no other film soundtrack and can almost be
classified as a jazz record. With the addition of a few marvelous vocal
cuts by Qaye (including the frightening title song), each track smoothly
runs into each other, highlighted by streaming orchestration and funky
saxophone leads by Trevor Lawrence. Romantic and soulful.
Nice
The Nice: This was the band which originally boasted
Keith Emerson as a keyboardist. Not too far away from Emerson,
Lake, and Palmer, The Nice experimented a lot with arrangements and
were more classically oriented. This Nice album, my favorite, contains
a gorgeous version of Tim Hardin's Hang Onto a Dream.

Elton John: The Everyman's Cutout Album. This film
soundtrack comes from Elton's simply moving earlier days. There are a

albums by one of the most creatively brilliant acts around. Clever,
humorous lyrics, matched with faultless pop melodies combined with
complex technical highlights. The former contains the million-seller
"I'm Not in Love" and the latter contains the wonderful airline
stewardess paean, "I'm Mandy, Fly Me." You can't pass these two by.
Nightmares (and Other Tales From the Vinyl Jungle) the J. Ceils
Band: Rocks-off R &amp; B thunder which should be played at the level at
which jet planes take off. J. Ceils has been around a good, long time
and this is just one of the few worthwhile budget records of theirs. This
band never leaves you sitting down, as with the curtain-closer, "Gettin'
Out," an amazing skyrocket of a song.
Above are only some of the many cheapies that are available for
the student with the Financial Blues. There are others by Genesis, The
Who, The Edgar Winter Group, Roxy Music, and Ten Years After
which are just as worthwhile as those previously mentioned. This
should encourage some people to investigate these low-priced bargains
as a way out from the expensive record. Budget records can definitely
surprise you if you'd drop your blocs and buy one. You'll have a few
more bucks to blow at the bars this weekend.

RECORDS
Steely Dan, Aja (ABC)
It comes with great difficulty to review the new
Steely Dan record. It's similar to the phenomenon of
failure to describe your best friend because you
know him/her so well, I played Aja once and I didn't
want to put anything else on my turntable for the
rest of the day. Steely Dan is a hard act to follow.

accompaniments I have heard on record.

Each song on a Dan record is a mini-scenario,
often of sleazy characters and morals gone off the
straight track. Aja continues the tradition, but not as
bleak-visioned as on the last. The Royal Scam.
Among the Becker/Fagen lineup is a downtrodden,
pushed-out-of-love drunkard ("Black Cow"), an
egotistical jet-setter, who ironically parallels the
character of "Black Cow" (Deacon Blues"), a
hippity-hop ode to a struggling and optimistic actress
("Peg") and a strangely perverse, slick tune of
seduction ("I Got the News").
Denouement arrives with the high-swinging
antics of "Josie", which could be the Steely Dan
version of a Springsteen Jersey landscape.
Reminiscent of "Rose Darling", which has its
romantic, reptillian references, Josie is apparently
the Fox with the Box returning home and the boys
singing their praises with crooked humor:

Beginning as a solid six-man band, Dan has been
reduced to the songwriters, bassist Walter Becker and
keyboard man Donald Fagen, accompanied by a
gaggle of the most accomplished studio musicians
around. While these other players perform on many
an artist's recording gigs, Becker and Fagen have
always
been able to push them to more
extraordinary sessions, to the level of mystical
transformation.
The Dan have made each album a logical
progression from previous ones. Aj 'a is a extension of
the jazz flurries found in Katy Lied combined with
the rhythmic funk of The Royal Scam. The cuts,
especially on side cne, are quite long (one as long as

appear. The crowd melts as Honky Tonk Woman reappears. Oh, that's
live in Paris; maybe I'd squint a bit but melt, never. Will dagger O.D. on
geritol before he gets into something different? Love You Live is
similar to the eighth Thai joint; sure it's good but is it ready
neccessary? For Stones freaks the latest disc is always neccessary but
for the more hesitant (Better educated?) consumer, it just doesn't
make it.
How many more times are we gonna hear "Jumping Jack Flash"?
Between the Brothers Winter and that puke throated Frampton,
they're shovin this song up our asses. The same goes for "Sympathy
For the Devil." We've all seen Gimme Shelter so let's leave it at that.
Too bad the Stones don't. Instead we get a wishy washy love it or leave
it "Get off my Cloud". At least there is a difference in this
arrangement. Mick says the hell with the last verses and lets the boys
mope right through. At this point I guess the line got to.Keefs head
cause the guitar work gets better and better. "Hot Stuff" is just what it
says. "Star Star" ("Starfucker" to everyone but the censor board) ends
the side with Billy Preston getting fatter and fatter until he bursts onto
your platter.

But wait, side two sags from the start. 'Tumbling Dice" and
"Fingerprint File" don't have the balls they had in the studio. The
bonus is that dagger's lyrics are comprehensible if you are into
triteness. The lugubrium seeps on out with "You gotta move" and
"You Can't Always Get What You Want". This does bore me!
But wait again . . . The El Macomba Club in Toronto was the place
the night the Stones laid down the third side. "Mannish Boy" i*
only the tune that gets Mick's bulge up but really it's "I'm a Man" that
tricks Micky into thinking he has Yardbirds backing him up. This side
is the panacea; without it Love You Live is "totally" bogus. "Crackin
Up" has the same riffs as Wings (nee Micki and Sylvis) "Love is
Strange" except they're twice as crisp. I think it might be the
percussion section or is it Mick going "chucka chucka boom". "Little
Red Rooster" is a true seditive, everyone is more interested in Mick's
comments on the sexuality of the other Stones (Ronnie Wood is
accused of being gay, groupies take note.) The El Macombo madness
ends with the played out "Around and Around" but still this rendition
is the tour de force. Better than any other. Bill Deal and the Rondells

Hey there, salivatin' Stones fans that want to get really, bored?

but why the same tracks. Love You Live is good . . . good if you want
to show your grandchildren what Andy Warhol art work looked like.

ahead nod from the groupie cum rock journalist,
way back when initial breaks meant tacos or sirloin,
and interviews with a well tenderized oyster were
manna from heaven. And remember: we're talking
about rock and roll protected by a little raunch. No
vogue Moog, outta space allowed.
Open your eyes: Cheap Trick is no new comer
to the rollin thunder; many nights have reeked havoc
and then shriveled AH throughout the Chicago area.
The influences are evident; let us not forget that
Paris and London also adopted them as artists in
residence. The combination of atmospheric
experiences led to a disc for Epic. Penned simply
Cheap Trick, Cheap Trick, Cheap Trick, it proved a

tasteful gem that synthesized anglometallic neurosis
with milk and cookie harmonies. "Ballad of TV
Violence" and "Taxman, Mr, Thief" will remain
fixtures in the annals of classic pop. With the genetic
urge of rock and roll, filtering from germ to germ,
gew gaw to gewgaw, Cheap Trick proved that the
next thing to emerge from the b*ues capitol wasn't
it would still
going to be another sob story,
be the truth.

Hot on the hee(s of an American tour is the
release of In Color, the group's latest power surge,
but as the appellation might suggest the record does
not confuse pastel rainbows for palatability
it
devastates in a deceitful pallor of light humour. And
In Color perpetuates the American vitality of 45 air
waves with nunchuka precision in neat, neat, neat
songs like "Southern Girls" and "Clock Strikes
Ten". You want a soft shoulder? "I Want You To
Want Me" evokes the perfect love seat for John
Zander's appealing love, drunk arrows. No slouch
either, Rick Nelson's guitar word cracks the endless
boogie into sonic submission, resurrecting epitaphs
of accentuated tenderness. Besides, you can't knock
a guy that resembles Huntz Hall.

Their individual talents are rather
remarkable, yet instead of indulgence we get another
addition to the total group effort. Each has a voice,
and each voice portrays a different shading in the
musical weave, which is their delightful gift to these
doldrum days. The band is as melodic as Peter
Frampton, their vocal collections cover better
ground than Boston, but they promise never to be
irritably. That's not a cheap trick, that’s a fucking

the early sixties. Stephens was
still playing the music of his age,
the jez* of the late thirties, early
forties which was the swing
period. That's still the style he
plays but what's fantastic is that
he has so much fire and honesty
and being so faithful to his own
personality. I have seen alot of
older musicians trying to adapt to
changing times and failing and
losing their personality because of
that. Stephane is a great example
for all the young musicians in
theat respect. He is a true artist
and has been recognized as such
by the greatest musicians I've
known in the jazz or classical
world. Even in the rock world, a
group like Pink Floyd calls him to
record with them. It's amazing to
see how recognized he is by all
kinds of musicians. All this to say,
Grappelli told me to go on that
I had something special and that
he never heard anybody use the
violin like me in jazz. Which was
fantastic because at the same time
ha could have treated me as a
competitor. To encourage me to
go on proved how much of a true
artist he is.

Nevertheless some of those young
people say, "Why don't you play
more of the acoustic violin?" I
know where they're coming from
because I had to go through the
same prejudice myself. When I
started being interested in jazz
and I heard that Stuff Smith, a
black American, had used an
electric violin and at least was
amplifying his violin and my first
reaction when I heard this was,
"Oh vtfiat is this? Putting a
pick-up on a violin?" When I first
started playing jazz I realized I
couldn't fight the volume of
drums without amplification. I
realized I had to buy an amplifier
myself and put on a pick-up if I
wanted to be heard. But I found
the sound was realty ugly and
different from a classical violin.

Crawler (Epic)
Crawler. Its name suggests something very eerie
and primitive. It it billed at one of the hottest new
albums of the year. The record jacket displays a huge
venamout snake with a red and green forked tongue,
and four fangs. Clearly, this is not your average
album jacket Yet, this it not your average band.
They are Crawler, termed by oiir Madison Avenue
friends, “the new band that hat crawled up from
under a rock to every record store in the country." I
don't know if their notoriety came to swiftly, but if
the album is accepted as well at the tales campaign.
Crawler will be playing to sellout crowds at the Aud.
Crawler has crept itt yvay to almost every FM
station in Buffalo. "Q-FM" has given it away every
hour for the last two weeks. Record Theater had

Crawler.
What dost prevail it a steady beat that lasts the
entire length of the track. Basic at tanas, this beat
helps project a very original sound, a blues sound.
Not many “new** groups have gone this mute. Nor
have many groups become popuhr with the masses
this way. Since it is a departure from the'norm, meet
appeal is difficult to achieve. Climax Bluet Band and
the Atlanta Rhythm Section both had to release
their mor pop-oriented cuts. Yet, Crawler released
well done disco cut. “Stoned Cold Sober,” as their
debut tingle. Disco it the common theme in "One
Too Many Lovers" also. Two cuts that can fan
classified as pop-oriented tunes are "Without You
Babe," and "Never Loved a Woman." The rest of the
album carries a bluet label, best exemplified with the
cuts, "Sold on Down the Line" and "Pastime
Dreamer." to the Joe Cocker type, "You are my
Savior." It it an album for people who are looking
for a rock and roll alternative. And for these people,
it is excellent.

Key theme

Fassbinder gives us a sensitive, penetrating
portrayalof the relationship that develops between
Etnmi and Ali. This is an unlikely couple, and this
apparent mismatch may in itself hold some of our
attraction for them. Their individual loneliness has
brought them together, and, not too long after their
meeting, they are married.
However, Ali and Emmi are not free from
worries. Pressure, in the form of racial prejudice, is a
pervasive factor in their lives from the beginning of
their relationship. Although it is no new thing to Ali,
being shunned by neighbors and storekeepers shakes
Emmi’s faith. Her three children (she was a widow
Ali),
before marrying
consider her actions
disgraceful. All three of these children are married
and live elsewhere. There are indications that their
lives are not so rosy, but this is important only with
respect to their reaction and feelings about Emmi’s
marriage. Her son BrUno kicks in the screen of her

Through Ali, Fassbinder attempts to'fodus on
the problems of a forelgifcr in Germany today. Due
to a set of factors not fully explained, nervousness
(and the more severe maladies associated with
“nerves”) is endemic to foreigners. Fassbinder’s
allusions to these factors are too few, and leave one
grasping at straws. If the Director had dioit than
speculation on the causes of nervousness, it doesn’t
surface in the film.

The acting is more than adequate. Emmi, played
by Brigitte Mira is warm and engaging. Ali, played by
El Hedi Ben Salem, is intelligent and aeahphing,
although he plays a Morocaan not totally familiar

The camera-work in general was tasteful and
sometimes quite good. However, one scene was
particularly vexing In a scene in a hospital, towards
the end of the film, the negative was reversed, giving
a “mirrored” effect, where there deafly was no
mirror.

it
after 7 years:

the return of cheerleaders
by Diane LaVaifee
Staff Writer

Spectrum

I love cheerleaders, they show a lot of flesh.
Many males on this campus are awaiting the debut of
the cheerleaders this Saturday at the Bulls first

football game since 1970.
The squad has started up again through the
efforts of Cindy Meyer, a junior here, who had to
quit cheerleading because of a heavy workload in the
nursing program. The task of organizing the squad
has fallen on the shoulders of freshmen Doreen
Grzankowski and Gloria Beauen. Try-outs were held
with approximately twenty-five wolnen showing up.
Eight cheerleaders and two alternates were chosen
after being judged mostly on appearance, voice and
pep, and partly on ability to do splits, cartwheels,
jumps and originality of presentation. Since then,
there have been only a few practices, “whenever ten
girls are not in classes or working; hopefully, two to
three times a week,” as Doreen put it.
These first practices have been rather difficult.
Ten different cheerleaders tend to have ten different
styles and Doreen said, “Everyone favors their own
kind of cheering.” Saturday’s game is their first
chance to be a united cheering squad, with one
distinctive style.

Let’s go Buffalo*
Differences within the team, however, arc only a
minor problem. There are more serious obstacles
confronting the cheerleaders, the first of which is
their budget.
The cheerleaders receive two hundred dollars
from Student Mandatory Fees. At the present, the
women are wearing seven-year-old, unmatching
uniforms left over from the last cheerleading squad
in 1970. Two hundred dollars is only enough money
to buy new skirts. The “UB” letters cost ten dollars
each. Also needed are more megaphones, pom-poms,
raincoats and sweaters. To try to meet these
expenses, the cheerleaders will be selling blue and
gold “Let’s Go Buffalo” buttons which will be sold
at the game for fifty cents.
Another problem facing the cheerleaders is the
common stereotype associated with their profession.
Doreen noted, “Movies like The Pom-pom Girls’ and
The Cheerleaders’ don’t help anything.”
General student response to cheerleaders can be
broken down into three groups. First are typical
male responses, such as, “They’re very cute, I like it
when they jump up and down,” and “I like them,
especially with the little pom-poms on their shoes.”
Two of the football players replied, “Give us their
names and phone numbers and we’ll tell you what
we think about them.”

The second group were the female responses.
These included, “In general, people resent them.
They feel like they’re just doing it to get in good
with the football players. I’ve never met a
cheerleader I like” and “I think they should have
guy-cheerleaders at all female athletic events.” One
girl who was a cheerleader in high school said there
was “no purpose for them in college.”
Most females had mixed feelings. They felt it
was good if the cheerleaders could invoke crowd
enthusiasm but felt very negatively about the general
stereotypes of cheerleaders. “Rah, rah, rah,” one
said sarcastically.

times that were inconvenient to
students, yet refused to alter
those times. “At first we weren’t
notified about
even
the
meetings,” Peres said. “When they
finally did tell us, they were at
bad times for us. We asked them
to change them and were told that
would be too much trouble.”
Brunskill vehemently denied
maintaining
just
this,
the
oppositer “The meetings were
altered so that they would be at
the convenience of everybody. We
simply could not get students to
attend them.”

Partly functional
When asked whether he felt the
present cards were functional,

be issued and the date of birth is
to appear on them,
that the machinery to provide a
valid date of birth will have to be
developed. “We are part of the
community and therefore have a
responsibility to it to provide a
responsible date,” Brunskill said.
Snyder called the date of birth
an irrelevant piece of information
“unless it is controlled. If it is not
accurate and validated, it will not
be of any significance. 1 will insist
that the proof of age be done in a
controlled manner. What has

Snyder claimed, “They are not as

Brunskill was even less pleased any of these certificates when
with the cards saying, “They arc receiving University ID’s could

Brunskill
echoed
other validate birthdates and said no
University administrators’ claims such investigation is currently
that students’ date of birth was underway.

Then there were atypical responses. One male
said, “You’d think college students could find more
serious pursuits.” Another student response was,
“They help spark a team, but it’s nice to know
they’re doing something they like to do.” Several
female students had very positive reactions, too.
“Cheerleaders give a little color and spirit to the
game. They add to things, just like marching bands
at half-time.”
On top of all this ambivalence, the cheerleaders
themselves do not feel they have practiced
adequately for Saturday’s game. Both Gloria and
Doreen feel that they aren’t very prepared,
explaining, ’There just hasn’t been enough time.”

Despite adversities, the cheerleaders seem as
determined as ever. According to Dan Daniels,
business manager of the Sports Department,
“Cheerleaders are as much a part of the game as
anything. They’re very enthusiastic." Gloria said,
“Our attitudes are positive. We’re cheering not for
the fans, but for the team.’ 1 Doreen felt their main
concern is wanting the team to know “we’re behind
them.”
Bemie McKeever. one of the co-captains of the
Bulls team, said he definitely appreciates the
cheerleaders being there. He felt that the cheering
was more for the fans. ’The fans in turn psych the
players. The cheerleaders themselves can be yelling
and getting us psyched, but if they can get the fans
yelling, that’s ten thousand, not ten. They definitely
do the team and the school a service.”
Being a cheerleader is not always a cheery
thought, but the girls deserve credit for their energy
and initiative. Most are freshmen and still face the
usual problems of adapting |o college life. Five of
the girls are commuters, and almost all have outside
jobs. Yet they are still motivated to run back and
forth to Main Street campus, spending hours
practicing for the “big game,”
And that is something to cheer about

What follows is a detailed explanation of the harassment Jackson
daims he received, and is still receiving to this day. The event* are
numerous but Reverend Jackson believes that all are perpetrated by or
financed by the FBI.
In April, 1976, the FBI hired about 300 white informers and in
the following month hired about 200 Macks from certain black civil
rfehts organizations (names withheld upon request of Jackson). These
informers and others were and still are equipped with two-way radios
used to communicate over the old police band. Public and business
vehicles including independent cabs, delivery trucks, and tow trucks,
have been used in the surveillance of Reverend Jackson. Vehicles of
ttis nature contain radios, gasoline, and informers, all paid for by the
FBI and therefore the taxpayer. Reverend Jackson also says many
receive extra pay in exchange for investigation of

about
papers Monday
through ftriday. Saturday evening.

Mon specific examples of the investigat ion/harassmen t during its
peak are toW as fact by Rev. Jackson. Should Jackson call his
dispatcher on his radio and say he is going to the toilet, agents would
watch when he was going, and immediately rush in to take up all the
sooaa or to see if he stands up or sits down. Rev. Jackson’s garbage has
been inspected and even stolen.
On three different occasions two FBI agents came to the
Reverend’s house and tried to break in. Agents parked in front of the
Jackson household, slammed their doors and raced their engines. His
phone has been tapped and his mail opened. There was a walking patrol
stationed up and down Us street before the indictment. This was
heistsred by a bicycle and motorcycle patrol
Buffalo and State police would circle the block on which Reverend
Jackaon lived once every minute, he ays. While eating at a restaurant
he would be watched by policemen with a couple of radios on the
table. Similarly, “some nights they would have one of their agents with
hie ear against the aide of ray house listening,'’ Jackson stated.
Frequently when walking home, a prostitute would be let out of
ous of the taxicabs hired by the FBI. “When 1 reached that point, the
prostitute would offer herself to me for x number of dollars, or come
upon my porch, pull her dress up and offer herself for sexual activity,”
Jackson said. His Me has been threatened twice by agents withknives.

Nonetheless the general mood
at the Courier remains optimistic,
Even rivals at the News feel the
revamped Sunday Courier looks
more impressive than at anytime
in recent history. The staff is
apparently warming up for the
battle for Sundays, with a feeling
of stronger backing from the

“mistake” in going after Sundays.
“He’s got a lot of internal

that Buffet faces enormous initial
outlay* of cash to get the Sunday
edition off the ground. “It’s a bit
of a ridiculous move on his part.
But he’s got the money. He’s got a
long way to go mow. He could
have had a very profitable six-day
operation... Now he’s got to
make a new Saturday paper end a

“We’re geared up for a fight,”

Daddario’s kick gives
soccer Bulls key win
For a while, it looked like the soccer Bulls were having their usual
trouble in overtime. But with under three minutes remaining in the
second overtime, a Fredonia defender lost the ball in his own end, and
Bulls tri-captain George Daddario converted it into the winning goal.
The Bulls 3-2 victory over Fredonia Wednesday afternoon at
Rotary Field was their first in three overtime games. It also raised their
record to 4-2-1, while Fredonia dropped to 3-1.
Both teams had several opportunities to score in the overtime, but
couldn't. Finally, with time running out and darkness settling over
Rotary Field, Buffalo got their final chance. "I had my back to the
ball,” explained Daddario. “Luis Azcue got the ball and pushed it
forward. I turned and kicked it as hard as I could." Aided by the strung
wind, the ball floated into the net. to the right of the Blue Devil
goalie’s outstretched arms.
First half scoring

Fredonia opened the scoring with a “lucky” goal. Bulls' goalie
Mark Celeste had a momentary lapse, as he let the ball fall at his feel.
There was a scramble and Fredonia's Steve Yant/, popped it into the
net.

Bulls countown to kickoff
by Marshall Rosenthal
Special Featuret Editor
The countdown is one; just one
more day until the Big Game.
When the whistle blows, the
football Bulls will battle it out on
a Rotary Field that hasn’t seen a
football in seven years.
Enthusiasm is now at its peak
among players and coaches on the
staff. Leading the Bulls in the
1977 season will be captains Paul
DiMiero and Bernie McKeever.
“I’m flying, I’m really psyched,”
commented McKeever. Similar
sentiments have been expressed
by other members of the squad.
“Our boys are ready to hit fresh
bodies,” stated Buffalo Head
Coach Bill Dando.
There are approximately 65
team members who have worked
very hard in anticipation of this
landmark contest. According to
Dando, this year’s squad can be
categorized as a “quick, aggressive
unit.” The Bulls are confident of
their ability to put points on the
and
thwart

opponent’s offensive drive. Enter
Rpchester Institute of Technology

(RIT).

‘Haven’t done much offensively'
The Tigers of RIT have a
record of 0-3. Their consecutive
losses were handed to them by
(28-0),
Hobart
College
St
Lawrence (34-10) and Albany
State (13-3). The Tiger scoring
punch has been lacking, especially
since their defense has accounted

for six of their total 13 points.

An RIT official stated that the

Tigers
“haven’t done much
offensively, but we’re more of a
threat passing than rushing.” The
Tech official was alluding to the
fact that the Tigers’ net total

offensive output for 1977 totals a
meager 11 7 yards. On the ground,
they’ve been averaging 50 yards a
game while in the air they’ve
hauled in an additional 67 yards.

offensively will be fullback John

and quarterback Jim Denk who

goal ace Dick Craft has accounted
for the Tigers remaining seven
points with two field goals and
one extra point.
Tech has not been spectacular

either. Thus far,
they’ve given up an average of 343

However, Middle Guard

Big boys
The offense could explode at
any time under the direction of
quarterback Paul DiMiero. His
runningmates include Fullback
Gary Feltz and Halfback Mark
Gabryel. The Bulls have a terrific
quartet of hands in receivers Tony
Grisanti and Frank Price. The
offensive line, instrumental to the
Buffalo ground game, consists of
some

big “boys:” Gary Braun,

Tim Karnes, Tim Lafferty, Rich
Phillips, Jim Regar and Jim Vaux.
Under Dando, the Bulls intend to
utilize a host of different offenses
against RIT. “We’re ready,” said
Dando.
But so arc the Tigers. “We’ve
lost to some pretty tough teams

and we intend to play solid
defense,” commented the Tech
official. He added, “We intendon
using a combination of equal

Buffalo came back midway through the first half, when Daddario
was tripped in front of the Blue Devils' net, and the Bulls were awarded
a penalty shot. Buffalo's leading scorer, tri-captain Mark Karrer look
the shot and wound up with his seventh goal of the season, lying the
game.

Steve Feeney put Buffalo in front when he took a pass from
Ramsey Quartey and sent a difficult shot into the net at 35:56 of the
first half.

In the second half, Fredonia took the offensive and applied a great
deal of pressure on the Bulls’ goal. ‘The wind was a factor," said
Buffalo coach Sal Esposito. “But our guys did the same thing they did
against Cleveland State and Canisius
they tried to protect what they
-

had (a 2-1 lead].”
Halfbacks didn’t help

Esposito noted that the Bulls kept losing the ball at midfield. The
halfbacks, he said, were playing too deep to help on defense or to help
carry the ball out of the Bulls’ end. After a throw-in by Fredonia. the
ball trickled loose, and instead of a UB halfback being there to dear
the ball, Fredonia’$ J.J. Marrone came up with it and sent a high, long
shot into the goal to tie the game with about five minutes left in
regulation time, setting the stage for overtime.
For the overtime, Esposito instructed the Bulls to go hack to their
brand of play, and to get out of their defensive shell. ‘They decided to
play the way they should play,” he said, “and when they decide to
work together, it pays off.”
Esposito felt that the game meant a lot to the Bulls, since Fredonia
was their first Division ill opponent of the year. Rankings fur the tup
ten teams in New York are determined only by wins against teams in
one’s own division, so the Bulls are now undefeated in that category.
Tomorrow, the Bulls play at Buffalo State.

Buffalo Nine: sanctuary
and protest in retrospect
Editor's Note: Bruce Beyer is coming home October 19 or soon after.
He left Buffalo and the United States in March 1970, a political exile,
spent two years m Sweden and the last five in northern Ontario. He
returns to face federal charges stemming from his 11-day draft protest
sanctuary in a Buffalo Universalist Unitarian Church in 1968.
This is the second of a series of articles written by Beyer to be
published exclusively by The Spectrum. Very special thanks to WBFO
for making available the necessary recording equipment. The story was
transcribed from tape to paper by Elena Cacavas.

Evidence to be used against
NFG is reported as missing
A briefcase is missing. It is alleged that the
photographs it contains could send officers of the
beleagured National Fuel Gas Company (NFG) to
prison. The briefcase was stolen from the Student
Club at the EUicott complex Saturday night between
10 p.m. and I a.m.
According to the owner of the briefcase, law
student Ross Scott, thie briefcase contains the chief
evidence to be used against NFG in pending U.S.
Federal Power Commission (FPC) proceedings. The
proceedings have a complex background but could
lead to criminal charges being placed against NFG
'officials.
NFG has applied to the FPC for authority to
construct and operate a massive underground gas
storage facility in Allegany County, N.Y. and Potter
County, Pennsylvania. The project will affect from
five to twenty thousand acres and will cost over $70
million.

Environmental impact
This includes $9 million for 31 miles of new
pipeline in Pennsylvania which NFG claims is
necessary in order to make the storage facility work.
According to Scott, the project will involve drilling
over 70 gas wells, and building many miles of access
roads and pipelines which will honeycomb the five
to twenty thousand acres of farm and woodlands.
A group of farmers and landowners from the
affected area, collectively calling themselves Fair
Environmental Deals for United People (FEDUP),
have intervened in the FPC proceeding by opposing
the project. Scott, a co-chairman of the group said,
“FEDUP’s position is that an environmental impact
statement is required.”
NFG opposes that position, saying there will be
no environmental effect on the area. However,
Lester Hess and Arthur Roeske, farmer members of
FEDUP and landowners in the affected area,
testified at the FPC hearing that the gas wells, access
roads and pipelines will have a “serious impact” on
agriculture.
They
estimated that agricultural
productivity would be decreased by about 20

percent for the entire several thousand acre area.

Hess also testified that earlier construction by
NFG of a gas storage well on his farm resulted in a
“blow-out” which innundated several acres of corn
with hundreds of gallons of oil. A principal
complaint of the landowners is that NFG refuses to
pay for the damage they do. NFG has yet to pay
Hess for the damages incurred.
Testimony from an NFG consultant appears to
directly conflict with what Scott has been told by,
Allegany County Planning Director. The consultant,
Steven Ott, told the FPC that he had discussed the
proposed project and its environmental impact with
the Planning Director. Ott further testified that the
Planning Director had no objections or reservations
to the project.

When Scott spoke with the Planning Director,
the contradictions arose. The Director told Scott he
had never heard of the entire project before learning
of it in a newspaper article.

If rebuttal testimony by the Planning Director
establishes that Ott committed perjury, the future of
the entire project is in doubt, according to Scott.
Five years?
Scott said

the missing briefcase contained
photos showing environmental damage far in excess
of that claimed by NFG. The photos also show that
NFG has begun constructing the facility without
FPC approval, he added. According to Scott* this is a

violation of the Natural Gas Act and the National
Environmental Policy Act. The first violation, if
proven, carries a maximum punishment of five years
in prison for the corporate officers involved’.
The FPC hearing, which ran from September 12
through September 20, is presently recessed. It is
scheduled to resume October 18 at the Federal
Power Commission Office, 825 North Capitol Street,
N.E., Washington, D.C. For anyone interested in
attending, the Docket No. is CP76-492.
Needless to say, the missing briefcase is
important to the case against NFG. Anyone who has
information about its disappearance is urged to
contact Scott at 832-8422, 102 Heath Street.

Barry, Bruce Cline and I were
organizers for the Buffalo Draft
Resisters Union. Tom O’Connell,
Jim McGlen and Richard Rose
were all Vietnam veterans as was
Ray Malak.
Obviously,
the FBI knew
whom they wanted when they
charged through the doors of the
church. In one fell swoop they
picked off leadership from each of
Buffalo’s anti-war organizations.
A ten-minute court appearance
tied up $45 thousand in bail
money. One 20-minute arrest
changed
almost
the entire
direction of anti-war organizing in
the Buffalo area. The government
knew exactly what it was doing.
What started out as a peaceful,
non-violent demonstration against
the war and the Selective Service
System, ended
in a violent
fist-swinging melee. I maintain to
this day that this was precisely
what the government had in mind
when it sent thirty-two police
officers to arrest two draft
resisters. By provoking a violent
situation the government was
attempting to do two things: 1) to
show that the anti-war movement
was inherently violent; and 2) by
doing this, frightening off the

with the arrest oTthe Nine, our
plans changed. We were forced
from an offensive strategy to a
defensive one. All our time and
energy were taken up with our
defense. Our base of support in
the community was smashed by
our arrests.
With all our collective energies
and strengths, the nine of us tried
to turn our arrests into an
offensive against the war, racism,
'U.S. Imperialism, and on-going
political repression. We accepted

fund-raisers, benefits, teach-ins

the streets with our demands to
end the war against Vietnam and
black Americans. In the end it was
the courts who decided our fate.
The trial of the Buffalo Nine

the
government was trying to divide
the nine of us and also test the
waters to find out if they could
get a conviction on the others. To
be sure, there were political and
personal differences among the
nine, but there was no way that
we were going to allow the
government to divide us. Whether
they put one, two, three or four
of us on trial at the same time, we
were determined to fight our
frame-up with a unified effort.
The first Buffalo Nine trial
lasted nine days. It was opened
with the following statement from
the court, “This is not a political
trial. This is a simple case of
assault.” If ever there has been a
simple case of assault, this trial
was not one of them. At every
opportunity
the four of us
attempted to raise the issues of
the Vietnam War. We pointed our
fingers at the real war criminals,
Johnson,
Nixon,
Vance,
Westmoreland, MacNamera and
the ruling class of Washington and
on Wall Street. Our lawyers, Mike
Kennedy and Gerald Lefcourt, of
the National Emergencies Civil
Liberties Committee, stood by
our sides and defended us as if
they, too, were on trial. Not since
the trial of Martin Sostre had
Buffalo witnessed a trial of such
major political importance.

Amherst is one of the most rapidly growing areas in

the state and that recent growth projections show
the town will be the largest in Erie County within
five years.
Sharpe strongly emphasized that existing
roadways will be unable to accommodate recent
growth projections. “The Town of Amherst gives top
priority to the improvement and realignment of
Millersport Highway, the construction of the
Lockport Expressway, and the implementation of
inter-campus bikeways in order to improve the
capacity and safety for the many daily commuters in
the Amherst area.”

Waste of money?
Vice PrOident for Facilities Planning John
Telfer also claimed that the highway is necessary in
order to accommodate the heavy flow of commuter
traffic 'anticipated for the Amherst Campus in the
near future. Projections show that by 1980, the
University will have an enrollment of 27,000
students. Including faculty and staff, the total
campus population will be about 34,000 with an
estimated 16,000 vehicles expected to travel to and
from campus daily.
Manager of the Safety Department for the
American Automobile Association (AAA) Lois Pfohl
claimed that the present traffic conditions along
Millersport
Highway were very poor; "the
realignment of the highway is a step in the right
direction.”
Erie County Legislator Daniel Ward is against
the realignment of Millersport Highway, calling it is a
waste of the taxpayers’ money. “That has to be

around by rows of smiling

It is difficult to write about the passing of
Groucho (Julius Henry) Marx this past summer at
the age of eighty-six. After all, he had almost
reached “living legend" status before most of the
students at this University were even born.
Some hadn’t yet reached kindergarten in 1961
when his qufe show “You Bet Your Life.” which
iwyn on radio in the late forties and moved over to
television in the early fifties, ended its fourteen-year
run. However, through the combined “magic” of
film and television reruns, Groucho Marx remains
one of the best known and loved personalities among
college students today.
Characters such as Captain Jeffrey T. Spaulding,
Otis B. Driftwood, and Dr. Hugo Z. Hackenbush are
probably more popular today than in the 1930’s
when they starred in various Marx Brothers’ films.
The “secret word” and the duck have now become
known to a whole new generation of Groucho
fanatics. A century from now there will likely be
somebody different discovering Groucho, along with
his brothers, for the first time

Wien caught, the penalty will vary; first offenders may get off

When asked about student shoplifting another Super Duper
employee commented, “Anyone who is caught shoplifting should be
sent to jail. The bad thing about it is that it can ruin your life. You’ll
get a record that will stick with you forever.”
Another store in the University Plaza with a shoplifting problem is
Lee’s Drugs, whose manager did not speculate on students being the
main offenders. “We have a huge quota for shoplifting but al of this
time we can’t nail the numbers down on any one group,” said Ron
Tacklemen.
His attitude towards the largely student clientele is favorable. “As
long as they don’t give me or the store a hassle, everything is fine.
Students are paying customers and ate always treated like any other
customers,” explained Tacklemen.
In contrast with other businesses. Laco Bookstore on Main Street
does not find shoplifting a big problem. However, they do “lose” a few
books each year.
“The problem results when someone tries to sell us back books
that they have taken. It will be our book, but they won’t have any
proof of purchase,” said an employee.
One safeguard taken against stealing is the erection of shelves for
students to store their property. This way the management knows that
books students walk around with ate the ones they intend to buy.
Also, customers won’t be able to camouflage store books among with
their own.

�Four colleges up for
review of charter

Learning Center

The Colleges of Urban Studies, Cora P. Maloney, Women Studies
and Clifford Furnas will have their charters reviewed by the College
Chartering Committee this year.
This committee, composed of 12 voting members, and six
non-voting members, will decide whether each college has met the
qualifications set forth in the Reichart Prospectus for rechartering. The
Reichart Prospectus is the constitution for the . Colleges that sets the
rules about chartering and rechartering.
The twelve eligible voting members consist of six faculty members,
one representative of th4 Academic Affairs Council, two undergraduate
students, one graduate student, and two College Council members.
Non-votthg members are Vice President for Academic Affairs, Vice
President for Health Sciences, Vice President for Student Affairs, Dean
of Undergraduate Studies, Dean of the Colleges and Chairman of the
Faculty Senate.
This committee will review each charter and propose whether
adoption, revocation, or modification is warranted. Dean of the
Colleges Dr. Irving Spitzberg said, “Most colleges have their charters
renewed unless the quality of their cowries are poor, or there is a lack
of faculty interest." In recent years, only two colleges have had thencharters revoked, the College of Modern Education and the Social
Sciences College.
Spitzberg continued, “The rechartering process for the five
colleges started last April, and it was hoped the College Chartering
Committee would- be formed by September 1. Unfortunately, due to a
lack of faculty willing to take on the heavy load, the process has been
delayed.”
By May of 1978, the work of the Committee will be submitted to
President Ketter and the Colleges will know whether they have been
rechartered or not. Spitzberg hopes all five colleges will be rechartered
next May. “There are some weaknesses in some of the Colleges that
will have to be worked on during this term so that they will be able to
have their charters renewed,” he said.
The Prospectus (Constitution of the Colleges) comes up before the
Committee also this year. An evaluation will be presented to the
Faculty Senate no later than April. 1978.

To the Editor.

Who is this guy Bruce Beyer and what is so important
about the fact that he, like so many other draft resisters of
the Vietnam era, was forced to leave this country ps a
political exile because he didn't want to fight in a grossly
unjust mistake?

To begin with, Bruce Beyer has not been home in seven
and a half years. Home is Buffalo. Beyer wants desperately
to return here. The minute hs sets foot on the American side
of the Peace Bridge, however, he will probably be arrested
and thrown in jail to await releue on bail.
His probate trial will not be on charges of draft evasion;
those charges wore dropped in 1972. No, Bruce Beyer faces
state and federal bailjumping charges, both felony offenses.
They stem from his bailjumping conviction on charges of
assaulting a federal marshall (an FBI agent) and subsequent
sentencing to three years in jail.
If ever charges against anyone were by premeditation
false, these were. Beyer, along with Bruce Cline, was beaten
up by FBI agents as they arrested him while he stood on the
pulpit of the church in which he had taken sanctuary from
the draft Seven others were arrested with Beyer and Cline
that morning in August, 1968; not coincidentally, they were
all the leaders of the Buffalo anti-war movement at the time.
Their arrests were a calculated effort by the FBI to disrupt
that anti-war movement and it was severely successful.
This column is too short to recount the history of the
Vietnam war or to rationalize the movement against it. The
war was wrong in every respect and those who protested
against it and against everything it symbolized
imperialism, industrial profit, iracism and the neo-American
way of life, to begin

Vicious rumor
To the Editor:

In response to The Spectrum's front-page article
in the September 28 edition:
Last week the waters of Lake LaSalle arid
nearby bllicott Creek were reaching dangerous
proportions. Roads were closed, nearby homes were
flooded, and the Ellicott complex was literally
swamped with a dangerous water problem. You
stated that “there was a widespread fear that all
electricity in bllicott would be shut off as the
flooding had come within inches of electrical
transformers.” You also reported that this was a
groundless fear, that a spokesman for Campus
Security had dubbed the statement a “vicious

rumor.”
At 4:15 on Monday, September 26, we were
notified of the flood situation and the possible loss
of electricity as the EUicott Area Coordinators and
Head Residents relayed this “vicious rumor” to us.
They expressed the concern that since the power

might be shut dows* it would be to the student's
benefit that they tx; told of the problem. It was left
up to the discretion of the individual Resident
Advisors as to notifylhg their floors.
We therefore fees), riiat a gross injustice has been
done. The Spectrutft is accusing the Resident
Advisors of passing td0ng this “vicious rumor” to the
donn population, t* fact, we had merely been
relaying the information given to us by Custodial
Services and Campus Security.
In the future, it would be advisable if The

Why not rugby?
To the Editor:

This Saturday, October 1st, the U.B. Rugby
Club opens its first home game of the season against
Hobart College. To this date, the club consists of a
mere two or so dedicated players.
Taking into account:
a) Rugby is on an intercollegiate level of play,
similar to that of the newly formed football team,
b) the U.B. Rugby Club is representative of one
of the largest schools in the Eastern United States

(maybe the nation).
The .066% (20 players) of the school that is
involved is inexcusable.

Paranoia
To the Editor:
Let me state at the outset that the new UB ID
card is a worthless piece of plastic. The responsibility
for it rests someplace in the Office of Admissions
and Records. However, nobody there seems to be
willing to take credit for this fiasco. So, considering
how bad the ID card was, IRC decided to provide a
service to students who wanted Sheriffs ID cards.
What has resulted in plain, honest to god, paranoia!
Does anyone actually believe that the issuance
of a few Sheriffs cards is going to change the hrie
County Sheriffs Department into the CIA? Does
anyone believe that this will complete their all
inclusive files? When Sheriff Braun stated that they
throw out their old files after a few years I have no
reason not to believe him. Have you ever seen

100,000fingerprint*?! can’t even imagine that much
th0y going to do with those
paper. What dse
files, eat them afleCjtltey’ve memorized them!
Is The Spetlruhi calling half of Buffalo fools for
having Sheriffs . caWpi? Does The Spectrum realize
how widespread fingerprinting is in New York City
for municipal jobs?'Now I can see not being in love
with the idea but pfease don t stay up late worrying
about it. We are not, living in a futuristic, mechanized
state yet. When wif do, begin to worry! But as ol
now, the hrie County Sheriff's Department is not
that bright; I ven the CIA doesn’t appear to be as
smart as we have pn&amp;iously thought. Worrying about
a few Sheriff’s card* seems to me to be a paranoid
leap into fantasy land!!!

�WBFO dealing with youths
Drug abuse peaks during junior high school
years and juvenile crime account for half of the
nation’s crime rate, according to a Washington, D.C.
news release.
“Portrait of American Adolescence,” a five-part
series sponsored by WBFO (88.7 FM), will deal with
issues important to this time of life every Monday
night at 6:30 p.m.
The program, which began on October 3, will
focus on mental and physical health, drugs, alchohol,
sex, pregnancy and juvenile justice, among other
prevalent topics concerning youth.
The “Options in Education” program release
also indicates that girls fifteen and under are the
only group in society where the birth rate is
increasing. The survey indicates alchohol use is on
the rise, and drinking is starting at an earlier age,
which may be linked with increased admissions to
mental hospitals.
Researchers claim these facts are misleading.
Seventy percent of the nation’s 16 million twelve to
adolescence
through
fifteen-year-olds
pass
peacefully. Nevertheless, the above statistics form
widespread stereotypes about youth. The purpose of
this series is to cure the unnecessary neglect of an
age group that is often overlooked.

Psychologist at Cornell University, and Harvard
psychiatrist Dr. Robert Coles, are among the
guests:
featured
These interviews include
conversations with youths and with parents,
reflecting on their adolescent children.
Dr. Lipsitz stated that the reason some
adolescents go through periods of stress is because
adults expect this type of behavior. She said,
“Adults batten down die hatches in preparation for
the stressful time, and ready themselves to wait out
the storm.” But, she adds, “This may be a case of
self-fulfilling prophecy in which our expectations of
chaos help to create the predicted behavior.”
Co-producer of “Options in Education” Jo
Ellyn Rackleff stated. “This period of adolescence is
second only to the first three years in importance to
a child’s development, and it has never received the
attention it deserves. We want “Portrait of American
Adolescence” to raise consciousness about how
young people grow up in our country today.” Topics
of the radio programs which will be broadcast every
Monday for the next four weeks are: Pathological
Problems, Teenage Crime, Families youths as part
of them, and Kids alone and with their peers.
Transcripts and cassettes of the five program
series are available at a cost of S2.00 and 525.00
respectively, or $.50 and $5.00 each. To order,

Getting stuck

‘Breaking up is so
easy to do -elevators
J

by Robert Herb in
Spectrum

‘‘I was running out of air.
There was no way to get out and
my frozen broccoli was melting.”

This is the way one exasperated
Ellicott resident described a
recent ordeal when she and her
roommate were trapped in an
elevator for 20 minutes with eight
others.
There are approximately 90
elevators cm both campuses of this
University. These elevators break
down quite frequently evidenced
by the fact that University Police
received 16 calls for people
trapped in stuck elevators in the
months of August and September.
This number is deceptively low
because of the decrease in
University population during the
summer months. According to a
resident of Porter quad in Ellicott,
one elevator has broken down
three times this semester.

There is a multitude of reasons
why the elevators break down.
According to the district manager
for Dover Elevator Co. L. E.

Hamilton, an elevator is a
combination of electrical and
mechanical systems and such

breakdowns. The elevators in the
dorms, he explained, are most
prone to breakdown because they
are in almost constant use from
about 5 a.m. until 3 a.m. and for
24 hours on weekends.
However, said Hamilton, abuse
also plays a major role in the
number of breakdowns. Some of
the abuse, he said, includes the

The elevator company will be

or all elevators in a building are
out of commission. An emergency
call after hours costs about $64 an
hour, Hamilton explained, but is
only half as expensive during the
working day. The University has a
service contract with Dover, said
Hamilton, but ‘hat agreement
does not protect against abuse or
vandalism.
If you get stuck in an elevator,
Hamilton said, there are a few
simple things to remember. First
of all, don’t panic. He claimed the
best thing to -do is to put on the
emergency alarm and wait for
help. Going out through the roof

can be very dangerous and is not
advised unless there is an
emergency situation or there is no
other possible way to get out,
Hamilton concluded.

�Guest Opinion
The future measures toward normalization of
the long-standing US-China relations will have to be
more explicit, since at present one has witnessed the
“useful” experience of Secretary of State Vance’s
“exploratory” visit in Peking in late August, 1977.
Very understandably, such a “usefulness” can no
longer be over emphasized if there isn’t going to be
any clear cut consideration of the rightful Chinese
settling of their own Taiwan question.
Since China and the United States exchanged
diplomatic liaison missions in 1973, while upholding
the respectful spirit of the Shanghai Communique,
Peking has insisted that any broadening of relations
with Washington was absolutely precluded by formal
U.S. ties with the “Nationalist Government” on
Taiwan. Despite President Carter’s contradictions on
his recent dual China objectives in attempts to
“normalize” relations with the People’s Republic,
and meanwhile not "abandon” the remnant Chiang
regime on Taiwan, Senator Edward Kennedy’s call
for full diplomatic ties with the People’s Republic is
prior to Vance’s trip, has been to date most sincere
and re commendable move on behalf of both the
American and Chinese people. Thus, regardless of
the apparent fact that this call had been ignored in
Vance's recent talks in Peking with the Chinese
leaders, Kennedy’s correct objectives concerning
acute normalization of relations with China certainly
deserve serious considerations in the near future.
Critically, Kennedy was in obvious good intent
when he called for the ending of diplomatic relations
with the “Republic of China” to have the way for
full-scale ties with the People’s Republic of China.
With a clear notation in mind of the “Nationalist
Government” established on Taiwan by late Chiang
Kai-shek after he was driven from the mainland by
the Chinese people 28 years ago, Kennedy, in his
speech to the Boston World Affairs Council in

»

mid-August, pronounced, “We must end our military
presence there, and our formal diplomatic relations
with the island.” As expanding on his rationale for
ending formal relations with Taiwan, Kennedy noted
that this has already been carried out by all major
U.S. allies, xsuch as Japan, and that Taiwan is
militarily secure partly because of substantial
American arms shipments and training programs.
Concretely, Kennedy moved to set an early date
for withdrawal of U.S. troops from Taiwan, and
open negotiations on full normalization of relations
with Peking, with an exchange of embassies no later
than 1978. Furthermore, he urged a settlement of
American financial claims against China with Chinese
assets presently frozen in the U.S.; expansions of
governmental contacts, trade and cultural exchange
.between the two nations; and a development of
political and legal steps required for continuing ties
with Taiwan on an unofficial basis.
In view of the current international situation,
the trend toward normalization of U.S.-China
relations is irreversible, despite one’s speculation that
Vance’s recent appearance in China might have been
to create at least some incentive for the Soviet Union
to improve relations with the U.S., particularly
SALT negotiations. Nonetheless, Vance could have
done well other than just “useful” or “explanatory”
with Kennedy’s advice, clearly stressing the
formal
and
informal
distinction
between
relationships, and offering the best path toward
Carter’s contradictory China policy. However, most
importantly, the move made by Kennedy is not at all
hasty, but clearly a timely one. And, the timy is
NOW!

Beyond this accent
To the Editor:

In response to Judy Abramowitz.
Ms. Abramowitz, I sympathize with you. I know
what it is like to be faced with an instructor who
speaks “unintelligible” English. You see, in my high
school, in my country, I had an American teacher,
peace-corps or something.... For the life of me, I
could not understand a word of what she was saving.

She spoke with a drawl, spok'e through her nose, and
completely mispronounced the words of the English
language. Fortunately she did not teach English.
Fortunately too, I realized that I had to learn. I had
to move beyond this accent to the information that
the teacher was trying to impart. I would suggest
that you attempt the same.

Understanding foreign accents
situations such as this. A

To the Editor.
The Spectrum has on several occasions featured
letters from indignant students bewailing the fact
that some TA’s and instructors have “foreign
accents.”
I agre that with some foreign instructors
“learning is a handicap;” it does require some extra
effort, but I assert, that it is not an insurmountable
handicap.

,

Students have created much of the problem for

Which they blame “foreign accents.” This is a viable
“cop-out.” These instructors, are for the most part,
exceptionally qualified, gaining their TA position
because they are so qualified. They arc aware of the
handicap and are willing to provide supplementary
help to help students overcome the “handicap.” But
the negative reaction from American students is
disillusioning, to say the least.
What has struck us all, time and time again, is
the latent prejudice shown by some Americans in

“foreign accent” becomes

something of ridicule! Everyone speaks with an
accent Ms. Abramowitz. In what way was the class a

farce! Was the material in error or irrevelant? What
do you consider intelligible English? Was it
unintelligible because it was different? How long did
you give yourself to get accustomed? Did you
approach your teacher?
One can sense that Ms. Abramowitz and her
classmates have indeed found a scapegoat for their
inadequacies, inadequacies_gs students and people.

Such

intolerance and
unfortunately permeates this institution of “higher

The world is shrinking, fellow students. The
status quo has already begun to topple. It is not
unlikely the most important lesson one can learn in
the 1970’s, is understanding “foreign accents.”

�‘Please do touch*

Statler Commissary

University kitchens
make huge amounts
by Leah B. Levine
Staff Writer

Spectrum

It’s a chef’s paradise, a sweet tooth’s haven, a dieter’s terror. For
anyone with a meal ticket, however, the Statler Commissary is the
student’s breakfast, lunch and dinner.
Croft’s Service Center, located on the Amherst Campus, has
housed the University ‘kitchen’ since May of last year. It is here that

approximately 150,000 meals are prepared daily.
Commissary Manager Gene Cappellimi, mentions that Statler
prepares meals exclusively for this University. He says also that menus
are made up by dieticians who “take into consideration the likes and

d&amp;likes of students.”

At five-thirty in the morning, experienced specialty chefs and
bakers donned in white caps and aprons turn on intricate machinec that
produce tonight’s dinner, and tomorrow’s breakfast and hmch. In a
large sterile room, machines section off various food areas: produce,
soups and meats, breads and desserts

Deskinned spuds

The facility’s produce area consists of large sinks and special
equipment that enables 1500 pounds of vegetables to be cleaned and
cut in less than an hour. A special potato peeler can de-skin fifty
pounds of potatoes in eight minutes. Can a Veg-O-Matic do that?
Soups and gravies are boiled and brewed in another area of the
commissary. Steam kettles with ISO gallon capacities stand near the
meats section. Cuts of meat are sliced and prepared here.
The bread and dessert section are located primarily in the center of
the ‘kitchen.’ Italian breads and buns are made from scratch with
unbleached flour to “meet the requests of the students,” says
Cappellimi. Food Service purchases ready-made sliced white bread,
however.

Puffy screams
After it’s been prepared, the unbleached dough goes into proofing
bins. These are tall, thin shiny cabinets that accelerate the rising of
dough. Afterwards, two magnificent rotary ovens await their puffy
arrival. The bread bakes golden brown as it takes a ferris ride on shiny
silver shelves. Needless to say, Hansel and Gretel would scream with
delight at the sight of these ovens: three witches can fit easily. Bread
lovers will salivate to learn that 1 500 pieces of baked goods are made
daily.
The pie machine turns out 800 fruit pies in an hour. 1400 fry
cakes (doughnuts) are ready to eat in sixty minutes. Statler’s cookie
machine can roll off 120 cookies per minute. An intricate device, the
cake depositor plops batter into pans at a rate that would make Betty
Crocker’s head spin. However, due to lack of parts it has yet to be
used.
Food prepared is placed in heating cabinets to insure proper
temperature while it is distributed to various parts of the University by
massive trucks.
The next time you indulge in veal parmigiana. watch your weight
with salads or gorge yourself with doughnuts and cherry pie, remember
who makes them and where they are being made.

the Coop gets much of its food from other
collectives, such as the Yeast West Bakery, Clear Eye

Medicine Wheel Herb and Healing Collective.
I don’t know where The Spectrum got its
“composite list of various student tastes,” which
makes it look like the Coop has little to offer. Of
course, the Coop doesn’t carry items like hamburger
helper, beefaroni, or Pepsi. That’s shit food. The
Coop sells high quality foods that are otherwise
unobtainable at good prices in our area. There is a
wide selection of: produce, grains, beans, flours,
cheeses, nut butters, oils, dried fruit, nuts, whole

There was no mention of how the Coop

that at Super Duper.

Sometimes these myths take the place of facts in people’s minds.

Ms. BeB maintains her “Iffly white” conception of “reality”
“Equality," she states, “will only start to exist when qualifications
are the only thing studied.” No, Ms. Bell, equality in education can
only exist when the whole education system is revised. When black
and other minority children get an equal education in elementary
and secondary schools. Our preparatory system today is full of
inequality. From lack of minority teachers and remedial reading
programs, to the racist dental of the Made experience and the actual
rale in American and World History. Women are tracked into Home
Economics and shunned away from the sciences. This leaves them
unfairly disadvantaged when competing with the white male for
Med school, law school and the working world. Grammar school
teaches the women to cook and dean for men. Minorities are also

Chetn lab needed
To the Editor:

I am disgusted by the way myself and other
freshmen have been ousted out of Chetn labs we
were registered for. In early September, I wrestled
with my schedule and waited on long drop add lines
-to get the courses I needed. I have (had) Chetn lab
and recitation for Friday afternoon, and if I get a
schedule card fresh out of the computer right now, it
will testify to that. Then the Chem Dept, wanted us
to register again at a prescribed time, at the
stockroom to make it official, which I did. 1 signed
my name next to my typed name and filled out a
little card, after waiting on a long line. Then the
Chem Dept, told me I was officially registered in
Friday afternoon Chemistry lab.
On September 20, my name appeared on a list
to see Mrs. Clark, who is in charge of registration for

the Chemistry Department. Mrs. Clark told me I
wasn’t In Friday afternoon Chem lab and that there
was no room for me there. So 1 went to Drop Add to
obtain a schedule card that clearly showed me to be
registered in Friday afternoon Chem lab, and told
her that I also registered at the stockroom as we
were supposed to to confirm my recitation and lab
space. She still insisted that there was no room for
me in the course because someone had put the
wrong lab capacity into the computer. I told her I
thought that was very unlikely, that in such an
important apd easy step as.ptifting a lab capacity
into a computer, no one could make such a blunder.
So I have gone from being officially registered in
Friday afternoon Chem lab to being dumped and
having no Chem lab at all.

Who is aggressor?
To the Editor.

Mr. Shabat Moshe’s Sept. 23 letter to The
Spectrum
raised
“Egyptian Lecture Damaging”
a few points which require clarification:
1. He claimed the evening was ‘fabricated to
damage the image of Israel’. Was it really? Is Israel
immune to criticism of historical and political
validity? The image of Israel is, in fact,
self-damaging, for any objective observer who reads
the documentary history of the Arab-lsraeli conflict
can pinpoint several facts:
-

—

The Zionist colonization of Palestine and
continuous aggression and expansionist
policies have inflicted incredible injustices on the
Palestinian Arabs and not only usurped their
political and civil rights but forcibly dispossessed and
evicted them from their country reducing them to
mere refugees scattered all over the world. Isn’t fills
a clear violation of the United Nations’ Universal
Declaration on Human Rights?
b. The whole world knows that Israel’s Prime
Minister Menahem Begin headed the terrorist
organization
Irgun.Zva Leumi
which planted
bombs in crowded marketplaces, murdered British
soldiers, blew up Jerusalem’s King David Hotel, and
savagely
massacred the inhabitants of the
non-belligerent and unarmed Arab village of Deir
Yassin in April, 1948. Can Mr. Begin deny that
hundreds of old men, women and children were
deliberately butchered, (tripped and mutilated, and
that young girls and pregnant women were raped and
disembowled? Arthur
Koestkr
called the
“bloodbath” of Deir Yassin “the psychologically
decisive factor” that triggered the Palestinian Arabs’
forced ‘exodus’.
•2, Mr. Mosfae alleged that the Egyptians and
Syrians wan the aggressors in the October, 1973
War. Who is the red aggressor? Israel, in 1967,
beQignentiy occupied Egyptian, Syrian and
Palestinian land, set up Nad-Uke concentration

camps, and refused to respond to Arab peace
initiatives. Doesn’t that constitute aggression? And is
there a person in his right mind who can stand still
and sanction foreign occupation of his country?
3. The millions of Arabs whom Mr. Moshe
claimed want “to destroy Israel” are the actual
victims of the Israeli Military Machine which
bombed civilians, brought destruction to the cities of
Ismailia, Suez, and Qunaitera. and altered the
character of Old Jerusalem. Didn’t the Israeli Chief
of Staff, iii his press conference on the second day of
the October War say:
“We’ll teach the Arabs a lesson they will never
forget. We’ll erase their cities from the face of this
planet. We’ll tUm their days nights. We’ll make their
children orphans and their wives widows?” Can there
be more vicious and hostile intentions?
4. As for the legitimacy of the state of Israel
Resolution, since
as a result of the U.N.
when is the U.N. a real estate broker. On the other
hand, if, for argument’s sake, the U.N. partition plan
is considered feasible, then what happened to the
Palestinian portion and why is it that Israel is the
only country in the world that has not defined its
borders?
5. Finally, the words ‘Arabs* and ‘Jews’ were
used to misrepresent the issue before the Jewish
community by insinuating that the Arab-Israeli
conflict is a religious and racial one which is not
true. The Jews and the Arabs are Semites. In reality,
the conflict is between the Arabs and the Israelis
who usurped their land and are continuing to
practice genocide against them.
How long will individuals like Mr. Moshe
continue to deceive themselves by believing the
fictions they have created? Such attitudes cannot
encourage the prospects for peace in the Middle
East; they can only add oil to the fire.

night.

-

Located off the last turn of the Grand Prix
racing circuit, the bog, a sloping, rain-drenched mire,
was the scene of the fiery destruction of at least
three cars. Two other wrecks were believed to be
leftovers from last year’s Grand Prix. According to
Several glazed-eyed observers, these vehicles were
stolen and ignited because, “The bog wanted a hog.”
Throngs swarmed and surrounded the flaming
cars. Mud, bottles, cans and firewords were thrown
at the raging fires, as well as across the fire at the
crowds on the opposite side. Why? Chants from the
hords explained: “The other side sucks. The other
side sucks ...” etc., ad infinitum.
Senate recesses
Several burly

individuals overturned the
still-flaming autos. Others smashed the sacrifices
beyond recognition. What appeared to be a blazing,
brand-new Capri was flung into a narrow ditch. A
youth stripped down to a pair of shoes and
proceeded to urinate on the sports car. Not to be
by even himself, he then hurled his body
over the flaming ruins.
When asked why he did such a thing, the youth
(who identified himself only as Al from Pontiac.

Michigan) replied, “Why not? It glues everyowe a

Al’s two partners in the escapade, idftdifd

while holding candles or flares. “We started doing

held his companions clothes during their
performance.

Mouse vetoes bill
Besides the flames, additional problems plagued
these and other exhibitionists. Kathy Rouse, a
student at Monmouth College, cited the hazards of
thrown bottles as one reason for not repeating her
feat. Atop a different burnt car, Kathy had bared her
breasts to the crowd’s frenzied chants for “more tits,
more tits.”
v ,- ' y
The partying continued in the bog as Saturday
night became a chilled Sunday morning Several
people chanted for new sacrifices, preferably Jeeps
and Winnebagos. Remarkably, police and firemen
never entered the bog to intervene on Saturday
night, and therefore were unavailable for comment.

Spectrum Staff Writer

WATKINS GLEN, N.Y.
James Hunt of Great
Britian, driving a Mclaren m26 won a dramatic
United States Grand Prix for formula one cars.
Hunt’s narrow victory came after he had broken
Niki Lauda’s lap record during qualifying rounds to
place him on the pole. It was the first victory for the
new m26 chassis and Hunt’s second this year.
Mario Andretti finished second, just 100 yards
behind, making up a 14-second deficit within 3 laps
to bring the estimated Crowd of 100,000 to its feet.
Hunt’s rain tires were chunking badly on the drying
track as he nursed his car to the finish, apparently
unaware of how hard Andretti was coming on. “1
could feel my left front tire wearing badly, but I
decided to take the chance and go all out for the
win,” the veteran Andretti said afterwards.
Jody Scheckter was third in the Wolf, and Niki
Lauda fourth in the Fcrarri. Lauda’s conservative
drive to fourth clinched his second world driving
-

championship in three years, but is expected to drive
for the Brabham team next year.

Gambling on tires
The Brabhams were the strongest team in
qualifying, with Hans Stuck qualifying second
behind Hunt and John Watson third. But their hopes
we~e stuttered early. Stuck outdragged Hunt to the
first turn and built up a commanding lead for 14 laps
until crashing and surrendering the lead in turn seven
while lapping a slower car.

Watson took a gamble by starting the race on
dry weather tires, hoping that be could save a pit
stop if everyone else had to change over front rain
tires. But on the first lap he spun on the wet track
and came around in last place. Later on he changed
to rain tires and consistently posted the fastest tune
of the day until Ronnie Peterson lapped faster in the
six-wheeled Tyrrell during the dosing stages. Both
Tyrrells were fastest down the main straight at 178.3
mph.

Deliberate puddling
Most of the race was run on a wet track due to a

steady drizzle but as the track started to dry. tires
became a real problem for a lot of the drivers. The
treaded “wet” tires overheat when used on dry
pavement, a condition that often leads to their
failure. Consequently, the lines around the track
were changing constantly as driven deliberately
drove through the existing puddles in an attempt to
keep the tires cool and thus avoid pitting for new
ones.
Hunt, probably remembering how Andretti had
stolen victory from him in the dosing stages in Japan
last year by charging on a drying track, was carefully
saving his car. But when he went by the pits for the
last time hr, crew Was signalling him wildly that
Andretti was catching up. When it was then
announced that Andretti had cut the lead to l.S
seconds on the hackstraight, the crowd grew restless
with antidpation. But Hunt held off to win the race
and deny Andretti his second U.S. Grand Prix
victory.

players are working towards a chance to compete in

out for the fun and enjoyment
Betz and Nero are very optimistic about this
year’s squad. “Last year we were surprised making it
to the playoffs during a rebuilding year, but this year
I expect it,” noted Betz. Nero explained, ‘This is a

Both pitchers feel the key to the Bulls* success is

Booters battle to
3—3 overtime tie
by Michael Rndny
Spectrum Staff Writer

Buffalo soccer coach Sal Esposito once said, “Big Four games are
always tough, close scoring affairs.” Monday’s soccer match between
the Bulls and Canisius College proved to be no exception as the two
clubs battled to a 3—3 tie, in overtime.
This was Buffalo’s second contest in three days and the Bulb
looked a little tired after having defeated a tough Houghton College
team on Saturday afternoon.
Brst half play was ragged as both Buffalo and Canisius had trouble
mounting their respective offensive attacks. The contest’s first twenty
minutes of action saw end-to-end play as both teams experienced
difficulty passing the ball. Buffalo started to apply pressure late in the
period but shots by Jim Rudolph and Steve Feeney were blocked by
the Canisius goaltender and the half ended with neither team in the
scoring column.
Low kick score
The Bulb scored the game’s first goal at the 59:40 mark. Ramsey
Quartey scored on a low kick to the left of the Golden Griffin net.
Barry Kleeman and Luis Azcue picked up the assists on the goal which
was scored after a scramble in front of the net.
Buffalo added another score eighteen minutes later to take a 2-0
lead. Mark Karrer’s low shot deflected off a Griffin fullback and went
into the net. The goal was Karrer’s sixth of the season.
Canisius came back to score just two minutes later as the Bulk
made a costly error. Tom Occhuito got around the Buffalo defense and
put the ball past goalie Mark Celeste who had come out to cut down
the angle on the kick. The ball was booted high into the net and
Canisius now trailed by one.
The Griffins tied the score it 88:14 as Occhuito found Billy Moran
alone in front of the Buffalo net. Moran wasted no time in blasting the
ball in and sending the game into overtime.

Score knotted
The Bulls came out strong at the start of the first overtime period
and Karrer, Buffalo’s leading scorer, scored on an indirect kick with an
assist from George Daddario.
The Buffalo football team came onto the sidelines to cheer on the
soccer Bulls but they could not prevent Canisius from knotting the
score once again. Moran scored his second goal ofthe contest on a long
shot after a pass from Floss. Buffalo fullback Wain Reid prevented
another goal from being scored later in die period as he blocked a shot
after Celeste had fallen down on the wet Rotary Held grass.
Neither team could score during the last ten-minute overtime as
the defenses played well. There were few good scoring opportunities
during this period but they were not taken advantage of and the match
ended deadlocked at three goals apiece.
The Bulls defeated Houghton by a score of 2-0. The win was
Buffalo’s second shutout of the season. Karrer and fullback Mike Man
scored for the Bulls. Allan’s score came on an indirect kick from
midfield as Houghton suffered its first defeat of the season.
Buffalo now has a 3-2-1 record. The next home game is today
against Ftedonia State College at 4 pm. Buffalo plays at Buffalo State
on Saturday afternoon at 2 pm. in another Big Four contest.

Two local products haw; burst opto the tennis scene this year to
lead their respective teams to success. Freshman Todd Miller and
sophomore Mimi Weiss jftr playing first singles for the Bulls in their
first year here.

Miller played second singles during his first three years at Sweet

transfer from Geneseo, has played in the number one spot since her
sophomore year at Hamburg High S&lt;%ool and doesn't feel any pressure
!
holding that position for the Bulb.
Miller spent up to Hflpcn hours a day this summer in preparation
for this season. The practice seems to have paid off though, since he
has lost only twice this year. Miller, Who has won seven matches, was
The Spectrum’s Athlete of the Week last week, sharing honors with
soccer goalie Mark Celeste.
At 5 feet, 7 inches and 130 lbs., Miller doesn't try to overpower
his opponent. He uses a hard serve to keep the.presaure,pff himself but
relies on his steady groundstrpkes and excellent (endurance. “If it’s
going to take three or foiir hours to play a match, i’ll play it," he said.
But he doesn’t play a defensive game. “When I am playing good
tennis,” he claimed, “it’s because I’m playing really aggressive."

Weiss, a slender 5Toot, JO inch southpaw, uses a graceful two hand
backhand to disarm her opponents. She learned the stroke when she
was young and wasn't strong enough to use the one hand backhand.
Weiss also lias a powerful forehand but sometimes gets too anxious and
hits it wild. “I’m more secure with my backhand,” she revealed. "It's
more natural for me because ( don’t use the (standard) Kastern
forehand grip.” Amazingly, she has never taken tennis lessons, although
she did receive some limited instruction from a family friend.
Ironically, one of Miller’s two losses this year was to Mimi’s
brother, BQ1 Weiss, who Miller calls, “the best player in Western New
York.” Both, Miller’s brother and sister played tennis at UB. Last year,
sister Amy won the Intercollegiate Athletic and Related Instruction
Award. Todd and Mimi have different views on the advantages of
having an older brother Or sister that plays tennis. Miller concedes that,
“They got me interested in tennis,’’ but he doesn’t practice much with
them. Weiss, on the other hand, practices frequently with her brother.

Block to atadykgg
Miller selected Buffalo because he wanted to get settled and see
what he could do in tennis. As a management major, he finds that road
matches are particularly time consuming and often make it tough to
study. Weiss, who transferred to Buffalo to take advantage of this
University’s superior nursing and tennis programs, agreed that road
matches cause studying problems. On a recent trip to Brock port, Weiss
convinced her
towel dry the wet courts, so that the time
it took to travel there wasn’t wasted.
Weis* wasn’t happy with the tennis program at Genesee. “It was a
pretty poorly run program,’’ she said. “We didn’t play many matches
and the coach wasn’t very much into tennis. It was worse than high
school, and that really turned me off."
Miller, too, likes the fennis program here at Buffalo. “This team is
definitely a big surprise,’’ha said. “1 didn’t think they’d be half as good
as they are.” Being placed in Division III has really helped the squad,
according to Miller. “If we were to get two or three good freshmen
next year we could hate one of the best Division III teams in the
country,” be said. “We’re just a notch below that right now.”
In any case. Coaches Tom LaPenna and Connie Camnitz are
fortunate that these two tialented athletes elected to perform for 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;

�SUNY allows frats
to make a comeback
by Marshall Rosenthal
Special Features Editor

Fraternities and sororities are attempting lo re-establish chapters
this and other SUNY campuses now that the SUNY Board of

on

Trustees has reversed its 23-year-old ban on Greek organizations.
“The outlaw of fraternities,” says Signa Alpha Mu Field Secretary
Leland Wanders, “was apparently conceived by legislators who thought
that ‘Greek’ life was a detriment to the health and welfare of a college
students.”
As part of the re-activation process, a Greek Information We.-k has
been designed by twenty-six fraternities and sororities in conjunction
with Dr. Khairy A. Kawi, Assistant to the Vice President for Student
Affairs. This informal gathering is planned for Squire Hall the week of
October 17 when representatives of fraternal organizations formerly at
this institution will discuss the advantages of “Greek” life on the
college campus.

&gt;n forbidden
When the ban was lifted last October paving the way for
reinstatement of frats, a committee headed by Kawi, comprised of
'acuity, students, and staff, drafted a resolution forbidding the denial
of membership to any person on the basis of race, creed, national
origin, age, or disability. This guidelines also outlaw initiation rites
known as “hazing,” which recently have caused mental or physical
harm to pledges.
Kawi’s major concern about fraternities and sororities is that they
“contribute to the quality of life on campus in a positive way, not only

socially, but emphasizing academic performance of their membership.”
Kawi added, “They should enhance civil responsibilities by undertaking
community and University affairs.” He further indicated that an

Inter-Greek Council will be established when fraternities and sororities
are formalized. Its purpose will be to plan and coordinate the fraternal
organizations.
The question of housing such organizations has lent itself to many
possibilities. Presently, four alternatives are under consideration
according to Kawi. Fraternal meeting houses only may be constructed,

students association with a frat would live outside its quarters.
Another concept is that each frat would request a number of

meaning

on-campus dormitory rooms in a specific area. A third and likely
possibility is that frats will rent off-campus houses or apartments, as
was done by Greek organizations at this University prior to their exile
in 1962.
The final but long-range alternative would be the installation on
the Amherst Campus of what is commonly known as 'I ralernity
Row.” While Kawi terms this “a concept rather than a reality.” the
master plan for Amherst does not allocate space for such a facility.
Further construction of buildings and houses on University property
would have to be approved by the University’s Board of Trustees in
addition to being approved by the state.

Some female dogs have

“One day I counted seven males on one female
(dog),” she said. “The poor thing, every lime she’d
move, they’d move.” This activity has reportedly
been going on for ihe last two weeks.
The fertility period of female dogs is regulated
by the eslrous cycle, reoccurring every six months.
"A male dog can sense it for darn near a mile,”

reported Thomas Collins, director of the local
Socle.v for ihe Prevention of Cruelly to Animals
(SPC A)

Though dogs are actually fertile for only one
week, the accompanying identifying odor can be
detected during the week before and week after,
according to Collins. Thus, a female in heal is
hounded for three weeks. Judging by the amount of
dog-frolicking on campus, a number of area females
have similar cycles.

kovak figures that it’s one out of five owner*
who let their dogs run loose. Labelling hersell a do;’
lover, she urges students to keep their dogs tied up
“Something should be done about those dogs,'
echoed a student living on I nglewood Avenue
“They’ve been running free all over the roads.’’
In her ten years as a crossing guard. Kovak has
witnessed five dogs killed by cars in the
Main/Lnglewood area Several dogs “hang out” in
the alley behind F actory Outlet, she informed, and
dash rigfil out into Main Street traffic when they
spot (or smell) a female across the way. "I’m always
afraid that they’ll get hit or cause a terrible
accident,’’ she related

Fighting among males is another problem at this
lime and Kovak fears for the school kids, noting.
“Dogs are quite vicious when they run in packs.”
Owner apathy cited

On August 14, two federal marshals arrived at the church with
court orders for Beyer and Cline, ordering the two of them to
sunender to federal authorities on the following Monday morning at
9:30 a m. A press conference was immediately called at which Beyer
and Cline announced that they would not surrender. The court orders
were burned.
The Buffalo Draft Resisters Union held a meeting at the church on
the evening ol August 17 to discuss wha the response would be to the
arrival ol the fBI agents. All agreed that direct confrontation with the
police should be avoided. By the morning of the 18th, hundreds of
people had gathered outside of the church. At about 12:30, 32 local
police and federal agents arrived. Fights broke out at the church
entrance resulting in nine arrests, including that of Cline and Beyer
who was held on the assault charges.
Arrest expected
At his trial

1969, Beyer contested that he had acted in
in
self-defense after having been hit by a federal agent with a restraining
chain. The court sessions ended with his conviction and sentencing of
three years in prison. Beyer appealed the conviction, lost in 1970, and
then decided to emigrate from the United Slates while free on bail.
Now Beyer seeks to return to this country on October 19 or
thereabouts after seven years, five of which have been spent in the
quiet ol Bancroft, Ontario. On October 19, 1967, he turned in his draft
card to the Attorney General’s office during the March on the
Pentagon. The Attorney General then was Ramsey Clark. This October
19, exactly ten years later, Beyer will return to Buffalo with an
attorney to defend him. That attorney is Ramsey Clark.
Beyer recently told Mike Healy of the Courier-Express that after
seeing a continual flow of friends go home under amnesty programs of
Presidents Ford and Carter, he decided that he didn’t want to find
himself someday “a 50 year old man still in exile.’’ Fie continued that
he would face whatever punishment he had to and that he “expected
to be arrested immediately.”

University Press (UP) is now “repenting for its sins” and, under a

The financial failure of University Press to date has been primarily
due to “mismanagement.” according to a Sub-Board spokesman. HP's
previous business manager resigned last spring in the face of HP’s
turmoil.

Financial scrutiny
“In the past,” according to Sub-Board Publications Division
Director Bill Kinkelstein “University Press had been a completely
autonomous organization and there was no formalized policy to check
on it.” In response to this. Sub-Board issued UP a strict set ol
guidelines, including an operational handbook specifically defining the
roles and processes of every aspect of University Press. This year’s
Business Manager Marie Bernard welcomed the change and feels that
“through belter operational guidelines University Press can function
more effectively ."

Sub-Board will now keep a close watch on UP’s financial situation

The effects of the previous financial difficulties at UP have not

Sub-Board spokesman put it, “If I didn’t think it would work, I would
not have recommended for a continuation of the organization.”
Bernard was optimistic, stating, “If problems do arise, we will

“Hopefully, all the misunderstandings have been irohed out and UP

University bus budget falls
short of necessary dollars

The
University bus services budget is
approximately S200.000 short of the amount
needed to operate busses loi the 1977-78 school
yeai. although the Stale Division ot Budget (DOB)
has piomised the University the remaining funds.
Accoidmg to Vice President for Finance and
Management I dwaid Doty, "The minimum amount
ol money needed to run the buses this year is
approximately Sb 15,000." The figure had to be
raised to somcwheic between Sb40,000-S650,000
because ol added expenses for this summer's evening
and weekend buses.

by Mem cutting that look place in Albany last year.
According to Doty, “This cut was lost in the much
laigei problem ol the State's balancing its budget last
year."
No buses, no classes
Doty, who realized the problem last year, said
“We could not live with it, or operate with this
year's budget." said Doty Director ol Bus Services
Roger McGill said, “How could we have classes
without buses'"
The allocation ol exlia money was immediately
arranged by Doty, and approved by DOB The
money would come out ol this University’s “General

staff members resign, leave, or ate tired Doty said,
“This is money not spent, and in essence us saved by
the University."

The savings budget is gencially used to offset
the following year's expenditure. Next year's bus
budget is already being computed and Doty
estimates it will come to approximately SX00.000
“I’m pretty sure they won't be pruning this item this
year." said Doty.
Costs rise
One of the reasons that the bus budget is rising
is because Blue Bird costs arc steadily increasing The
contract is a three-year binding agreement where the
cost of a Blue Bird transit bus will go from $I7.‘H)
per hour to S2I.25 in I 1)? 4 and a yellow school bus
will increase from SI 5.95 to SI 8.90 per hour. This
cost includes the salary of the drivers, gasoline,
operating costs, and maintenance. Blue Bird was
awarded this contract by a scaled bid opened in
public
A major point emphasized by McOill. Doty and
Vice President for Finance Paul Bacon was that in no
way were services being altered because of the
confusion in funding. Doty said. "Tlieie has been no
impact on the users, and thcie will not be The
problem is strictly one of Financing and was settled
last year when n was realized that ninie money foi

The Buffalo Comedy Workshop opened its October stay in a ney
home last Wednesday night, and judging by the si/e and reaction of the
audience, it should be a warm household.
At the Tralfamadore Cafe, where on most nights the crowd swings
to sounds of ja//. they were laughing long and hard at “Liver Is My

members Jim Bisco. Cathy Carter. Robert (iroves, Carl Kowalkowski,
Anthony Lewis, and Victoria Taylor.
The highlights ul the show were the skits dealing specifically with
Buffalo and its peculiarities. Among these, the one on Mayor
Makowski's last hours in office received the largest ovation. While
scanning the list of achievements during his term, Makowski (played by
Carl Kowalkowski) addresses his critics: “About the blizzard of 77: I

Gallery 219 reopen
to all art mediums
Gallery 219. located in Scjiiirc Hall, will be open on October I si
encompassing almost every artistic medium, including poetry reading,
video, pholoujaphy. painting and sculpture. The gallery, which also
serves as a studio lor graduate art students, is open to all people seeking
recognition and a place to exhibit their work. Appropriate space, which
is given to students in the Masters program first is often difficult to
obtain because ol high demand. The existence and proper maintenance
o( Gallery 219 are of vital importance not only to this University's An
Department, but to students who might otherwise be lacking exposure
to the arts.
The Gallery is funded by University Union Activities Board
(UUAB) which is supported by Sub Board I. So far. Director of Gallery
219 Violet Lee has been able to work with a low budget by arranging
such activities as co-sponsored programs with other galleries.
Volunteers needed
In mid-October, Charlie Clark from the Hall Walls Gallery in
Bultalo will be presenting his painting and sculpture lor two weeks. On
November I st. a graduate student will give a lithograph showing. Other
plans lor the gallery include a Chinese art exhibit by this University's
students.
There is still unscheduled space during the last half of February.
March and April available to people interested in exhibiting their work
In addition, volunteers are needed as guards to keep the gallery open
each afternoon Monday through Friday. Anyone wishing to volunteer
can contact Violet Lee at 837-1020 after 6 pan.

Defeat
T'i llw l:\lllin

Melt for peace

11h

A movie called War Games, last heavily circulated during
junior high school and early high school years of strong anti war
sentiment, depicted the devastating effects of a conventional nuclear
warhead. The action was situated in urban and suburban areas and
featured buildings and streets collapsing, and fires everywhere fed by
whirlwinds of 120 miles per hour caused by intense, concentrated heat
The most horrifying spectacle was the effect of the radiation
emitted by the nuclear warhead on the people of these urban and
suburban areas. Sandbags could shield them against the falling buildings
hut not against the radiation. Their eyes melted in their sockets and
dripped down their cheekbones. Their skin crusted with third degree
burns and their bone narrow dissolved. They screamed and screamed
until their tongues caught fire and blood spurted forth. Mothers
clutched their babies and felt them disintegrate in their arms.
When the corpses were lined up by the few survivors, none could
be identified because they were so badly burned and charred beyond
recognition.
Members of the House of Representatives in Washington should be
forced to watch War Games until they melt into their leather
upholstered chairs. On Friday, the House defeated by a 297 to 109
margin a proposal by Democrat-Liberal Ted Weiss of Manhattan barring
funds for production or deployment of the neutron bomb.
The neutron bomb concentrates on destroying people, slowly,
while leaving buildings and bridges and other modern wonders intact.
Called an "enhanced radiation weapon," the warhead would
supposedly deter the Soviets frattacking Western Europe (with the
emphasis on Western). It was designed to kill attacking soldiers while
"sparing" civilian areas from damage, enabling friendly forces to move
into blast zones as quickly as possible. This new, extremely efficient,
destructive device has been labeled a defensive weapon.
All this is irrelevant. The use of nuclear weapons has always been
regarded as a last resort to decisively terminate international conflict.
Because it is so efficient, because it is small enough to be fired from a
Lance missle, by NATO troops, for example, this nuclear weapon could
conceivably be used in a limited war.
Limited wars are those that are currently being fought in different
corners of the earth. There has never been a time in which limited wars
have not been fought. So-called progress, especially in African and
South and Latin American countries, has become synonymous with the
detainment or killing of large numbers of people.
The authorization bill of the neutron bomb for the Energy
Research and Development Administration is worth $2.67 billion. The
State Department would surely love to recoup some of those funds, at
a savings to the American people, of course, by selling the bomb to
leaders of foreign nations. Fond as he is of public executions, Idi Amin
would be eternally grateful. This would be his newest toy. At an
exhorbitant price, he would invite the international media to Uganda,
and then the whole world would watch as he melted the inhabitants of
entire villages.
Prime Minister John Voorster of South Africa would be next. With
a neutron bomb, he could relocate entire shantytowns without having
to build a thing. He would simply burn out one population and move
in another by truck. Nobody could accuse him of wasting time or
money or building materials.
Think of what a beautiful city Beirut would still be if the Christian
Phalangists and Palestinians had tossed neutron bombs instead of heavy
artillery at each other. The Israelis could settle the Left Bank in peace
because the Palestinian refugees would emigrate to northern Lebannon.
The House's approval of funds for this new, efficient killer comes
after the same approval by the Senate in July. It is now up to President
Carter to decide upon the production and possible deployment of the
neutron bomb. Hopefully, his NATO allies will tell him that he is
playing games with the American people by turning down the B-1
bomber and then pressing for funds for this . . .
Carter is playing War Games. We must be thankful that he did not
play them in time for Vietnam.

Equality and quotas

To the l.iliho

In response to the letter by the "( ommiltee to
Reverse the Bakke Decision," I must say the
coniimltee is in the wrong to think that the decision
is against equality
In fact, it is for equality, but I
expected too much from the committee. I mean, this
group ol people think equality is a wuota, at least
that's the impression I got
It the committee would look into the issue with
a broader mind, they might understand the reasons
behind Allan Bakkes suit His reasons lor tiling suit
against the University ol California's medical school
at Davis were that he had scored higher on his
aptitude tests and had higher college grades than
many of the students accepted, of whom were

(The only way to get into
Med
School in the 11SA is to be better qualif ied,
academically, and if the committee didn’t know that
your worse off than I expected )
Bui the thing that really gets me is that you
believe equality will only he obtained by filling
quotas, even If it means filling in a sport with a
kangaroo People should be accepted at a school
because they're a person not a number
The next time you voice your opinion, get the
facts straight and don't say you can’t get equality
without quotas because it makes the women and
minorities seem as il they were inferior when they’re
not

II there was a true commitment on the part ol
the US government, then there would be a monetary
commitment on the part of the professional schools
to create additional space lor minority students and
women who don't have the required marks because
of deprived circumstances. We know that his is not
the case. Our society and government thought they
could take the cheap way out. This is not however,
the easy way out. because now we have even
increased competition between students for these
limited amounts of space Then, for some reason, it
quickly turns into a racial question as Tin Spinmini

In this case the quota will harm while men who

While I am not a religious person. I am
nevertheless Jewish. It appears to me that the issue
raised by "I’at ('. Roman" (who. according to the
respective registrars at both CB and Buffalo Stale
College, has never been a registered student at either
institution within the last four years) is not one of
religiosity but one of racism and anli-Seiiiilisiii. This
is clearly illustrated m "Roman's” statement that UB
is “becoming an appeasement center for minority
students"
The
S/hitmiii 0/17/77). While
"Roman's” attack has been focused on Jews, it is

Repugnant anti-Semitism

Re I’at Roman's last epistle. It has now become
apparent to even the dullest among us that the issue
isn't the granting a few holidays, but a particularly
repugnant brand of anti-Semitism (Is it possible to
have an unrepugnanl amt-Semilism?) Sad, very sad,
too

Mr Roman thinks that since so many peopleagreed with him, he had obviously hit it right He has

make Mr Roman feel to have it suggested that his
minority garnered their cultural integrity by simply

remark
about

Jewish
comrades
being
"overbearing" made them feel?
If Mr Roman is-incapable of discussing the issue
at hand, that is, the amount ot cultural and religious
divergence that can be absolutely granted while
maintaining a semblance of social cohesion, he
should take his demagoguery and go join the silent
majority.
His majority is obviously the same
majority that opposed the American Revolution,
civil rights, and what have you Psshhaaw w on t hese
majorities. Mr Roman might go home for a while
and think about his minority status, not only
cultural, but metaphysical. Perhaps then he might
come back and report that gleal mg over I he support

Your editorial of September 28 concerning
nuclear power made two main points: firstly, that
since so much money has been spent on nuclear “it
will never go away,” and secondly, that the risks
involved are unknown, and should be researched
more extensively for that reason. Both points artfallacious and misleading.
Firstly, it is precisely because so much money
has gone down the nuclear path that many people
are beginning to recognize it for the economic
disaster that it is, and that in turn will play a minor
role in the demise of the industry. The Vice
President
of America’s
third largest
actor
manufacturer was quoted in The New York Times of
September 2 I as saying “In about two years you arcgoing to see this industry disintegrate. We have yet
to show a profit.” 1 might add that the drop in
reactor sales, from 30 per year in the early ‘70’s to 2
in 1976, seems to indicate poor prospects of ever
approaching a profit margin.
Your second point, that the risks are unknown,
is even more misleading. The risks are very well
known, the insuperable problem is how to reduce
industry will claim that they have been
those risks
minimized: others, (30,000 recently in France
alone), will argue mat they have not. Your editorial
stressed that more research is now needed to identify
the risks
the writer is clearly some years out ol
date, and ignores entirely the large and growing
momentum away
from an already risky and
economically faltering industry, a momentum that is
being
acknowledged
by
even
the
Carter
Administration in its Plutonium moratorium
Any generalization that is made about the
current state of the nuclear industry should he

economic,
social. political, and technological
problems that it is encountering ight now. It should

I believe Oakslone I arm has offered me, as well
as many others, a was to fulfill m&gt; potentials, both
academic and personal. Too often I have felt limited
anti channeled into in&gt; chosen discipline by the
University anil too often I see myself and other
students developing "tunnel vision" narrowing our
intellect to the department of the University from
which we are expecting our degree and disregarding
the field of l iberal Arts. My months at Oakslone
I arm have allowed me to investigate areas never
offered to me before, to enlighten me to the
philosophical areas of my lields of interest and
enable me to grow both academically and personally
In closing I say, Oakslone I arm probably is not
“the place” for everyone, but lor those who wish to
accept the knowledge and growth potential available
it is a rewarding and beneficial experience.

Tie line service at

Tie line phone service at this University has been restored to most
organizations after alleged student abuses forced
the
Administration to substantially cut service last year.
President of Student Association (SA) Dennis Delia said he
"refused to accept the idea that the students are solely responsible for
the exploitation.” Delia inferred that Administration abuses also took
place. He claimed “students were the only ones punished but not the
sole abusers.”
Delia and Assistant Vice President and Comptroller William
Baumer reached an agreement in which tie line service was restored to
The Spectrum Community Action Council, University Union
Activities Board Student Association. New York Public Interest
Research Group, Millard Fillmore College Association, Student Bar
Association. Inter-Residence Council Business and the Graduate
Student Association.
Delia described tie line service as "a dead issue because it was

about it too,”

Sneaky and sleazy
To some people it is not solved. Director of Oroup Legal Services
David Brownstein has two major objections to the termination of lie
line service in his office. Brownstein exclaimed. "The Administration
cut tie lines out rather arbitrarily, paying no attention to SA
arguments. Secondly, the student government was very subjective in
the
of lie lines." Brownstein added that the
Administration took the service away and the Student Association had
to negotiate to gel it back, "This was a sneaky and sleazy way to
operate.”
Originally the problem of student abuses occurred because tie lines
were being used for personal calls. This busied the lines for hours and
important calls could not be connected. Student organizations with
access to tie lines, now pay a Hat rale of S27.00 per month lor
unlimited long distance calls anywhere in New York Stale or

Phony monopoly
On March 18, 1976 the Federal
Communications
Commission
that telephone customers
install their own equipment
without paying service charges to
the phone company. This decision
gave rise to a competitive market,
one that will be beneficial to the
American
consumer and the
economy.
One competitive retail store is
Phone World in Amherst. Their
phones are sold instead of rented.
"We have just about any style the
public might want, including the
“figure Phone” with calculator,
digital clock and daily calendar,"
sa i«.l employee Janet Zichettella.
A source stated that Phone
World and other businesses similar
to it are a "thorn in the side" to
Ma Bell, “but they can't do
anything about it, because that
would be a monopoly.” At Olson

Winning five of the first six

Copy hditor

I usually hale to say “I told you so," but
I told you so In my
column last week I said, “Don't miss tomorrow’s soccer match against
Cleveland State."
Most of you didn’t take my advice. You missed the match by the
thousands unless, of course, you came disguised as empty seats.
What you missed was Buffalo’s 2-1 victory over Cleveland State,
the seventh best soccer team in the country. You also missed the
biggest win in UB soccer history. And forgetting all that, you missed
one hell of an exciting soccer game.
But you have another chance today. You can go see the soccer
Bulls play Canisius at Rotary Field at 4 p.m. Canisius is 1-2-1; Buffalo
is 2-2. Both teams are battling for the Big Four title. The two teams
played to a l-l tie last year, so each is looking to prove that it is
superior.
After the big victory over Cleveland Stale, the Bulls’ spirits have
been quite high. So high, in fact, that they might get overconfident.
“One of the things I've got to do now is bring them down," said Bulls
coach Sal Esposito. “But I think they’ll be okay.”
-

Weather wreaks havoc
Recently, the Bulls have also been having a little trouble in
practice. “We haven’t been having good practices lately because of the
weather." Esposito said. “It's tough to run in the mud. You've got to
be very wary of pulls, strains, twists and the like We haven't been
going full speed in practice."
Jim Rudolph, who can be the Bulls' most prolific scorer when
healthy (he scored a hat trick against Syracuse), hurl himself at
practice more than a week ago and had to sit out lor a while Although
his absence didn't hurt the Bulls against Cleveland Slate, they would
certainly like to have him back. Friday Rudolph reported that he was
ready to return to action.
The Bulls' leading scorer this year Iras been Mark Karrer. with four
goals. Karrer, a grad student, is taking advantage of a new NCAA rule
which allows grad students to finish their playing eligibility if they are
still at the institution at which they were undergrads.
Karrer is an adept dribbler and passer, and it seems that many ol
the Bulls’ attacks begin when Karrer gets the ball at midfield Today,
he will be guarded by Canisius star Fran/ Beckenbauer
Buffalo stars
Karrer is aided by speedy wingers Steve Feeney. Luis A/cuc and
Rudolph (when he is healthy). All of them have the knack of being in
the right place in the right time and have picked up many goals that
way. as evidenced in the Cleveland State game.
Buffalo’s defense which nearly collapsed towards the end of the
Cleveland Slate game, has looked extremely sharp on occasion,
especially in the shutout of Syracuse, is led by fullbacks Wain Reed.
Mike Allen and Alan Derner. Reid, who hails from Jamaica (the
Jamaica in the Atlantic Ocean, riot the one where you change trains on
the Lung Island Railroad), has been spectacular, clearing almost
anything that comes his way. Derner and Allen have been merely
steady and effective, if unspectacular
George Daddario. at midfield, also has been quite effective. His
specialty (it seems to me) is sliding to kick the ball away from an
opponent, or to protect the ball when an opponent tries to steal it
from him. Newcomer Ramsey Ouartey also looked very sharp at
midfield.
Celestial and Celeste
Freshman goaler Mark Celeste made several difficult stops in the
Cleveland Slate game, and looks like he could be one of the stars of the
future for the Bulls.
Despite topping a nationally ranked team, the Bulls will not be
ranked in the State’s top ten for a while, Esposito explained, because
the rankings are based on results within your Division, and the Bulls
have yet to play a Division III team However, for the lime being, the
Bulls may be excused.if they claim they are number one
Miscellaneous: Students will be admitted free to today's game
upon presentation of a valid ID card. After you've all enjoyed the
soccer game you might want to see the volleyball team's home opener
at 7 p.mjn Clark Hall.
Former Bulls ice hockey goailender John Moore is currently trying
out with the Chicago Black Hawks of the National Hockey League.
According to Buffalo hockey coach Ed Wright. Moore has an excellent
chance of making the team as a backup for incumbent Tony Esposito.
The baseball Bulls finally got to play Cortland after sitting for
twelve rain-filled days, and split a doubleheader there Wednesday They
won the first game, and almost won the nightcap after scoring four
runs with two out and none on in the seventh to send the game into
extra innings, but lost on an eighth inning Cortland homer.
The base.ball Bulls were rained out of a doubleheader against
Canishis on Friday, prompting Joe Ryan to speculate that the only
reason it rains is because the Bulls pul on their uniforms.
Don’t look now. but the first football game in seven years is only
five days away. Get your tickets free at 113 Clark Hall (9 a.m. to 2:30
p.m.) with your student ID. The Bulls have a three game losing streak
to end.
i The men’s tennis team has bla/ed to a six game winning streak, but
their toughest matches were over the weekend. They should be a cinch
to repeat as Big’Four champions.

Field hockey Bulls lose, 5
Alter being dominated by Brockport in the first
Buffalo's field hockey team came back with a
strong second half, but still lost the game. 5-0.
Brockport was ranked fourth in the slate last year
and it was evident early that Brockport was still as
powerful as they were last year.
Brockport controlled
the action from the
opening face-off and scored two goals, only a few
minutes into the game. UB made many mistakes m
their own end, including failing to clear the ball
when a Brockport player put it past UB's goalie Jean
Mane Neal off a scramble In front

Brockport's
well-disciplined
kept
pressure on the Bulls for the whole first half, and
scored its fourth goal on a penalty shot which Neal
had no chance on. UB was able to stir up very little

sloppy, but the second hall was a different story.

The (iolden I-agios opened up the second hull .is
strongly as the first and scored very quickly while
controlling play Then Buffalo started to play its
brand of ball, instead of Brockport's and the game
quickly turned around. IIB had much stronger

many shots and thus were unable to score Coalie
Neal also played very well in the second hall when
she handled twelve shots on goal and made some
tough,

close-in saves.

This year’s team has improved greatly ovei lasl

Betty Dimmick said that the second half ol the
Brockporl game was more an indication ol I'U’s
potential than the first hall As the learn plays more,
the coach feels that they will continue to impiove.

&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;

Soccer Bulls kick
their way to victory

Goliath has been slain
The soccer Bulls picked up their slingshot on Tuesday, fired it at
the seventh best soccer team in the nation, and then hung on for dear
life. They escaped with a 2-1 victory and what probably is the biggest
win of tiieir five year history.
The win was a very electrifying one for the Bulls, as Cleveland
State had entered Tuesday’s contest with an impressive 4-0 record,
including a win over St. Louis University, the number two ranked
soccer school in the nation. “I’m very ecstatic,” exclaimed coach Sal
Esposito. “We had everything to gain and nothing to lose.”
Bulls halfback Mark Karrer, who was All-New York State last year
was also very happy. “This was the biggest game of my life,” he stated
“To beat them after last year (a 13-0 UB loss] and after they beat St
Louis means a lot for our team.”
Displaying what a disgruntled Viking player described as “a very
fast game which is not our type of game,” Buffalo jumped out in front
and never looked back.
Bulls build lead
Fullback Mike Allan sent a long head pass to Steve Feeney who
was racing toward the Cleveland goal. Feeney’s scoring attempt was
blocked by Viking goalie Fred Bass, who could not hang on to the ball.
As a result, Karrer, who was following the play, booted the loose ball
into the Viking net. “1 just wanted to kick the ball as hard as I could,”
explained Karrer.
Six imputes later, at the 11:21 mark of the first period, Buffalo
scored again. Winger Feeney found halfback Luis Azcue and fed him a
perfect pass between two Cleveland players. Azcue broke away and
kicked a high shot over the goaltender’s arms to give the Bulls a 2-0
advantage. Cleveland could not find Buffalo’s net as they sent two
shots wide of the mark and the half ended with the Bulls ahead by the
two goal margin.
The Bulls played a different brand of ball in the second forty-five
minute session as they tried to protect their lead. “This was part of our
game plan,” said Esposito.
Smoking and buzzing
“They came out smoking in the second half,” said Feeney. “They
just could not score.” The Vikings may not have scored enough goals
to pull out a victory but they made things tough for the Buffalo
defense as they continually buzzed around the Bulls’ net. Gunther
Sheib picked up Charles Carey’s rebound and sent it into the Buffalo
goal to cut the lead to 2-1. The score came at the 59:52 mark, when
there was still plenty of time left.
Cleveland State continued to apply pressure but was stymied by
the Buffalo defense and the brilliant play of goaltender Mark Celeste.
After a shot had ricocheted off the goalpost. Celeste made an excellent
save on Carey as he kicked the ball through a maze of players. Celeste
came up with another good save a few moments later as a Viking player
broke in toward the net and sent forth a hard, low shot that Celeste
blocked as he fell to his knees.
Reasons for success
Buffalo was then able to hold off Cleveland State the rest of the
way and the jubilant Buffalo bench jumped for joy as the game-ending
horn sounded.
Esposito was pleased with the poise of his players. “We kept our
cool and didn’t get rattled. This was very important in that it helped us
protect the one-goal lead,” he said
Karrer and Feeney gave different reasons for the Bulls’ success.
“We just messed them up,” said Karrer. “Our defense was the key We
had four men back instead of three,” added Feeney.
The Bulls lost at McMaster University on Saturday afternoon The
final score was 4-3. Karrer, Feeney and captain George Daddario scored
for Buffalo.
The Bulls now have a record of 2-2. The next home game is
scheduled for Monday afternoon at 4 p.m. when Buffalo will meet
Canisius College.

An inquiry into the Buffalo Police Department’s
reported “90-minute delay” in responding to last
June’s rape of a 13-year-old girl has brought to light
a serious manpower shortage within the department
which has left police unable to handle numerous
calls at once.
The Buffalo Common Council, acting on the
request of Councilwoman Shirley C. Stolarski,
questioned police department officials about the
delay problem at a Legislative Committee session
Tuesday.

The council was originally supposed to hear
from police officials a week earlier, but Inspector
William J. Frawley was emmersed in teaching the
department’s new central booking system to the
rank and file. The new system, slated to be instituted
in early October, may worsen the delay problem if
additional manpower is not obtained, according to
police department testimony.
The council adjusted the agenda however so that
Mr. Frawley could be on hand to answer questions
espoused by Council members Stolarski and William
A. Price from the University district.

Help!
Officially, the discussion dealt with the
efficiency of the “911” emergency number
Inspector Frawley admitted that there are times
when the demand for assistance is simply too great
to handle. He aaaerted that officers try their best to

be at the scene of a crime and claimed that the
90-minute delay was actually between 35 and 40
minutes. In fact, he insisted that only 19 minutes
elapsed between the time the call came in and a car
was dispatched. However, he failed to take into
account any time lost by the caller not being able to
get through the busy “911” lines.
Frawley claimed that at times of manpower
training, community events such as the Allentown
Art Festival, the police must divert men and cars
from other precincts to the area of the event. Thus, a
lack of men and cars in some areas results.
More delays
Frawley saw the situation as a definite problem
and admitted similar instances of delayed response.
He said that when a number of calls are phoned in at
the same time, priorities must be set quickly The
rape victim situation was originally reported as an
attempted assault The rape would have received
prompt attention had it been described as a “rape,”
said Frawley. The inspector saw more manpower as
the only solution to the problem.

Another speaker at the meeting was police
officer Anthony Diamond of the tenth precinct. He
reiterated the need for more manpower and the
difficulty in setting priorities when more than one
call is reported. He further claimed that the delay
problems don’t only come up during big events, they
occur quite frequently, being most prevalent on
Fridays and Saturdays. Diamond pointed out the
cruel reality of the problem, recalling on August
night when eight calls came in to an officer at one
time. The inability to handle all the calls resulted in
the death of a man. Diamond told the Council.
Officer Diamond suggested a program called
“mandated manpower” as a possible solution to the
problem. It appeared to gain support from most of
the council and especially Price “Mandated
manpower” is a system that uses statistics of past
crimes to determine where and when most crimes
will occur. Officers could then be called in to assure
enough manpower for the high crime periods. Paying
the policemen would be the sole cost of the
program. Officers would be paid straight time, not
time-and-a-half for their overtime. Diamond claimed
that this type of program has worked for the fire
department, and would make the city safer for
citizens and policemen alike.
Serious situations
Officer Mark R. Stambach, business manager for
“Blue Line.” the Buffalo policeman’s journal, was on
hand representing the police department. Stambach
hoped the meeting would assert the need for more
policemen in the city, lie called the manpower
situation “critical” and added that there have been
instances when a citizen has called more than once
about a particular crime with the police still unable
to rescind within a reasonable amount of time.
Diamond said the Council’s help was needed
now in order to prevent further tragic incidences. He
further asserted that with the institution of central
booking, officers making an arrest anywhere in the
city will be forced to go downtown to charge the
offender This can cause only more delays
one
more patrol car will be unavailable in the city. On
Election Day. Diamond claims due to the need for a
policeman at each polling place. 85 percent of the
precincts will have only one patrol car.
Price suggested that the "mandated manpower”
idea be studied, especially by the budget director.
The matter was then tabled for two weeks when it
will be brought up again.
Police Commissioner Thomas R. Blair was not
present at the meeting, but was represented by one
of his deputies. This did not sit well with the council
members, especially Price who felt Blair should have
been present.

Amherst Campus

Needed shelters on the way
Bus shelters will be placed at two locations
the Amherst Campus according to Assistant
Director of Facilities Planning John Neal.

One shelter will be built at the Flint Loop,
the Norton-Capen-Talbert complex, and
another will be placed at the Hamilton Loop
behind Norton. “They have been ordered by the
Purchasing Department and will be standard

Vice President for Facilities Planning John
Telfer explained that the delay in bus shelter
construction is due to specifications concerning
their placement and the materials used to build
them. When asked about the cost of the shelters
Telfer said, “A barnyard figure would be 510,000

The
construction of the shelters has taken much

One student said, “It’s untenable for there to
be no shelters on a campus as exposed as this
one.” Shelters are not needed at the Ellicott
Complex because of the underground location of
the bus stop, and a wooden shelter already exists
at the Governor’s Residence Halls. One faculty
member commented, “If the shuttle bus system
is going to work some accommodation should be
made for shelters.”

Alert Bulls catch
RIT coach spyin

SA ELECTIONS
Student Senators

The offensive receiver coach of Rochester Institute of Technology
(RIT) was caught spying on the football Bulls Wednesday afternoon.

Buffalo Head Coach Bill Dando confiscated the man’s material and
ordered him off campus grounds.
The Bulls season opener against RIT is next week on Saturday,
October 8 at Rotary Field. The unnamed perpetrator was first noticed
by D,ando, whose Bulls were practicing near Acheson Hall. Dando
instructed defensive line coach George Carlo to investigate why an
unknown person was taking notes concerning the UB team. Carlo
ordered the defensive line, known as the “Bang Gang,” to circle around
Acheson to surround the suspect.
When Carlo confronted the RIT scout, he refused to state his
business or show any kind of identification. After claiming he was
diagraming plays fdr an intramural team he attempted to get away, but
ran right into 6’-4”, 245 lb. “Bam Bam” Finch. When the flustered
scout moved in the opposite direction, he was confronted by 6’4”, 230
lbs. Dave Florek. It was at this point that the entire Bang Gang
?
enveloped the intruder.

‘Shitting a pickle’
“The guy was shitting a pickle,’’ commented Carlo. Carlo and his
“Bang Clang” unit then escorted the perpetrator to the presence of
Dando. When the seventy squad members circled around the suspect,
he handed over twelve cards diagraming Buffalo pass patterns. Dando
then banished him from University property.
While it is not illegal to “spy” on another team, there is an
unwritten rule that the unethical practice should be neither done nor
condoned. If this unorthodox and atroceous act has any effect it will
serve as one more reason for the Bulls to win their first game since the
V
program was dropped in 1970.
i
The fact that an RIT coach would drive sixty miles to view a UB
practice indicates just how concerned their coaching staff is about the
Bulls. ‘This is not very ethical,” commented Dando. He further added,
“I can’t believe that they’d stoop that low. We haven’t gone into their
backyard.” Dando concluded that he had every intention of calling
RIT about the episode and pursue the matter. Meanwhile! when the
Bulls and RIT knock heads next Saturday, you can be sure that the
“Bang Clang” will be there to greet ’em.

The problem wilh histories is that they arc written in a vacuum.
Attention is focused on main characters and little concern is shown for
the masses of people who form the backdrop against which histories
are written. The victims of the massacres at Song Mi and My Lai. the
brutal deaths of thousands of people throughout Southeast Asia, and
the unprecedented level of political repression unleashed against the
American anti-war movement set
the stage for the Buffalo Nine. It
was against this bloody backdrop

�Non-surgical birth
control being tested
Clinical testing of two new non-surgical methods of birth control,
one for men, one for women, is now underway in Philadelphia and
New York.
A reversible female sterilization method has been designed by Dr.
Robert A. Erb, physical chemist at Philadelphia’s Franklin Institute.
Erb has just been granted a patent for improved procedure and
apparatus for the method, which has been used successfully on
laboratory rabbits on a laboratory scale. Preparations are being made
for testing on women within the next three months, according to The
New York Times.
Erb’s method is based on a hysteroscope (which includes
fiberoptics and a light) that is inserted into the uterus to permit
viewing of fallopian tube ends. Catalyzed silicone is injected into the
tubes and becomes a rubber-like solid within a few minutes, thus
blocking the tubes and preventing conception.
Each silicone plug, however, contains an integral tip and ring,
which can be used with a special instrument at a later date to withdraw
the plugs and restore fertility.
A patent was issued to Erb in 1974, but it specified the use of
preformed plugs rather than silicone. Promotion of the invention has
been delayed pending this new patent. Franklin Institute has secured

Two students denied

undergrad trsnscripts
The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit has ruled that
a private college was not required to furnish transcripts to two
students who defaulted on their student loans and received a
discharge of them in bankruptcy proceedings. The case was initiated
by two students who graduated from Webster College and applied
for the transcripts to enter graduate school.

Webster College refused to provide the transcripts, citing a
provision in the student handbook which states that a transcript
cannot be released until all accounts are paid.
The appeals court, which vacated the judgment of a lower
court, said the Bankruptcy Act prohibits creditors from using legal
processes to institute or continue any action to collect debts as
personal liabilities of the bankrupt, but that private actions that
may have adverse consequences upon the bankrupt are not part of
the policy contained in the present law.
A concurring opinion by a member of the appeals court panel
observed that Webster College merely had declined to confer any
additional benefits, other than the knowledge already obtained by
the students, by furnishing the transcripts. The opinion noted that
the college’s action did not force the debtors to pay their
discharged debts, and that the property they obtained - their
education
could not be taken away or lost. The opion further
noted that the college should not be required to enhance the
benefit by furnishing a transcript when it had not been paid for its
services.
The appeal court’s opinion was handed down Aug. 24 in
Robert Girardier et at v. Webster College, Docket No. 76-1922.

Students compete for SA
dormitory Senate seats
The Student Association (SA) Senate elections,
which will fill six commuter Senate seats, four
dormitory Senate seats and the position of Director
of Academic Affairs, are underway and open to all
registered students at this University.
Chairman of SA’s Elections and Credentials
(E&amp;C) Dave Fischler explained that the election is an
important vehicle for students to voice their opinion.
Once elected, according to Fischler, the Student
Senate will meet October 5th to begin formulating
the rules and regulations for students to follow. The
Senate is also responsible for setting up task forces
to tackle numerous problems.
The new Director of Academic Affairs will
“coordinate academic clubs and activities and
oversee them,” said Fischler. The job also entails
heading an academic task force to improve
standards, and sitting on the committee which
charters the Colleges.

Administrative officials! making 2500
investigatory phone calls las( weekend, fount! various'
reasons why many students did nyl return to this
University this semester.
President Keller authorized Director of
Instructional Services and Testing. Dr. Alan Kuntz.
to conduct the phone survey. "The president was
concerned with the number of students not
returning to this University." said Vice President for
Student Affairs Dr Anthony Lorcn/ctti. Kelter said.
"At a lime when everyone is concerned with a split
campus and bussing, you know good and well that
there are problems you have to compensate for." He
referred to counseling and advisement as examples of
services designed to case the transition.
Motivated by this split and other factors such as
a decline in Millard Fillmore College enrollment,
approximately ten to twelve people made calls to
students who were enrolled in the Spring semester
last year as lull lime day students but did not return.
The process began Friday night and continued
until Sunday afternoon. Approximately 1 500 ol the
2500 non-returnees were reached.
Results of a preliminary report given to Ketter
showed lhal 222 students had graduated or fulfilled
their requirements over the summer, thus accounting
lot their failure to appear.
Approximately 341 students said that they did
not return for “academic reasons." Ketter explained
that academic reasons included various factors. Of
the 341 who cited such reasons. 80 had not been
accepted into their chosen department. 45 claimed
this University’s workload is too heavy and 60
reported that the program in which they were
interested was not offered here Other reasons
stemmed from particular programs being more
attractive somewhere else (53 students) and being on
an official leave of absence (37).
288 students cited "economic reasons" as the
major factor in their decisions. Of these students.

than return to school.

Of the 263 former students who answered
"personal reasons." 57 got married. 45 moved away
from the Buffalo area, and 19 admitted the weather
was a deterrent. Keller said he was very surprised
that so few students rejected this University because
of the weather.
Oliver reasons included 34 students claiming
"health reasons"
either family or themselves and
58 noting the University atmosphere was not
condusive to their studies. Only 8 people refused to
answer at all. Keller slated. “I expected more to
convey dissatisfaction with the University being too
big or not sympathetic to their needs. I was very
pleased with such a low number."
The overall conclusion reached by officials was
lhal the phone survey yielded some very positive
results. One factor that pleased officials was that one
quarter of the students who cited academic reasons
were either taking a year off or were enrolled
somewhere else for a semesicr and thus planned to
return. Ketter claimed. “The people lhal were
spoken to were very pleased that we were
conducting this survey and were generally pleased
with this University."
University officials generally believed the
method of a phone survey to be tar superior to
sending out a form letter, which “people would Just
throw out." according to Keller. "The feedback on
career patterns was worthwhile." the President
observed, "but to date no comparative studies have
been examined." Keller expects year-to-year data
comparing non-returning student figures to be
included in the final report.
"One further point." Keller said, "is to
remember this survey was taken of students who
chose not to return." Right now the Public
Information Office is planning to conduct a selective
sampling of people on campus. Currently, they are
stopping students, asking them how they feel about
this University, and taping the information.

To the Editor:

To the Editor.

Jerry Rubin was a guest speaker at this
University last Sunday. He spoke of his former
revolutionary days, and at a new spiritual revolution;
based on a three-part plan of health, sex life and
success. He also said that the people of the SO’s were
in a fog. I believe that the people of the 60’s were in
a “similar” fog, and so too, are the people of the
70’s, for that matter.
The people of the SO’s were “well intentioned”
humans, in pursuit of their American dream (made
so clear through national advertising). Along came
the “children” of rock and roll, the ones who spilled
their guts in learning to grasp an emotion. They
realized that some vast mistakes were being made.
The people of the SO’s believed that life is sacred,
but only to a point. The “children” of the 60’s knew

simple. Do people remember what fascism and

whether UB bold* dames 6n the high holidays, but is
merely wring this issue as an excuse for the age-old
practice of denouncing Jew*.
Mr. Roman does not discuss the issue in a logical

It is quite apparent from Mr. Roman’s latest
letter that his anti-semitism clearly expounds his
ignorance. Mr. Roman has clearly chosen to ignore
all of the letters in favor of having the Jewish high
holy days off. Instead Mr. Roman this time has
dearly offended the intelligence of any reasonable
human being by labeling a whole group of people, a

understand why The Spectrum would print
irresponsible
and offensive material. Besides
Roman’s letter being an insult to a person’s
intelligence, it is also clearly racist, narrow mindejl,
anti-scmitic, and bigoted. I wish that The Spectrum
staff would read letters a little more carefully and
decide on theii merit before they are printed. And as
far as Mister Roman’s “friends’’ are concerned in
regards to his recent poll... it is a known fact that
people will stay with other people who share their
own beliefs, morals, values and basically their own
opinion. Therefore, nothing plus nothing still equals
nothing.

Take a stand
To the Editor:
Re; Pat C. Roman’s latest letter (which serves
only to “flog a dead horse”), I too resent the fact
that the academic year got off to (at best) a sluggish
start because of the days given off for the Jewish
High Holy Days. However, 1 applaud the Jewish
students and the dedication they must have shown
for their faith. What I really resent is that Catholics
and other Christian religions do not take so vocal a

stand for their faith!

Name withheld upon request

Think before acting
To the Editor-

In response to the letter of 9-28-77 written by
the executive committee of IRC with regard to the
sheriffs I D. cards, let me state the following:
The editorial that was written in The Spectrum
which put down the concept of the sheriffs l.D.
cards didn’t take away the opportunity for students
tolget those 1,0. cards. Students, if they are foolish
enough, can still get down to the sheriffs
department and get their official sheriffs l.D. card;
however, there should be no reason in the world why
one should want or need to do so. Anyone with an
inkling of an Idea as to the concept surrounding civil
liberties and legal rights would know better than to
approach a few enforcement agent and virtually offer
his or her fingerprints. (Not five minutes prior to this
writing, I spoke with Dan Kinley, IRC president and
I asked him if he was aware that students were
requited to give a thumbprint in order to obtain an

I join with you hi denouncing the reductionistic
by implications racist) Newsweek cover
featuring the Bakke controversy. I, however, must
dissent from your position that there is any less
resistance to women’s civil rights than there is to
black civil rights. 1 think if you would have analyzed
the situation more- carefully you would have seen
how far off the mark this is. The backlash against the
feminist movement has been strengthening not
weakening in the past few years. As two cases in
point I would offer you (I) The success of the
stop-ERA forces on the state ERA question in
November 1976 and (2) the cutback on federal
medicaid money to finance voluntary abortions. 1
think that if you are truly serious in your support of
women’s rights you would recognize that the
opposition to these rights is very real and very
serious. It is only with this recognition that you can
begin to bring about women’s rights.
As a white woman and a feminist I am not
about io say that women*'; oppression is any greater
than black oppression. I think that the “my pain is
greater than your pain’’ game is a very dangerous
game. The game is dangerous because the pain, the
oppression it generated from the same place. The
game is dangerous because it has oppressed groups
competing against each other rather than working
with each other to help alleviate each other’s pain.
The game is dangerous, also, because the various
problems of society are tied together in a vicious
knot. For example, the problem of cutting back
medicaid abortions hits black women much harder
than white women because in proportion to their
percentage in the population black women are much
more likely to be poor and therefore be unable to
afford safe, legal abortions. Poor white women, of
course, have just as many problems paying for
abortions as poor minority women.
It is clear that the Bakkr case will have drastic
impact on the struggles of both blacks and women
and it is therefore equally clear that blacks, women
and those who generally support the struggle for civil
rights should join forces and work together for

cards; however, IRC had membership on the
committee that designed these cards, and while
admittedly their recommendations were ignored, to
some extent, they should have been socially sensitive
enough to try to get the University tp change the
format of the cards (I understand that this is now
being done.), rather than otter the sheriffs
department information which is best kept private.
IRC is an organization of excellent potential,
but that potential can’t possibly be fulfilled until the
executive committee learns to think before they act.

to

Steve Martin
does the name ring a
bell? If not, let me describe him by saying
that he's a "crazy guy." A "ramblin' kind
of guy"
and last Friday, September 23,
he rambled into the area to do a show at
Melody Fair in North Tonawanda.
The
evening began with a fresh
approach, in the form of a film starring
Buck Henry and Teri Garr as patrons of a
restaurant where Steve works as "the most
absent-minded waiter." ,lt was an amusing
piece, although much of the effect was
marred by the movement of the screen on
Meloday Fair's circular, revolving stage.
The stage supposedly turns so that
everyone in the audience will be able to see
everything, which, of course, means that
no one sees it well. When the eight-minute
film was over, stage hands had to take the
screen down before Steve came on, causing
another short intermission and creating a
rather disturbing lack of continuity.
Then came what everyone had been
waiting for
Steve Martin, live. The
well-dressed, date-night, SRO audience
gave him a standing ovation as he walked

Steve Martin, in a series of bits and
monologues, creates a character that is
totally his own, and is just as totally a
fiction. His style includes a deal of mime,
or at least the knowledge on his part of the
importance of the body and the face to
comedy, as well as the joke itself. Every
moment, every expression, is planned to
give an effect, and none of it was lost on
the fanatical crowd. He was "into it" all
the time, never breaking character, creating
a highly polished show that, though
humorous,
somehow left one feeling

vaguely dissatisfied.
Although the revolving of the circular
stage .nearly made viewing the movie a
farce, Steve himself performed well in the
round. He circled the stage several times,
albeit his leaving the microphone gave
those of us under the balcony a tough time
hearing. He also performed his various
"magic tricks" (such as the "napkin trick"
and the "candle trick," featuring Bernie
the candle) once on each side of the stage

for easy viewing.
AH of Steve's "funny comedy gags"
were done, including "Happy Feet," his
Carter impression ("Doesn't Carter look
like the type of guy who should have a
banjo?"), "getting small," bunny ears,
balloon animals ("This is V.D.! If you see
this on a toilet seat, DONT SIT DOWN!"),
juggling, the arrow through his head, card
tricks ("King of Hearts, come down and
dance!"
which, of course, it literally did)
and, for an encore, "Excu-u-use ME!" But
they were all performed word for word,
exactly the same way as the first time you
heard them, or the second, or the third . .

different, and never did we get any insight
into the "real Steve Martin" (if there is
one). The only time he toned down the
character he was playing was while
performing a beautiful and well-executed
banjo solo, during which the crowd got a
bit restless. If one was there for sheer,
cuf-and-dried comedy and nothing else
(like the female I chanced to sit next to,
who informed me that "the man is insane"
at least ten times in the hour and fifteen
minutes he was on), they were probably
well-satisfied. But if one expected a bit
extra from a live show, as did I, they most
likely found Steve Martin to be a slight
disappointment
a "crazy guy" who'd
better get some new material soon, to
prove that he's not just a flash in the pan
or he'll burn out sooner than the rest of us.
John Sebastian began the show, with an

He also included some bits that would

necessarily have been censored for the
tube, such as a discussion of the "fart
layer" ("It's way up there, and that's why
we have to protect the ozone") and the
gameshows he's done, "Celebrity Assholes"
and "Bowling for Shit." However, since
he's gained most of his popularity from
T V, it's obvious that he needn't resort to
such humor to be successful.
Altogether, little of the act was new or

he did do a good encore piece on the
harmonica. He seemed to sense that the
crowd was mostly just interested in seeing

the Center in Delaware Park. For two weeks, audiences sat

near the lakeside stage listening to the saxophone riffs of
the lyrical and jazzy score, dancing to the combo that
Leslee himself put together. This small group, keyboard,
sax, percussion, and bass, produced sounds that swayed
with the trees and sang with the wind.
To celebrate the re-affirmation of a productive
working relationship, Leslee is creating a piece for the
Center for Theater Research that will be an experiment in
combining music and theater.

Greek mythology
Ray has called his new piece a "concert accompanied
by a play." That is an interesting phrase, but what does it
mean? Well, assisted by Stephen Porter, Director and
Choreographer tor the piece, Leslee has devised a scenario
based on tales from Greek mythology. This story line will

be the springboard for improvisation by a company of
actors, dancers, singers, and mimes. These performers will

submit their creative abilities and help to form the piece.
Lcslee's music, in turn, will be a foundation for the actors'
stage work. The best of the musical and theatrical
improvisations from six weeks of rehearsal will be
presented to the public.
"The music happens when I get in sync with a play. It
just happens," said Leslee. "With this piece, I am making
music visual."
It is appropriate that the first offcing of the
University's theater season will be a premiere production.
The freshness of style and composition of Leslee's work
should be a refreshing experience. Myths: The Ttpestry
will open at the Harriman Library Studio, Main Street
Campus, running from October 24 through 30, and again
from November 4 though 7.
Ray Leslee, once again sponsored by the Center, w'l
make the music and we, again the audience, will
have the
pleasure of listening-watching it.

The Battle of Chile was made
by some of Chile's best film

agreed to finance the film for $1,000,000. Like

He certainly doesn't look the part. He has none
of Woody Allen's self-parodying looks that scream
neurosis at a glance. And he doesn't have that
intense, eay-you-alive look in his eye
that dead
giveaway that this is all a set-up for a joke that Mel
Brooks has. Yet David Zucker, along with his
brother Jerry and their partner Jim Abrahams, may
be the newest king of Hollywood writers.
They are the creators of Kentucky Fried Movie,
number five last week on the list of the year's top
grossing films, and opening in Buffalo on Oct. 5.
"I don't think we could make any other kind of
film," Zucker said in a solo interview this week. And
indeed, as it happened, for the last six years as the
Kentucky Fried Theatre, featured in a small theatre
that the writers built themselves in the back of a
bookstore. "We were students at the University of
Wisconsin at Madison," he continued. "We started
the theatre not because we were theatre majors, but
because we had a common sense of humor."
Then, what began as a funny idea among friends
evolved into a serious business proposition. A year
after its opening in Wisconsin, the Zuckers and their
friend moved to Los Angelos, hoping to find a larger
audience for their brand of far-out theatre. Critical
reviews and, more importantly, box-office returns
were good. "We weren't sure how it would be
accepted," he said, "but it did real well. After that,
we started thinking that if our comedy worked, why
not write for T.V."
—

—

United Artists signed
They appeared on 'The Tonight Show" and

artistic control over the movie. "We wanted to
handcraft our bits, and since we weren't starving, we
were in no hurry," he said.
The advantages of doing a movie instead of
television, they soon found, were its endless
possibilities, "Anything that we can imagine, we can
do," Zucker beaned. "In movies, everything is
realistic." Naturally, they were delighted. "We start
out seriously, then take things one step too far
Movies are the best medium for that," he laughed.
The result was a series of twenty-two vignettes
satirizing movies, T.V. programs, and commercials,
and other aspects of contemporary society. The film
is aimed at a young audience; an audience that, like
the Zuckers, grew up on television. "We're really just
like anybody else, we were T.V. watchers. We've just
taken everybody's fantasy of scenes they'd like to
see and put them on film."

T.V. sex
One of the most popular sequences, called
"United Appeal For The Dead", features Henry
Gibson warning viewers of the "five early warning
signs of death." "When the end comes," he explains,
"do not attempt to operate heavy machinery."
In another sequence, a young man and woman
having sex in front of the television set attract the
attention of a newscaster and three technicians, until
everyone, on theT.V. and in front of it, gets into the
act.

"The Midnight Special" but were disappointed with
the results. "It didn't come off on T.V.," Zucker
said. "We weren't allowed to have any sets on the
Carson show, and our kind of comedy doesn't work
just standing out in front of a curtain." They
decided then to turn down all T.V. offers and
concentrate making a movie.
"The first time we went around to studios, we
had no chance. Such a low budget film was really
under radar screen. If you're unknown, they say to
do it yourself," Zucker continued

Zucker is very pleased with the
performance
of Kentucky Fried Movie and,
apparently, so is United Artist Studios, because they
have already been signed to do another movie. "Alot
of the actors from our theatre went on to become
television writers. They would come back and
wonder why we were still running our theatre when
the mowas much better doing television. In the long
run, the money is better in film, and it more secure.
Most T.V. writers rent their Mercedes for thirteen
weeks at a time."

FOR THE FIRST TIME IN 3 YEARS

B.B. King and Bobby Bland made their second 1977 Buffalo area
appearance this past Sunday at Meloday Fair. Playing in the theater in
the found (though the stage had to be rotated manually), they put on
thoroughly convincing and enjoyable show of modern blues. With a
warmly responsive and mostly black audience, they proved that the
blues has appeal to young and old, black and white.

Bobby Bland opened after a couple of poorly mixed instrumentals
by his band. When Bobby came up, the band sounded much crisper as
Bobby opened with a bluesy reading of the country tune "Tonight I
Started Loving You." Bobby went
a number of his classics,
including the hard hitting "Ain't That Loving You," with his effective

use of a hoarse cry. The ballad "I'll Take Care of You" drew strong
response of recognition. "I Pity the Fool" was followed by 'The Soul
of a Man" from his last album and then took the audience back to
1955 with "That's the Way Love Is." A medley of "It's Too Late" and
Stormy Monday" featured some beautiful guitar from Johnny Jones
whose catlike tasty playing always adds to Bobby Bland's show.

After an intermission and "Honky Tonk" by his band, B.B. King
and "Lucille" took over the stage. Having the presence of a blues
preacher and pounding his fist to add emphasis to a vocal line, B.B. did
a pretty conventional set of songs including "Caledonia," "How Blue
Can You Get," "Why I Sing the Blues," and 'The Thrill is Gone."
While there were no surprises, B.B. sang and rapped and at times his
rapport with the audience ressembled a revival meeting. B.B. is
fascinating to watch whether introducing a song with a rap or singing
"How Blue Can You Get" for the zillionth time and still getting an
incredible reaction to the line "I Gave You Seven Children and Now
You Want to Give It Back."
During 'The Thrill is Gone," Bobby joins B.B. and they do a

medley of blues classics before "Let the Good Times Roll." After
Bobby leaves, B.B. does a ballad capping a very satisfying evening of
blues.
A few observations are in order. The turnout for both of B.B. King
and Bobby Bland's concerts this year still prove that blacks will
support the blues when they have an opportunity. This is remarkable.
Expecially when black radio stations program very little blues. Further
support of this was evident when Ted Taylor recently appeared at
Ericson's Lounge to capacity crowds.
It's goodThat B.B. and Bobby are making regular appearances
around Buffalo. Also, in the last few months, live blues in the Buffalo
area has increased dramatically James Peterson returned to Buffalo
after a couple years' absence. Shakin' Smith has been at the Bona Vista
for many years and The Bona will start presenting out-of-town blues
acts when they bring master of slide guitar J.B. Hutto and his House
Rockers from October 12 through October 16. The Belle Star has been
bringing in acts like Muddy Waters and James Cotton. They will be
returning there in October, and Albert King will be making a rare
Buffalo area appearance at the Golden, N Y. spot in late October
James Peterson will be opening his "New Governor's Inn" hopefully in
late October and also will be bringing in acts from out-of-town. In
terms of blues, the Buffalo area now seems to be in a better position
than a lot of places. Hopefully, continuing interest in blues as reflected
by support of such concerts
the one B.B. King and Bobby Bland gave
a
healthy local blues scene.

.

1973, the government got slmost
50% of the vote, indicating that
despite Chile's grave economic
problems Allende was not going
to be voted out of office
in
fact, he was gaining support. The
right-wing opposition turned to
conspiracy and subversion, hoping
to create enough chaos that the
army would step in and overthrow
the government. It was well
known that the army did not like
Allende and his socialist ideas
anyway; they were looking for a
pretext to get rid of him. Since he
had been legally elected and the
army was supposed to abide by
the Constitution, conditions had
to be set up to make the military
coup look "respectable". The idea
—

was to carry out enough sabotage
and terror so that it would appear
that there was a total breakdown
in law-and-order, thus the army
would be "forced" to take over.

Economic sabotage
This strategy worked well. The
months before the coup were
filled with right-wing terrorism.
Military officers sympathetic to
the left were assasinated, electrical
towers were blown ijp, railroad
tracks destroyed, and snipers fired
on leftist street demonstrations.
The police, sympathetic to the
right, did nothing to stop it.
Economic sabotage was prevalent,
and the black market expanded as
a way to avoid government
controlled prices. Soon it became
difficult to buy common items
except at black market prices
poor people had a more and more
difficult
time buying
basic
necessities. Long lines were a daily
struggle. The right-wing did their
best to keep goods off the legal
market in order to disrupt Chile's
economy. They also promoted
—

from the CIA for those businesses
which were closed down. Later
the Senate Intelligence Committee
confirmed that much of this
money came from the CIA. The
CIA spent $11 million to finance
right-wing activities in Chile
during the Allende government
(1970-73). This was a tremendous
amount
money
of
in
an
underdeveloped country, where
dollars were extremely valuable as
"hard" currency. The CIA also
helped train right-wing terrorists,
both inside Chile and at special
camps in Bolivia.
Smuggled footage

The Battle of Chile shows all
this. It shows the activities of the
right as well
as the huge
demonstrations by the left in
support
of the government.
Although clearly pro-Allende, the
shows everything
that

happened, both on the right and
on the left. Differences in strategy
within the left are explained the

how to prevent a military coup

Stillwater (Capricorn)
first,
At
Stillwater appears to be a
conglomeration of rock cliches. The name suggests
associations with Stephen Stills and Creedence
Clearwater Revival. The lead singer has a
nondescript, Type A, rock voice. The songs have
titles like "Sunshine Blues" and "Rock-n-Roll
Loser."
All true, but the cliches are very well produced
and skillfully combined. Stillwater does not yet have
a distinctive style
their sound resembles that of a
dozen other bands in their genre, although they have
one cut, "Universal Fool," that could have been left
over from Kansas Leftoverture
but this is a solid
album, excellent for parties and not bad for just
listening, either, straight rock n-roll with no
(frills, pretensions, nonsense).
Of the individual cuts that stand out in my
mind, "April Love" is a ballad, as nice and soft as
the name implies; the only accoustic song on the
album and a welcome change of pace. "Mind
Bender" appears to be the single from this album; it
features a conversation between the lead singer and a
guitar languishing in a pawnshop, who sounds like
Joe Welsh. My favorite on the album, "Sam's Jam,"
is a country rock tune with some nice slide guitar.
The talking guitar in "Mind Bender" claims "My
daddy was a Gibson/My mother was a Fender." Well,
Stillwater sounds like their daddy was REO
Speedwagon and their mama was the Doobie
Brothers; and yoy could have a worse parentage than
—EM
that.

Michael Gregory Jackson, Clarity (Bija)
Clarity is a Cheshire wind flight of pervasive will,
a penetrating masque of auric splendor and indigo
simplicity Michael Gregory Jackson is an acoustic
shock wave deep in electric vitality His guitar has
graced such places as Sam Rivers' Studio Rivbea
(The V/Hdflowers series on Douglas) in New York
City. Mow, in this, his first LP, Michael pours upon
our shores the curve of his highly consummating
skill, from the traditions of flamenco firestrum
("Prelueoionti") to the floating collectif of the
opening tune, a soft vocal nevertheless intense with
stark poetic feel.
With Michael on this voyage are fellow Music
orators Leo Smith (a brassy sunshine), David Murray
(a tenor conspiracy to unmask the over lustered as
the true low class), and Oliver Lake (a most fluid
multi-reed threat) Masters all, from the darting duel
(guitar-soprano sax) of "Oliver Lake
to the
synthesizer like protiayal of electuc guitar on the
communal tribunal of "Clarity (4)." Folks' Music.
For all of us, Clarity is an edict: Grow to the

playfully in serious swing, from the fable like quality
of the waltzing "Little B's Poem" to the romping

working with for the last three or four albums, grows
more effervescently together by the moment; both
in their explosively beautiful expression (witness, for

Prodigal Sun

example,

the velvet tide of drummer Eddie
Marshall's "Sundance Knows"), as well as their
individual composing abilities (like pianist George
Cable's urban street blues, "Why Not"). Emanual
Boyd continues his plasmatic dove song, as his
piccolo-like flute in "Til Then" shows. Guest
Hadley Calimen adds clean volcanic tenor on
"Knucklebean," while a lone drifting whisper soft on
strong winds offers a sweet Naima-like opening for
"Sundance Knows," courtesy of trumpeter Freddie
Hubbard, who appears on his old record label for the
first time in years. His work here will bring to some
overdue tears. It's nice to see Freddie revive his roots
in more than a V.S.O.P. museumwork. One can see
more than a trace of all the Dialoges of old, and his
Brownie-like memories on bassist James Leary's "So
Far," So Good speak for themselves. Miles is Miles,
and Freddie is Freddie. Don't forget. You won't
want to forget this one.

From Here to Eternity (Casablanca)
What is this? Kraftwork and Donna Summers
giving head on. Yes, I think so. Whatever . . . the fact
of the matter is that it's not really the dregs but
think of it this way: How much of Kraftwork's
"Autobahn" were you able to take without falling
asleep? Exactly: it's pretentious, repetitious, and
those vocals. Blah
I'll take Vangelis over this stuff any day of the
week.
Giorgio Moroder plays all the electronics on the
album which was recorded in Munich, Germany, and
boy he had better stay away from Klaus Schulze and
Edgar Froese. Not that funk and electronics don't
mix, but in this recording, it sounds like two robots
doing the bump. Come off it.
Leave the cerebral and entertaining electronics
to the hip people like Schulze, Froese, Fast, Eno,
Teitelbaum . . . now, now, now wait a minute. —BN
Giorgio,

Stomu Yamashta, Go Too (Arista)
Go Too perhaps should be called gone too far
The overindulgence in funk and poor vocals on this
album is terrible.
Where the first Go album presented an
interesting combination of Stomu's jazz-rock fusion
with Steve Windwood's fine singing and keyboards.
Go Too provides very shallow listening pleasure. Al
Dimeola, Klaus Schulze, and Michael Shneve remain
from the original Go, but to no avail Klaus Schulze
provides the music with only adequate color tones,
while Al Dimeola gets off several fine solos on "Seen
You Before" and "Wheels of Fortune."
As fine as a percussionist Yamashta is, he's not
doing much here. As a matter of act, his arrangments
need to pack it up.
Before I destroy the album, there are some
redeeming
factors.
For example, the string
arrangements of Paul Buckmaster and the admirable
drumming of Michael Shneve

But, in the end, Yamashta is to blame. This is
truly mediocre.
Hello Steve Windwood, wherever you are

Genesis, Reflection
Rock Theatre (Fontana)
This import released over a year ago is not just
another Genesis greatest hits package
I know what I like (In Your Wardrobe)" and
"Watcher of the Skies" are not what they seem
They are, in fact, alternate takes of the original
varsions recorded In 1972 and 1973.
"I know what I like (In your wardrobe)" is
definitely better than the original. The synthesizer
tracks are mixed at a higher level which make the
song much more intense. "Watcher of the skies" is
really a treat. The classic beginning of course with
Tony Bank's playing mellotron is deleted and the
song just starts with Peter Gabriel just coming in on
vocals. The real treat, however, is in the ending
where Bank dismisses the mellotron. Instead, this
turns it into a type of jam with Steve Hackett
droning away and Gabriel singing while it fades off
Definitely a classic version.
—

Also included on this LP are previously released
classics such as "Harold the Barrel," "Harlequin,"
"The Fountain of Salmacis," and, of course, the
Genesis standard, "Supper’s Ready." Truly a must
for all Genesis fans

�The Grateful Dead, Terrepin Station (Artista)
What's not a better time to seek the advice of Mr. Natural, than
when in need of a little of that old cosmic poop ah.
The address is 315 Bowerey. His flophouse is located above a small
rock club. On top a matress ripped and torn sits the old geezer himself
perk and to the point.
Ml
so you want my opinion of Terrapin Station do ya? Well
o.k. Have you heard it? If you haven't it's just as well, because it's the
most boring piece of huckapoo that I've been subjected to since I was
strapped to a chair and forced to watch the movie version of War and
Peace. You have no idea how dreadful it was."
"You know of course, that this just has to be the last stop. I mean
like -who-i is this choo choo onno ca*' :t quits, daddy-o. I have no use
tor this advice, because I've refused to indulge in any of this nonsense
since the Flamin' Groovies released Shake Some Action and spread joy
through my life. I've learned a thing or two from the old days in San
Fransico, but you
what's your excuse. You've been riding that train
for soooooooo damn long, it's getting to the point of hypocracy. How
can you tolerate such a wimpy excuse for music as this. Really this is
so anemic. I thought my tonearm was gonna get up and go donate a
few quarts of ketchup just to quicken the old pulse. It would have
probably resulted in failure anyway."
"Excuse me I didn't mean to get so worked up. Ya see. I've been
hawing doubts about the Grateful Dead ever since Bob Weir went to the
butcher's down on Front St. and his tail chopped off. Whapppppl Just
like that. Here today, gone tomorrow. Christ, and I'm so sick of
watching all those jappy muffettes acting like headless chickens, just
because he's cute. What's that gotta do with muzak. Besides he's gotta
be just about one of the worst howlers rock end roll ever produced.
Screaming Lord Such is the best comparison that comes to mind, but
at least the good Lord had enought sense to surround his ugliness with
talented backup musicians like Jimmy Page. Go Jimmy I"
"It's not exactly as if Weir is obsessed with the material he's
performing now. As for Garcia
well Anthem of the Sun is a great
album to accompany a number and that's more his fault than anyone
else's".
"This is making me miserable. First of all this isn't The Grateful
Dead. I haven't figured out who the imposters are yet, but I can tell
you for a fact that ever since the Skull and Roses LP, Garcia and the
entire ryhthm
including that horrid cretin, the rest of the group
thinks of as a piano player
have been living the lives of beggermen
and thieves beyond the grate wall, if you catch my drift. I think
Stanley Augustus Owsley the III chartered the flight. Best joke he'll
ever play
as for Bob Weir, he ran off with this catastrophe named
Donna-Jean Cheeses-C. Now he's doing a rhinestone act under various
pseudonyms. I don't care."
Really, ya know what it is? The Grateful Dead are just like heroin
addiction. When it's fresh, it's the best, but when your income can't
satisfy your cravings, the only thing you can do is go down with the
ship. Let me t? 1 you it's no joy ride and in the end you might as well
go kiss a moving four ply because there's just about nothing you can
do. Please, have relief) There's always cold turkey and with the Dead
that should be as easy done as said.
"Sunrise" would make a great test for a Name That Tune
you'd
contestant.
Given
a
blind
fold
never
test,
ever,ever,ever,ever,ever,cver pinpoint that it was The Grateful Dead. It
has that same pseudosophistication lately possessed by Fleetwood Mac.
As for "Dancing In The Streets", it just isn't like the good old days,
when the Dead were able to twist songs into tidal waves of sound. They
should have left well enough alone, but the disco tinges should provide
further evidence of where their heads are at. "Samson and Delilah"
cuts the mustard, but even that needs a shot of geritol."
"Side-2 is a genuine comedy. Capt. Trips does the one-step,
two-step, horizontal mambo. Can't you just picture Jerry baby, in one
of his usual catatonic states singing "Hernando's Hideaway" all the way
to the bank? California will never live down the shame, which is on of
the reasons that prompted my move to the Big Apple. There's more
action here anyway. This is hopeless; they sound like older farts than

Carol* King, Simple Things (Avatar)

Nararro, Listen (Avatar)
Simple things mean a lot to Carole King. To
prove this, she has recorded a new album. Simple
Things with the permanent backup band she has
.recently acquired, Navarro. Carole makes her point
by becoming simply boring a traumic setback for an

illustrious and admired artist.
Soon, after the Carole King release, her band
sends out a debut album, Listen Well, I listened and
I thought I was hearing a "do-it-yourself" hypnosis
record and not the one by Navarro. I must keep this
album in mind for the next time I have trouble
getting to Snoozeland.
The Carole King lowdown is that she married
the co-composer of a few of her songs on Simple
Things, Rick Evers. She's obviously very happy for
she preaches this universal love for all of mankind
and nature to hear, but frankly, my dear, I don't give
a damnI
Maybe you're getting the impression that I don't
care for this record. Carole always made me feel this
romantic uplift and she was accomplished at
combining folk and pop without sticking in all this
contrived philosophy on the new album. When I first
heard "Hard Rock Cafe" as a single on the radio, I
wanted to throw a hard rock at my tuner. Wow, I
thought, this has got to be the corniest Carole King
song I have ever heard.
Now that I possess Simple Things, for the most
part, the results get worse. The tunes are rather
meaningless, even if Carole attempts to resurrect
them hopelessly. Only on "You're the One Who
Knows” and "Time Alone" does she succeed to
avoid an excess of idolism and capture a suitable
melody. On the former cut, Carole moves more into
the rock mode with appropriate guitar solo
accompanyment; the latter track is the model for
what the rest of the album should have been a love
.

—

song which is memorableand inviting.
The bottom of the barrel is scraped on the final
song, "One." Coming across like a Norman Vincent
Peale reject speech, Carole tells me a few things I
never knew;

He is one she is one,
A tree is one the earth is one
-

-

—

the universe is

one.
/

am one

—

we are one.

Whatever kind of infatuation kick Carole King is
on, it is harming her music. When she went to
Colorado to find a supporting group of musicians,
the Rocky Mountain air must have had some sort of
cerebral effect. Perhaps, it is the arrival of these
musicians, who have been living in Colorado all their
lives.
Navarro, as they call themselves, presents a
unique comparison between their two works, on
Simple Things, and on their first record, Listen. It
seems that the same gushy symbolism which flawed
Carole's album floods the Navarro solo album. It.
doesn't take a Wasserman test to connect this
contagious disease.
Overall, Listen is a poor attempt to record
country-rock love songs. Sometimes, it even amazes
me how the lead vocalists, Mark Hallman and Robert
McEntee, actually remembered the tunes to sing,
although I'm giving them the benefit of the doubt
that they are tunes. I'm sorry, but there are surely
more bands which deserve recording status than this
one. Navarro needs plenty of help before they go a
second round.

On the back cover of Listen is the perplexing
comment, "No Sugar or Preservatives Added." No
talent or thought either, boys. What Carole King saw
in them is a question which she might be asking us
on her next album.

�George Jones, I Wanta Sing (Epic)
George Jones is everyone's favorite singer. He
could sing any kind of music but he chooses
country. Fine. Beautiful. Great. His voice can go up
high and down real low. His throat can pinch a note,
and yea hic-up for ya if you think that's corny
country. Tammy Wynette's X. And he drinks to
excess, George Jones is THE singer these days to
admire. He must have many doubts lurking about
the underside when he hears all the talk and titles:
"Mr. Country Western Music" or "King George."
That kind of good natured, good ole boy ribbing can
get to a fella sometimes when more good natured
ribbing is not what you need. Jones drinks enough
for Tammy to want to stay away from him when
he's in his spirits. Even though she loves him. A lot
of heart and soul goes into a George Jones song.
More than any other singer, he has inherited the
Hank Williams mantle of my dear drunk country
uncle who sings songs of a man torn and shattered
by life's experiences. I just admire him SO MUCH
for surviving and still putting out records that are
not only listenable, but damn good. For many that is

Karla Bonoff (Columbia)
This is not another Linda Ronstadt. Ronstadt,
while unarguably possessing one of the great voices
in pop, is a frilly, floaty, frivolous package of cloying
femininity. Liken better to Laura, when Nyro was
the empress of roamin' female souls. Karla Bonoff
well knows how to write an emotional song, but is
fortunately and knowingly unromantic in her antics.
Bonoff plays simple piano solos or uses straight
forward band arrangements. The low key used by
producer Kenny Edwards is appropriate, letting
Bonoff's piano have equal share with her vocals,
which probably could not carry the compositions on
their own.
The listener is at a primary disadvantage, since a
multitude of current female singers have grabbed the
and
best tunes (notably "If He's Ever Near
'Someone To Lay Down Beside Me"), while Bonoff
was pursuing her own contract. But as Edwards
electrifyingly directs Waddy Wachtel's leads, the
album gains control and ground to provide a singular
visage for the artist. Bonoff does not belt, she
doesn't wear black halters or slug down Tennessee
sour mash No. 7. But she does herself good by
letting her songs work themselves through, rather
than working out on them herself. "Lose Again" is
almost hesitant in its delivery, with a shivery
breathless catch in the chorus, over that is more
convincing in its realism than a full sound a thousand
extra takes of a thousand years of voice lessons
might bring. I liked the more masculine Kenny
Edwards-Glenn Frey-J'D' Souther back up on "If
He's Ever Near" better than any combination of
,

Wendy Waldman,

Marie Muldaur, or the other usual

sopranos,

If as a lyricist Bonoff does not make any
earth-shattering discoveris about the ways and woes
of love, at least she doesn't blind us with obscure
romantic revelations. She is direct, passing up the
verbal pyrotechnics for an easy lyricism. Note "Isn't
It Always Love":

Isn't it always love that makes you cry
Isn't it always love that takes the tears away
Isn't it always love that takes the tears away
You wouldn't have it any other way.
Bonoff's best song is "Someone To Lay Down
Beside Me," and absolutely searing composition that
makes this an unmatched debut by any performer
this year (except perhaps Terry Boylan). Its
description of sexual pause without true satisfaction
is adept in its unforgivingness;

Your love is a common occurrence
Not like love that I feel in my heart
Still you know that maybe what I need
Is someone to lay down beside me
And even though it's not real
This album may not set any new standards, but

Chris Hillman, Clear Sailin' (Asylum)
Bernie Leadon/Michael Georgiades Band, Natural
Progressions (Asylum)
Firefall, Luna Sea (Atlantic)
Lord, what the Flying Burrito Brothers hath
wrought! Chris Hillman and Gram Parsons said,
"We've all got wheels/to take us all away." Gram's
wheels carried him out on one of those 20,000
roads. Chris was left to fill the gap between Bernie
Leadon, Mike Clarke, and Sneeky Pete. "Little
Ricky" Roberts sang high and sweet then, just like
Gram used to. He weren't no grievous angel, though,
and about a hundred bands and tons of sessions
later, it seems that neither Chris nor Bernie nor Rick
nor Mike can come up with too much that's
definitive these days. Hillman has the best sense of

humor (sarcasm with bitterness), and his Clear Sailin'
is better than either Bernie Leadon's Natural
Progressions, or the second from Rick Roberts and
Firefall, dubiously entitled, Luna Sea. But even
Hillman isn't able to lose his chains of convention.
Firefall's first record was admirable; Roberts'
soft voice contrasting Larry Burnett's sinuous leads
and gruffer vocals. "You Are The Woman." which
helped turn the album gold, was light, but well
enough balanced by percussion not to detract from
the album's overall polish. Bernie Leadon made four
platinum albums with the Eagles, but left in an
electrical shock. Now both are aimlessly unanchored
to any rock capable of giving either a base. While
Leadon's partner (Michael Georgiades) breathes and
rotates in some personal cosmosphere, Leadon is left
to flounder somewhere between ear-soothing vocal
delivery and choking lyrics. Glyn Johns is at it again
with his echo. He would d~- well to give a little
Stones-Who treatment to the American boys.
Similarly, Luna Sea has the Lazy ebb-flow of vocals
that sound good, and such an incredible lack of
whole that it's shameful The same juice that one
would get giving Firefall's first a run through the
Veg-O-Matic,
Hillman is able to avoid his ex's errors, perhaps
(ironically) by never having to follow up hits passed.
Manassa was as much Hillman as that blonde guy.

�Pete Townshend and Ronnie Lana, Rough Mix (MCA)
The first recorded work by Pete Townshend in almost
two years is a message to his fans that he is alive and well.
Since Who By Numbers, there has been no new music, no
interviews, not even any dirt in Rolling Stone. So with
reasonable excitement, I ran to the turntable only to find
that this LP was so bad that I had to take it off the platter.
Rough Mix is the shared creative effort of Who
mastermind Pete Townshend and ex-Small Faces guitarist
Ronnie Lane. Who devotees should not mistake this for
the solo album that still is to come (an LP with the guitar
wizardry on Live at Leeds but with good sound on the
record). These two fellow Meher Baba (does teenage
wasteland sound familiar?) followers have cut a simple
who
album which is tightly produced by Glyn Johns
else?
The opening track, "My Baby Gives It Away," is a
Townshend tune reminiscent of "Squeeze Box," only
more explicit lyrically. As this song is playing, the first
problem with this album arises. One picks up the cover to
see which artist plays what instrument on a specific track
and realizes that there really is no way to tell. All we know
is that "Ron and Pete play various Acoustic ft Electric
guitars, mandolins &amp; bass guitars, banjos, ukeleies ft very
involved mind games." This doesn't sit too well as there
are other musicians listed and credited properly, according
to each song, yet we have to ponder if that bass is Pete
playing on Ron's song, or is Ron playing both guitars on
his own songs, or is it Pete playing hit own leads, or is it
-

‘

Ron playing

.?

'

..

The title track is the third tong to be heard. Eric
Clapton is the featured lead guitarist (but with whom is he
trading those leads?) and by the time this song is over one
is expecting bigger and batter things. And that's when the
bottom drops out
The very next track it* Ljne number called "Annie,"
and this song is illustrative of the problem with the record.
"Annie" is such a "nice" tong that it&gt; almost diabetic. In
contrast to "Rough Mix" which precedes it "Annie" just
doesn't seem to belong. It's analogous to following
"Contusion" on Songs In the Key of Life with "Sugar,
Sugar," by the Archies. Verry ssweet, if you catch my
drift. A type of musical vacuum it the result of such an
overdose of sugar, so one is driven to pick up the album
cover again only to find that Eric Clapton is once again
playing, this time on the six string acoustic guitar, and that
four other musicians (not to mention the omnipresence of
Pete and Ron) are featured on this cut And one realizes
that it doesn't matter because this particular song is so
beat that all four former Beatles could be singing in the
background and it still wouldn't help what your ears have
already told you.
So, after two more undistinguished songs, the first
side is over, and you can't put your finger on jUst what it
is, but already impressions are forming. But, as the man
says you have to play the second side, right?
"Misunderstood" opens side two and this is
Townshend's best work on the album. A reggae style,
catchy tune, this showcases some of his bestvocal work to
date. He sings in a previously unheard deep, breathy voice
that captures your attention immediately. And the lyrics
are among the best on the album. The song finishes with
Townsend stating cryptically, "I'm such an ordinary star."
Some may argue that this is an extension of Who By
:
Numbers, but who would want tp?
1
-

And the beat goes on like this for. the final four songs;
nothing special, and a few question marks that would
make most Who fanatics shake their heads in amazement
as to why Townshend would get involved in something like
this in the first place. But I digress.
In total, th. are five new songs by Pete Townshend
to satisfy the yearnings of any Who freak, but...? Ronnie
Lane either wrote or co-wrote five songs (the tide track is
a Townshend-Lane effort), and the last song on the album
is an old Holyfietd-Williams tune, 'Till The Rivers All Run
.*

Dry."

At this point, if one's patience has not run dry, one
picks up the album and tries to figure out what went
wrong. One just knows that his isn't what it should be,
that it's almost as if it's two separate groups renting space
on the same piece of wax.
One though, however subtle, does come into mind
concerning the nature of the vocals. Townshend sings his
songs. Lane sings his and there is nothing unusual about
that. What is wrong is that there is the absence of shared
vocals, two part harmonies, or anything that gives a group
feeling, as the four pert harmonies of the Eagles or Crosby,
Stills, Nash and Young.
Rough Mix is less a collaboration between the two
featured artists and more the result of one person going
into the studio, cutting half an album and having another
group coming right in and finishing off the balance of the
recording tape. The only reason I know this isn’t so is that
each side has a mix of both types .Of songs. To put it
bluntly, half of the
sounds like Vi/ho By Numbers, and
half of it sounds like open mike at the Central Park Grill.
This isn't to say, "stdy away," but. If you have yet to hear
Live At Leeds, you should pick that up instead and listen
to the Tommy medley on side two. On the other hand, if
you collect albums and this one interacts you (it originally
interested me a lot. but that was before I listened to it),
pick it up as the type of record diet rounds out your
collection. Otherwise, be forewarned: the type of mind
games going on between these two are far beyond you and
me. And the next time Pete (r) Townshend releases an
album with another artist, I won’t get fooled again.

lyrical *olo, although an occasional squeak is heard. Then
it is Walton's turn to respond, plucking long runs backed
by mellow chords. Mobley's tenor takes us back to the
head where Higgins exchanges twelve bar phrases with the
horns. "Sabia" has Walton, now on electric piano, backing
Mol bey who flows gracefully through this beautiful ballad
which is unusual in that it hat no repeats. Walton's "House
on Maple Street" was inspired by a friend's house. The
introduction, which features David on soprano, seems like
a welcoming. Once we are inside, Davis entertains us with
hit best effort on the album. Too many soprano players
try to "get" the "Coltrane sound," but Davis has his own
distinctive style, and shouts of approval are heard in the
background. Higgins' crisp cymbal work shines through
during his only solo of the album.
Side Two opens with still another version of "Theme
From Love Story." The rhythm section is especially tight
on this, the only trio cut. Walton's solo is creative, but I've
heard this tune done too often. Mobley does his best
blowing on Gershwin's "Summertime." He explores every
area of his horn with long, melodic, firey phrases. His own
shouts of approval come frequently between phrases.
Mobley and Higgihs trade fours nicely to dose this tune.
The album doses with "Early Morning Stroll," a happy

governments.

Countying the city
Bo/cr finds in (he discord be)ween city and county governments
an appalling blindness to the needs of both. “The city and county are
interdependent." she maintains. “The city is the heart ol the county.
The county must have the ability to initiate policies which will help
revitalize the city while at the same time pursue regional cooperation in
solving problems which affect our entire region."
A case in point concerns the existing policies regarding county
roads and highways. The county Transportation Department maintains
ail roads up to the city line: no further. In the same manner, the
county allocated funds fur the construction of Rich Stadium (in
Orchard Park) and another suburban campus for trie Community
College (HO, while reneging on an earlier promise for a new
downtown ECC campus. Bo/er responded to this failure by the county
as a missed chance to spark the downtown economy, saying "All those
student and university oriented services and businesses that spring up as

V;'
i result.. .**
......

What the govern meant
These matters of priorities. (Itc duplication of effort and services,
the separate plans, and division of funds lead Bo/er to call for a
re-evaluation of county government as it exists in this state. "Because
of changing economic and social conditions in our county, wc must
constantly evaluate what we arc doing." she said. “We must
periodically update our government. Wc must avoid perpetuating
patterns that are divisive, encouraging the cijy and the county to go
their separate ways."
II the effort is made to organize trie County as a. truly
metropolitan county, as Bo/cr believes it must be. then w|tal remains is
to define the precise function of the county level of government. To do
this. Bo/er js calling for a public dialogue involving state and local
officials, as wcH as concerned citizens, to discuss questions: “What
powers arc derived by Eric County? Arc they sufficient?” If not. Bo/cr
says the public should know beforehand.

Friday, Sept. 30 at 7:30 pm

Nationalism
Bo/.cr is concerned nul only about (tie area involvement of the
County Legislature, but also its efforts on a national level for tire
benefit of the county and its people. An exciting idea involving the
creation of an urban National Historic Parle here in Buffalo was first
introduced by Senator Daniel Moynihan. and Bo/er wasted no time in
carrying the project further. She has contacted Senator Jacob Javits
Who has indicated he also supports this proposal. “The park could be a
part of an Olmstcad Historic National Park System and would include
Buffalo's Delaware. Front, and Marlin Luther King (formerly
Humboldt) Parks.” she explained. This would put Buffalo in line for
national park funds that she feels have been disproportionately
concentrated in the West for loo long. In this manner, Bo/er said
Buffalo would benefit by being relieved of financial burdens, local
taxpayers would benefit by being able to use the facilities their dollars
have been supporting, and the parks themselves, now “becoming seedy,
will have the protection of comprehensive long-range planning rather
than short-sighted park project plans by local officials.”
This new awareness of parks, in addition to preserving their
security and beauty, could be a solution for Buffalo's economic woes.
Bo/.cr believes. “A national park site in the Buffalo area would spur
tourism.” she said, “and tourism is a high profit industry. Package (not
commercialize) what rich history we have into an exciting product.
Buffalo has the potential. Put creative people to work.”

The new pnreedure involves injection of ethanol and formaldehyde

testicles
which cause scarring in each duet lo prevent passage of
sperm into the seminal fluid.
The method requires neither surgery nor surgical instruments,
according lo chief investigator Joseph t. Davis, chairman of the
College's Department of Urology. It lakes no longer than 10 minutes to
complete, and is expected lo prove as reliable and safe as vasectomy,
with fewer disadvantages.
Dr. Ckivis notes that permanent contraception by chemical
vaso-injection may also be more acceptable lo the man who wants
sterilization but avoids vasectomy because he mistakenly associates this
form of surgery with castration.

crap came out. It's just a different card. It’s simply
not the card we approved."

by John H. Reiss

Membership
Meeting

Wednesday, Sept. 28th at 4 pm

The question concerning whether or not student
officials approved the design for the controversial ID
cards has been shrouded by a veil of uncertainty as
students and administrators involved in last year’s
decision have offered conflicting reports on the
matter.
Amidst vigorous and consistent protest by
students throughout this University directed towards
what they feel are useless cards, University
administrators have steadfastly maintained that
approval was given by students involved in the

decision.

Assistant Director for Systems Management
Richard Canale claimed that the cards were designed
by art students and that the final draft was approved
by a committee comprised of both students and
administrators. In addition, he said that Student
Association President Dennis Delia gave his personal
consent to the design in May.
Delia flatly denied this, saying he was not
involved in the decision. “1 had nothing to do with
it,” he said. “The decision was made before I took

office.”
Shuffling the cards
Lee Scott Peres, a student representative on last
year’s ID card committee, claimed that he did in
fact, receive a “rough draft” of the proposed card,
which he and SA executives Steve Schwartz and
Steve Spiegel approved. However, he said that draft
included what he termed to be “all the vital
information one would assume would appear on an
ID card.” Peres explained that the student-approved
rough draft included a computerized strip for library
use, the date of birth and a signature.

“It was designed to be the most profitable and
useful card possible,” Peres explained. “Our only
quarrel with the card was that it didn't have enough
numbers for SA elections. We asked them to change
that, they did, and we approved the card. Then this

Assistant to the President Ron Stein and
Director of Orientation James Krakowiak. both of
whom were on the committee were unable to

explain why the draft might have been changed,
claiming they were not involved in the final decision.

Director

and

Assistant Vice President for Housing and Auxilliary
Enterprises Len Snyder, principles in the decision,
were unavailable for comment.

Not for Pub
Canale explained that date of birth was omitted
from the ID cards because the University had no
information relating to that data and. in the past,
had relied solely on the word of students. Since, he
claimed, there is no way for the University to
validate the information given by students, officials

felt it best to omit the date of birth. He added that
students' addresses were left off the cards because
“kids change their addresses all the time."

Canale said that the card was designed to serve
the purposes of the University. He claimed the card
should identify students as a member of the
University so they may utilize various facilities and
services of IRC, housing, food service, the library,
and athletic events. He felt the cards should not be
designed for the purposes of check cashing or gaining
entrance to the Pub.
A new ID card committee co-chaired by
Krakowiak and SA Executive Vice President Andy
Lalonde, will meet tomorrow for the first time. The
committee will explore the feasability of designing
and issuing new cards by next semester.
Krakowiak explained that its members will
attempt to design a card which is more responsive to
the University community, because, he said, "There
is nothing on the present IDs.” He said he would like
to see the date of birth (if possible), space for library
use, and a place for food service to appear on the
card. He felt certain that signatures would be added.

the latter point was “most critical and will be

The report is divided into three major concerns:

The University administration and graduate
students have moved one step closer to bettering
relations by agreeing on a set of guidelines governing
the responsibilities of Teaching Assistants (TA's) and
Graduate Assistants (GA’s).
In a report issued last week, an eight person
committee comprised of graduate students and
faculty members formulated a set of rules
concerning the role of graduate students in the
University. This marks the first time that the
administration and students have collaborated on the
long standing problems of assistantships.
Although the report is not considered to be a
ma)or breakthrough, it is, according to the chairman
of the committee, Charles M Fogel, “A positive step
in understanding each other’s needs, concerns, and
responsibilities."
Fogel said,“There will be no problem in
approving the report,” which has been sent to Vice
President for Academic Affairs, Dt Ronald Bunn
Bunn has in turn forwarded copies of the report to
deans and provosts.
Fogel felt that graduate students can become a
valuable asset to the University, and observed that it
may prove to be a difficult job to fully integrate
grads into all factions of the University system.

Foundation set
Another committee member who spoke on the
report was Graduate Student Association (GSA)
President R Nagarajan. The GSA leader also
characterized the report as having “tremendous

NFG rate hikes
The Student Wide Judiciary ( SWJ) may fall
The SWJ, comprised of undergraduate, graduate,
behind in this semester’s case load because of a and Millard Fillmore College students, hasn’t had a
backlog of pending cases, according to Assistant Vice single case this year, according to Neil Haberman,
presently the only student defender for SWJ.
President of Academic Affairs, Ron Doleman.
He said the backlog, a slowdown in the issuing
of subpeonas from last semester’s cases, has two
C1U9CS.

One reason for the backlog, said Doleman, is the
absence of a complete Student Wide Judiciary.
“Applications are still being accepted for SWJ
positions, which will then be geared towards
interviews to fill the empty slots,” Doleman said.
Once the positions are filled, an orientation of the
new justices will take place, “which won’t take long
as soon as we set it in motion,” according to
Doleman.

The second reason for the backlog is the fact
that a check-up on the status of students involved in
cases from last semester, determining whether or not
they attend this University, is necessary. “We don’t
have jurisdiction over non-students,” said Doleman,
“and right now the flies at Admissions and Records
are still incomplete.”

Haberman said he hopes he will have more help in
defending students. Once the prosecuters begin
handing out subpeonas, Haberman said, “there might
be more of a backlog than there already is.”
Once a student is subpeonaed to appear at an
arraignment, he has the option of going to Group
Legal Services for help. Group Legal Services will
then assign an SWJ student defender to his case.
However, since Haberman is the only student
defender at SWJ at this time, he will have a
considerable amount of trouble in getting to all the
cases once last year’s cases are taken care of.
One student whose case has been pending since
last semester said, “1 don’t know what’s going on.
I’m tired to waiting for things to happen.”

In response to a questions concerning how long
the student body will have to wait for a completely
functioning judical system, Doleman said, “Things
will be moving right along very soon, especially after
the positions in the Judiciary are filled.”

The New York Public Interest Research Group (NYPIRG) has
begun auditing the National Fuel Gas Company’s (NFG) financial
records, and, according to NYPIRG’s Western New York Coordinator
Ken Sherman, "There are no real developments yet.” He claimed that
his organization has just been gathering information.
NYPIRG has recently received permission by the Public Service
Commission (PSC) to audit NFC’s records in search of “hidden
profits” and had been successful in pressuring the PSC to hold hearings
on NFC’s recent 2.2 percent rate increase request.
The hearings, which were held on Tuesday of last week, were
unprecedented in that requests for an increase of up to 2.5 percent are
usually automatically granted by the Commission. The increase, which
has been protested by consumers and other groups like NYPIRG, has
been successfully delayed for another four to six months. This delay
has already saved the public an estimated $2 million in excess fuel
costs.

Permission to audit NFG’s records was granted as a result of
NYPIRG’s charge that the NFG had reaped windfall profits last winter,
as brutally cold temperatures sent gas costs soaring $63 million over
previous years. In addition, the company did not pay wages to
thousands of employees who were on strike last winter.
The auditing, which has been funded in part by the Buffalo City
Council and the Erie County Legislature, has only reached elementary
stages, according to Sherman. “Right now, we are in the process of
recruiting people to do the actual auditing,” he said. “This week we are
signing contracts with consultants.”
Door to door
Sherman, who is confident in NYPIRG’s ability to delay the
people showed up, and about 70 people testified against NFG’s
exorbitant poeple showed up, and about 70 people testified against
NFG’s exorbitant costs last winter.” According to Sherman, the Labor
Party was the only group at the hearings that advocated the rate hike.

Sherman claimed that NYPIRG will continue its door-to-door
outreach program in the hopes of gaining more support by the public
in the form of signatures, saying “We hope to turn in another 10,000
signatures protesing NFG’s rate request.” He is confident in NYPIRG’s
ability to gain support of the public because, he said, “One out of
every four consumers we contact through the outreach program voices
a complaint about their bills.”
As a final thought about the action, NYPIRG may take action to
help consumers fight the rising cost of fuel, said Sherman. “If there is a
rate increase, we are thinking of organizing a county-wide strike on bill
payment on the anniversary of the blizzard, January 28.”

Hi

Nuclear ignorance

Opponents of nuclear power plants are gearing up for another
occupation of a proposed plant in Ontario. Inspired by a similar, well
publicized protest in Seabrook, New Hampshire, this latest
demonstration against nuclear power adds an international dimension
to an already heated battle between concerned environmentalists on
one side and nuclear energy porponents, often allied with governments,
on the other.

The nuclear power issue can be reduced primarily to a discussion
of risks, and thus to a discussion of unknowns. Environmentalists are
not willing to risk the as yet incalculable dangers of nuclear power and
power companies, along with state and federal governments frequently
are. Each side has its experts to testify before various committees that
his employer both knows, and is telling the truth. Clearly, there is
nowhere near enough objective research completed on the real risk
factors involved. There is also not enough information about how
Americans feel, as a whole, with respect to nuclear power.
Individual communities are usually quite happy to approve zoning
for a nuclear power plant since the enormously expensive facilities
often shoulder the majority of the town's tax burden. So while these
municipalities enjoy all the benefits of the plant, they are more than
willing to share the possible condequences of a nuclear disaster with
other communities near the plant, or others along the same ocean.
They are also not opposed to shipping the deadly radioactive wastes to
30 minutes
other areas for burial, such as West Valley, New York
-

from Buffalo.

Realistically, too much money has been spent thus far on nuclear
power to even dream of its going away. Before more funds are sunk
into plants and reactors, wide-ranging, exhaustive research must be

To the Editor
On October 12, the Supreme Court will hear
arguments on what has become the most
important civil rights case since the 1954 decision
outlawing school segregation. What is at stake? Allen
Bakke, a white male, has filed suit against the
University of California Davis Medical School
challenging the constitutionality of its special
admissions program for minority and women
students. Bakke claims the school’s failure to admit
him as a student is “reverse discrimination.” Though
the situation remains that there is no possibility of

undertaken to both evaluate risks and develop responsible methods of
dealing with wastes that will remain with us for generations. Waste
research is vital, not as an endorsement of the future of nuclear power
but as a realization of the extent of the waste problem that is here
now, this very minute, in places such as West Valley.

Da, nyet —too much

It is heartening to hear of Rachel Carson College’s recent grant
from the government to research the recycling of nuclear wastes.
Meanwhile, however, more plants are under construction and a bill
proposed in Congress would make it easier to obtain nuclear power
plant building permits. Bureaucratic efforts must be channeled into
more research, instead of increasing the critical need for that research.
What governmental officials, utility companies and the American
people need to develop is the courage and honesty to say, "We don't
know.''

Being your basic “socially conscious” college
student of the ’70’s, I have developed in the last few
years an acute awareness of ways in which my
purchasing habits reflect sympathies I have for
certain persons less fortunate than myself. For
instance, nary a head of lettuce unblessed by the
mark of the Phoenix has made its way to my salad
bowl. Fortunately, my deep appreciation of hops,
barley, and malt has precluded any potential conflict
arising from imbibing the products of the infamous

Vote

The positions open to election are important because each is a
branch of student power. Power can be wisely used or blatantly
abused, depending on who is elected. Read the candidates' for the
position of Student Affairs Coordinator statements in this issue of The

for the one that makes the least sense. You never know. But please,

I wish to comment on your article, “Oh God
a Mystery,” a superficial and immature piece of
journalism which, I doubt, reflects the feelings of the
student body as a whole. In framing the questions
you asked students, you failed to make an important
distinction.
The existence
of God and the
significance of religion
may
to
be

synonymous questions. Yet there is a difference.
Religion refers to the Church, its activities, and the
way in which individual experiences have become
institutionalized

ideologies. In this regard, the Church is no different
from other of man’s institutions

programs,

Recently 1 have seen several posters around
campus about overseas study programs As one of
last year’s SUNY students abroad, I may be able to
assist students who are considering this program
SUNY has programs in several European and
Middle Eastern countries. 1 was one of the 16 SUNY

students at The Hebrew University in Jerusalem,
Israel (there were three students from UB), We had
our own SUNY advisor in Jerusalem, who helped us
with any problems, and gave parties to
celebrate
American holidays, such as Thanksgiving. She was
given a budget that helped us pay for field trips
throughout the country. It was truly the most
fantastic year of my life.
If this sounds appealing, 1 must caution you
about one thing. Out of all the SUNY schools that
participated in this particular program, only UB had
no concern for the welfare of its students. All other

SUNY schools sent their students pre-registration
and housing early enough for them to register with
the rest of their university. All school newspapers
were sent regularly (some schools requested a small

C'hurch, and is as much a problem today as it was for
St. Paul. The content of the Church's message

is
understood first in terms of personal experience.
One can have a strong personal faith and be critical
of, even alien to, the organized church. In the age of
abstraction and uncertainty in which we live, no

of students. As everyone else, we were dissatisfied
with the new ID card and felt that Sheriff’s cards
were the best alternative. We feel that students
should have been able to decide for themselves if
they wanted a Sheriff’s card or not. Many people do

not have another source of ID. So by your editorial,
you took away a chance for many to get proper ID.
We feel the editorial was unfair to us, the Erie

great lengths to get this service brought on campus.

Sloppy mail service
To the Editor

1 have been a student at UB only since the
beginning of this semester and already 1 have had
several pieces of mail and a package lost or misplaced

UB Mailroom.
It seems that even the mail that somehow or
other finds its way into my mailbox has been sent
four or five days previously. Whereas, the post office
usually delivers our mail in two to three business
days, our mailroom is apparently treating our mail
with disregard when you consider that my bank had
to send me three sets of checks for only one of them

to reach my box after it had been mailed seven days
prior. In addition, in attempting to trace my checks,
I called our mailroom only tj receive the response
that central receiving is responsible for this package.
After calling the central receiving number given me
by the mailroom, I learned that they don’t handle
this type of student mail.
I am extemely disheartened at the way in which
my mail has been handled and in general, the manner
in which the mailroom operates. I only dread the
thought of years of service of this caliber continued.

I would appreciate an explanation from anyone
on why a large, state subsidized university cannot
hire American, English-speaking teachers. In French,
my first class for the semester, I was confronted with
an Oriental teacher who had difficulty conversing in
English. (Note; The teacher spoke fluent French, the
problem was imparting the knowledge. 1 changed my
schedule and now I’m taking French 8:00 in the
morning.) Then upon entering a math class in which
I was absent for the first session, I asked a classmate,
“What did I miss” The response was laughter
Another student said, ‘There’s nothing to miss.” A

minute later 1 understood. My teacher did not speak
one work of intelligible English. Absurd but true!
The class was a farce. (Note: 1 switched my schedule
to a night course; once again the teacher speaks with
a foreign accent.)
Wc are now learning with a handicap. Why?

Aren’t our courses made hard enough without
adding obstacles? Or is this supposed to be a
challenge? Are our own teachers and students less

but
capable and qualified at teaching? 1 doubt it
even if that was true, I would learn with much more
ease for there would be no language barrier.

overbearing group of individuals, or were the
holidays given just to get them off the university’s

When I wrote the letter on the appeasement of
the Jewish minority, I did not expect the response I
got. I’m glad apathy has returned to where it
belongs: whoever cares where that is!
“Name Withheld” (Monday, September 26) was
one of few who was daring enough to speak out
against the minority. “Name Withheld,” 1 salute you.
I noticed that the Jews who wrote back only
mentioned their own holidays. In their typically
self-centered manner, they ignored other people’s
feelings and felt they had the right to their days off,
but the hell with the rest of us.
Why would a university give in to such an

back?

Tost Watergate morality

And just so that those Jews who wrote back
insisting I was wrong know, the majority of people I
talk to agree with me. When you give in to one
minority, you have no right to not give in to the
others. And why shouldn’t this be.
No one should be given into, Jewish holidays
should be for Jews, and school should continue on
these days with or without the school’s Jewish

population.
I await comments.

To the Editor

So Bert Lance has resigned. This country is in
desperate need of intelligent and competent leaders
in government. Mr. Lance seemed to be this kind of
a leader as you said in your editorial, “Anyone who
quits college to work in a bank to support his
pregnant wife and in a dozen years becomes
President of the bank must be smart and dedicated.”
Mr. Lance’s performance earlier as part of Jimmy
Carter’s administration in the State of Georgia also
demonstrated his talents.
All agree that the members of government
should be honest and above suspicion, but this is
going too far. Mr. Lance’s charges dealt with things
that happened before he took the job as OMB
Director, so why should he have been forced to

resign? These accusations of dubious and illegal
banking practices were not serious enough, in my
opinion, to justify his being hounded out of office.
Also, most observers felt he was doing a good job for
Carter.

Finally, one must ask this question: What was
the benefit of the whole Lance affair? It cost a man
his reputation, the OMB a good director, and Carter
his close friend and trusted advisor. Also, it seems to
me that a successful businessman would have to be a
fool to come to Washington and have to undergo
such treatment. I don’t think there are ten people in
the whole Senate who can really pass the test of the
“Post Watergate Morality.” And 1 wonder how many
people in SA could survive such scrutiny?

the suggestions are received, they submit the list to the University

The University Council, an official group, does research into the
geneology and personal history of the people whose names were

they made to the University or community.
When the research is finished, the Council submits its list to the

from throughout the state, the Board chooses its preference of names

The Board bases its decision on the contributions a person made in

Buffalo Courier Express. Clemens Hall now houses the faculty of Arts

said Thurston.

Many people feel that the University is not making the shift to
Amherst as publicly known as it should be.
One returning student explained, “I went to class in Hochsletler
Mall and as I talked to people around me, I found out that I wasn’t in
the right place. That’s when i found out that Hochstelter was moved
out to Amherst and the old building was renamed Wende.”
In a random sample of students, the majority did not know the
reason behind the name changes. About 45 percent knew of the
changes because they read about it “somewhere” or because friends
had told them.
Most students, when asked what they thought of the namechanges, expressed a general att'tude of confusion.
Lori Morrow, a senior, explained, “I don’t mind the name changes,
but nobody notified the students at all. The University just switched
the names and never gave the reason why .”
“Changing the building names is about as constructive as the new
ID cards,” was the opinion expressed by Robert Gross, a sophomore.
Many more students felt that it was a waste of energy and money
to switch names. They also believed
that it would seem more
traditional for a building to keep ihe same name as long as it reminds
standing.

This school is becoming too

UUP to discuss its
chapter’s priorities
Union of University Professors (UUP) member. Gene Grabmcr, has
submitted the following list of objectives to be presented at a meeting
today at 4 p.m. in Room 101 Baldy Hall (Kiva) as topics for discussion
that wil I eventually lead to a final list of priorities for this Chapter ol
UUP.
1. A growing university, able to serve all residents of New York State
irrespective ol* incomes, and a growing faculty and staff that will
provide a future for graduate students in a spirit of affirmative action.
2. Statewide action programs, involving NYSUT, AFL-CIO, legislators,
and other forms of community support to defend the SUNY graduate
programs.
3. Similar statewide action program to reduce tuition to students.
4. Cost of living escalator clause, plus reasonable salary increases.
5. Continuous probationary contracts for faculty and professional
staff, with termination for just cause only, and permanent appointment
at the end of this period.
6. The unit of retrenchment shall be no narrower than a department,
with grievances able to go to binding arbitration.
7. No loss of professional rank and permanent employment with job
changes for professional staff.
8. Special consideration to overcoming inequality in working
conditions and salaries for staff at FOC, and other areas of SUNY/B
where such inequalities exist.
9. Statewide action program to give state employees rights equal to
those of workers in private industry, including the right to strike.
10. Equal conditions for librarians with all other faculty, including
academic year, with no loss in pay.

the hopes that the moped craze

Bicycle shops and recreational
vehicle dealerships carry raopeds

buying from one of these dealers
as compared from a strictly
moped oriented shop should be
investigated. Generally, a business
of this type has been around

Three quarterbacks
lead UB football team

Catcher Ganci leads Bulls
by Ron Baron
Spectrum Staff Writer

This year, Bulls catcher Phil Ganci has the

responsibility of leading the baseball Bulls to another
winning

season.

Ganci, according to Coach Bill Monkarsh, is the

most improved player on the squad.” Last season,
Phil batted .320 with 27 RBI’s and five home runs.
Two of those home runs traveled over

400 feet.

Along with baseball, Phil also played varsity
football during his high school career at Frontier.
The strong catcher spurned a partial baseball
scholarship at LeMoyne College in order to play for
UB.

Ganci broke into the starting lineup last year
catcher Mike Dixon was sidelined with an
injury. Previously he had been the Bulls’ designated

has become very confident in leading the
team behind the plate. At the beginning of last
season, Monkarsh would call most of the shots. As
the season progressed and Ganci gained experience,
he became familiar with each pitcher and called his
own game. “The most difficult thing about handling
each pitcher was to recognize his own individual
strengths; also what particular pitch to throw in a
certain situation,” explained Phil, game and learns
from his mistakes. In addition, his hitting improved
80 percent.”
Ganci

Ganci attributes most of his success to desire,
hard work and Mike Dixon. “Mike worked long and
hard to improve my catching skills,” explained

Ganci. After Phil’s collegiate playing days are over,
he aspires to play professional baseball. “All 1 want
is a chance to play pro ball.” If things don’t work
out for Phil in pro ball, he will work for his father’s
business.
Rain, rain go away

Ganci feels the Bulls have a tremendous amount
of promise. With only three seniors on the squad,
Buffalo is extremely young. Phil was most impressive
in last year’s Eastern Collegiate Athletic Conference
(ECAC) Regional Playoffs in Delaware. Phil went
nine for ten hitting three doubles. Not only did he
star in the hitting department, but behind the plate
Ganci threw out three out of four runners
attempting to steal.
Monkarsh is very proud of Ganci. “Phil is a
student of the explained that defense is the key to
the Bulls’ success. Thus far the team’s major
improvement over last year’s squad has been in
pitching. Ganci was surprised that the pitchers’
control has been exceptionally good.

D,«e to the inclement weather, the Bulls have
only played four games this fall. When the weather
does clear, Ganci fears the Bulls will be sluggish and
flat.

The UB catcher has been bothered by tendanitis
in his throwing shoulder. As a result he has only
been used as a designated hitter thus far this fall. But
with a healthy Phil Ganci leading Buffalo this spring,
there is an excellent chance that the Bulls will
capture a berth in the playoffs for the third
consecutive year.

It wasn’t until July 7, ten days before the
opening of the games, that he was contacted by the
Lebanese Consul General and asked to appear for his
home country. The official explained that it was still
possible to enter a team in person and that Lebanon
wished to field a team made up of Lebanese athletes
living abroad. The Consul General asked if he knew
of anyone else who was also eligible to appear for
Lebanon. When Emad suggested his brother Gus,
who ran track for Albany Stale, he too was
accepted. So the brothers were off to Montreal
comprising two-thirds of the Lebanese entry (the
other entry being a judoist from Paris).
Upon arriving, they found they had no coaches
or assistants. Emad was granted permission to
practice with the U.S. Olympic team, and received i

Wrestling in Division I in the 177 lb. class, Emad
went 14-3-2 his first year, taking the Stale Collegiate
title. Returning in ’75 as captain of the team, he
posted an outstanding 17-1 record in dual meets,
winning such titles as the State Freestyle Champion
and the District 3 AAU Champion and making the
Eastern NCAA second All-Star team. No wonder
coach Michael called him “one of the finest athletes
ever at UB.”
Emad did try out for the U.S. Olympic team,
but was beaten in the semi-finals by Ed Hamilton,
another former UB wrestler. Faddoul ended up
third

When asked about another Olympic try in 1980,
when he will be 27, Emad replied, “Definitely. With
more conditioning. I could place near the top.” In
addition to training, Emad runs Faddoul’s Falafel.a
restaurant located at 3368 Bailey Avenue. Look for
him at Moscow in 1980, You can’t count him out of
the medal competition.

some coaching from Olympic great Dan Gable. With
a good draw he thought he had a shot at a medal. He
had already beaten the Polish and Canadian wrestlers
the year before in Buffalo. But the lost training
proved costly and he suffered tough defeats against a
Rumanian, and Rick Deschatelet from Canada. Gus,
who arrived too late to enter the decathlon, finished
ninth in the qualifications for the long jump (he
holds the Lebanese record), but could not make the
finals.
The Faddouls immigrated to the USA in 1967,
settling in Elmira, New York with relatives. Emad
first started wrestling in high school as a way to meet
other people and become involved in his new
surroundings. After graduating from high school, he
attended Corning Community College. While
competing there, Emad was noticed by UB wrestling
coach Ed Michael. Citing his “fine developmental
potential,” Michael recruited him for the 1973-74
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).

                    <text>Sheriff’s Dept, halts ID program after one day
used by the Sheriff’s office to keep records on people.
“The only reason Sheriff IDs exist is because originally
young people wanted some form of proof of age."
The only reason the Sheriff's Department uses IDs is
to make sure that false proof isn’t issued. Braun stated,
"Some kids come in here with someone else’s birth
certificate and then try and get their picture on an ID
card.” He said that they have discovered about six or
seven people trying to obtain false IDs.

The I ric County Sheriffs Department has stopped
Sheriff Cauls in Squire Hall.
The program which was supposed to last “as long as
even a month," according to John Baird Longworthy of
the Sheriff's Department, was terminated after one day
because of The Spectrum editorial entitled “No Sheriff
IDs on Campus." The editorial denounced the county’s
sale ol Sheriff Cards in lieu ol the University improving
its “useless" II) cards. Only 70 Shen11 IDs were issued to
students on Wednesday
I ric County Sheriff Ken Braun stated. "We are not
going to do something that some ol the students want
and some don't want." Braun was contacted due to the
efforts ol Inter-Kesidenee Council (IRC) who were
trying to appease students dissatisfied with the lack of
birlhdales on the IDs. Braun said. “I'm sympathetic with
I hi S/xi irinn x views. We came as a public service, but
rather than cause problems we decided not to return. I
feel that Sheriff’s office has a good working relationship
with the University and the students. I graduated from
UB
issuing

Braun also stated that every few years or so, files and
records of Sheriff’s IDs are discarded. “We have no need
and no filing space for all those records." Braun added
that the Sheriff’s Department does not make a profit on
the S3 cards.
IRC President Dan Kinley is attempting to get the
on campus. Kinley said, “I just can’t
understand The Spectrum's views." Kinley believed the
Sheriff’s office left because “they didn’t want to get
stuck in the middle of a student war." Kinley added that
he has written a rebuttal to The Spectrum s editorial

Sheriff’s cards back

Sheriff’s card unnecessary
A major contention of the IRC officials, members of
the Administration, and students was that Sheriff’s cards
were required as proof of age in bars in Buffalo. Of the
thirty-five bars listed in Snnnul '77. ’8 said they accept

"

Not for records
Braun emphasized that the Sheriff IDs were never

not be

This will be the first

to one of this University's eleven

self-governing colleges.
The study will be headed by nuclear physicist.
Marvin Resnikoff, lecturer at Rachel Carson College
and a nationally recognized expert on nuclear fuel
reprocessing. Resnikoff will be assited by one of his
students and an economist. Reprocessing entails
dividing nuclear wastes and returning them to
enrichment and fabrication facilities for re-use.
Resnikoff gave two reasons why nuclear waste
reprocessing is not currently being implemented.
Firstly, transporting nuclear wastes is cosily and
hazardous. In addition, President Carter has
indefinitely deferred the recycling of nuclear wastes
until effective international safeguards are
implemented.

No federal repository
Resnikoff
went
before a House of
Representatives sub committee on September 13 to
testify about the problems and excessive costs that
reprocessing will entail. Resnikoff said, “In the
plutonium recycle case, there are no commercial size
reprocessing and high level waste solidification
facilities. And even if all these facilities existed, there
is no federal repository into which all this long-lived
material can be placed.”
Resnikoff feels the lack of a federal repository
may force existing nuclear plants to shut down in a
few years because of excessive waste build-up in the
reactors themselves
Nevertheless, if there were no reprocessing
plants, the future of the breeder reactor, a type of
reactor that produces more fuel than it consumes,
would be dead, according to Resnikoff. The federal
government is looking into the Finger Lakes region
as a possible site for a waste repository.

economically practical,” says Resnikoff, “but as the
of U-235 (the volatile component of
nuclear fuel) becomes greater, and the price of
natural nuclear fuel rises, reprocessing becomes more
and more an economic possibility.”
shortage

Work on a nuclear fuel reprocessing plant in
South Carolina has been halted after $200 million
was spent, yet another $750 thousand will be needed
to complete the project. Work on the project was
halted after President Carter deferred all work on
nuclear reprocessing facilities.
The failing nuclear power industry tor whom
sales of nuclear reactors have fallen off to almost
nothing, is worried, according to Resnikoff. “They
don’t like the fact that Rachael Carson College is
doing the study.” The industry apparently resented
money being granted to its former critics, but, says
Resnikoff, “It’s in the best interest of the public.”

�Proposed rapid transit will
take you downtown quickly
by Elena Cacavas

Winston

Spectrum Staff Writer

proposed rapid
transit system, presently in the
architectural and engineering
design phase, will be a
development that greatly
influences the University
Community.
Robert L. Wilson, an architect
designing the LaSalle, Amherst
and the campus stations, recently
told the Buffalo Evening News
that h«, envisioned the station at
this University’s Main Street
campus as being, “the real Gem of
the entire system.” He elaborated
by stating, 'This station has the
largest problems and therefore the
largest opportunity to shine. It’s
the terminus station of the line
and will have the greatest
concentration of buses and
people. There are tremendous
problems in reconciling vehicular
and pedestrian traffic. There’s also
an opportunity to do something
creative.”
Wilson envisioned a park, water
and various sitting levels to be
included in the station’s design.
Although adding to the cost of
the project, these “extras” are not
as extraneous as they may seem.
Wilson added, “They’ll help to
maintain the community scenery
as well as fit nicely into this
relatively recent push toward
beautification of Buffalo and
urban renewal.”

Buffalo’s

Environmental impact system
Director of community services
for the Metro Construction
Division of the NFTA John
Winston said, “The rapid transit
system encompasses 13 years of
planning and study.” In the
1960’s designs were drawn up
which envisioned a 26-mile line;
however, when these were
presented by the architects to the
federal government, federal
officials detertnined that Buffalo
was not big enough for a system
of such a long distance.
Four or five years ago, the
Transportation Authority (NFTA)
became involved in the project,
developing an overhead transit
system with arteries branching
from Main Street, through the
out into
East Side and
Cheektowaga. Again, the
government said it was too
extensive and that “the ridership
potential was too low.”
Winston said that the NFTA
then approached
a Metro
Construction Staff which designed
an 11-mile overhead line. This,
too, was shot down by the federal
government which suggested that
designers work toward an
“environmental impact system.”
The next plan submitted,
encompassing a system impacting
or improving the environment was
accepted and is currently being
implemented.
Realizing that Buffalo’s Main
Street has “the most vast urban
sprawl of any other city,”

stated that the new
would
be oriented toward
system
aiding transportation in this most
demanding section of the city,
rather than having arteries
emulating from other directions
and terminating at the University.
Also, the present designs call for
the rapid transit to surface
downtown at the Main Place Mall,
thus facilitating shoppers who will
then spend money in the slowly
dying downtown businesses.
Another consideration in
building the rapid transit system,
general progress aside, was
Buffalo’s devastating weather.
Winston very carefully pointed
out that, “during last year’s
blizzard the only things moving
were the metro buses.” Now, the
will
underground system
hopefully facilitate transportation
even under the worst weather
conditions.
Winston stressed that from an
economic standpoint, this transit
system, costing $336 million, is
“the cheapest in the country.” it
is 20 percent of the project being
funded by New York State and 80
the
Urban
percent
by
Metropolitan Transit Authority
(UMPTA), leaving less of a tax
burden on Erie County residents
than would a completely state or
federally funded project. Winston
also pointed out that the project
will open up approximately 1500
jobs in the Buffalo area. The
construction contract specifically
stipulates that all labor must be
drawn from local unions. This
includes labor for all tunnelling
that must be done, which requires
special technology.
When rapid transit systems are
mentioned, the thought that often
comes to mind is New York City
and the hazards involved with
riding the subways there. Much
public sentiment seems to rest on
the idea that sub-ground

.

Urban renewal
Winston mentioned that the
entire rapid transit system was not
an idea “developed by the
bureaucrats.” It was the people of
Buffalo who, in the 1960’s,
formulated the idea and it was
also those same people who later
established a program called NOT
(no overhead transit) and sent to
Washington a petition with
74,000 signatures against
something such as monorail.
Overhead transit was thought to
destroy and to clutter the city.
Considering the path it has taken,
it’s clear to see that the 6.4 mile
line of rapid transit came as a
response to public desire rather
a
than
fulfillment of
“bureaucratic” ideas, Buffalo is
considered a vast, metropolitan
city which sometimes seems to be
dying because of lack of new ideas
and constructions. Perhaps now,
the product of 13 years of effort
will begin to set urban renewal in
the right direction.

transportation invites crime and
thus contributes to the
deterioration of a city. Winston
said that careful consideration is
being given to this aspect of the
project. He explained that under
the old building plan, such as New
York City’s subway system, the
nooks that were constructed as
part of the design encouraged
lurking. Now, the rule is to build
“open and complete stations.”
One of the main security features
of the Buffalo rapid transit system
will be constant TV surveillance
by hidden cameras of all tunnels
and stations. The NFTA will
provide security
officers to
observe at all times what is being
filmed. Buffalo city police will
also be on duty in the stations.
Constant study is being given to
the security aspects of this
project.

Ketter grants four
Colleges charters
by Bonnie Guewa
Staff Writer

Spectrum

President Robert L. Ketter has approved three year charters
affecting four of this University's colleges. The charters, which outline
the guidelines under which the colleges operate, were granted to Rachel
Carson College, Vico College, The College of Mathematical Sciences,
and Health Science College. Ketter renewed the charters, which also
specify the colleges’ individual purposes and goals, after evaluating a
report prepared by a student-faculty chartering committee. The
committee examined the academic, residential, and extra-curricular
programs of the four units in detail during last semester.
“The Health Sciences College is alive and well,” said the Manager,
Lee Dryden. “The renewal of our charter was a vote of confidence in
us.” Health Sciences College has a residential enrollment of 250 and
offers 30 courses. Three new courses have been added to the college
curriculum, ranging in subject from ethical values in the health
professions to care of handicapped and disabled individuals. The
college also hopes to expand community service this fall.
Vico in print
Rachel Carson College, after undergoing close scrutiny of courses,
research activities, and the colleges’ relation to other groups on
campus, “saw its charter renewed for the second time.” During the
year, RCC faculty members received grants from the Danforth
Foundation, the Rockefeller Foundation, and the Environmental
Protection Agency.
Meanwhile, Vico College has developed a six-course undergraduate
general education package concentrating on Western Civilization. Also,
the college has begun publication of “Polis,” a periodical devoted to
the intellectual and literacy interests of Vico College students and
*

faculty.

The College of Mathematical Sciences, which offers tutoring in
math, computer science, statistics, physics, and chemistry to all
University students, plans to expand a successful lecture program by
inviting distinguished scholars to spend a week on campus this year.
The other units of the Collegiate System, the College of Creative
Arts and Crafts, Cora F. Maloney College, Clifford C. Furnas College,
Tolstoy College, Women’s Studies College, and the College of Urban
Studies, were granted their respective charters in 1975, and will
probably be reviewed for renewal next year.

Theater Department
policies are protested
by Lee Scott Perres
Spectrum Stall Writer
A number of theater students have cited the casting process and
unfair competition as areas which the Theater Department needs to
amend The basic problem stems from the casting process of plays,
according to many students. “Being in a production is like my Chem
Lab,” one student said. “It is too difficult to get a part in the

productions.

”

Some theater students feel that

people are being pre-cast by the

department, placed in roles before auditions, for various personal or
political reasons, possibly denying students the chance to exhibit their
talent.
Assistant to the Chairman of the Theater Department, Lorna Hill,
denied this. “It is true that the same people are often used,” she said,
"but this is due to expertise in their field, not bias. The more
experienced someone is in the audition process, the better they will do
in the auditions.” Hill feels that more experienced students may have a
better chance, but feels the pre-casting accusation is unfounded
because a number of new people appear in each new show.
Saul Klkin agreed adding, "It is a fact of life in theater that you
start out carrying spears and then you get leads. Theater is directly
comparable to athletics as far as the competition is concerned. There is
a willingness on the part of the student to start on the bottom, learn,
and then work up to the lead roles. This is for educational reasons. You
get experience through progression.” Elkin felt that auditions are a
democratic process.

Unfair competition
Some students also felt that there is unfair competition by the
fellows, paid actors in residence. The theater department designs its
production schedule to include certain plays for fellows only and some
plays for undergraduates, for which fellows may audition. Yet some

students felt that there should be shows for undergraduates only, and
that the competition from the fellows is too great.
Hkin explained that fellows are actors in residence who provide
professional models. “It’s much like playing tennis with a tennis pro,”
Elkin said. “You do it to pick up better techniques.” The students
maintained that fellows who audition for the undergraduate plays get
important parts, which they felt is unfair.

No women’s roles

The lack of roles for women has brought about the formation of a

Women’s Theater Collective, which "was developed for women so they
could find a place in theater,” according to Lorna Hill. The collective
functions as a workshop group, covering in variety of activities from
writing to acting, to improvisational groups and even discussion groups.
They have tentatively scheduled their first public performance for
March 2. Elkin commenting on the lack of roles for women, said, “It is
very hard to create an absolute balance due to the nature of the way
plays are written.”
He felt the Theater Department is trying to work around this
problem, but some of the women aren’t convinced. The Theater
Department is putting on eight major productions, one of which has a
cast of 22 men and 1 woman. “It would be unfair to cancel the play,
and deny the 22 men the opportunity to work with this director,” one
woman in the department said, "But surely if this is the case, then
there should be some sort of balancing for the

women.”

Hours of rehearsal

Others claim there is a lack of understanding on the part of the
director concerning the students other academic responsibilities. We
have classes to go to and hours and hours of rehearsal at night," said
one girl "Sometimes we need time to study for an exam or two

Work on Highway
bypass has begun
by Michael O’Shea
Spectrum Staff Writer

In order to facilitate construction projects on the Amherst Campus,
the State Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) has begun
constructing a temporary bypass of a section of Millersport Highway.
The detour, designed by Sansati Associates of Massachusetts, will
begin near the site of the concrete telephone bunker house on
Millersport Highway, just north of the Maple Road intersection. The
road will continue east, then curve north, circling the outside of the
plant service building and Bissell Hall (the security building). The route
will then turn north and rejoin Millersport just south of Lake LaSalle
The original stretch of Millersport between the telephone bunker house
and Lake LaSalle will then be permanently closed to all traffic. D O T.
hopes to have the project completed sometime next summer.

The Zoological Society of Buffalo is sponsoring an
animal photography contest. Entries must be
delivered to the Zoo by November 1 and must
include animals at the Buffalo Zoo during 1977.
Name, address, and telephone number, plus the
name of the camera, must be printed in pencil on the
back of each entry. Each contestant must submit

Event's to be held on Hie

Building blocks
There are several construction projects currently underway or in the
planning stages which will require the closing of this section of
Millersport.
The Health, Physical Education, and Recreation building (H P.I .R.)
when constructed will stand directly in the path of the existing portion
of Millersport. The edifice will eventually contain a triple gym,
swimming pools, and a sports arena seating 10.000 spectators.
In order to afford accessibility to the new Music and Chamber Hall
building and the Theatre and Gallery buildings (which would contain a
gallery, a concert hall, and a theatre in the round), a new road
(Coventry Road) will be constructed using a protion of that same
stretch of Millersport that is being detoured.
Parking Jots in the area of the new buildings will be extended to
include both sides of Millersport Highway and the highway itself
Augspurger Road will also be lengthened and eventually will run across
that section of Millersport.
Circle games
Plans for a permanent bypass are already underway and the D.O T
hopes to begin work on that project this coming spring. The permanent
bypass, however, will be longer than the temporary one. It will begin at
approximately the same point and. like the temporary bypass, first
travel east and then north. However, instead of circling the plant
service building and Bissell Hall, the road will continue northeast make
a longer circle around the outside of Lake LsSalle.
It will then curve west and join Millersporl just south of the
Beechwood Nursing Home. Once the permanent re-routing has been
completed, which should be in about two years, the temporary bypass
will become part of the streets system of the Amherst Campus.
Brownrout speaks
At the present time; Millersport Highway near the University is
severely overcrowded. However, Amherst Councilman Gerald
Brownrout claims the temporary bypass will only make matters worse
because of a sharp turn at the end of the bypass which will create a
bottleneck and cause traffic to back up the entire length of the bypass
and possibly even beyond.
The Town of Amherst attempted to negotiate with the State
concerning abandonment of the detour idea favoring instead a
permanent bypass which would alleviate the traffic problem. But,
because of lack of funds, the temporary bypass'will have to be built
jf' '
first.

Stargazers invited
Stargazers and other persons interested in
viewing the heavens are invited to Wende Hall
Observatory, which will be open to the public on
clear Friday evenings from 8 p.m. to midnight.
Special field trips to the observatory, which is
located on the Main Street Campus next to Hayes
Hall, can be arranged by contacting the Department
of Physics and Astronomy at 636-2017.

Talk about opportunity
The cover of the September 26 issue of Newsweek takes the case
The
Regents of the University of California v. Allan Bakke. and with
of
affirmative
it
action programs intended to provide equal educational
and job opportunities for racial minorities and women, and reduces
them to their basest and most unfortunate proportions: black versus
white.
Bakke is charging the University of California with violating the
equal protection clause of the Fourteenth Amendment by denying him
admission to medical school because he is white. If he wins, racial
American-lndians,
Ricans,

Puerto
Mexican-Americans
and women will suffer tremendously in their
future quests for a good education and good jobs, as least as good as
those of the white man. His case is the most important to come before
the United States Supreme Court regarding equal opportunities for
minorities since Brown v. the Board of Education in 1954, which paved
the way for the commencement of school desegregation, in most cases
not enforced until recently.
More American people who read Newsweek will immediately
relate to the image on the front cover than will fully understand the
implications of the Bakke case for the millions who seek jobs and a
a
good education. Cover the diploma in the photo and what is left
black boy and a white boy struggling with opposite ends of the same
rope. Newsweek is thus determining the level on which all further
discussion about the Bakke case and about affirmative action will
proceed. No longer will rational academians and lawyers influence the
destiny of affirmative action and of education itself.
No, racial issues are always emotional and emotions always revolve
around self-interest. If Bakke had been accepted into Davis Medical
School, calling affirmative action "reverse discrimination" would have
never entered his mind.
Newsweek could have placed a woman on the front cover; in a
statistical sense, women are more affected by affirmative action than
are blacks. But no, Newsweek knows that it is easier for Americans to
take sides on a black v. white issue than on a man v. woman issue.
Women’s rights issues, such as the Equal Rights Amendment, have
always had the support of at least some men who call themselves
liberals and who function in the mainstream of American society.
Black power movements have never had any white support, except
among Jewish liberals from the suburbs and among acknowledged
radicals, the latter of which tried to destroy that mainstream.
Newsweek is provoking the easily provokable. Aside from being an
obviously staged and ostensibly boring photo, the front cover of the
September 26 issue is a misrepresentation of the real value of
affirmative action.
When President Lyndon Johnson signed the executive order in
1965 launching affirmative action, he said (according to Newsweek),
"You do not take a person who, for years, has been hobbled by chains
and liberate him, bring him up to the starting line of a race and then
say, 'You are free to compete with all the others,' and still justly
believe that you have been completely fair." However crippled by
bureaucratic red tape and corrupt government officials, Johnson's
program was an innovative attempt to redress two centuries of
blatantly racist and sexist American history.
The American Dream used to be a reality. Now, it can only
support itself on crutches. For some, affirmative action is one of those
—

crutches.

When Newsweek makes black v. white, and not equal opportunity,
the theme of its cover, it is clouding the issue and perpetuating the
racism (and sexism) that characterize America's history.

To the Editor

After reading Alice Tiffeault’s letter, I ask:
“Oakstone not the Place” for whom? And, let us
first ask: For whom is Oakstone the place?
Oakstone Farm is group study and group living.
Residents share housework, but more importantly,
share the responsibility for the quality of their talk

and study. Oakstone is for people who want a
reflective and a stimulating place to live.
Oakstone is not the place for people committed
to magical changes, nor for people who say one thing
but do the opposite, nor is Oakstone a place for
people determined to ignore others, present and
past.

Holmes lakes the argument to the extreme, the role
of education in this society is really much simpler
and more basic than it may appear.

One of the few professors from whom I ever

undergraduate education can not really be expected

more in one week on the job than you will in four

compensatory programs are inadequate to make up

Sufficient compensatory training programs

a bit of drive, and intrinsic ability (which does vary
between individuals) and you will have gone a long
way towards equalizing opportunity.

(Main Street) was and saw no evidence of security
present (particularly the field between Diefendorf
and Acheson).
On another evening we had the opportunity to
speak with a Campus Security officer on this matter.
The tilings we heard from him were astonishing but
unfortunately very true. Do you realize for a
University of this size only 4 security officers (per
campus) were on duty on a weekend night Also the
following statistics appalled us

I have nothing against ANYONh being helped to

supposed to be a non-sectarian institution, but
apparently those who generate dormitory revenue
get first preference. That may sound harsh, but
harshness never detracts from the truth.
I must request that The Spectrum withhold my

suggests watering hanging plants
with ice cubes. Nothing can
freeze, since ice melts at room
temperature.
Home temperatures between
60 and 80 degrees fahrenheit are
fine for plants. It is dry heat from
furnaces that stifles them. Misting
or spraying plants daily will
provide needed humidity. Any old
Windex spray bottle can be used it
it is first rinsed thoroughly. Be
aware
that some plants,
particularly fuzzy ones, do not
enjoy being sprayed and may

develop mold. Take your plants
into the bathroom with you when
you have a bath or shower. Ferns

steam fiesta.
An
easy way to provide

humidity is to put pebbles into
saucers or trays and filling them
halfway with water. The pot

Turn over a new leaf
Supermarket, plants probably
receive the worst care, says
Bieniek. Found in the produce
section, they are affected by gases
given off by fresh fruits and freon,
a chemical used in freezers.
Placement near delivery doors and
careless watering further
contribute to plants' decline, he
adds.
Even in the most unlikely
stores, some hardy, healthy plants
can be found, if you know what
to look for. Bieniek offers the
following tip to prospective plant
buyers: look at the plant as you
would any other piece of
merchandise. This
includes
checking leaves for spots, rips and
wilting, and their undersides for
insects. Ideally, the plant should
show new growth, such as an
unfolding leaf.
If the plant is small enough, lift
the dirt out of the pot to examine
the roots, which should be fleshy
and numerous. Finally, ask the
salesperson
for specific care
instructions and write them down.
Good plant stores will invite you
to call them if any problem
should arise.
Sun starvation
In her book Plants from Plants
Suzanne Grayson states, “The
amount of light is probably more
important to plants than any
other requirement.” Each type of
plant has its own light needs, but
a good rules of (green) thumb is;
plants with pale green leaves
require more light than those with
dark green leaves. Also, the
thicker the leaves, the more light
is needed. Cacti and other
succulents are living proof of this.
Put your most light-hungry
plants in windows facing south or
west. Winter light is better for
plants because the sun lies lower
in the sky and reaches farther into
rooms. If you have no adequate
windows, you can purchase a
plant bulb or tube, or simply

The UB men’s tennis team scored another Division 111 victory
Wednesday when they defeated Gannon College, 7-2.
Gannon, which KO’d UB 8-1 last year, proved to be no match for
UB as the Bulls extended their winning streak to three. The Bulls
showed that they were in control from the outset by winning five of
the first six matches.
Helping the Bulls to overcome the Gannon threat in the singles’
matches were freshman Tod Miller, sophomore Dave Myers, junior Jack
Kaminski, freshman Ted Baugn, and Dave Blanck. The second doubles
combination of Tony Gorruzo and Kevin Donovan won their match
7-6, 6-4 and while third doubles team of Jack Kaminski and Dave
Myers also proved effective as they won easily 6-0, 6-2.
Second year coach LaPenna cited the consistent play of his young
team, especially Miller and Myers, as a key to understanding the Bulls’
success. Myers is presently undefeated in both singles and doubles play
and number one Miller currently holds a 5-1 record in singles and 2-1 in
doubles.

Uphill

LaPenna is confident that it’s all up hill for the Bulls who have one
full week of regular season play remaining. And full it is, as they must
face five teams in the next six days.
They start today against Buffalo Stale and then face Canisius
College tomorrow. After only a one day lay-off, Buffalo plays Geneseo
on Thursday, travels to Fredonia on Friday, then returns to battle
Cortland on Saturday.
After this week, the Bulls will complete against Buffalo State,
Canisius, and Niagara to determine the Big Four champion. LaPenna is
optimistic that the Bulls, who currently hold the title, will repieat as the
Big Four champion and possibly compete in the Nationals this spring.

Touchdown

Playing on their home court for the first time this year on
Wednesday, the UB women’s tennis team overpowered Fredoma State
5-2, thus evening their record at 1-1.
Sophomore sensation Mimi Weiss disposed of Fredonia’s Tricia
Morrow 6-3, 6-4. Weiss combines a smooth, two handed backhand with
a vicious forehand stroke. She had some difficulty keeping the pressure
on Morrow. “It was hard to keep it going because she just hit
everything back,” said Weiss.
Freshman Dee Dee Fisher, playing second singles in the absence of
Diance Defalco, routed Sue Sharon 6-1, 6-1. Fisher kept her serves
deep, thus preventing her opponent from rushing the net. “I don’t plan
it that way, it just goes where it goes,” she admitted.
Fisher played a consistent game, forcing Sharon into numerous
mistakes. With her perpetual smile, Fisher never seems rattled. “It’s
great for psyching people out,” noted co-captain April Zolc/.er, who
also was victorious. She toppled Lisa Beekman 6-4, 6-1.
Sister ys. sister?
In the fourth singles match, Carol Waddell was victimized by
Marty Mathewson 6-0, 6-3. Waddell didn’t practice much over the
summer and is still getting into shape. “It shows, because 1 can’t get
myself started. I haven’t played that badly in a while; it was really
disgusting,” she said.
The match that drew the most attention was between Buffalo’s
Cynthia Glynn and Fredonia’s Lori Wisniewski. Lori is the sister of
Buffalo co-captain Judy Wisniewski. With their parents watching, Lori
edged Glynn 5-7, 6-3, 6-2 while Judy was winning in the first doubles
match. The two sisters nearly met in first doubles. “She usually plays
first doubles,” said Judy. “We were going to play, but then the second
singles got sick,” explained Lori. Was July pulling for Lori? “I had to,
she’s my buddy, as well as my sister.”

Judy and partner Kris Schum overwhelmed Lileen Weinstein and
Sharon Sibley 6-1, 6-0, despite the fact that Judy has had trouble with

In the other doubles match, Lynda Stidham and Lynn Kirchmaier
of Buffalo upped their season record to 2-0 with a win over Fredonia’s
Barbara Richard and Marilny Connolly 6-4, 6-2.
Today’s foe, Brockport State, figures to give Buffalo more trouble
than Fredonia did. “These things stay about the same quality every
year,” said team manager Karen Weimar. “Some of the small schools
like Fredonia and Canisius College don’t usually have good teams. The
larger schools like Syracuse, Rochester, and Brockport will always have
good teams.”
The players enjoy having spectators, but the turnout was light

if 1 didn’t have to play,” joked Zolczer. The next home match is

&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;

Will last year’s TAP
dance be reheard?
Last year’s Tuition Assistance Program (TAP) nightmare may
prove to be a recurring bad dream for thousands of applicants and the
Office of Student Accounts at this University.
Early listings from Albany indicate that the Higher Education
Services Corporation (HESC) is processing TAP applications at about
the same rate as last year.
Slowly.
According to the Director of Student Accounts, William Calhoun,
HESC is doing about 1S percent better than last year, which is nothing
to beam about since only a quarter of applicants had received their
awards by September of that year.
Calhoun said the figures were not “significant” at this time. “At
this point, it doesn’t seem to be that much further along than last
year,” he observed.

Calhoun’s office was forced to allow students to pay “what they
thought they owed” assuming their TAP awards eventually came in.
Many students ultimately received less than they imagined TAP would
bring them, and thus owed the University unexpectedly large sums of
money.

Left listening
“Last year we had an exceptionally lenient policy,” said Calhoun.
Whether or not this year will bring the same leniency is yet to be
determined, he added. Last year students were allowed to register for
the Spring semester without having paid bills for the fall.
HESC has supposedly implemented a “Management Improvement
Plan” after the State Legislature threatened to cut off funding for the
last eight months of this academic year. Last year’s TAP debacle
brought a landslide of complaints to state assemblyman and senators.
In response, hearings were held across the state to determine the extent
of th,e problem.
Calhoun feels that HESC created some of its problems by
tightening the “emancipated student” guidelines. That crack-down
mad** it more difficult for students to file for TAP as independents. It
also added altitude to the mountain of paperwork needed to process
and approve a TAP application
In any event, is seems likely that when students at this University
receive their tuition bills the second week in October, many will still be
listening for their TAP awards.

Black youth wounded

KKK involved in shooting
by Andy Nathanson
and Harvey Shapiro
Editor’s note: This is the first in a series on the K u
Klux Klan in the Buffalo area. This part deals with
an alleged shooting of a black youth by a KKK
member
Karl Hand Jr., an admitted member of the local
chapter of the Klu Klux Klan, was arrested last
Sunday night in connection with what was termed a
“senseless and unprovoked” shooting of a black
youth on September 9th.
The incident took place outside the home of
another KKK member, Wayne Whiteside, who once
ran for mayor of Buffalo on the White Unity Party
ticket. The shooting suspect was treasurer of the
same party

According to Buffalo Police Detective Gerald
Crenin, who is also the editor of the local KJan
paper, the Shield and Eagle Hand was picked up by
Buffalo police based on his resemblance to the
composite sketch furnished by the victim, Michael
Johnson. Johnson is in Deaconess Hospital,
recovering from woulds incurred in the shooting.
Hand was arraigned Wednesday and charged with 1st
degree assault.
,

Whites and wrongs
The shooting incident apparently started when
the victim’s brother, MacLain Johnson, began
speaking to a white woman outside of Whiteside’s

house at 2588 Bailey Avenue. When the woman
would not answer he allegedly asked why, but
received no reply.
What happened next is sketchy, but according
to Buffalo Chief of Detectives Ralph V. Degenhart,
the woman then entered Whiteside’s home. “Some
minutes later,” he said, “several men appeared and
asked ‘which one of you was talking to my woman?’,
at which point the victim’s brother started to drive
away. Then one of the men opened fire. A talk with
witness led to a sketch which led to this man (Mr.
Hand) being picked up.”
Klan conscienceless
The shooting was called “senseless and
unprovoked” by Jesse Williams, a community
organizer for BUILD. Mr. Williams went on to add
that BUILD’s own investigation has led him to
believe that Whiteside was at the scene of the
shooting. However, Chief Degenhart said, “We only
have one composite sketch and we have no
knowledge of Mr. Whiteside’s presence at that time.”
The house where the shooting occured is a
meeting place for the local KKK, according to Joel
Weiss of the Buffalo Jewish Federation. “Apparently
the house serves as the office of the local chapter,”
he observed. Detective Cronin previously mentioned
that the people who frequent the house are “a gang
of whites, some kind of white power outfit.” He
added that the police investigation of this case is
over.

�Athletes

suffer

Athletic facility shortage
here discouraging to many
by Mitch Gross
Spectrum Staff Writer
One feeling that all athletes
in intramural,
recreational and club sports at this
University seem to have in
common is a dissatisfaction with
the facilities available to them.
Although most dedicated athletes
struggle on with limited space and
it
is
still
a
equipment,
discouraging and degenerating

who participate

problem.

The students who practice
their sport alone or with a dub
are the most affected by the
shortage because they are last on
the equipment scheduling list,
behind gym classes and team
sports. Students feel they have
some valid grievances about the
facilities and want their opinions

heard.
The programs offered here
seem many and varied, but
students and faculty both feel
that few sports can be practiced
properly for lack of space and

equipment.

“We need a new mini-trampoline.”
About the lack of space in the
gymnastics room,
Vinnie
Whiteside said: “You can’t vault
because there’s no room; you
can’t use the rings and do floor
exercises at the same time. If you
want to use the high bar, you have
to take down the trampoline and
roll up the mats.” The area
available for gymnastics is also
decreased by the use of the room
as a storage closet. Mops and
cleaning buckets take up one
corner of the room.
“See that?” said John Basel,
pointing to a huge green oval
leaning against one wall of the
room,
“that’s
the pitcher’s
mound.” John is the captain of
the gymnastics club and even with
the lack of space would like to see
more people join the club. He also
feels that there should be repairs
made on some of the equipment
in the room. The torn side-horse
was high on his list.
Paddleball problem
An angry Bruce Decker said of
the paddleball facility at Amherst:
“My high school had better. There
aren’s any lights on this court like
the tennis courts.” There are also
very few paddleball courts and
they are in great demand.
Paddleball
Michael
player
Robbins remarked, “There’s only
one wall on Amherst and we
won’t be able to use that much
longer.” You can’t play paddleball
in the snow, someone said.
The director of Intramurals
and
Recreation, William
Monkarsh, admits the school is
pressed for facilities. “Every space
is jam packed.” he said, “the
paddleball courts, the tennis
courts, the basketball courts
all
of them.”
As
to
the shortage of
paddleball courts, Mr. Monkarsh
said; “We have two squash courts
that we use for paddleball and
two others just for squash. We
don’t have
regulation
any
paddleball courts.”

‘They don’t care’
Larry Decker works out in the
Clark Gym weight room six days a
week for three hours a day. He
has been lifting weights for three
years and thinks the weight room
should be expanded.
“They should have more loose
weights and the room should be
left open more often,” said Larry.
Gary St. Onge added that the
weight room isn’t big enough to
serve everyone who wants to lift
and his hours are severely cut
when a team has to use the room.
Everyone in the weight room
agreed that with all the use it gets,
the room should be taken care of
more consistently. “It seems like
they don’t care,” said Larry,
referring to the gym officials.

�Off-Campus Housing

Looks back

Office to re-open soon Makowski stepping down
by Danny Parker

Spectrum

An Off-Campus Housing Office (OCH) will open up sometime in
the near future, according to Sub Board I Treasurer Dennis Black.
The new office will be located in 343 Squire Hall and Off-Campus
Housing will share the office with the Division Directors of Squire Hall,
Health Care and Publications. Black said, “It will take at least one week
before the office is set up and opened. The only things slowing us
down are obtaining physical entrance to the room, along with phone
service.” In the meantime, Off-Campus Housing calls will be taken at
831-5534.
The office will be open Monday through Friday, from 10 a.m. to 5
p.m., with a secretary supplying information. The secretary will be paid
from the combined budget of three Division Directors. “In other
words,” said Black, “there will be one secretary for the Division
Directors and Off-Campus Housing, but there will be a separate phone
line for Off-Campus Housing.” By placing the two organizations in one
office, “one room supervision can be maintained, except in the heavy
need periods,” stated Black.

No money for help
To cope with the problem, during “heavy need periods,” Black
hopes to hire additional help which should aid in preparing lists, and
making phone calls. Right now there is no money allocated for this
additional help, but Black hopes to get it appropriated at Sub Board’s
next Board of

Director’s

meeting.

Money will be spent from Director of Squire Union Activities
Joyce Levin’s “Innovative Programming for Squire Union” budget. The
money will be used for advertising the location and phone number of
the

new OCH office.

Levin called the need for an Off-Campus Housing Office “very
important,” saying, “it’s still not too late. People will start looking for
houses for January in November.”
Former Director of Off-Campus Housing Heidi Lewis stated
“Anything is better than nothing and any amount of money they
(OCH) can get together is an improvement Unfortunately, they had to
stop services to discover that services could be done cheaper. At this
point, most people looking for houses have had to do things on their
own.”

Health services at
Amherst are lacking
The future of student health care on the Amherst campus is
presently uncertain since adequate space has not been provided for the
University Health Services. Although a four-room clinic has been
established in the Peter Porter quadrangle

in

the ITlicott Complex, it is

only equipped to provide first aid. students requiring care of a
physician must travel to Michael Hall on the Mam Street campus.
According to Director of Health Services Luther Musselman, the
situation can not be resolved until more room is allotted to Health
Services. 'That space,” he said, "will most probably come from the
dorms,” therefore avoiding a lag time of about five years that normally

�Seniors here urged
to join Peace Corps
Peace Corps/VISTA recruiter Tom Malloran, a former Peace Corps
volunteer in Western Samoa is encouraging graduating seniors at this
University to consider service with one of the volunteer programs when
making career plans.
“Service with the Peace Corps or VISTA (Volunteers In Service To
America) can give many new college graduates valuable career-related
experience which their peers may have to work years to get,” said
Hallor an. “In addition to this, it is also an experience which offers
adventure and the opportunity for self-discovery.”
Those who are interested in finding out more will have the
opportunity September 27-29, when a team of Peace Corps/VISTA
recruiters will be at the placement office here in Hayes Annex B.
Hal I or an suggested that interested seniors contact the placement office
prior to this time to pick up applications and sign up for an interview.
He requested that applications be filled out by the time of the
interview.
According to Halloran, Peace Corps and VISTA are in the midst of
a resurgence.
“You may not have heard too much about the Peace Corps and
VISTA in the last few years, but we’re making a comeback,” he said
“We are presently gearing up to recruit more people for more positions
than we have in years.”

People needed
Halloran said the majority of people needed for Peace Corps and
VISTA assignments are those with backgrounds in health, nutrition,
agriculture, engineering and teaching. However, he encourages anyone
with an interest, and a skill, to come in.
In addition to having a skill, applicants for the Peace Corps must
be U.S. citizens at least 18 years old, in good health, and willing to
serve in a foreign country for a minimum of two years. There is no
upper age limit for service with the Peace Corps or VISTA
Qualifications for service in VISTA are the same, except volunteers
must be willing to serve for a minimum of one year in the United
States, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands, Guam or American Samoa.
In return for their service. Peace Corps volunteers receive expert
language training, free transportation to and from the country where
they work, medical benefits, a living allowance and two months
vacation. A readjustment allowance'of $125 for each month of service
is also paid to the volunteer upon completion of an assignment.
People in VISTA receive pre-service training, living expenses, one
week vacation, free transportation to and from their assignment, and
$50 for every month of service. Again, this readjustment allowance is
paid at the end of an assignment.
The Peace Corps and VISTA are programs under ACTION, the
federal agency for volunteer service. Other ACTION programs include
the Foster Grandparent Program, Senior Companion Program, Retired
Senior Volunteer Program, the Program for Local Service and
University Year for ACTION.

once in a while,” stated one student.
Another related God to mathematics. She said
“He is a mathematical equation of energy that exists
in all forms of matter and the universe. Math is the
basis for our creation. Ideally, everyone should do
well in math, because we are said to be made in
God’s image.”
Interestingly, a student said, “The feeling of

student, was the only one of its nature.

Several students thought that religion was a
form of brainwashing. “Religion is harmful and loo
rigid. It drills certain ideas into children. It can cause
mental disturbances,” claimed one of these students.
Someone of the same belief said. “I’ve often
thought religion is brainwashing to the extent that it
is influencing an idea.”

‘Find out when dead’
When asked what he thought God was, one of
the many people selling their wares in Squire Hall
replied, “I don’t know, but we’ll find out when
we’re dead. Until I’m sure that there isn’t an
after-life, I’ll be a good person.”

A better world’
“I believe in Him very strongly. When you don’t
know where to turn, you can always turn to Him,"
was the remark of a firm believer.
A similar opinion from a student was, “Cod is a
power that controls our everyday life. If everybody
took religion into their lives, this would be a better
world
Prom the same student came this instance. “My
brother was confused, drinking heavily and on drugs.
Now that he’s found religion, he doesn’t need them
anymore. He’s naturally high on life."
Another
student’s sister suffered from a
cancerous tumor and was pronounced
incurable.
“Through religion she now has perfect health,” said
the student, gratefully.

One student commented, “We will eventually be
able to define the origin of man scientifically. I can't
believe in a Supreme Being.”
“I don’t like imaginary things. I want something
that I can see right in front of me.” This reflects a
common search and need for hard facts. “Its
intangible. It’s something I can’t conceive of,”
expressed another student, hinting at an inward
desire to be able to literally see god.

Still a mystery

Several people didn’t acknowledge a Deity's
presence, but expressed the need for religion’s
existence. One commented, “1 don’t really believe in

�Phony

drugring

by David Levy
Spectrum Staff Writer

A Town of Boston man was arrested last
Wednesday and accused of heading the Buffalo area
branch of a 32-city flim-flam operation that sells
phony amphetamine tablets to truck drivers.
What makes this case unique is not opty the fact
that the amphetamine tablets were actually nothing
more
than caffeine, but the extent and
sophistication of the phony drug operation, An trie
County Sheriffs Department investigation has
revealed that the confidence operation does business
in at least 10 states and is complete with, business
cards and citizen band radio code names.
In coffee and capsules
Michael McGinley, 32, of Boston State Road
was initially charged with sales and possession of an
illegal drug after allegedly selling the phony
amphetamines to undercover policemen in a
downtown Buffalo parking lot. At the time,of the
arrest, the officers still believed the tablets' to be
“genuine” uppers.
After a lab test revealed the drug to be caffeine,
McGinley was booked on charges of “scheming to
defraud,” a felony carrying a term of 2-7 years upon
conviction. Scheming to defraud is a relatively new
statute, enacted only a few months ago.
Captain Santo Costantino of the Sheriff’s
Narcotics Unit said others suspected to be involved
in the phony drug ring have been arrested.in other
states only to be released upon discovery that no
statutes existed to prosecute them.

Authorities here

nearly released McGinley before coming across the
new law, almost by chance. By suggesting that he
was selling amphetamines, McGinley enabled police
to charge him under the scheming to defraud law,
Costantino said.

Pushing in the USA
The flim-flam operation was first reported last
month to the Buffalo police by law enforcement
agencies in other states. The operation had business

cards bearing the name “Pea Shooter” and telephone
numbers for 32 cities in 10 states. One of the cities
listed was Buffalo with an area phone number. Lt.
Ba'tsimonian of the Buffalo Police contacted the
Sheriff’s narco unit and a plan was developed to buy
the amphetamines.
The phone number was called and a meeting was
set between an undercover cop and McGinley.
McGinley arrived at the parking lot with the
suspected amphetamines in a black bag. As part of
his selling technique, McGinley appeared to be
nervous, giving the buyer the impression of
purchasing an illegal drug. McGinley was arrested
after he sold Deputy Petronella 5,000 “suspected”
amphetamine tablets for JI640.

A big 10-4
McGinley usually dealt with truck drivers using
a CB radio and the code name “Medicine Man.” The
drivers were contacted, a meeting arranged and the
deals were consummated, usually on the side of the
highway. “Medicine Man” is a common “handle”
among trucjc drivers for someone selling drugs.
The extent of the “Pea Shooter” network was
revealed earlier this month in a report published in
the Atlanta Constitution. The paper reported that
the network operates from the William Saye Drug
Co. located in a suburban Atlanta shopping plaza.
Saye is a former truck driver.
Costantino said 100,000 caffeine tablets were
shipped into the Buffalo area last month. The local
branch of the operation, headed by McGinley, “was
geared to do a good business,” according to
Costatino. Since only 50,000 of the tablets have
been found, authorities are assuming that the other
50,000 are now in circulation in the Buffalo area.
The profits being made by the “Pea Shooter”
network are apparently immense. The wholesale
value of the caffeine tablets, bought by Deputy
Petronella for $1640, is actually only $50. Simply
put, McGinley stood to make a profit of $1,590
(3,200 percent) on the sale. Sources told The
Spectrum that the “Pea Shooter” network had sales
of $50 million last year.

Aging Center to
begin lecture series
by Thomas Rosamilia
Spectrum Staff Writer
The Multidisciplinary Center For The Study Of Aging will begin its
1977-78 lecture series on Thursday, September 29 at 2 p.m. in O’Brian
Hall Court on the Amherst Campus. The six lecture series will feature
outstanding authorities in such fields as Nursing. Architecture, Legal
Services, Medical and Health Education, all of whom are concerned
with the impact of their disciplines on Gerontological science (the
study of aging). The first speaker in the series, Mr. Thomas Byerts, is
the Director of the Gerontology Center at the University of Chicago.
Another scheduled speaker will be Dr. E.W. Busse. Associate Provost
and Dean of Medical and Health Education at Durham University
Medical Center, Durham, N.C. He will speak at 2 p.m. in the
Conference Theater of Squire Hall on the subject of “Bio-Behavioral
aspects of Aging.”

The lecture series, which will be the fourth the center has
presented, is open to the public, faculty and students. All are invited to
attend these lectures which will be given in O’Brian Hall Court on the
Amherst Campus and the Conference Theater in Squire Hall on the
Main Street Campus. A complete list of the lecture series participants,
dates and venues is available upon request in 4248 Ridge Lea.
The Gerontological Center, in its third year of operation, has three
main purposes, one of which is to promote courses on aging through
various departments within this University. The departments, which
include
Anthropology,
Architecture,
Psychology, Sociology,
Occupational Therapy and other health-related professions, lead to
multidisciplinary degrees with emphasis on Gerontology. The center
also promotes and encourages basic and applied research along with
providing in-service training for those involved in community services
for the elderly.
The Center also offers a "Certificate Program on Community
Mental Health Services for the Elderly” designed for social workers.
nurses, and other professionals who work with senior cili/.ens.
Gerontology as a discipline has grown and expanded rapidly, especially
in the last six years. The Multidisciplinary Center for the Study of
Aging was established largely as a response to this growing interest and
concern for Gerontological science.

never eaten meat and has never

“Indians don’t believe in killing;

Magnet Schools open,
desegregation is goal
This year the City of Buffalo is embarking on a unique and
previously unventured method of desegregating its school system by
creating new formats for eight schools which were previously minority
enrolled. These new schools have programs which are designed to
attract white students. Hence the name Magnet.
This innovation is Phase II of a court order requiring the
integration of Buffalo public schools. Buffalo is the only city in the
nation to follow this unique path for integration and the Magnet
Schools are completely voluntary.

Attracting
In order to attract the majority white students to inner city
schools, diverse curicula are being implemented. Each Magnet school
specializes in a different teaching method or subject matter. In this way
the parent and child can choose which method of teaching is best
suited for that child. These programs would not ordinarily be available
within the Buffalo public school system. It is on these programs that
the Magnet school program depends. If parents did not cooperate, the
whole program would be doomed.
This past summer there was a campaign in the media to spread
information about the various schools. Parents were encouraged to
contact the school system if they wanted their children to attend these
schools. The response was overwhelming, requiring a lottery for some
schools in order to assure a proper racial mix. However, enrollments in
the Follow Through school and the Traditional school lagged during
the summer registration program, still, this has caused no major
problem.
Their names
Some of the schools are: Buffalo Traditional, Performing Arts,
Montessori School and Follow Through. Some Magnet schools are for
fifth through ninth grades and others are kindergarten to eighth grade.
Eventually the fifth to ninth grade schools will be expanded to the
twelveth grade. In addition to these eight inner city schools, there are
three more regional magnets including a Native-American school The
high school districts have been re /.oned so the magnets affect more
than just the elementary schools. This, too, is past the desegregation
order.

School authorities report that they have had an excellent start this
September. Attendance has been maintained and except for a few
problems with transporting children, there have been no problems. The
young students are transported in the familiar yellow buses, however,
fewer buses are used than if a forced busing plan had been employed.
Also, under the Magnet Schools Program the children don’t mind being
bussed because they want to go to school. Such is fhe primary appeal
of the Magnet Schools.
The Magnet Schools Program shows that Buffalo can lead the
nation in a peaceful integration unlike the cities of Boston, Louisville
and Chicago.

Waiver deadline extended
The last day to waive the Student Health
Insurance is now Friday, September 30. The date
will not be extended again. The waivers may only be
turned in to Room 213 Michael Hall. Proof of other
insurance is necessary for the waiver to be processed.
The office will be open Monday, Wednesday and
Friday from 9 a.m. till 5 p.m.; on Tuesday and
Thursday from 11 a.m. till 7 p.m.

But not nerve gas

Cyclists save gas, nerves
by Lynn Novo
Spectrum Slaf) Writer

Daily, student bicyclists can be seen making
their way down Main, Winspear and Bailey en route
to the Main Street campus.
The pedalers give various reasons for choosing
their mode of transportation. If the student doesn’t
drive a car, he/she rides a bike because it is “the only
easy way” or “better than walking.” For those living
near campus, it is faster and less nerve wrecking to
cycle than to drive a car because fighting rush hour
traffic and finding a parking space are so difficult.
“Riding my bike wakes me up and it’s great
exercise,” is one student’s reason.
The bikers plan to ride as long as weather
permits. Most seem undaunted by cold air, but feel
that heavy rain is dangerous for riding because of
possible brake failure. “I’ll be riding till the snow
flies,” enthused one bicycler.
Path not feasible
The heavy traffic on the main arteries to the
campus is dealt with by circumvention of the
congested areas when possible. The greater problem,
however, is with pedestrian traffic on the campus

itself. One student's solution: "There should be a
designated bike route on campus.” The Spectrum
brought this matter to the attention of the Student
Police.
(SA)
and
University
Association
Representatives from both organizations did not
think a bike path was feasible.
Once on campus, there are many places to park
a bike. Bike stands are scattered all over, including
the library areas and Squire Hall. But bikes can be
seen secured to any convenient stationary object,
especially the building signs. There are "Rally
Racks” on the Amherst Campus in addition to
standard bike racks. These are black metal brackets
bolted into the ground with an attached cable. The
rear wheel and frame of the bike are inserted
between the bracket and the cable is wrapped
through the front tire. The biker need only supply
the lock.

Lacking attendant
The greatest concentration of bikes is in the
Student Bicycle Compound behind Lockwood
Library on the Main Street campus. This is a
fenced-in area enclosing eleven bike racks. There is a
booth where an attendant is to sit. There has been

My good friend, Bert

Now that Bert Lance has relinquished, finally, the
position of Budget Director and has returned a slightly
tarnished but still beloved hero to his home town of
Calhoun. Georgia, business in Washington can be resumed
with some semblance of normality.
President Carter will never live down his first interior
crisis. Having been voted in as President after the blatant
corruption that so castigated the Nixon years and the
bumbling mediocrity of Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter was
supposed to Mr. Clean the White House and open
Washington's doors for all to inspect the proceedings therein.
After all, what President ever ate peanuts for breakfast,
lunch and dinner and had a brother who drank a six-pack of
Pabst a day?
What the Lance affair has demonstrated is that,
regardless of the personal charisma and down-to-earth antics
Lance reportedly drives a beat-up old pickup truck around
Calhoun and Carter used to call on the Allman Brothers
from time to time in Macon (and his own son was even
tossed out of the naval academy for possession of marijuana)
successful politics and finances in this country are
inevitably based on what associations a person has cultivated
and how they can be best exploited for individual gain.
—

—

President Carter is not above such practice. However, his
precedents
own interests have been transposed
and by the media into what is "good for the American
people." Yet, it is this kind of interaction which best
characterizes that "semblance of normality" in Washington.
The fact that Bert Lance engaged in such dubious and, in
fact, illegal practices such as extensive bank overdrafts for
family, friends and corporate allies, the double use of
collateral for loans, the sale of a personally-owned airplane
to his own bank for profit, the flying of that plane to the
Mardi Gras or the possible political use of that plane does
not distinguish him from other bankers or banking
institutions across the country.
The fact is, Bert Lance is smart, and dedicated. Anyone
who quits college to work in a bank to support his pregnant
wife and, in a dozen years, becomes president of the bank
must be smart and dedicated. He must also know the right
people. Jimmy Carter, whom he met in 1970, was one of
those right people.
"Bert Lance is my friend," said the President. Carter has
denied that he overlooked any of Lance's possible
disqualifications, which are now public allegations and for
which, under ordinary circumstances, he would stand trial if
they were found to be true, because of their personal
friendship. Yet Carter has expressed more sorrow over the
dismissal of a "good friend" than he has expressed concern
over his friend's illegal banking practices.
Is Carter trying to condone those alleged practices, or
excuse them or ignore them? One hand always washes the
other. That is what good friends are for. So what else is new?

Holy days—secular

affair

To the Editor

I should like to respond to Mr. Roy Schmuckler
the issue of the recent decision of the State
University to suspend classes on Jewish Holy Days. 1
should like it understood furthermore that I do so in
a spirit of genuine friendship and in the interests of
constructive dialogue worthy of a University. It is
unfortunate that this cannot simply be assumed
tacitly, but the level of hostility, insult, and
innuendo
that has so far characterized this
discussion
on both sides, I am sorry to say
makes it necessary to declare the most obvious
conventions of civility, even at the risk of appearing
naive.
Our discussion starts, I believe, with something
on which we all agree: that the State University is a
secular institution within a larger society which is
also fundamentally secular At its worst, a secular
society supresses religious values and observance
(unless they happen accidentally to conform to its
own norms and goals); at its best, it fosters or at
least tolerates, equitably and without privilege,
religious values and practices, even those critical of
its own norms and goals, so long as the good of all
and the fundamental rights of each are not seriously
jeopardized. (The Manson
family, it will be
remembered, acted, or claimed to act, out of
religious conviction.)
Now fostering or tolerating means at least not
penalizing someone for the practice of his faith
when it happens to require his absence from secular
affairs. It does not mean suspending secular business
for the sake of religious observation unless, of
course, such a substantial majority of society’s
members would absent themselves, that it would
serve no useful purpose for secular business to be
conducted. This, I would submit, is how religious
holy days like Christmas and Raster became secular
holidays in our own culture, despite a constitutional
separation of church and state
on

-

If we allow Mr. Schmuckler his disregard of
such quantitative considerations (and there is no
dearth of good reasons for doing so), then of course
we must grant all religions, irrespective of size, the
same privilege recently accorded members of the
Jewish faith, i.e., suspension of University business
to
But
and this is the core of my argument
suspend University business on the holy days of all
faiths would surely destroy its continuity, if not
thoroughly curtail its effective life.
It will be objected that Christianity is already
privileged in that on Christmas and taster University
business is suspended. I would answer, as others
have, that Christmas and Easter are, whether we like
it or not, state and federal holidays, i.e., secular
holidays. If that is a mistake, it is a mistake which
we have inherited historically. I do not wish to
discount the fact that history may have created an
inequity here, but surely the solution is not to
compound the mistake. If the privileged status
accorded Christmas and Easter is a cause of division
among us, then it would surely be more reasonable
to work toward the elimination of the privilege,
rather than to aggravate the division by selective
extension of the privilege (witness the charges ot
“appeasement”), or
fairer in the means, but worse
in
the result
to curtail secular business by
universal extension of the privilege.
It is much to Mr. Schmuckler’s credit that betakes with utmost seriousness the conduct of
individual classes at this University. Otherwise, he
would not have worked so vigorously to eliminate a
situation in which members of his faith would have
to absent themselves from even a single class
Unfortunately, not all students or faculty here share,
as I do, his sense of seriousness in this regard. And it
they are
right,
then both Mr.
Schmuckler’s
arguments and my own turn out to be quite trivial,
mine more than his.

everyone passes through, fragmentation results and
the free exchange of ideas is impeded. A viable
student union is the dynamic center of a campus,
and the lack of it can only increase the alarming
amount of apathy in this University.
On the Main Campus, if there is a desire by a
person or persons to hold an unscheduled forum on
a topic of national or local interest, it can easily be
done in or around Squire. Not so in Amherst, which
has a deadening atmosphere and no place where large

gatherings can occur.
Of course, no change is possible now, since the
damage is done. Nonetheless, I think it is wise tor
students to register their complaints in the hope that
University officials will display more intelligence and
less paranoia in future decisions.

student, I am concerned about the ethics of the
profession 1 am planning on entering. Why is this
design, the Amherst campus, not based on,the needs
of the users, the students, but on the priorities of
administrators desiring to manipulate the behaviors
of the students? It was said in the article on Monday,

this is just so the A&amp;R terminals can be closed earlier

Janna, in Israel. The wedding, under a warm and

this Jewish year so full of tribulations for our
people.
is,;
A great deal of the credit for Mikhail’s release
can go to the dedicated young meij and women of
the Student Struggle For Soviet Jfewry, who had
vowed not to rest until Mikhail was freed.
S.S.S.J. ceaselessly does battle for all the
Mikhail Magers remaining in the U.S.S.R. and now
Rumania
as well as sensitively helping new
immigrants in freedom in Israel and the U.S.A. The

work of S.S.S.J.’s dedicated volunteers not only
produces vital material on Soviet Jews for the entire
Jewish community and items used inside the
U.S.S.R., but also provides an important, positive
Jewish role model for their peers in the west and
within Russia itself.
We have a responsibility to keep S.S.S.J a clear,

Checking book prices
To the Editor.
For years now my jaw has dropped and my eyes
have bulged in disbelief after the cashier has rung up
my books. I’m not taking issue with the price of the
books per/se, rather, it is the idea that there is no
way for people to check on the accuracy of their
pricing system.
Supposedly, we can find out the relative price of
our books in the catalog at the door ot the
bookstore. Tire catalog had the total price of my
books listed at $65, while I was charged $93 at the

Shaba I Moshe

cashier. The catalog lists a 100 page paperback at
S1.7S, while I was charged S6.S0.
Without an accurate price list, how can we tell if
some sleepy bookstore employee hasn’t accidentally
stamped $18.95 on a $2.00 book.
When you question the bookstore managers
they will basically tell you that it is just too much
trouble to accurately revise these price lists. I feel
that out of common courtesy to their customers
(even though we are a captive mcrket) they owe us
an accurate price list.

Food Service profits
To the Editor
The Food Service dining hall in Governor’s Hall
is not open on Saturdays and Sundays. Instead,
residents of Governors have to go to Ellicott for
their weekend meals. Mr. Donald Hosie, the head of
Food Service, obviously has weighed the gains and
costs of the arrangement. Given the scales he was
using, he no doubt read the balance correctly On
one side, he put the inconvenience and discomfort
to diners, loss of jobs to workers (student and
non-student); on the other side, he put the increased
profitability to Food Service.
Anyone who can weigh human values against
profitability and find the human values outweighed
is
not likely to be swayed by humanitarian
arguments. Besides, Mr. Hosie probably has some
humanitarian arguments to offer on Food Service’s
side, such as: “U.B. students should be made to
exercise more,” and
"Buffalo has the best
year-round climate for outdoor jaunts of any area in
the country,” and “A good, brisk haunt before a
meal will build up hearty appetities.” Someone who
thinks like Mr. Hosie could only be swayed by an
forcing
which
argument
demonstrated that
Governors residents to jaunt to Ellicott has not
increased Food Service’s profitability.
I am not, of course, recommending that
Governors residents, while eating at Ellicott, attempt
any such demonstration. 1 am just curious as to how
big a run on salads, deserts, second-helpings, etc. it
would take to demonstrate to Mr. Hosie that the
expected

increase

Talking Heads'
inhabits the edge
by Randall Itt
Spectrum Music Staff

Punk is a pose and punks suppose to hate a pose. It's
a building; on fire. It's my right shoulder rocking forward in stiff,
demented little jerks that can't help themselves from identifying with
the heartbeat or urgency in, around and throughout the music. You
can't munch on The Talking Heads, you've got to inhale them, way
down. And way down is where they connect with a feeling you've had
but never heard before.
It's like the time you were staying up, late. And staying up was all
you knew in the metallic white 4:30 of Hellicott. It was just when the
lights all started to buzz at you; to flouresce and crackle through your
haze,and you became aW»re of a rush of energy, different from the
kind you were so recently bereft of, and this kind takes you up, as they
say. It makes things seem very distant and very clear. It's creative. If
your body could illustrate your mind right now, you'd look like a
demented marionette jerking and smiling like the fool you know you're
not. Sometimes at the very latest, smokiest dawn end of a party, your
corpse will get up and dance like that, and it's very pure and delightful.
That's when you would most resemble David Byrne: lead singer,
dancer, composer, and guitar romancer of The Talking Heads, onstage.
It's

not punk.

Elemental hot tar
But in New York City. Manhattan, where it's almost always 4:30
a m., they're in the living room of someone's apartment and the cool,
glistening sweat of quavering creativity is slipping down the walls. A
frustration is being excreted, ever so smoothly, sensuously, artfully
the repetoire of The Talking
into neat piles of wit and emotion
Heads.
This guy who looks like crazed Anthony Perkins is massaging his
groin and yours with the motion of his electric guitar. He moves in
staccato, cadaver movements which all combine to produce the sound,
at once jerky and smooth. A true lollipop of a girl named Tina
Weymouth is playing bad bass, rolling down hot tar for the boys to
play on.
Elemental urge moves the drumsticks of Chris Frantz, and Jerry
Harrison, new member and ex-Modern Lover, has learned to complete
their conspiracy on organ and guitar. They take raw emotional energy,

Talk, Heads

The Talking Heads were "Visual Arts Students" once, at The
Rhode Island School of Design, before they decided to put it all to
rock. They were originally The Artistics and became Talking Heads in
N.V.C. David Byrne has grasped a personna that's so real, it hasn't
quite grasped itself. They're detached but still enough in touch to play
it for us true and self-mocking at once.
In Toronto it's one o'clock and a guy in the audience yells out,
"I
"Come on Heads, talk!" So they do. In "New Feeling" they say
wish, I could meet everyone, meet them all over again. Bring them up
to my room." And they sing
"Don't Worry About the Government".
And he shouts "Stay hungry, stay hungry (competition is death) stay
hungry." Because hunger keeps you awake, makes you aware like you
couldn't be with a fat meal in your belly.

Red-light screamers

The sound is pop and bounce and sex, but it's the sex of celibacy;
frustration and longing and hilarity. And it was happening at The New
Yorker, a hip movie theater that'll give you the real thing only very late
on a Friday Night in Toronto, where the crowd is devoted and wise and
hungry.

After the opening atrocity. The Scenica, showed us how bad and
boring music can be when sloppiness is the substitute for rawness, the
geniuses of late-night scream released us all. "When my love, stands
next to your love, I can't compare love, when it’s not love." And it
went, 'Tweet, tweet, tweet. Tweet, tweet, tweet, tweet. Tweet like a
little bird.", which hooked us all on their single, "Love Goes to a
Building on Fire", one half of the entirety of their currently available
recordings. But their album is due any second and promises, like Mikey
sez, to be the album of the year. For late-night, red-light screamers who
proudly and creatively inhabit the edge, The Talking Heads are
speaking out.

Jackson blows 'em away in Downtown Room
by Peter Gordon
Spectrum

Music Staff

Staring over the pianist's shoulder, his head bobbing
from side to side, Milt Jackson turns to the next chart.
One would think this quartet has been jamming for years if
it weren't for the sheet music. Lee Morgan's "Speedball" is
being preformed with the same fluidity as it is on Stanley
TCirrentine's album Cherry . However, the slick sax of
Turrentine is not present here. Instead, Rio Clemente is
taking the leads on piano.
Everyone listens in awe as Rio flies up and down the
keys. Both his right hand and his rhythm hand are wailing
along, reminiscent of Oscar Peterson. Ralph Rilies, the
drummer, is up next. He takes two measures and Milt
strays back to his vibes for four himself. The two continue
the standard alternation for a few more bars. Finally,
Jackson swerves back to the head and finishes off the
number.
MJQ leader

Bags (Milt's nickname), is the original bebop
vibraharpist. Dizzy Gillespie first saw him at a Detroit jazz
club and hired him to play in his big band. It was with the
Diz that Milt first gained national attention. From there he
played with the likes of Todd Dameron, Thelonius Monk,
Woody

Herman and countless other greats.

Jackson is primarily known as the leader of the
Modern Jazz Quartet. Beginning as the rythym section for
Dizzy's 1946 48 big band, the personnel consisted of Bags
on vibes, John Lewis on piano, Percy Heath, bass and
Kenny Clarke, replaced by Connie Kay in 1955, on drums.
It wasn't until 1953 that the quartet gained popularity and
began to sell.
The group played for over twenty years, venturing
into many musical experiences. They travelled and earned
respect world wide. In 1974 they broke up allowing the
musicians to again work on their own on a regular basis.
Milt was then able to play "my own kind of music plain,
straight, swingin' jazz of bebop or whatever you want to
call it.
—

Blows 'em away
One of Milt Jackson's greatest assets is his ability to
start swinging from almost a dead start. This style was
brilliantly portrayed in "Feelings" (Tide track from Paglo,
2310-774). Milt takes the head (melody) and slides along
enticing a toe or two to hit the floor. He sways slowly
from the theme and begins to swing. This is enough for
Ralph Rilies as he swings in with his two swift sticks.
Bassist Martin Rivera keeps a safe steady beat as Milt blows
'em away on this "mellow" pop tune.
The mental state of the musicians is always a
prevailing factor when listening to any band. When the

crowd senses that the performing artists are grooving, th&lt;
whole atmosphere becomes more potent. Such was the
case at the Statler Hilton’s "Downtown Room'

Boisterous applause
When sitting out on the solo's. Bags didn't just sit out.
He stayed next to his fellow craftsmen and made it known
he was into the music as much as anyone on the stage or at
the tables. The audience responded with boisterous
applause throughout the evening. This is usually the case at
the downtown rooom. There is always a diversified crowd
and all have one thing in common
a taste for good ja 17.
There is usually a small cover charge (three dollars for Milt
Jackson), and drinks are two dollars. However, if you're an
enthusiast it's a great buy.
Bags' repretoire Friday included "Saint Thomas", a
Sonny Rollins tune from Milt's latest album. Milt Jackson
at The Kosei Nenkin , Miles Daves' "So What" and
"Cherry" (title track from the previously mentioned
Turrentine and Jackson CTI recording). Each was superbly
backed up by the rhythm section and had Bag’s
unmistakable touch In the words of Quincy Jones, "He is
a naturally developed musician. He has perfect pitch,
perfect time and perfect technique on the vibes. I never
have to discuss or plan the swing and the feeling with Milt;
I can feel him all the way, no matter what he's playing."
Try to catch Milt Jackson so you can feel him too.

Beginning with the overture, nimble, racing strings

Shakespear's classic play. Conductor Andre Previn and the
London Symphony Orchestra execute with precision. By
far the popular overture is the strongest asset to the piece.
However, restatement of its melodies in later musical
'scenes' becomes somewhat tedious. Strictly conservative

contrived and syrupy. Vet taken as incidental music for its

Rock?
Actually there are no complaints with Pure Prairie's
double live set. Except maybe they should have resisted
"Amie" (as they did the rest of Bustin' Out). The only
spunk they ever sparked was on Two Lane Highway, and
most tracks on Takin' the Stage are songs featured therein.
Also, "That'll Be The Day" is better than Ronstadt's.-fl./C.

Karl Berger/David Holland, All Kinds of Time (Sackville)
"A warm welcome to evening’s tender place. Come sit

Karl Berger, ringingly vibraphonist, offers the
"Simplicity" of "Perfect Love". His (two fingered Tyner?
Fascinating.) piano touch and balafon's wood rain offers
us the coir "Fragments" of the forest .. . whole rainbows
of delight, banded together by David Holland, although, in
a twinkle, one may find his bass wizardry enveloped, as
well, by rings of kindred runes. Duo offers the fireplace's
warmth and an ember deep intensity. Note the Eastern feel
of The "Beginning", from David's tamboura effect to
rippling waves (chime) bubbling for collective creation. On
"Now Is, D'Accord, All Kinds of Time, We Are" (a title
whichs poems itself!), the duo is very quick-witted. Karl's
bell-like balafon brings African water sprites to bear, as the
final collectif brings steel drum ting of JuJu Man's Street

Side one is better than two; it's got no Carly Simon

Coolidge, Linda Ronstadt, or anyone else. Except maybe
Marcel Marceau. But aside from that ballad (which has
been bled dry), Titus' voice is humorous ("The Night You
took me to Barbados In My Dreams") and emotive (Cole

was a straightforward

rocker lacking both good vocals

followed, but with the same

Next, what I had been waiting for,a blues piece. It started off fairly
well, but got bogged down by the
poor rhythm section. No way
could this song be compared to
his previous efforts, especially on
his newest Columbia LP. "Nothin'

Winter finally cut loose his
classic Rock 'n Roll: a medley of

"Jumping Jack Flash and Bitch”,
where he not only started to get
hot but got the audience to their

To accept latest incarnation of the
Pepperwood Green band is to acknowledge
the many trials and tribulations founding
members Donald Kraus and Ted Lehman
have undergone in the last four years.
Formed in 1974, the moniker was first
used to front a trio with a heart of folk
intensions. With the addition of a
drummer, the band moved on to electric
country and blues. Later variations of
Pepperwood Green swung over to a funkier
feel, complete with pseudo jazz overtones.
Since then Pepperwood Greens have
formed and disbanded, members have
come and gone to form splinter groups
such as Tender Buttons and The Pointless
Brothers.
With the new sextet, Kraus and Lehman
have established a talented and artistic

horde of musiciahs that best compliment
their creative songwriting talents. On each

The Pointless Brothers are a socially conscious group. They believe
David Berkowitz is innocent. Kiss is banjo/guitarist Charlie Ranney's
favorite band. Stand-up bassist Judd Sunshine (and he's not just called
that because he likes Jerry Garcia) would love to play with Johnny
Cash. Fiddle-flautist Peter Seman is a part-time musician, who would
swindle nickels from an innocent woman, given the chance. Guitarist
Mike Stern, who is allegedly "really smart," is reported to have a wife
and three illegitimate children. It's the only way the other Pointless
Brothers can explain his mysterious abscence from this interview and
practice.

Lackawanna inspires local
jazz musician's creativity
by Harold Goldberg
Spectrum Staff Writer

For 19 year-old Mike Smiarowski, the smog
infested steel city of Lackawanna has been
somewhat of an inspiration. As far as inspirations go,
his creativity has not so much involved his physical
surroundings as it has the music of his generation.
Seven years ago, Mike became intrigued with the
overall performance of Blood, Sweat, and Tears and
with the guitar work of Chicago's Terry Kath. He
then began to focus on the improvement of his own
guitar work by playing to Kath's recorded music.
Bad to great

"I was really bad for a year or two. But about
the third year, I got better and started to play some
lead parts," he reminisces. Today he is one of the
finest jazz guitarists in Western New York. Citing his
jazz idols as the inimitable Chick Corea, George
Benson, and Al DiMeola, the guitarist points out, "I
emulate the electric guitar of George Benson and the
accustic guitar of Al DiMeola, but I don't copy their
music. They're just great influences."

Smiarowski had the chance to show off his
guitar work for DiMeola during his stint at
Toronto's El Mocambo Club this summer. And

DiMeola was impressed. "He'll be replacing me in a
year or so. Or be playing with me," commented the
convinced DiMeola.

During
summer months, Smiarowski
practiced and played with backup guitarist, Rob
Gworek, for a show at the Holiday Inn. His hands
ran feverishly along the guitar's neck as he played his
own impressions of DiMeola's "Mediterranean
Sundance." Later, Smiarowski recorded a number of
songs which he gave to various local record promo
men to listen to. Atlantic Elektra Asylum Promotion
person Carroll Hardy seemed very impressed with
Smiarowski's style and is now persevering to
persuade Menperor records to listen to Mike's music.

The Blue Reimondos

The Blue Reimondos are without a doubt Buffalo's best bet as far
a group performing original new wave material. Lead singer/guitarist
Peter Labonnex is the key to their basic molecular structure. Labonnex

pop
The Farfisa Organ. Does this put the group into a class with the
Doors and the Stranglers? No! Try a less cerebral sound like the Music
Machine or the Syndicate of Sound. A trio, the Blue Reimondos,
evolve basic patterns into melodramatic undulations, excursions into
cold stone. Roller rink organ moans searching for an expressway to
your heart.
Drummer Bruce Cree Ton, a Maureen Tucker fan if there ever was
one, and bassist John Bee King are the sliding trumps which hone songs
of spasm into posthumous chants of previous proceedings. A number
of them, specifically "Tarzan Jane Hungry," "Kryptonite Tonight,"
"Leisure Suite," "New Regime," and "Let's Blast Bigfoot into Outta
Space," are gunuine A-sides, pure pop for the now people. And a live
romp is not complete without one of their stupendous remakes of
"Nights in White Satin" or "Batman." Jonathan Richman's "Road
Runner" is also treated in that rare and bizzarre Reimondo's style. Go
see the light.

The Good
If it's the melody of "People are Strange" that dances through the
head of Peter Labonnex, then it's the early street poetics of Jonathan
Richman that is staplegunner to the forehead of the Good's lead

guitarist/song writer/spokesman. Brooklyn born Berie Kugel does his
best to transcribe originality and innosence into the group, hence the
name.
Rank him no amateur, as far as pen talent is concerned, today,

Towering Marshall Stacks smoking pack after pack, the mist

Here's the logic: The parents won't like it, but the bored and neurotic
kids will find it idealistic and chaotic and for that reason they will love
it to death. The music will provide the long-awaited kick in the ass

people's ever loving craniums. Drug Swatika is the drummer, Randy

Since they really know very little (or so they claim), the Pointless
Brothers will accept song suggestions along with their fan mail. They
can be sent to Judd or Peter at 121 Claremont Avenue, or Charlie at
530 Tacoma, both in Buffalo. Mike cannot reveal his address because
then the Welfare Department may find out about his illegitimate
family.

If all you know about blue or newgrass is Kentucky or your fresh
qqarter pound, try to see the Pointless Brothers at one the local venues.
If you're a girl and friendly enough, they might give you a free beer.
But otherwise, it's a boogie that's fresh and loose. If you remember a
band playing in the Allentown Art Fair, it was the Pointless Brothers
(see photo). Get to see them, just in case they go the way of all great
bands (Cream, Beatles, Blind Faith, Buffalo Springfield). It should
prove to be an experience.

"How did the Pointless Brothers come to be?" I hear you asking.
Ah, that is a wonderful yarn in the great American Tapestry. Judd and
Peter could not be kept down on their farm, having seen Quong Ming.
They attempted the student life at Buff State, but seeing how that
would be relatively impossible compared to the glamorous life of a
superstar, they got a job playing a coffeehouse at their former
institution of higher learning. Then they were hired for another job.
Unfortunately, former banjo player Arthur decided to jolt them.
In Seman’s words: "He told us he was gonna move up here, a
couple of days before we were supposed to play, he called us back and
Despondency
said Tm not coming back. I'm not moving here . .
abounded. To fill the hole, they dragged notorious bum Charlie off his
park bench. Upon finding out that he really did not know how to play
the banjo, they informed him "That's O.K., we'll let you borrow ours."
Actually, Charlie had come to Buffalo to take guitar lessons, but Frank
Zappa would just not make the trip up here to teach this potentially
brilliant student. Instead, Mike (who is George Jones' vocal coach)
worked out a few arrangements with the novice, and the Pointless
Brothers played their first bar date in March, 1977. That was in
Pandee's in Depew, where they have remained hired by the
Pandolfinos, "really nice guys" for every Friday.
Since then, they have moved onto such other establishments as the
circus (cor. Military &amp; Grant) on Thursdays, CPG's the last two
Tuesdays of every month, and the Recovery Room (Elmwood &amp;
Kenmore) on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Not to mention the
memorable date with David Bromberg last year in the Cold Spring
Warehouse. But if they had their chance, they'd all like to play with
the Beatles. Except for Charlie

much help.

It is always difficult to listen to a new rock band.
Something doesn't jive. There is no basis by which to judge

Johnstone plays a great guitar, but his singing adds
little to his all-round talents. His voice often has a vague,
artificial sound, and the reverberation added in the studio
give it too much body and too little natural clarity.
Throughout the album, and especially on two cuts, "Meet
Me Halfway" and "Broken Woman," this is evident.
Ironically, the back-up vocals (Elton and Kiki Dee) are
too clear. I was hearing Elton John when I should have
been hearing Davey Johnstone. Elton uses his skilled and
distinct harmonies to create an almost "Bad Blood" (by
Neil Sedaka) affect in the first cut, "On the Slide." This is
O.K. I guess, for Elton John, he has a reputation. But I
would expect more an an individual approach from China.
As a whole (music and arrangements included), the
album isn't bad. James Newton-Howard adds excellent
arrangements of the caliber of those in Blue Moves, his
first major attempt with the Elton John Band. The music
is very pleasant to listen to, and the lyrics have a realism all
their own. There is one cut, "Savage" in which this is most
evident. In it, Bernie Taupin writes:

Sure, Boston and Foreigner are exceptions, but
exceptions are rare. Steve Miller, Fleetwood Mack, and
Boz Scaggs all had to build up to an album that people
could finally accept. It sometimes takes many tries until
the chemistry finally comes together to yield something
fruitful. New bands are, by nature, unique. They bring to
the audience something besides mere instrumental talents.

This should have been the case with China. China is a
brand new English rock band comprised of four fine
musicians: Cooker lo Presti on bass, Roger Pope on drums,
James Newton Howard on synthesizer and keyboards, and
Davey Johnstone on vocals, guitar, and mandolin. The
latter three are members of the Elton John Band. In fact.
Elton John does the backing for them\ Along with Kiki
Dee and Dee Murray, it almost comes off as a sequel to
Blue Moves. And to add yet another spark to the flame,
Bernie Taupin has helped to write several songs. So one

A couple of years ago, a blues lover in Buffalo could go down the the Governor's
Inn on Sycamore and catch top out of town blues acts such as Muddy Waters, Buddy
Guy, or Freddy King. Other nights they would see James Peterson and his funky blues
band playing everything from Howlin’ Wolf songs to B.B. King's latest After a couple of
years in Florida, James returned to Buffalo this past winter and has been laying down his
gritty blues for local audiences. Tuesday, September 27, at 9 p.m., James Peterson will be
appearing at the Tralfamadore Cafe in a benefit for public radio station WBFO.

The only real problem with this album is deciding who
are listening to. Most of the Elton John Band,
including Elton John, are here, so it obviously can't sound
that much different. With the passage of time, though,
they might find themselves. When they do, watch out. We
may be amidst a whole new revolution.

�Sonny

Fortun*. Serengeti Minstrel (Atlantic)

Joined by such notables as Woody Shaw
(trumpet, flugelhorn) and Jack Dejohnette (drums),
Sonny describes "this musical event a success."
Although there are reasons upon which this
statement may be justified, one ought first examine
the effort more thoroughly.

w
m

master musician, Sonny employs various
musical techniques quite effectively. Examples are

As a

the 5/4 and 13/4 rhythms of “The Afro Americans"
and the album's title cut respectively. Yes, one might
say, it's no big deal but it does provide variation to
even the undisciplined listener, which is a quality too
often lacking. In contrast to some of Sonny's other

works, this album is comparitively easy listening
(What, no wild honk-calls, horn rasping, and
breathless wheezings from Sonny et al.?). Partially
correct. Along with Kenny JJarron (Fender Rhodes,
only), Gary King (Bass). Sonny Figueroa (congas),
and Rafael Cruz (percussion), Sonny's compositions
are treated with finesse and power without the
sloppiness too often heard. Melodie tunes such as
"Bacchanal" and "Not all dreams are real" provide
the foundation from which Sonny explores.

Cruz, Figueroa,
DeJohnette had never worked together prior to this
release. The end result, while not being the
powerhouse one might expect from Santana (as on
It

Linda Ronstadt. Simple Dreams (Asylum)
Know what this would be if Jerry Brown were President? "First
Lady Sings the Blues." Apparently Andrew got hold of the rocks while
panning for his own Gold. When Ronstadt is straightforward and sings
those ballads without the weltschmerz inbued by the individual
composers (particularly Warren Zevon, J.D. Sother, and Eric Kaz) there
is no one better. Period. Whether or not she looks seventeen or seventy
is not the point of Ronstadt's career. Whether or not she can handle
the influence of her numerous gentleman musician friends may be.
Since Heart Like a Wheel, the trend has been encouraging
Ronstadt to rock out on at least a few numbers. Unfortunately, we all
can't be Ann Wilson. Especially on the last Hasten Down the Wind,
"Give One Heart" was one of the weakest songs Ronstadt ever chose. It
seems that Linda realized Mick and Keith would provide her with a bit
of better rock than John and Johanna Hall, So "Tumblin' Dice" turns
up on Simple Dreams. And it almost works, until the forced-sounding
finish. But only "You're No Good" could outshine the Holly-Petty
"It's So Easy." I hear that it's the opening song on the current tour.
Ronstadt has got to be wiping the floor with them on it.
But except for those and Warren Zevon's "Poor Pitiful Me,"
(which fails for a completely different reason), the rest of the LP is an
excellent collection of persuasive and lyric ballads. It's nice to see that
she chose "Sorrow Lives Here" by Eric Kaz, rather than "Slowin'
Away," which is going the way of "Love Has No Pride." The
obligatory J.O. Souther cut, "Simple Man, Simple Dream," is sweet in
its simplicity. The Dolly Parton duet-traditional is an example of
something at which Ronstadt is very agile: using the slightly sour sound
of a dobro as the solo accompaniement for her overtly and femininely
medodic voice. "Blue Bayou" is of the genre that Ronstadt favors, and
is the best golden cover of her repertroire.
The problem with the Zevon songs is that they were written for
the treatment given them on Zeven's own record. Without that
electricity, the lyrics lose their bite in Linda's sweet and sticky sauce.
This hat happened in the past with both J.D. Souther and notably
Karla Bonoff. Bonoff's own interpretations have more by way of
emotional and instrumental power than Ronstadt can give with the
power of her voice.
The cover art indicates that Ronstadt can't decide whether she'd
prefer to be regressive or realistic. The music covers all bases. The set of
ballads is somewhat homogeonous, but seems less emotionally put on
that say, "Many Rivers to Cross," or "Hey Mister." There isn't
anything as good as Tracy Nelson's "Down So Low," but it's stilt a fair
vocal showcase. Next, we hear an interpretation of the Getteysburg
address.

Dr. Feelgood Sneakin' Suspicion (Columbia)
Dr, Feelgood play a rare commodity these days
basic teeth
grindin' bear drinking rock and roll. But this album does live up to
expectations. Released earlier this year in England, Sneakin' Suspicion
never really caught on. This was strange because after their previous
—

release. Stupidity, "The Feelgoods" established themselves as one of
the foremost rock and roll bankds in the British Isles. Their overall
sound hasn't changed much since they gave everybody their fity cents
worth in the Fillmore Room early '76. However, their energy level on
this album is hardly comparable to a live Feelgoods gig.
The songs, written by Wilko Johnson, are not worthy of his guitar
playing. Wilko's tunes are by far the weakest on the album. The title
track is not produced loud enough, thus, it falls flat. Because of
differences in direction, musical and otherwise, Wilko quit the
Feelgoods while Sneakin' Suspicion was being prepared for release. I
can understand the conflict. Wilko led the act famous for his gangster
gear and catatonic choreographies, Wilko presented the group's image.
(He even designed the group's logo, a fiendish-faced grin wearing
sunglasses.) But Wilko's musical creativity appeared to be stumped. The

music is in fun and of course there is no "message" but some of these
tracks are so cliche ridden that it borders on plagarism. ("Paradise,"
"Walking on the Edge," and "All My Love," to name a few.)
Nevertheless, most of this album has enough basic drive to make you
carry on till you drip sweat. The rest of the band is very tightly
polished, Lee Brilleaux's harmonica work is excellent, especially on
"Nothin' Shakm'." John Sparks' bass is just what's needed and The Big
Figure, an earnest graduate of the Dave Clark School of Drumming,
supplies the necessities. On this album, Tim Hinkley does the keyboard
work. One of the more prominent of London studio men. Hinkley led
Boz (Bad Co.) Burrell, Mitch Mitchell, Henry MacCullagh, and a host of
others around the Isles as "Hinkley's Heroes." Hinkley plays on most
the tracks and fills in any bf the gaps with riffs similar to Ray
Manzareh when the Doors played rock.
Regretfully, the second side of this album is not at all exciting. It
could be used for music at a greasers bar but that's about all. The best
track on the entire disc is "Lights Out" written by S. Davis and M.
Rebennack (sound familiar?). This is a true rock out song a la Little
Richard that justifies the album.
Now that Wilko has been replaced by an unknown guitarist from
Northern England John Mayo, I'm not sure of the future of Dr.
Feelgood.
Wilko was indeed an asset during The Feelgoods rise but he was
never &amp;ie Doctor. The Feelgoods have never attained the notoriety in
America that they have in Britain and Ireland, and from this release it
is possible that here they will remain a cult band for closet punk
rockers.

�Frozen yogurt is
now very hot item
by Susan Gray
Spectrum Staff Writer

A new taste sensation took Western New York by storm last year
soft frozen yogurt. Its nutritional qualities, sweet taste and low
calorie count appeal to yogurt and ice cream lovers alike.
Although its popularity has recently boomed, frozen yogurt is not
a new product. Originally an East Coast phenomenon, the first stand
appeared in Cambridge, Massachusetts S years ago. Frozen yogurt did
not begin to attract national attention, however, until Bloomingdale’s
of New York City began serving it in 1974. Today, yogurt stands are
springing up all over the country, with ice cream parlors, restaurants
and fast food operations eager to capitalize on the increasing demand.
Recently, a controversy has arisen over the nutritional values of
frozen yogurt. Currently, there are no federal regulations that specify
what can and cannot be put into it, although the Food and Drug
Administration is in the process of preparing frozen yogurt standards.
Its whipped
Regular yogurt is sold by weight; not so frozen yogurt. Air is
—

beaten in and the yogurt is whipped to give it fluffy ice cream texture.
The FDA regulates the amount of air permitted in ice cream
a half
gallon (64 oz.) may actually weigh as little as 36 ounces. However, as
there is no such standard for frozen yogurt, a half gallon of yogurt
could conceivably weigh less than 36 ounces.
Some natural food enthusiasts argue that frozen yogurt is not all
it’s cracked up to be. Additions of sweeteners such as sugar, corn
syrups and fruit preserves, thickening agents lecithin, gelatin and guar
gum, while natural products, detract from the health food properties of
the yogurt itself. A good point
most frozen yogurts are made with
skim or low-fat milk, giving it a 98 percent fat-free content.
At this University, frozen yogurt is available at most Food Service
establishments. According to cafeteria staff, about 12 gallons are sold
each day in the Rathskeller. The freezer machine, installed a year ago,
only holds one flavor at a time, and the selection is varied as much as
possible. Many students lunch on “frogurt,” which costs $.45 ($.48
with tax) for a dish or cone.

Low cal banana
Frozen yogurt comes in various forms and a spectrum of flavors.
Soft, you can have it in a cone or cup, add a favorite topping and it
becomes a sundae. Flavors range from chocolate and vanilla through
strawberry, lemon, raspberry, banana, black cherry and
the fruits
pineapple, to name a few. Frozen yogurt has the advantage of being as
delicious as ice cream with a fraction of the calorie count. It ranges
from 25 to 33 calories per ounce, whereas ice cream starts out at 52.
The cone can be good for you too. Many yogurt stands carry an
“all natural” cone made with whole grain flours. These contain 19
calories apiece, the same as regular or wafer type cones. Popular rolled
sugar cones are 37 calories each.
Soft or hard?
Frozen yogurt comes in a hard form too. Local supermarkets stock
Bison Brand’s All Natural Frozen Yogurt, hard packed in pint
containers. It comes in four flavors
chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and
raspberry
and contains 93 calories per serving
that’s 372 for the

entire pint.
With a little imagination, frozen yogurt can be transformed into an
exciting delight. Toppings of crunchy granola, raisins, coconut and
chopped nuts are favorites, as well as crumbled chocolate chip cookies
and candy sprinkles. Sundaes can be made too, with additions of
honey, crushed pineapple and natural fruit syrups. These extras
increase the calorie count of course, but are a delicious treat if you’re
feeling extravagant.
Freshman Jane Hudson comments, “1 love it. It’s better than ice
cream
not as sickeningly sweet.” Another student cites its low
calorie count. “I can eat it and not feel guilty.”
The popularity of frozen yogurt is growing every day. People who
swore they’d never eat yogurt are trying and liking it. Nutritional? It’s
definitely better than junk food. Delicious? Try some and see!

admissions procedures, according to Director of Admissions and

3264 Main Street
(Across From U.B.)

Records Richard Dremuk.
SUNY at Buffalo
14-15,000 freshman
receives between
applications every year. Approximately 4000 of these applications are
from Western New York (the eighth Judicial District), and
approximately 11,000 are from the rest of New York State. There is a
very small proportion of applicants from out-of-state.
This University expects a freshman class of 2500 students this
year. This means that approximately one of every six students who
applies, eventually attends this University. The guidelines used by the
Admissions Office for determining acceptances are based on three
factors; high school average (through the junior year), a percentile
rank-in-class after completion of the junior year, and a standardized
test score, either the Scholastic Aptitude Test (SAT) or the American
College Testing Program (ACT). Director of Admissions and Records
Richard Dremuk said, “No system is foolproof, but this is the best
!
system available.’’

Students ranked
Applicants are given a ranking number for each of the three
factors. The lowest score is dropped, and the other two are combined
to give each student a final rank.
In 1976, 7800 students were accepted at this University with
ranking numbers running from ope to 6862. This is for the initial
cut-off. Waiting list applicants were drawn from numbers below 6862.
The reason ranking numbers do not equal acceptance numbers is
because ties exist in ranking.
In 1976, approximately 51 percent of the students applying from
W.N.Y. and 55 percent from the rest of the State were accepted. The
factor that provides this University with its 50-50 split between
students from W.N'Y. and the rest of the State is the number of
acceptees who finally decide to attend here. Approximately 56 percent
of W.N.Y. students offered admission here decided to attend,
compared with only 18 percent of students from the rest of the State.

This school popular
“In other words,” said Dremuk, “this University is not necessarily
the first choice for students applying outside of W.N.Y. This University
is establishing a very high reputation for itself, especially in Western
New York where academically and financially it is increasing in

popularity.”
In terms of final

enrollment, 55 lercent of the students at SUNY
at Buffalo are from W.N.Y., 25 percent are from the metropolitan New
York area, and the remaining 20 percent are from the rest of tiie state.

Trie County has the greatest number of students here, with Nassau
County second.
Dremuk stated, “High schools in this state are similar enough that
varying scores and exams could be handled accurately.”
Dremuk provided these figures for 1977 Admissions. Western New
York figures appear first, followed by the rest of the state’s in
parantheses.

enrollment this year. This figure includes undergraduates, professional
students, Millard Fillmore College night students, visiting students,
non-matriculating students, FOP students, and foreign students. The
original target goal was a 35,000 student population, but that figure
was contingent on completion of the Amherst campus.

taxes, Makowski struggled to run

he felt he had no alternative but
to trim the city payroll and refuse
to give pay increases to any city

_HRL

Makowski,
extremely
an
sensitive man, said this hurt him
very much. When he held a fund
raiser at the Statler-Hilton and
had to fight his way through the
jeering crowd of city employees
to enter the hotel, Makowski
came to the realization that he
could no longer be mayor. The
physical, mental and emotional
pressure was too much for him
and his family to take.

The
biggest
and
most
publicized criticism of Makowski
became his supposedly too close
relationship with Joe Crangle. As
the recent Democratic primary
has shown, the people of Buffalo
have had enough of Joe Crangle’s
iron-grip type of politics.
In previous years, an endorsed
Democratic candidate in Buffalo
was almost guaranteed of being
elected. This year, however, it was
more of a hindrance than a help.
Clearly, the people have had their
fill of “regular Democrats.” Stan
Makowski with his 22 years of
public and party service was seen
as being the most “regular”
Democrat of them all. Many
people felt that it was Crangle,
and not Makowski, who ran City
Hall. The Mayor stated that this
was a complete falsehood and said
he considered Joe Crangle a friend
and ally, but not a boss.

Makowski asserted that he
consulted with Crahgle if he
from
softie ; help
wanted
Washington (Crahgle is a close
friend of Senators Humphrey,
Muskie and Moymhan), or if he
wanted to resolve a controversy
with the Common Council, but
that he never took any direct
orders on how to run the city
from Crangle. Whether this is true
or note, the close association
between Makowski and Crangle,
more than any other factor,
spelled the end of Makowski’s
political career.
Ambivilant feelings
The last nail in the coffin for
the Makowski Administration was
the Blizzard of ’77'. As a result of
the city’s poor job of snow
removal (some streets were left
unplowed for two weeks), the
media charged that Makowski did
not run a competent and efficient
City Hall. The Mayor responded
to this in the interview by simply
stating that he did the best he

could, given the severity of the
storiti and the lack of adequate
sno w»removal
equipment.
Although it is difficult to
legitimately blame Makowski for
the consequences
of such a
natural disaster, his handling of
the situation became a major
political liability.

Looking
back
over
his
Administration, Makowski stated
that he had ambivalent feelings.
He felt truly honored to be able
to serve his fellow Buffalonians
for 22 years. The Mayor believes
that during his public life, he had
done many great things to help
the City of Buffalo. In this
respect, he is sad to be leaving
office. However, he is glad to be
able to escape permanently from
the political pressure cooker.
How history will treat Stan
Makowski is not yet clear. What is
clear is Makowski's honesty, his
sincerity and his sensitivity us a
person who truly tried his best to
improve the city.

Hillel news
Starting this Sunday, September 2Sth, the Hillel Foundation's Free Jewish
University will begin its fall classes. Courses in Talmud, Judaism and Feminism, Beginning
and Intermediate Hebrew, Jewish Law and Israeli Folk Dancing are on the list of subjects
being offered by the Hillel staff and selected instructors.
The goal of these non-credit courses is to study the traditions, ideas and literatures
of Judaism in relation to one’s own life as a Jew. They will generally meet once a week
for eight weeks, IVi hours each session, and will be free for University students and staff.
For more information about times, courses and instructors, call Hillel 836-4S40,
come by the Hillel House at 40 Capen Blvd., or stop by our table in Squire HaB on
Monday.

It is not too common for a pitcher to hurl a no-hitter, but when he
does so in his debut for a team, it's even more unusual. But transfer
Greg Fisher did just that in his first UB start last Thursday. Fisher
struck out ten and walked only one in his near-perfect effort against
Canisius. Coupled with the two perfect innings he pitched against
Oneonta, Fisher ended the week with nine innings of hitless ball, and
earned the title of this week's Athlete of the Week. Honorable mention
goes to booter Jim Randelt, who picked up a hat trick in his team's win
over Syracuse.

coach
Peter
Weinreich got the first look at his

team in competition Wednesday
night, and came away pleased that
he had found an answer to the
team’s most pressing problem.
Buffalo also defeated Fredonia in
the scrimmage, 3 matches to 2.
The most important function
of the scrimmage was to try to

find a setter. Before the game,
Weinreich said he had four players
in mind, but when the match was
finished, he had narrowed the
field to two

Staebell
and Trabert
were
impressive and brought the line-up

a cohesiveness it lacked with other
setters. They are both in their
third year on the volleyball team,
so their experience will be an asset
as well.

Weinreich also wanted to see
how the five freshmen on the
team played, and he got to do
that
with one exception. Akemi

wanted
to see, was sidelined
because of an accident which

Tennis team bows
to mighty U. of R.

Golfers defeat Buff State

by Marie Meltzer
Spectrum Staff Writer
The women’s tennis season opened Monday as UB suffered a 6-1
loss to a powerful University of Rochester (U of R) team. Buffalo was
beaten soundly, taking only three of sixteen sets. The players and
coach agreed that Rochester is their mightiest foe this year.
There were happy moments for the Bulls, however. Lynn
Kirchmaier. a Rochester native, teamed up with Lynda Stidham to top
U of R’s Joan Freed and Leslie Feldman 5-7, 6-3, 6-4 for UB’s lone
victory. “It was great,” said Kirchmaier, who was playing before her
father and brother. Stidham, too, was happy, “We really played well
together,” she said.
Mfani Weiss, perhaps Buffalo’s best player, battled Diana Blythe
before succumbing 7-5, 6-4. After Weiss’ narrow defeat, the remaining
singles players fell quietly, including the second singles player senior
Diane Defalco, who lost to Cathy Pickut 6-0, 6-1.
Doubles success
Defalco. a former first singles player to UB, hasn’t played much
since last year and felt tense during the match. “I warmed up all right. I
think it was just the pressure of competition.”
Co-captain Judy Wisniewski and partner Chris Schum experienced
some success against Rochester's Rama Poell and Marty Post. They
managed to win the middle set before losing the match 6-3, 3-6, 6-3.
Rochester won 62 games in the singles as opposed to 19 for UB.
Buffalo’s doubles players, however, held a 32-26 edge. “We have good
doubles players, and our singles are coming along,” noted Coach
Camnitz.
The team has had only two weeks to get organized, and Camnitz
hasn't yet fully evaluated the squad. The team might get some help
from two returnees, Carol Waddell and Suzan Rury, who aren’t in top
condition yet. The next match is Monday at Brockport Slate.

Correction
In last week's Prodigal Sun, a story on UUAB’s
Sound Tech Committee erroneously reported that
the committee had recently purchased S40.000
worth of new sound equipment. In fact, the Sound
Tech Committee has just purchased $10,000 worth
of equipment which, added to the $40,000 worth
already in its possession, makes a total of $50,000
worth of sound equipment.

State University of New York at Buffalo

Legal representation
of students rejected;
issue heads to court
by Jay Rosen
Managing Editor

Group Legal Services (GLS) year-long struggle for the right to
provide students with free legal representation is now headed to court.
The student corporation Sub Board 1 Board of Directors voted
uanimously to instruct its lawyers to proceed with litigation against the
University.

The long expected decision comes on the heels of University
President Robert Ketter’s official concurrence with an earlier rejection
of the GLS program issued by Associate Vice-President for Student
Affairs Anthony Lorenzetti.
Sub Board’s GLS proposal would use student mandatory fees to
hire an attorney who would represent all fee-paying students at no
charge. The University administration has consistently maintained that
the program does not adhere to SUNY-wide guidelines for use of
mandatory fees.
Those guidelines allow fees to be used for programs of
“educational and cultural enrichment of benefit to the campus
community” and for “student services to supplement or add to thos
provided by the University.” The administration feels that the concept
of individual legal representation does not benefit the campus
community. Students felt otherwise, contending that the program at
least fits under the “student services” portion of the guidelines.
Services not acceptable
Seeking clarification of the matter, the University queried SUNY
Chancellor JAmes Kelley for his opinion on the proposal’s legality....
Kelley responded in a letter toKetter that certain programs, which
might be construed as “services” may still not be acceptable should
they violate another portion of the guidelines. Thus, he also felt the
GLS program was illegal. Kelley reasoned that the proposal, while
being a “service,” was not “of benefit to the campus community” and
thus not allowable under the guidelines.
Kelley wrote that “it is our view that individual legal
representation is of such a private and personal nture that it does not
conform to the concept of mandatory fees.”
Clarification helps
Based on Kelley’s opinion’s, Lorenzetti’s consistent opposition to
individual representation, and his own personal view of the program’s
legality, Ketter wrote in his rejection to Chairman of Sub Board, Mftch
Zoler, that “I agree with the decision that the use of mandatory fees
for individual representation is prohibited by the Trustees Guidelines.”
Both students and administrators had expected the decision all
along. Assistant to the President Ron Stein, said, “We welcome the
opportunity to get clarification. Anytime we get clarification, it helps.”
Though Stein would not comment on the possible outcome of the
law suit, students were willing to speculate. “I’m very confident,” said
Director of GLS David Brownstein. “I’d be very surprised to lose.”
Student Association (SA) President Derinis Delia said, “I’m pretty
confident about the court case. We have an incredibly strong case.”
The original program was devised over a year ago. In the time
between its first drafting and last week’s final decision, it has been
rewritten and revised. Administrators raised many objections to the
program, some of which had little to do with the mandatory fee
guidelines. They felt the program would be swamped with cases, that it
would aid the “criminal element” on this campus, that the University’s
public image would be tarnished, that students in general might not
want their fee money going to defend criminals, among other
extemperaneous things.

Investigate before launching
Hence, while the central issue has always been individual
representation, the administration had many objections to the GLS
program.
Brownstein felt that Delia may have been hesitant about taking the
issue to court. “Dennis was concerned with the administration’s
holding back of projects due to bad feeling about challenging them in a
legal forum,”
Delia explained that he was only investigating all other avenues
before launching a court battle that might take over a year. “I was
anxious to try and get everything we wanted and not go to court. I
wanted the program for this year. 1 know how long things can drag out
in court.”
“Going to court is a serious thing,” Delia felt, “1 thought we could
succeed by fooling around with semantics. It turned out we couldn’t so
we’re going to court.”

The most volatile issue in the mayoral campaign is still the subject

�Interpreting James Doohan: Scotty conies to life
by Michael F. Hopkins
Spectrum Staff Writer

Janies Doohan. “Scotty” of
Star Trek fame, spoke to an
enthusiastic audience in Clark
Gym last Friday evening, and in
his oratory, proved to be as direct
and frank as the starship engineer
he portrayed for three years on
TV. I only wish the audience had
added more to the event than

enthusiasm.

Among his first words were “I
know that you’re here, not for
James Doohan, but for Chief
Engineer Stott.” It is wondered,
as all wildly dapped, if any caught
the wee note of tragedy hinted in
that crowd-catching quote.
I could not help but remember
the happenings of a year ago when
Bill Shatncr spoke in this gym.
Shatner, a versatile actor and poet
who (aside from Star Trek and
The Tenth Level) has rarely
received the acting roles his talent
his

essentials of what we, and Star
Trek, are hopefully about. The
crowd, on the whole, was not
there to be entertained by
Shatner’s artistic play, but rather,
to see an ego-ridden caricature of
“their” Captain Kirk. Most missed
the fact that the man was there in
foil dimension.

Mr. Spock. (Do ohan, however, did

discuss the fact
that
Roddenberry and other science
fiction writers, including Harlan
Ellison, had written excellent
scripts* for the proposed movie
only to be rejected by producers
who dubbed them “controversial”
and “unsellable” while at the
same time selling devilbabies
barfing and Mary Hartman

soap-pimping).
He later touched on one reason
for Nimoy’s stubbomess: the fact
that Paramount, thru syndicating
Star Trek, has made millions while
the stars have received almost
nothing. (One only wonders what
Paramount makes on the toys:
“Capture the Klingon, the enemy
of Star Trek!” Really .)
If, as Doohan pointed out,
there are “fans” who fanatically
hate Nimoy for asserting his
self-respect, they are to be pitied
as much as those in the industry
who give no respect. As Doohan
stated, “Don’t hate him. Leonard
has his reasons, and they’re good
ones. He’s a beautiful guy.” He
added to this the point that if the
new Star Trek docs not continue
to promote the creative and
entertaining values for which
Roddenberry and so many others
conceived it, “... then I won’t be
there long. For that matter,
neither, I think, will you.”

ego games unrelated to what is

�Congressmen take action

Israel may be kept
out of the Olympics
A letter signed by seventy-two Congressmen has asked the United
States Olympic Committee (USOC) to block an effort by the Soviet
bloc and Third World nations |o bar Israel from the 1980 Moscow
Olympics.
In order to be eligible for the Olympics, a country must be a
member of at least five Olympic sports federations. Each federation is
the governing body of a sport or group of sports.
The letter, authored by Representative Jack Kemp (R.. New
York), alleges that "under relentless pressure from the Soviets and
Third World nations, the Israelis are' being forced out of the 26
Olympic sports federations, one-by-one. on technicalities." Israel has
already been excluded from the European Soccer Federation because,
the letter claims, Israel is not a European country. “Turkey is just as
near-Asian as Israel,” Kemp said, noting that Turkey is still a member
of the European Soccer Federation.

According to University Police

Pot law won t change much
by Paulette Buraczenski
Campus editor

The new Marijuana Reform Act of 1977, which
decriminalizes minor use and sale of marijuana,
“really doesn’t change the way we deal with
marijuana on campus,” according to Director of
Campus Security Lee Griffin.
The law makes possession of up to twenty-five
grams of marijuana (about seven-eighths of an
ounce) a violation, which is not legally a crime.
“This is midleading in many aspects,” said Griffin.
University Police will continue to deal with, the use
of marijuana in the same manner it always has. “We
don’t tolerate open public abuse of any drllg, and
this has not changed because of the new law,” said
Griffin.
Before the Marijuana Reform Act of 1977, New
York’s pot laws were extremely harsh. Possession of
even a quarter ounce was a Class D Felony,
punishable by up to 7 years in prison. Sale of
marijuana (even handing one joint to a friend was a
Class C felony, on the same criminal level as First
Degree Assault. (See chart for current New
Marijuana Penalties. )
Public confusion
The term “public place” (the key to the new
laws), is surrounded by an air of confusion. “Public
place” includes streets, highways, buses, planes,
trains, terminals, schools, parks, playgrounds,
hallways, and lobbies of buildings, places of
amusement, and “any place to which the public or a
substantial group of persons has access,” according
to a NYPIRG marijuana pamphlet.
“The bathrooms, but not the stalls, and
hallways in the dorms are examples of public places,
but a dormitory room is not,” said Griffin. When
asked to comment on how the new law will affect
security on this campus, he said there are no groups
of undercover officers who patrol the dorms in the
hopes of finding drug abuse, and that “we would not
enter a student’s room without a search warrant.”
While Griffin said that “drug abuse was never a high
priority concern,” he warned that those who use
drugs are “playing with fire” and should especially
be fearful of local, state and federal police.

One interested student said, “It’s almost
impossible to get busted in the dorms unless you
want to be busted.”

Ban begun
Israel has already been excluded from the 1976 Asian Games on
the grounds that security costs would be loo high. The letter claimed
that those grounds were “phony.” In addition. Red Army and C/ech
basketball teams refused to play in Israel last year, and Soviet and Arab
teams refused to compete in this year’s World Chess Olympics, held in
Israel. Israel was also banned from competing in last month’s World
University games, held in Sophia, Bulgaria.
“Most observers are convinced that when the final crunch comes
Israel will be excluded from remaining federations on the grounds of
racism; its opponents using the anti-Semitic United Nations’ resolution
equating Zionism and racism as the instrument to force such
exclusion,” the letter said.
“The American people and their representatives in Congress will
not sit by idly and watch this happen,” the letter continued. The letter
warned that this possible exclusion could lead to the end of financial
and popular support of the Olympics. It furthermore said that the
USOC should be a powerful influence in halting this exclusion, since
the USOC is one of the “principle sources of support for the Olympic
Games and the host for the 1980 winter Games.”

Mayoral candidates questioned
Chief of the Narcotics Bureau at the District
Attorney’s office in Buffalo, Joseph Mardini, said
that statistics concerning the number of arrests
under the, new law would “not be available for
sometime.” Mardini added that the new law “would
nut have substantial impact,” since the guidelines
were similar before the enactment of the new law.
According to Mardini, “major violators will be
prosecuted as major violators.”
Buffalo Mayoral Candidate Jim Griffin said at
the Mayoral Forum in Haas Lounge Monday, “I
voted against the bill. I want to see it (the law]

“personally opposed to the use of marijuana,” but
added that he was helpful in passing the A.C.D. laws
(adjournment in contemplation of dismissal), where
a case is then adjourned fur up to a year and
automatically dismissed, unless the defendant is
brought back to court.
At the NYPIRG sponsored Mayoral Forum
Arthur Eve simply said, “1 voted for the bill.”

Rose, expressed his concern with the bill, “1
question the motives of the legislators in reforming
the law. The way it appears to me, the reform was a
response to a fiscal crisis... to save money on
jailing, prosecuting and petty harassment. Reform
should have been a response to endless research
proving it (marijuana) less harmful than products
available on the shelves in drug stores.”
Another student commented, “The new pot law
is a step in the right direction, but it is very
deceiving. Penalties remain virtually the same except
for when smoking in one’s home. Most people still
smoke together in public places like concerts, in
their cars, and at the fountain area in back of Squire
Hall. I those people get caught, the penalties are still
too stiff. There should be no penalties for smoking
pot anyplace.”

Taiwan already out
Precedent for excluding a nation from the Olympics was
established in 1976, when the Canadian government refused to allow a
team from Taiwan to compete at Montreal. The Canadian government
recognizes only the government of mainland China (which,
incidentally, did not send a team). Kemp, concerned over the
increasing politicization of the Olympics, quoted Baron Pierre de
Coubertin, the founder of the modern Olympic games, as saying. “The
entire plant is its domain. All Gaines. All Nations.”
Information regarding the attempt to exclude Israel from the 1980
Olympics was brought to Kemp’s attention by Joachim Mailre, a
former member of the East German Nordic Ski team, who now resides
in the United States. Maitre has written a book on Olympic politics,
and is working closely with Dartmouth professor Jeffrey Hart to alert
the public to the anti-Israel efforts.

Managing Mitor

When the Supreme Court sits
down October 12 to begin hearing
oral arguments in Allan Bakke vs.
The Regents of California, it will
do so without the benefit of
dear-cut support for either side
by the Justice Department of the
United States.
The Department has filed a
brief with the court that takes no
stand in the most important civil
rights court test since Brown vs.
Topeka Board of education in
1954. The department's neutrality
in the case reflects the nation's
difficulty in choosing between
affirmative action programs on
the one hand and equal protection
under the law on the other.
The Justice Department's brief,
written by Solicitor General Wade
H. McCree. attempts to sketch a
legal line between programs it says
set illegal racial quotas, and what
it
terms
constitutionally
acceptable efforts to consider race
as one of many valid factors in
admissions decisions.

anything less than full support by
the Justice Department could

discrimination against minorities.
The brief argued that the
establishing of specific quotas for
minorities, as the University of
California had done, was basically
unconstitutional. Members of the

reacted angrily to this opinion,
feeling it clashed distressingly
with Carter’s previous views on

Supreme Court hears case
by Richard Chon
Staff Writer
A case currently before the U.S. Supreme
Court could conceivably change the course of
professional education in the United States.
Bakke vs. The Regents of the University of
California is now Being weighed and its decision
may strike down the long standing efforts of the
civil rights movement involving “Affirmative
Action,’’ the policy of establishing quotas for
minority students in medical, law and other
professional schools.
The case began in 1972, when Allan Bakke,
a 32-year old engineer from Halo Alto, California,
applied to medical school. He was accepted by
none of the ten .to which he applied, though he
was placed on the waiting list at the medical
school of the University of California at Davis.
in the summer of 1974, Bakke filed a
lawsuit against the University of California,
Spectrum

stating that he was a victim of “reverse
that
the policy
discrimination," and
of
Affirmative Action was unconstitutional. The
Supreme Court of California voted 6-1 against
the University, stating that “to uphold the
University would represent a retreat \n the
struggle to assure that each man and woman shall
be judged on a basis of individual effort alone.”
The case is now before the U.S. Supreme
and its outcome will have a definite
impact on many colleges and universities across
the nation, including this University.
Court,

Officials here are convinced of the
effectiveness of Affirmative Action, and firmly
believe the policy is achieving some success.
Rudolph M. Williams, Assistant Dean of the
Medical School here and the President of the
National Association of Medical Minority

fcducators, reinforced this belief last week.
“At this school, the uompetitiveness of
minority students has been quite good,” he said.
“Back in the mid-sixties, there had been no push
for minority students, and perhaps then the
University was not sensitive to their needs. There
was an
unconscious
discimination. The
admissions board was making an active effort to
secure the best qualified students to go to

medical school.”

The department's position, the
caucas said, could do “irreparable
damage to this President’s policy
as it relates to 25 million black

people."
Traditional allies oppose quotas

nationwide indecision, the brief

Frank J. Cipolla,

“I don’t think that they were looking at the
total health care needs of the country and the
area that we live in, and the personnel that could

deal with them.”
Affirmative Action was enacted in the late
1960’s, as a result of Civil Rights legislation
passed by the Johnson Administration. It
reached its peak at the medical school here in
1974-75, when minority enrollment reached 10
percent. It has tapered off recently, however,
much to the dismay of some medical school
officials. Still, SUNY at Buffalo ranks among the
nationwide leaders in terms of minority
enrollment.

Williams was outspoken about the possible
consequences of the Bakke case.
“My only question,” he said, “is how do you
expect the caboose to ever catch up with the
engine without some special help? 1 mean, as
long as we keep the same pace that we’ve kept in
recent years, some people will never catch up. So
unless we speed up the caboose and give the
minority folks something extra, they will never
catch up. There will always be second class
citizenship for minorities.”
Williams was optimistic about Affirmative
Action’s future, and offered some observations.
“I think Affirmative Action can work, in
terms of admissions of students into medical
school. I think we’re doing a fairly good job right
now. But the one thing that we must always be
cognizant of and vigilant of, is that we do not
lose sight of our commitment in view of such
things as reverse discrimination, as illustrated in
the Bakke case.”
As things look now, though. Affirmative
Action has a poor chance of survival. Although if
is believed by many observers that diversity on
college campuses is desirable, some feel that
achieving that diversity through a quota system is
not. The academic world has been violently split
between two opposing viewpoints, some holding
fast to the belief that Affirmative Action is
necessary to achieve racial diversity, others
maintaining that it is merely a revenge seeking
device against white males. The answer will prove
difficult to come by, and the alternatives
uncertain.

To the Editor

No sheriff's ID on campus
Erie County Sheriffs ere at this moment or will be soon
seated in Squire Hall to sell their ID cards to those students
who are foolish enough to want them or unfortunate enough
to need them.
Don't buy Erie County Sheriff's ID cards. Don't even
look at the people selling them. The cards and the sheriffs
don't belong in our student union. No rationale in the world
could justify students having to pay three dollars to
supplement an official University ID card, even if that card is
a totally useless piece of laminated cardboard.
It is pointless to say that this University's ID should
include date of birth and a signature. Or is it? Who ever
heard of a university ID without that vital information?
According to Director of Admissions and Records,
Richard Dremuk, such a beast exists on many college
campus. He reasoned that since the date of birth is derived
from student supplied information, the University should
not bear the legal responsibility of backing up it's legitamacy
in a court of law, for example. However, because the
Faculty-Student Association directs functions on these
campuses which do include the sale of alcohol, for that
reason alone, sufficient information to attend those
functions, such as a date of birth, must be provided by the
University on the official ID card.
Apparently, nobody on the ID card committee, made up
of students and administrators, thought of that when the
committee convened last spring semester. Too bad. Now
students are being asked to pay three dollars for that vital
information.
The implications of non-Erie County residents possessing
Erie County Sheriffs cards are ugly and are reminders of
days when every student on this campus was suspect of some
heinous crime. Card applicants must show proof of address,
which will not appear on the card but which will appear on
official police records. Any student who desires to register
with police because he or she goes to school here is welcome
to do so. Fools abound, even at this University. No name is
required to appear on police files unless its owner has been
charged or convicted with a crime. So why bother?
Inter-Residence Council officials thought they were
providing a service to students when they reserved the space
in Squire center lounge which the sheriffs now occupy. They
are really accomodating Erie County, whose police
department must only be too happy to have this
opportunity to register students thrown in its lap.
Think of it. Names voluntarily submitted on file and
money in the bank. What more could a police department
have without even asking?

Pity your narrowness
To the Editor:

In this particular case, the comparative sacrifices
finally been weighed fairly. It is far more
difficult for a Jewish student to miss classes year
after year than for a non-Jewish one to take an extra
holiday. As a Jewish student and teacher. I well
know that there is no great or intolerable "suffering"
in “being forced” to have no classes on Christmas,
Faster, Sundays, etc. So I can hardly sympathize
with Roman's plight. As far as All Saints Day and
Holy Thursday are concerned, I might agree that
these occasions too should be recognized and
respected. In this case, the recognition of Jewish
holidays is not a slight to such others, but a move in
the right direction. (Let me hear no uproar to the
effect that we cannot afford to take time off for
special holidays. There is no pressing need for a full
three weeks off at Christmas. And two months
would quite suffice for celebrating the summer sun.)
Finally, I might even go so far as to suggest. I’at
Roman, that you actually make an attempt to sh a rein the joy or solemnity of a holiday that is not your
own; that you even try to learn and perhaps
understand a little more about those people here and
elsewhere who are not exactly like yourself, l or in
spite of all that you claim to have seen, I pity your
narrowness far more than your “suffering."
have

i am sure that Pat C. Roman will receive more
“comments” on his recent letter than he could
possibly have wished for. Yet, I will add my own to
their number.
I am anxiously awaiting that time when the
ordinary American will leant what justice means.
How long will we go on playing a numbers game?
The principle that the majority rules without regard
to the circumstances is a perversion of democracy
one that has sadly come to be considered its very
backbone. The principle is a dangerous one; if it is
taken in full seriousness, the consequences are bitter
indeed. To use an example “close to home;” should
the university allow no special physical aids to the
handicapped, simply because the majority of people
-

on campus do not need wheelchair ramps or will

miss out on the best parking places? Yet such aid
requires some small sacrifice, some “suffering” on
the part of the majority. I do not mean to liken this
situation to the one presently under concern, but
rather to demonstrate the meaninglessness of the
basis of Roman’s complaint. Neither this country
nor its “state institutions” should be made up of a
selfish, victimizing majority that consistently
overpowers a number of exploited or ignored
minorities. Simple majority rule is not justice.

Guest Opinion
by Paul Friedman, Susan Dix
Gene Chao, Charles Rachlis
As another mayoral election approaches,
Buffalo faces an ever worsening tide of urban
characterized
blight,
by
increasing
unemployment, inflation, and reductions in
health, education and welfare. Aggravating this
situation is the flight of business interests in
search of cheap, unorganized labor. The
proposed layoff of 3500 workers at Bethlehem
Steel for the purpose of maintaining current
profit levels is exemplary of the attitude of the
Buffalo business community.
As long as Buffalo’s populace was able to
offer a cheap source of labor coupled with a
war-fed economy, business boomed. But this is
no longer the case. Due to its inherent lack of
social responsibility, the business community is
leaving.
Some people think they will be able to
alleviate the problems of Buffalo by electing a
liberal mayor. Just what is so appealing about a
liberal? Perhaps a contemporary definition would
answer the question. A liberal is someone who
doesn’t like what capitalism does, but likes
capitalism. He tries to solve the problems created
by the system by supporting the system. What he
offers is a “shortcut.” He tries to change the
system from within. In turn people hope a liberal
victory will be a substitute for building an
independent political movement of working and
oppressed peoples on a mass level.
This is a working class community. Black
people in their great majority are working class.
Added to this are the other oppressed minorities
Puerto Ricans. Indians, etc. What you have is
an overwhelming mass of people who have
objectively no interest in the %oals and
aspirations of Buffalo’s 500 millionairesand their
financial institutions.
A mayor who does not advocate workers’
control is not a representative of the working
class. Arthur O. Eve does not now and never has
advocated the rights of the working class to
control their working situation. One who does
not challenge Saperston’s absentee-landlordism in
the black community or the red-lining of said
districts, tacitly represents these same landlords
and their banker cohorts.
When the Redricks (a black family) were
having trouble moving into a white community
the police offered no real protection, the family
had to deal with broken windows, broken bones
and broken hearts. This situation reflected the
racist nature of the white community and the
Buffalo Police Force.
Will Arthur O. Eve do anything about
Buffalo’s racist police? This is the same police
force who rampaged through the black
community in 1967, who unjustly framed Martin
Sostre and Kenny Johnson, who busted students
sitting in at Hays Hall demanding buses to go to
Albany in protest of the Attica massacre in
which incidentally Buffalo’s armed guard
participated. Will Arthur O. Eve disband or purge
-

This year, like all other years, between 50 and
70 students were dosed out of biology labs. Most of
these people are doomed to take a thorough
screwing from Sl'NYAB. After a brief struggle, they
will change their majors, take courses out of
any of
sequence or even transfer to other schools .
which will make their next few years miserable.
It seems a paradox that an institution of higher
learning should be so determined to discourage
young minds. At present, students taking organic
and biology (mostly pre-meds) who were unlucky
enough to miss out on Tuesday or Thursday bio labs
have no way out.
As a solution, all we ask is that the school invest
a few dollars in the future of America and open a
Saturday or a night lab section.
Buffalo is the college we have chosen. We &lt;V&lt;«
pay tuition and as such have some rights. The school
is simply mu meeting the course demand . . . and we

of the black
through the
organization of community self defense groups.
Or will Arthur O. Eve maintain the racist Buffalo
police who are active in the K.K.K. and
American Nazi Party?
Will the new mayor be able to grant black
control to the black community or will the banks
be able to continue their policy of red-lining.
This is a policy which the major banking interests
have employed for years, a policy in which
bankers draw a line around an area which they
call high risk and therefore do not put funds
into, refusing home improvement loans and
refusing small business loans. The bankers,
needless to say, in no way refuse to allow
members of the area to place money in their
banks.
The question is, can Buffalo’s problems be
solved by anything short of mass protest on the
part of Buffalo’s workers, unemployed, students
and oppressed minorities? Nothing short of
demands followed by action in the streets, the
factories and universities will force any type of
move on the part of big money in Buffalo. If
Bethlehem Steel workers want their plant to stay
in Lackawanna, they will only be able to keep it
here, if they lake the task into their own hands.
The tactics they must employ are not those of
electing a “good man” for mayor; flight of
capital calls for more drastic methods.
An occupation of the Steel Plant, coupled
with demands for the company to open all its
books for public scrutiny, for 30 hours work for
40 hours pay to spread the work available to all
those willing to work. This demand has a special
place here now as Bethlehem intends to fire 3500
steelworkers from its Lackawanna plant and
increase the workweek to six days for those
It took gigantic advances in
remaining.
technology coupled with massive struggle on the
part of hundreds of thousands of workers to win
the 40-hour work week and now Bethlehem
thinks it can take it away.
The loss of so many jobs in Lackawanna will
make its effect felt in Buffalo just as the flight of
most of Western New York’s industry will. The
unemployed will look to the urban center to
alleviate their problems and the already over
bureaucratized, financially burdened Buffalo will
try to ease that load with even more cutbacks in
jobs and services. No one individual can reverse
this situation. To naively believe so is to
contribute to the myth of the American Dream
and the perpetuation of the disease of capitalism
People place their faith in the hands of liberal
politicians instead of taking matters into their
own hands and organizing in the factories,
communities, and universities to oppose the
cutbacks threatened by the state, the city and
the employers. Voting for establishment parties
whether they be liberals, conservatives or
moderates, is nothing but a vote for the
perpetuation of the conditions that exist today
Don’t vote organize!

Good clean war
To the h'.ditor.

The bitter fight to end the production of Ihe
B-I bomber has finally concluded with almost total
success. However, a new death machine has replace
the feared bomber in the Pentagon officials' hearts
the Neutron Bomb.
Time and time again I hear how the bomb will
merely kill people while leaving structures virtually
unscathed. But how will this bomb affect dogs. cals,
and fish? What of all plants and non-humans who
have had no say and have contributed nothing to this
entire nuclear outrage, in truth, Ihe bomb emits
equal opportunity neutrons which can destroy every
living cell, whether they be human or canid. Bricks
may survive (if that means anything) but earthworms
won't. Clearly, something must be said on their
behalf.
Killing living tissue yet leaving buildings intact is
a curious maneuver. This reminds me of an old Star
Trek episode where waring planets simply informed
their opposition that certain areas of the other's
planet were under attack, and, in turn, the latter
ordered all of the inhabitants of that area to report
to extermination units (apparently, non-humans
were spared). This was all good clear war. With the
development and eventual employment of the
Neutron Bomb and its successors, it seems that we
are headed in a similar direction. Personally. I am
distressed, but by no means surprised
Perhaps it is some consolation to non-humans
will die, also, considering that
that humand
non-humans have been barbarically exploited in
every conceivable manner since the dawn of man.

end be desirable. For it seems that the happiness of
all creatures is not possible while we continue to
exist. Nevertheless, for some unknown reason. I

This University's administration has seen fit to
the Talbert-Norlon-( apen complex without
there being suf ficient parking facilities. I his problem
has led students and faculty to park in unmarked
spaces just so that they can get to their classes on
time. I ven though this extension of the parking rows
does not completely block the lanes ol traffic (one
lane is always open) the University Police have begun
to ticket those cars. Now I believe that since this
problem
was
created by
the
administration s
negligence they should instruct the University Police
to avoid ticketing cars parked illegally in the parking
lots as long as the flow of traffic is not impeded by
those cars. Such a measure would serve as an
immediate solution and hopefully the administration
will give parking facilities a higher priority in their
immediate construction plans

HE COULD SAVE YOUR LIFE
MEET 'GUS' IN 355 SQUIRE HALL
LESS THAN ANY OTHER COPIER ON CAMPUS!!
FOR ONLY *.08
—

—

by Wendy Krasnoff
and Melodi Shapiro
In late 1975, six rapes were committed in downtown Buffalo by a
man of similar description and methods. Kenneth Johnson, a black
community mental health worker was eventually charged with two of
the rapes, both of white women. Kenny was acquitted of one rape in
his first trial, but the all white jury was hung over the second charge.
At the second trial, another all-white jury convicted Kenny, and he
was sentenced to 5-15 years in prison for crimes he did not commit.
Although Kenny was granted an extension of bail pending appeal, he
now sits in jail. In a vicious attempt to undermine the growing support
that Kenny and the Committee to Clear Kenneth Johnson had built.
Assistant D.A. Albert Ranni obtained the revocation of Kenny's
probation from a prior misdemeanor marijuana charge. Kenny sits in
jail.
How do we know that Kenny is innocent?
1. Kenny's arrest was due to the pressure downtown business
merchants, who feared a loss in their Christmas profits, exerted on
police for an immediate arrest. The line-up in which two of the six rape
victims identified Kenny was construed so Kenny would stand out. Mr.
Johnson wore light colored clofhing, had a visible cut over his eye.
(received when he was beaten by police during his arrest) while the
other men in the line-up wore dark clothing. Coupled with the fact that
the rape victims were shown photos of Kenny prior to the line-up, the
identification procedure was obviously tainted.
2. Kenny does not fit the original description of a light-skinned
Black man. He is dark-skinned and missing several front teeth, a very
noticeable feature, never mentioned by the rape victims.
3. Kenny’s beard differs greatly from the original description of
the rapist. The rapist held his knife in his left-hand; Kenny is
right-handed.
4. The rapist was farsighted. Kenny wears glasses to correct
nearsightedness.
5. Kenny had reliable alibi witnesses that placed him elsewhere at
the times the rapes were said to have occured. 6. Kenneth Johnson was
never tried by a jury of his peers. In a city where the black population
is approaching forty percent, all of Kenny's jurors were while,
middle-aged and from the suburbs. These jurors were unable to put
aside their prejudices and overcome the obvious partiality of the judge
and D.A.
7. A third rape victim who had participated in the drawing of the
composite sketch so widely publicized in Buffalo, was willing to testify
that Kenny WAS NOT her attacker. The Judge would not allow her to
appear.
8. Throughout both trials we observed, the prosecutor's case was
solely based on the racist defamation of Kenny's defense witnesses and
appealing to the racist stereotypical notions of the black man as rapist,
and incredibility of character. Two jurors from the first trial, who later
joined the defense committee, said the atmosphere of racism created
by Albert Ranni greatly interferred with the course of justice.
In order to better understand why an innocent man was sent to
jail, we have to look at the history of rape laws in our country. We have
to ask ourselves WHY the state has spent over $200,000 to frame an
innocent man.
Rape first became a capital offense in this country before the civil
war. There was no penalty for a slave raping a slave woman and no
penalty for a white man raping a slave woman. After the Civil War, rape
became punishable by death. Statistics show how the laws were meant
only for Black men. For example, in the last forty years 455 men have
been executed for rape: 405 of them were black. No white man has
ever been executed in this country for raping a black woman. As
lynchmobs became less respectable, the pattern continued in the

courtrooms.

Rape laws have also served to degrade white women. Women who
claim to belong to themselves and not a man's property are often PUT
on trial when they report that they were raped. To defend a Black man
unjustly accused of rape is NOT to condone the crime of rape. Rather
it is to understand that the rape charge is being used not to protect
but to oppress blacks. The current resurgence of racism in
women
this country is particularly dangerous in view of our deepening
economic crisis. As long as white people believe that blacks are the
cause of their problems, a mass base for fascism exists. It is only by
working together that solutions to common problems and justice can
be brought about.
What can we do:
1. Keep informed on Kenny’s case and spread the word to our
friends.
2. Build support for the understanding that oppression of any one
group of people hurts everyone.
3. Send donations to help secure Kenny's freedom to: The
Kenneth Johnson Defense Fund, P.O. Box 75. Station “J”, Buffalo.
N.Y. 14208.
4. Stop by our table in Squire Hall and talk with us about the
issues we’ve raised.
5. Call 885-2797 for more information or to find out where our
next fundraiser will be.

FSA hands it over

Sub Board to run
Squire Ticket Office
The student corporation Sub Board has taken over the reigns of
the Ticket Office in Squire Hall after that Office was asked to pay
exorbitant accounting rates to the Faulty Student Association (FSA).

According to Sub Board Treasurer Dennis Black, FSA intended to
charge $25,000 for accounting services. In addition, FSA planned to
charge an unprecedented service fee for events handled by the Ticket
Office. Black claimed FSA intended to incur a $.10 service surcharge
on all UUAB movies and $.25 on all other Sub Board and Student
Association (SA) activities.
The Ticket Office maintains a budget of $49,499 and, according to
Black, FSA’s high accounting fees would have been ruinous financially.
“It was absolutely ridiculous,” said Black. “We were spending half of
our budgeted money on accounting.”
No service charge
Black claimed that Sub Board officials were particularly miffed by
FSA’s plans to impose the service charge. It is his belief that Sub Board
will be able to handle the Ticket Office’s accounting responsibilities for
approximately $8,000 without imposing any sort of surcharge. “Our
goal is to avoid a service charge and not lose any money. Hopefully we
can make it break even,” he said.
Black maintained that FSA was as happy to relinquish its Ticket
office responsibilities as was Sub Board to accept them. He said that
Vice President for Student Affairs Richard Siggelkow was upset that
the organization was losing so much money and blamed FSA for the
problems. “FSA really wanted nothing to do with it,” said Black. “We
have the capability to do the accounting, and the cost won’t be nearly
$25,000 Our fee won’t approximate that figure.”
Black explained that Sub Board has a fiscal responsibility for the
Ticket Office, but has not taken over its operational functions. “The
operational responsibility is still with the Division of Student Affairs,”
Black said.

Record Co-op hours
The Record Co-op, located in the basement of
Squire Hall (Room 60) is now on regular operating

Talking drums of Ewe tribe have own language
by Eileen Rabach

stories

Most often the drum repetitively pounds out proverbs
“A man who is not (like
ranging from heroic aphorisms
to humorous cliches
a) chief, cannot "walk as one"
“Nose says, it is not anything desiring except breathing
not" (Nose says* I only want to breathe). Drum music is
required at births funerals, weddings, at ceremonies
ranging from baptisms to initiations into female societies.
If a village does not have its own fine drummers it will hire
outsiders. In any Case, drummers are paid and respected.
Gideon is highly respected. “I will challenge anyone in
drumming," says Gideon, “if there is jealousy or envy I let
the drums speak for themselves. Listen to the drums and
judge for yourselves." Plastered on one of Gideon’s walls
are photographs of his family and of himself in
performance. Across from them is a trophy he was
honored with by an American school. He gestures at them
without humility or egotism, just with a pride in work he’s
spent his life devoted to. “All my senses go into
it is my profession.” It also holds a value
performing
beyond this. “I don’t like too much talk," he says, but
tries to explain that drumming, its infinite rhythms and
combinations is something he "inherited,” not genetically
but from the culture and gods. Different dr patterns come
to him in his sleep and in dreams, or he hears a rhythm
played and is able to duplicate and then expand it. Steve
Reich, percussionist of new music, who traveled to Ghana
in 1970 to study with Giddon, called him a Master
Drummer of the highest order.

Gideon Foli Alorwoyie is a member of the Fwe Tribe
of the west coast of Africa. Throughout the Volta Region
where Gideon was born are various villages of fishermen or
farmers who understand at least two languages. These are
the Fwe language itself and the language of the talking
drum. The drum has only two tones, but it can translate
any word in any language into its own language of sound.
Its mouth, so to speak, is either the drummer's hands
usually battered and thick, from use
or two nimble
sticks,, straight or angularly hooked. These last achieve
what can only be called the "real" sound, and on them the
whole of a drummer's skill must rely. The talking drum.
Atumpan. is referred to as the master drum; master of a
whole ensemble of percussives and also master of whatever
dance accompanies it. The dance and drum are never

separated.

For Gideon, "the drum without the dance is like a

garden without flowers"
non-existent. Gideon is both a
master dancer and master drummer. First employed by the
Ghanan Institute of Art and Culture at age 19, he joined
the Ghana National Dance Fnsemble in 1967, which is
now the National Dance Company. Gideon's repertoire
includes African tribal dances of the Fwe. the Dahomen,
the Ga and the Yoruba. This past April he and the UB
Percussion Fnsemble and Dance Department performed
some of these in Baird Recital Hall. Because of its
the
standing-ovation
University's Music
reception,
Department and the Office of Cultural Affairs hope funds
will be made available for Gideon to return in the fall and
hold similar workshops.
Gideon has since been signed to a three year contract
as a drum and dance instructor at the State University
College at Brockporl.
-

"Sometimes I would walk twenty, sometimes thirty
miles to hear a certain drummer.’.' This was when Gideon
was ten. Also by the time Gideon was ten he would be
paid as much as a dollar to play the gong gongs of different
or gongons
village functions. Because the gong gongs
must sustain an unchanging time line in an assembly of
sometimes fifteen drums and rattles (“torrow”) each with
a separate downbeat, it is a role usually reserved for older
drummers. Otherwise the master drum signals rhythm
changes and dictates the dance steps being performed. The
key to the dances, Gideon explained, is in their rhythm,
and this “people learn from when [they are a) Baby,”
while draped in cloth slung around their mother's back, if
they haven’t learned already “in the belly.”
Hach dance is based on everyday movements and

as either a man or a "spirit," because of his
“f eared”
drumming feats. *‘We are born on this earth as animals,
look at it. that is how we die." He does not fear death and
knowing it is said that only death that can stop his
drumming he decided to prepare. He set up a coffin
outside his home and surrounded it with drums. He would
perform prostrate, except for his arms which stay in
constant motion, speaking to the drums.
Another "spectacular” Gideon created he performed
here in Buffalo. While most drummers specialize in a single
drum. Gideon played three major drums simultaneously,
proceeded to maneuver them around stage with his feet,
and then, still playing, sat down, raised his legs over his
head, and finally brought his knees to rest by his ears.
Creative Associate Ralph Jones was impressed. “If this gets
anymore personal I'm going to have to leave.” But its
exactly this kind of energy that appeals to AFrican, if not
all, audiences.

of all crafts are innovating constantly. Gideon, with

Before the emergence of Ohana as a nation ( I 57)
different tribes would travel to entertain and compete (in
showing off) to each other. Professor Opoku. whose “field
research" has taken him from the bush along the Niger to
Ted Shawn's studio in New York City, (old how these
dancers would revolve so that they could perform in a
market place or stage setting, lie sees no problem m the
mixing of the traditional with the modern. This is. he
believes, exemplified by Rex Neltleford of the Jamaican
National Dance Company. In Haiti he witnessed how
descendents of Asanti (Opoku’s own tribe) and the Twi
(also of the Oold C oast) remembered parts of their original
dance inheritance and used them to form their own
C aribbean art.
But the language of their forefathers is disappearing in
a thousandth of the time it took to evolve. While giving a
demonstration in Accra, Opoku asked some small children
what a certain and explicit movement meant. Surrounded
by the University’s mowed lawns, they thought the sweep
of his arm, which mimed a machete, represented a father
about to speak their behinds. This particularly disturbed
Opoku because it also indicated that the children did not
notice that he motioned across
not downwards.

Soccer Bulls top Syracuse

by Michael Rudny
Spectrum Stall Writer
The soccer Bulls picked up their first win of the
season Saturday afternoon as they crushed the
Orangemen of Syracuse University 4-0 The victory
was Buffalo’s first ever over Syracuse The two clubs
have been battling each other since 147 2 with the
Orangemen emerging victorious in all four of the
encounters.
After losing to Niagara m overtime on
Wednesday, Buffalo was not to’be denied this tune
around as the whole team played well. “We put forth
good effort and were sharper than in the giune
against Niagara.” commented assistant coach Jerry
Galkiewic/, "The players are learning to work
together and are getting into shape We also made a
few- changes, like the one which moved Jim Rudolph
from the inside to the wing.”
The move of Rudolph was very advantageous to
the Bulls as he scored three of Buffalo's gour goals
and set up the other. Rudolph accounted for the
first half’s only goal, scoring at the I 8 43 mark with
Steve Keeney getting the assist. Keeney worked the
ball from the corner to just left of the net and look a
close shot which was blocked by the Syracuse
netmmder. Rudolph kicked the ball into the net on
the ensuing scramble for Keeney’s rebound to give
the Bulls a lead they never relinquished.

Freshman star
Syracuse applied pressure early in the second
hall but was stymied by the fine play of freshman
goaltender Mark Celeste, who picked up his first
collegiate shutout. Celeste was ably aided by his
fullbacks Wain Reid, Alan Derner, and Mike
“Spider” Allan who blocked many a Syracuse shot
and broke up many an Orangemen pass.
With the defense playing well, Buffalo’s offense
wen t to work. Mark karrer sent a perfect head pass

the Held. Rudolph kicked
the ball over the
outstretched arms of the Syracuse goaltender
sending Buffalo ahead 2-0 “1 knew exactly what
Mark would do,” explained Rudolph. "All I had to
do was kick it in."

Point-blank shots by Karrer and Keeney were
blocked but the hard working Bulls were not to go
unrewarded, for long. Ray Pollydore was held by a
Syracuse detendei and the referee called for a
penalty kick. Coach Sal Ksposito elected for
Rudolph to take this one-on-one shot against the
opponent goaltender I he choice proved to be the
right one as Rudolph scored, giving the Bulls a 3-0
advantage at 22.08 of the second half. “I tried to
catch the corner,” the newly converted winger said.
Pleased, but not ecstatic
Buffalo kept on applying the pressure and their
diligence paid off when I Jon ny Bilka scored a goal
The Syracuse goalie left the net wide open when he
tried to cut down the angle on a shot by Rudolph
The rebound came out to Biika who booted the ball
m past two Orangemen fullbacks. Rudolph picked
up an assist on the goal which was scored after 32;40
had elapsed in the second period.
1 sposito was pleased, hut not ecstatic, about the
play ol his leant. "This was a sweet, sweet victory. A
game long in coming,” he staled. “After we scored
the second goal we started to see that we could put
it together. I veryone played well hut we still have to
play better in order to win.”
The next game lor the Bulls is today against Big
I our rival C anisius. I sposito expects this to be a
good, exciting game. "The players want to show that
last year’s game (I-1 tie) was a result of taking
C'anisius too lightly. They want to show that they
are the better of the two teams,” he said (iante time

In contrast to the shorter teams of former years, this year’s squad
has a respectable height range of 5’6” to 6’1”. The height advantage
will give the Bulls added strength in blocking and hitting. “We have a
very tall team,” said Weinreich, “We expect to destroy many teams
with our height.”
After relying on two strong setters last year (Sue Pels, who
graduated and Amy Ostrin, who transferred), what will Weinreich do
now that he has no one to replace them'1 “Pray a lot,” he said.
Actually, Weinreich has three candidates in mind for the aH-important
job and will use the next few weeks to test them out. Until one is
chosen, LIB will be at a distinct disadvantage with their competition.

Tough schedule
This season. Buffalo will play an expanded schedule which will
have them competing against powerhouses such as the University of
Maryland, the winner of the Hastern Regionals last year. The Bulls will
also travel to Ontario to play some of the strong schools there. “We
have eliminated some of the smaller, weaker schools and picked up
some stronger teams," explained Weinreich. Buffalo will be traveling
more this year and playing in more tournaments, such as the Brockport
Invitational this weekend. “You have to improve the competition in
order to improve yourself,” commented Weinreich.
Buffalo kicks off their season in a scrimmage today against
Fredonia at 4 p.m. in Clark Hall. According to the coach, the team
expects to have no problems with the Blue Devils. “We should win
easily," he predicted. His main objective will be to try out various
players in various positions. “Winning is not foremost on my mu»d,”
explained.

After an outstanding season which brought the team to the State
Tournament last year, Weinreich has an important goal for the team
this year. “I want to be in the top three of the state,” he said.

Women’s tennis team: new
coach molding new players
The new season is already underway for the UB
Women’s tennis team, and it looks like a good year
ahead.
Diane DeFalco is back at Buffalo after a year
off. “She an excellent player.” appraises former
coach Betty Dimmick, who is now women’s field
hockey coach, as well as being Director of Women’s
Athletics. DeFalco played at UB from 1973 to 1975,
before taking last year off. Dimmick didn’t think the
year off would hurt DeFalco. “She’s played a lot of
competitive tennis in the last year, so I think she’s
ready.” Dimmick said.
WeO qualified
Good looking rookies include Mimi Weiss and
Didi Fisher. Weiss, a transfer from Geneseo, is the
sister of Bill Weiss, one of Rochester’s top players.
She won the 21 and under in the Erie County
Tournament of Champions. Fisher, a freshman, won
the novice Tournament of Champions. “Those two

are probably the most promising,” verified Dimmick.
New coach Connie Camnitz appears to be well
qualified to mold this year’s group into a winning
unit. Camnitz has been a member of the East Aurora
Tennis Tournament for the past 18 seasons. She has
trained under Bob Mack, an area pro, for the past
eight seasons and is an outstanding player in her own
right. Particularly adept at doubles competition, her
accomplishments are quite numerous. “She’s done a
lot of tennis teaching; she does her homework, and
she’s not lackadaisical,” praised Dimmick.
Rain has been a problem for the Bulls this year.
Their pre-season scrimmage against D’YouviDe was
washed away Friday. “Our schedule is so tight, that
if we have rain outs, it’s almost impossible, between
the two schools, to get a rescheduled match,”
Dimmick said.
The home season gets under way today at the
EUicott courts today at 4 p.m. with a match against
Fredonia State.

Second straight shutout

Intramurals begin
action next Monday
The intramurals department, an integral part of the University of
Buffalo’s athletic department, will initiate a full slate of events on
Monday, September 26. Kicking-off the 1977 season will be intramural
football. The two-hand touch league, with co-ed and men’s divisions,
will start regular season with games at 3:30 on Monday. This year, all
football games will be played on the Amherst Campus.
To participate in this program, each team will be required to
submit a $10 deposit. Hopefully, this will cutdown the number of
forfeited games because if any game is forfeited, that team will lose the
money it posted. Only students with a current University of Buffalo ID
card, or faculty, staff and administrators with a recreation card are
eligible. Cards can be purchased at the Clark Hall Business Office of
$10. Any participant with varsity or junior varsity experience will have
to sit out one semester.
If you’re interested in picking up a few bucks, you can be a referee
in any of the numerous leagues. To becorfie one, just fill out an
application at Clark Hall, and, if chosen, you can collect a $2 a game
paycheck.

Many sports
The intramural program, which is run by Steve Allen and a group
of five student supervisors, includes basketball (which has 125
vacancies to fill, including co-ed teams), volleyball, soccer, badminton
and (tentatively) floor hockey. The basketball games are scheduled at
the Bubble, Clark Hall, and Sweet Home High School.
Tournament play is also scheduled for the fall. Golf, tennis,
bicycle racing, squash, handball, and a turkey trot are being set up. If
you have any questions regarding rules or entry deadlines, call Steve
Allen at 831-2926.

Tennis team tops Bonnies
by Doa Shore
Spectrum Staff Writer
UB men’s tennis team breezed
an
unsuspecting
St.
Bonaventure 9-0 Friday, to even
its record at 2-2. It was the second
straight 9-0 victory for the Bulls
who had clobbered Niagara
University the day before.
Against the Bonnie’s, the Bulls
won with remarkable ease as they
took five of the first six matches
by

in straight sets.

The showcase match pitted the
two
number
players,
one
freshman standout Tod Miller
from UB and John Tiefcl of St.
Bonaventure. Miller seemed to
have more difficulty disposing of
his opponent than did any of his
teammates.
After losing the second set.

,

SiWJJtrurp,

tying the match at 1-1, Miller
explained, “I’ve played so many
better players, but now I’m
playing his game.” But Miller
played his game in the third set
and emerged victorious in the

match, 6-3, 5-7, 6-4.
In four matches this season,
Miller has tasted defeat only once,
when he played the best player in
Western New York at the
University of Rochester. With his
Roscoe Tanner like serve, and his
great affinity for the game, he
seems like the man to beat in UB
tennis this year.

Improved squad
Even though the bulk of the
squad is made up of first year
players, coach Tom LaPenna
believes he has more strength and
depth this year than last. Despite
the team’s slow start, which

£LSeptem(w 4.9.77.

LaPenna attributes to the limited
pre-season time afforded him to
get his team together, he feels that
the Bulls are a cinch to better
their last year’s record of 8-7 and
to repeat again this year as the Big
Four champion.
LaPenna
believes
that
Buffalo’s relegation to Division III
this year is also an advantage. He
sees it as a godsend that will
enable the Bulls to compete
against teams of comparable
talent.

Though

optimistic

future. Coach LaPenna

of the
expresses

some concern over the lack of
support accorded the team. But
says that measures are being
discussed to try to boost support.
The Bulls’ next home match is
against Gannon College tomorrow
at 3 p.m, at the Ellicott Courts.

Griffin intimated that he had been

officials in Washington. “They

in

want tax cuts, emission standards
lifted without a commitment to
workers,” he said. “We’ll give
them commitments when they
give us commitments.”
The issue of redlining was
addressed and Phelan said he
would attempt to get government
and private industry to work
to ask banks to look at
together
each individual area before they
invest their money. Griffin took a
stern stand on the process of
singling out an area within which
investments would not be made.

Looking to his record, he spoke of
his work to pass a bill banning
redlining.

The platform he would initiate

When asked their opinions on
the newly initiated marijuana
decriminalization program, Eve
emphatically supported the idea.
Gritfin framed his response more
reservedly. He favored heavier
penalties than are now law for
selling marijuana to young people

under the age of 18. Phelan was
personally opposed to the use of
marijuana but respected each
person’s decision on the matter.
One person in the crowd in
Haas Lounge asked the candidates
what would be done to end
certain illegal police practices,
referring to the tragic Richard
Long stomping death in which

Buffalo policemen were involved.
Eve told the questioner that “40
or 50 particular policemen should
never
come
in contact with

human beings. We have to get
them off the street and put them
behind desks where they won’t
harm people.”

Griffin presumed that the
trouble with the Buffalo police
force stems from
the Police
Commissioner, and that it was a
beginning to realign the police
force from the top. Phelan alleged
that the trouble with the police
force was a political problem due
to
the
Party’s
Democratic
influence.
